Holy fuck. You just invited Terezi over to watch a movie. Where did you get the courage to do that? And did she actually agree? You think that you must be dreaming until you hear a knock on the door of your hive.

"Karkles! Open up!"

Shit. Your name is Karkat Vantas and you're about to watch a movie with the girl you've been flush crushing on for two sweeps.

You open the door and she greets you with a hug. You don't want her to let go, but eventually she does.

"so what are we gonna watch? One of your romcoms?" she asked teasingly

"Nah, you wouldn't like them anyways." you reply.

She raises and eyebrow and smirks,

"Don't seem so sure. You never know if you don't give it a try!"

"Are you actually offering to watch one of my romcoms with me?"

"Yeah! I'm sure they're not too bad!"

"Okay... But you're gonna hate it" I mumble and put one of my favorites in.

She smiles and laughs,

"If you're so sure then let's make a bet! If you're right and I don't like it, then I'll do whatever you want for a while day!"

"And if I lose?" I ask, hoping that I will, in fact, win.

She thinks for a moment before answering, "You have to FLARP with everyone for a week!"

I shrug and start the movie, "you're on"

She sits directly in front of the screen so she can lick it to know what's going on. "This doesn't seem too bad so far..."

"Trust me, it gets worse", I say as I lean back on my couch.

About a half an hour goes by and Terezi eventually falls asleep. I stop the movie and get up. "Guess this means I win." I say with a sigh. I wrap her in a blanket and carry her over to the couch. She snuggles close to me as she snores, and I sit down while nuzzling her head. "Good night Terezi" I say before letting sleep take me as well.

A few hours pass and I wake up with Terezi still cuddling close to me. I smile as she slowly opens her eyes and turns toward me.

"Did I win?" she asks with a sleepy voice.

I shake my head to tell her no.

"Oh darn", she exclaims with fake disappointment, "guess I have to do whatever you want now."

I allow myself to laugh a bit and pull her closer. "I just want to stay like this, okay?"

She grins, "Sounds perfect"

I kiss her forehead and wrap my arms tighter around her. "Don't ever leave me" I say

I'm surprised when she gently kisses my lips and replies, "whatever you say, you won the bet".

"Hey Terezi?" I ask after she pulls away.

"Yeah Karkles?"

"Flushed for you"

She smiles and replies, "flushed for you too", before kissing me once more.
