Karkat slowly opened his eyes and looked up to find two guys around him, one was on top of him. The oldest of the guys had blond spiky hair, anime like shades on and shirt with a orange hat on it. The other one was the same but instead had flat blond shaggy hair, aviator shades and a red broken record disc on his shirt. The younger boy got smacked upside the head. "Dave never do that shit again, scared me half to death."

The one called Dave just looked at the other one through his shades and gave a small smirk. "And not even when their cute. You won't get away with that either." The one called Dave smirks as the older one laughs, helping Karkat and Dave up. "You ok their man?"

"Fine though it doesn't really matter, you didn't have to save my sorry ass." Karkat could tell from the corner of his eye that Dave had cocked his head and was looking at him weird. "Well I'm sure he wouldn't of cared honestly. Dave goes after what he wants not matter what." This made karkats cheeks slightly heat up but not enough to see.

Karkat knows that he cant show his mutant blood color or its culling time. The only person that knows is his doctor and he helps keeps his  blood a secret. The older guy extends his hand out to Karkat and smirks softly. "Names Dirk Strider and this is my younger brother Dave." Dave inclines his head at him a small wave as if to say sup.

"Thank you for the fucking help but I have to go. I got fucking work in three gog damn fucking hours  and I need something in my system before I pass the fuck out from utter and complete starvation." Karkat starts to walk away but the one called Dirk stops him. "Woah man I think you should get checked out at the hospital first. I mean you almost got hit by a car."

"And there is that word, fucking almost. Yah no fucking thanks, I don't need to go to the fucking hospital. I don't need a fucking reminder that my thinkpan isn't processing like it fucking should." With that Karkat walked off, his hands in his pockets. Karkat knows he didn't have to be an asshole but acting like that just makes him feel like things could go back to normal.

When Karkat got home he was exhausted. Durning the whole incident with the car he had managed to lose his phone and wallet so he got no food and no way to tell his work why he's was a bit late. Karkat sighs when he closes the door behind him, letting out a bit of his emotions. Suddenly their came a knock at the door and Karkat growled. "What the fuck do you-" when he flings open the door he stops suddenly at what he sees.

The young guy, Dave, stands there with Karkats Phone and wallet in hand. Karkat slowly takes his phone and wallet from Dave and looks at them then back up. "Uh thanks I guess but how did you find out where I live?" Dave just points to Karkats phone and wallet and makes a gesture. Karkat just stares not sure what he is doing.

Dave stops and smacks his forehead and tries something else. Still Karkat isn't understanding and is starting to get frustrated. "Dude just fucking tell me and stop playing charades already." Dave stops for a moment, looking a bit hurt. He pulls out his phone and types something before handing it to karkat.

I can't talk

Karkat looked back up and felt like a complete asshole. "Shit dude, Sorry didn't mean to a fucking dumbass, should of figured it out sooner. Fuck now I feel like a complete douchebag." Dave slightly smirks and shakes his head. He starts typing on his phone again and shows Karkat.

Nah its cool man, it happens. Most don't realize till I tell them. They think I'm playing the silent game or some shit. "Would you like to come in? It looks like its about to rain."

Karkat wasn't far off about it and Dave could tell so he nods and heads in. Karkat looks around a bit before shutting the door behind him.
