Sollux sat up and wiped the tears from his eyes. He checked the time. 3:00 am. There was no way he'd get anymore sleep tonight. He got up and put on his jacket. He grabbed his 3D glasses and got the keys to his mustang. He was going to go see Karkat. He figured that after he got yelled at for a while, but if he got to see his friend and make sure he was okay, it was worth it. As he pulled into Karkat's drive way, he noticed Kankri leaving.
" "Greetings Captor. Your out late." Kankri greeted.
" "You are two. Got work?" Sollux asked.
"No, I just have to go run some errands." Kankri explained. "I should be going. Goodbye" Sollux waved goodbye and went to the front door. Signless wasn't home, so it was only Karkat in the small, quiet house. Sollux went to the door and knocked loudly. He heard something that sounded like yelling and the door opened.
"WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU COMING HERE THIS EARLY IN THE GODDAMN MORNING?!" Karkat asked, not even looking to see who it was. He realized it was Sollux and growled. "FUCKING ASSHOLE. WHY ARE YOU HERE? JUST, GET IN HERE!" Karkat pulled Sollux inside.
"KK, I jutht needed to check on you." Sollux explained.
"SHIT, YOU HAD A NIGHTMARE, DIDN'T YOU?" Karkat guessed. Sollux nodded. He had these nightmares where someone died in these terrible ways and they left him shaken for weeks. Sollux began to cry. "OH, GOD. IT WAS BAD WASN'T IT." Again, Sollux nodded. Karkat hugged him tightly.
"You're okay, right? Jutht tell me you're okay. Thit Kk! Are you okay?! Thay thomething back!" Sollux began to break down.
"LOOK! LOOK! SOLLUX, I'M OKAY! LOOK, I'M RIGHT HERE, AND I'M PERFECTLY FINE." Karkat was trying to calm him down.
"KK! Pleathe! Jutht be okay...don't do anything thtupid." Sollux's break down was fading, but his fear was only growing. "Jutht thtay thafe. I can't lothe you. Not like that. Not like thith..." Sollux got really quiet.
"SOLLUX...IT'S OKAY." Karkat kissed Sollux's head. "JUST CALM DOWN. I'M HERE, AND I'M SAFE, AND MORE IMPORTANTLY, YOU ARE." Karkat cuddled against him. "JUST GO BACK TO SLEEP. i'LL BE HERE WITH YOU."
"Promithe?" Sollux asked, eyes now puffy and red. Karkat nodded.
"YES, I PROMISE...WHAT EXACTLY HAPPENED IN YOUR DREAM?" Karkat asked.
"Y-you and TZ...you decided to go fight thith thing. And you fought. But neither of you thood a chance...You laid dead...both of you dead, and your blood thtained the floor. Then Vrithka came in, and the had wingth and thit...and ath the began to fight, I woke up." Sollux explained. Karkat looked down, freaked out.
"DID EITHER OF THEM TELL YOU ABOUT THE ROLE PLAY?" Karkat asked.
"What role play?" Sollux asked.
"SHIT. I GUESS NOT...WELL, WE WERE PLAYING AN RPG...JUST TONIGHT ACTUALLY...AND IT HAPPENED EXACTLY LIKE THAT. EVEN DOWN TO THE FUCKING WINGED BITCH." Sollux stared in disbelief.
