Authors notes: I hope I didn't cram too much into one chapter, I got so carried away and overly passionate about them. It heated up fast, gah. See, Karma cares already, not personally but from his past. All has been revealed to why they act certain ways! Soon, comes another twist.

I hope you like the emotions in this one and it didn't turn to OCish. ;w;
I just love to show and express different emotions in characters. I haven't written like this in awhile so please mention if I should add/leave something out.
Thank you for the support on this one! I wasn't expecting it at all. 3


Once he returned, the class went quicker than Nagisa expected, luckily a girl from another group joined them so they were able to race through it. Asano was well behaved due to the girl with them, although it was times like this Nagisa wondered why the Strawberry blonde chose him. He always had to sit back and watch loads of girls fawning over him.

He didn't really mind as Asano always drew his attention back to him... But the anxiety he had did cause him to hurt.

As the bluenette wasn't paying attention, his mind wandered back to how Asano confessed and how he was oblivious to it. Now thinking about it, there were multiple warnings to tell him what was happening…


Flashback:

Asano had walked Nagisa back to his home after school, it was that time of year when it was getting darker after school and he didn't want to be clouded with worry for the boy.

They were discussing their ideas about art. Nagisa wanted to paint and draw still life- possibly his best friend and represent their friendship in it. The bluenette was getting flustered over it as he started to feel passionate about the subject, being emotional like the boy was the subject was able to convey his emotions well.

Asano let out a small hint without realising it… He was always careful and mindful so Nagisa felt comfortable. "Well if I was in your class, I would happily let you draw me.." Maybe it was the blush that did it, but he ruffled the boys tied up locks, noticing how soft they were and he smiled.

"B-but I couldn't possibly draw you... Your bone structure is difficult how it is!" If that was that wasn't a compliment, I don't know what is. Nagisa realised what he said and was about to change what he was going to say, but he was too flustered.

Asano chuckled and sent a wink at the boy, usually, their conversations had a hint like this, seeing as they had both had secret feelings for each other. Nagisa being dense about love didn't know any of this, whereas Asano being more observing knew everything.

Asano didn't drop the subject and mused "Well I'm glad out of all of the students, you would think that~" He chuckled and noticed they were a block from Nagisa's home. He didn't want this end, sure they had Monday to hang out again at lunch but that wasn't enough...

The Strawberry blonde took the bluenette's hand to pulling him to as top. He started by kissing his hand "Nagisa-kun.." The boy whispered.

If the night wasn't quiet, he wouldn't have heard the small 'eep' from the small male. "Uhm... Y'know.. Y-you don't have to use politeness in my name.." came the grumble from him.

Asano smiled knowing what he should do.. "Then if I don't have to, would you do the best thing and become my boyfriend...?" They were both blushing at this and the small male didn't know what to say. He was dumbfounded, he was about to reply but the elder responded too quickly.

"If you don't know to respond, can I please try something?' Asano was gentle in how his spoke and Nagisa felt his heart nearly jump out his chest at the request... What's the worse thing that could happen? After all, he did trust him.

Not speaking, he nodded and closed his eyes at his response. Asano made the move that gave Nagisa the realisation as well. He felt hands go on his hips and their distance was closed. Nagisa opened his eyes at that point watching half lidded purple ones reaching his height. "Nagisa.." he breathed before lips were gently on his own. He kissed him so softly, but the boy wanted more. Asano shocked at the reaction more than obeyed and continued the kiss into a deeper one.


"Nagisa, darling" A voice suddenly called, giving the boy a poke. "Hey, sleepyhead, it's time to go!" Nagisa jolted his head up, he didn't even realise the daydream had turned into a nap. He looked very dazed at his lover beside him and then around the classroom. Everyone had already started to get up and go, they were nearly alone in the room.

"Huh... Did I fall asleep? Oops!" He muttered to himself, wiping his face to get rid of the sleepiness that was very obvious.

He heard Asano laugh "But I didn't want to wake my cutie, you muttered my name so sweetly!" and Nagisa gave the boy a light punch in response. "Hey, that isn't funny!"
He scurried to get his supplies together into his bag and looked at Asano who was just staring sweetly at him.

"So what was it about?" The strawberry blonde cooed and saw Nagisa flush, but unfortunately, he noticed how fast he was ready to go and he didn't have a chance to admire any longer. He frowned at that and thought he just didn't have enough time with the bluenette.

"Hey, now. Why the rush? I just asked you a question." As Nagisa was about to get up and go to his mothers, away from the fight that was going to happen and well, he knew if he was late home he would be in hell from his mother. Something was up with her recently and he didn't want to test it any further. But the tone of Asano's voice sent tingles wrongly up his spine.

