HS-Chic:In Love Ch.9

A/N
Second day of no internet(I was writing this when I didn't have it so when I release it I will probably have internet) and it's really sad ;A;. Well since I forgot my house keys I went to my friend's house anyway and used her internet and there was no point because I just can't even email anything, but having no internet is also a good thing. I get to write more of this fanfiction, draw more, and do more homework XD. I hope the story is interesting still >< Tell me if I made any grammar errors because I can be very dyslexic.
THANK YOU!

Chapter 9  

Another day has past by and Jade still haven't come back to work. This made Karkat worried a bit. Deep inside he actually wanted to apologize to Jade because what he did to her was unnecessary (when Rose told him the truth about the whole situation). He wanted alone time in his office so he sent Terezi away back to her office. Terezi understands, and still follow Karkat's orders. The man felt terrible and stupid; he actually broke a poor girl's heart even though she was innocent this whole time. He slams his hand onto his desk.

gDAMN! Why am I so stupid?!h Karkat cursed.

In this situation Rose would have probably said something like, gBecause you areh, or gYou are just naturally stupidh, which wouldn't have even helped the situation whatsoever.  

gIf I haven't done that then I could have also gotten a good review from her too!h Karkat continued.

Karkat probably wouldn't have notice, but the words he just said were pretty shallow. He shouldn't just be nice to Jade because she could greviewh his company but it was also good to just be nice to anyone in general. Karkat was too absorbed in his business to even notice how she would feel to the whole situation; thus her sickness. Nevertheless, when she comes back to help Rose out he knows that he would apologize sincerely and not do anything to hurt her again.

gI'm such a gentleman!h Karkat boasted.



As the day go by Jade was lying on her bed peacefully. She was just looking up at the ceiling, as any other sick person would do. She was indeed feeling better, but not so great that she could go back to work. She would get visits from John every day and he would make dinner for her. It would usually be something warm, like soup or porridge. She does enjoy them, since she doesn't eat them as often (she doesn't usually get sick). She then turned around to her side and thought about Sollux for a moment.

gI wonder how he was doingh Jade mumbled to herself.

She then slowly closes her eyes and falls into another deep sleep. Meanwhile, in a place that wasn't so far Sollux was coming up with more designs at his office.

gIf I made the hoodie black with pink paint splashes..h Sollux was concentrating.

After an hour later he then finishes the design of the hoodie. It wasn't that fancy or too simple, it was just enough to satisfy him. It was a black hoodie with the word SOL on it with cute writings. The sleeves were white stripes and it had a pouch on the front that also has stripes. To top it all off there were pink paint splashes on the front and some on the back. Gamzee would have been mad if it had no other color, so this design would satisfy the both of them. He then lays his head down on his desk, like what he usually does on a daily basis. As he was about to take a nap he thought about Jade again.

gI wonder how she is doing, I haven't visited her yeth Sollux mumbled.

He then got up from his desk and looks at the clock. He wasn't doing much, and since he's pretty much on break it was okay to go out somewhere just for a little while. He grabs his gray coat from his chair and locks his office. He walked to the front, and it's not like anyone was going to see him anyway, he wasn't geye catchingh as Gamzee says. He calls a taxi and tells the driver to go to Jade's place. It wasn't that far of a drive, ten minutes at most. He then reaches her apartment building and gets inside. He still has the keys from a few days ago and goes up the elevator. He looks for room 221 and finds it. He puts in the keys and enters in quietly.

gI'm such a creeper for doing this. Who in their right mind enters in a sick girl's home after meeting them a few days agoh Sollux thought to himself.

He closes the door quietly and enters in. Everything was pretty much the same. It looked like someone came here before since there's food on the dining table. He goes to Jade's room and enters in. It was pretty much the same last time he came here. She was sleeping just like last time. He came closer and checks her temperature.

gIt has gotten betterh he smiled.

He grabs a nearby chair and watches her sleep. He then also falls asleep, while he was sitting on the chair. After a few hours past by Jade begins to flicker her eyes open. She then sees a familiar figure. He was a troll with two horns on each side of his head. He wore black and gray but what standed out the most was his 3-D glasses. Then her eyes widen and her face turned red.

gWhat is he doing here?!h Jade thought to herself.

