= Be Sollux

You have to admit, you've been avoiding Karkat. He's texted and called you but you've ignored them all. You feel like an asshole but your head is a jumbled mess and talking with Karkat will only confuse you father. Ever since Rose left on Friday (you're still wondering why she wasn't at school and how she knew you weren't) you can't stop thinking about what being with Karkat would be like. Some thoughts of yours were sweet and innocent, like kissing him, holding his hand, and cuddling him. Others were more...dirty.

And thinking of all of this has only succeeded in giving you a massive headache. Your mom has left you mostly alone all weekend and you're grateful. But now, on Sunday night as you lay face down on your bed, you hear your door open. you know it's not your mother, she always knocks. You suspect it's Rose again, or maybe Karkat. You lift your head from your pillow and look towards the door. Seeing someone you never wanted to see again. Eridan Ampora, your ex-boyfriend.

The story of you two is one you don't want to relive. A story you've never told anyone. Two years ago, when Eridan still went to school with you, you dated him. It was a relationship that had all you could ever want. You thought you had loved him. So after five months, you made the worst decision. You slept with him. Then he dumped you. After being devastated and depressed for a week you went back to school. You found out that it was all a dare. It was all a ploy to get you to have sex with him. And it worked. You fell for it. Soon after, Eridan moved, and you were glad. But all his friends still made fun of you. So you did the only thing you could do. You went up to the biggest guy there, and you punched him the face. After that the teasing stopped, thankfully.

And now here is, standing in your room, smirking slightly and supporting that dumb-as-fuck purple streak in his hair. You sit up slowly, staring at him. He's wearing a purple sweatshirt and black skinny jeans. You would've thought he looked good in them if you weren't so busy glaring at him. "Sol, it's great to see you again" His voice makes you cringe and if looks could kill, he'd be dead three times over now. He's still smirking, like he knows something that you don't "What the fuck are you doing here?" You growl, getting straight to the point. He only continues to smirk. "I can't visit my ex without being questioned?" There goes that weird ass accent you used to think was cute.

"No you can't now leave" He closes your bedroom door and walks towards you. Out of reflex you scoot back till your back hits the wall. He sits on the edge of your bed. He looks at you with eyes that look...almost sad. You look back at him cautiously and he sighs. "Sol...im sorry" You just stare at him, that's not what you were expecting at all. "y-you're what?" He looks down to his hands and fumbles with them. "I'm sorry..for everything. I didn't mean for it all to happen and..well, i miss you."

You stare at him wide-eyed. For a year and a half you waited for him to utter those words. For so long you wanted this. You wanted him to say sorry and for him to love you. But now...now you don't know. You can't deny your feelings for him cause they're there. They'll always be there. He was the first person you loved, of course you'll always have feelings for him. But are they romantic feelings? You may still love him, but are you in love with him? "Sollux, please. I really want another chance at us" You stay silent unsure of what to say but you do move so you're sitting next to him, no longer feeling threatened.

You stare at the ground and refuse to make eye contact with him. He broke your heart and you know you should tell him to get his ass out. But you don't. You feel a grip on your chin and suddenly you're looking into the blue-purple eyes you used to get lost in. "Please Sol, just one more chance?" You see him lean in slowly, giving you enough time to stop him. But you don't. You let him lean forward. You let his lips touch yours. You let it happen. Then you do something you know you'll regret later. You kiss him back. Then you jumps back away from him as your door slams open.

"Captor! Wh-" You whip your head to see Karkat standing in the door way, his face a mix of surprise and confusion. You're instantly reminded of what you've thought of all weekend. "o-oh..Karkat i-" "I-I need to go" He turns quickly and walks out of your room in a hurry. You stand up to go after him but you're stopped by Eridan grabbing your hand. "Sol? What's wrong? Who is he?" You stumble over your words "H-He's a uh, a f-friend.." You pull out of his grip

"I have to go see him. You should leave. Don't come back." You hurry out of the room, hoping he's gone by the time you get back. You know you're not together with Karkat but you feel as if you did something horrible to him. The look on his face right before he turned around looked like he was about to cry. You don't know why he would cry about this but you want to make sure he's okay.

=Be Karkat

You're so fucking stupid! What the hell were you thinking?! Why would you ever trust him?! You kick a nearby tree in anger as more tears fall down your cheeks. You can't even really explain why you're so angry. Sollux has been ignoring you ever since he left your house on Friday. So you went to see if he was alright or if he was just being an asshole. And you walk in on him making out with some hipster kid you've never seen before.

It's no use. You can't deny it anymore. You have feelings for him. That makes you so angry. Why do you have to fall for every person that's nice to you?! You groan and drop to the ground, leaning against the tree you had previously kicked. After leaving Solluxs house you ran to the woods, knowing you could be alone here. You know almost every inch of these woods. You liked to explore amongst the trees when things at home get particularly bad. You lean your head back and let yourself cry. What does that hipster asshole have that you don't? Why does Sollux have to like him?

Of course he does. Because he's not a complete wreck from a dysfunctional family like you. You don't deserve someone like Sollux. You just hope after your anger dies down you two can still be friends. You don't want to be alone again. Oh god, you don't want to be alone. You bring your knees to your chest and lay your head down on them. What if he doesn't want to be friends with you now? You don't want to be lonely again. But...you don't want to be hurt either. You hadn't realized you had started sobbing audibly until you heard Sollux. "Kk?"

