POV Dave Strider
Today's the day... February 14th... the day I've been waiting for. I'm actually going to do it. I will ask Karkat Vantas to be my valentine.
I've been dreading/looking forward to this day for the past month. Karkat and I have recently grown extremely close and for the past three months I've had a huge crush on him.
I've tried leaving subtle hints here and there but he's yet to actually pick up on it, that I know of at least.
I've talked to my bro, Dirk multiple times and he keeps telling me I should just go for it and ask him out already and even though being scared isn't the Strider way I just can't get the guts to do it.
Everything about Karkat is perfect... I love using my nicknames I have for him causing him to get all pissed off and yell at me. I love how fluffy his hair is and his short and stubby horns and how they just perfectly sit on his head.
One thing I've yet to do is show him my eyes. I always keep my shades on except when I'm around dirk. I know if Karkat ever saw them he would instantly throw away our friendship and treat me like the monster I am. And I just... can't lose the one thing I care about...
After awhile of thinking of how I'm going to approach this I take out my phone and text Karkles.

turntechGodhead seized pestering carcinoGenetistic 9:25 am
I shove my phone into my pocket with a slight smile on my face. I throw on one of my nice shirts with a red tie and throw on some fancy pants (cuz hell to the fucking yes).
I stride my way downstairs and look over to see Dirk and Jake laying on the couch with each other watching some action film.
"Hey you going out lil bro?" I hear my brother shout from across the room
"Oh yea... I'm initiating the plan you and I talked about yesterday"
"Ahhhh hell yes you go get that vantas ass bro"
My face turns a bright red as I look over to my brother who has a smirk on his face with a shocked dirk laying on his chest.
"Hahhh... yea imma go now" I quickly state as I throw my red converse on, grab my car keys, and step out of the house locking the door behind me.
*smol time skip brought to by I don't give a fuck*
I step out of my red truck and walk into the flower store that's near Karkat's house.
When I enter the store a fresh smell of beautiful smelling flowers flows into my nose. I look around giving the cash register a smile.
I finally spot the flowers I'm looking for... Karkat's favorite... white roses... I smile at the thought of how he would constantly go on and on about how 'romantic they are'.
I walk up to the cashier handing her the flowers
"Will that be all sir?" She says perking up and I notice she has a pair of dog ears sitting on her head
"Oh yea thanks a bunch"
After paying I exit the store getting slightly more nervous as I listen to some sick ass beats once I arrive in my car trying to keep calm.
*another time skippp I'm trying my best sorry if this sucks so farrr*
POV Karkat (ooo best you weren't expecting thattt)
I let out a long depressing sigh as I sit cuddled up on my couch surrounded by blankets while watching romcoms. My head pops up slightly as I hear my phone ring.
I look to see who texted me and I see it's Dave and a small smile creeps up onto my face along with a light candy red blush.
Dave Strider.... the fuckass I've had a huge ass crush on for the past 4-5 months... the way he constantly fake flirts with me just to piss me off. His annoying humor and how he acts 'so cool and ironic'. His perfect blonde hair and smile that lights up a room. The only thing I don't fucking understand is those stupid ass shades. He says they're for ironic purposes but I plan on finding out the truth if it's the last thing I do.
After the conversation we had he informed me he's coming over.
Why out of all people would he want to hang out with me on Valentine's Day???
After a few minutes pass I hear a knock on my door and I jump up realizing it's most likely Dave.
I rush to the door and look down at what I'm wearing...
A sweatshirt that's way too big for me and my crab boxers...
"For fucks sake..."
I open my door expecting total regret...
POV the ironic cool kid, Dave Strider
I take a deep breathe in as I approach Karkat's door and slowly knock....
I sit there for a few seconds waiting until the door is opened to a small adorable troll wearing a huge sweatshirt and boxers.
"Ohmyfuckinggodadorable" I whispered under my breath
Karkat looks up at me and his face turns a bright candy red when he sees my outfit and the flowers I have in hand.
"S-Strider..?" He was a complete blushing and stuttering mess... sooo damn cute
"Oh hey karkles... I just uh I brought these for you... I know they're your favorite and ya know it's Valentine's Day... so I was curious if you maybe wanted to go out with me..? Uh, Karkat Vantas... would you be my valentine?"
I give a true genuine smile and hold out the flowers as Karkat stands there unsure of how to react.
I️ slowly begin to panic noticing he isn't having a reaction
"Ya know it could be just as friends not like th-"
"It's about time you asked me out" Karkat said beaming up at me with the cutest smile I've ever seen
I hand him the flowers and he pulls me into a hug in which I hug back
"So what did you have planned exactly..?" He says quietly letting go from our hug and taking in the scent of the beautiful flowers.
"Well.... why don't you just go get dressed and I'll take you on the most romantic date of your life"
Once I say this karkles leads me inside and gives me a nod as he runs upstairs with his big sweatshirt jumping up and down heading to his room.