She slowly gets up from her bed and came closer to Sollux. She waves her hand right in front of him to see if her was awake in any way.

gHe's sound asleeph she whispered.

She made a smile and puts a blanket around him. She went outside to her living room and into the dining room and finds food at the table.

gAww John you didn't have to make this for me. You worry about me too muchh Jade talked to herself.

She sat down and ate the food John ate for her. It wasn't much, but it warmed her stomach. It was chicken soup, and it was basically good for people who are sick. She then finishes eating it and puts it in the sink.
gI'll wash it later, I need to do something firsth she talked to herself some more.

She went to her room and goes to her laundry basket. She picks up the jacket Sollux gave her to wear from a few days ago. She takes it and goes outside to her balcony. She puts the jacket on the railing first and then goes back inside. Under her kitchen sink she gets a big blue tub and fills it with water. She then gets soap, that was meant for fabric, and puts it in the water. She then carefully carries the tub outside to the balcony and puts it down. Before she can start doing anything, she goes back to the living and grabs a stool and puts in down a foot away from the tub. She then grabs Sollux's jacket and puts it in the tub and washes it thoroughly.

gSince I was sick for so long, I forgot to wash thish Jade thought.

She keeps on washing it until all the stains came out from the cake. Since she also had wine poured on her, she made sure the jacket wasn't sticky either.

gSollux did so much for me, I could at least wash his jacket for him and give it back when he wakes uph Jade told herself.

She then finishes washing the jacket and clips it to a clothesline she had on the balcony. She wanted to let it air dry naturally since putting in the dryer would be such a hassle.

gAchoo!h Jade sneezed.

She then rubs her nose, gUgh, I can't get anymore worse, that would be terribleh.

She then goes back to her bed and stares at Sollux. She stared at him for a pretty long time actually, and soon she got impatient. Out of impulse she threw a small pillow at his face, but it didn't work. He was still sleeping. So Jade got up from her bed and goes up to him. She then carefully takes his 3-D glasses from his face and puts them on and pretends to be Sollux for a moment.

gI AM SOLLUX CAPTOR!h she said aloud.

She covers her mouth. She probably said it so loud that it woke Sollux up. She takes a glance at Sollux and he wasn't awake. He just moved a bit.

gPhew!h Jade let out a relieving sigh.

Since Sollux moved a bit he almost fell, but just in a nick of rime Jade catches him and carefully puts him back to a normal sleeping position (for a chair).

gAradia..h Sollux mumbled in his sleep,

gAradia?h Jade accidentally said it out loud and she was right near him.

Sollux heard the voice and moved his troll ears. His eyes were opening slowly and then he sees Jade helping him up, and she was also wearing his glasses.

gGood evening!h Jade nervously chuckled.

He looks and her and then touches his face. He didn't have his 3-D glasses on. He blushes and quickly takes them from Jade and puts them back on.

Jade laughed, gWhy do you need your glasses so bad?h.

Sollux pouted, gBecause I hate my eyesh.

Jade titled her head and made a small giggle, gWell I think your eyes are beautiful are unique, you rarely see trolls with different colors eyes!h.

Sollux looks at her and turned red a bit, gYou are the second person who has ever told me thath.

gReally?! Who was the first?h Jade asked out of curiosity.

Sollux didn't say anything afterwards. Jade understood the situation so she didn't say anything either. After a few minutes of awkward silence they began a conversation that lasted for hours. It was like having a normal guy best friend, it was that type of person you just can't fall in love with because they were like your brother Jade thought. It was late at night and Sollux had to leave so they had to say their goodbyes. Before saying farewell, Jade went out to her balcony and gets Sollux's jacket. She runs back and hands it to him.

gHere!h Jade hands it to him.

Sollux looks at the jacket, gWhat?h

gWhat do you mean what? This jacket is yoursh Jade said.

He looks at it again and then looks at her, gI don't want ith.

gWhy?h Jade questioned.

gBecause it's my gift to youh he made a small smile.

gReally?! Oh uh, thank you Sollux!h Jade bowed down.

gHaha, there's no reason to bow down to a friendh, he pets her on the head, gGood nighth, he then leaves Jade's apartment.

