Hey people! UGH, I really should be working on my Loki fic but I got all Johndave-ish.

Just for your info, this is going to be a loooooong fic, this is just the beginning!

Enjoy!

I dont own Homestuck or any of its characters!

Your name is Dave Strider and you are very pissed of.

You are on your way to meet your friend Rose Lalonde, who thinks you haven't been acting like yourself lately (which is absurd, you are as cool as always). She insists that you´ve been closing up and has forced you to meet at her favorite restaurant for one of you little "talks". You hate those talks because Rose just goes all psych on you and it is fucking annoying.

You decide to not think about that for now and distract yourself with your surroundings. You look at the buildings that you pass by. There is a coffee shop across the street and a book store on the side you are at. Cars are quickly driving through the street. By the time the light becomes red there are no more cars. Some boy begins to walk across…

Suddenly you see a car coming and you can tell it´s planning to ignore the red. Your eyes open wide as you realize that the car is going so fast that is wont stop before it realizes the boy is crossing. Your instincts take over, and before you can process anything, you are running faster than you ever had. The boy just realized the car is about to hit him and you just get a glimpse at the frightened look in his eyes before you push him out of the way and you both land back on the sidewalk, safe.

There´s silence. You can feel the boy trembling lightly in your arms. Your heartbeat is running so wildly that you have to take in a few breaths before you can say,

"Are you alright?" The boy doesn't answer. He´s holding tightly onto your shirt. You rub his back a little "Hey, it´s alright. Everything´s fine, you´re ok, see?" The boy is still trembling and is still holding you but he moves his head up a bit, just enough too look at you. When you see his face for the first time you feel something strange in your chest. His eyes, bright with fright, were baby blue. He has messy black hair and square glasses that seemed to almost be part of his face. He has buckteeth that made him look like a bunny. The boy blinked a couple of times, taking deep breaths. "See, everything´s ok." Everything had been so fast that the people around you hadn't really noticed the near death experience that had just occurred. The boy stopped blinking and stared at you for a minute. You wondered what was going on inside his head. You think he´s wondering how the fuck he ended up in some stranger´s arms. "My name is Dave, can you stand up?" The boy seemed to snap out of whatever trance he had been in and nodded. He was still shaking lightly but you were able to help him up. Neither of you have let go of the other. Finally the boy speaks,

"Thank you," he clears his throat a bit "I´m John." he pauses "are you ok?" That was when you realized that you were also shaking and that not only had you helped him up but you had needed some assistance as well. You swallow and nod.

"Yeah I´m cool. Everything´s cool" You both look at each other for a second. Then you both realize you haven't lessened your grip on each other. You both let go. The boy, John, speaks again.

"Wow… my mind is messed up. Can you tell me what just happened?" You can't help feel like your mind is a bit messed up too, but you know enough to tell him. "Some idiot ignored the red light, he was about to hit you and I… just pushed you out of the way." John's eyes opened wide and nodded.

"Yes! Thank you! You saved my life!" You see him smile for the first time and you are filled with need to just keep him smiling, forever. "You´re the coolest, I mean, you saved someone´s life! what´s cooler than that!" You can feel yourself smiling, just slightly.

"And you don´t even know half the story, I´m the coolest guy around man." You don´t know why, but it feels so natural to talk with him. John opens his mouth to say something but suddenly your phone rings and suddenly you remember Rose and you remember that she is waiting for you and you´re about to have the shittiest talk of a life time. Your mood drops dramatically as you take your phone out of your pocket. You look back at John, you notice his mood has dropped as well. His smile has fallen and you wish you could do anything to bring it back, but you know you can´t. You´re glad he´s ok but it´s time to go back to reality. John seems to realize this too. "I need to leave, I´m meeting up with someone." you say. John nods.

"Yeah, thanks again, you know, for saving me." You nod and turn to walk away. Your phone is still ringing, but you ignore it. For some reason every step you take makes the feeling in your chest tighten. What´s wrong? You look back at John to see he is staring at the sky, lost in thought, or maybe just lost. Something inside you seems to click. You stop walking and answer your phone. You have made a decision.

"Rose-"

"Where are you? You didn´t forget we were going to meet me did you?"

"I didn´t Rose, but something came up."

"What do you mean?"

"Look, I can´t go Rose. I´ll see you later ok? Sorry."

"Wait! Da-"

You hang up.

You take a deep breath and you turn to face the boy who´s life you just saved. He is still staring at the sky. He hasn´t moved an inch. You watch him for a second, then walk towards him.

"Hey, John!"

He blinks a couple times before he looks at you. He looks surprised.

"Hey cool kid. Didn´t you have to meet with someone?" You let yourself give a small smile.

"They canceled," you pause for a second before you point at the coffee shop right next to them. "Do you want to go inside and get something?"

John stares blankly at you for a second and you wonder if you were creeping him out, but suddenly he is smiling brightly and says "Yeah! Lets go!"

You really like that smile.