Not now... Please, not now Asano. His insides started to scream at him but thinking it was his anxiety plaguing him again he didn't want to speak up.

"Well, ha, it was the first time we kissed, and how romantic that was!" Nagisa put up a front, but only for it to be cracked into. "My mo-" He started but only to be interrupted...
"Was? But we are still romantic" That harsh tone came back that the boy didn't want to hear, Nagisa didn't even look into the boy's eyes as he knew what he would see, the same eyes his father wears. His father was a very well-known and famous martial arts coach, so no wonder why it could be terrifying.

It was at this moment, the chocolate and teddies were changed into blood and menace. Asano had never laid a finger on Nagisa, but if that could change, it would for the worse.

The strawberry blonde took the bluenette's hand to kiss it to make Nagisa feel at ease around him, but his body flinched, even if it was slightly. Asano didn't like this, he wanted to control Nagisa's every move and every bit he knew he could help him with. He wanted to perfect the boy like he was himself and show he could help him. But the control was never this bad, so much for his eyes to twitch at the smaller boy.

"I love you" Asano whispered down Nagisa's ear, cooing at him back to where he liked him. As he realised no response. Asano felt a flicker of red in his head like the pent up anger had exploded. If anything it was like he blacked out for a second and he did not control the anger that had come out.


Nagisa's POV

It hurt, it hurt a lot. It wasn't just the menacing love bite that I felt but smack on my head as if Asano was disciplining me. But like as if he was my mother, I knew I had to grin and bear it. I knew if I said 'I love you' it may clear the air, but I couldn't even move my mouth.

"See, you're worthless"

The pain was coming from two different places, the blood trickling down my neck and the dazed feeling from the smack. I felt my eye tearing up, out of everyone but why you...

"He wants the best for you, and he loves you"

"I…" But I was silenced by a crash of lips into mine.

"If you say something, he may leave you and stop tutoring you. Imagine your parent's faces if they saw you failing."

Although it was the wrong timing and best timing, someone came through the door, I couldn't see who it was because the tears in my eyes were blurring my vision. I hadn't even noticed I started crying harshly and without a doubt, that person had pulled my love away from me.
I felt the anxiety so much worse when I saw who was, and what was happening. I hate conflict, please everyone leave me alone…

"So pitiful Karma, who hates you has to rescue you... isn't it?"

As I watched the fight that was about to be set off, I ran out the door with my belongings. I nearly fell to my knees as I tried to catch my breath and slow my heart rate. But I couldn't fall, I must pressure myself on.

I must be the man, that I know I am. If anyone saw otherwise I would be the girl I'm forced to be...

I have to get home. What if mum's back before me? What if she's not okay? Am I going to fail her like my lover? Am I going to disappoint everyone? Are they going to leave me?

As I continued to drag my feet as far as I could, I had to stop..
Though I had the stamina to take 10 minutes to get home, I couldn't deal with the emotions running through my head. Everything in the last few moments had become a blur and I felt my heart racing, nearly causing myself to have another panic attack.

But I knew I had to be strong, I couldn't show my mother this. I decided to take a few shortcuts over fences, at least this seemed to calm down the tears streaming from my eyes.

I continued to count: deep breathe through the nose, one two, deep breathe out of the mouth, one two.
Once I eventually arrived, I felt I could walk again and stride along with a happy smile to greet my mum.

I came up to my house and I notice the police car outside it…


Karma's POV

"What the fuck is taking that bastard so long" I mutter as I watch the students leave, I although notice the girls in that maths class come out and I run up beside them, giving my hair a slick back in an 'attractive' manner.

"Yo' girls, have you seen the whereabouts on chibi and his lover?" I deepened my voice to get the information I needed and watch the love in their responses, happy to assist me. Of course, I knew how to seep anything out of anyone. I could easily be seductive if the situation needed it.

"They're still in class, seemed they had business to do" One of them nearly squeed as she said it, and I nearly death-glared at that word. How fucking gross and ridiculous. As much as I should have walked away, I had a chance to beat someone up for a reason. A reason that couldn't get me expelled this time.

I grinned and winked "Thanks, girls~ remind me later if I owe you a favour" I teased, knowing full well they wouldn't ask for it and I watched them walk away with a blush.

I backtracked and went into the school again to get to that damn class. What a pussy shit. I better not walk in on some gross shit. Not like I was against two men, but I sure as hell didn't want two people I disliked at it.

