A/N Yes! An update! I am not dead…just REALLY lazy. But ya'll know you love me. Before I go on, I would like to make something clear, I have not finished reading homestuck, I haven't even met any of the trolls yet, so please understand if I screw something up. Anyway, I would like to take this time to thank all of my lovely reviewers for leaving their opinions. I hope you will continue to do so and I look forward to any comments you…well, comment. So without further ado, here is chapter 2.
'Fuck' I thought to myself as I stared into the blood red eyes of the one person I couldn't stand. 'Why does he have to be here?
"What the hell are you doing here, Karkat?" I had to grind my teeth together to actually call him by his name instead of something much more colorful.
"Well fuckass, this is the bus to my school now so…" He continued on. I stopped listening to him after I realized what he said. He was going to this school? Did he change schools or something? I hadn't seen him in almost three years and now he just happens to transfer to my school? Ah fuck this wasn't going to end well.
"Are you even listening to me John?" Karkat asked, wow, he didn't look happy. Good.
"No, I'm not, I would say I was sorry but we both know I'd be lying if I did."
He flushed a bright red and the look in his eyes spoke volumes of emotion, mainly rage, hate, irritation, and something else that was so slight it was impossible for me to identify it.
I could tell he was about to say something, probably mean and bitter, as everything he ever said to me was, before a big yellow bus pulled up to the bus stop. Huh, why was the short bus here? I looked out to the side of it and saw the baby blue handy-cap sign on the door. Why would that be there…I looked over and saw Tavros being lifted up into the bus through the machine, wheelchair and all. Oh yeah, I wonder if this is the only bus that has that?
"Well John, are you getting on or not? I don't care either way, as a matter of fact; please stay right there until we leave. It would make my fuckass life a hell of a lot easier." Karkats smile was as smug as ever as he stood in the doorway of the bus.
'You know, technically were not on school grounds, you could punch him in the face right now and not have to face any repercussions for it what so ever. Unless you count Karkat and Gamzee pounding your face into the ground a consequence.'
No sooner had the thought crossed my mind than another one entered, 'you know, it's been three years since you last saw Karkat and Gamzee, they might have matured some in the three years you haven't seen them. Karkat might not be that bad anymore.'
Um, brain? I'm sorry but, JUST WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU SMOKING AND WHERE CAN I BUY SOME? Are you not remembering the hell he and his friends put us through when we went to the same school? I sure do and it was not a pretty experience.
With an unnecessarily dramatic sigh, I shoved my bag onto my shoulder as far as it would go and stepped up the three steps to the bus and took a look around. Nothing at first really stood out to me, except for the fact that there were a few more trolls on the bus than usual. Let's see there was Vriska, sitting next to a female troll who had bright green eyes, and a hairstyle that looked like she should be in a vampire movie. There was a girl with some sort of blue helmet type thing on her head sitting next to a girl who was wearing a pair of unnecessary bright red sunglasses. There was Sollux who was sitting next to Feferi, and probably whispering things I would rather not know into her ear fins. There was Aradia sitting next to Equius. And then there was Eridan, who I constantly sat beside for two reasons. One, it pissed him off, which always put me in a good mood, and two because he didn't talk to me.
I sat down beside him and glanced over at him, he was too busy glaring at Sollux and Feferi to notice me, oh well, as long as Karkat and Gamzee didn't sit near us, and all of the seats were full so they couldn't. Whoopee. They chose to sit at the front of the bus and leave the rest of us alone. Karkat sat by my friend Rose and Gamzee sat next to him across the aisle by a person whose name I didn't know. They should leave me alone today. I just have to follow the advice I gave Tavros. Just stay out of their way.
"So john, wwhats up?" Oh my gosh, Eridan is speaking to me, that's a big surprise. Usually he just ignores me or yells at me, most of the time yelling at me to "shut the fuck up you stupid land dwweller." And I would grin and tell him he knew he loved me, to which he would get all huffy and stare at Feferi for inappropriate amounts of time. Seriously, I think he should just ask her to have sex with him and be done with it. It would sure make things a lot easier on both of them. I told him this one day and he freaked out on me, going on and on about how stupid I was and how I nevver made any sense. It was really pathetic actually.
I turned to face him "Well Karkat and Gamzee are going to this school now, and as you can see I'm just dancing on rainbows about it." I deliberately put a grin that was obviously too cheery on my face and gave him a sarcastic 'thumps up' with my right hand.
Eridan looked to the front of the bus, "Oh yeah, they're trying to integrate more trolls into human environments so they can learn to be less scared of us or some other shit like that. Its really stupid if you ask me." I nodded my agreement and turned to look at Karkat and saw him yelling at a red haired boy and a brunette girl to "Stop touching my horns you stupid fucking fuckasses." No, keep touching his horns! It makes him uncomfortable, keep doing it to him! Man that sounded really perverted.
"But they're so small! I thought trolls had a lot bigger horns than that." The Girl exclaimed. The boy next to her, probably her boyfriend, nodded his agreement.
"Well they don't always have big ass horns so stop it and leave me the fuck alone!" Karkat growled at them and turned around in his seat so he was facing the front.
"Calm down motherfucker, they're just a little curious that's all. Humans are like that from what Tavbro has told me. So anyway, what's your schedule like, maybe we have some classes together."
I stopped paying attention to him as he started listing off his classes, until I heard the redheaded boy yell out so the whole bus could hear, "Hey, you're in my home room!" Karkat slapped his right hand to his fore head and yelled out "Fuck my life!"
Ha ha ha, that's what you get for being such an asshole all the time. Revenge truly is a dish best served cold…wait a minute! I looked back at the read haired kid. Isn't he in my homeroom?
…Fuck.
