Chapter 4- Contagious
Vriska laughed as she fell over her bed. "OH MY GOG KARKAAAAAT!"
"Fuck you Vriska! Your fucking metical ass can't comprehend such tragic events. And I'm serious; this is why I don't tell you anything!" Karkat slammed his head against the wall again. He shouldn't have told her, he knew she would laugh it up.
"Karkaaaaat, your such an idiot. Why would you even do that, some leader you are~." She dodged another pillow that was sent her way.
He was not in the mood.
~Previously~
Karkat did what he thought he of all trolls wouldn't do.
He kissed him.
Karkat smashed his lips against John's in need, while eager hands roamed his torso. He was shocked that John kissed back. He had to mentally slap himself to assure this wasn't another one of his dreams.
Karkat's mind registered it was in fact real, when he was pushed against the wall. John broke the kiss, looking with hazy eyes.
That moment, baby blue met bloody red.
"Karkat.. I.." The said troll cut him off with another kiss, but more forceful. Karkat bit into the soft pink lips, drawing blood. He lapped at the blood as it slowly trickled down.
"Karkat!" John shoved him away, his fingertips rushing to his lips. "Fuck.. sorry… Egbert.. I.." Karkat didn't finish his sentence as he sat up to his feet, running out of the room.
John sat there watching as Karkat ran down the hall. Bleeding mouth forgotten, he put his hand over his chest. It hurt.
~Back to present~
Karkat was about to storm off when Vriska caught his arm. "Karkat." She was serious; her face held no twisted emotions like it usually did. "You seriously flush for that human admit it!" Karkat shoved her arms away and crossed his own.
"The fuck makes you think I would have red feelings for that bulge shaping-"
"I never said RED FEELINGS, Karkat~"
Fuck.
She draped her arms lazily around his shoulders, whispering in his ear. "Your flushed~ I don't need to mess with your head on this one! The iron is blazing hot!" His face grew red as he shoved her away for the hundredth time.
"Fuck you!"
"You should save that for your matesprit!" She cackled as she ran out of the room avoiding flying objects.
Eridan sulked against the wall mumbling.
He checked his phone and sighed. "Wwhatever.. Like I need anyone to make me happy." Who was he kidding, he was desperate.
Eridan scrolled through his phone, his fingers brushing over his old rival's name. "I guess he wwill do for noww..."

caligulasAquarium ceased pestering TwinArmageddons.
Sollux cursed as he slammed his phone shut. "That athole doethen't liithten, oh well he wiill fiind out later." He stood up to leave when a vice called out behind him.
"Sollux! Wait for me!" Her black hair flowed behind her as she ran. She pushed up her goggles and smiled. "Where are we going?"
~Line Break~
Eridan leaned against one of the marble walls in the lobby. He was looking forward to his "date" with Sollux as he called it. He recently thought over and over about having a black quadrant again, but he didn't hate Sollux.. He must l-..
His thoughts were cut off when a rather loud protest jerked him to alert.
"-That glubbing shellfish bastard! Why do we have to go with him?!" That voice made him cringe and the depths of his heart ache. Eridan dared to glance over, but then wished he hadn't. Feferi was holding Sollux's hand while throwing the other in the air as she ranted on. Sollux on the other hand tuned her out and chewed on his bottom lip in annoyance.
Eridan turned on his heel to leave, when that bittersweet voice called out to him. "Eriidan!"
The said troll turned around smiling bitterly. Sollux took notice releasing Feferi's hand. "Thup fiith-Ii mean Eridan.." Eridan "Nyeh" and looked in another direction, a purple blush slowly creeping up his face. That double fanged smile always got him that way, no matter the situation. Just as Sollux was doing now.
"Tho what riide?"
~At the mirror halls~
"This wwas a fuckin' mirror wwasn't it?" Eridan rubbed his face as he slammed into another mirror. He hated these things, he only agreed because Sollux wanted to.
"Haha your so thupiid, you don't know what iis a-" Sollux slammed into a mirror falling into Eridan. "FUCK!" He fell on his face breaking his bi-colored glasses. "Sol are you okay? Wwhat happened." Eridan lifted him up and grabbed the chipped glasses. "Ii don't need your help athole.." He lifted himself up as he pushed Eridan away.
"Sol I think you need to sit dowwn."SLAM. Another mirror was hit. Sollux growled and hissed as he touched his burning face. "Fuck.. Eridan..You lead the way." Eridan carefully grabbed the other's hand and lead them through the maze. "Sol are you okay?" Sollux rubbed his face again then glanced up.
"Yeah, why the fuck you -" Eridan dropped their hands and turned around.
"Sol…" Eridan bit his lip as his eyes met Sollux's bi-colored ones. Sollux let out a breath he didn't know he held. "Eridan, what the fuck are you doiing? We need to get out of here thiith is driiviing me iithane." Eridan opened his mouth to say something when Feferi's voice rang out.
"Sollux?! Where are you! Glub! Stupid things!" Sollux sighed as he got to his feet again, just to be pulled down.
"Sol, listen to me.. Forget about Fef." Sollux's brows knitted together for the moment. "Eridan thhe needth our help."
"She wwants your help! And that's a no!"
"Eriidan!"
"SOL SHUT YOUR TRAP AND LISTEN TO ME!"
Sollux stared at the sudden outburst. "Eridan.." A scarf wrapped around his shoulders as a hand covered his mouth. "Shh.." Eridan pulled them down on the floor as Feferi's figure passed by. Eridan let go when she left. He tried to get up, but his lower half was kneed rather uncomfortably. Sollux winced as his leg made contact with Eridan.
"Sol.. fuckin' seriously your leg? Are you tryin' to turn me on?" Sollux growled as he pushed the seaweller off. "Fuck no! Why would anyone do that-" Eridan slammed his mouth over Sollux's to shut him up.
Sollux blinked, his thoughts raced as his eyes glazed over. His thoughts screamed and his whole being ached for that long desire that he didn't know he had.
He shocked himself even more when he kissed back hungrily. All what he had thought about the seaweller left his mind, as new ones filled. Thoughts of not hate but love. Eridan broke the kiss, leaving a panting Sollux. "Sol.. hate to cut this short, but wwe got to get out of here." He smiled tenderly as Eridan spoke.
They both got up hand in hand and walked out of the mirror halls.
Eridan let go of Sollux's hand as they reached the exit, a warm breeze met his skin making him tingle. He felt at ease, but the lack of warmth of the Sollux's hand left him cold. Feferi later joined them, a bit mad at the fact they left her. Eridan tried to hold back a grin as Sollux sighed.
This was the happiest he ever has been, and to have thought, he had once hated his lover. Eridan shook that off as he walked with them back to the hotel.
His hands brushed Sollux's as they walked; the said troll smiled and held Eridan's gently.
Sheesh, that was a lot to type... the next update is going to be in 5 days! Be prepared for some JohnKat, it is rather long, but might or might not be shorted to keep the rating.
