Finally updating^^ again big thanks to everyone who has followed and favourite my story.
So enjoy that chapter^^ besides in the previous chapter at the end I have given a link where you can see the picture that gave me the idea for their little challenge^^
Nagisa left the mountain and went to the train station. Alone. Karma left without him. Full of anger. But why was he so angry? Nagisa wondered. As far as he knew the redhead would be disappointed to lose again, but to be so mad?
After all he was the one that made the challenge. He was the one that made fun of Nagisa after he had kissed Kayano. So that's why the bluenette thought to try the same technique with Karma. As he expected the taller one didn't see that coming. Perfect Assassination. His target could have been dead.
The next thing that bothered the short boy was why he went that far. Why did he kiss Karma? He wanted to win the challenge, but really so badly? Was his move worth it? What if Karma is grossed by his actions? Will he keep distance to him again? Was a challenge worth it to risk their friendship?
He took his phone out. A message should do it. He would write him that he was sorry. That he never wanted to offend the other one. That there aren't any feelings behind the kiss. It was just an assassination attempt.
He was about to write down his ideas, but paused for a second. Is that really what he feels? Was there really nothing behind? He did feel strange, when he kissed his closest friend. It wasn't the same feeling with Kayano.
His chest felt so heavy at the thought, what is this feeling? While being deep in thoughts Nagisa didn't realize when the train stopped. Until the doors opened before him. He exited. Wandering through the streets. He had decided against any explanation per texting and thought about to talk to Karma face to face. But all in all it did feel weird by now that he kissed his friend. Why did he do it?
In same time Karma had reached his mansion. Opened the doors, shut them behind him. There were some maids and one butler left. Cleaning the house before they would go home. His parents had hired them mainly to keep the mansion clean and in order.
They actually never wanted outsider to stay too long around their precious 'collection'. Meaning all the strange stuff everywhere in the house. They made a fetish of their multi-cultural collections of furniture, portraits, dishes and what so ever.
When the people were finished they bowed a goodbye to Karma, who nodded, and then left the building. The butler however turned one last time to him. "Young master if you need anything, please feel free to call me."
Karma just nodded again. The people working in here weren't close to Karma, they all felt just like some bunch of strangers wandering around in his, or rather his parents' mansion. Only the one butler here named Sekinin Odayakana, who was his personal butler, felt at least more like someone he knew. Not really as a friend though or a replacement of his parents.
He walked to the sofas in the middle, throwing himself on one. It was soft. Comfortable. His mind flew back to events after school. When Nagisa kissed him. He was totally frustrated. Never had he thought that out of all the tricks his friend could have pulled out it was a kiss.
Seducing your friend in order to win a simple challenge is ridiculous. But it was true, Nagisa is just like that. Always doing the unexpected.
He let out a heavy sigh. Reaching out to his phone he looked once again at the picture. Just stared for a while then lead his thumb to the delete sign and assured his decision with 'yes'. Somehow that picture that made him mock Nagisa wasn't funny at all. He thought about getting these two together so that he had more fun with joking around with Nagisa. Yet this thought disgusted him. Why? He wondered.
In the end his plans somehow backfired. He was sure to make Nagisa flustered and getting more things to blackmail him with his challenge, he had had good ideas, yet he was again the one to lose.
After a second heavy sigh the redhead decided to get himself something to eat. There wasn't anyone around who could bring him anything, neither anyone to order around. Well it's not like he needed anyone. After all he was used to do everything by himself. But for the first time in a while he felt lonely.
Maybe he shouldn't have invited Nagisa and Rin (who actually wasn't invited though). Maybe he wouldn't feel like that now. Besides he said some things which he never wanted to tell. He really admitted to have feared Nagisa. How could he blurt out all of that nonsense?
He stopped at the stove looking around to find any idea what to cook. Then headed to the fridge took out some ingredients lighted a flame and started cooking. It wasn't even five minutes when his phone rang. He took it out of his pocket with one hand and still cooking with the other. "Yes?" he answered. His butler was calling to inform him about something.
"Ah Oda! What's up? Another One Piece update or what?"
"Please young master, I told you to stop with these jokes." Came back from the other line.
