A big first.
This pairing was requested by ganglyChameleon and another guest. I hope you enjoy! :3
Title: "Pay Attention"
Pairing: Sollux x Karkat
Warning(s): Karkat's mouth… I feel like I shouldn't even be warning you guys about him anymore, I mean seriously.
Karkat walked into his room and shut the door. He threw his backpack on his bed, and immediately took a seat at his desk. He opened his laptop and turned it on. It was his same afterschool routine everyday.
He logged into his messaging programs; pesterchum and Skype. He used both of them frequently, even though he just used them to be a total dick most of the time. At least, that's what everyone else thought.
After getting his social networks in check, Karkat went to YouTube to look at some stupid video. It was one of those things that could actually make him laugh, which was pretty surprising.
Before he could actually log into YouTube, however, his Skype ringtone went off and none other then Sollux Captor's picture popped up on the screen. He was calling Karkat, even though they'd just seen each other a half an hour ago.
Karkat sighed and clicked 'answer'. There, the video chat popped up with a smiling Sollux, "Hey KK! What's up?"
"Hello fuckass," He said dryly as he clicked back to his YouTube tab on the internet.
Sollux blinked, "Well, don't you sound excited…" He mumbled. He watched Karkat, who didn't seem to be paying attention to him. He seemed to be watching something else, instead of his face.
Karkat of course was watching cat videos, just because Sollux was apparently not interesting enough to talk to at the time. Sollux didn't know that though, so he still continued to talk, not knowing that his friend wasn't paying attention.
"Well, I wanted to talk to you over video chat because our science project needs to be done by Monday. We haven't really worked on it, so I suggest you come over this weekend so we can."
Karkat didn't answer; he was too busy watching a video of some cats riding a skateboard. He had no idea why, but it was way more interesting then a conversation about science.
"KK, come on," Sollux grumbled, "Pay attention, this is important."
The troll was still not listening.
Sollux pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose, "Karkat, stop being an asshole, seriously."
He still wasn't listening. Except now, he just decided to watch a video of a dog saying 'I Love You'.
"Karkat Vantas, I love you!"
Karkat blinked. Did the dog just say that it loved him? No, that was certainly not the dog. He immediately clicked away from YouTube and starred at Sollux's face on the video.
"What?"
Sollux smiled cutely on the video, not answering his question.
"You're a fuckass of a boyfriend, you know that right?" Karkat grimaced.
"Hey, at least you finally started to pay attention."
That was stupid. OMJ.
I love Solkat, but I seriously just went blank on a plot for this, mostly because I was distracted by the final episode of True Blood, which was freaking insane.
R&R and request more pairings! :3 I've got 33 so far!
