John's pov
"I'm really gonna miss you guys" i sadly. Unfortunally all three of my best friends are moving. Dave, Rose, and Jade, Dave and Rose are siblings and Jade is their adopted sister. I'm currently holding back some tears. "oh come on egderp, don't cry" Dave says, wiping a stray tear off my cheek. "how can i not, all of my best friends are moving" I say sorrowfully. They look at me sadly, then we hear a "HONK" oh... it was bro. I give them all one last good bye hug before i watch them leave.
(present day)
I wake up in a jolt "shit!..." another nightmare. I've been having a lot of those lately... probably because my father's death anniversary is today. I get up off of the shitty thing the orphanage calls a bed. I look at my bunk buddy "hey, Karkat" I say. Karkat is basically my only friend, I remember when I had more but they moved. Even so I'm also pretty sure Karkat hates me... but at least he has a little bit of friendship for me. I sigh, he's not waking up anytime soon.
I've been really depressed lately, all I can think about is death. Mostly my fathers, he was murdered by this guy named Slick, at least they caught him though. i was the one to find him, just there laying in a pool of his own blood, by the way i was 14 when that happened, too young. It's been 16 years since I have been given life but it has only been three since I have regretted living.
I look at the clock. "fuck" I say loudly and go to wake up Karkat. I shove him a bit "Karkat!" I say in to his ear. He practically jumps out of bed "WHAT DO YOU WANT" he says bitterly. "It's time to get ready for school" I say "OH...YEAH, THANKS" he replies. We get ready for school quickly and leave for school. Luckily the school was only across the street. As we get in the school we go our separate ways, i go to the gym to sit and wait for the bell, and Karkat goes to eat breakfast.
As you go to the gym you see a particular blonde head. Is that!?...No it couldn't be Dave! He moved, remember? You simply rule out the idea and sit down. You look down at the outfit you are wearing, jeans and a hoodie, probably to hide the scars. Most of them most likely know, by the looks they give you, pity and disgust...mostly disgust.
The bell rings, time for shitty class hour one. Everything goes normally but I did hear something about a new student. In second hour I overheard some of the girl chatting over the new kid, apparently there is actually three but two of them are in different grades than us, one in 11th grade and one is in 9th. I'm on my way to third hour when I hear a voice. It sounds like…Dave.
I sit in my third hour class when I hear the teacher announce that there is a new student. I peak up from my drawing to look"…fuck." I say as I shove my face in my drawing and hopes he doesn't see me.
Dave's pov
I look around the class, I can't wait to see John again. We haven't stayed in touch, sadly. I wonder what happened to him, where is he? "you can sit in any of the empty seats, Mr. Strider" the teacher politely says, "thanks" I reply. Hhhhhhmmmmm, hey that kid in the back looks promising I guess I'll sit next to him. "hey kid, what's your name, I'm Dave" you say hold a hand out for him to shake.
"u-mm, no thanks" the kid says. "are you okay, you sound sick" you say in a worried tone. " John Egbert you say hello to this new student this instant!" the teacher booms. You look at John, shocked. "J…John?" you take another look at John. He looks like a typical high school loner…is he? "h-hello" you hear him say quietly. You pull John into a hug you don't care if the others are watching, he is your best friend for fucks sake! "John I missed you so much!" you say quite loudly. "I missed you too" you hear him whisper.
You raise your hand "Me and John need to use the bathroom!" . The teacher looks at you two then nods, and hands both of you passes. You take John by the hand and run to the bathroom. "I missed you so fucking much!" you yell as you tackle hug him. You hear him giggle as he hugs back." I missed you a ton, Dave!" The bell rings, signaling lunch. "come on" you hear him say "Karkat will be happy that I have another friend!" he says happily. You and John get lunch and sit down next to a dude with white-ish hair." Sup, so you are Karkat?" you say. "WHATS IT TO YOU FUCKFACE!?" he says back, grumpily. "Karkat! This is Dave he was my best friend when I was 13!" you hear john yell. You hear Karkat sigh and offer his hand to shake, then you shake it because you can't leave a man hanging like that.
The rest of the day went quickly, and the next thing you know you are walking with John and Karkat. "so… where do you live?" you feel John get tense. "u-um" you see him look down. " You okay egderp?" you say, worried. "WE LIVE AT THIS ORPHANAGE RIGHT OVER THERE" Karkat interjects. You look at John "your dad died?" you see john nod. Needless to say, you are shocked. "when?" you ask. You see Karkat hug John "LAY OFF DOUCHEPOTATO" you hear Karkat say, madly. You look down, ashamed "I-I'm sorry"." It's okay, it's been two years. Today is the second anniversary" you hear john say quietly. You watch as they both go inside, and you feel like a dick.
