John had barely been able to sleep last night. He lay in bed awake and looked up at his ceiling, as if there was some insanely interesting object there. He couldn't wait for Vriska to arrive, but he was unsure of how to act. Did he hug her when he saw her, or shake her hand. Should he treat her like his love, or as a really good friend? It was all so confusing and he turned over in his bed and looked at the wall, once covered in posters that he had drawn on while sleeping. He had to get rid of them, lest have all those harlequins and jesters and what-not on his wall for the rest of his teenage life. He had replaced them with new posters of all his favourite movies, like con Air, and Little Monsters.
Finally getting to sleep, John dreamt of different ways that tomorrow could go, from bad to good. He had stopped dreaming of Prospit two years ago, for some reason.
The next morning John woke up and yawned, hopping out of his bed. Today was the day he got to meet Vriska. First things first though, go have breakfast, and have a shower, while avoiding Dad. That should be able to be accomplished easily. John quickly exited his room and made it to the bathroom without being caught, and showered and washed his hair, making himself all handsome for Vriska, wanting to make a good impression on her. He exited the bathroom, and prepared for the trip downstairs.
Meanwhile…
Vriska Serket had just crawled out of her pod, and was trying to brush off some of the slime that had gotten on her. She didn't want to be all slimy for John. She had also been thinking about today as she went to sleep, unsure whether to makeout with John as soon as she saw him, or hug him, or just stand around awkwardly. Never mind she would work it out when she saw him. In the next 10 minutes, she was all cleaned up, and wearing her best outfit, and made her way over to Equius' hive which was where she had to meet to arrive in the human world. She was as nervous as ever, and kept berating herself for feeling nervous, it was only John after all. Vriska still couldn't get rid of the butterflies in her stomach though.
An hour later, John had had breakfast, and managed to get out of a confrontation with his father, who seemed to be missing. Probably just in his room though. John was sitting at the window, watching it with great interest as to spot Vriska as soon as she arrived. Suddenly, before his eyes a person, a female to be exact, with horns popped up in front of his house. John immediately knew who it was and jumped up, and ran to the door, flinging it open and stepping outside. "Vriska?" he said, hesitantly, just to be sure.
Vriska felt herself be transported, and when she landed she felt a bit dazed. Though, her hearing still worked and she heard a bang from behind her, and she turned towards it. There he was, John Egbert, standing there, and he said her name. "So you do remem8er me," she said and smiled, thinking of their last conversation, that this John had no knowledge of. John walked over to her and stood in front of her, and smiled. "of course i remember you vriska, why wouldn't I," he said happily, and held out his hand to her, as a shake. Vriska just looked at it, then up at John, and put her arms around him in a hug. "It's gr8 to finally meet you John," she said into his shoulder, happy as he was. John just hugged her back.
