Karkat has had feelings for his friend Dave for a long while. Ever since they were kids. He was good at hiding how he really felt. Especially to Dave. But Dave never seemed to share these feelings mutually. Since he had been on and on and off relationship with Jade since they were children. But he would always feel annoyed and uncomfortable when Dave would speak about his relationships. Like how he would talk about his feelings for Jade and then Terezi and then for Jade again. But he was never going to say anything about it to him. He just wanted to be a good friend despite his feelings. So Karkat would stay by Dave's side, he would go over as much as he could to hear Dave play his stupid songs, up until after high school when Dave started getting popular. He formed a band with a few other friends and Karkat would tag along as their 'manager.' He liked the idea the he could have the control over that. But he was mostly there for Dave. His feelings only grew stronger as they became adults. But suddenly Jade starts coming to the shows again, and hanging around Dave again. They seem like such a happy couple. Will Karkat be able to keep his feelings kept hidden for the rest of his life?
