In love with my assassin

Shenanigans

Karkat’s POV

“So a year huh?” I turn to Dirk who was going through the mail on the table.

“What do you mean?” He sets down the mail and looks up at me.

“You and Dave have been together for a year. How do you feel about that?” I scratch the back of my neck. It’s true, we have been together for almost a year. Tomorrow is our anniversary.

“I feel great. the relationship isn’t toxic and he seems to really like me as much as I like him.”

“Like him or love him?”

“Love I guess…”

“You guess?” I stand there in shock and shake my head repeatedly.

“N-no! I do love him!”

“I’m just pullin’ your leg kiddo. He really loves you too, he always talking about how much he loves you.”

“R-really!” I light up with excitement. He nods and I madly blush. I start to giggle a bit.

“Who knows kid, maybe he will ask something of you here soon.” I blush even more.

“Like what?” I just smiles and walks off.
“W-wait a minute!!” He laughs and shuts a door.

“For fucks sake!! Mother fucking! YOU ASSHAT!” I heard him screaming of laughter. I growl a bit sitting back down on the couch.

“Karkat, Dear.”

“Yeah?”

“I Think Dirk Was Referring To You, What Do You Call It, V card?”

“V card?”

“Your virginity chap!” I go all red faced. Would he? I mean, sure we-- oh god...

“I’m sure they are just messing with ya Kitty, though I wouldn’t be surprised. I’ve always known Dave to be a passionate lover.”

“Why Say That?”

“Well, he always says that he loves to take care of his lover and such so I’d assume he would be passionate.” Roxy stops to take a breath. “Yet again, it is just an assumption.” I nod putting on my shoes.

“I’m going on a walk.” They nod and go back to the TV. I decided to go to a nearby flower shop to look around. One I enter I get greeted by a nice lady. I nod to her and walk around the isles. I was looking for white roses but I didn’t find any. “Excuse me sir, where are your white roses? That is if you have any.” The man turns around smiling at me.

“Well, hey babe.”

“D-Dave!”

“Hey sweets.” I hug him and snuggle into his chest. “Now, you wanted white roses?” I nod “Why so?”

“For you dickwad.” He laughs and hugs me tighter.

“I love you.” I look up at him and smile.

“Love you too.” We let the hug go as he leads me to the roses. There was a whole wall of them, guessing they are more popular. I looked around for the perfect one. Dave has walked off to help someone else. I grabbed a chair, stood up on it, and grabbed the perfect flower. I then look around for more flowers Dave likes. In the end I ended up with one white rose, two red roses, and four red and white tulips. (Idfk) I head up to the cash register ready to pay.

“Hello sir, did you find everything okay?” I nod as I put the flowers on the register. I wait a bit while she scans the flowers and brings up the total. “It’d be $23.50” I nod handing her a 20 and a 5. “Have a nice day!”

“You too!” I have goodbye and found Dave to hug him goodbye as well. I walked home while holding the flowers gently. I grab my keys out of my pocket walking home. When I reached the house I unlocked the door. “I’m just home for a second! I’m going back out once I drop something off!” I grabbed an empty vase and up it one the counter as I set the flowers in it. I slowly poor water into the vase filling it ⅓ of the way up. I shouted a goodbye and left the house once again.

   I enjoyed the breeze of the air and the sun shining down on the Earth. I then started to think. Since Dave was once an assassin wouldn’t he have some killer tendencies every now and again? He’s a person you have to watch after since he sneaks around a lot. He does work at a club and that worries me a lot. He can’t drink during the job, and we’re 19 at that. Plus he’s gay so hopefully he won’t-- I started to go into a panic attack. I instantly ran to my dads (I wrote dead’s and I got scared) place knocking on the door. He opened the door with a smile but that instantly dropped as he brought me inside to the couch.

“My boy, what’s wrong?”

“I-- thinking-- he--”

“Hey, hey, calm down Karkat” I took deep breaths and nodded at him. “Now, tell me, what’s wrong?”

“So, I was walking down the street just enjoying the breeze and then I started to go into thought since Dave works at a club late at night and how he has been sneaking around a lot recently and it just got me worried that he’s been ch--” I cut myself off before I started to cry. Dad instantly wrapped his arms around me shushing me.

“Hey, hey, it’s going to be alright. Who knows, maybe he’s planning something for you.”

“You think so?”

“Well, maybe? What have you guys done today together?”

“He works today so aside from waking up and watching T.V I went on my first walk to a flower shop to buy him flowers. Which I just figured he works at. I asked him thinking he was someone else since his hair was different but he called me babe like normal and said he loved me first and-- I don’t know...”

“Has anyone is the house say something to you?”

“Yeah, Dirk said that he never stops talking about how much he loves me while Jake and the others were talking about him talking my, as what they referred it to, my “V card”.“

“V card?”

“Virginity.”

“Oh, oh my.” I nod. We talked a bit more about the Dave topic and then just talked about what’s been happening.
