-Dave's POV-
It's been a year since Karkat and Terezi have been "together". Me and Karkat have become good friends. So today I convinced him to come with me to get my tattoo. "DAVE, WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING THIS?" He asked me as I took my shirt off. "Because I want a kick ass tattoo." My other friend, Rose, rolled her eyes as I layed down on the leather seat. "Dave, you know this will be on your skin forever?" I only nodded at her as Karkat sat in the chair next to me.
Karkat rolled his eyes and Rose dipped her needle in black ink. When she started, I didn't feel anything but after ten minutes in, it hurt like hell. Tears welled up in my eyes as I grabbed Karkat's thigh. "Fuck! Shit! Ow!" Random curse words flew out my mouth as Karkat didn't flinch when I squeezed tighter. My begs to stop when unheard as she keep going. Karkat petted my head, telling me to calm down as Rose took a quick break. "I need to call my girlfriend, so chill here for a second." Rose said as she walked out.
I looked at Karkat when he looked at my back. "LOOKS GOOD SO FAR." Karkat smiled a bit clearly not really caring. I realize my finger nails were in his skin. "I'm sorry." I moved my hand away from him. "DON'T WORRY, WHEN MY DANCESTOR AND HIS MATESPRIT GOT THEIR TATTOOS, THEY SQUEEZED MY HAND SO HARD I THOUGHT IT BROKE." He rolled his red eyes. He mumbled something under his breath I couldn't hear, I was going to ask him what he said but Rose walked back in. "Let's finish this!" She smiled walking over to me again.
-Few minutes later cause I'm lazy-
I sat up wincing as the pain rang through my back. "THAT TATTOO LOOKS GREAT BUT WHY THAT ONE?" I shrugged my shoulders, looking in the mirror at the tattoo. "It looks great, thanks Rose." She was about to say something but Kanaya walked in. "Hey Babe, Ready For Our Date?" Rose smiled and nodded. "Dave, lock up or your fired." I nodded and grabbed the keys. "HAVE FUN LOVE BIRDS." Karkat said looking at the snake bites. I looked at him and he looked at the black ones. I made sure the girls were gone before pulling out the peircings. "You want them?" I smirked as he nodded his head. "It will hurt, you know that?" He only nodded again making me smile even more.
'He is so cute!!! Damn you Terezi!' I sat him down on the chair I was in earlier and grabbed the piercing gun. "Ready?" Karkat didn't answer and looked at me ready. I took the gun and pulled out his bottom lip piercing his lip. He let out a yelp of pain and pulled away. "DAMN IT, THAT HURT ASSWIPE." I chuckled and wipes the smug off my shades. "You're the one who wanted that. Anyway, we got to go." He nodded grabbing my shirt that I hadn't realized I had off. I put my shirt back on gently and left the store with Karkat. "So wanna chill with me and Rachel, Kitkat?" Me and Rachel gave him that nickname on his fifth time over. "I CAN'T. ME AND TEREZI HAVE A DATE." He bit his lip, wincing loudly. "Go get her Tiger!" The words burned my throat as he ran off waving bye.
'I need him to know I love him...but will he love me?'
