That Red Light
Karkat/John one shot
Fluff :3
In which John has a laser light and Karkat can't keep his eyes off it
Karkat was sitting there watching a romcom. Out of the corner of his eye he saw a red light flitting across the room. Strange, he thought. But he dismissed it. Until the light was focused directly on his romcom. There were two possibilities. A) it was a highly trained sniper or B) fucking Egbert found a fucking laser light.
Karkat opted to go with the latter. He turned around angrily to find the blue eyed boy grinning at him.
"EGBERT!" Karkat yelled. "You bulge licking fuck face, stop disturbing my romcoms!"
However, his grin just grew wider.
His eyes full of innocence, he said, "But Karkitty! I'm having fun and you're being boring!"
Karkat chose to ignore him and turned back to his romcom.
But John was persistent.
The light flashed in Karkat's peripheral vision.
Beside the TV.
On the corner of the rug.
Beside the light on the roof.
On his leg.
On his nose.
Fucking Egbert.
Karkat turned to face John again, and saw him grinning mischievously, whilst waving the red laser light around in a random pattern.
Karkat couldn't help it. He was entranced by the little light. He couldn't stop following it with his eyes.
John must of noticed, because he stopped moving it.
Flicked it to the right - Karkat's eyes followed.
To the left - they followed.
Suddenly it was moving very slowly towards Karkat. Karkat couldn't help it - he ran forward to step on it.
John burst out laughing. "Oh my gog, Karkat!"
Karkat glared at him, "What?"
"You - you just, tried to - to catch th-the light!" And John was consumed in a fit of giggles once more.
"Whatever, you ignorant nook sniffer."
Karkat resumed watching his romcom trying his damnedest to ignore that red light.
A/N:
Hope you guys liked this little one shot! I recently acquired a laser light and was waving it a round, when I thought, "oh my gog it would be amusing to see how Karkat would react" and then this happened :3
