Okay, so, you guys are so amzing! I have to say, you guys got the best ideas! . And I'm sorry to some of you guys who suggested some stuff today! I wrote it last night 6/19/20! Honestly, since you guys requested so much for Karkat to come back into the story I was so confused! I asked my sister (Fluffy4Gizmo, you guys should thank her a lot) how to bring him back. And this is what she said:
(enjoy)
Karkat
I could see the feild infront of me. It seemed to be glowing in a surreal way. The sky was a beckoning shade of blue and there were white puffy clouds floating across. I could hear the wind, and only that, there was nothing else there. My legs gave in and I gently fall onto him knees, plopping my butt on my heels and gazing ahead. I felt as if my heart had been repaired, my shoulders had their weights removed and my scars had disapeared. I roll up my sleeve to check. They were still there, faded but no longer scabbed. I felt my lips curling into a smile and I suddenly understood where I was. All I could do was lay there and run my hands through the dirt. It was extremely soft and entertaining. I stood up a couple of times to walk through the feild of what I believed was wheat, but every now and then it seemed to be flowers. Then I found a puddle. A puddle with a hole at the bottom. The water was almost crystal clear and the hole held a blinding white light. I understood what it was. That tunnel they talk about. Don't go towards the light! That's exactly what I began doing. Does it count as suicide if you're already dead? That was just one of the small questions in the back of my mind. I sat in the small puddle and I let my feet dangle in the hole, contemplating if I should go or not.
"Screw this."
I whisper to myself and push off into the hole. To my dismay, I'm roughly jerked back. At first I'm oblivious of what was going on. My body was in a large amount of pain, and it kept jerking up, off of something...like a bed. I could feel sheets but I knew that if I was laying on anything it'd be dirt, or flowers/wheat. I reached out to grab at anything as the hole from the puddle began to suck everything away.
I opened my eyes for a second then shut them from the blinding lights over head. There was screaming and yelling and something cold against my bare chest. Another shock wave through my body and my eyes flash open again. I gasp loudly but quickly I fall unconcious. The last thing I hear is a nurse. We're losing him.
"Karkat...Karkat...please open your eyes son..."
"Come on KK, pleath..."
"Bubba, bubba don't die."
"Come on honey, open your eyes. We're here with you. We're all here."
"Unghhh..."
My eyes slowly flutter open and the first thing I see is his black spikey hair and his nerdy glasses. I see a couple of tears too, especially as he leans in and pulls himself against my chest.
"KK, are you okay? We, we thought we lotht you."
Sollux whines sitting back and holding my cheeks in his palms. I blink slowly a couple of times, trying to get over the grogginess. My hand is taken into some one elses to my right and I slowly look over.
"Karkat...I can't believe this...you're alive..."
I turn away and shut my eyes, feeling far two exhausted to argue with him, let alone pull my hand away. All I can do is lay on the bed and stare into Solluxs watery eyes with half lidded ones. Every slight movement he made, every sound he released, my heart jumped against my rib cage as if it wanted to reach him.
Sollux
It's 3:14 a.m. now, Sare and Hellena went home with Nepeta so she could rest for school tomorrow, I volunteered to stay with KK.
"I heard that hothpital food wath dithguthting."
I whisper from beside Karkat. The doctor had told us, as in his family and me, that there must be no yelling and no roughness. He was in a very delicate manner and his lungs could collapse at any moment. He shakes his head slowly and continues to eat away at the orange jello. I shift into a better, more comfortable position on the bed and loop my arms around him.
"KK, I wath theriouthly thcared. I thought I might never get to tell you...how I feel..."
I feel my stomach tighten as he slowly looks up at me. His eyes furrowed and he quickly swallowed the jello in his mouth.
"Don't...tell me...you're gay..."
He stutters. I throw my hands behind my head and lean back in the bed. Even beneath my closed eyes I could feel him glaring at me. I know how much he hates being targetted by homosexuals but I never thought that he'd be hateful towards me.
"Come on KK, it'th not that bad."
I begin sitting back up. Karkat rolls his eyes and sets the tray to one side.
"It'th not like I ever hurt you. If anything I hurt mythelf tho that we could thtill be betht friendth."
I say pulling his arm as he tries to tug the covers off. I push him gently back against the bed and wrap my arms around him, resting my head against his chest so I could hear his heart pound.
"I theriouthly love you KK. If I had meant to hurt you, I would've long ago. I'm thorry KK, for fooling you all thethe yearth but I didn't want to loothe you too."
I can feel Karkat shift, and I imagine he's now looking at me, I don't know his expression though. Then, his hand is in my hair and gently tugging my head up to where we see into each others eyes.
"When...I woke...up...you were the...first...person I saw...and...I couldn't...help but stare...at you..."
He shuts his eyes then and pulls my face towards his. All I can do is stare in shock as he closes his eyes, and then our lips touch, and I close mine. I push against his lips roughly until I hear him whimper in pain. I pull back slightly yet I never let my lips leave his. I can feel his fingers attempting to grip my shirt tightly, but he was still too weak. I reach back and take his hand into my own slowly lacing our fingers together.
"KK..."
I begin but I decide nothing else is needed to be said as he weakly tugs me against him. I hug him back and kiss his cheek as he cries into my shoulder.
Tavros
I sit against my wall staring at my cell phone screne in silence. When it had come time, I simply stared at the trash can, then walked off, I never through it away. I couldn't bring myself to throw away my phone. I push play on one of the videos Gamzee and I had made when my dad was away for a week. He spent the whole week with me, we baked, played board and video games, watched movies and role played...both ways.
"Hahaha...pass me the sugar already Gamzee..."
The phone had been set on a shelf in the cabinet above us at an angle so I could see him in the back messing with a couple of packages.
"We're gonna put a hell of sugar in it right Tavbabe?"
"No Gamzee, we don't want to ruin the taste."
"Aw but babe...there ain't no taste better than~"
I didn't need to hear what he said to know it. He had leaned over my shoulder and whispered the details that had hardenned me faster than I could hide it.
"Gamzee no, we're baking a cake, you can wait until later."
"Naaah babe, this mutherfucker can't wait for shit."
He inhaled against my hair, though through the bad quality of the phone you can't see that, and started nibbling on my neck.
"Gamzee..."
"You're my miracle Tav."
"I know-"
"Tav...I really mean this shit. You're my mutherfucking, life saving miracle...and though some people say that time is happy when people fly, I don't...no...wait...time flies when you're happy! I don't want this time to end."
I wanted to turn it off, at least I kept telling myself that. Inside though, I was insane for that type of touch again. For those words to be whispered in my ear. For Gamzee to tell me just how important I was.
"You're my sunshine Gamzee...cuz you always make my days brighter."
I push pause and look up. The irony. My sunshine is gone and so is the light of my happiness. My bedroom light was off as well, just to lighten the mood. I cringe at the horrible pun and push play.
"How bout, we make this cake into an anniversary cake?"
"But Gamzee...we're...no where near our anniversary?"
"I know babe...but every day should be our anniversary, cuz my love for you just keeps growing. I really love you, Tavbabe."
"I love you too."
"I love you too..."
I sob into my hand, repeating the four words over and over, as if they could fix everything.
"Tavros?"
I jump in shock then quickly look up at my door where Rufio stood. His gaze was soft and his arms were crossed tightly across his chest. I wipe away the tears in my eyes and smile up at him.
"Y-yeah dad?"
"Come on, we're going to a have a little talk."
I nod and follow him out of my room.
