Nagisa woke up, slowly blinking his eyes and stretching his arms. He off his bed and made his way to the bathroom it was the weekend and he was going to have a nice date with Karma. Nagisa made his way into the shower and adjusted the temper to get it just warm enough, that it would loosen his muscles.

As the water hit his back he cleaned himself and thought 'I wonder what me and Karma will do today.' he let his mind wander and thought about them hanging out at the arcade, going to the movies , dining out at a nice restaurant, and then maybe ending the date with a really nice kiss.

A kiss the blue haired boy thought back to what Asano had done to him and he cleaned his lips six times over, he didn't want that memory tainting his mind, and ruining his day.

Nagisa did his hair up in his standard two pigtails, and put on a nice loosing fitting black shirt with a happy face smiling and tongue sticking out in with english letters spelling nirvana and coupled with gray pants.

He was out the door in a flash, he didn't want to see his mother criticising him over Karma again.

The blue haired boy had agreed to meet the redhead at the end of the street corner near his house.

Karma waved at Nagisa, as he sat on his motor bike. And the smaller boy ran towards him. He sat next to Karma on the bike and kissed his cheek. The redhead handed him a helmet and he put it on. They were going to the mall. Nagisa smiled to himself. The same mall that started their relationship.

Nagisa wasn't especially worried about being caught this time 'round they he wasn't crossdressing and they could hide the fact that they were on a date just by saying they were hanging out, all their bases were covered.

They were going to go to eat lunch at one of the new restaurants, opening in the mall and watch a cool foreign movie that had just come out in the theatres, it was your standard date.

But to Karma it was more than that, it was his chance to make Nagisa happy. The redhead noticed that his boyfriend had been feeling particularly blue these last couple of days and he wanted to make him feel better, pun intended.

He wanted to make Nagisa forget about the guy, whose face he'd break if he'd ever met him, that forced the blue haired boy to kiss him. When they arrived at the mall Nagisa seemed a little dizzy from all the driving and his legs wobbled after he'd gotten off the motorbike. Karma after parking his bike. Took Nagisa's hand and pulled him in close to steady the dizzy teen.

Nagisa now in Karma's arms took a deep breath and looked up at his boyfriend. Karma couldn't resist the sweet look his significant other was giving him and pressed his lips against the blue haired boy's for five seconds.

It's not that he didn't like the kiss it's just that they were still in the parking lot and people could probably see them so Nagisa broke away from the kiss, a lot sooner than he would have if they were someplace private.

Asano kissed the same way that Karma did, and that feeling and fact were bubbling up in his stomach. He didn't want to think about Asano or be reminded of him. He didn't want the things he did with Karma to feel cheapened by thinking they were like they were with Asano.

Nagisa's eyes looked clouded for a second. "What's wrong?" Karma asked still holding on to Nagisa's hand.

Nagisa broke away from his thoughts."It's nothing, just don't kiss me here someone from school could see us okay." Karma didn't looked convinced, but he didn't say anything. The couple entered the mall and started walking toward the restaurants.


Asano was accompanying his subordinates also known as the five virtuosos to the mall. One of his friends wanted the latest tablet, he was going with them. He didn't want to stay home because Karma knows where he lives and staying there feels like being a sitting duck in front of a hunter.

He was braced to expect anything from the redhead he couldn't believe Nagisa hadn't told "his wonderful boyfriend" anything about what happened. That was the only explanation Akabane hadn't attacked him yet, the redhead has a personality that's far too extreme to not attack when someone touches his things.

The virtuosos dropped the fact that there buddy and leader kissed a guy, a guy from class E, just to piss off Akabane Karma. They don't know why he decided to do this only that he did decide to do that and they were just going to stay in their lane and not ask questions, about his sexuality.

Though, they did wonder if their leader might have any lingering attraction toward them, and what this class E Nagisa kid must look like. And how much of a deviant could he be to be desperate enough to hook up with or crazy enough to get with Karma Akabane.

They all went into a BestBuy store in the mall and Asano looked at some of the products on display pretending to be interested because he knew his friends and group well enough to understand, they are probably thinking about his sexuality. And if he were attracted to any of them, despite his asexuality.


Nagisa and Karma were in the new western themed bistro. The theme was Texas, and it happened to be very big on meats. Nagisa got a medium steak, with mash potatoes and gravy, Karma got 2 jumbo bacon cheeseburgers with chilli fries and a large vanilla chocolate swirl milkshake, because he doesn't care about his health.

The steak was larger than what Nagisa anticipated, so he looked over at Karma who had essentially inhaled his first cheeseburger and was about to start on the second. Nagisa cut a large piece of steak and shoved it in his mouth, he was feeling oddly competitive watching Karma down his food of multiple orders but he couldn't finish the one. As he started to chew his cheeks looked full and round like a chipmunk.

