Karma Akabane is scared of the dark.

That may sound utterly ridiculous for there are many instances that the red-head may seem very uncapabale of being afraid. There are even times where in his devious personality comes out with horns and tails sticking out when a fun tease is going to be done. But that's one truth he kept just within himself.

As a child uptil now, he always makes sure that his hands and feet were tucked under his blanket, the nightlight in his room is on, and that he's asleep before 3AM. When he's alone in the dark, that's when his imaginations run wild.

Blame all of the scary movies that existed for his nightmares and delusions.

Once in a while, he has to convince himself that there's no one staring at him from above, lurking somewhere from the gaps of his room, and there's no one hiding under his bed nor inside his closet, watching him.

This thing wasn't known to anyone because Karma wouldn't let his pride crumble that he, the sadistic and devious prankster is actually scared of the dark. He just never liked being viewed as weak and some kind of scaredy cat.

Anyway, here he is now, all cuddled up on his bed with Itona. His laptop was with them, deciding what movie to watch. It was no big deal that Itona have suggested to stay the night in his home for Karma's parents were gone doing whatever it is they're doing. Trust him, the fact that he knows he won't be sleeping all alone and he'll be with his boyfriend is very reassuring.

"Let's watch Annabelle." Okay, Karma is now taking back what he said about his boyfriend being reassuring.

"A-Annabelle??" Karma cursed himself for stuttering. "Can't we just watch anime? Maybe Your Name or Silent Voice?"

Hey, don't blame him if he loves romantic animes that could make even him cry.

Itona laughed as Karma pouted. "Wait, don't tell me you're actually scared of watching that movie?"

And of course, despite his fear, Karma Akabane still has pride. He never wanted anyone seeing him weak.

"Me? Scared? Of course not." a cold sweat trickled down his face. He seriously wasn't believing that he was going to say this, "Let's just watch that damn movie."

And so, the most regrettful thing happened. They watched.

~

To say that Karma was scared was an understatement. Fuck him! He was such an idiot for agreeing to watch that damn movie. Because after watching Anabelle, he also made him watch Conjuring and The Ring.

He actually couldn't believe he lasted throughout the movies without fainting. But now, he has to suffer the worse. Nightmares and imagination.

Itona was already fast asleep. Karma closed the laptop and once that light from the screen disappeared made the red-head realize that the lights in his room were out. He was so busy freaking out about the movie that he didn't even notice it. Well, fuck. How is he going to sleep peacefully tonight?

And damn. His mind is messing with him again. The red-head cowered in fear as he stared at his closet. He gulped. What if the doll and those other creatures were inside there? Just waiting for the perfect chance to pounced unto him and attack him. The face of the doll still lingered in Karma's mind and everytime he looks around the dark, he feels like he's seeing it standing and staring at him.

Then the unexpected happened. A loud streak of thunder and lightning came, startling the red-head and scaring the shit out of him. Was that Annabelle standing at the corner of his room? No, it was just a shadow from the trees that reflected on his window.

The red-head let out choked sob. He clenched the blanket that was wrapped around him tightly.

Shit. Why is he such a coward??

Stupid movie, stupid doll. Stupid dark room I'm in. Stupid--

Another loud thunder had Karma screaming, in a manly way, if that's what he wants to describe it. And in an instant, Itona was awoken.

"Karma?" He quickly wrapped his arms around the red-head, uttering sweet stuff in his ear and rubbing circles in his back to soothe him. "What's wrong?"

The red-head swallowed, wiping his tears. Well, there's no point trying to deny it now. He'll just have to tell Itona the truth. And so he did.

"I'm sorry, Karma. I shouldn't have made you watch those movies." Itona apologized sincerely. "And I should've known from the start."

Karma shook his head. "No, it's okay. It's my fault for being such a wuss."

Karma received no reply from Itona, but instead, he only pushed him down on the bed.

"Itona...?" then his lips were just suddenly devoured by Itona's hungry ones. Karma shut his eyes close, letting Itona kiss him.

He felt Itona licking his lower lip. Karma didn't even hesitated to part his lips, letting Itona in. They kissed passionately, hungrily, and heatedly.

It made Karma forget all about his fears. It made him focus his attention to Itona and only Itona.

Soon, they pulled away as Itona pecked on his lips one last time. "You don't have to be afraid, Karma. I'm here with you. I won't let any harm befall you."

Karma flashed him a bright smile. "Thank you. I love you, Itona,"

"I know. And I love you too." Itona said, pulling the red-head into his arms, protectively.

Karma couldn't be any more happier just being in Itona's arms that felt like a shield to protect him from his fear and nightmares.
