(A/N: ok,ok I know I still need to update my other story and I am working on it (btw i talk WAY to much at the beginning but oh well) but Im just a bit stuck so give me a few more days. This was a request and considering how much I just loooove eridan (he's part of my top 3 favorite characters) i decided to make this. But I will be adding a few of my pre developed OCs including one named Jen (who is basically me) and a few others (maybe, i don't know yet) to help with stuffs. In this jen (aka me) Will be you're best friend and she is with sollux (cuz he's my faaaavorite!) and there isn't any hints to that except that they are seen together a lot so that is not important (i am such a fangirl) and also sorry if everyone seems OOC I haven't read homestuck in a while but I am so happy you guys like my fanfiction and sorry for talking so much ;-; but, but but! I'm making a twitter account that I will link you guys to later (i don't have a tumblr yet mostly out of laziness) so then you guys will know when I update stuff!(also this has the same screen name as last time: SK) ok? ok ^_^ so on that note TADA! THE FIRST CHAPTER OF MY SECOND FANFICTION EVER! (enjoy, my friend :D)
Today starts as any other other day. Ok let's go a little more into detail with this (due to your weird friend). Today started by you waking up to feeling pressure on your stomach and almost screaming. You opened your eyes to see your friend, Jen, sitting on your stomach staring back at you with her dark purple eyes and her fake cat ears on. She has a look of amusement on her face.
"Finally! I thought you were dead or something" She says in a bored tone.
"So you're first instinct is to sit on me?" You ask her very annoyed.
"well duuuuh! it's summer vacation, you're not supposed to waste it!" She says rolling her eyes.
"Says the girl who sits on people she thinks are dead" You say in the same tone as before. She sticks her tongue out at you and grabs your arm and pulling you onto the floor. you land with a thud.
"Hey!" You shout but she's already running away. You spring up and run down the hall way and grab her fake cat ears.
"how did you even get in here?" You ask
"you gave me your spare keys, remember?" She says innocently.
"Oh, yeah I forgot about that. But anyways, weren't we supposed to go to the mall today?" You ask her and she smiles.
"Yeah, why else would i be here?" she asks happily.
"Because Im your best friend?" You say raising an eyebrow. she seems to space out for a second before she just smiles. "Anyways, let me get ready" You say walking back to your room and changing into a random outfit with your favorite colors. you walk back out to Jen and she grabs her fake kitty ears from you.
"My nekomimi!" She whines.
"Your what?" You question as you both walk out the door.
"Kitty ears in Japonese!" She says happily. as you both get into her car. As to be expected when she turns the car on and puts a disk into the CD player it has Japanese music. This chick is obsessed with Jpop.
"Uh sorry, I don't have much else" She says as she pulls out of the driveway and drives towards the mall.
"Ah, I don't care. I'm used to it since we've been friends for a while." you shrug. You pull out your phone and see you have a text from Feferi, another good friend of yours and also one that you are meeting at the mall. You are also meeting sollux there, who you've known ever since elementary school. Feferi was talking about bringing a friend with her as well but you have no clue who it is since she refused to tell you. Either way you answer the text.

SK: FEF!
SK: NOOOOOO! .
You stop messaging Feferi and turn to Jen who is singing to the lyrics of the song that is on. you laugh at this sight and proceed to ignore everything until you arrive at the mall. You step out of Jen's car and walk inside with her to see your two friends and the mystery person. they were all sitting at a table in the restaurant you guys were meeting in. Sollux had his head down and seemed to be asleep until Jen poked him and he sat up. Feferi had a smile on her face and she was as cheerful as always and then there was…It's Eridan! Now it makes sense why Feferi wouldn't tell you. She knew you would chicken out and find an excuse not to come! Eridan has been your crush for a while and she knows that. She's been trying to get you to talk to him more since you can never bring yourself to do it on your own. He seems to be bored, he looks up when you walk towards you and you're instantly nervous. What if I do something stupid or say something stupid? Ugggh! this is such a disaster. You think to yourself nervously. and great, the only seat left is right next to Eridan. This is both something that you are happy about and you are nervous to death about. You sit down before you trip and look like an idiot (which probably wouldn't happen but you're still nervous about it) and you look at the center of the table.
