(the above song is what was playing. the title is also named after what i was doing while writing this.)

You are now the only and only Dave Vantas-Strider.

And you are alone.

Well, not really, Karkat is right next to you, but he's doing his own thing.

Kara is at practice for the final time, and you kinda miss the little kiddo. She is a ball of energy, ready to bust at any moment, which is every moment that she's awake.

Karkat sits down next to you on the couch and lies his head on your shoulder. He takes out your right earbud and tries to put it in his ear. You snatch it out of his hands.

"What?" Karkat stares at you.

"I'm listening."

"Listening to what?" Karkat responds.

"Music."

"What music?"

"Music little trolls shouldn't be listening to." You smirk.

"I am an adult, Dave. I can listen to whatever the hell I want. Now gimme the ear bud."

"No." You simply respond. He tries to reach for it, but you put it in the air.

"I want to listen!"

"I said no."

You two continue fighting until the ear buds unplug by force. The music blasts at the most awkward time.

"... Dave?"

"Yeah?"

"Put the wire back in."

"To late now." You shrug.

"Put the cord back in your phone!"

"No, KK. I am an adult."

"An irresponsible one." Karkat grumbles.

"Did you just say what I thought you said?" you hiss.

"N-no!" Karkat stutters.

You shake your head and make a tsk sound. "Such a shame I have to do this."

"Do whA- DAVE STOP! NO!"

You start tickling your small husband, while he erupts in wild laughter. His voice carries around the house, echoing back into your ears as he lays down on the couch, desperately trying to push you away. You keep tickling him, to the point where Karkat is screaming bloody murder for your mercy. You continue anyway, because you're a complete douchebag. Karkat manages to push you away, and he wipes away his transparent-like red tears.

"Holy shit, don't ever do that again."

You raise an eyebrow and Karkat sighs, shaking his head. "I hate you, but I love you."

"You're the one that started this." You smile.

Karkat takes off your shades and kisses you, staring into your red eyes. "It was worth it though."

You can feel your face heating up a little before you turn away. "Whatever."
