---

Karkat was fucked. Sure, he was bullied, he had been for as long as he could remember. But he never was physically hurt, they would always just verbally abuse him. And it hurt, of course. He knew he had barely any friends, he knew that he was an asshole. He didn't have to be reminded.

He barely had any self esteem when he took the walk of shame to the hall. Well, it was more like the limp of shame, since he was limping. If only he hadn't stood up for himself, then he wouldn't have been in this mess.

Everything hurt. His head pounded, his legs ached like shit, blood trickled out of his nose, and he was pretty sure he had a black eye, because his eye hurt him like it had been punched repeatedly. Oh, wait. It had.

When Karkat heard footsteps behind him, he didn't dare turn around. He wasn't gonna take any more chances. He might have been failing Math, but he wasn't an idiot. He knew what his luck was like.

"Karkat?" He recognized the voice. It was one of the few friends he had, a boy by the name of Dave Strider. Cupping his hand underneath his nose, he slowly turned around.

"What do you want, Strider?" He tried to sound annoyed, but he was on the verge of tears.

"Holy shit. Are you okay? What happened?" The coolkid's walk turned into a run as he moved towards Karkat.

"I- Fuck. My head..." He rubbed his head with his hand, using the other to keep the blood from his nose from dripping.

"Oh god, come here, let's clean you up- You're limping." Dave swept Kitkat off his feet, carrying him bridal style.

"Fuck, Strider, put me down!" Karkat yelled, but he didn't thrash. He wasn't going to risk the pain it would bring him.

"Nah, I'm good." Strider walked through the halls in search of a bathroom.

"Shit, I need a bathroom..." He broke into a run, turning onto the next hallway. Finally, a bathroom sat next to a classroom. He walked in and put Karkat on the counter, letting his feet dangle.

Karkat was trying. He was trying so hard not to cry. He didn't want Dave to see him cry. How would he react? Would he laugh? Karkat wasn't sure. Tears began to form in the black-haired boy's eyes. And before he knew it, he was crying. And his cries soon turned to sobs fairly quickly.

"Hey, why are you crying?"

"I'm fucking- I'm not okay. I try and endure shit every fucking day. I'm failing three classes and I'm scared." He sobbed, hiccuping every so often. Dave wrapped his arms around the short kid.

Karkat rested his head on Dave's shoulder and sobbed. Dave said nothing and just let the other cry. He didn't care that he was missing class, he would stay with Karkat as long as he needed. They stayed like that for minutes before Karkat pulled away. He muttered his thanks and didn't dare look at the other boy. Have leaned close to the grumpy boy and wiped away Vantas's tears. They were only inches apart. And suddenly they were kissing. Karkat's arms went around Strider's neck. When they broke apart, neither of them said anything for a while.

"We should get you cleaned up." He grabbed a paper towel and handed it to Karkat.

"Put that up to your nose and tilt your head back." Karkat did as he was told.

"Why are you helping me? Everyone thinks you're cool. You could be doing something completely different, but intstead you're helping me."

"Because I love you." And they were kissing again.
