Sapnap rested his face on his hand, his elbow on his desk as he looked over the video he had started editing about
twenty minutes ago, he was nearly a quarter of the way through, cutting out parts, cropping bits, adding some captions
when necessary, it was tedious but he couldn't ask Dream to do it again for him since he was on a date with George.

Sapnap felt a little bad, Karl had come over for a week or two to hang out with him, and he was cooped up in his
office, editing a video he had put off for a while now. He wanted so desperately to go downstairs and hang out with
the brunette madly, but he needed to get this out today, so he woke up quite early to get started. Not like him at all
by the way.

He decided to entertain himself while he did so, grabbing his headphones from his desk, and putting them into his
ears, scrolling through the playlists him and Karl had made together when they were talking long distance. He
listened to Karl's favorite songs, some his as well, he always felt so much more whole when he listened to the boys
voice, or even just watching, doing, or listening to anything Karl loved to do.

He edited the video listening to all sorts of great artists, occasionally looking out the window next to his tv, the
curtains blocking the wet, morning outside. It had rained the night before, making the plants have a nice morning
dew along them, and the street outside be a slight bit darker from the water which poured in the night prior.

He felt a tap on his shoulder, pulling out one of his ear phones to see Karl looking down at him, one hand behind
himself as his right tapped Sapnaps shoulder, the boy looked embarrassed, maybe even nervous.

"Hey KitKat, do you need anything?" Sapnap asked, the nickname KitKat just kind of happened. Sapnap remembered
being in a call with Karl for the first time, Sapnap loved making little nicknames for his friends, he had like eight
for Dream and ten for George, nearly thirteen for Karl though. His name was just so flexible and nice for Sapnap
to manipulate and play with.

Karl's cheeks blushed a little, "um.. I need some help with something.. embarrassing.." he said, looking away.

Sapnap sighed, "did you like, piss the bed?" He asked, Karl's face flushing up more.

"No!" He exclaimed.

"Std?"

"What! No Sapnap! What is wrong with y-"

"Did you mistake Dreams toothbrush for your own as well? I swear, they look similar huh?" Sapnap chuckled.

Karl rolled his eyes, "oh my god, can I speak?" Karl laughed.

Sapnap sighed, and turned the chair so he was facing Karl. He folded his arms and looked up, pulling out both his
earbuds, "alright, I'm intrigued, go on" he said, raising an eyebrow.

Karl shifted on his feet, looking away, "okay.. well" he said, playing with his hands "I used to live in a poor family you
know that right?" Sapnap nodded, "well.. I used to have some friends in middle school who could afford a bike, like ones
with cool stickers and colors" Karl looked away, blushing slightly.

"Do you need a bike? Or friends?" Sapnap asked, earning a bonk on the head by Karl, "fine, fine, go on" he chuckled.

"Well.. I could never get a bike.. and my friends would ride around on their bikes and I felt kind of alone.." he said, looking
down, "I bought a bike a few years ago though, before I first came here to visit you guys" Karl said, Sapnap nodding, waiting
for Karl to get to the point, "well.." he breathed in, "I don't know how to ride it.. and I was hoping that um.." he said,
looking away, "you would teach me.." he mumbled, loud enough for the raven to hear.

Sapnap smirked, "you don't know how to ride a bike?" He asked, Karl was ready for the laughter. Instead, he heard
a small sigh. He looked up, Sapnap saving the progress he had done, and closing the editing tab. "Alright, let's go"
He said, standing up.
