Journey to the Fountain of Cute
Author's Note: OH MY GOD THE FLUFFY. THERE'S SO MUCH FLUFFY I HAD THE FLUFFIES WHEN I WAS WRITING IT. Equius, y u bein' so.. acceptin'?
Nepeta ran with tears in her eyes. She didn't know where she was going, but she ran. She couldn't purrssibly see Equius again! Oh, no, no, no. She did not want to have those feelings for him. Not again. He was rude and his noble bullshit drove her up the wall! But she did care for him, and thought he'd be feeling pretty down right now. He didn't have anyone to cuddle up to and share feelings with.
Nepeta ceased running, turned around and sobbed, "I must be the worst meowrail ever! We can't even talk about feelings 'cause I was so fussy!"
She didn't know this, but, if her eyes weren't so blurry from crying, she would've seen a big, brute, unhappy troll waiting for a snuggly embrace.
Equius stood there for a while, dumbfounded.
He was sweating like a pig.
"Nepeta, I was afraid you would get lost and injured. You are my first priority." Equius sighed, thinking about how careless she is. Her rebellious side scares him, but makes him more and more attracted to her. He waited for a reply, but didn't get one. All he heard was her muffled sobs. Why in all of Alternia would she be so upset?
Then he remembered what he said about Karkat.
"Nepeta. A real man can only talk about his feelings for so long. Let's talk about yours this time."
She nods as he picks her up to carry her back to her hive.
"Now first off, Nepeta, as much as I do not approve of your red infatuation with Karkat, I think it would be most acceptable to say that it is for a number of reasons. First off, my red infatuation with you would be a very good example. I will not allow you to carry out this for much longer, but because of your childish ways I will pretend like it does not exist until it doesn't.. but now share what you feel."
Nepeta nods and snuffles, "Equius, you're a big meanie meowrail. I am furry angry with you! Karkitty has nothing to do with you, and you better leave him alone! Furrget what I said about him, it is nonexistent and I do not enjoy this! I thought I could share what was on my mind but you keep butting in on what I think and what I do! It is not your choice even if you think it is!" Nepeta started to shout.
How horrid it must be to love someone and have them not love you back.
But this was not the case, you see. Nepeta did have a flushed crush on Equius. She's tried to tell him, but she thought he would think she was joking, because "he's a higher class on the hemospectrum".
