You are the ironic child 

Could you maybe be more specific..? 

Oh fine... Even better you are Dave Strider 

When I left I could see the sadness in Karkat's eyes.... I didn't want to leave him but I didn't want to leave my best bro John waiting... I asked him if he wanted to come with but he denied, Karkat has been acting strange lately, I'm going to figure out whats up with him. 

Soon enough I pull up into John's driveway I really don't know what has been up with John lately he has been really clingy around me, but he said he needed to talk with me and of course I'm not going to let down my best bro 

Soon enough I walk up to the door right away to be greeted with a big hug from John... I laugh expecting him to back away and say "no homo dude" like always but this time he doesn't, he grabs my hand and walks me inside 

"hey John, um you said you needed to talk with me?" 

We sit down on the couch and he sighs then looks into my shades 

"Y-Yea I've just had a lot on my mind lately" 

"dude you're ok right..? you're acting strange and im just a bit concerned" 

"No, no I'm fine really it's just.... Dave..."

"yea bro?" I looked at him with a bit of concern even though he wouldn't be able to tell 

"I- You know I really really really really l-like you right" 

"of course we are best bros i sure do hope you do" 

"No- N-Not like that Dave... Like, I mean like like you...."

I freeze unsure what to do or say.... I thought he knew I liked Karkat....

"i-i thought you were not a homosexual bro..." I laugh a bit hoping that maybe he is kidding, but then I realize he really is being serious 

"I know you like Karkat but Dave I just.... I want to be more than just a bro to you, I want to be there for you... I want to kiss you, hug you, and be your boyfriend... Dave- I- I love you...." 

"jo-john you know... i can only think of you as a best bro and thats it.... there is someone so much better out there for you and its not me dude.... im just... your bro..." 

"Ok- You can leave now." 

"joh-"

"I said you can LEAVE" 

I stand up knowing how upset he must be and just decide it's best if I go... Man I didn't want to reject him but he is just a best bro to me.... I love Karkat... Not like I will ever tell Karkat that though, he would never like me back... I decide to head back to Karkat's house because maybe I can figure out what was up with him... I hope he is ok

I pull up back into Karkat's drive way and I walk up to his door and get ready to knock... But then I remembered that I know where he keeps his spare key so I just decided to use that and open the door... After entering the house I look to see Karkat was no longer on the couch where I last saw him... I walk up the stairs not wanting to wake him if he was sleeping, I look into the bathroom to see if he is there first and I enter to see a blade... I don't think to much of it thinking he must have been using it for something and exit the bathroom, next I walk into his room. I enter to see him sleeping in a pile of blankets, I see he is still wearing the cloths he had on before I left...

I walk up to him and start to attempt to wake him 

"karklessss wakee uppp" He slowly gets up and I chuckle following with an awh... I start to wonder if he even notices if I like him... I mean I have been leaving hints for awhile now... Karkat starts to get up and he looks over at me and smiles, which makes me smile... God I love his smile, he is so perfect... 

"Hey fuckass you're back" 

"ya sorry i thought id just come in because i didnt know if you were sleeping or not" 

"Oh you're fine" 

"how long have you been sleeping for... its 2 pm man... did you eat lunch while i was gone?" He gives me a bit of an empty look giving me my answer but then... He- He lies to me?

"Ya--- I- I ate a-after you l-left" I decide to play it cool and go along with it, but why is he lying to me..? 

"alright thats good, but karkat... um there is something ive been meaning to actually tell you..." He looks up at my shades with a bit of concern 

"Is-Is everything ok... Should I be worried?" 

"no no its alright its a *I laugh a bit* its a good thing i guess you could say"

"Well then share is with me fuckass" I laugh when he shares his nickname for me, then I reach out and grab his hands and look him in the eyes even if he can't see mine... But even though he can't see then he continues to look back at me, when I grabbed his hand it made him lose focus a bit.... 

"karkat i- i" What if he doesn't like me back...?

"i really really like you karkat" I decide not to use the word love because I don't want to come off to strong... 

He look at me with a really big smile but then it fades... 

"w-whats wrong..?" 

"Y-You like me as a f-friend?" 

"n-no karkat i mean... like like.... love you..." Damn it why did I say that... 

He smiles really big and then laughs a bit 

"Dave.... Hehe I really fucking like you to..." I smile along with him and pull him into a hug 

"karkat vantas... will you make me the happiest human and be my boyfriend" I laugh while saying this for how happy I am 

"Fuck ya I will" I continue to laugh and continue to hug him. What's to come next... The start of a new beginning... 

"i love you karkles" 

"I love you to fuckass"
