AN: Homestuck belongs to Hussie… *eye twitches* Dammit Hussie…..

Terezi wandered her way over to her matesprits hive. It took her a while because the path there had similar, bland, and tasteless colors, so she tripped over roots and stones along the way. When Terezi finally made it to Karkat's hive, she was covered with bruises and teal scratches. She was just about to knock on his front door, when she stopped. Terezi quietly opened the front door and snuck upstairs to Karkat's room. Terezi poked her head inside his room and sniffed around, searching for Karkat.

"Karkles?" she called. Terezi hobbled over to his bed and sat down.

Ever since the trolls met the humans, they abandoned the recuperacoon, and adopted beds to sleep in. Apparently, most of the trolls have slept better in beds than they ever had in their sopor slime. Only Gamzee kept his recuperacoon so he could keep on making his pies.

Terezi was just about to give up on smelling for Karkat and was about to leave, when suddenly there was a force that pushed her down onto the bed, pinning her to the sheets. Terezi was startled at first, but then broke into a toothy grin as she smelled candy. Karkat, who was on top of her, couldn't help but smile a bit himself.

"You really think you can sneak up on me in my own hive, Pyrope?" he growled playfully

Terezi put her hand of Karkats chest and pushed him off. "Good to see you too, Karkles!" she giggled. Karkat blushed as Terezi smelled her favorite scent of all. She couldn't help herself as she leaned over and licked Karkats' cheek.

"Ah! What the fuck, Terezi?" Karkat exclaimed as he pushed her away.

Terezi grinned evilly. "I'm sorry, Karkles. You just smell so good! I can't help myself!" She sniggered.

Karkat wiped his cheek "Gross." He muttered.

Terezi sat up and pouted. "What? So you can stick your tongue down my throat all the time, but I can't lick your cheek?" she asked

"Stick my tongue down your throat?" Karkat repeated. Terezi nodded. "You mean like this?"

Karkat leaned over to his matesprit and started to kiss her. Terezi smiled under his lips as she tasted her favorite flavor.

"Karkat, you're so delicious!" she giggled once they broke apart. Karkat smirked. "You're not so bad yourself, Pyrope."

Suddenly there was a knock on Karkats' hive door. Terezi and Karkat jumped. No one knew they were matesprits. Karkat wanted to keep it a secret. He claimed it was because he didn't want anyone to know he had a soft spot. But Terezi believed that wasn't the only reason why. But as far as anyone knew, they were on the verge of kismesisship. Terezi leaped from Karkats bed and flew to his computer, as Karkat lay back down, trying to put a bored expression on his warm face.

"Hey, best friend." A scratchy voice called. Both Terezi and Karkat groaned.

"In here, Gamzee." Karkat called, his voice sounded tedious. Gamzee walked into the room

"Oh! Hey, Terezi." The highblood said when he saw her. "Hello Gamzee." She said, staring at the screen, waiting for her teal flush to fade.

As Gamzee carried on a one-sided conversation about how he and "Tav-bro" are now matesprits, Terezi logged onto Trollian on Karkats' computer.

Terezi sniggered as she smelled that.

"Hey! Don't get any of your snot on my monitor, you blind idiot!" Karkat called to Terezi, keeping up with the act.

Terezi knew he didn't mean it, he was just pretending. Terezi returned his fake insults with a finger gesture that she genuinely meant.

"Bye, Gamzee" Terezi replied. Karkat just grunted.

Terezi sighed and turned to Karkat. Even though she was blind, she still did her best to pretend she could see. Karkat slumped and put his head down.

"I'm sorry, Terezi." He muttered.

"How much longer are you going to keep this kismesis/matesprit thing up, Karkat?" she asked "Even Gamzee is proud to have a matesprit!"

Karkat's head snapped up. "Are you saying I'm not fucking proud of you?" he practically yelled.

Terezi took off her glasses and stared at him with her scarlet red eyes.

"I'm saying I'm proud to have you as a matesprit. I don't care about your blood color. Or your nubby horns."
Karkat frowned and felt his horns on the top of his head.

Terezi sat down next to him. "I only care about you, you insufferable prick." Terezi smiled a wide toothy grin. Karkat blushed a light pink, but still strong enough to get Terezi's attention.

"What about my mutant red blood? You will be hated by all the trolls out there. A high-mid-blood with a low- blood who is so low, he isn't even on the charts."

Terezi put her forehead on Karkats' and leaned in so their lips were almost touching.

"Karkat?"

Karkat groaned "What?"

Terezi smiled even wider.

"Red is my favorite color."

Karkat slowly opened his eyes and looked around his gray room.

I must have dosed off. He thought

Karkat felt a small, warm hand on his chest. He looked down and immediately felt his face get hot. Terezi seemed to have dozed off as well. She rested her head right below his chin, curled up on his chest. Terezi wasn't wearing her glasses, but her eyes were closed. She must have gotten tired after their "SLOPPY M4K3OUTS"

Karkat allowed the corners of his mouth turn up into a tiny smile

"Terezi. Hey, shit head. Wake up." He said with a nudge.

"Fuckass." Terezi muttered, getting closer to him. "5 more minutes."

Karkat sighed and wrapped his arms around her. He closed his eyes, content with life for now.

"5 more minutes" He agreed.
