A/N: I'm so so sorry that I haven't updated in awhile I've sort of lost inspiration for this story so I'm sorry if it's not very good. Anyway here you guys go. I don't know how long it'll take for me to get the next chapter out but please bear with me.


I'm trying hard to process all this stuff I just heard but my brain seems to be on overdrive. My thoughts are just too jumbled up. The only things I can really make out are that 1. Eridan knew Karkat, they had been friends and he didn't even tell me. 2. Karkats boyfriend killed Karkats other boyfriend John? Right? This was all just too much to process. All I knew really was that he was in danger as long as he stayed near Gamzee so Eridan and I would just have to keep an eye on him.

I looked at Eridan. "Tho let me get thith thraight. You know Karkat and you never told me?" I look to Eridan as he and Karkat finally let go of each other. He looks away sheepishly scratching the back of his neck.

"Um Ya..." he says looking up at me.

"Great friend you are Eridan." I say sarcastically. Karkat looks from me to him trying to figure out why were acting this way.

"So is there something I'm missing here?" he asks still looking back and forth between us.

"No nothing at all." I know he knows I'm lying but I don't want him to know the reason behind it just yet.

"Okay well you know thanks for your help earlier but I can't stay I need to leave..." Karkat says and my head instantly snaps towards him. I give him this look that says 'are you insane?'

"Well um I sort of don't want him coming here because well if he does he'll kill you both...you can't underestimate him. I of all people should know...plus I um don't really want somebody I only just met getting hurt because of me and also you Eridan I mean we've just been reunited so I wouldn't want anything to happen to you. Sorry but I have to go I'm leaving." He says getting up from the bed. Before he goes far though Eridan has latched onto his arm.

"Kar don't don't go...I already lost you once. I don't want to lose you again." He says looking down to hide his tears but I can clearly see them. Karkat halts in place he's frozen. I can tell that he's really conflicted on what he should do. "I um I'm really sorry Eri. I have to go..." He pulled Eridan into a brief hug before pulling away. He turned to me and did the same but before he pulled away he whispered into my ear. "I know...I know that's why I can't stay" he said to me. Then he ran out of the room, grabbed his bag and left the house. I was shocked I couldn't believe anything that just happened if it weren't for Eridan I would've believed it all to be a dream. I was also curious I had no clue what he meant by he knew. What did he know? I looked over to Eridan. He had a blank look on his face and his eyes were emotionless as silent tears slowly fell down his face.

I went over to him. "ED are you gonna be okay?" I pulled him into a hug but he didn't respond. "ED it's gonna be okay." I told him more to reassure myself then him because I didn't know what I'd do if something happened to him. Deep down I hoped he'd come back but somehow I knew he probably wouldn't. He didn't want anyone to get hurt but I would rather get hurt then have him be.

Eridan was now crying into my shoulder. "I l-let him get away again. I'm horrible." He said placing his head in his hands.

"It's not your fault just lay down and I'll figure something out. Go to sleep ED." he listened laying down on my bed and crawling under the covers. After I saw he was properly settled I left the room.

Sitting down on the couch I place my arm over my eyes. 'What am I going to do? What does he know?' Those are the two questions running through my mind as I slowly drift off to sleep thinking of him and what I should do.

My problems followed me into my dreams unfortunately.

My Name is Sollux Captor and I need to save Karkat Vantas.