"Fine, fine man you really don't have a sense for humor, have ya?" he laughs a little ad then continued. "What's the matter? Huh? I see, so my parents aren't coming back anytime soon", he repeated in his usual bored voice. All thoughts from early gone.
"Ah, don't worry am fine" he assured in his usual singsong tone. "It's actually not like I expected them to be here." He hung off the phone. All of his cheer from just seconds before gone. His eyebrows narrowed as he gritted his teeth and threw the phone somewhere backwards not caring where it landed. They could have at least called me!
On his way Nagisa saw a familiar black haired figure. It was until he reached that person to realize he was standing before Rin. "Yo" she greeted him, unusually happy. "Hi" He now remembered the cool December climate around him and slipped his hands in his jacket's pockets. Was it that cold? "It's rare to see you here" he said. "Yeah, there were things for someone I wanted to get." Someone? Who could that be?
"Besides, aren't you late?" she asked, "I don't think that it takes so long to clean up our classroom." This sentence made him remember the scenario after school, trying his best to hide a blush. "Yeah, we took our time."
The girl smirked slyly. "Making out or what?" His blush became visible
"O-of course not!"
"Aw, your face tells me something different." She sighed,
"Come on I know how you feel about the redhead."
"What do you mean?"
"You are hopeless" she shook her head, "You know I started doubting that some time before but I have my confirmation." She grinned widely at the confused look of the smaller one. Nagisa just watched as she took out her phone. "I admired you for a long time, wasn't it?" She said unlocking the screen.
Pure horror came to the teal head as realization hit him. She didn't! His mouth dropped, hanging wide opened at the picture. It was taken from a greater distance, yet the figures were perfectly visible. Perfectly visible when Karma and Nagisa almost kissed each other. On no!
"You..! That..! You didn't!"
"I did." Her smile grew cheekier and devilish. She did wait for the perfect moment to show Nagisa that picture, (not mentioning some others she had taken were still waiting). Seeing Nagisa's face as red as Karma's hair was after all worth it.
"Delete it!" shouted the small boy at her, while trying to snap her phone out of her hand. In vain. He cursed his small body "You're too small, Nagisa" she teased. "Besides your conversation was quite interesting."
"Why did you stalk us?" Nagisa's embarrassed expression changed to an angry one, even though he was still red in the face. He knew it. It was stupid of him to think Rin didn't see anything. "But I must say I have never that Akabane expected to be like this."
"Don't ignore me!" In the next moment the girl shot him a serious glare. No smile, no smirk. "Be honest" she said, "what do you really feel about him?" And that question left Nagisa speechless. What does he feel? He had no idea, but somehow he didn't want to say it like that. He wanted an answer. He wanted all the confusion in him to be cleared. So the best thing he figured in that evening was to speak. Tell his feelings and let Rin judge what they were. Although he had no idea if the said girl really was helpful. And yet he still talked to her.
Soon after he finished dinner Karma went straight for bed. Usually he would stay up and do some evil thinking, but right now he didn't feel like that. He was disturbed, but by what? There was no answer. Which made him a little mad. While trying to sleep, there went a lot if things through his mind. Mostly his memories of the day and all the others together with Nagisa.
On the other side of the town, the little blue head felt the same. He was thinking. That what he felt was it really that? His mind went through all of his memories with him and Karma. Is that even possible?
After a while, they both were able to fall asleep. No matter what was actually bothering them, they'd find out soon and find a solution to it.
Not knowing that there might come different problems.
"What do you want?" A voice rang inside of his head. A question. But who was asking?
"What?"
"What do you wish for?"
"What is that all? Who's there?"
"You will have to choose soon."
The voice disappeared, but all of a sudden there flashed a lot of pictures through his mind. He saw his classmates in despair. But why? The next second there was Koro-Sensei in far distance from him. Why?
He saw Nagisa looking at him. Disappointed. Why? In the next moment was something he couldn't recognize and suddenly he startled out of his sleep. The redhead sat there. Soaked in sweat and painting heavily. Only question in his mind was 'what'. What was that?
It was too early in the morning. Still a lot of time until school starts, but he didn't want to sleep. Not that Karma could actually do so. Do he stood up to take a shower maybe that will be refreshing? And besides he still needs to pay back a certain blue head. He needs to think of an idea.
