My Endurance (Karma Akabane x Reader)

|16| Winner!

-Third POV-

Ever since your fight with Karma you never talked to him since then, you studied and studied determined to beat the boy at his own game. Not only were you studying but you were making considerable progress with Isogai, he invited you and some other classmates to go to the library!

On the other hand, Karma he struggled a bit. He slacked off refusing to study since his pride was carrying him on. Not only that he was super egotistical, you were on his mind the entire time, which helped him struggle with living. He couldn't convince himself that he liked you but eventually he gave into you.

He couldn't help it, he was hopelessly inlove and regretted to even fight you. But he got himself cornered, he was forcing you to confess. But what would happen after? Would you guys still hang out as friends? Karma was confused, slightly depressed but he concentrated on beating the boss level to deter his thoughts.

Now back to you and your classmates, all of you guys were sitting together at a table. You sat beside Nakamura and across from Isogai. Being truthful it was relatively difficult to study with a pretty face in front of you. "Aaahhh it's so nice to study in air conditioning."

The door to the library then opened, out came 4 boys. One was an attractive male, he was fairly tall around the same height as Terasaka. With him there were two boys who had glasses, and one of them scared the hell out of you while you recognized the other for bashing on your class during the monthly assemblies. The last boy that was with them was a fairly average looking boy that didn't stand out, but before you knew it they were walking towards you.

"Oh if it isn't the 3-E losers." He snickered as he adjusted his glasses. He walked towards Okuda. "What's the point of studying if you're going to stay at the bottom of the rubble?!" For some reason Okuda snapped. "Hey were studying too,  you're not the only one who can get good grades!" This seemed to get the other males attention.

He stepped back a bit and continued to slouch. "H-hey what is it with you losers anyways? Your glasses make you look like a total nerd HA."

Everyone stayed silent knowing that he looked more nerdy then Okuda. Suddenly you felt a presence behind you and your hair was benign stroked. Turning your head slightly and spotting the attractive one in the corner of your eye you gulped. "Can you please move..." he only continued to touch your hair. "Oh guys don't be quit to judge. There are always some pearls among the swine. If I had any other lower standards maybe we could of gotten it on, but sadly you don't have the brains to do it."

Being insulted like that lowered your self esteem. Suddenly Isogai spoke "Please refrain from touching (Y/N) like that." The boy removed his hands from your body. "Oh wow aren't you a Prince Charming, but that can't really help if you're total idiots."

Then one of his lackeys spoke again. "Oh wait! Guys these aren't your total idiots, they seem to have the brains! In only one subject." He snickered and began to make fun of everyone again, starting to gather attention to you and your friends. "Here how about a bet? Beat us in your top five subjects, whoever gets more they have to do whatever the other class says."

Everyone of you stayed silent as you tried to ignore them to study. Then it happened.

"Come on were betting our lives on the lines!"

Swiftly yet silently each and everyone of your classmates either grabbed their finger or pencils and managed to get the boys into difficult holds, getting them caught by surprise. 

They all stumbled back and glared at you. By this time everyone was watching the fiasco. "T-then deal! That's a bet! Watch out you don't even know what we're going to make you do!" One of them screamed as the others ran away.

You sighed and looked at your textbook. "I don't need any other bets..."

-♥️-

The days for the exams have passed, tomorrow you would be getting your scores. You tried your absolute best, but cursed yourself for being slow at writing. You knew you didn't get any answers wrong since you only didn't finish in time.

You were impatiently waiting for the exam results to finally settle a stupid bet with a stupid red head. You didn't care much for the other bet the other students had for you. It's been around two weeks since you've talked to Karma. But it wasn't really that difficult since he would just skip the whole day.

But when he decided to stay, it was very awkward and soon enough everybody was wondering why you and Karma wouldn't talk to each other.

Blanking out in the middle of Lunch a certain ikemen brought you back to reality.  "(Y/N)... (Y/N)!" You jolted from your seat and looked at the clock. "Ah what is it Isogai. I'm so tired." You said in between yawns. He looked at you pitifully. "I've been meaning to ask something." This seemed to wake you up. Blushing at the possibilities you tilted your head.

Would he confess? Would he ask if you were alright, all of these questions were slowly turning into butterflies which flew around in your stomach.

"Is there something wrong with you and Karma?" this caught your attention, the mere mention of his name made your face scrunch up in disgust. "What do you mean!" Isogai sighed and pulled a chair over to your desk. "Everybody knows something is going on between you two. The atmosphere both of you guys give off when the two of you are in the classroom makes everything awkward."

"Wah? R-really?"

Isogai nodded. "So I finally decided to ask what was going on."

"F-fine I guess you could know. We made a stupid bet."

"Ah, did you guys fight before that bet?"

Looking down you nodded.

"What was even being bet in the first place."

"Isogai... I can't tell you that."

He looked at you sympathetically.
"I understand. But when it's over promise you guys will be friends again?"

You looked up
"What why?"

"Because our class doesn't feel full when you guys are fighting. Don't you care about Karma?"

By this time you were unaware of the blush that made its way onto your cheeks.
"What makes you think that..."

"You guys are always together, and you completely change around him, letting us see a knew (Y/N). And you smile the most when you're with him."

Then you jumped in your seat.
"Isogai! I don't think so! I hate the dummy!"

"Haha I think you don't."

"hmph...."

"Anyways (Y/N), promise? I like seeing you happy, it's cute."

Isogai held out his pinky. You puffed your cheeks and held out your pinky. "If it's f-for you Isogai..."

Then your fingers intertwined as the promise was made.