Karma snickered at the sight, he snuck his phone out and took a picture of chipmunk Nagisa. Nagisa saw the flash and said with his mouth full "Deretie rite row!" Karma delete the picture but he saved it in another account so he still had the picture.

After they were done with their meals. Nagisa realized that Karma had gotten the milkshake for them to share. They put the straws in and drank until Nagisa blew a bubble, then it became about who could blow the larger bubble in the milkshake.

When all was said and done they both had a little bit of milkshake on their faces and smiled. Nagisa saw Karma cleaning his mouth from the milkshakes sugary remains. And he saw this as an opportunity to kiss his boyfriend, and get his face messy again. This time the kiss is longer than before and more playful.

Karma smiles against the kiss and wraps his arms around Nagisa. And Nagisa isn't even thinking this is like it was with Asano, shit, he brought it up again. And the kiss loses some passion and breaks apart. Karma wipes his mouth. "Nagisa, something's bothering you, please just tell me."

The blue haired boy answered " It's just, and please don't be made, the way you kiss and…. And the way that guy kissed me feels the same. So it's like every time we do it I think of him, and I don't want to."

The taller boy didn't know what to do with that information. He just hugged his boyfriend and said "I just want you, to be happy when we're hanging out, if this is a real problem. You can tell me." Nagisa hugged him back. And leant his head against his shoulder.

Karma asked Nagisa while they were walking out the restaurant. "Do you have an idea of what you want to do when you get older?"

"I want to be someone who protects the people I care about." Nagisa answered.

"What about you?"

"I was thinking about getting involved in the politics, but I'm not too sure about what I want to do anymore." the redhead answered back.

"Whatever you want to do I got your back, Karma. I didn't know you thought about your future so often."

"I mean the future, comes faster than you expect. I don't want to anything to get the jump on me."


Asano, was having a decent time at the mall looking at the colorful displays sitting on a bench, in the middle of the mall.

His friends were out and about and being terribly over dramatic. On most days he doesn't mind but today. He didn't really feel like dealing with their antics.

He was just minding his own business. Until he saw a blue and red blip, two levels up going to the film multiplex.

He decided he was going to observe them and see their dynamic.

Perhaps, Akabane has had a change of character, and genuinely cares for Shiota. Or perhaps he was playing house. He supposed either were likely.

He started to walk towards the escalator, until he felt his cell phone vibrate.

It was a text from a Ren, "Sorry, we're sorry someone, who shall remain nameless. Told the fact that you kissed that class E Nagisa kid, we're so sorry to some people in class A,C,D and E."

Asano sighed and text "Ok." back to Ren. He couldn't care less if people knew.

But he felt he should meet tell Shiota the fact that essentially the whole school knows and formulate some type of plan to deal with the situation.

He texted Nagisa after getting his number during his information dig on the guy. "Everybody in school knows we kissed we need to talk about it I'm meet me by the Barnes and Noble in 10 mins.-Asano"

He thought the text was sufficient enough to contact Nagisa.


Nagisa was holding on to Karma's arm like one of those shojou heroines and being this mushy didn't bother him for once. He was going to work things out with Karma and things were going to be alright.

Despite everything that happened they were going to have a good time today together.

Karma got 2 tickets to see that new foreign film, and they went to sit down in the theatre. The previews hadn't started so Karma thought it was a good idea to throw a piece of popcorn at him. He looked at Karma who feigned innocent.

Nagisa sank back into his seat. Subtly flicked a piece of popcorn back at the redhead. Karma caught the popcorn with his mouth and ate it.

Nagisa mumbled " You cheat,"

Karma replied "What cheating? I didn't know we were playing a game."

Nagisa rolled his eyes he was going to let this go. Not because Karma was better at chucking food at people, but because he didn't want to make a mess on the theatre floor.

Nagisa felt his phone vibrate and checked it. It was a text from Asano. Great… he read it and well shit. People know now.

"Nagisa, did someone call you or something," the redhead asked.

"Oh, it's just my mom, she wants me to pick up oranges on the way home." Nagisa replied with his perfect pokerface.

"Hey, Karma, I got to go to the bathroom," the blue haired boy got out of his seat.

"Okay, get me some sour candy on the way back." said Karma.

Nagisa ran out the aisle to meet with Asano.

Now, meeting with someone shouldn't be this hard, but it's difficult when a pack of your classmates see you and decide that chasing you is a good idea.

Kayano, Isogai , and Teresaka and his friends, along with Itona chasing him. Itona's expression was nonchalant.

"We just want to know is it true?!" Kayano yelled.

