SOLDAVE ROLEPLAY

▲: (Human/college!stuck) Sollux sat in his dorm room. His roommate was out after curfew, having him worried sick. He was his roomates best friend, sure they had quarrels, but they cared about each other. Sollux kept texting his roommate, telling to 'hurry the fuck up'. He sat in his pajamas, a black shirt with his yellow flannel bottoms. His auburn hair was slightly messy looking, from running his hands through his hair. His dual colored eyes, one blue one green, were tired, his glasses sat on the coffee table. Where is his stupid roommate!

▼: Dave stumbled into his dorm room to find his dorm mate pacing the apartment worriedly. "Sup. I'm going to bed a'ight" He said his texan drawl slipping into his voice. Dave was exhausted an didn't want to explain why his clothes were ripped and covered in mud. He walked into his room and hopped into the shower. Five minutes later he was in bed about to turn off the light when he was interrupted by a very upset Sollux

▲: "dude where the fuck have you been and what the hell happened to you!? do you even know what time it i'th, you had me worried th'ick!", solluxs speach impetiment slipped into his voice because of his worry. He would hide it but he was worried about dave for the moment so he didn't give a damn that he lisped. Sollux crossed his arms over his chest, waiting for answers.

▼: Groaning Dave looked up at Sollux and decided to give him a straight answer. His head was pounding and the painkillers were taking forever to kick in. "You want to know what happened to me? Fine. I'll tell you. I was jumped on my way back here from the library and had to defend myself. Now fuck off and let me sleep please. I just want to forget all about this."

▲: "holy shit dude", sollux's eyes widened with shock, "man are you ok", his voice was full of pure concern and sorrow. Sollux sat at the edge of daves bed, "..did they hurt you" His voice turned soft. He was really worried about Dave, he looked him over seeing scratches and bruises. This couldn't have happened, i mean Dave had mad fighting skills.

▼: "Dude I'm fine, just a couple of scratches. Made sure to give all of them a black eye and a good punch to the stmach." Dave wheezed out; he was feeling light headed and got up to flashstep to the bathroom. Retching could be heard as well as a quiet string of curses. Dave fumbled around for the first aid kit and quickly bandaged up his bleeding arm. Apparently not quickly enough because when he looked up he found Sollux staring wide eyed at him. He had seen the shallow cuts, as well as the one deeper one on his arm. "Fuck" he said. "I'm fine. I just need some sleep that's all" He stumbled to his bed and collapsed, gasping from the pain, his face twitching slightly and threatening to break the poker face he'd mastered over the years

▲: "no you aren't...come here", Sollux helped him sit up and started to bandage his arm properly. He got him a glass of water to sip on as he began to work on the other cuts. Thank god he wanted to be a doctor and took the classes before he ditched the idea. Sollux cleaned the cuts and put a chilling cream on the bruises. He gave Dave a pill that helped ease nausia and muscle pain. Sollux took Daves face in his hands and examined the black eye he was getting. He saw a small tear roll down Daves cheek, he wiped it with his thumb, "it'th ok to cry if you want, we have known each other for year'th...and i won't mention it ever again."

▼: Dave stayed silent while Sollux treated him, he felt naked without his signature sunglasses and his face burned in shame. There were too many of them for him to take and they had honestly surprised him. All five of them had come at him and he couldn't fight them off. He was in so much pain, but thanked God Sollux was taking Med classes. The tears leaked out of his eyes and soon he was loosing his cool, it started with the shaking and then the tears flowed faster and soon enough he had broken down. He kept gasping for air and choking on his own tears, strangled sobs escaping his throat. He cried until the whites of his eyes matched his fiery red pupils. He hung his head in shame. Striders never cried. His Bro had taught him that. And he had let him down. But the worst part was when he almost got raped. That part would haunt him forever and he would never tell a soul. Not yet at least. Maybe he'd tell his bro John. Yeah, he'd do that when he was ready. But for now he was content crying in Sollux's arms like the pathetic guy he was. And that was how he he'd fallen sleep. That's when the nightmares began and he started talking in his sleep.

▲: Sollux began to drift off with Dave still in his arms, but became alert when he heard speaking. It was Dave. Sollux sighed and rubbed his back soothingly. Suddenly Dave clung closer to sollux, muttering things like, "don't touch me", "i dont like that" and, "get the fuck off me". He felt tears leaking through his shirt again. Sollux got worried all over again, "dave, dave, wake up are you ok", a screamed ripped through the quiet as Dave woke up. He was quaking with fear. Sollux held him closer and looked into his eyes, "..dave...what else did they do to you"

▼: He was reliving it all over again. He wondered what he did to deserve this. They came at him, and he began to walk away. The scene flash forwarded to him screaming and waking up. He was still disoriented and scrambled out of Sollux's arms. It took him a moment to realize he was dreaming and he went still. His eyes fell downcast and he whispered, "They tried to rape me." He was so ashamed, and disgusting, He was disgusted with himself and felt unworthy of anything. He felt dirty, He cuddled up on his bed and held his knees to his chest, wishing it would all go away, refusing to look at Solux

▲: Sollux froze for a moment...rape. He suddenly had Dave in a tight embrace, sure not to hurt him. Holy fuck how could that happen to his dave! wait...his dave....oh shut up mind. Sollux held him close, not saying a word, none were needed as he displayed his sorrow, worry and concern with his eyes and the way he held dave. He seemed so delicate in solluxs arms now. No wonder dave was terrified."Those assholes...whoever they are....they are going to pay", sollux reassured dave that he would hunt down those disgusting excuses for humans and put their asses in jail.

