I'd Only Choose You

by MiyaWritesThings

Karkat and Terezi have lived on Earth for several months now, and their relationship has strengthened greatly. So Karkat decides to ask Terezi something very important...with a ring involved. Alternate ending to Alone Together Forever by adiosToredor, after chapter 8. Rated T for language and suggestive material. PART 1 IN THE New Planet, New Life SERIES.

10. Chapter 10

The next day, Karkat sighed as he got up for work. Mr. Jones had reduced his work hours from 7 am to 6 pm to 7 am to 4 pm, so Karkat was at least relieved about that.

Karkat honestly hated work. Sure, Mr. Jones and that Cole person were okay, but he didn't like anyone else. He hated what he had to do, he hated his uniform, and he hated being away from Terezi. Especially for twelve hours at max.

He looked back at Terezi, who was sleeping in bed. She looked so helpless and cute, even though she would murder Karkat if he said that to her face.

Karkat smiled and walked over to the bed. He bent down and kissed Terezi's forehead. Terezi flinched and let out a sigh as she rolled over. Karkat chuckled softly and smoothed his hair down. "See you this evening," he whispered.

Karkat sighed as he stuffed his paper bag lunch into his cubby. He jerked around, as he felt a tapping on the back of his shoulder.

"Car-Cat, right?"

"Karkat," Karkat corrected. "One word. K's, not C's."

"Oh, sorry."

Karkat grunted.

"Is something wrong?" Cole asked.

Karkat smiled. "Oh, no, everything's great!" he exclaimed sarcastically. "I'm just really tired, really bored, and I've barely begun to plan a wedding with my fiancée!"

"Oh, um, sorry if I'm stressing you out."

"Actually, I'm always stressed out to some extent, so I'm used to it.
