Gamzee woke up to the alarm set on his desk, He groaned as he got up and reached for it. He tapped the alarm and he sat down and rubbed his head and he looked around. Karkat wasn't in his bed, he was probably taking a shower. Gamzee got out of bed and went to the bathroom, he opened the door and light amounts of steam flew out.

"Morning Karkat" Gamzee called out to him as Karkat greeted him and he began to brush his teeth. Karkat reached for his towel and wrapped it around his waist and opened the shower curtain and left the bathroom. Gamzee then after took a shower and got out, grabbed his clothes and went back to the bathroom to change into them. Karkat was ready he grabbed his laptop and his bag and waited for Gamzee. He grabbed his guitar case and his bag with his laptop in it and slung it over his shoulder as he held his guitar strap in his hand.

"You ready yet Gamzee?" Karkat called out as Gamzee got up.

"Yeah bro, I'm coming" Gamzee left with Karkat to their class and on the way there, Gamzee saw a paraplegic and he entered the same room they were going to.

"Gamzee what are you doing you stopped walking" Karkat waver a hand in front of Gamzee's face and he snapped out of his small trance.

"What?" He said then shook his head "oh uh let's go sorry" they walked in and the paraplegic was in the front row. Gamzee walked to the back and so did Karkat, after they finished and class Gamzee did his usual routine of relaxing. He sat on a bench this time, he pulled out his guitar and leaned back on the bench, then began to play.

He decided to not sing and Just play. He felt the cold wood on the neck of the guitar. He had this guitar his whole life, he loved it so much. Hell even Karkat knew how important it was to him. It was given to him by his dad who meant a lot to him. Sadly he wasn't there to see him graduate high school, leave to college...

His suddenly stopped playing when he saw the paraplegic pass by, he put his guitar away and slung the strap over his chest, then walked over to him.

"Hey!" Gamzee called out and the paraplegic stopped and looked back Gamzee was finally in front of him and smiled "hey there"

"Oh, uhhh hi" he looked pretty nervous around Gamzee, which was cute as Fuck. Gamzee looked him over. He wore a green bandana around his neck, a brown and white shirt, the sleeves were mid length and he wore brown shorts. He then noticed he had no legs, what he had was from the knees up. Gamzee smile and then says.

"I'm Gamzee can I know who you are?" Then he added "if you don't motherfuckin mind that is" the man hesitated but then said his name.
"I'm Tavros Nitram nice to meet you" he smiled...Gamzee loved it, loved it so fucking much, even if he Just saw it for the first time. Gamzee smiled back and kneeled down in front of him, Tavros's eyes followed Gamzee as he knelt in front of him "so is there something you need Gamzee?"

"I wanted to know if you wanted to hang out if you don't have anything to do now" Gamzee looked into his brown eyes, they were calm and he loved them. God, Why was he in love with this motherfucker's appearance? Tavros pondered at the invitation, he smiled.

"Uh Sure Why not?" He smiled again which made Gamzee smile as well, Gamzee moved his hair out of his eyes and got up Tavros looked at Gamzee's guitar "that was you playing?" Gamzee nodded and Tavros clapped "it was great really!" Gamzee blushed a bit and chuckled nervously "can I hear you play some more?"

"Oh Sure" Gamzee went and held the handles of the wheelchair, turned it around and pushed it to the bench. Tavros looked embarrassed.

"Wh-what I-I c-could have done it!" Tavros's face was red and and he stuttered a lot and Gamzee laughed a bit.

"Don't worry bro" Gamzee continued to push the wheelchair over to the bench and he sat down "no need to get embarrassed about it" Gamzee smiled "besides it's not bad to get help from others all the time"
Tavros stared at Gamzee for a bit then smiled.

"Thanks" Gamzee pulled out his guitar and began playing, it was time for the next class. Tavros looked around "oh wow I lost track of time I need to go sorry Gamzee" Gamzee got up.

"What do you have now?"

"Uh health" wow it was right before the music room. Eh might as well walk with him. Gamzee slung the guitar strap over his chest and pushed the wheelchair.

"My class is near yours ill Take ya there bro"
"Uh...thanks..." Tavros covered his face with his hands and blushed. Gamzee noticed the action and chuckled. They got to the class on time "thank you Gamzee"

"No problem bro" Gamzee waved and walked into his class, he entered and saw a girl with Long black hair, she wore a red skirt with fishnet leggings, and a long black sleeved shirt.

