(A chapter shadowing Karkat and where he ran off to)
A black clothed figure ran down the street of his neighborhood, down to town's square where he was suppose to meet up with Eridan Ampora and Sollux Captor. They had planned to get a gift for Feferi because her dance competition was in a few weeks, like a good luck gift. Karkat couldn't trust the two of them to go alone together because nothing but bickering fits would get done.
"Damn it." panted Karkat as he looked around for the two, "Where'd they run off to?"
Karkat sped walked down the sidewalk and looked through different shops to find the two, they weren't where they were all suppose to meet up and that was more Karkat's fault for being late...And forgetting they we're suppose to meet up that day, but they wouldn't have left either it was their idea. The blond groaned as he leaned against a wall.
"I can ju-"
A thought came to mind, but once he shoved his hands into his pocket he realized he had left his phone at home. Frustration flooded him and it took everything in him to keep his calm. He clenched his fists and he bit his bottom lip, the stupidity that he had was indescribable. Remembering his breathing technique, he closed his eyes and let his fists loosen.
It wasn't that he had an anger issue, it was more over he didn't know how to control certain levels of it. His chest rose up and down in a slow rhythmic pattern, the sounds of cars and the civilians passing him blurring through him. He felt himself start to calm down a bit, his muscles relaxing as his head had the relieve of a future headache.
"I'll just walk around a little more," he told himself, "And if I can't find them I'll just go home."
Getting back on his feet, he began to wander around the town. Keeping in mind that he should also seek out a gift for the Peixes girl while he tracked down the other two. She was quite preppy and bubbly, so maybe something she can wear would be a good gift.
"I've known her longer than you have, and I say she'll like this better."
"Obviously you haven't been updated on FF because she'll like this rather than what you have in mind."
His ears perked up as he heard the two familiar voices, Eridan and Sollux, both having their own quirks in speech. Whipping around, he scanned the area to catch sight of at least one of them. It shouldn't be too hard, after all Eridan and Sollux were both freakishly tall for Freshmen...Or it was the matter that Karkat is short.
"Where are they??"
Karkat walked up and around a bit further before seeing the violet streak that set itself upon the light gold, brunet's hair. He sighed in relief as he saw Sollux along with him, less of a hassle if they're still together. Which is a surprise that they are still together.
"Finally!" cheered Karkat as he went towards their direction, "Hey Eridan! Sollll...."
While he was walking up go them, they hadn't noticed the blond even with the shouting. Their focus was too much on each other, the tension high around them. What made Karkat trail his words was not another silly bicker...But a sudden tension relieving kiss, possible make out session.
He stood there dumbfounded, eyes widening before narrowing slowly. His eyebrows scrunched together and his lips pursed together in a thin line. This sight wasn't to his appeal...Especially if it pertained Eridan and Sollux, but everyone knew this was going to happen sooner or later. Just why now?? Why with him? Karkat stood and stared for a good minute or two before both his hands raised up in the air.
"...I'm done. I'm going back home."
