Rainbow Drinkers
He pulls me back by my shoulders so my head is in his lap. I can't actually see him because of the whole being blind thing but I still look at what I smell is up. Karkat takes my glasses just to mess with me but I don't try to get them back. I just smile. I reach my arms up and place them on his neck. I smell a small smile. He leans down and kisses me. He's not as angry as people make him out to be. He's actually really nice when we're alone or not with a lot of people. I pause and turn so I'm not upside down. I'm on top of him and my hand starts to slide up his shirt, like it was doing that all on it's own. I let out a small laugh but then pull it back and place it on his chest. After a while and after I accidentally made a very small cut on his lip with my tooth, I just lay there. My head on his chest, I can hear his heart beat. Just as I'm drifting off and I feel his fingers rubbing my head, Vriska bursts in, blue blood trickling down her neck. I jump up and Karkat quickly gives me my glasses from wherever he hides them. She screams.
"Karkat you're the leader! Go tell that dumb rainbow drinker she needs to stop!"
"Wh...what?"
"You heard me"
"Fine" and he gets up. Vriska follows him out. After a few seconds I get up and go after them.
Karkat POV
I stand up and follow Vriska out of the room and down the hall. What I see is horrific.
I see her body. And that dreaded rainbow drinker looming over her. Drenched in her blood.
No. Not her. She was so sweet. And innocent. Dead. Lifeless.
"No, not her." It's barely a mumble but Terezi hears me. She moves closer and puts her head on my shoulder, holding my hands.
Nepeta. The sweet girl. Lived in her own little world. Roleplay and ships. Why her? She didn't deserve this. The world ends not with a bang but a whisper. For some reason this line comes back to me. Sooner or later all leaves must fall, some fall faster than others. My hands start shaking. Not her. Not her.
How dare she?
"You little..." Kanaya looks up, and she smiles. Showing off the blood. Mocking me.
"Why" Terezi speaks "Why would you do something like that?" Her voice is so soft. So delicate. Distraught. Broken. Terezi sounds broken.
"What did that poor girl ever do to you?" She pulls away from me. Her voice stronger, harsher.
"Kanaya."
"Is nobody worried about me?" It's Vriska.
"Shut the fuck up" Vriska starts to protest and I cut her off "That girl is dead. You are just slightly injured. Get over it. She is dead" Vriska storms out.
Terezi walks toward nepeta's cold body. I've never seen her like this. She sits down. She goes and takes Nepeta's head and lays it on her lap. She pets her. Just the way Nepeta closes nepeta's eyes. And now...it seems better. It almost looks like Nepeta is sleeping, taking a short nap. Maybe she'll wake up soon and demand to go outside even though she hates it out there.
Terezi POV
Nepeta. My friend. Dead. All because of her. She's standing close to me, I can smell her. Standing and watching the show. I "look" toward her.
"Listen up you heartless piece of crap, I'm gonna cut your throat and listen to you bleed while I smell you die" She smirks.
"What you don't believe me?" I can't take it anymore. I run up to Kanaya and push her. She stumbles back.
"Go" My voice breaks.
"I just needed some blood. It's been too long since I tasted some" she scoffs
"Just...just go away" I can tell. I'm about to break down. Kanaya still stands there.
"GO" I can't have her see me like this.
"Terezi, are you-" Its Karkat.
"You too. Go. NOW" Kanaya runs out like the coward she is.
"OUT" Karkat slowly walks away. He looks back at me. I turn my back to him and sit down next to Nepeta. When I'm sure he is gone, the tears pour out.
"Nepeta, please wake up. Please, I want to play. Nepeta you promised we'd roleplay. Nepeta wake up, come on."
I feel arms around me. Karkat. No I don't want him to see me.
"Karkat, she won't listen to me" I sob. I turn and bury my face into his chest.
"Shhh it's okay"
"Karkat you're the leader! Tell her she has to wake up" He's patting my back
"It's okay Terezi. It's okay"
"Karkat. Do something. Please."
"I can't Terezi, you know that" He whispers into my hair.
"Karkitty"
"Hmm"
"She's gone"
"Yes darling….. she's gone" The tears have stopped pouring and are more of a trickle
"I don't want her gone"
"I don't either" There is a long moment of silence filled with more patting and shooshing.
"Can you bring her back?"
"No"
"For real?"
"Yes" I look up with a tear stained face and his soft lips kiss mine, ever so gently. That's when I feel myself relax. My shoulders are less tense and I feel a bit better.
And I stay there. I don't want to leave his embrace. I try to get as close to him as I can. I hold onto Karkat and he holds onto me. And we are both sitting there in each others comfort, drenched in my best friend's blood.
