you shove your hand in the bag, as deep as it can go. you slosh your hand back and forth a bit before locking hold onto a small Sickle. oh god.
Roxy peers at the object.
"Karkat!" she shouts.
"What?" He says angrily. he hadn't been paying attention.
he looks over and sees you holding his sickle replica.
"oh. fuck." he says, getting up anyway.
you look at the bags under his eyes and sigh inwardly. you didn't have anything against Karkat, but his fiery temper isn't exactly your idea of fun.
Roxy grabs the two of you and shoves you into a closet, rather roughly actually.
"Watch it!" karat shouts to Roxy.
she smirks.
"Have fun you two! and remember, ya get seven minutes!" she closed the closet door.
it took a few seconds for your eyes to adjust to the dimness, and even then you could hardly make out Karkat's nubby horns in the darkness. you were actually quite content with just sitting there, but you knew you should probably speak up.
"so um.. how'd you like the party?" you ask shyly.
"it was alright I guess... I'm not too big on crowds."
"yeah, thats what I was thinking when I arrived." you smile a little.
you couldn't really tell but you think Karkat smiles a bit too.
"so um... aren't you supposed to like... kiss in the closet?" you say.
Karkat scoffs. "you don't believe in that crap do you?"
you shrug, hoping he can see you.
"I mean, it's fine if you do. I'm not judging you or anything." he scoots a bit closer. "I don't know you very well, but... you seem cool, (y/n)." he says.
your heart skips a beat and your cheeks go red. acting purely on instinct, you lean forward to kiss him on the cheek- however, your aim could use some work- you end up crashing your lips on his.
he gasps slightly, and you pull away.
"s-sorry! I- meant to kiss you on the ch-cheek- oh fuck." you stutter, your face completely red.
Karkat leans over and kisses you.
your heart feels like it explodes. you lean into his kiss, his grey nose pressing against yours. he wraps his arms around you and you let out a tiny moan before-
"TIME'S UP SUCKERS!" Dave swings the door open, you and Karkat in the middle of a rather intimate moment. you pull away quickly.
"D-dude! knock before you do that!" you say, your face red.
you look over to Karkat, and he was blushing furiously.
even in the midst of your shame, you can't help but notice how adorable he is.
