Roadside 'assistance' (karlity) ♻️ 2

Quackity had stopped smiling too,he looked over at Karl,instantly knowing what was on his mind.
Quackity:"don't."
Quackity shook his head and sighed,Karl felt like crying.
He looked so exhausted.
Quackity:"just...don't say it,Karl.."
Karl:"but I really want to..."
Quackity:"we don't have to talk about it,it's in the past,bringing it up is just gonna make shit awkward"
Karl sat up and shrugged.

He'd suppress it for now,he really didn't want this to end,they had a good thing going and it was too precious to ruin.
Karl leaned over to the touch screen of his car and searched a song.
Quackity:"what are you doing?"
Karl played it.

Karl:"IM WALKIN ON SUNSHINE WHOAAA OOOOOO!"
Quackity:"that part isn't even on yet?!"
Karl gripped the dashboard as he loudly sang the sun song.
Quackity groaned and rolled down the window,trying to get the wind to tune him out,
It did not work.
He had to deal with Karl's impulse singing until he eventually joined him.
It went on for most of the car ride until they got to the shop.
Karl looked out the window,admiring how little his hometown has changed.

He didn't know what he expected,it's only been a year.
It was a sunny day,but the shade came in
As soon as Quackity pulled into the workshop.
Karl got out of the car while
Quackity Parked his and Karl's car,Karl's being on a working station.
Karl looked around,it was dark,and colder in this open room.
Quackity wrapped his blue uniform jacket around his waist and tied it after grabbing his tool box,Karl just continued to stare at his toned arms while standing there,not sure what to do.

Quackity:"you know,funny enough,it was kinda my off day today"
Karl:"really? Why'd you answer the call then?"
Quackity shrugged as he got a rolling chair and wheeled it infront of his trunk before opening it.
He sat down and started to get to work,doing whatever it was that he was doing..
Quackity:"uhhh,you know..I was picking up my beanie that I forgot in my office and heard the phone ring,so...."
Karl:"wait,office?"
Karl said excitedly.

Quackity shrugged and smiled to himself.
Karl:"you have an office,did you get promoted?!"
Quackity:"maybe.."
Karl clapped as he jumped up and down with a big smile.
Karl:"good job! I'm so proud of you,I had no idea!"
Quackity shrugged,trying to wipe that smile of off his face from finally getting validation from Karl again,but it didn't work.
Quackity:"yeah....I-it's alright"

Karl crossed his arms and leaned on the car behind him.
Karl:"well no need to be humble,it's just me.."
Quackity shrugged,a bit flustered from all this.
Karl admired him,his smile slowly turning into a smirk.
He wanted to stop himself,but he couldn't.
His beanie was off and half of his hair was tied back,wich he didn't even have time to think about since he was still feeling guilty for the way things ended??
He looked around.
Karl:"shouldn't the doors be closed if,you know...your closed?"
Quackity looked around before looking at Karl.

Karl said it in a regular tone,acting like he didn't know what he was doing,like it was just a suggestion or an observation.
Like he wasn't basically asking Quackity to close and lock the doors.
Quackity stared him down for a few seconds,
His fake-oblivious expression as he shrugged.
Quackity was puzzled,was he trying to get with me or is he just....thinking out loud?
Quackity scoffed with a lightly suspicious squint before he stood up.
Quackity:"yeah,guess your right.."

He walked over to the big opening and clicked the button to make the giant Jalousie come down before walking over to the back entrance to close only one of the two doors.
Now it was darker,colder,all other than the one door bringing in that one line of sunshine from the sunny outside world.
Karl smiled at him,tilting his head.
Quackity scoffed and sat back down.
Quackity:"satisfied?"
Karl paused for a second before answering.
Karl:"uh huh.."

Quackity wanted to look at him,but he didn't,
He just laughed to himself as he continued to make the car better or something.
Quackity:"still can't believe you don't appreciate this car,it's a beauty...and it's red?! It's a red Cadillac! From the 90s,man?!"
Karl:"dude,stop getting horny for my car.."
Quackity laughed.
Quackity:"you just can't appreciate these free 15 grand man..."
Karl:"you know,if you want my car you can just say that?"
Quackity rolled his eyes.

Karl:"it's dumb anyways,it's red and basically a piece of shit that happens to have wheels.."
Quackity:"wow,you really hate this car..."
Karl shrugged.
Karl:"just making conversation since you seem..really interested in this car.."
Quackity looked at him.
Quackity:"I'm just making conversation,I mean...what else would we talk about?.."
Karl looked at him and tilted his head.
Quackity:"other than that.."
Karl shrugged.

Karl:"well then I'm not sure...what's been going on with you?"
Quackity:"promotion,school,broke my arm,
Weed,came out to my mom,got into a fight with my mom,reconciled with my mom,I think thats it?"
Karl:"wait,you came OUT?!"
Quackity nodded nonchalant.
Quackity:"yeah"
Karl:"wh- how did she react?!"
Quackity:"at First she was upset because I didn't tell her who I was seeing,but then she ended up being really happy cause i told her I was seeing you"

Karl:"she's right,I was a good boyfriend...
Well,up until-"
Quackity:"well anyways,she was upset again because I had to tell her we broke up,so...don't get too excited.."
Karl smiled apologetically,it was still flattering but...
There was silence.
Quackity looked at him.
Quackity:"sorry,that was petty of me..."
Karl shrugged.
Karl:"yeahhhh,I deserved that..."
Quackity scoffed.

Quackity:"you know..I'm glad your back.."
Karl looked at him,a smile slowly reappeared on his face.
Karl:"why's that?"
Quackity:"even though things kinda left off on a bad note,I still...fuck,I really don't wanna talk about this....I still missed you,you know I..
Always enjoy your company"
Always enjoy your company aka. Love you.
Karl smiled.
Karl:"I'm really-"
Quackity:"don't...I'm serious when I say we don't have to talk about it,it's in the past"

He said as he stood up and threw the oil stained towel over his shoulder.
He went over to Karl.
Karl immediately felt like he couldn't compete,in any way,that feeling was still there.
Whenever Quackity would stand so close,
slightly taller? Must've gotten new shoes.
Karl looked at him.
Karl:"Lex...I..."
Quackity didn't listen,instead he fidgeted with Karl's white collar.
Quackity:"is that the shirt you wore when you left?"
