(A/N: Random OC as Gamzee's lil' sis. Will probably be shipped with a cannon character [i.e Sollux] but I'm not sure yet, also sorry for the late update)
=== Be the one at the dress shop
You are now Nepeta and you are standing on a platform for Kanaya (a famous local seamstress whom you and Karkat were friends with) as she took your measurements.
"You know Nepeta, if you continue to fidget I will not be able to finish this dress in time for Saturday." Kanaya says nonchalantly as she finished checking your measurements and began to pin the dress you were currently in into place.
"I know I'm just worried you'll pin me by accident." You say shyly as Kanaya begins to pin the other side of your dress.
"You know I would never do such a thing to you Nepeta. Although if you continue to move like this I may just do it out of spite."
You laugh at that and calm yourself down; you try not to move anymore for Kanayas sake.
"So, how do you plan on changing your appearance?"
"Well, I was hoping… since you are doing this dress for me and all… that you could do it." You mutter, blushing as you lower your head in an attempt to hide it.
"I am glad you asked. I would love to do it for you. I have always liked the idea of giving someone a complete makeover, even if it is only for one night." She says, looking up at you and smiling. You smile back, you always loved Kanayas smile; though it did freak some people into thinking she was a vampire due to her extremely sharp canines, they were even sharper that your cat-like ones.
"Thank you so much Kanaya!" You squeal, clapping your hands in joy while managing not to move too much for Kanayas sake.
"Well, I am done with the pinning. Would you like to get started on the rest of your outfit? I have anything here that any costume would require." She says, brushing the dust off of her floor length red skirt.
And so the two of you went off. Kanaya picked most things out for you however. She had picked out some contacts that made it look like you had completely white eyes, hair extensions that extended just past your bottom (those would be either done into some hair style or curled, as Kanaya had said), some white and diamond encrusted pumps to somewhat match your dress, a white lace mask that looked like the one cat-woman had in the Dark Knight Rises, and a large necklace that was silver and resembled the collar of a nice shirt but with jewels and lace-like patterns that matched the long silver earrings that went almost to your collar bone.
You had since paid Kanaya for the accessories and the dress and you would pick up the dress tomorrow around four AM so Karkat didn't catch you with it by accident. For the rest of the day you had done some hunting (managing to get a deer and a few rabbits, exchanging them for money), Talked with Equius about, well, everything, and were now working at your art desk in your room when you heard a knock on your door and shout for them to come in.
Karkat sauntered into the room and sat down on your bed before clearing his throat.
"You know, I've never actually seen your art."
"Oh, well you're sitting next to my sketch book so by all means go ahead and look. Though I can't help feeling that you came here for an actual purpose." You say, continuing your work at the light table, occasionally waving your arms around while you spoke.
"Uh, yeah I wanted to cook for you again. But could you like, fucking help me or some shit?" He grunts, playing with the comforter on the bed with his fingers.
"Yeah sure, just hand me the ruler on the bed first." You say pointing in some direction behind you, probably nowhere near the bed.
Soon you can hear Karkat come up behind you as he taps on your shoulder.
"So, what the fuck are you even drawing."
"I'm re-doing the drawing of you I made!" You giggle as you turn to face him with the original piece you had drawn of him. Karkat stands for a moment before widening his eyes and shifting them between you and the page.
"Nep, you got me spot fucking on."
"Heehee, thank you! Now, let's go teach you to cook!" you say as you take the sketchbook from Karkat and place it on the desk.
"I know how to fucking cook." He says crossly.
"Oh yeah? What happened last time you cooked Mr. grumpy pants!" You state as you bop Karkat on the nose before going to the kitchen with him on your tail.
After a long while of showing Karkat how, he's now currently cooking some crab on the stove while you observe and make sure nothing sets on fire again. You watch as Karkat gets flustered so easily by his small errors and difficulties, it was kind of cute if you had to say so yourself; so you did.
"Karkitty you're so cutesy when you're all flustered!" You laugh, wagging a finger at him before taking another sip of your hot chocolate (even though it was technically Karkats, you could always make more).
Karkat's face flushed at the notion but continued to place the crab on plates for the two of you, double checking to make sure the stove was off before placing a blue plastic plate in front of you. The two of you were silent as you ate- both enjoying your food. The dish could use a lot of improvement but it was great none the less.
You begin to think about the ball and how much fun it would be. You would pick up your dress tomorrow and be set to go. Kanaya said she would drive you instead of you taking the rides offered to guests. You guess that it just made it easier for Kanaya to help you get ready anyway; this was there was no way Karkat could see you before the ball. You were excited; you silently wondered how the Makara's were doing. You knew Gamzee's dad wouldn't have a date since his wife died after Gamzee's little sister, Zaniya, was born (she was only a year younger than you, and would probably go with a friend of hers or Gamzee's), Gamzee would probably go with Tavros –his boyfriend-, and Kurloz would take Meulin if they did end up going.
You hope Eridan didn't get invited; his family name was quite high on the social ladder after all. You know that if they did the whole family would be invited. Eridans brother Cronus would take Kankri- his best friend and Karkat's brother-, Eridan would probably scrape someone out from the unreached contacts on his cellphone and his dad would try to trick Vriska's mother into going with him, which, evidently, would work. Mituna, Kurloz' best friend, would be invited and take his girlfriend Latula. The Pixies family would no debut be invited; Meenah would take Aranea, Condesce wouldn't have to take anyone, and Feferi would take Sollux- Mituna's little brother.
This all was how you hoped it would go. Being and expert in relationships you knew that if any of your friends got together in a way you didn't like then the relationship would end eventually and it always did. Even though you liked when Equius and Vriska, and Sollux and Aradia were together and those ended you couldn't think of anyone better for Equius than Aradia. As for Sollux, well, you didn't know him too great.
Your thoughts are interrupted by Karkat taking your empty plate away from you. You smile and nod and thank him before he sits back down.
"Well, did I do a good fucking job or what? You were glaring pretty intensely at your food so I really don't know."
"It was great Karkitty! And don't worry about my glaring, I was just lost in thought I guess!" You giggle.
"Oh. Thanks then. What, uh, what were you thinking about?" He asks oddly politely for him.
"I can't tell you! That's against the rules of the thing!" You say crossly before leaning back in your chair.
"The thing?" He says it slowly before repeating it until he finally understood.
"I just realized I won't see you at all tomorrow Karkitty! I have so many errands to run, and then there's the thing which I can't say because of the rules!" You pout.
"Right." He says, getting up to walk over to the living room. "Well? It's your fucking turn to pick you know." He grunts. You nod and pick out The Notebook and before long you've fallen asleep on Karkat again.
=== Be the one hearing strange noises
It's twelve thirty at night and all you can hear is weird groaning and whimpering noises coming from the roof. You don't think anything of it until you hear a shrill scream through the night and bolt to the roof. There you see Nepeta standing, or tumbling around rather, on the roof. You don't know how she even got up here, was she sitting up here after you went to bed? No that can't be right; you take a closer look to see she's actually sleep walking.
You stand on the roof for a moment, watching Nep scream out and yell for whoever it was in her dream to 'stop it' and begging on her knees for them to stop what they were doing. You are in utter shock until you notice that she is slowly walking to the edge of the roof. You scream a loud no into the air and leap after her; catching her as she trips on an air vent protruding from the rooftop. You hold her into your chest and murmur to her that the people are gone and you're there and you aren't leaving her alone ever again. Eventually you carry Nepeta back to her room and sleep with your arms protectively around the small girl.
