This chapter was a little hard to get right but I hope you like it.

Karkat woke up the next morning to the sun streaming through the trees outside; he looked down and realized he didn't even change out of his suit. He stood up and grabbed his phone to check the time, "Eleven thirty, well Sollux is gonna be pissed." Karkat opened his luggage and laid out his clothes; he had five pairs of jeans, two pairs of khakis, a couple of T-shirts and long sleeved shirts, some dress shirts, his sweaters, his suit, and a teal woman's sweater. Karkat put on a gray T-shirt and some dark jeans on. He grabbed a mahogany sweater and a candy red scarf with matching gloves before he looked at the teal sweater on his bed, he grabbed it and held it close to him before laying it back down and leaving his room.

As he made his way down stairs he heard Sollux's voice talking on the phone, "Yeah. That thoundth good. Ok well I'll have him back here in time; between you and me I think thith will be hith firtht good home cooked meal in a long time. I gotta go I think I hear him. Ok bye"

Karkat walked into the main room and asked, "Who were you talking to?"

"No one, jutht your roommate." Sollux said as he stood up from the arm chair by the fireplace.

Karkat looked around and saw that the Makara cabin had been renovated and this room had more furniture. They had a long couch about three feet from a wall that was almost entirely window, a loveseat that was across from the fire place and facing away from the doorway Karkat was standing in. there was a coffee table in the middle of the room with a black and purple patterned rug over the wood flooring. "What was that about a 'home cooked meal'?" Karkat asked.

"Well you don't eat well and you never leave that apartment." Sollux said as his bipolar tendencies started to come out.

Karkat rolled his eyes, "Sollux please tell me this isn't some girl that you think can help me. I have someone."

Sollux started to get mad, "No you don't KK, Terethi ith gone. It'th been five yearth, I underthtand that you're hurting but you can't mourn thith your whole life."

"Sollux don't you fucking do this, not now."Karkat said as his voice started to rise.

"No KK, I have been trying to help you but for God'th thake you've been acting like you don't detherve anyone, like it'th your fault or thomething." Sollux yelled.

Karkat screamed unclenching his fists, "That's because it was." A tear started to fall down his face as he looked his friend in the eyes, "I was supposed to go but she said that it wouldn't be smart since I hate driving in the snow."

Sollux calmed down and walked over to Karkat giving him a hug, "KK it wathn't your fault. The knew that the roads were bad and the thtill went out in it."

Karkat began to cry while saying, "If I had gone then she'd still be here, Kurloz wouldn't have gotten his vocal cords crushed like they are, and Mituna wouldn't have suffered the way he did."

"Lithten to yourthelf, by that logic we're all to blame. You and TZ were thmart not to go to that party, me and Gamthee got thit fathed and you got called to pick the four of uth. If the hadn't come then Gam and me would be in the thame state as Kurloz or Mituna, or we'd be dead. Bethideth it wath thome douthebag who thought I'd be thmart to drink behind the wheel, it would've ended the thame even if you had come." Sollux said as he comforted his friend. "Are you thill talking to that therapist that Kanaya is dating?"

Karkat wiped his eyes on his sleeve and nodded, "Yeah she keeps saying that I need to let go. I took my engagement ring off for the first time a month ago. Rose said that I need to get rid of everything that was hers and it's all mostly gone but," Karkat looked towards his room, "I kept her sweater that she loved. She gave it to me before she left, still wearing mine, to pick y'all up."

"Karkat I'm thorry you've been like thith but you haven't let yourthelf live since the wreck. Do you think the'd want you to do thith, I think the'd be dithappointed that you've paththed up tho many chantheth to move on." Sollux said as he comforted his friend. "Give thith girl a chanthe and if not try that girl you thared a cab with."

Karkat pulled out the ring and felt the cool silver in his finger tips, "Ok, I'll give her a chance but," his eyes glossed over in remembrance, "I don't know if my conscience will truly let it happen."

Sollux out stretched his hand and helped his friend up. "Come on, John and Vrithka want to thee you. They thaid they'd kill me if they were'nt the firtht oneth you vithited."

Karkat smiled and walked out the door to and said, "Fine, I've missed that fuckass for a while, and Kurloz is in trouble for trying to set me up with someone behind my back."

Sollux pulled out his phone and keys commenting, "I'll warn him now."

They locked the door leaving the key under the rock and walked to Sollux's Lexus. When they opened the car door he said, "Thinthe I'm clearing the air, Jade ith John'th half thithter." He laughed as Karkat punch him in the arm while stringing curse after curse about him being a "no good asshole" while they pulled out of the now empty driveway.

I hope you guys liked it. I know it was fun to write. The next chapter shouldn't take too long though.