Later on Karma was sitting in the Classroom. Being the first one to arrive. Which was kind of surprising, but no one would comment on it. (Except for Terasaka, but he received what was to be expected.) The redhead felt exhausted because of the lack of sleep. His skin was paler than usual, but he kept his usual cool and bored expression. To his luck, no one noticed it.
When Nagisa arrived, he immediately thought about yesterday. Pushing away the memory of his dream he started smirking. He wanted to pay Nagisa's favor back and got an idea. For this he needed to wait until after school. So he also needed to stay there the whole day. Again no one was about to comment, not even Terasaka anymore, since he had learned his lesson.
The day passed with the usual assassination attempts, no one really made much efforts to come up with new things, since they were planning on saving their target. Karma didn't even come up with any ideas at all. All in his mind was what he was about to do to Nagisa. He needed to wait for the perfect moment, in which the blue head would never expect anything to happen. Typical assassin basics.
During lesson, he managed to pass on a note to Nagisa. When receiving it the blue head first looked at him. Karma nodded to confirm that the note was from him. Carefully, not attracting Koro-Sensei's attention he unfolded the paper.
Meet me after school. At the back.
He sighed. Was it even necessary to give the note? Checking if Koro-Sensei wasn't paying any attention he turned once more and gave the redhead an assuring nod. The said boy started smirking widely.
Suddenly there was blowing wind and before Nagisa knew it the note was taken away from him. "Please Karma-Kun don't distract Nagisa-Kun" he said with his typical smile, not that it ever changed though. He didn't actually seem disturbed by their actions, maybe he was even a little joyful. Who knows? Karma just shrugged lazily and extended his tongue towards him.
A little bit embarrassed at the sudden attention of his classmates Nagisa had to force back a blush. Which was noticed by Kayano, sitting next to him. She didn't say anything though, but she was kind of interested in what these boys were passing each other. Instead of throwing the paper away, their teacher put it on his desk for some reason. A reason that made Kayano curious, but not only her. In the back a black haired girl was amusedly watching the scene.
The lessons went on and since the redhead wasn't about to leave his classmates felt a little bit disturbed. After all they were hoping to plan their Christmas/Birthday surprise and as long as Karma remained in the class they couldn't discuss anything. After school wasn't possible, since not everyone's daily schedule matched to get all gathered. School was only chance to gather all of the students. They could only hope to make plans the next da.
So then as the bell rang once again, the students rushed outside. Leaving their yellow octopus teacher behind who took out a special folder. Scribbling something in. While doing so, Rin popped out of nowhere to look over his 'shoulders'.
Pairing File
Was written on it. Koro-Sensei shut it close in surprise to see the girl behind him. "R-Rin-San! Why are you still here?" he asked flustered.
"No reason" said the girl. "But it's a surprise to find out how dirty our sensei is." She grinned widely, "Well then again, it's not that surprising. Your affection towards gossip." She leaned back. "But since when did you start shipping these two?" She looked at her teacher with innocent eyes, having an idea about the answer. "Because of the note, or something else?" The yellow teacher laughed his usual laugh. "Well somedays ago I indeed have seen something interesting."
"You're a damn stalker."
He turned to the door. "Is something the matter Kayano-San?" Making the black haired girl's attention go to the door too, the said girl stepped in front a little nervous. "Who are you two talking about?" The other two exchanged confused sights.
Knowing how she thought about Nagisa, it might not be good to give her an answer. Rin knew that. She had realized a little different in Kayano's attitude towards Nagisa and could figure out why that was so. Rin might be someone not to care much about others' feelings, but since these two weren't close to a relationship, was there any point to make Kayano depressed over it? Definitely not.
So the green eyed girl put on a sweet smile, a smile made to fool others that worked always. Maybe since Kayano was an actress she might be able to see through some acts. "Nothing important. Our stupid teacher was stalking some students and started his damn gossip again."
As she thought, the green haired girl didn't look convinced at all, but Rin knew how to handle difficulties, as an assassin she had to fool even the trickiest person and managed it. "It's not a surprise to hear that though, but Kayano, what are you expecting?"
