Aradia X Sollux: Love, Back from the Dead

by Isura Hikari

Aradia is finally alive again, and the trolls are settling into new Alternia. But what's she gonna do when Feferi starts making a move on Sollux? And what's Sollux gonna do when he's finally face to face with his moirail? I don't own homestuck or the cover art. I don't actually know who *made* the cover art. Whoever did, you're awesome and I hope you're not mad I used it. . .

10. Chapter 10

=== Aradia: Get up.

Aradia groggily sat up. "S0llux! S0llux, where are y0u?"

"Shhhhh, II'm riight here. II'm ok, are you?" He cradled Aradia in his arms. "What hap-" she tried to ask. "0h n0." Sollux looked at the same time she did.

"Feferii..."

She lay on the ground, a neat, fuchsia splattered hole through her stomach. Eridan was sobbing hysterically. "Fef! Fef, wwhy?! I didn't mean to, I'm sorry! Wwhy did you jump?!"

Aradia and Sollux raced over to her. "S-Sollux," she said weakly. She turned her gaze to Aradia. "Ah. So it worked. Glub, hahaah."

"What d0 y0u mean it w0rked?" Feferi winced as more blood began to flow. "Why did y0u jump?!"

"Well, I felt so bad after the movie. I had to get you two together, red! I felt, haaah, really shellfish, so I impersonated Kanaya, then asked to her, Ugh!" She convulsed harshly, sending Aradia recoiling in fear. "Ow. Asked her to give the notes, aah, to Sollux. That's what I wanted to, owwwww, talk to him about."

Eridan's tears were still heavily flowing. "Y0u...y0u did that...f0r me? F0r us?"

Feferi grinned to the best of her abilities. "You had been in your hive for a month. Giiiiiirl, SOMEONE had to get you out!" She waggled her head like Meenah, making Aradia giggle, although a wave a guilt washed over her for doing so. "Thank y0u." her smile faded as she looked at the wound. "Fef...y0u're n0t expecting t0 live, are y0u?"

Feferi shook her head sadly. "No. I'm not." She pointed at Sollux, surprisingly willful for someone on their deathbed. "Sol, take good care of her. She's a great girl." She crooked her finger at Eridan, who leaned in so that she could whisper to him.

"Eridan...my dear Eridan...You poor lonely soul. After I left you...I left a hole, didn't I? A hole you desperately tried to fill. You wanted anybody, anything that could love you so you didn't have to be alone. But Dear Eridan, you don't have to kill people. You don't have to hurt people who are truly happy on their own. You need to find your own happiness, but you'll have to do it without me, now. I will always watch over you, and that last gift I will give you is my caring. Eridan, I love you. So please, don't hurt anyone else. For me."

His tears only thickened. "Feferi...please don't leave me!"

She kissed his hand, then lay still.

She had finally fixed things.

Did I do a sad thing? I DID A SAD THING

sorry. "^^

In any case, I wanted to leave a bit of an author's note. I had actually finished this story a looooong time ago. On paper. It just took me FOREVVER to type and upload it. Also, just wanted to let you guys know, I do ship EriFef. In my opinion, I believe the seadwellers should be together. I literally cried when she rejected him in the comic. And I will never ship FefSol, ever. I have one Sollux red ship, and that is AraSol.

Also, if you ship VrisJohn, I'm uploading a fic of them too. So...yeah.

Thanks for reading!
