String of Fate (Part 2)

I quickly pull my hand away dodging eye contact... you just met your soulmate, don't make him hate you already.
I feel his hand reach for my wrist gently and for some reason.... I don't resist.
I look down to the floor as he rolls up my sleeve and I hear a small gasp escape his lips.
"Hey Karkat.... look at me..."
I look up giving him a pained look and I'm incapable of looking back into his eyes because of the shades that are covering them.
"I'm so sorry..." I say quietly in an almost whispering voice
"I know everyone has their reasons for things. And I know I just met you a few minutes ago so I have no right to tell you how to handle stuff like this but... I don't think someone like you deserves to suffer like this. This may sound completely cliché and absolutely stupid but I want to take care of you. I want to be there for you. I want to help you through the dark times you go through. If you ever need someone to talk to I want to be that someone. Karkat you're my soulmate.... I've waited my whole life just to meet you, and now that I've found you... I won't let anybody hurt you anymore."
I feel tears running down my face as the words he says runs through my ears and I process what he's saying.
"I knew you'd come save me..." I say with a gentle smile.
"I feel like my whole life I've had no one there for me. At most points I thought you didn't even exist. And if you did you'd never want to be with me. I went through day to day with people telling me I didn't matter or I wasn't important, and... I listened to them. I even planned a date that I was going to- I just... I still don't think I'm worth it... I'm a stupid low blood in which no one wants anything to do with... it's like cutting myself was the only way I was capable of feeling something..." At this point I was completely breaking down. I was sobbing holding my hands in my face.
"Can I help you..?" Im assuming he's looking at me as he tries taking his hands in mine.
I give a gentle nod knowing I need support like this more than anything right now.
After he helps me bandage my wrist up we decide to just skip the rest of the school day because hell... it isn't every day you find the person you're supposed to spend the rest of your life with.
"So were did you want to go?" He said looking down at me
"Umm well we could go down to the park that's by my house... I'd like to get to know you more..."
He gave a soft smile and nodded
"So tell me about yourself while we walk"
"Well... I grew up with my older brother because I never really knew my parents I guess they died when I was really little which never bothered me too much... at least not like it affected my brother.. We live in an appartment together with his boyfriend and soulmate Cronus. He's really sweet and I've always viewed him as a different older brother figure that's been there for me when I needed him most. He makes my brother happy which makes me happy... I've never really had any friends people have just always picked on me for not having found my soulmate or my blood color. I love watching romcoms because those are the fucking bomb." As I say the last part I hear dave laugh
"Well what about you fuckass? And what's with those dumbass shades it's kinda douche like to constantly wear them inside."
"They're actually for ironic purposes. And by the way I love the nickname how about I try coming up with a few nicknames for you? We could useee kitkat, karkles, kitten, cutie, kar- "
"I'm going to stop you right fucking there. Don't you even dare with those dumbass nicknames. Karkat Vantas. Use the name correctly or I'll beat the shit out of you" I add in as we both laugh
We arrive to the park and I decide to take a seat on the swing and Dave joins me.
He looks as if he's about to start talking but before he does he intertwines his hand with mine and a light blush appears on my face.
"Basically... like you, I've lived with my older bro Dirk most of my life. When I was a kid my dad was always drunk. He didn't give two shits about us and every night he'd come home he would beat the shit out of either me or my mom. My brother always tried to stop it but failed. When I was around 10 we moved out and went to go live with my mothers mom down in Texas. My mom never met her soulmate... it wasn't my dad... and it has always been her dream. After we moved down to Texas things got a lot better. The school I went to was decent and I had a good group of friends but then, my mom got sick. She was diagnosed with leukemia and didn't make it. She died when I was 16. My moms last words to me was that she wanted me to find my happiness. She wanted me to find my soulmate and make them feel like the most important thing in the world. I never dated before or after she died because I just wanted to live he dream she never got to live. After about a year or two my brother and I moved down here. I started attending this school... my brother recently found his soulmate Jake. I noticed ever since I moved down here my string started getting longer and longer and it gave me hope... I saw you in the hallway today and it was like my heart just stopped. I saw that fucking jerk Eridan hitting you and bullying alone pissed me off but this was just different. But right now I'm more then happy I found you and I just..." He stops mid-way through his sentence and slowly lifts his shades off his head.
I stare into the beauty of his crimson red eyes.
"Ohmygod..."
"I know... I'm like a freak... it's why I always keep them on it's just... not normal..."
"They're beautiful..." He looks into my eyes and for once in the past hours I've been with him I'm able to look back... I stare in awe and he slowly inches his face towards mine....
Before I knew it our lips were connected as we both sat on the old rusty swings at the playground. And for once in my life.... I felt joy... I never wanted this moment to end because I knew... he was the one that was to complete me. Everything about the pain I had felt before this moment just vanished. I could care less hearing the things people told me or the way they would push me to the ground because just the way he looked at me... let me know... I was more then enough.
