I walked into the train station the following month. Fortunately, my friend was not there, when usually she'd be hanging out with her best friend, Sollux. Gosh, they talk the night away. Usually about computer stuff or something like that. Karkat comes in with Gamzee lifting him up on his shoulders. Karkat was pouting and thrashing about.
"WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU, GAMZEE?! PUT ME DOWN!"
Gamzee seemed to ignore him and he just stood there waiting for the train, as so was I. Sollux and my friend, Runa, came in soon after, talking about computers and a new ROM hack Runa had tried to make last night.
"Hey, Runa." I said quietly.
I still don't feel comfortable talking to my friends just yet. After what happened to my sister over the summer, I will never forgive myself.
"Oh! Sammy! What's up? How was your summer?"
She asked cheerfully, as Sollux went over to Gamzee, questioning him about Karkat being on his shoulders.
"I jUsT tHoUgHt It WoUlD bE sOmEtHiNg FuN tO dO wHiLe We WaIt FoR ThE TrAiN." Gamzee said to Sollux
. Karkat growled, "YOU CALL THIS SHIT FUN?! WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?!"
Gamzee laughed. "HoNk, YoU'rE sO fUnNy, KaRkAt!"
Karkat folded his arms and looked away. The train pulled up to the stop, and everyone flooded on. Runa and I were probably the only non-troll species that attends the school we attend. Runa is recodnised as the only human, yet she has befriended all the trolls, and I am usually referenced as the only… Wolf. It's true, no doubt about it. My sister was an angel, and I was the wolf. Lone wolf, now. Of course, once I got on, the only available seat was next to Karkat, since Gamzee was sitting with Tavros and Runa was sitting with Sollux. I sat next to Karkat nervously, as the train jerked forward, starting to move at a slow and steady pace. I looked at the floor, as I always did, and Karkat tapped his fingers on the glass, growling at Gamzee's reflection in the window. I looked behind me to see Sollux showing Runa something on his laptop, whatever it was, it must have been funny. Both of them started cracking up. I cringed at the pitch in which they were laughing in, and Karkat did the same. He quickly turned around and cursed at them.
"COULD YOU JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU ASSLICKERS?!"
Sollux stared at Karkat through his red and blue glasses, as Runa leaned on his shoulder, chuckling quietly.
"Iignore u2 then." Sollux said to Karkat.
Karkat groaned and turned back around. The train halted to a stop, lurching all of us forward. The doors slowly opened and everyone flooded off the train. Sollux had his laptop at his side, while Runa was talking about how her summer was fun, since they spent nearly the whole summer with each other. Literally, even when Runa went to Italy with her family, she brought her laptop and literally Skyped Sollux the whole time she was there. I bet the vacation was to spend quality time as a family, but I doubt they knew that all their daughter was going to do was Skype her best friend, which was of opposite gender, and definitely was not human. I walked to the school grounds alone, when usually my sister would be walking with me, along with her friends, but her friends, to my vision, were nowhere to be found. Gamzee walked by, talking to Tavros about Faygo and how delicious it was. Tavros, having heard this, didn't mind it being repeated to him over and over again, he was cool about it. Unlike Karkat, if Gamzee were talking to him about Faygo, Karkat would probably kill someone. Terezi, another one of Runa's friends, is now walking with her, as well as talking to Sollux about their 'relationship'. Sollux blushed a bit and said they were nothing more that friends, but Terezi didn't fall for that. I walked into the school and to my locker, sadly next to Karkat and across from Runa. Karkat slammed a random bottle of one of Gamzee's Faygo bottles, smashing the lock (which somehow reappears everyday) and making Karkat able to open his locker.
"GOD, I HATE THESE PAIN IN THE ASS THINGS WHERE YOU KEEP ALL YOUR SHIT. IT'S POINTLESS!" Karkat yelled.
Sollux jumped and looked around, realizing it was only Karkat. He rolled his eyes and grabbed his stuff for the first class, as well as Runa's things, just to be nice. Karkat growled and slammed the door to the locker shut. I yelped, and he stormed off. Feferi walked down the hall, Eridan next to her. I looked at them, and watch Runa and Sollux walk to class. Too bad I sit next to Karkat in homeroom. That's never a pretty site. Ever. I got my books and sat down. Karkat was staring at the board with a dead look on his face. I was going to ask if he was alright, but that wouldn't be a smart idea. Gamzee soon came in with Tavros and sat down next to us. Gamzee sat next to Karkat and Tavros sat next to me. Gamzee was talking to Karkat about how he and Tavros sat next to each other on the strange human way of transportation called a train and how they talked about Faygo. Sollux was cleaning his glasses (which I could hear from across the room) and Runa was helping him a bit, since she wanted to help out Sollux as much as she could. I don't know why, but she just does. The teacher came in, giving Karkat a deadly glare.
"I don't want to send you to the principal, Karkat." She said.
"WHATEVER THAT MEANS. DON'T TELL ME IT'S ONE OF YOUR SACRED DUMBASS LEADERS OR SOMETHING, BECAUSE ONLY I AM THE FUCKING LEADER HERE." Karkat said irritantly.
"Wouldn't do that iif Ii were you, kk." Sollux said, putting his glasses back on.
Karkat rolled his eyes and flicked him off. Basically, the day continued like this, except for P.E… That's when thing's started… Crackin'.
