your p.o.v.

timecheck: 10 am, Karma's Residence

I can't believe it, I'm actually in the arms of someone I can call "I love". "What's the matter, Y/N?" I got taken aback as I heard Karma utter from behind. He was practically embracing me with his head buried on the crook of my neck. As I felt his hot breathings against my skin, it immediately sent shivers down my spine and tingles inside my stomach. For a minute I felt like I wanted to squeal so bad. "Nothing," I smiled as I turned to him and hugged him back. "How embarrassing that I confessed to you while being sober," I giggled while continued to cuddle with him. "Hmm... you did the job for me, actually," winked Karma. "but did you really love me as a girl or... you felt pity?" I asked. I knew already that I'm hurting myself emotionally again, but the truth wouldn't really cause more problems. "Huh?" Karma tilted his head as he gave me an unexplainable look in his face after swooping closer to my face and quickly pecked my lips. I felt blood rush through my cheeks and mentally slapped myself for turning a tomato with the crimson hue that tinted my cheeks. "You're cute when you blush," teased Karma. "..." I glared at him. "Whatever," I mumbled after realizing I have to talk to him about something. 

"So when are you going back to your house?" Karma asked. "You're kicking me out?" I asked. "Huh--of course not!—Your parents are just worried for you," he pats my head. "Oh yeah? What did they say?" I provoke him.  "This," he took out his phone and showed me a message conversation of him and mom. "She asked if you're here, and I said you're safe here, and sleeping soundly," he explained. "Tsk, either way, I'm still not coming back," I rolled my eyes. "Huh? Why not?" He asked. "Just don't feel like it," I shrugged. "Damn... Y/N, you have to go back," he reminded. "You can't make me," I rolled my eyes. "Oh yes I can," he smirked and suddenly carries me on his shoulders. "What the—KARMA WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!—PUT ME DOWN!!" I demanded while strangling away from his grip. "Go back or I'll make you go back," his eyes darkened. "Jeez, whatever." I rolled my eyes again. "Come on, Lady-luck... go home for them," he repeated. "Hmmm...." I hummed while thinking of it. "Fine." I sighed.

"Also, I want to talk to you about something," I murmured. "Hmm, what is it?" He asked hugging me close to him. "We had to keep this relationship a secret, please." I begged. "Huh? Why? Does your parents ban you from dating?" He asked. "No my parents' rules are fine, but, I just don't want to shock them and get disappointed at me for dating at such an early age," I explained. "Mhm, alright... if this is what you want, then I'll act as you friend in public," he uttered. "Do not tell your friends," I reminded. "I'M TELLING YOU KARMA, I'M ENDING THIS RELATIONSHIP IF NAGISA KNEW," I threatened. "What's wrong with Nagisa knowing?" He asked. "She's going to— i mean, he's... nevermind, let's just keep it a secret. Please?" I struggle with the loss of words. "Alright," he kissed me on the forehead and helped me get off the bed.

. . .

Karma and I arrived at my doorstep whilst my hand fidgeting continuously while on the way. "Calm down, love," he reminded while putting my hair behind me and away from my face. "It'll be fine, trust me," he kissed my forehead as he rings the doorbell. He started calling me LOVE. The door opened and saw S/N teary eyed while looking at me. "Y/N!!! Thank goodness you're here!" S/N immediately hugged me. "Uhh—where's mom and dad?" I try to not get affected. S/N wiped his tears as he calls for our parents. "MOM, DAD! Y/N'S HERE!" he shouted with glee as he pulked me closer for a hug again. "Thank you for looking after her, Karma," he smiled at my boyfriend and gave me a kiss by the head.

Mom immediately pulled me away from S/N and was embracing my tigther than S/N did, and same with dad. God, the drama, it was just one night. Please. "Thank you, Akabane," they both look at Karma and gave him an assuring smile. "We sure owe you not just one, but many more," mom hugged Karma. "Mom~" I whined as I stop her from being too affectionate to my boyfriend. "I'm glad you took care of her, Akabane," dad reckoned on the other hand. "No problem, Mr. L/N!" He cheerfully answered. "Come join us for lunch, Akabane, just a thank you for taking care of my daughter," he invites. I looked at him secretly and gave him a reassuring smile and got seated by the dining table. Signalling him to seat beside me.
