~Terezi's POV~
I was walking along the streets of Alternia, smiling to myself as I passed a specific someone... "H3Y K4RKL3S!" I said as joy filled me. I have loved Karkat for a while now, but because of his constant crabby attitude, I don't know how he feels about me.
"OH, HEY TEREZI. WHAT'S UP?" He asked. My heart fluttered at the very sound of his voice. I smiled. It was fun to hear his voice, though I could not see him. I could smell him, that was good enough.
"1 H4V3 JUST B33N T4LK1NG TO VR1SK4 FOR TH3 MOST P4RT. WH4T H4V3 YOU B33N DO1NG?" I asked, smiling. He looked at me.
"WELL... IF I HAVE TO BE HONEST, I HAVE BEEN THINKING... MOSTLY ABOUT YOU... IT'S JUST... I STILL FEEL REALLY BAD ABOUT WHAT I DID... YOU TOLD ME YOU FORGIVE ME, IN ONE OF THE DREAM BUBBLES... BUT I CAN'T HELP BUT HAVE THIS BURNING HATE FOR MYSELF, FOR DOING WHAT I DID TO YOU..." He said. I looked at him in utter shock. He still felt bad about that? Why? I place a hand on his tense shoulder and smiled reassuringly.
"L1ST3N, K4RK4T... 1T-" I was cut off as he engulfed me in a warm hug. Though shocked for the most fleeting of moments, I was able to slide my arms around his neck, taking in his scent. Candy red, like always...
"TEREZI... I KNOW I HAVE SAID IT A THOUSAND TIMES, AND IT'S PROBABLY GETTING ANNOYING... BUT I AM SO, SO SORRY..." It was like his grip tightened around my waist; I felt him begin to tremble. I gently rubbed circles in his upper back. I pulled away from the hug to look in his eyes.
"K4RK4T... NON3 OF TH4T M4TT3RS 4NY MOR3... 1'M H3R3 NOW... R1GHT?" He nodded. I smiled. His arms slowly began to leave my waist, as did my own arms detach from his neck. My body instantly felt cold. In fact..., It was freezing!
"SO... YOU AND DAVE, HUH?" He asked. I nodded, looking away. It was no longer, for me and Dave. I had found him and Jade having one of the most passionate sloppy make out session I have EVER seen. It was even more passionate than the ones I would have with him... Wait... When did I start crying?! Oh no! Karkat might worry now! No I don't want that! "TEREZI, A-ARE YOU OK?"
I looked at him, teal tears still running down my face. I was about to open my mouth when I felt his lips press against mine. I was stunned, but soon enough began to kiss back. It was five seconds of a miracle, then he pulled away, blushing wildly.
"WH4T'S TH3 M4TT3R, K4KL3S...? D-D1D YOU NOT L-L1K3 IT...?" I asked, worried.
"N-NO, IT'S NOTHING LIKE THAT... JUST..." He wiped away one single tear on my face. "I KNOW YOU LIKE ME TEREZI... I KNOW WHAT HAPPENED WITH DAVE... I WAS JUST STUPID ENOUGH TO REMIND YOU OF IT... BUT... ALL IN ALL... I LOVE YOU TEREZI PYROPE... YOU ARE A GREAT GIRL AND... I WOULD LOVE, IF YOU AGREED TO BE MY MATEPRIT..."
I looked at him with wide eyes. Me? He wanted me to be his matesprit? Is this a dream? A joke?
I grab the both of his hands. "K4RK4T... 1-1 WOULD LOV3 TO B3 YOUR M4T3SPR1T..." He smiled and took me in his warm embrace once again. I kissed his lips with great happyness.
I shot out of my recooprecoon getting slime everywhere. It... Was all a dream? But, why? I really did love Karkat... Why would I have a dream like that only to wake up to it all not being true?
I changed my clothes and plopped down on the couch. It was all too good to be true
