OMG this story has 155 views! I expected it to get less than 10. I've noticed I make a lot of mistakes but i'll try fix them, I promise! Also sorry i never did the DirkJake chapter. I tried but it seemed too boring so i typed this one instead. Thanks for the views *all the love*

"Jade! You've been in the bathroom for an hour. We've got to go!" I called up to the bathroom. In about an hour Rose was having a party at her night club, The Purple Grimoire.

"Yeah, i'm coming!" Jade called back in that annoying, bitchy tone that all woman do. Honestly, I can't understand the opposite gender. I've had girlfriends in the past but they never went well or I got fed up of their moaning (one tried to stab me). Jades footsteps can be heard a mile away with the six-inch green high-heels she's wearing. I watch as she carefully makes her way down the stairs trying not to trip on her dress. She was wearing a long black and green dress slit up the side of her leg to her lower thigh. Three In The Morning she called it? It is one of many dresses that she has crafted herself.

"Karkat's going to be pissed if we don't hurry" I whined walking out the door, checking the time on my phone it was 19:13.

"John, Karkat would be pissed anyway."

"True."

The car ride to my best friend Karkat's apartment building was silent. It wasn't one of those awkward silences though. Me and Jade fall into comfortable silences often. I was about to text Karkat that I was waiting outside but the door to the small-ish building opened and two figures made their way to my car. I could tell instantly that it was the one and only stoner, Gamzee Makara that is with Karkat. He is extremely tall, standing at six four two. Gamzee slouched a lot so no one knew his height exactly. Karkat on the other hand was dwarfed by the taller male. He stands about five foot one so everyone in our friend group was taller than him by quite a bit, well accept for the cat-like girl Nepeta (who stands at a short five foot three ). That reminds me, i'll have to keep Jade and Nepeta as separate as I can. Surprisingly when you have two people who posses dog and cat like qualities, they tend to fight like cats and dogs do. The doors of the car open and Gamzee and Karkat enter the back seat from opposite sides.

"As usual your fuckass car reeks of smoke." Karkat makes the same remark every time he steps into my car.

"And as usual you can't go one second without bitching about something" I smirk and look at him through the rearview mirror as I pull out and drive to Roses party.

Again the car was silent, if you don't count Gamzee giggling to himself every so often. It seems that when I drive somewhere with passengers it always falls silent. Not even the radio gets turned on. If it was someone else's car we'd be talking without stopping to breathe. I parked in the reserved spaces in front of The Purple Grimoire. All four of us piled out the car and into the club. Rose had shut down the place so that she could throw a party for her girlfriend Kanaya Maryam. 'Feels Like Forever' by Of mice and men is blasting from the speakers. They're one of my favorite bands so my mood kind of brightens up as I walk in.

I scan the purple and black interior of the club, listing off the people who had shown up. I saw Sollux who is clearly bugged that Aradia won't let go of his arm, he also happened to be checking out Eridan- the annoying hipster douche who Sollux has a thing for Eridan, even if he refuses to admit it- who is with Ferferi. Nepeta was perched on Equis's shoulders, perfectly as usual, in one of the corners of the room. Tavros had shown up with Rufioh. I haven't seen Tav in a while though, not after he got the operation to fix his spine. He had been in an accident and fell off a small cliff while amercing in a harmless role playing game. Everyone knew it was the great spider obsessed bitch, Vriska Serket pushed him. Apparently he was lucky to get his legs back because the operation had a seventy-five percent change of failure. Speaking of Serket, she was sat at one of the bars chatting away to Terezi. Vriska was also the cause of the shorter girls blindness. The Alpha kids, as we call them, are missing their fourth member, Jane. Roxy was drinking mouthfuls of vodka straight from the bottle. Dirk and Jake sat together on the opposite side of the bar to her with their shoulders touching. Rose stood with the two French girls, Porrim and Kanaya, in the middle of the room. The three of them looked too elegant for their own good. Yeah, Porrim had several tattoos and piercing but she made them look graceful. Porrim also owned a tattoo parlor like Roxy but hers is on the other side of town. Mostly everyone was here but I couldn't see Dave anywhere. It's not like I really care...

Okay I do. I don't know. I just really want to talk to him, I feel like I know him from somewhere even though i'm pretty sure i've never met him before I walked into Jade's flower shop.

Karkat and Gamzee immediately split off from me and Jade. Karkat headed to Sollux and Aradia, Gamzee walked to Tavros.

"I'm going to say hi to rose!" said jade.

"I'll come with you"

We walk up to Rose, Kanaya and Porrim. I wish Kanaya a happy twenty-first birthday and listen as the four girls chat idly between each other.

"Rose are you not a bit too young to be running a club?" Jade asked. Her green eyes wide as she looked around.

"Jade I'm twenty-three, I think I can." Rose replied with a smug tone.

The girls were soon joined by Terezi and Vriska. I took that as a sign to leave.

The party had been in full swing for about two hours now. Almost everyone was drunk but I didn't really feel like drinking all that much. I had a couple of shots and about three bottles of blue wicked. I noticed the door to the roof was open. I need fresh air from everyone down here. I take my chance and slip through the door and walk up the steep stairs. Once i open the door and step onto the roof I see a silhouette of a man straight ahead of me leaning over the edge of the wall. His elbows supported his weight while he leaned into them. He had several cans of beer around him or was it apple juice? I approach him but he doesn't notice me. Being a prankster I take my opportunity to scare him. I crouch down slightly and lift as much weight as I can from my feet. I creep up slowly until I am an arms length away from him. I lift my tattooed arms. My hands hover over his sides... Suddenly I grab him making him jump. He had knocked his shades off his face exposing his eyes. Wait shades? I look to his hair then to his face, I had just scared the shit out of none other than Dave Strider.

"What the fuck, man?" He exclaimed with a harsh tone.

I was too busy laughing to reply.

"Sorry, I saw you out here and I didn't notice it was you." I sighed finally calming down.

"That doesn't answer my question, Egderp." He hasn't looked up since the aviators got knocked off his face.

"You never noticed me so I took my chance. Hey, you know it's rude not to look at people when they talk to you?"

"Haha very funny and yes, Dad, I did."

Wow, way to put venom in your words.

"Then why won't you, son?" I teased.

Dave let out a depressed sigh and said "I have this weird eye deal going on. It freaks people out to I try to hide it."

He bent down and scooped up his glassed like they would break under the slightest touch.

"I bet it's not that bad" I lightly punch his arm when he straightens himself.

I wish I hadn't said that now. Dave had looked up at me and stared me dead in the eyes. He had one scarlet and ocean blue eye. Exactly like mine, well except his left eye was red instead of the right. We just stood there battling out in a mini staring contest. I can't believe how beautiful my freak eyes look on him. They go perfectly with his pale features. Unconsciously I raise my hand to cup his cheek. He tenses at the action.

"You must be shocked, disgusted, despise the-" He starts but I cut him off.

"You're wrong. They're beautiful."

Oh. My. Fucking. God.

I didn't just say that. I suppress a blush that threatens to show. Dave is obviously as shocked as me. His face is red up to his ears and his mouth is open like he's about to say something.

"I-uh... Em... You really think s-so?" He doesn't seem the type of guy to show emotion but, damn, when he did he was adorable.

Shit no. John Egbert you cannot think a guy is cute! You are not a homosexual!

Not a homo. No.

I quickly take my hand away and tun my head away, my blush must be more than visible. I mentally slap myself over and over during the awkward silence that had fell.

Just to let you know, i'm a massive band person. Yea so that's this chapter. Thanks again. I'm tired so i'm going to sleep :D
