Sup. It's finally getting warm in Canada which means that the mosquitoes are coming. I found that out because one bit me on the ass while walking home. Yay, itchiness and sweating! At least it's not below 40 anymore, but enough of my problems. Sorry it's been so long; exams, getting ready to move and it's my birthday this week. x3

Difference Dave x Terezi (& SolkKat) - HumanStuck - suggested by DragonWolfChimera and Guest, I wanted to add Solkat so don't judge (■) - Word count:
The sound of a blaring alarm clock filled the small dorm room, echoing off the shitty walls that smelt like alcohol and sex. The young collage girl yawned and remained in bed, knowing her roomie would turn it off for them both. It was the usual morning routine for the two, wake up at 5:54am and grab a quick breakfast before going to their respectful classes. The reason the two woke up earlier then most was so they could attend 'special' classes that suited their needs. A class the younger was required to go to learn about brail and shit, while the other attended help classes for her anxiety.
"Feferi," the blind girl yelled out, "what day is it?"
"It's Friday," the long haired girl looked down at her friend, "why?"
"I don't have brail classes on Friday, I have english and then music."
"Lucky you," the brunette giggled, "I have class with Mr. GonnaTakeHisIssuesOutOnUs! He always shares his stupid stories and makes us do so much work. You're music teacher is is cool!" She nodded at her friends statement, their music teacher was none other than Mr. Strider, older brother of Dave and Dirk Strider, coolest guys in the school. Also, Dave was one of her friends, introduced to her by John, Feferi's friend. The two had gotten off really well, which was odd seeing as most people had chosen to ignore the blind girl.
It was so hard being different in this modern age, what with people being so judgemental and just wanting to fit in. People always looked at the differences between each other and not at the similarities. Things are also harder when you can't see shit, the girl had learnt. Not being able to see made the world a much darker and lonelier place. It was also much scarier.
"Well I got to go Terezi," her friend gave her a hug, "I'll meet up with you at lunch, okay?"
"Yeah," she grinned, "try not to fall down the stairs again Fefe."
"Shut up!" The door shut with a quiet slam and she smiled, she probably had 5 minutes to get ready before leaving.
I stared at the clock on the wall, watching as the seconds ticked by slowly. The minute hand moved forward one and I sighed, where the fuck was Terezi. I knew I should've gone to get her, she's probably lost and walking up and down fucking random hallways. Suddenly a thought crossed my mind, what if she ran into those bullies. I looked around panicking to realize she was entering the classroom. I called out quietly and her head turned to my direction, letting out a stupid grin. She sat beside me and poked me with her seeing stick thing.
"What's wrong Karks," her fucking grin got bigger, "miss me? Couldnt stand to live without you're love?"
"Shut up Terezi," I inwardly winced at my strained and not at all deep voice, "you know I already have a lover."
"Yes," she tapped her chin, "Mr. Appleberry blast..."
"Ohmyfuckinggod," I put my face on the desk, "stop calling him that! It's fricken weird."
She opened her mouth to speak but it was cut off by the teacher entering the room, carrying a fucking giant pile of papers. I inwardly groaned and put my face back on the table.
"Morning class, Vriska shut it, I have a new assignment for you to work on. I'm trusting you with this assignment, so treat it well, and you can pick a topic. Do whatever as long as it's something worth my time. No, you cannot type it." He sent a glance to Terezi at that last sentence, before moving on with the topic. I tuned him out for the rest of the class, pondering about what I could do with the freedom given. Maybe a book essay, but that seemed too original. I hadn't decided what to do by the time the bell rang so I put it off for later.
"Come on Terezi," I grabbed her shit for her and grabbed her hand, "I'm walking you to class." I kept walking down the busy halls, ignoring the confusion that briefly crossed her face and continued to lead her through the crowd. As we walked past a desolate hall a pair of hands gripped my arm and dragged us from the main hall. I heard Terezi gasp as we suddenly changed course and was slammed against a locker. Two of them held me while the other 3 cornered her.
"Well hello glasses," the asshole took her shades, "what're ya doing holding hands with Mr. Flamboyant? Is he cheating on his man beef with you?" She frowned before reaching out for them, only to miss as he took a step back.
"No touching," I watched in horror as he punched her in the jaw, drawing blood and giving a sickening pop sound. She groaned but kept a straight face refusing to look at them.
"Oh no," he murmered loudly, "we hurt your pretty face, but who cares. You can't see it anyway... haha!"
"Leave her alone fuckass," I ripped away from their grip and kicked him in the mistletoe, "run Terezi!" I watched as she sprinted down the hall, almost falling a few times, and kicked at the several guys. I doubled over as one of the jocks hit me in the ribs before repeatedly kicking me all over. One of them nailed me right on the head and I felt a ripple of pain surge throughout my body, making me give a strangled gasp and groan. I felt myself being picked up before being shut inside a locker.
I scrambled to where music class was, following my memory, and burst into music class crying. I heard a few people get up and someone put a hand on my shoulder.
