The Beginning of the End

Embrace

(Kissing later on, I'll give you guys a heads up)

It felt almost as he had been back in that bliss of that memory. This was Love.

Karkat shut his eyes, yearning to relive the gentle touch of The Dolorosa, but Dave sufficed just as well. Maybe if he hit up Kanaya, she could do it for you. Kanaya was practically the second closest in your circle, Dave the first of course.

"Love?" Karkat stared up at Dave who cradled him while sitting.

"Yes?"

"I hope you don't mind, but could you fetch Kanaya? You suffice just fine, it's just..." He trailed off. Dave smiled gently,

"No, I understand." He laid Karkat on the bed and away from his arms. "I'll go get her right away, a growing troll has growing needs, right?" Dave smiled understandingly, and set off to find the jade blooded troll. Moments later, the door clicked opened and Kanaya appeared in the room with no sign of Dave. He must've figured I'd want this to be private, what a understanding boyfriend. Kanaya spoke up,

"Dave had asked me to come visit you, what seems to be the matter?" Kanaya asked in that relaxing voice.

"You know who The Dolorosa is, right?" Karkat looked up at Kanaya, he sat up.

"Yes, I do. I am her direct descendant." Kanaya confirmed.

"Do you think you could.." He trailed off again. Kanaya seemed to get the drift and understand.

"I see." She walked over to Karkat, soon cradling him in her arms. She was sitting on the bed and He was surprisingly light, no wonder Dave could do this. She only knew that fact because Dave had told her what happened, that is why she understood. She was told about the vision. "If you wish," Kanaya began, "I can stand in as the mother role for you." She offered. Karkat looked pleased.

"That'd be wonderful." Karkat was less angry than he usually was. Kanaya began humming the familiar tune, it was so nice. It lulled Karkat to sleep, and Karkats eyes just slowly. Her arms holding you, safe and secure felt amazing. Unlike Dave, with those Karkat trusts such as his lover or Kanaya, he was fine with being vulnerable. Soon, he fell asleep.

//////////1 hour////////

Karkat woke up, still in the arms of soothing Kanaya who had smiled when his eyes fluttered open. Had she stayed awake humming the same time for a hour? What a great mother...He yawned and rubbed his eyes, he was more happier than ever. Now he had a mother and a boyfriend! Kanaya smiled,

"Did you sleep well, Karkat?"

"The best sleep I've ever gotten in awhile." He replied back, refreshed.

"I'm glad I could help." She kept the smile. Dave opened the door and saw Kanaya cradling Karkat still and asked silently if he could come in. Karkat seemed to not mind at all, and welcomed him in.

"Can I just say how adorable that looks-Karkat?" Dave said, teasingly.

"Fuck off, doucheass." Karkat rolled his eyes.

Dave rolled it off, and smiled lightly. It wasn't long until the war began. Times would be more turbulent then ever, and time together numbered. This didn't affect their relationship though, they'd never let anything do that. If they were going to die, they were going to die together, embraced in each other's warmth. Kanaya looked at Dave, still holding Karkat tightly,

"Would you like him back?" She asked.

"That'd be wonderful, I'm going to go to the bar, you coming, Karkles?" Dave asked, and Karkat nodded. Kanaya let go of him, and Karkat got up, brushing himself off. He smiled, throwing the scarf Kanaya made them. She smiled,

Karkat nodded, and Kanaya spoke up.

"I'll leave you two alone." She look happy to see Karkat wearing the hand knit scarf.

"Alright, let's get goi-"as Dave opened the door, he was met with his brother and Jake....making out, moving towards Dirks room. Dave just stood there, and Dirk looked over at his brother, pausing the session with Jake.

"Hey dude, I scored!" Dirk acted like being seen doing that was normal, how ever Jake was redder than a tomato.

"Got your relationship back on track?" Dave crossed his arms, leaning on the wall while crossing his arms.

"I'd hope so..." Jake began. Dirk only smiled at this.

"Tell me what happened, dude, go make out." Dave swatted them away. And they walked off into the room. Karkat stood there, frozen.

"Wh-I- though the-y-" Karkat couldn't get his words out.

"Dirk probably somehow came onto Jake like he always does." Dave shrugged, "no need to be flustered when someone sees
you doing those things, be proud your finally getting laid." Dave joked.

"Oh.." Karkat said, the bar soon became irrelevant. The two 19 year olds stared at each other reading each of their minds.
(Kissing warning)

"We're motherfucking entrenched in this shit." Dave smiled, and backed Karkat into the room, shutting the door, "Gotta try it sometime before the siege, yea?" No going back now. Oh, what a great influence Dirk was on his younger brother. Clueless on what to do first, And before Karkat could say something, Dave had kissed the troll, their lips interlocking. It was like that for a brief moment, until Karkat pushed him away.
"What's up, babe?" He asked.

"Dizzy..." He groaned, using Dave as a support.

"What's wrong? Is it a memory?" Dave asked hurriedly.

"Side affects of the..flashback, I think.." The mutant clutched his head tightly, tumbling into his boyfriends arms. He felt light headed and nauseous. Dave caught him, and guided him back to the bed, laying him down.

"I might be able to fix that for you, Karkat." Dave crawled over the grey skinned troll.

Karkat laid there, feeling like shit, "Go bonkers.." He groaned. Dave smiled, happy to help his lover anytime possible. He resumed the kissing from earlier, and Karkat seemed to loosen up a bit more. His tounge traveled along the roof of the trolls mouth, and behind his teeth, letting the pleasure over run the harmful migraines.

Woo! Sorry I haven't updated in such a long time! I've been thinking of ideas.
