Chapter 13: You Guys Knew This Would Happen?!

The kiss lasted a few seconds, but those were probably the best seconds ever.

Sollux leaned away and stared at me with lidded eyes. I looked up into those mix-matched eyes and tried to speak.

"I um... I... ohmygod."

"Hehe, surprise~" I was the one to end the staring because I knew that if I stared any longer, I wouldn't be able to breath again.

Looking at the television I spoke actual words this time.

"So, you like me..."

"Yeah."

"Okay."

"Tho... Now that you know... Do you, um... ya' know. Like me too?"

I didn't risk a look at Sollux, but I did grab his hand. By the way he scooted closer so our bodies were actually touching, he understood what I meant. We stayed that way on the couch even till we fell asleep. Our hands never left each others.

The next morning I chose to pester him about going on a date to make the relationship official.

"Common Sooolll. We can go anywhere!"

"Guuh, fine. But I get to pick where we go."

"Deal! But at least dress nice for our first date!"

Sollux looked down at the loose jeans and t-shirt he was wearing and shrugged.

"What'th wrong with what I'm wearing?"

I walked over to the closet and slid the wooden door open. Grabbing a pair of black jeans, a white V-neck, and a nice looking black and yellow jacket, I threw it at him and made him change into them.

"If thith ith jutht an exthuthe to look at my hot bod..." He grinned at me as he lifted his shirt. Looking away from Sollux, I walked out of the room to try to cool my face.

"Just hurry up, and pick a place already..."

Once we were out of the house and in his car, he started to drive in the direction I knew so well.

"Oh my cod Sol. You ass."

We turned into the parking lot of SeaSaltCaramel.

Getting out of car, he grabbed my hand and he dragged me into the cafe. I tried to resist but he ended up just picking me up by waist. For a nerd, he was surprisingly strong.

He put me down in front of the back door then smiled at me, our hands entwined.

"Seriously, why here of all places? It's not even open yet."

"Becauthe we met here."

I lifted an eyebrow and him then smiled myself. He could be pretty cute when he wanted too.

We shoved the double doors open and walked in. A gasp and a squee came from the corner of the kitchen. We looked to see who it was and saw Nepeta jumping and smiling like a little kid on Christmas Eve. Aradia walked in through the doors that led to the main restaurant. She strode over to the both of us and gave us a hug.

"Dear god. Took you two long enough."

Nepeta came bouncing our direction. She could be an adorable Tigger now that I look at her.

"So did you guys make sure you wore purrtection?"

Sudden realization hit me.

"OH MY COD. DID ALL OF YOU KNOW THAT THIS RELATIONSHIP WOULD HAPPEN?!"

Aradia and Nepeta looked at each for a second. Sollux remained slightly dazed as he processed my words.

"Kinda, yeah," they uttered together.

"How many of you guyth expected uth to get together anywayth?!"

Aradia adjusted her apron then looked up at the both of us,"Let's see... Me, Nepeta, Karkat, Gamzee-"

"Kar and Gam too?!"

"Feferi-"

"Holy thit..."

"Kanaya, Equius... Oh and Terezi, and even Vriska."

"THE HELL, I HAVEN'T EVEN TALKED TO VRIS IN OVER FOUR MONTHS." I began to bang my head on the fridge next to me.

"How the hell doeth TZ even know about ED?" He tried to stop me from banging my head, but he helped me in sliding to the floor.

"Appawrently Ampurra cleaned out most of the shelves at her art store!"

"That blind girl?" I moaned into the side of the fridge.

"Yup! Efurryone ships you two!"

The dread was almost unbearable. Everyone had predicted our relationship before we even knew. I turned slightly to see Sollux's face, and I could see the shock glued to it. Now everything made sense. My conclusion?

Everyone sucks.

"Ya know-w you could hav-ve told us instead of giv-ven really bad hints..."

"Yes, but what would be the fun of that. You guys had an epic love story going on! And a relationship like that would need time to make it happen. I just helped out a bit here and there," I saw Aradia cross her arms and wink at me. Never in my life have I been so terrified of a wink before.

"But I bet you guys came for something else besides us telling you two that we all knew you were purrfect for each other?"

"Y-yeah," Sollux rubbed the back of his neck," We were gonna have a date here..."

"Aww! How cute! Don't worry Pawllux, Ampurra, your first date will be PURRFECT!"

Nepeta scampered away, grabbed Equius as he was in mid towel drying, and towed him away to who knows where to get who knows what. Then Aradia's phone started ringing.

"You got everything? Okay."

She hung up then started shoving Sollux and me out into the café. She led us to a corner table next to a window. There was a large milkshake with two straw in it. My gosh, I swear Karkat set this up.

Hesitantly, we sat down on the tall bar chairs and looked wearily at Nepeta and Aradia. They smiled then quickly stepped away from us as they opened up for the day. The whole café and restaurant was nearly filled within a couple of minutes. Sollux and I sat awkwardly, staring down at the classic romance movie shake in front of us. We looked up at each other and started laughing.

The scene was so ironically cute it only made us laugh even harder.

We started talking about nearly everything after that. How apparently, our group of friends were all linked together in one giant loop, how our classes were going, what our pasts where like, what were our dreams, what our favourite color were, what our zodiacs were. Everything.

Somehow, we stayed there for hours, not even noticing Nepeta,Aradia, Equius, or even Gamzee! Coming to give us food or a refill on drinks we forgot we even ordered.

We ended our last conversation with a kiss outside the café doors as the lights went dim. It was so perfect and it didn't even end when we drove back home.

At least, not until we got home.

Sollux removed the note from the door and read.

I'm sorry to inform you but this apartment complex as well as the surrounding complex's will have to be evacuated within a month for termination. This area will made into a high class social shopping center to pay for a better community by funding several things. Thank you for your understanding and have a nice day.
