Terezi Pyrope sat there on a rock as Karkat Vantas fidgeted around, as he looked beyond the hill they sat on. He was only a few feet away. They were both now 8 solar sweeps old, they were running away from their problems; they were outcasts, even from their friends.

Since killing your kismesis was always frowned upon, all of Terezi's friends on Trollian unfriended her, except for Karkat, he sent her a message instead.

'CG: I HEARD EVERYBODY WAS UNFRIENDING YOU, DON'T FUCKING WORRY, I SURE AS HELL WONT.

GC: TH4NKS, 1 KNOW HOW MUCH TH4T'D CRUSH 4NYON3

GC: 3V3RYON3 W4NTS TO B3 YOUR FR13ND :]

CG: POINT IS, US OUTCASTS HAVE TO FUCKING STICK TOGETHER RIGHT?

GC: HOW 4R3 YOU 4N OUTC4ST?

CG: BECAUSE OF MY MUTANT BLOOD

GC: TH4T SM3LLS TH3 B3ST

CG: UH YEAH, WELL, SHIT, THANKS'

Terezi ran her hands up and down her bare arms. She was cold, she knew she should've brought a jacket before her and Karkat left. But she didn't have any. The forest was always warm. There was just no reason to have one.

She sniffed again, but Karkat was gone. She almost lost it. First he convinced her to leave with him, then he made her suffer through the coldness, and then he just left her sitting on a rock? As she stood up, however, she felt a type of pressure push her back down on the rock. She also smelled Karkat's jacket on her, and felt his hands on her shoulders.

"You looked cold. You didn't think I'd actually leave you here like a cold hearted bastard, did you?"

"Yea, cause that's who you are. But thanks for the jacket. I was cold." Before he stood up, she gave him a peck on the cheek, or tried, accidently kissing his nose. He got up and kissed her on the forehead before going back to his spot from before.

Karkat was running away from his blood, yet again. In his last memo, Kanaya had accidently slipped up, and mentioned his blood color.

'CT: D- Wow you're way lower than me

TA: that must have been why you freaked when y0u started bleeding

CC: T)(is is sad

TC: mOiLrAiLs FoR nEvEr!

AC: :33 *tries to lick Karkat better*

GC: 1'M SORRY TH3Y KNOW NOW :'[ '

He immediately unfriended Kanaya, even though he wasn't exactly sure why. After that, his friend's list went way down. From 11, to 2. The only two who didn't unfriend him were Terezi and Nepeta. That's when he started chatting to Terezi, as he left his hive.

CG: THAT'S JUST A BIT TOO DAMN FAR ISN'T IT?

Though, he really was going over, he just wanted to surprise her. They were both outcasts. Maybe they could go somewhere new together. On his way over, he just kept talking to her about other stuff. When he got to her tree he stopped talking through Trollian.

GC: W3LL 1T'S G3TT1NG L4T3, 1 SHOULD G3T GO1NG

CarcinoGeneticist [CG] ceased trolling GallowsCalibrator [GC]

GC: YOU COULDN'T 4T L34ST S4Y BY3? :[

"Now why the fuck would I want to do that?" He shouted outside her window. She turned, and ran to the window and sniffed for him. But she was at the wrong window. She left and ran to the other, but tripped on one of her scalemates. She quickly got up and got to the window.

"But didn't you say you weren't coming?" She grinned her special grin.

"What kind of damn surprise would it be if I told you?"

"Fair enough, Hehehe! Come on up!" He went inside her tree and walked up. She gave him a hug. "What are you doing here!" She asked looking up at him, which was kind of pointless because of her blindness.

"I'm leaving my hive. And…Shit… I thought, maybe you'd like to come with…? I…I mean we're both outcasts now. We're fucking screwed here." Karkat asked, fiddling with her hair. It had grown a little since he last saw her.

"Leave? But my tree is so warm and comfy." He looked down at her.

"I knew you wouldn't, not in a million fucking solar sweeps." It sadden him, but she deserved to be happy. She tried to kiss his lips but only kissed his chin.

"Let me finish! I was going to say, but if you want to go, you have NO choice but to take me with you." She went by her desk, and made sure she had canekind then went back other to him. "I'm ready." As she went down the stairs, Karkat walked in front of her to make sure she didn't trip and fall down the stairs. While they walked away from her tree, she said one last goodbye to it.

Terezi hugged the jacket around her, and waited for Karkat. But she wasn't a patient lady. She stood up and sniffed his exact location and tried her best to put her hand on his shoulder, but only ended up jabbing him in the arm.

"Terezi! What the hell is your problem?" He asked grabbing her hand.

"I can't see you."

"Oh…Right… So… what the hell did you want?" He kept a firm grip on her hand, even though she squirmed.

"Have decided where to go yet?"

"I think so."
