A/N: Sorry this has taken so long to update! I don't really have an excuse so you guys can choose to be upset with me if you'd like :'(

But I decided I might want to make pairings crossing the two fandoms! just to spice things up a bit~!

Someone asked about if I knew about Broadway Karkat and if I planned to have Karkat join Glee club. I am ruminating on that idea! I' trying not to make all the kids Glee kids, but I may add in a few more members just because, but I do plan on introducing the fact that Karkat can sing, as well as some others!

Disclaimer: These two obviously don't belong to me.

"Wow KK. You really thuck at thith."

Karkat groaned and laid his face on the open English textbook in front of him. "This is such a stupidly idiotic language," he groaned, causing Sollux to snort.

"I can't believe you don't get it," the Asian said, leaning back in his chair. His albino companion simply flipped him the bird, not removing his head from the book.

"Fuck you. You're a goddamn super genius! You get everything!"

Sollux couldn't doubt that. Although it was still the first semester, the dark haired boy was able to skip a lot of class since he seemed to understand these foreign concepts better than anyone else in his classes. He mainly just hoisted his laptop down to the rarely used boys bathroom and completed his minimal amount of work before hacking into the school's system and causing mayhem pretty much every day.

"Hello boys~!"

The two were interrupted by Jade and her new friend Rachel and both boys groaned.

They hated days where glee club was involved. It took hours to make Jade shut up. Let alone her brunette friend. And they really didn't want to be bombarded with music and endless chatter.

"Oh god, please spare me and brutally rip my ears from my head," Karkat growled. Sensing that there was an oncoming shit storm, Sollux stood and began gathering some clothes. The albino's gaze went to him. "Where the hell are you going?"

"I'm gonna thower. There'th a party remember?" he said, gathering a few more clothes before slipping into their bathroom. Karkat was now left alone with Jade and Rachel.

Awesome.

"Yeah! You're coming, right Karkat?" Jade chirped, sitting next to him on his bed. Rachel joined her, but trying to stay as far away from the hot-headed boy as possible. Karkat sat up and shrugged.

"Better than fucking English homework," he said, stepping away from the bed. Rachel wrinkled her nose, never being a fan of his foul mouth.

"You guys should really look into moving to an actual house," the brunette advised, nudging a misplaced bottle of Faygo with her foot. She wasn't really a fan of Sollux, Gamzee and Karkat's living style either.

"You should really try shoving your head up your ass."

"Karkat!" Jade scolded. The albino shrugged.

He was trying to work on his manners, honestly. He knew he couldn't parade around being socially unacceptable, but he was obviously failing in the kindness category. Rachel at least was trying to adjust to Karkat's feisty personality, knowing that people acted like that from wherever he was from, but others weren't so tolerant of his attitude.

Karkat stood and decided he was going to go visit John. With Sollux in the shower, he was getting smothered in the lack of testosterone.

WE'RE GOING TO BREADSTIX AND YOU'RE PAYING.

Karkat's phone buzzed in reply only seconds after sending the message to his dorky friend.

i have to be wooed properly if you wanna court me, mr. vantas ;)

Karkat could feel his cheeks heat up and his headache triple. That damned winky face could just wipe itself off the face of the technological interface. But it was super cute in an obnoxious-John-Egbert kind of way.

YOU AND THAT FUCKING EMOTICON CAN GO TO HELL.

love you too. can rory come?

Karkat paused in the middle of the hotel's hallway.

Who was Rory? And why did John want him to invade on their personal bro time? Karkat had to filter his speech to make sure he didn't slip up about Alternia and their game while he was at school already, and he didn't want to have to keep up with the filter. However, Karkat had a weakness for letting John do what he wanted.

WHATEVER. IT'S YOUR WALLET.

Karkat left the hotel that he and his friends stayed t and walked to a bus stop. Since he couldn't drive with not actually being an American citizen and all, he just rode the bus when John, Dave, Rose, or Jade weren't around. Jade didn't even try to drive much even though she had the most environmentally safe car that money could buy, and hell if he was going to hitch a ride with blonde Thing 1 and Thing 2. So bus it was.

When the bus came, Karkat boarded it, skillfully ignoring the stares from the people on the bus. He put his money and pulled his hood over his head. He realized the man beside him was staring at him with a smile when he was trying to pull out his iPod.

"What?" Karkat asked, narrowing his ruby eyes in a glare. Inspecting him, Karkat denounced that this man was actually reasonably attractive. And young. He had a nose piercing and tattoos scattered his chest from what his V-neck revealed. Dark dreadlocks wound down his back and fell over his shoulders. His deep green eyes – no, not exactly green, there was some hints of honey in there too – were slanted slightly, but nowhere near Nepeta's and Sollux's

"Are you albino?" he asked, his warm grin spread across his face.

"No shit," Karkat spat. He then let out a groan. "Why do I attract all the stoners?" The other's smile turned down.

"I'm not a stoner," he said, making the albino's eyebrows shoot up.

"So you choose to dress like that?" Karkat asked, his tone obviously meant to be taken as superior. The other boy nodded in reply.

"God gave me the choice to express how I am, and I choose to honor him-"

Karkat tuned him out as he started talking about how each one of his dreads was named after some book, but he wasn't interested. The only people who talked to him about God always seemed to call him an abomination. He wasn't really up to hearing it again on his way to his date.

