Oh. My. Glub. Terezi can't get enough of me apparently. She keeps coming over. Gah! Too bad i never asked Harley out. I still Love her I think. But Our chances are over. She got married a few years ago. That's why i'm here in New York. I needed to get away from her. Kanaya called a few days ago asking me to go over there with her. I thought she was with Rose. Well, I guess i was wrong.
"Hey kaaarkaaat!" Terezi called from the shower.
"WHAT IS IT!?"
"It's just that I want you in here!"
"NO! WHEN YOU'RE FINISHED WITH THE SHOWER I'M LEAVING FOR THE NEXT FLIGHT. "
"Awww...but I wanted something..."
"NO!" I left to go pack. I packed everything that would fit in my bag. She said I just needed to be back in Texas by Sunday which is in two days. So after I packed, I put it all in the car, only to go back inside to see a toweled Terezi in the doorway. Man she looks pissed.
"Where do you think you're going?"
"I'm going to Texas, Kanaya needs me. For some reason."
"Oh well bye then! I'll just take care of your house~!"
"No you don't! Get the fuck out of my house and go to your own."
"I don't think so."
"Fine. Good bye."
"Bye!" Terezi grinned and went inside.I sighed and drove to the airport. In a town like this, there should be a plane. I had all my money with me so if Terezi is looking for it she has a big surprise coming to her. I got out my phone on a red light and called Kanaya.
"Hello?" I heard her stylish voice on the other end.
"Hey. It's Me, Karkat. I'm on my way. I'll probably be there tomorrow."
"So you decided to come now did you darling! Good News! Hurry here!"
"Sure whatever." I hung up and started to pull in to the airport. with in a few moments I found a parking spot and parked. Getting out I looked at the striped with black glass tall building. I sucked up a big breath of air and sighed. What did I just get myself into? I'm at an air port, with out a ticket, with out knowing what time the plane I need is coming. Damn, I'm an idiot. Face palming and shaking my head, I walked in to the air port first grabbing my stuff.
"Hello 2iir. May II plea2e 2ee your tiicket?" He had a lisp with his "s".
"I do not have one yet. I need the next plane to Dallas. How much is that gonna be, and what time will it be?" He smirked.
"Iit'2 none of my busiine22 but why?"
"A friend needs me."
"Ah. It'll be 500 dollars. It leaves in about 20 minutes." He turned around as the tickets were printing, then gave them to me.
"Thanks."
"No problem bro. Have a good day."
"You too." I yelled as I was running to the entrance. I looked at what gate I would be in. Gate B. Started looking. If it's B it should be on the ground floor right? I found it and sat in the waiting lounge. I had about 15 minutes to wait, so I decided to do some thinking. What the hell did Kanaya need me for? Maybe her and Rose adopted a kid?Nah, they're not kid people. At least I don't think so. I wonder how much has changed since I left. I wonder how Jade is...No. I can't think of that. I felt the pain in my chest again. Soon I heard the attendant call for my flight. I went though security and got on my plane. I shifted uncomfortably in my seat until I found the correct position for me. I sat by the window and watched as the world moved around me. I felt my ears pop when we got high.
I looked down at he world. Everything seemed so much smaller. I slept on this thought.
I awoke to the plane coming down and the wheels bumping against the pavement. I yelled "FUUUUUCK!"
This caused people to look back at me and some even laughed. Others just didn't give a damn. I blushed and decided to not say another word. I got up, got my duffel bag and waited in line to leave. I got a few strange looks. But that was to be expected, after all I just said yelled fuck. Blushing I got off the plane and soon found my car in the parking lot. i hope they still live where they used to.
So I started my drive to Sherman. I got to their old driveway in about thirty minutes. Outside was a dark pool of a sky. I put the car in park, and stepped out. For a moment, I could just stand there and look at the night sky. The stars were millions of sliver dots and the sky seemed to drink light from the moon as if it were an infant feeding. I shook my head and Walked up to the door. Knock. That was all it took or Rose to come flying out out of the door. Light shreded my eyes.
Yep this is the right house. "Hey Karkat! I'm glad you are here. Come in." She opened the door wider and let me in. Inside was white carpet, bashe carpet, and a flat screen TV by the door where I stood. Everything was open.
"Thanks Rose. But Kanaya was the one to call me. I'm glad t be here too."
"I know. She lives with me. Please tell me you brought your stuff."
"I did."
"Alright. Good."
"Will you please tel me what the hell is going on?"
"You'll see tomorrow. Here lay on the couch you must be tired." She left to go get a blanket and put it and a pillow on the couch.
"Thanks Rose. Hey how is everyone?" Rose smiled with her black lips and finished setting the blankets.
"Sit down and we'll talk about that." I sat down on the couch which was incredibly soft. "where should we start?"
"Well, you and Kanaya." I shrugged. I didn't want to go to Jade right away.
"Kanaya and I have been going out for six years now. We've stayed here, obviously. She works as a fashion designer and fashion magazine writer. I on the other hand, am a psychologist. We are pretty well. Who next?"
"Uh, Gamzee? Is it safe to assume he's still a drug addict?"
"Yes, it is. But he's a bit better. He got a job at the drug testing so i think he's pretty happy."
"What about Jade?"
"Jade, well. Her Husband died two years ago. She owns a flower shop and raises John. She seems pretty happy."
"Oh."
"Yes. well you better get to sleep. Tomorrow is your big day. When Kanaya needs you." She smiled and I laid down. I got comfy and she walked to the room by the door and turned off the light muttering, "Goodnight." I wonder what's gonna happen tomorrow...