Jade made a goofy smile after he left. She holds onto the jacket and smelled the scent. She then goes back to her room and hangs the jacket up nicely in her closet. She then goes back to her bed and looks up at the ceiling some more. She then made a huge smile and went to sleep.

As Sollux was in the taxi he totally forgot about the time. He took too long of a break and he knows Gamzee is going to call him any minute now. He then hears a call from Gamzee.

gWHERE WERE YOU TODAY?!h Gamzee shouted through the phone.

gAt someone's placeh Sollux blankly replied.

gYOU MOTHER FUCKER! COME BACK TO WORK BEFORE I POUR FAYGO ALL OVER YOUR WORK!h Gamzee shouted some more.

He just did not say that. It's one thing if Gamzee yells at Sollux but it is a whole different story if he pours some sort of drink on his hard precious work.

gIf you pour your freaking faygo all over my designs, I'm going to rip up all your tuxedosh Sollux cursed.

The two argued into the night, the taxi driver ended up hearing all of it, he wasn't amused at all. A week later Jade finally felt better from her fever. She puts on her long sleeve shirt and a blue dress over it. She wore black leggings and bright blue converse. She didn't have her hair up, since she got used to her hair being down for so long. She then grabs her bag and locks her apartment and leaves for Rose's work. She takes the subway to Brooklyn and it took another twenty-five minute wait. She walks up to the L.O.V.E.U sign and then walks on the silver pathway that leads to Karkat's building.

gUgh, I don't wanna see his faceh Jade mumbled.

She goes inside the building and was greeted by workers all around. It was different not having her around for work, she had such a happy atmosphere. Jade smiled and greeted back to them.

gGood morning everyone!h she happily shouted out.

She then goes up the elevator to Rose's office. She knocks and then comes in and sees Rose working as usual. She looks at Rose and then Rose looked back at her.

Jade bowed down, gI'm so sorry for the inconvenience! I didn't mean to get sick so I'm sorry if I bothered you with work! I'll make it up the best I can!h.

Rose got up from her desk and runs to Jade. She gave Jade a big warm hug. Jade ended up dropping her bag and it left her dumbfounded.

gDon't make me worry like that again!h Rose told Jade.

Jade didn't know what to do so she hugged Rose back. It felt so warm, like a family hug. It made Jade smile.

gI'm back Roseh Jade whispered.

After their small, tearful reunion, Jade went back and work for Rose a bit more. Jade organized the cabinets again and Rose's designs.

gRose isn't so organized when I'm not aroundh Jade thought.

As Jade was organizing the cabinets Rose spoke to her, gJade can you go get me some coffee, it's around the hallwayh.

Jade nodded her head and went out. She looked around the hallway to see if there was any coffee machine. After a few walks she finally found the coffee machine. She puts in coffee in the coffee maker and waits for it to be done. After a few minutes she heard footsteps.

gAw Rose you don't have to come, your coffee is almost doneh Jade laughed.

There was no reply so Jade turned around and saw something she didn't want to see, Karkat. It was him alright. He was wearing the same suit he wore a few weeks ago and he looked worry. Jade didn't care much for him anymore, and she wanted to tell him that.

He came up to her and grabs her hands, gJade! Welcome back!h.

Jade gave a disgusted look, she didn't know what to say to this troll. It sucked that he is also her boss, since she is working for Rose right now.

He closes his eyes, gI'm so sorry! I didn't mean to say those awful words to you. It was an accident.. I didn't mean it at all. I was uh- stupid, I didn't know what to do.. Please forgive me!h

Jade snapped and took her hands away from Karkat, gI'm sorry Karkath.

gWha?h he looks at her.

Jade looks back at him, gTo tell you honestly, I don't give a shit about you anymore. You hurted me and I got sick and I'm still hurt now, but it's not worth being hurt by you.

gWhy?h Karkat didn't know what to say properly.

gBecause you are a pile of bullshit, good day!h Jade shouted.

She quickly grabs the coffee and walks to Rose's office before Karkat can catch up. He was left dumbfounded and felt stupid while at it.