I tched out loud, running past all the last few students out of the building. I did take the long route, however, to check all the teachers had gone home themselves, the last thing I needed was a teacher to track me down. But thankfully, it was the weekend tomorrow and I had a free room over a shit bag that deserved it.

I always did want to punch him square in his nose to hopefully break it. Man, that would be funny to see. To see blood again, sometimes I wondered if that was a bad thing to have in my mind... It wasn't normal...

However, I eventually came round the last corner with my grin ear to ear. I felt myself becoming more pumped up with each stride I took. The menace of violence shook over me, oh how I fucking loved adrenaline.

I was one classroom away from the door, and I heard noises from inside. It didn't sound pleasurable ones, maybe sobs and a low angered voice… What the fuck was happening?

I decided to peer through the window, noticing the wince of pain across chibi's face. There were tears, blood, and menace for the wrong reasons in Asano's eyes…. It somehow feared and angered me to see Nagisa so broken. He wasn't acting anymore... That was twice in one day...

I without realising went full force through the door, watching blood down Nagisa's neck and his hair being pulled viciously… That was his lover? I didn't have time to realise the anger that sadistically went through my veins, I went to pull Asano off the small twerp and give him a square off punch into his 'precious' face. I noticed at that moment, for some reason this wasn't Asano… And though, it wouldn't be a fair fight. I sure as hell didn't want to see someone like that cry again. I wanted to teach this guy a lesson for being a fucking idiot.

"What the fuck, you sicko?! I didn't realise you were into beating kids to make them love you" I watched Asano get more pissed off if that was possible.. and noticed the karate stance he took though he was shivering through anger.

My eyes darted quickly to meet a damaged pair of crystal blue eyes and the fear that shook over the boy. But without being able to say anything I heard footsteps rushing out the door.

"Out of all people, don't you dare, out of all of them, tell me how to teach my baby" Asano spat in which blood followed because I punched him hard enough. Rumours were true about me, I was a beast. I was the reason someone was nearly dead, and I could kill someone for the sake of it. But at least I wasn't going to end up like this asshole.

I grinned in response watching an eyebrow twitch and Asano came towards me, though this kid could be trained in karate I knew with that amount of anger he couldn't lay any moves properly. It was too bitter. I watched Asano come, blocking off attacks as I threw them and as he started his own, I was able to find openings easier.

The fight didn't last long compared to the ones I'm used to being in.

Eventually, when I saw enough blood from the stuck up assholes face, I knocked his balance off and took his hair from behind him so I could throw him to the ground so he was unable to strike.

"Y'know what I suggest to you, get some fucking help and leave that kid alone" I leaned over him as I watched him defenseless, I literally spat my words in front of his face "Get up now, and I promise, you won't be able to move" I meant every single word, and I watched Asano shiver in disgust and defeat.

The purple orbs weren't even looking at me anymore, so I took my bag and set off feeling mildly chilled and better about the subject... Not only had I let off some steam, but maybe I could pull that kid out of this mess.

Serves Asano right, I didn't want that shit to happen, not right underneath my nose. Though it wasn't for Nagisa, it was for my mother. What happened reflected too much on my past and how I was too young to understand why father beat us. Now able to protect her, I could stand and take the hits for her and possibly throw one back.

As I felt the smallest bit of reassurance walking out the school, I had jumped every step to reach the bottom...

I heard my phone go off in my bag, it was vibrating for a while… And I felt very confused, I took it out of my bag to see an unrecognisable number.

"Is this Akabane Karma? If so, this is the police"
"Yes this is Karma, why would you be calling me?" I was far too shocked, that much so I stopped in my tracks outside the school and I confusingly wondered why…

Did mother call them? Did the school get involved? Did someone else know what happened in our broken 'home'? Is mother in trouble?!

"Akabane Karma, hello? Hello? Are you still there?"
I was so busy in my thoughts and worry I forgot to listen to the rest of the call.

"Yes, sorry. I'm still here, I couldn't hear for a second"

I heard the police offer clear his throat as if he was nervous. "Well your mother called in emergency about your father, unfortunately, I'm sorry to say this but your family is under a lot of debt because of him and your mother is unable to keep your home. We've separated both your mother and father, so we've contacted your school to bunk you in the cabins. If you could reach your home in the next ten minutes I can explain and reassure you how this will work."

However, I felt my legs run on their own as soon as I heard mother getting involved with the police. I was proud but very scared for my mother and I was soon in tears myself. What if something happened when I wasn't there?

"Yes sir, I will be there as soon as I can." With that, I hung up and ran as fast as I could to get to the situation.