▼: Dave's eyes filled up again with tears. Fuck! You need to stop crying dude. Striders don't cry. He said to himself. But he was so tired and Sollux was so warm. He snuggled into his warmth and hugged him as thanks. He quickly felt his eyes droop and his tears dry up. His heartbeat evened out and he drifted off in Sollux's arms. He slept the whole night and was thankful he had all of the weekend and spring break to figure his shit out. And also to figure out why he kept snuggling closer to Sollux and his warmth. Maybe I'm-. No! His prevented himself from finishing that thought. he was simply scared and he needed someone to hug, Oh Fuck it he thought to himself. He could figure this shit out tomorrow. He sighed contentedly in Sollux's embrace feeling protected and safe and drifted off into a dreamless sleep.

▲: Sollux, finally drifted into a stressed sleep. He held dave close, keeping him safe. The slept in eachothers embrace. Sollux woke up the next day, only tightening his grip around dave.

▼: Dave woke up the next day to find himself wrapped tightly in Sollux's embrace. He quickly slipped out of bed and hopped into the shower. He thought about what he was going to do now. He could just pretend it didn't happen. Yeah that sounded like a good plan. But first he'd have to tell John, Bro, and his sister Rose what happened. Stepping out of the shower he got dressed and decided to make them some breakfast. He felt really bad for making Sollux worried and for keeping him up all night with his hysterics. He was sitting in the kitchen just serving up breakfast when he heard a shift from his bedroom with his super trained ninja hearing. He finished plating it up and flashstepped his way into the room. A small smirked found its way up to Dave's lips as he realized the irony behind making breakfast. He watched Sollux as he slowly woke up.

▲: He yawned and smelled something good. He rubbed his eyes open to find Dave holding two plates of eggs, toast and bacon. Sollux got out of the bed, he grabbed the plate and without thinking he kissed him on the cheek. Boy...was he tired, he played it off when he rubbed his eyes again, "good morning". Sollux moved back to his own bed to eat his breakfast.

▼: Dave stood there, shell-shocked and speechless. He simply played it off as tiredness and said nothing about the faint blush that was on his cheeks. What blush? Exactly. He ate his breakfast in silence as he thought about how he felt about Sollux at the moment. He was glad for his poker face. It gave nothing away and allowed him to think on whatever. His eyes on the other hand, were a freaking open book to be read by anyone. He pushed his blonde bangs out of his shades and took a sip of his apple juice.

▲: Sollux looked up at dave,as sollux was licking juice from his lips, and smiled. Dave had his shades and his pokerface on. Which meant he was probably full of emotion, so sollux said nothing. He finished up his plate before he set it on the nightstand. He stretched and looked through his closet, and grabbed clothes. He took off his shirt and his pajama pants, leaving on his boxers to head to the shower like he did every morning.

▼: Dave's eyes nearly popped out of his sockets, he was definitely crushing on Sollux if not more... He needed to think about all of this. Eyeing his phone, he called up rose. She knew him best and would know what to do. He chatted with her and eventually came around to telling her when she called him out, asking him what was wrong, She stayed quiet for a long time and suddenly there was a crash in the background. Shit. He thought. She was angry. She told him she was coming over and bringing John. Double shit. John was gonna flip. Oh well he thought. Might as well get it over with. He called out to Sollux that they were coming over and moved over to pick up the plates. Maybe his ironic housewife routine would cheer him up a bit, he thought as he cleaned up the dishes and made his usually messy bed

▲: Sollux stepped out of the bathroom,clothed but his hair still wet, "ok they can come over", He saw that dave had put up the dishes and made his bed, he smiled slightly. Dave was cleaning the counter, heh he was cute when he played housewife, wait what sollux shhhh stop. He couldn't help himself as he put his arms around daves waist, sols chest to daves back, "you sure you want people to come over though?", sollux was again covering his random embrace like he was comforting dave again.

▼: "Yeah, they should know anyways." Replied Dave, his voice jumping up an octave. He leaned slightly into Sols embrace finally accepting the fact that he had a homo crush on his friend. He also knew his friend was crushing on him too. He was picking up on the subtle hints he was dropping and he was okay with that. He trusted Sol and knew he would protect him. That though made him smile. A real one that broke through his mask and showed on his face as a small smile Sol could see. He chuckled lightly to himself and decided to give him some time to come out like he knew he would. He just had to wait.

▲: "mmm you should smile more often", sollux rested his chin on daves shoulder. Alright captor admit it...admit what...you like him....fine i do. Sollux gently kissed below daves ear, repeating what he said in an entirely different way, "you sure you want people over?", this time his voice was deep yet gentle.

▼: A shudder ran through Dave, electricity running across him as he leaned into Sollux's warm touch. He found himself wanting more of it and turned himself around to face Sol

▼: "Do you... do you like me Sol?" came Dave's question as he looked at Sol through his Aviator shades

▲: Sollux smiled and kissed daves lips gently and pulled away to answer, "yes i do strider"

▼: A full out blush came over his cheeks as he leaned to kiss him back
