In love with my assassin

Panic Time!

(A/N, sorry for my absence!)

Dave's POV

The door opened to reveal Jane eating a cupcake and looks a bit angry. "We called you and you never answered."

"Oh, I threw my phone into the closet" I get up, walk over, and pick it up before putting it into my pocket.

"Why?"

"Dirk interrupted us."

"Wait, wait, waiiiiiiiiiiiiittttttttttttt, d-- OH"

"Yeah, shoosh."

"Jane, as much as I love you and our chats, can me and Dave have some alone time? Tell everyone we will be down in five please!" She nods at Kark's request and moves on. Karkat leans back on to my chest as I pet his head. He starts to purr a bit as I pet and scratch by his horns. I rub the base of his horns making him squirm around.

"Y'know, we've been together for a year now and you never told me what these do." He grumbles a bit still squirming.

"Because you don't need to know asshat" I lean by his ear nibbling a bit.

"Oh, I think I do."

"No, you don't." He was struggling even more to get away but I held his wrists in place while keeping one on his horn. "Dave, serious, back the fuck off." I understood that I overstepped my boundaries and let him go. "Thank you." I nod getting up, leaving the room quickly and walking into the bathroom locking it. Stay calm, stay calm. It's okay, stay calm.. I start to hyperventilate pacing around the room quickly. I felt dizzy and weak. I sat down on the toilet still breathing heavily and rapidly. I head my arms my nails digging into my skin. My legs felt weak and started to go numb. I heard a knock on the door followed by a soft, "Dave?" I couldn't reply, my head was fogged and couldn't get a word out. Another knock was followed by a worried "Dave?" I panicked even more. My vision was blurry and my nails dug farther into my skin. I heard the voice scream Dirk as I felt even weaker. I tried my best to keep awake.

I heard a bunch of footsteps come to the door and someone banging on it and more screams of my names. My nails dug farther into my arms and I felt a liquid on them. I managed to look down at my hands to see blood on them. I had broke skin. My breathing grew rapidly, I felt like I was going to pass out any second now. The door unlocked and someone rushed by my side, picking me up, and then laying me down on the bed. My breath quickened as I saw everyone around me. My vision became dark and my whole body shut down.

I soon came too with an ice pack on my head and a few pills next to me. I felt a vibration on my body. I look for my phone but that is next to me. I look down at my body to see Karks curled up, hugging me tightly, and purring happily. I sigh in relief. Hopefully, I didn't fuck up. I lay there staring at the ceiling. I heard a few mumbles and looked to see Karkat waking up. I start to panic a bit as he goes wide-eyed and quickly tries to calm me down. "Hey, hey, you're okay, it's fine." My breathing slows down to normal then I sit up a bit causing the ice pack to fall of forehead onto my hand and having Karkat sit on my lap facing me. "Hey, you good?" I nod running my fingers through my hair. "Now, what happened?"

"I... I panicked?" He snorted nodding.

"Yeah, but why?"

"I got scared..."

"Why so?"

"Because, I knew I pushed my limit with what I did, continuing to touch your horns, and I got scared what I fucked up our relationship." He sighed shaking his head.

"David, no, you stopped when I said for you too. Yes, you pushed your limits but that doesn't mean it totally fucked up our relationship. You aren't like to other guys who have touched them. You stopped which is good."
