They were fighting again. Walking around the house the house yelling and screaming at each other. Karkat was trembling and tears were threatening to spill over his eyes when he said something he would never be able to take back, "Well if that how you really fell then maybe we should just break up!"
"WELL MAYBE WE SHOULD" Dave shouted back.
"WELL IT WOULD BE BETTER THAN BEING IGNORED ALL THE TIME"
"SO YOU JUST WANT ME OUT OF YOUR LIFE?"
"ITS LIKE YOU ALREADY ARE!"
"THEN WHY HAVENT YOU DUMPED ME YET?"
"BECAUSE I THOUGHT YOU LOVED ME!"
Dave froze; the words sinking in. "I-I do love you," he started, "Don't you ever think otherwise."
"THEN FUCKING ACT LIKE IT!"
"IM TRYING...I'm trying…" Dave was trying to hold back tears as he spoke "I'm sorry"
"I'm sorry too, actually I'm not, I'm done." Karkat turned away from Dave, so he couldn't see his face.
"No. Please don't do this."
Karkat walked into their bedroom and fished a suitcase out of the closet. "I've given you too many chances. I can't do this anymore."
"Please I don't want to lose you!"
"You should have thought of that before you ignored me…" Karkat had packed a considerable about of clothes and a framed picture of the two of them. Dave tries to bring him into a hug but Karkat pushes him away.
"I love you!"
"Yeah I love you too, but that's not enough anymore."
"Where the hell are you going?" Dave asked tears spilling onto his cheeks.
"I'm going to Kanaya's place; don't try to follow me…" Karkat left their apartment slamming the door behind him. Dave slammed his back against the door and slid down to the floor. He had pushed away the person he loved most in the world. How could be such a fucking idiot? He tried to call but Karkat didn't pick up the phone. After what seemed like a hindered messages he finally gave up and went to bed. He fell asleep in one of the sweaters Karkat had left behind.
XXXXXXXXX
Karkat arrived at Kanaya's apartment and knocked on the door.
"Hello?" she asked as she opened the door. Her sight was met with a broken looking boy with bags in his hands. "What happened?"
"Dave and I had a fight, and I know what you're going to say, 'you two always resolve you arguments' but this time was different. I just couldn't take it anymore; I had to get out of there."
Her face dropped and she pulled him into a hug. She knew the two of them were having problems but she didn't know it had gotten this bad. She led the shorter boy into her apartment and led him to her guest room. Karkat put down his things and opted to just go straight to bed.
As he was changing into a T-shirt of Dave's that he had snuck into his luggage, he heard his phone vibrate on the bed; it was Dave, again. He had left at least ten messages by now but Karkat hadn't had the strength to answer. He just let he calls go to voice mail.
He listened to the messages before falling asleep, drifting off to a world where Dave and him were happier than ever.
XXXXXX
The next morning Dave woke up at 8 like normal, but nothing about this morning felt normal. He wasn't in his usual pajamas, his clothes were just thrown haphazardly across the room, but most of all Karkat wasn't a sleep next to him.
The first thing he did was check his phone, hoping for a message from his beloved. But there was nothing but email notifications and Facebook posts. Anger and disappointment filled his chest and he flung his mobile against the wall, shattering it into a million pieces. As soon as it had happened Dave realized he had made a mistake, not only did he destroy his only form of communication, but he got important emails from work on there too. He would have to go out and get a new one, but after he showered.
XXXXXXX
Why hello there lovely people who took the time to read my story! I really appreciate it. I have to say this is my first DaveKat fanfic and I'm a bit nervous that it didn't turn out well, so if you could tell me if you liked it or not, that would be amazing! There will be more chapters to come!
