Humanstuck chapter five.
Neither you or Karkat were wearing a jacket but the rain was just drizzling now.
He shoved his hands in the pockets of his grey hoodie and cast his eyes so that he was staring at the sidewalk.
"Its only a game Kar..." You say.
He looks back at you and rolls his red eyes.
"I know. Egbert just gets on my fucking nerves."
"He's just doing his best to make sure you guys all have a great summer," you attempt to cheer him up.
He sighs,"it's going to be a lot longer then the summer."
"What do you mean?"
Karkats eyes met yours,"my guardian want me to stay here and get a job."
"Guardian?" You ask.
He turns red,"uh ya guardian."
"Oh," you blush and decide not to pry.
"So why the fuck did you ever decide to hang out with the Egderp?"
You laugh,"we were actually really close when we were kids. We met one day when he crashed his bike into me."
"So he's been an idiot since wrigglehood?"
"What?"
"Nothing. What happened after that?"
"I didn't stop crying until he told me I could play on his tire swing. After that we were always friends. We saw the most of each other in the summer though."
"Why?"
"Different schools, and then for the last three years we just...were both really busy."
"I don't see why you'd want to be around the fuckass anyway."
"He's a good friend, he always has been. And you know that too."
He glared at you but it faded away,"ya I guess. Besides, he must be ok if you can stand him."
"What was that?"
"Nothing. Now where the fuck do you live?"
"Its up the street about a block, so who raised you?"
"Crabdad?"
"What?"
He paused and his face when't red,"my dad he uhhhh was really crabby?"
You blink at him,"ok.... How did you meet Sollux?"
"Over trollion."
"Oh whats that?"
"Uhhh our school chatroom," he pauses,"we were the fighting trolls."
"Oh did you play any sports?"
"What the hell is a sport?"
"What?"
"Nothing!"
You tried to spend the rest of the walk home questioning Karkat about Canada but he changed the subject.
You wondered why.
No matter what you ask about him he changed the subject to generic people in the group or you.
You liked Karkat and the others in the group. But something was telling you...there was more to the story.
Something they were keeping from you.
You walk up to your front door and Karkat begins to walk away.
"Well can I get a hug?" You ask smiling and extending your arms.
He rolled his eyes but wrapped his arms around you.
He was about to pull away when you when't close to his ear.
"I don't know what your hiding. But I'm gonna find out."
He pulls away looking a little shocked. You beam at him,"later KK!"
His expression turns sour again,"later (f/n)"
Sorry its so short!