Her name was Aradia Megido, one of the best female singers in the class. He was lucky that she always chose him for every music project they had assigned. Gamzee walked over and slung an arm around her, she turned and saw Gamzee's warm smile, she couldn't help but smile back.

"Hey sis" Gamzee said as he flipped her hair over her shoulder, she blushed "so are you ready to sing for our project?" She nodded and laughed.

"I'm always ready Gamzee" he smiled approvingly and moved his arm as they sat together. The Professor entered, she set a bulky folder in the desk. She looked up and smiled.

"Okay, today our projects are due!" She clapped "yay!" She gave a slight sarcastic tone which made Gamzee and Aradia snicker.
She looked around and decided who should sing first. She pointed to Gamzee and bent her finger "Mr. Makara get your partner and come start us off" Gamzee smiled, as he and Aradia got up they walked to the piano, they decided to use that for their project.

Gamzee sat down and Aradia stood standing, she began taking small voice exercises. She breathed in and nodded her head to Gamzee as he began to play. She took another breath and sang.

" I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house, That don't bother me"

Gamzee held the light mood, the room has fell quiet. Gamzee took a breath and sang.

" I can take a few tears now and then,
And just let them out.

I'm not afraid to cry,
Every once in a while even
Though goin' on,
With you gone still upsets me"

Aradia watched as he played the piano and sang with his eyes closed, she took a breath and sang again.

"There are days,
Every now and again I pretend I'm okay,
But that's not what gets me"

The melody has gotten a bit louder and Gamzee took over once more.

"What hurts the most,
Was being so close And having so much to say"
And watching you walk away"

he finally opened his eyes, for some reason, his felt tears run down his face. He wasn't upset, it was Just that singing has always gotten him emotional. He continued to play and sang.

" Never knowing,
What could have been,
And not seein' that lovin' you Is what I was tryin' to do."

"It's hard to deal with the pain,
Of losing you everywhere I go,
But I'm doin' it"

They sang the last part together.

" It's hard to force that smile when
I See our old friends and I'm alone Still harder
Gettin' up, gettin' dressed,
Livin' with this regret,
But I know if I could do it over"

And Gamzee moved his hands from the piano as they finished, the class clapped, as so did the Professor. Which was surprising.
Aradia looked at Gamzee and smiled brightly. He couldn't help but smile back.

The class had finished, but Gamzee and Aradia were held behind. Gamzee stood with Aradia in front if the Professor's desk. She looked at them and smiled.

"Amazing performance as usual and " Gamzee smiled as so did Aradia, the professor handed them a slip of paper, which had they're grade it was a solid A. They thanked her and left, once they got outside, Gamzee laughed as Aradia let out her happiness. Aradia jumped at Gamzee as he hugged her and laughed even more. He let go.

"Aradia, I have to go ask the Professor something, I'll meet you for lunch."

"Okay Gamzee, see ya later" Aradia waved and left. Gamzee walked back into the building and entered the music room again. Thank god that the Professor was still there, she looked up and saw Gamzee, she gave a rather welcoming smile.

"Hello is there something you need?" Gamzee nodded his head.

"Can I use this room as a way for my practices?" She smiled and nodded. That was quicker than he thought, he smiled "thanks professor, have a good lunch!" He called out as he left the room.

Gamzee met up with Aradia who was quite close to Tavros, they were friends for a Long time till they left to high school. Tavros smiled as he saw Gamzee walk over.

"Congrats on the 'A' Gamzee"

"Thanks bro it was all thanks to Aradia for her motherfuckin miraculous voice" Aradia blushed and Tavros laughed.

"You sang amazing Gamzee, what are you talking about, I have a Hard time singing and paying attention to you play!" Gamzee laughed. They finished the day and it was about 30 minutes before curfew Gamzee laid down in his bed, he heard the door open and slam. He looked over his shoulder, he saw Karkat stomp over to his bed and laid down.

Gamzee sat up and walked over to him. He knelt down in front of the bed and looked into Karkat's red contacts, then Karkat looked into his natural lavender eyes.

"Is there something wrong bro?" Gamzee looked at Karkat as he put an arm over him, Karkat turned over, facing away from Gamzee "whoa Karkat, you okay?" Gamzee sat on the bed and placed and hand over his leg "talk to me" Karkat stood silent as Gamzee then heard him mumble something "what was that? I couldn't hear you for a second there buddy" Karkat raised his voice to his regular tone.

"Leave me the Fuck alone" Gamzee was taken back "we're done..." Gamzee's eyes widen as he heard this, he got up and took his sweater slamming the door on his way out. Karkat closed his eyes and cried himself to sleep.
