Concussed Part 3
Matesprites
Tavros combed his fingers through Gamzee's wavy black hair gently, careful not to pull on any tangles he found. The troll on his lap had had a very long day, and Tavros was glad his moirail trusted him enough to sleep on his lap, even if it might just be an outcome of the concussion.
Tavros frowned, his hand slowing it's constant motion in Gamzee's hair. Would their relationship be affected by the concussion? Tavros didn't think so, but it never hurt to be cautious, he supposed. Gamzee moved in his lap, and Tavros jumped slightly, before laughing at himself and continuing to pet the taller trolls head. Smiling down at Gamzee, he let his eyes close.
He'd had one hell of a day himself, after all.
Finding out your best friend was hurt, and then seeing him for yourself and realizing just how dire the situation was… Tavros was honestly surprised at how well he'd handled the situation. He hadn't stuttered once the entire day, and he hadn't left his friends side once he fell asleep.
Hearing quiet footsteps, Tavros opened his eyes tiredly, the events of the day suddenly showing their impact, and looked up. He vaguely realized his hand had stopped playing with Gamzee's hair, and started to once more. Karkat looked down at him, strangely quiet. After a few minutes, Tavros decided the short troll wasn't going to speak, and lowered his head again, blinking slowly.
"…You aright nook whiff?" He looked up at the unexpected question. Karkat watched him carefully, himself beginning to understand why his friend was suddenly so tired.
Tavros nodded, "Yeah, I'm alright." He looked back at Gamzee, "Just tired is all…"
Karkat snorted quietly, before suddenly sitting next to the pair, "Know what you mean. Fucker gave all of us a scare." He glanced at Tavros, evaluating, "You sure you're alright? You can sleep if you want. I can look after this fuckass."
Tavros looked at him, a part of him wanting to sleep, and the other part strangely irritated that the other troll wanted to watch over his moirail. It was his job to watch over Gamzee. Gamzee was his after all-
Tavros blinked.
He accepted the offer quietly, and moved so he could lay down, pushing his previous thoughts to the back of his mind. Gamzee moved with him and turned onto his side, curling up with his head on Tavros' chest. Tavros grinned despite himself. Karkat watched the two quietly, before grinning smugly. In a sudden bout of curiosity, Karkat asked a question.
"You flushed?"
Instead of Tavros sputtering and denying even the thought, as he had in the past, Tavros just blinked at the question, before getting a puzzled look on his face. Not answering Karkat, he started petting Gamzee's hair again, and stared up at the metal ceiling, suddenly confused.
Karkat grinned before letting his face resemble his usual mood. Pissy.
'Fucker's growin' up.'
Unaware of it happening at the time, sometime while he was thinking, Tavros fell asleep. Karkat returned to his computer, and he and Sollux glanced at the sleeping pair ever so often. Sollux snickered and glanced at Karkat more than once, and Karkat never failed to return the look with a confused one of his own.
"What the fuck is so funny?" He asked quietly, not wanting to wake up the two sleeping trolls. Sollux simply snickered again and swiveled around in his chair to continue coding on his computer.
Karkat blinked, before angrily turning back to his computer, giving the two one last glance. Feferi, having entered the room minutes prior to this exchange, tried and failed to hide her giggles behind her hand. Eventually giving in to Karkat's confused looks, she walked over happily and whispered into his ear.
The result being Karkat emitting a sound between a scream of terror and laughter. Slamming a hand over his mouth, Karkat glared at Sollux and ran to a computer farther away.
Sollux just laughed again, before turning and grinning like an idiot at the sea dweller who was now rolling on the floor in a fit of giggles.
"What the fucks got you giggling so hard sis?"
Feferi glanced up from her spot on the floor and grinned at the Capricorn who had just woken up. Gamzee smiled at her, before he realized he couldn't see his moirail.
"The fuck'd Tav go?"
Feferi giggled to much to answer, and Sollux snickered before answering for her playfully, "Look up doothbag."
Gamzee did, and grinned, "Well I'll be damned." Suddenly realizing he had been sleeping on the little dude, Gamzee decided some bitching cuddling was in order, and proceeded to do just that. When his more frantic movements didn't wake Tavros up, he started to frown.
"How come he's so tired?"
Sollux raised a brow at him, "How come you're tho active? Feeling better?"
"Fuck yeah."
Grinning, Nepeta jumped from her chair and ran over to him, "That's wonderful! I was so worried when you fell!" Wincing from the volume of her voice, Gamzee hid it by grinning at her.
"Sorry 'bout that. What'd I trip on anyways?"
Nepeta spoke quieter, "Tavros' wheelchair."
