Hey guys! I hope you enjoyed that last chapter. Hehe. Here's this one, please enjoy.
Nepeta P.O.V
I sat there awkwardly in my chair. My crush is going to be my... my... s-step brother?! I was dazed in thoughts and about how awkward this situation would be..
"And, we're all moving in together!" Kenton said with a smile on his face. I banged my face to the table repeatedly, unsure what to do. Meulin started to do the same.
"So, when we get home, you two start packing because we're moving into a different house than we are in now!" Mom said with the same smile Kenton had. Dear lord, what did I do to deserve this, of all things? Why? Just.. Why?
The rest of the night was them chatting away about how fun it will be and how much of a good time we'll have together as a family. After that was done and over with, Meulin and I didn't speak a word on the way home. I went straight to my room and so did Meulin. I put on my pajama's and went straight to sleep. I just wanted to forget this...
The next day at school was awkward. Meulin and I sat next to each other again. Horuss and Equius were worried again. I wrote a note to Equius on what happened and his jaw dropped and the he showed Horuss. Horuss made this weird horse sound that made him sound really upset. Meulin cracked a smile at the noise he made and so did I. Horuss and Equius started doing horse noises to make us laugh, and it did.
When we got to school, Equius walked me to class like yesterday and we parted ways when we reached my first period. My eye's met with Karkat's. We both blushed and then looked away. I took my seat and didn't really talk to anyone that day, until lunch.
"Hey, Nep" Karkat surprisingly walked me to our table and told me to sit next to him. He was blushing like an idiot, I probably was to, but why was he?...
We took our seats as I pulled out my lunch, even though I really didn't feel like eating. Then I looked up and Karkat was turned towards me, kind of... glaring...
"U-Uhm... Yes?" I said nervously.
"So... We're basically step brother and sister now... Right?" He said with a bluntly.
"Uh, yea, I guess so.." I told him.
"Does that mean you get my last name?" He asked. It's not like I already wrote "Nepeta Vantas" all over the inside of my journal already.
"Uhm, I'm not to sure. I guess we'll find out after the wedding." I told him, really unsure about what he asked. He shrugged.
"What's this about a wedding?" It was Terezi Pyrope. Karkat's crush and ex.
"It's none of you're damn business!" He told her.
"Hey guys! Oh come on. You two can tell me. Did Nepeta finally come forward with her feelings?" I jumped and shook my head at Terezi violently. Not like she could see me.
"What do you mean?" He asked with a confused look.
"Oh, well never mind then. Talk to you two later!" She left with a grin on her face.
"What was she talking about?" Karkat asked.
"O-Oh, nothing. Just Terezi being Terezi. Heheheheh..." I told him, laughing awkwardly. He gave me one last suspicious look before eating the rest of his lunch and I did the same.
I got on the bus and sat next to Equius. We talked until my stop. Meulin and I got off and headed to our rooms like usual. I kept packing until around 8 to 9 o'clock. I took a shower, got ready for bed and then fell asleep instantly.
The next morning was normal like always. Got ready, went on the bus, sat next to Equius, Equius walked me to class. All that. I walked into class and took my seat. I sighed and looked around the room, when my eye's met with Karkats, again. I quickly looked away, probably blushing like an idiot. That's when Aradia came up to my desk.
"Hey Nepeta" she said with a smile.
"Oh, hello Aradia" I smiled back.
"Both you and Karkat have been acting strange since Monday. Is there something wrong?" She asked concerned.
"O-oh. W-well.." I thought about whether I should tell her or not. Aradia was pretty trust worthy and a good friend... "Well. I'll tell you but you can't tell anyone else, or tell Karkat you know." I whispered to her.
"Oh, I won't tell. I'll be as quiet as the dead" she said with a small giggle. What is with her and dead things?
"Well... Karkitty and I are going to be... Uhm.. Step-brother and Step-Sister... Along with Kankri being my Step-Brother and Meulin being their Step-Sister..." I whispered as quietly as I could. She gasped loudly, causing the class room to turn heads. "Shhh!" I griped at her.
'B-but don't you have a crush on Karkat?" She asked worried.
"Well, yea. But I guess this is going how things are going to be from now on.." I told her with a sigh. She patted me on the shoulder. Then I heard footsteps behind us. It was Karkat.
"So. Uhm. Nepeta, can I talk to you for a second?" He then looked at Aradia, "In private?" Aradia nodded and then left.
"So, what was Terezi talking about yesterday?" He asked confused.
"Oh, like I said that was nothing. I promise" I nervously laughed.
"Nepeta, that wasn't nothing. Now tell me, I am you 'brother' now" he put quotes around the brother part. I want to be more than a sister to you...
"Karkitty, I promise, it was nothing" I lied.
"Fine. I'll ask Terezi then," my eye's widened.
