Bruises and Honey Bees

GET UP AND GET GOING

I stop crying and mituna helps me up. I ask him not to tell dad and he agrees. After a few minutes of calming myself I finally get up. It also takes some time to convince mituna that I'm fine, but adventually he leaves back to his room.

I sigh getting back on my bed and laying down. Finding nothing to do I decide to start my day. I search the house for the keys to the old car stumbbling apon a secret closet full of different things I seal off for later adventures.

I find the car keys in the junk drawer. The car takes a few trys to start but it still works smoothly against all odds. I left my dad a note explaining why I took the car and that I would be back later that night but would know the exact time and that I had my phone.

I adjust the seat foward. Damn did I shrink?? Or maybe its because I haven't been sitting up as stait as I had in high school. Shit dude now I feel short I mean I'm 5'7 im not that short. The car is a freat model, a yellow 1967 shift-stick mustang convertible. Heck its the best car I've ever drove.

I back out of the drive way on my way to KKs house, will he ever remeber me? Stop it of course he remembers you!  You haven't seen him since New Years.... just after collage. maybe he got a little taller? Pffff what are you talking about KKs as short as a bean he couldn't have grown too much.

I pay more attention to the road turning on the radio finding a god station and listening along. I pull up to his hive and stop the car taking a deep breath in and gathering all the courage I could and exit the car.

I walk up to his hive (apartment) and knocked on the door. There was no reply but then suddenly, after some time there was a few "OW OK IM COMING!s" and a couple "HOLD ONs". I can't help but laugh to myself. I go to knock again but I'm cut off by the door swinging open.

"WHO THE FUCK IS AT MY DOOR WHEN IM TRYING TO-" "h-hey KK" "OH MY GOG SOLLUX!" He squeezes me with a tight embrace. I cam feel my ribbs cracking and air escaping me "I THOUGHT YOU WERE DEAD!" I pat his shoulder a couple times "c-can you put me down? II cant breath!" "OH SHIT"

he sets me down and looks at me concerned "ARE YOU ALRIGHT?" "Ii'm ok KK ju2t a biit  Bruii2ed" "*deep sigh* I HAVENT SEEN YOU IN YEARS AND THE FIRST TIME I SEE YOU IF AFTER YOU'RE BEATEN TO A PULP.. SMOOTH CAPTOR" "2orry" I laugh awkwardly he's about 2 inches taller than me! (Sollux is smol = smallux)

I stare up at him and he stares back at me he look annoyed but he's really worried, I've know him long enough to tell what his real emotions are. It a real shame people acually belive his asshole font "2o KK Ii wa2 wonderiing iif you would liike 2 head back wiith me Ii have 2 reintrodu2e my2elf 2 everyone.. Ii'm really 2orry Ii 2toped talkiing 2 you guy2...  A lot ha2 happened between me and "YC" and ii dont know how ii let hiim tear me away from you guy2, iim 2orry"

He sighs even louder "SOLLUX ITS FINE I UNDERSTAND BUT YOU WERE AN ABSOLUTE IMBISILL NOT TO TELL ANYONE ABOUT IT. IF YOU HAD ANY PROBLEMS YOU KNOW YOU COULD HAVE TALKED TO ME.." I nod and I smile a little "ii know.." "GOOD"  I smile at him showing teeth which i rarely ever do and he does the 'so not forgiving you but secretly I do' frown hes known for.

I laugh and he blushes a bit and hugs me. I hug back then he shoves me back coughing. I smile and laugh, just like we were kids. He always would get awkward wgen ever he showed he cared and he only ever really showed me. Its sweet.

I remeber what I had planned and I walk towards the car "now come on giigantua get iin the car" he scoffs and gets in the car flashing a slight smile. I smile more a soft yellow forms on my cheeks and I start the car and drive off.