Her voice sounded naturally composed. Anyone could be fooled by her lie, and throwing back a question helps a lot. "No, no it's not that", replied Kayano, "I'm just curious. And that you seemed to be interested Rin, I thought it might not be the usual gossip"
Not bad, Rin thought, Kayano even spied on them, without her noticing it. If it wasn't for Koro-Sensei's nose they wouldn't have noticed her at all. She was a good assassin after all. Koro-Sensei stood up from his chair gathering all of his documents. "If you girls would excuse me, I need to buy sweets from Germany. I heard they have some good chocolate."
He left the room perhaps to go pick up his wallet. Tch! Show-off thought Rin as she watched her teacher leave. Left behind with Kayano. She smiled one last time at her. "Well if you think there's more to that gossip, why don't you find out yourself?" With these words she waved Kayano a goodbye and left the room.
While these three were in the classroom Nagisa and Karma met up in the back of the school building. Just as Karma wanted to.
"Is there any special reason to come here?" the blue head asked. Karma smiled innocently at him. Like the way he smiled at Koro-Sensei at their first meeting, and Nagisa can't help but shiver. There must be something in his mind. Maybe he was still upset because of that what the blue head did to him. But that moment was good for him to clear everything.
"Nothing Nagisa" said the redhead. "I just wanted to meet you. How about an assassination attempt. Together." Nagisa rose an eyebrow in question. Karma was in no way someone to team up with others in assassinations.
On the other hand, it could be that Karma changed in that, after their fight. "Really?" he replied. Karma nodded. He stepped closer, his hands in his pockets. The ever presenting smirk on his face. "You sound not sure."
"It's not that. I thought you wouldn't be that kind of person to team up with others."
"Nagisa is different than others." The smaller one blushed. Did he hear right?
"You made me give up in that fight, beat me with my own tactics and even won against me twice. Obviously I wouldn't team up with anyone but than you." His smile looked genuine.
Nagisa started wandering if Karma was aware of his own words. This situation was just too awkward and the blue head was totally lost in his words. Did Karma really think in that way of him? Confusion increased in him. What am I supposed to do?
Without him realizing it, the redhead stepped closer. Taking out one of his hands and bringing it to Nagisa's throat. Before the smaller one even knew what happened a pair of soft and warm lips were pressed on his. Lost in the sensation. Being kissed this time. He himself fell to the ground, with a green rubber knife held to his throat.
The lips parted. "Gotcha!" said Karma triumphant as he wiped his lips. And for some reason this action of his made Nagisa feel some pain in his heart. "Come on. Don't look like this at me, Nagisa." He reached out his hand to offer it to Nagisa. "An assassin should be prepared for anything at any time, right?"
Nagisa took his hand. Came back to his feet, with a disappointed look in the eyes. Maybe this action of his friend just destroyed some hope inside of him. Especially after his talk to Rin last evening. "Besides sorry"
The small assassin looked up to his friend, surprised. "Yesterday I overreacted. Sorry for that." It was unusual for Karma to apologize for something, even if he knew that he was on fault, he wouldn't accept it. Once again did Nagisa feel strange. Something isn't right here. He starts to misinterpret his friend's words. Was that due to his feelings?
"But really you have some guts", said Karma as he put one Arm around Nagisa pulling him closer. He embraced Nagisa's neck with one arm and the other went for his head. Hand rubbing his blue hair. "To pull such a move against me. Every other guy could have been dead by now, you know." He put more pressure in his embrace making the other gasp for air and letting little 'ows' escape his mouth.
Karma let go off him again taking something out of his pocket. "Well, just forget all that. Let's go eat somewhere." He showed a purse and Nagisa immediately understood where he got it from. "My treat."
The little blue head couldn't help but chuckle. There was no need to scared now, everything was fine. Well for the moment only. "That's so much like you, Karma." The said boy shrugged. "Can't help it, right." He reached out to grab Nagisa's arm and pulled him along. "Come on, before the octopus finds out."
As these two were leaving the mountain Karma once again spoke up. "Besides we still can go for an teamed up assassination. Ya know."
When they reached the mountain's bottom Koro-Sensei realized that his purse was missing and let out a whining scream. "Karma-Kun!"
Sorry if everything is so rushed well so Karma got his revenge and Nagisa is still confused with his feelings. Please leave some revieews I really want to know how you think about my story. Thank you
