This is set in a modern day/normal life au, during the summer between high school and college (for Kanda and Alma). This chapter is really short. Enjoy


"Hello? Is this Jim's whore house?"

"WHO THE FUCK IS THIS SHOW YOURSELF YOU SHITHOLE"

"Wait what? Oh god man you got double pranked I'm so sorry for you."

"WHAT THE SHIT IS GOING ON WHO THE HELL PUT YOU UP TO THIS?"

"Wait no look guy this is all a big misunderstanding! Someone put your number on a bathroom wall with 'Jim's whore house' written under it. My friend thought it would be funny to call and mess with whoever was on the other end."

"And who the hell is this friend?"

"What oh he's just a guy you don't know him. His name is Lavi. Please don't hurt-"

"LAAAAVIIIII!"

The guy on the other end slammed the phone down, and I heard Lavi gulp behind me. By the time I turned around he was halfway to the door. Some guy with a ponytail was ripping down the street on a motorcycle, heading straight toward Lavi. I watched in awe and horror as he swerved onto my lawn (my mom was gonna freak), lept off of his bike, tackled Lavi, and pressed a sword up to his neck. I stood awestruck for a moment, and then decided to take Lavi's panicked squealing as my sign to tackle the phone guy.

I threw myself at him with all of my weight, and jammed my shoulder into his side as we fell. We rolled across the lawn, and I somehow managed to get a hand on his sword. I threw it into the bushes, and pinned the strangers hands down on the lawn. We spent a few breathless seconds staring at each other, sizing each other up.

His shirt didn't leave much to the imagination. It was skin tight and sleeveless, so I could see in maybe a bit too much detail how muscular he was. I'm no wimp either, but it was still impressive. His hair was long and dark. His eyes glared even darker than his hair, but the rest of his face was pretty handsome. If I'm being honest, he was completely gorgeous (for a crazy person anyway).

I could have stayed like that for hours, with some beautiful stranger pinned down under me. Unfortunately he had other ideas. I let myself grin a little, and he took that as a sign to kick me in the gut and shove me off of him.

Both Lavi and I stared awestruck as he stormed back to his bike and grabbed the handles. He grunted something about coming back for his sword the next day without bothering to turn around. Then he swung a leg over the seat, revved the engine, and shot off back the way he had come.

After ensuring the stranger hadn't broken anything when he kicked me, I turned to Lavi and asked the obvious question. "Dude, who the hell was that?"

He winced and grinned. "That would be Kanda. He's my other, significantly less friendly best friend."

"One more thing Lavi."

"Yeah?"

"Are you the one who put Kanda's number in that bathroom?"

He flinched and grinned even wider. "yeah it was me, hence my recent near death experience."


My name is Alma Karma, and this is the story of how I met, loved, and lost my boyfriend.


Hi so author here, with some important stuff. From now on I plan on updating my fic every Monday, Thursday and Saturday. Each update day, one of my stories will get a new chapter. It'll probably always be the one that's gone the longest without updating, but it all depends. I know I'm terrible about keeping things updated, but I'll try to keep up now that I have an actual schedule for it. Maybe I'll *gasp* actually finish one of these someday. I also plan on posting updated and improved versions of the existing chapters I have up. Some of my stuff from last year is cringe worthy.

Reviews are very much appreciated, and as always, thank you for reading! :)
