Summary: What happens when Karkat and Sollux go to a party and end up getting a little closer then they should? How will this effect their lives and how will high school be if word ever gets out?
"Hey KK wait up!" came the voice of none other than Sollux.
Karkat, the hero of this story turned around to see the older boy as usual. He was on the taller side for guys his age but sadly he was also on the thin side too. He was tall and lanky, not the best combination but Karkat couldn't judge him for that. Sollux had a nerdy personality too well mostly nerdy. Sollux did seem to have a bit of a bad boy streak for a nerd but Karkat just assumed that was because of Sollux's current girlfriend. Aradia. Aradia and KK, as Sollux called Karkat, were not on the best of terms. The reason for them not getting along was simple, Sollux. Karkat never outright stated it but he liked Sollux, almost more than a guy should like another guy.
Yes, Karkat had a crush on Sollux. Karkat had always known he was different when he was growing up. All the other boys in elementary school had been interested in playing ball games on the black top or running around with their friends and getting hurt. Karkat had been interested in Music, Choir, and Band. Karkat was a trumpet player in the band. That wasn't so bad but he was also the only guy flute player. He had been made fun of for it but he just shrugged it off and never complained. When he got to middle school things didn't get much better. Yes he had met Sollux and became best friends but the bullying also got worse. Karkat had stayed in band with his flute and occasionally the trumpet but he began to branch out to performing arts. Karkat had begun a tradition of joining the school musical. He wasn't the best of actors but he had the voice and soon was one of the top actors in the school. Because KK was interested in Music and not sports as all the other boys were the bullying got worse.
High school wasn't much different. Karkat continued Band and the Musical but also begun to excel in academics. Karkat was a straight A student and had had all honors classes. This was a first for Karkat but he accepted his straight A's with open arms. Sollux on the other hand was always and will always be a computer nerd. Sollux was also a straight A student but didn't level that out by socializing. Sollux had always been a little anti-social. Well … That was until Aradia came into his life. Oh Aradia. Karkat couldn't stand the sight of Aradia. She was one of Rose Lalonde's friends. Rose Lalonde was the popular blonde of the school. She had looks, smarts, friends and everything else needed to be popular. She was also a Jackass who wore skimpy clothes and was currently dating the one and only DJ in the school, Dave Strider. Dave was honestly a nice guy and had been friends with Karkat since they were young but KK never liked the people that Dave would hang with.
Aradia was the start of Sollux's bad boy streak. Aradia had gotten Sollux to go with her and Rose to Dave's one night for a party. That night began Sollux's party life and life as a druggie. He had gotten into weed and also alcohol. Ever since that night Aradia and Sollux were at every single one of Dave's parties.
"Hey KK! You in there kid? KK … KK!" Came the yelling of Sollux's voice.
"Oh yeah sorry… Was just thinking." Karkat replied.
"Thinking in the middle of the hallway? That's stupid."
"Jackass not everyone is as smart as you"
Karkat turned to head towards his locker with Sollux by his side. They had gotten into this routine last year when they started high school. Now being Junior's it was like second nature to them. They always meet up in the main hall then walked to their lockers together as they were now.
Karkat got to his locker with Sollux yapping in his ear about another party. Another one of Dave's Parties that KK could care less about. He was over with listening to how Sollux apparently had a life outside of school. It not only was stupid but it also hurt him. He always hated parties but deep down inside he wanted Sollux to ask him to go with him to one. He wanted a lot more then just going to a party with Sollux. He wanted Sollux all to himself. He wanted Aradia gone and the chance to tell Sollux his feelings. He wanted to be accepted for who he is with open arms. But that was never gonna happen until well Sollux next opened his mouth.
"Hey do wanna come to with me this weekend?"
"Wait what?" Karkat asked back as he shut his locker with his books in his hands.
Sollux had also shut his locker then continued, "The party KK. I wanna know if you can come with me to the party. God it's almost as if your brain dead in there"
"Hey fucktard I was just spacing off. No need to be mean." Karkat replied with anger dripping off his tongue.
"So can you go to the party with me or not?"
"What about Aradia? Isn't she supposed to go with you or something?"
"Well Aradia is out gonna be away for the weekend. Something to do with her family or something." Sollux replied with the very words that Karkat had always wanted to hear.
"Alright Asswipe. I'll go with you to the party. When is it anyway?" Karkat had been ignoring Sollux's rant about the party and missed those crucial details about when it would be.
"It's tonight at 7. Dave's house as usual. I'll pick you up at 6:30."
"Alright. I can't wait. It's a date." Karkat hadn't tried to be flirtatious but he couldn't help it.
"It's not a date KK!" Yelled Sollux as he began walking in the opposite direction to his 1st period class.
Karkat couldn't help but chuckle as he walked towards the music department. Had the whatever was up there in the sky heard his pleas and finally decided to give him his chance? Karkat didn't know but he did know he wasn't gonna fuck this up. He wasn't gonna ruin his chance. Another chuckle then escaped from him as he thought over his words once again. It's a date. It's a date.
It totally was a date.