I sighed, "Fine then, but don't act awkward afterwords" I told him. He looked at me confused and shrugged, then walked away. This is not good...
Karkat P.O.V.
After first period my classes were normal. But at lunch I went to find Terezi. I saw her sitting by the cool kids. Vriska, Kanaya, Feferi, Eridan, and Tavros. Tavros wasn't cool at all, but Vriska made him sit there. I felt kind of bad for him. I ignored it anyways and went up to Terezi.
"Hey, Terezi, can I talk to you for a minute?" I asked. The whole table looked up at me.
"Well, sure Karkles" she crackled and then followed me to the hallway.
"What you said yesterday. With the whole Nepeta feelings thing. What did you mean?" I asked. She laughed.
"Karkles, I may be blind, but I'm not that blind. No one is" she laughed again.
"What do you mean" I was loosing some of my patience.
"Hmmm. Did she give you permission that you can ask me and I could tell?" She grinned.
"Yes, now tell me" I lied..
"She likes you Karkles!" She started laughing, "Not in the friendly way. But in the way we used to be!" She kept laughing,"Well, now you know. Don't screw it up, Karkles." She left back into the lunch room while a grin wide upon her face. Nepeta... likes me?... I stood there dumbfounded.
Unable to speak or move; only staring at the ground. Then I felt someone looking at me. I slowly turned to see Nepeta looking at me behind a corner. She gasped when I looked at her and went back into the lunch room. I followed her but she was sitting with the jocks, and me being part of the non-popular a.k.a punching bag group, I didn't bother her.
Nepeta P.O.V
I can't believe Terezi told him! I can't really blame her since he did lie to her, but still.. I was scared to death of what Karkat would think of me. He lost his patience enough with me just being me, and now I was his sister along with him knowing how I feel? He's probably not going to talk to me at all. I sighed. Oh well...
After school, I ad Equius come over to help me pack and so I could tell him what happened. Equius may be one of the most wisest people I know, but he himself didn't know what to do in this situation. After a while of packing, it got late so he went home. I didn't get much sleep, to worried about what was going to happen next..
The next morning I woke up to the smell of fresh pancakes. I smiled lightly. At least I get a nice sweet breakfast today. I got dressed and walked down stairs and ate my breakfast. Meulin and I walked to the bus stop after words. I took a seat next to Equius with a sweet smile on my face. We talked about random things until we got to the school. Equius walked me to class like usual. When I walked into the class room, I blinked. And in that time someone grabbed my arm and took me out of the class room. I gasped and was gently placed against the wall. The person who took me out of the class room in front of me. I opened my eyes a blinked. I looked slightly up to see Karkat. He was lightly blushing and had the sour expression he's famous for.
"I have to ask you something" he said looking me straight in the eye. I blushed like an idiot.
"What is it Karkitty?" I asked, trying be play it cool and act normal.
"Do you like me?" He asked. His candy red eyes staring into my olive green ones. Sure, his eyes were an odd and rare color at most, but that was one of the things I loved about him.
"I-..." I didn't know exactly what to say. I had no true words to express how I felt. At that moment the bell rang.
"Shit" he muttered under his breath. He grabbed my hand and took me to the secluded teachers would last think of. The Janitors closet.
"Okay, no one should find us here" he stated, looking out the small window which was the only thing that provided light.
"Now, answer my question" he demanded. I closed my eyes.
"Yes" I said it quick. He sighed and then grumbled something.
"A-and I know we can't have that sort of relationship, since ya know, the marriage thing. S-so if you can ju-" I was interrupted by a kiss. My eye's shot wide open unsure what to do. I was shaking, my heart was going 5,000 miles an hour, my palms started to sweat, my thoughts overflowing and my face over heating. I was scared to move but something in me made the decision to close my eyes and kiss back. Karkat and I. We kissed. Not sexually. Not intensely. But sweet and kind. That kiss lasted until the bell rang and we parted. I opened my eyes and saw him blushing horribly. I smiled at him.
"We should probably get to the next class before we're caught" I chuckled.
"Oh... uhm.. yea.." He spoke quietly and opened the door and we both left the janitors closet.
When it came around lunch, Karkat and I couldn't look at each other with out blushing outrageously.
Karkat P.O.V
Why the hell did I kiss her? What came over me? I don't even have those type of feelings for her.. Do I?... I couldn't look at Nepeta without blushing like an idiot. I sighed to myself. The rest of the day was me trying to avoid eye contact with her. Hell, I couldn't look at myself without having a thousand questions enter my mind.
Nepeta P.O.V
(Time Skip)
It's been a few weeks since me and Karkat have kissed and we haven't spoken a word. But today was a Saturday and my sister and mom were finally moving into the new house. Along with Karkat... Kanrki... and.. Kenton. I sighed and kept loading the boxes into the truck. And along with all the other things involving the Vantas family... This will not go well...
