Happy chapter 10! And thank you guys so much for the 27 reviews. They are all so precious to me. Any who, here is the prompt from Leok. And, as I've said, I don't mind writing any type of ship. So let's begin!
Nepeta sighed. It was her lunch period, and her longtime love, Karkat Vantas, was sitting beside her. She didn't know what was worse. Trying to hide the constant blush on her face, or deal with the fact that he might not like her back.
"What's the matter, Nepeta?" he asked.
"Uh, nothing! Nothing at all! Ha ha!" she laughed awkwardly. He still looked concerned, but decided to let it go. Her best friend, Equius, also looked at her. But he knew the reason for her distress.
"So, Nepeta, I've been wondering," Karkat started. Nepeta perked up. Was this what she had been waiting for? "Do you have a crush on anyone?"
She blushed. "Uh, yeah." She glanced at Equius, who nodded ever so slightly. He was there for her. She could do this.
"Who?" Karkat asked. Nepeta's blush deepened, and she looked away from Karkat. She rested her head on the table, and put her mouth to her arm. She mumbled something.
"What? I didn't understand you."
Nepeta lifted her head. "Well, it's kind of funny. Uh, I sort of like, well, you," Nepeta said.
She weakly smiled at him. Then she noticed the astonished look on his face. Oh god, what had she done. There was no way he felt the same way for her. Nepeta felt the familiar prick of tears in her eyes. Equius reached out and touched her arm. She pushed him away and ran outside.
Nepeta climbed the nearest tree. Holding her head in her hands, she sobbed. Of course there was no way that he loved her. It was a stupid and reckless move, and now he wouldn't want to be her friend. Nice one, Nepeta.
"Nepeta! Where the fuck did you go?" Karkat yelled, running out of the school. She watched as he looked around. Not finding her, he groaned. "Come on, Nepeta! I didn't say that I didn't like you back." He fell to the ground. "Real nice fucking job, shit head." On the ground, he noticed Nepeta in the branches. "What the fuck are you doing up there?'
"Oh, you know. Just hanging around," she said, trying to wipe away the tears.
He chuckled. "Why did you run out here?"
"Well, I was embarrassed, I guess." She dropped out of the tree, and Karkat stood up next to her.
"Don't be," he said, blushing. He took her hand. "I should be the embarrassed one," he muttered.
"Why?" Karkat's blush deepened. "Do you have a crush on me?"
"Maybe," Karkat muttered, scratching his head. Nepeta squealed and wrapped her arms around Karkat's neck.
"Karkitty, why didn't you tell me?" she exclaimed, bursting with joy.
"Why didn't you tell me?" he retorted.
Then Nepeta did the riskiest, most confident thing in her entire life. She pulled back, stared into his eyes, then gently pressed her lips to his. They didn't know how long they were there, holding each other in pure bliss. They only broke apart for air.
From the building, Nepeta heard the bell ring. "Karkat, we have to get to our next class."
"Who gives a fuck?" Karkat kissed her again.