"My name's Joseph Hart," he said, clapping Karkat on the shoulder. It was only the physical contact that made him pay attention to the tattooed boy.

Damn this kid was persistent.

"I'm not interested," Karkat grumble, counting the stops until he had to get off.

Joseph took this as his cue to stop pestering him. The albino was grateful for that, and when his stop came, he exited swiftly, but through the bus murmur, he could hear a voice addressing him.

"God bless."

Karkat shrugged and stepped onto the sidewalk.

Artie Abrams could genuinely say he felt understood.

No one around him knew what it was like with a disability. Sure, they could understand that it was difficult, but no one knew how difficult. The closest had been Tina nearly two years ago, but she revealed that her stutter was fake. It was crushing and although he didn't show it on the outside, he knew he would always be isolated from everyone else and it hurt. But now, he was no longer alone.

"And he honestly couldn't see why it was a problem."

Tavros laughed easily as Artie finished his story. They had decided to eat their lunch away from the chaos of the cafeteria and go to the choir room instead.

"W-wow! Your, uh, glee club sounds really awesome!" Tavros chirped.

"Yeah, it's an outcast-help-outcast kind of place."

Tavros looked around the room again. He couldn't sing so the whole glee club thing was out. He was happy with his friends though. They were accepting of him and helped him when he was having troubles with something. Of course, it helped that he had Artie now and he could express his distress to him, but there were never going to be enough people that were willing to set aside differences and accept someone who was outcasted from society. He knew Rachel through Jade, and she seemed pretty cool, loud, but cool. Kanaya constantly rambled about her new companions Kurt and Blaine, and Rose seemed to be getting along swimmingly with another Asian named Tina. Nepeta also seemed to be getting along with Tina. Her and her boyfriend Mike, that is. Gamzee was hanging out with a blonde cheerleader named Brittany often, and Tavros could tell that their active and wild imaginations complemented each other well. Vriska was constantly attempting to one-up Brittany's girlfriend named Santana, and their were always out-bitching each other. Terezi had started disappearing and it was soon discovered she was hanging out with former head cheerleader Quinn Fabray, and everyone could see why Terezi took an interest in her. Dave seemed to be easing up to some guy named Noah Puckerman, and they would usually swap stories of girls they've bedded, which was odd since that meant Dave would have had most of his experience before he entered the game. Feferi was obviously flushed for an individual named Sam Evans, and everyone could tell; everyone except Eridan, who had yet to make any new friends. Equius seemed content alone with Aradia as always, and they kept each other company, not really opening up to many others. John also hadn't really warmed up to anyone new to Tavros's knowledge, but everyone could see he was content with Karkat.

"So, uh, what made you join the New Directions?" Tavros asked, done with mulling over his thoughts.

"I've always been into music. At first, it was only me, Kurt, Tina, Rachel and Mercedes and we really sucked," he started, rolling around in a small circle in the center of the room. Tavros tilted his head to the side a little and narrowed his chocolate eyes in confusion.

He never thought the New Directions had a point where they weren't good.

"But we got members and then we really hit the ground running!" he said, turning back around to face Tavros.

Tavros ran a hand through his shaggy mohawk and laughed lightly.

Oh yeah, he was finally understood. And he loved it.

Karkat was not liking this Rory kid.

He spoke funny and said weird things that he and John didn't understand, and after snapping at him twice with John scolding him to be nice, his patience was hanging by a thread.

He wanted to have alone time with John, but no, the blue-eyed beauty had to invite his foreign friend to eat dinner with them, and Karkat was not taking to him. He didn't take to people in general. So halfway through the dinner, the albino decided to just shut up and eat his food in a seething silence.

And John was starting to catch on to his distress.

"Hey, Karkat. Are you alright? You haven't said anything negative about my choice in movies yet."

Oh yeah, they were talking about movies, weren't they? Karkat couldn't remember. He tuned them out, not wanting to listen to their conversation. It was already hard enough that he knew John was super sociable and could make friends in the blink of an eye, but he really didn't have to rub it in Karkat's face that there was someone out there who could potentially fill the spot of "best friend" that he and Dave already fought to occupy.

He shrugged. "Does it matter?" he asked snarkily. Rory pursed his lips. Even he could tell something was wrong, and he and Karkat had gotten off to a bad start.

"Well I mean, you're kinda my best bro and I don't want you to feel upset."

Upset?

Oh, Karkat was more than upset.

"Well, then maybe you'd like to take a look around and think about what fucked up decision you've made this time," he hissed before sliding out of his side of the booth. He was done with this dumb dinner.

He didn't want John to replace him, as much as he hated to admit it, and now that John was getting new friends, isn't that what was going to happen? John would surely realize how terrible of a friend he was and would drop him like a writhing wriggler in favor for some better company. Rory Flatulence or whatever his name was could go choke on his own bone bulge for all Karkat cared, but he wasn't going to sit around and watch his best friend be taken from him.

He walked a few stops down and waited for the next bus to come. He should have hijacked John's car, but no matter how angry he was with him, he didn't want to hear him whine and cry. It also wouldn't help his case.

So Karkat Vantas rode the bus back to the hotel he called his home without John Egbert, and tried to convince himself it didn't bother him.

Poor Karkat :( Please review and tell me what you guys think of this chapter! Also! I plan on keeping Joe in there! He's wormed his way into my heart haha!