You jump and look up. He's standing next to you, looking down at you with worried eyes. You can't look at him without wanting to sob again so you lay your head back down on your knees so you dont have to look at him. You hear a shuffling then suddenly arms around you and you stiffen. You peak over and see Sollux sitting next to you, his arms wrapped around you in a hug. "Kk, what's wrong" "Nothing" Is all you mutter before placing you head back down. You hear him sigh "Then why are you crying?" You stay silent "Look, i'm sorry i ignored you this weekend, i've just got a lot on my mind." You lift your head and glare half-heartedly at him "If you didn't want to be my friend you could've just fucking said so."

He looks surprised but then he furrows his eyebrows. "If i didn't want to be your friend why would i be here now?" You shrug and but your head back down. "Kk, what's wrong" You sigh "Nothing im fine" "That's bullshit and you know it" You stay silent, refusing to look him in the eye. "...Is this about Eridan?" You finally look at him "Who?" "Eridan. The guy i was with in my room."You look away, half embarrassed. "No.." Sollux stays quiet for a moment before speaking up. "Look Karkat, whatever me and Eridan had before, it's over"

You scoff and roll your eyes "Yea that's why you were fucking making out with him in your room" He sighs and you look over to see him hanging his head. "I...I know it looks weird. But...I don't want him. He did a horrible thing to me and i can never forgive him. I know I kissed him but in doing that i realized im no longer in love with him" He never once looks at you and you wonder what this Eridan guy could've done that was so bad. "What'd he do?" You whisper, your eyes trained on his glasses, trying to see his eyes.

You see him swallow hard before he talks, his voice cracking a bit. "u-um...well..i dated him for a few months. Then i s- uh..then i slept with him...after that he dumped me. I found out it was all fake. Everything." You can see his bottom lip quivering and then a tear roll down his cheek. Without thinking you move to wrap your arms around his neck, pulling him close to you. He wraps his arms tighter around your torso and lays his head on your shoulder. You can feel his body shaking with what you guess is silent sobs. You never thought you'd see Sollux like this. You always thought he was a strong person. Well you guess if this happened to you, you'd be sobbing too.

You hold him for another minute before he pulls back, taking off his glasses and wiping at him eyes. "Are you okay Sollux?" He nods and goes to put his glasses back on but you stop him. He looks up at you, one eyebrow raised. You feel your face heat up slightly "I like seeing your eyes" He stares at you for a moment before smiling, putting his glasses down. "Well, i'm glad someone likes them" You smiles slightly and look down, playing with your hands. You both stay silent for a few minutes before Sollux speaks up. "kk, why were you crying" You bite your lip, if anytime is a good time to say you have feelings for him, it's now. You sigh and look to him. "w-well...i guess it just...bothered me that...um..y-you and..um.." You can't see to form the right words so you stop, looking down to your hands, acting like they're the most interesting things in the world right now.

"Bothered you that i what? That i kisses him?" You hesitate then nod shyly. God you feel like the biggest wimp, you can't even say it out loud. He stays silent and that just makes you nervous. You feel like getting up and running as far as you can to get away from him but you don't. Instead you stare at the ground and play with the grass. The next thing you know you're staring into Sollux's eyes, his hand holding your chin. He stares into your eyes and you stare back. You've never seen eyes so pretty before. You feel a bit weird calling Sollux's eyes pretty but you can't think of any other word."I don't want him." He whispers and you realize just how close his face is to yours, only a few inches separate you two.

You bite your lip and before you can really comprehend what you're saying, you already say it. "Who do you want?" You don't have time to swear at yourself mentally because his lips are on yours. You're so surprised that you freeze. Your eyes widen but you soon comprehend what's going on. Sollux is kissing you. He's kissing you. He's kissing you. Finally you kiss back, letting your eyes fall closed. His hand is still holding your chin and you can feel his lips moving against yours. You're stomach is twisting and you feel like your heart by rip out of your chest and fly away. You can't believe this is happening. You just met this boy. A week ago you didn't know who Sollux Captor was. Three days ago, if someone was to ask you if you wanted to kiss him, you would've said hell no.

But now. Now as you sit in the woods, his lips against yours, you realize how much you really like him. He's been so nice to you with no reason for doing so. He just accepted you the way you are and has yet to tell you that how you act or what you like is wrong. You're snapped out of your thoughts when he pulls away. You open your eyes to see his looking back at you. "You." It takes you a second to realize what he's talking about but when you do, you blush. "r-really?" He chuckles and nods.

You smile then throw yourself forward, wrapping your arms around his neck. He leans back a bit as you hit him but wraps his arms around your torso and you nuzzle your face against his neck, smiling widely. The last time you remember being this happy was when you were five and your dad took you to the amusement park. Not even thought of your dad can ruin this moment. After a few minutes of just sitting there in his arms he speaks up. "We should leave" You nod and let him go, backing up.

He stands up and holds out a hand out to you. You grab it and stand up but he doesn't let go as you too walk out of the woods. "Can we go to your house? I don't want to go home yet" He looks to you and nods, smiling. "Yeah sure." You guys walk in silence for a few minutes hand in hand as you walk back to Solluxs house. "I'm sorry for ignoring you kk" He says, not looking at you. You shrug. "It's okay" "I was kind of having a hard time figuring out my feelings for you so i uh, kind just wanted to think without being distracted..." You blush a bit but chuckle. "I distract you?" You can see him roll his eyes. "Yes very much, your typing is distracting and annoying" "Oh fuck you" He smirks a bit and you two walk into his house. "We'll get to that later"
