Chapter 2
(( I know, I should have updated sooner, not really staying true to my word am I? I'm really sorry but I mean, it's Gristmas Break and I've been busy. I think now I will be on a regular update schedule. I will try to get out an update at least twice each week. I have some great ideas for the development of this story also so I hope you enjoy it~ also I tried to make this chapter longer than the last. And I might get around to some Karkat POVs))
Chapter 2- Dummy Kitten
It is the day after what happened with Karkat. Saturday. You sigh and a slight blush comes to your face as you remember the embarrassing moment. Then the emotion turns to sadness, as you realize how much he cares for Terezi, you kind of want to help him. That's what got you here. You are in town right near Terezi and Dave's favorite hangout spot. You decided you would talk to her about Karkat, the least she could do is let him down easy, and if she still had feelings for him, she would go to him. You smile knowing how happy your Moirail would be to have Terezi back in his life. Not that he'd admit she wasn't. 'He's as stubborn as a mule' you think, and laugh to yourself. You gather up every shred courage you have, you don't know how this will go. You walk into the place, and freeze from shock!
You see Karkat in there, and your heart drops. You can't do this with him there, the shock only lasts a second before you compose yourself. You notice now that he is talking to Dave, not Terezi. You question this, but don't put much thought into it. It isn't your job to judge his decisions. He turns his head for a split second and sees you standing there, his eyes widen and his face almost looks... Sad? You can't really tell. You bite your lip and try to unnoticeably slip out. You see him staring after you for a bit, before Dave snaps him back to attention. You shake your head, you are sad you couldn't help him, but decide to try again later sometime. You sigh again, why is romance so confusing? Oh well, you can't to anything about it for now. Since you are already in town, you decide to go to your favorite ice cream parlor. You smile, thinking about a nice sundae of Chocolate Malted Crunch, delicious. Anyone who knows you knows how much you love chocolate. You walk into the shop and order the biggest sundae you could get, for only five bucks. You sit in your favorite window seat, lost in thought. Then it hits you! It would be so much easier if you just pestered Terezi. Plus you wouldn't have to have the shame of being face-to-face with her. You decide it's the perfect idea and pick up your phone to immediately start talking to her.

That went... Terrible. You hit your head against the table. Ugh, you messed up, and now things were even more confused! You finish you ice cream and quickly leave. You are extremely frustrated, and know something is wrong, Terezi wasn't acting like herself. Maybe she just hates you? And not in "That" way. You are dragged out of your thoughts by bumping into the Coolkid himself, Dave Strider. "Yo Y/N, good timing, I was meaning to talk to you," He says. You look at him questionably, "about what?" You ask. "Well..." He starts, "I was talking to Karkat earlier..." You look at him with the same questioning glance, while inside your stomach is churning and a feeling of dread washes over you. You change your facial expression, indicating for him to go on. "He told me that you were flushed for me," he replies finally, and extremely bluntly. You burst out laughing. That wasn't what you were expecting from him at all. He stares at you worriedly for a bit, then asks, "What's so funny?" You pause and try to catch your breath. Once you can speak again, you tell him, "No, Karkat got it wrong. I am completely, 100%, not flushed for you." He looked relieved. "Can you please tell Terezi that too? I believe she heard the wrong information," you ask. He nods, "Ok, that's cool then." He walks away, slightly... Flustered? You guess, probably by your reaction. You giggle a bit more to yourself and pull out your phone to immediately begin pestering Karkat.

You laugh and head home. Today was a good day, you decide. You smile before you fall asleep on the couch. To have pleasant dreams.
