"It'th thpring break bitcheth!" I say when I sit down at the lunch table. Nepeta, Karkat, Terezi, Feferi, and Eridan are already there. Our little gang. Eirdan still has a black eye from a few days ago. And other bruises hidden underneeth his shirt. Hehehe. Touch my girlfriend again and it will be worse. Much worse. Anyway. Spring break is next week. And today is Friday so it is pretty much starting tomorrow. "Big whoop." Karkat says. Grumpy buzz kill. "Don't be such a put down." Terezi snaps at him. "I just don't see the big deal about one week of freedom." He replies.
"Are you crazy!? Spring break is like that first week of summer where you go out with your friends on a day trip or something!" Nepeta jumps in. "Exactly! That'th what we should do!" I reply.
"What?" Feferi asks. "All of uth, we're gonna go on a trip." I explain. I am actually excited.
Kind of shocking I'm sure. "Yeah!" all of the girls shout and put their hands in the air.
They really are best friends. "Fine. But where the fuck are we even gonna go?" Karkat asks.
"Umm. Everybody think about where you want to go, once you get home we can talk on pethterchum to decide." I answer.
Naturally that's what we do. But as soon as I get home I get greeted by a phyco Mituna.
"Why are you touching me? Why are you still touching me?" He is asking Cronus, one of his friends from collage, not that he is attending yet even. I don't see how they are friends.
Cronus is like Eridan but he thinks the 80s are cool and insits on acting like he is living in them.
And when he starts talking he ignores what your saying unless your yelling.
That's why I don't like him hanging out with Mituna. He doesn't like to inturrupt people or yell.
But of coarse the yelling happens anyway if you don't stop touching him. Or if he gets really frustraited. But right now Cronus is still has a hand on his shoulder while blabbering away.
I walk farther into the house and wait for Mituna to snap or for Cronus to figure out that he is shivering and mumbling. They have known each other for years so I don't know why Cronus is still so stupid.
But he is. I stand behind the couch where they are sitting and wait to see what happens.
Mituna starts shaking more. He starts twitching as well. This is the part where Cronus normally notices and backs off. But aparently not today. "W-why are you still..? W-why-askjhsdfhsdkf huiehdg!" Mituna starts freaking out. "Woah, chill out man!" Cronus replies to the spaz attack.
I just look at him. "Really Cronuth? You theriouthly didn't thee thith coming?" I ask and bend over the back of the couch. The beauty of Mituna is the people he is closet to can touch him without him freaking out. Me and Latula are those people. It takes a long time and a really good relationship for that to work of coarse. I hug Mituna from behind and shoosh him. He starts to mellow out and I just sigh. My phone starts making that sound that only pesterchum makes.
"You ok?" I ask. "Mhm." He answers. I let him go and glare at Cronus.
"Thtop fucking touching him." I say right before walking to my room.
I sit down at my computer and open up pesterchum.

And then everyone pretty much get's offline one by one.
This should be cool-wait. I'm gonna be alone in a car with not just my girlfriend and by angry best friend. Noooo It will be us, in a car, for hours, with Eridan and the other crazy girls.
What the fuck did I just get us into?
== Be Karkat
I close my laptop and think for a second. I can't fucking believe I just agreed to be in the same car with these annoying fucks for hours on end. God this is gonna suck.
I walk out of my room and into Kankri's.
"Hey Kankri, aparently I'm going on a road trip to Feferi's beach house on Monday." I say.
"You're what?! I refuse to let a bunch of teenagers such as yourselfs go driving to who knows where without any supervision!" Here we go. "Kankri, it's fine. We can take care of ourselfs, and we have phones. Most of us can drive and we will be taking Terezi's car. What could go wrong?" I reply.
I see him take a breath in before speaking. Shit shit! "Kankri wai-" And there he goes. Well, I know this doesn't have some kind of deep meaning to it. I sit down and pull my phone out my pocket while I wait for him to finish. Which of coarse takes fucking forever. But when he does I finally stand up and leave. "Karkat were you listening?" He asks as I walk out the door. "Nope." I answer and close the door behind me. This is going to be ok I guess. At least I don't have to worry about him being at school thanks to the break. I completely forgot when I was talking to Nepeta about it. I guess she did to.
Once down the stairs I go to the kitchen and go straight to the fridge. I. Need. Icecream.
Congrats to me for making up the random sentence of the day for your pathetic life.
I go up to my room with a large bowl of frozen goodness and flop down on my bed.
I grab my laptop and start watching a rom com. Wait.
I'm sitting alone in my room, watching a rom com, and eating a ton of icecream. Fuck I'm a loser.
But a loser with great taste in entertainment, bitch.
((Blarg! Sorry about this being late but I read over it again before uploading and changed my mind on a lot of it so bleeeeeh. There should still be another chapter on Sunday. Let's hope I don't put off re-reading that one until the last second...who are we kidding of course I'm gonna put it off. But I wont be late!))