"Ms. Pyrope, what happened?"
"We we're walking through the hall and then they cornered us..." I sniffed, "they hit me and then Karkat hit him and told me to run, but..." I stopped and started bawling, tired of how stupid and mean the world was. Mad at myself for leaving Karkat behind.
"Shit, let's go Terezi," Dave grabbed my hand, "do you know where?" I shook my head and dragged him along, trying to retrace my steps as the teacher walked behind us, calling someone. I heard Dave dial a number and speak into it, I'm guessing it was Sollux, and tell them about what happened. We reached the familiar smelling hallway but there was no sign of Karkat.
"You sure it was here Tere-" Dave stopped when a groan emerged from what I'm assuming was a locker. A familiar sounding groan with that strained tone to it. I nudged Dave with my stick and nodded to the direction where the sound came from. I took a few steps closer as Dave began prying the lock open when it suddenly popped open, a grunt and soft thud landing infront of me.
"Holy shit Karkat!" I listened with curiosity and worry as sounds began to get louder around me. I clenched my jaw, feeling the pain that came with the movement, and guided my eyes to what I guessed was Karkles. I opened my mouth to ask how bad it was when I heard Sollux yell out.
"Holy thith KK," his footsteps grew closer and he ran past me to Karkles, "oh my god!" I just stood there feeling useless as more and more people gathered around before an ambulance showed up and him and Sollux left. Dave grabbed my hand and led me to the nurses office, talking about how an assignment he had gotten in bio about dissecting a frogs dick or something. I listened and let out a stiff nod as he continued talking while the nurses took a look at my jaw. She left after a few minutes and I felt the bed dip when he sat beside me.
"You okay Terezi?" I shook my head, Dave could see through me easier than Karkles could.
"You know it's not your fault, and I'm not just saying it, it's society's fault for being such a judgemental asshole. Maybe if people in our world were chilled with being different and weird then this shit wouldn't happen. Guess more people need to be like me, huh?" I assume he gave a cocky grin and I couldn't help but punch his arm and laugh. Feferi and John introduced us when we were young and had no worries, it was also before I went blind.
I was living with my dad in a small apartment, my mother had died a few years ago, and my father continued to blame me for her death. He'd hit me and yell at me but since Mom died I grew stronger and just ignored it, it wasn't anything too bad. A few weeks after I met Dave I found out we lived in the same building, so I went to his place to hang after school. When I returned home my dad cornered me, saying how while I was going out and havin fun while Mom was lying dead in a coffin. Not only was he mad, but he was drunk, and then he smashed bottle across my face. I cried and fell onto the floor, screaming as the glass got into my eyes. He ran off before anyone came, and that anyone was Dave. He was with his Bro and the two took me to the hospital. I ended up living with Feferi and her mom till we moved into the collage dorm.
My thoughts trailed off as fingers snapped infront of my face.
"Yo Terezi," I smiled in his direction, "wanna come to my place?"
"You sure?"
"Yeah girl. Bro can buy us a pizza, he owes me." I laughed and nodded, getting up and almost tripping my cane. He gave a quick laugh and dragges me outside.
"YO BRO!" I cupped my hands around my mouth and yelled. I looked around and dragged Terezi inside, sitting her down on my sofa before going to raid the fridge. I opened the door to the food and an ass load of smuppets poured out and I tried to run but slipped on one.
"HOLY MOTHER OF ALL THINGS FUCKY!" I screeched and landed on my back, which effectively knocked the wind out of me. I groaned and pushed a orange smuppet away from my face. I swear to god Terezi had snickered at me before extending a hand, which I took gratefully.
"Way to stay on your toes asshole." Bro patted me on the back before giving a cocky grin.
"Shut up and order the usual pizza," I titled me head to Terezi, "school was a bitch." He raised a brow before nodding to the kitchen and going to the phone. I placed Terezi on the couch and told her to wait before going to the kitchen.
"What happened today," Bro held the phone in his hand while speaking with a quiet voice, "looks like a she had it rough." I was thankful for the shades as tears gently pricked my eyes. Those fucking assholes that cornered her and Karkat were horrible people. I was sick of the abuse she was receiving for not being society's standard of normal.
"Just some assholes who jumped her," I bit my lip, "when I wasn't there." I stared at the floor feeling major guilty. I almost jumped when a small hand went to my shoulder.
"It's not your fault Cool Kid," I saddened at the nickname, "I'm fine." I grabbed her hand and slowly made my way to the stairs, leaving behind a seemingly sad yet proud Bro.
"Wanna do some Mario Kart?" Girl kicked ass at the game, I don't know how.
She looked in my direction before giving a excited grin, "Sure! Be prepared to have your ass kicked Stri-" I turnes on the game console while giving her a quick kiss. As I pulled away and put in the game disc I smirked at the flustered look on her face, almost laughing as she started smiling and returned the favor.
What happens to Karkat you may ask? He's okay, and then has sloppy makeouts with Sollux! XD sorry it's shitty but Imma try and pump some out!
