"Wake up, fuckass!" A loud, ungodly voice rang in my ear and I groaned, flinching away from the sound.

"Kk, you athhole." I groaned, sitting up.

"I don't plan on being late and your my only ride." He glared at me and pointed to the clock. Six fucking thirty.

"Kk. We don't have thchool till nine thirty theven." I sighed and slipped out of bed, stretching a little. He just shrugged.

"Just get your ass dressed and me to school." He snapped, causing me to glare at him a little. I grabbed my multi colored glasses and put them on, blinking a little. He kept glaring at me.

"What the fuck do you want, kk?" I snapped, getting dressed in a black and yellow striped t shirt and a pair of gray jeans.

"First of all, stop calling me kk, you nook sniffer. Second of all, hurry the fuck up, fuckass!"He yelled, stomping out of the room. I just shook my head and looked around. No matching shoe. Alright. I can improvise. I found a black shoe and a white shoe and had an idea. I switched the laces and smiled at my small handiwork and put the shoes on, sleepily walking out of the room making sure to turn out the light.

"There, you happy?" I grumbled as I walked out into the sunshine and got into my slightly rusted pickup. It was better then nothing, although not the most reliable car in the world. I sighed as Karkat got in next to me, having to jump a little so that he could reach. He was considerably shorter then most people. I snuck a peek at him through the corner of my mind. How could such a short person be so temper filled? Like me, his short black hair was slightly unruly but still more manageable then some of our friends hair. His face was smooth, not a hint of acne. Which he claims to be luck, but I still say its cause he hasn't hit puberty yet. His eyes were a brownish color, closer to hazel and were always glaring at something. He had a dainty nose although he'd try to punch me if I pointed it out. His lips were full and honestly, I wanted to see if they were kissable. But I know Karkat. He has his eyes on someone else.

"What the fuck are you staring at?" He snapped, whipping his head in my direction so those angry eyes were on my face.

"Nothing, of courthe." I stated and turned forward, driving us to the school. We got out, me more regretful, and walked inside. Before I could get to far, Karkat grabbed my by my elbow and swung me around.

"Listen, fuckass. I don't care what you say or how you protest, but I do not swing that way, got it? I'm straight. As in I don't like guys. Meaning I don't like you. But I put up with your stupid ass anyways just so I can get a ride to school. Understand?" He snarled, his face scrunching up a little and his eyes heating up with anger.

"Alright, alright. I already knew that, k- Karkat. Now if you pleathe, let me go." I pulled my elbow away and walked down the hall, heading into the dining area. I knew he was following, but I decided to ignore him for the day. We took our usual spots at our usual table and I noticed a few other people were already there. Terezi, Nepeta, John, Dave, and Equius were the ones seated. Then again. Nepeta and Equius are always together and so are John and Dave. Terezi, well. She's blind and usually glues herself to Nepeta, even changing her schedule to match hers. Terezi stopped talking and looked up, grinning broadly.

"Karkat!" She jumped over the table and tackled Karkat off of his chair, making me smirk.

"Tho, Kk. Howth the floor?" I asked, still smiling.

"I thought I told you to stop calling me that you fuckass!" He yelled but gave up trying to get up and went limp. Terezi looked at him, well, in his direction and licked his cheek, laughing her weird scratchy laugh.

"Terezi, get of of Karkitty." Nepeta scolded and surprisingly, Terezi got up, going back to her seat. She usually doesn't listen to anyone except Karkat. I wonder if Nepeta and Terezi have become friends, then. Just then, the rest of the group walked in. Gamzee was wheeling Tavros, Jane and Vriska were talking animatedly, Rose and Kanaya were walking silently together, Feferi and Aradia were talking about they're new fish tank, and finally, Eridan walked in looking lonely as usual.

"Sol!" He said eagerly and ran towards me. I sidestepped slightly and he missed me, falling on his face.

"Don't even try it, Ampora." I snapped, sitting down again.

"Wwhy, sol! Wwhy can I hug you!" He whined in his weird accent. I shot him a glare and he huffed, sitting on the stool. "I wwouldn't wwant a landwweller anywways." He stated, staring at Feferi. She raised an eyebrow then went back to talking to Aradia about what fish she wanted. I spent the rest of the morning staring at Karkat and wondering why I wasn't good enough. He would never be mine, I would never be his. Once the bell rang, I got up and went to the bathroom, locking myself in a stall and I just sat there, staring blankly at the wall. I pulled out my phone and looked at it. A picture of Karkat when he wasn't looking filled up my screen. I knew I needed to let him go, but it isn't that easy. Not when you love someone. Or at least come close to loving them. I let my head drop a little as the tears fell from my eyes. Oh, Kk. Why can't you love me! I though exasperatedly before letting the tears flow more freely.
