You woke up in the morning in a good mood, oddly. Your mind automatically drifted to thoughts of Dave and the kiss. At first you thought maybe that night was a dream, so you checked your phone and sure enough, the texts from Dave last night were there. You closed your blinds. "Fucking sun" you cursed to yourself. You got on the computer and surfed the net for a little bit. That got boring quick so you got on Pesterchum. There weren't a lot of people on. Just Dave and John. You pestered John for a bit. "HEY JOHN. WHAT'S UP?"
"Hey KK. Just sitting here as usual admiring my movie posters, you?"
"OH, THAT'S COOL I SUPPOSE. I'M NOT DOING MUCH OF ANYTHING."
"So I heard you and Dave hung out yesterday."
"Shit." you thought to yourself. Would Dave really tell John about the kiss? I mean they are best friends, but he seemed embarrassed about the whole thing when he rushed out of the apartment yesterday.
"OH.. YEAH?"
"Yeah, what did you two do?"
"UH WE JUST PLAYED SOME VIDEO GAMES."
"Oh? I heard you did a little more than that Karkar ;)"
Fucking Strider. That fucking prick actually told somebody that we kissed.
"UH.. WHAT DID YOU HEAR EXACTLY?"
"I think you know Karkar ;)"
"FUCK YOU JOHN WE DIDN'T DO SHIT."
With that you stopped pestering John. You were pissed off enough as it was you didn't think you needed to keep talking to him.
You walked over to your bed and threw yourself on to it and cursed into the pillow. That fucking Strider was always causing shit. But even so you were still so attracted to him. You really didn't know why. You remember when you two first met you fucking hated the guy. Enough thinking about your history with Dave. You decided to go back to your computer, Dave was pestering you. What did this fuck ass want?
"Hey Karkitten"
"DAVE I FUCKING HATE YOU"
"I'm guessing John told you?"
"NO FUCKING SHIT YOU FUCKING PRICK"
Dave didn't say anything, you guessed he didn't know what to say.
"WHY DID YOU EVEN TELL ANYONE ABOUT THAT?"
"I.. don't know I guess I was... happy about it?"
He was happy about kissing you? Dave Strider, the guy who everyone thought was cool, was happy to kiss you, Karkat Vantas, a lonely troll who seemed like he hated everyone. Questions were buzzing through your mind. The biggest one being 'why?' so that's what you asked.
"UH.. WHY?"
"I've actually liked you for a while KitKat"
Did he really just say that? You were sure you were dreaming. He liked you? You were sure he would never actually have feelings for you. Why would he?
Dumbstruck you said goodbye to Dave in a rush and clicked the x to get out of Pesterchum.
Could this actually be happening? The guy you've had a crush on for a while.. er.. you think..actually likes you too? You decided to try and take your mind off of it and watch a scary movie. You didn't like scary movies much, but you figured if you were scared shitless you'd stop thinking about Strider right? You put the scariest movie you had into the disc tray. You remember when Vriska gave this to you just to scare you with the fucked up image on the front. By the end of the movie it was dark outside and sure enough Dave fucking Strider was still on your mind. Along with the horror flick you had just watched. Wonderful. Two things were for sure, you weren't sleeping tonight, and you liked Dave Strider.