"You're still our friend even if you like guys we accept you, but why Asano?!" Isogai said in tandem.

Nagisa kept running anyway, he was happy his friends accepted him.

Though, that doesn't mean he was going to answer them, without some sort of game plan.

He faked making a turn in the mall, then made a left and entered an elevator, luckily it was fast enough for it get Nagisa and not his made the feigned turn to hard and sprained his ankle.

The effeminate boy sighed. This was not what he wanted to deal with today. Why was this happening to him now, the only only relief was that his mother didn't know about any of this. His ankle would probably be fine and he'd have to limp for the rest of the day which ain't exactly great when you need to run from your peers.

Once the elevator stopped on the 4 level he limped as fast as he could to the bookstore Asano had told him to meet at.

Nagisa stood against the wall.

Asano appeared and pulled Nagisa into the bookstore.

Before Nagisa could get a word in they moved into the store between two book shelves.

"How did they find out about us, Asano?"Nagisa exclaimed in a furious tone.

"I think some people saw us kiss and word got around." Asano answered coolly.

The blue haired boy inhaled in deep breaths while running his hands through his hair. His new found happiness was going to be at least tainted by Asano's actions. He turned to the top student and deadpanned "You, you're going to fix this. You got me into this mess now it's up to you to get me out." Nagisa said pulling back into a calm facade.

Asano nodded it sounded fair enough, he supposed Nagisa was a lowkey type of person and being thrown into the spotlight of all his classmates and being outed as part of the lgbt+community was harsh. But if it got him away from Akabane then he'd defend the blue haired boy.

Nagisa glared at Asano, if looks could kill Asano would be dead. The taller boy remained unfazed he'd faced worse intimidation from his father this boy was nothing to write home about, but he had a respect for anyone who had the nerve to challenge him, even though they were no match.

"I'm going back on my date and leaving I trust you can distract our fellow classmates, so Karma and I can leave this place in peace." Nagisa stated. The young effeminate boy started to limp away from Asano.

Nagisa was going as fast as he can he'd have to think of a lie to tell Karma and get him out of the mall. Not to mention explain how he got a sprained ankle , 'I'll just tie those two in together and we'll go to his place.' as much as Asano can smooth things over he knew someone would mention it or bring it up at school. Being at Karma's house maybe he'd be able to calm him and lower him into a sense of security, and bring in the news so that people wouldn't worry.

Nagisa being caught up in his thoughts didn't notice that Asano had taken him into his arms and started to carry him. "You're walking too slow I'll carry you to the elevator until you get to the level with the multiplex and leave.

"Fine, just make it quick." Nagisa spat out.

He carried Nagisa as fast as he could. Through his vision he could vaguely make out the outlines of his fellow classmates he managed to escape them by the skin of his teeth.

He took a look at the boy in his arms his eyes pleading. " Please hurry, I don't want to deal with this," Nagisa was trembling.

Asano felt bad for the boy as he pressed the elevator button. It took about 30 seconds for elevator to come the gap in time was their classmates to catch up with them.

Almost, as Asano had managed to enter and close the door quickly. Nagisa looked like he was far away.

"Are you okay?" the ace student asked.

"Why do you care? You never had a problem overlooking how I feel." Nagisa sneered.

Asano looked at Nagisa. "I was trying to help you. I might have been slightly careless, but one day I'm sure you'll reflect and see I was right." Asano said in a matter of fact tone.

Nagisa grabbed hold of Asano's shirt and pulled him down to eye level. "You barely even know me! How can you decide what's right for me!" Nagisa yelled.

Asano just stared at Nagisa. "I read people, and I read you, I'll admit there is more to you than meets the eye. But I can guarantee that Akabane is no good for you, that guy isn't good for anybody." His tone hadn't changed but his eyes had softened looking at Nagisa.

"You don't know him like I do. He's different than what you think." the blue haired boy replied in a soft voice.

"Nagisa, what you just said is what people have said for decades to defend their abusive significant others."

Nagisa closed his eyes. "It's my life and I make my choices if they turn out bad I'll deal with it my own way it's not for you to decide."

"Make your own decisions, I understand what it's like to have someone control you. You and I we have more in common than you think." Asano said gently with sincerity in his voice.

Nagisa gave Asano a small smile. He wanted to believe that Asano would leave him alone but he didn't exactly trust him in full, but in this pinch he was willing to take it.

The elevator doors opened and Asano smiled back at him. The ace put Nagisa down from carrying him. He helped Nagisa out the elevator. They were still facing each other. Asano bent down and pressed his lips against an unbalanced crossdresser. Nagisa pushed him away immediately.

Only to find Karma standing about 20 feet away looking right at him.