"So, which store should we go to first?" Feferi asks with a happy tone.
"How about hot topic?" Jen suggests and even through your nervousness you automatically respond casually.
"No! I would rather not have to throw you over my shoulder to get you to leave. and after failing have to wait for security to kick you out." You say. your friends laugh and you smile shyly before being quiet again.
"why don't we just walk around until something interesting comes along?" Eridan asks
"Seems like we don't have any other option" Feferi says.
"But-" Jen starts but is cut off
"We're not going to Hot Topic until after we go to a few other stores." You say quickly.
"Ok, ok fine!" Jen sighs with an annoyed roll of her eyes. the five of you stand up and walk around the mall for a little while.
"Hey, there's a gamestop here. I want to check to see if they've got any games I want" You say after finally working up the courage to talk.
Yes, an excuse to go into a store finally! maybe this will calm me down a bit.
"Why don't Eridan and I go with you? We both kinda like games" Sollux says looking over to the game stop
fuck! He's gonna say no, right?
"Uh, yeah?" Eridan says with confusion in his voice.
Double fuck!
"while you do that, I guess Jen and I can get the Hot Topic mess out of the way" Feferi says, dragging Jen
"YEEEEEESSSSS!" Jen screams and attracts the attention of several people.
Screw logic. I give up!
"o-ok" You say trying to stop yourself from stuttering but obviously failing. You, Sollux, and Eridan walk into the store and look around. You immediately start looking at first person shooters and attempt to distract yourself. you see Fallout New Vegas and choose that since you've played the other games and this seems like fun. Either that or you could by Oblivion (the game before Skyrim in the Elder Scrolls games) But this one has guns and that one doesn't therefore this one wins. You walk over to the counter and buy the game. Sollux and Eridan walk over to you holding there items and buy theres as well.
"I'm going to go help Feferi drag Jen out of Hot Topic, you guys do whatever" Sollux says while walking away with a grin.
you asshole!
"Uuuuh" You sputter trying to think of something not idiotic to say.
"Do you want us to come with you?" Eridan asks
Of course he doesn't
"No, It's fine" Sollux says as he continues to walk. Well now you are left alone as a nervous wreck with your crush in a video game store. You're worried as fuck but hey, not much you can do about it now. You turn to Eridan who seems to be thinking about what to do now.
"What do you want to do?" You manage to say with very little stuttering. Eridan's face has a look of concentration as he thinks and you stand there hoping he won't hear your heart attempting to pound it's way out of your chest. ok there's no way he could, but come on right now you're struggling to keep calm.
"How about we check out the book store over there" Eridan says and points at the store.
"Uh, s-sure" You say and manage to put a a smile on your face. You both walk into the store and you look for some interesting books. you see (favorite book title) and you take it off the shelf and go to find Eridan who is looking at books about wizards and stuff like that. He seems to be distracted so you poke him to get his attention.
"Oh! hey, (your name)" He says, turning to you.
"Hi" You say with a small smile.
"You're done already? Did you already know what you wanted?" Eridan asks
"Not exactly, but I really wanted to read this book" You say surprisingly calmly.
"Hey, why don't we go look for the others?" Eridan asks as he pulls a book off the shelf and you both walk over to the front of the store to pay for your books.
"Yeah, that sounds like a good idea" You say, now completely calm, which is surprising for you but you don't question it. You walk out of the store together and first step into Hot Topic to see if they're in there. To your surprise they aren't. You start to wonder if they never actually went. Either way you both continue walking around and you get a little bit more relaxed as time goes on.
"Hey, there they are" You say pointing at Feferi and then seeing that she is talking with Jen and Sollux. You walk over to them and They smile. These three know about your crush, so you know they had to have done this on purpose.