Gamzee didn't react in words. Actually he didn't really react at all. He just stared at her, as if not understanding what she'd said. After a few minutes, Nepeta started to get worried, "Gamzee?"
Blinking, Gamzee smiled at her, "It's cool Cat-sis. Nothing to worry about."
Not really convinced, but lacking anything to say, Nepeta nodded and him, flashed a smile, and ran over to Equius' side. Gamzee gave Tavros a quick once over again, before looking up at Karkat, who was still on the other side of the room. He blinked.
"The fuck you so far away for?"
This only caused Sollux and Feferi to start laughing again, much to Karkat's irritation and Gamzee's confusion. Pulling herself together, Feferi walked over to Gamzee, before whispering into his ear.
Blocking out the sudden objections from Karkat, Gamzee listened to what she had to say, before letting a smile break out over his face. He smiled a shit eating grin at Karkat, causing the troll to turn a color dangerously close to red, and run out of the room, yelling profanities.
Gamzee snickered before smirking at Sollux, "Better go get him before he hurts himself, lover boy."
Blushing yellow, but offering a shaky smile non the less, Sollux nodded and ran out of the room. Feferi laughed again, and the closeness of her voice and Gamzee made the troll whimper, his head starting to hurt at the loud noises. So much for feeling better. He felt a movement under him and all of the sudden he was under a growling Troll.
Fury was something Gamzee's never seen for real on any of his friends faces, and it surprised him when he saw it on Tavros'. The Brown blooded troll was growling at Feferi, effectively ceasing her giggles. At his computer, Eridan stood and growled back at Tavros, walking to Feferi's side.
When Tavros didn't stop for a minute, Gamzee lightly ran a hand over his stomach, "Tav? You alright?"
As if someone had flipped a switch, Tavros deflated, falling next to Gamzee on the pile of scalemates, and proceeded to glare at the ceiling. Gamzee gawked at him, but a grin tugged at the corners of his mouth, "Motherfuck Tav. Didn't know you could growl like that."
Tavros scrunched his nose, before looking at Gamzee, "Are you alright? You whimpered."
Gamzee paused at the unexpected question, then when the reasoning behind Tav's actions was revealed, the pieces clicked into place and Gamzee started laughing.
Suddenly blushing, Tavros started to sit up, only to have Gamzee push him back down, hugging the shit out of him. Gamzee squeezed him, careful not to hurt the smaller troll, and grinned wider when Tavros hugged him back, although confused.
"Um… Gamzee? What's so funny?"
Gamzee just continued laughing, and much to Tavros' embarrassment, started peppering his cheeks with kisses. His face growing brown at the sudden affection, Tavros surprised himself when he started smiling and laughing with Gamzee. Gamzee seemed equally surprised, but wasn't every going to question it.
Smiling at the pair, Feferi walked off with an overly protective Eridan, who held her hand a bit longer than he had to. She didn't object either.
At a sudden shift under them, Tavros yelped and clung to Gamzee's shirt as the pile they'd been laying on collapsed due to their movements. With Tavros under him, Gamzee landed on his elbows, trying not to squish the troll. He winced when his skin his the ground, and Tavros missed it, being snuggled into Gamzee's shirt. After a second, when Gamzee didn't get off, Tavros looked up and saw Gamzee's face scrunched up. Suddenly worried, Tavros put his hands on the other's cheeks, "Gamzee? Are you alright?"
Chuckling, Gamzee rolled off Tavros gently, "Yeah. Hurt my arms though… n' now my head all up and hurts again." He didn't know how it was possible to make your head hurt just by moving, but Gamzee'd done it, and he wasn't pleased about it.
His eyes squeezed shut, Gamzee felt a weight on his chest, and something soft on his nose, but when he opened his eyes the feeling had gone. He looked at Tav's blushing face, and something clicked.
Tav had kissed him.
Yeah, it'd been on the nose, but he'd kissed him. Completely forgetting about his headache, Gamzee grinned up at his moirail.
But moirails didn't kiss each other.
Pulling Tavros down so he was snuggled up against his chest again, Gamzee felt a laugh bubbling up into his throat. He'd kissed Tav plenty of times before, but the fact that he'd kissed back…
Only one way to be sure.
Gamzee smiled up at Tavros, "Love you motherfucker."
He'd never seen Tavros smile so wide before.
Tavros playfully bumped Gamzee's horns with his knuckles, "You'd better. I love you too."
Gamzee laughed again, and Tavros kissed him again, and there's no way this wasn't the happiest day of his life, concussion or not.
And in a room not to far away, Karkat and Sollux were happy too.
Hey guys! I hope you enjoyed this Chapter more than the sad stuck one. It's almost 2 pages longer than that one too and… well, I just hope you liked it!
Any suggestions for something new?
