Homestuck: Dawn. Dave's match, or is she?

CHAPTER 7

I stared, and stared some more. "Um..." Gamzee blushed...Purple? "Want me to explain it all?" I nodded, and Gamzee began. "I am a troll, along with the rest of my gang, I'm blushing purple because i have purple blood, we all have different blood. Indigo is the highest, red is the lowest, candy red is mutant. Karkat and Kankri have mutant, Feferi was technicaly our queen before Alternia blew up, Eridan is second in line, and i'm third." 

"Ok, what's with the horns?" 

"Oh, well, i did say we were trolls." He shrugged and turned to Dave, "got any faygo?" 

"Wait! What happens with the horns? Do they do anything?" 

"Well, they are very sensitive, and touching a trolls horn is very...different." I raised an eye brow. "Lets put it this way, trolls only touch horns if their in matespritship." 

"Matespritship?"

"It's like dating, for us." Dave cut in, and Gamzee nodded. "Kismesis, is when they hate eachother so much they love each other, and moirails is best friends, i dont feel like explaining the rest, can i go now?" 

"Yah, I guess, thanks for coming Gamzee." Dave thanked him and walked him over to the door. After Gamzee left Dave walked over to me. I looked up to him, how could he act so calm about this? "I.. need some time alone." He nodded and left after giving me a quick hug. I went over to my bed and laid down. Staring at the ceiling, I let my mind wander. I hadn't done it since i was four, because my father had told me, "Mind wandering is bad Dawn, it could get you hurt, don't let anyone know about your special side, got me?" That was two days before he died. I felt so crappy, on the bright side, I had managed to keep my birthday a secret, it was tomorrow, and i had already spoken to my mum. She had told me, she wouldn't be able to come back until tuesday, but i didn't want to stay with dave tonight.   

I decided to get on my laptop, Nepeta had told me to download pesterchum so I could talk to them all. choose a name_________

I typed in  brokenAngels.   No one would get it, but i really liked it.

I sat and stared at my ceiling, so for my birthday, i had gotten... an arrested brother, and my first kiss. I felt like crying. Actually, i did. I looked at the box under my bed, i hadn't opened it in two years. Hadn't looked into the box that held the answers to my pain. No one knew why we really moved here, my best friend killed herself, and my other brother got in a car wreck. I was, no, AM still depressed about it. My boyfriend there was abusive as well, and then he died. Needless to say, i was tempted to open the box. 

I looked at it, did i really want to? Yes. I sat on the floor and pulled the box towards me. Opening it, I looked in. There were pills, and my notebook. My antidepressent pills. I thought about taking one, but didn't really want to. Under the notebook, was a razor. I took it out and stared at it. I put it away, I was stronger than that, I had to stay strong. I went to the window because I thought i heard yelling. Looking out, my heart broke into thousands of peices. I decided i wasn't stronger, There was Dave, and Jade. Kissing, in the middle of the road. I heard her giggle, and watched them walk into her house. I got a text that moment. 

we're over.  Yah, no kidding. I threw my phone at the wall and got the box, I couldn't help it. Tears were streaming down my face. There was a knock at the door, i ignored it. I pressed the razor to my skin one, two, three times before the knocking got to be to much. I cleaned my arm and went to the door. "What do you-" He stepped in. "Well, come on in why don't you?" Karkat walked in. "Are you ok? I just saw...Hey, come here." I was surprised Karkat was so sensitive, he usually acted like he hated me. He pulled me into a tight hug and wiped the tears from my eyes. "We need icecream, I will be back in a minute!" With that he ran to his car and jumped in, speeding off. I ran into the room, threw everything into the box, and shoved it into the closet just as Karkat returned. "Here, i brought some ice- What are you doing?" I jumped and slammed the door shut. "Oh, I just um, was cleaning a little, yah..." He looked at me suspiciosly and shook his head before popping a movie in my dvd player and handing me a spoon. "Why are you so understanding?" 

"I got dissed by Strider to." I stared at him, Karkat? And Dave? Whatever. I took a huge scoop and popped it into my mouth, giggling as i did so, because Karkat was copying me. "So, wanna talk about it?" I opened my mouth for a rant, "That sh*t head! He stole my first kiss, and then left! He's such a jerk!" Karkat just stared, "First kiss?" I looked down, blushing. "Yah..." He smiled, "Strider did the same to me." We looked at each other for a moment, and I don't know why, but started laughing. You know, Karkat wasn't so bad, and he made me feel alot better, so much better that i threw away the box, and didn't look back. 

Okay, I admit, that was a bit depressing, but.......sorry for not updating much! What do you ship more? Dawn & Dave or Dawn & Karkat? Bye! I might update again before the days end!
