Karma × Reader: Red and Black Blood

Chapter 23: My Devil of a Boyfriend

The class got assassins uniforms. It's about time if you ask me. It was now the weekend, thank God. When I woke up this morning the first thing I noticed is that I felt a lot warmer than normal. Second thing I noticed is that I was in a death grip of a hug. Third thing I noticed is the face of a sleeping Karma. Yeah did I mention he's a sleep huger? He also is a pain in the a*s to wake up in the morning. I shrugged it's the weekend I'm going back to bed. I just snuggled into his embrace without a care in the world. 

I heard mumbles. "Aw, let me get pictures before they wake up." "Are you f*cking crazy! Karma would kill you! And don't get me started on Shadow! Last time I woke them up I almost died!" "Wait this has happened before?" "S*it I think she's waking up!" I yawned and sat up, Karma somehow keeping his death grip on me. I glared down Rio, Kayano, Nagisa, and Itona. "Oh, good morning everyone." I growled. Karma mumbled something in his sleep. "KARMA WAKE YOUR A*S UP!" I shouted throwing a pillow at him. He just turned away from me grumbling something. I kicked him out of the bed. "F*CK!" He shouted. I just laughed at him. He sat up from the floor a drowsy look on his face. "Eh? What's gotten into you this morning? Wait, you didn't have another nightmare right?" He questioned now wearing a concerned look on his face. I pointed at the other people on the room. He reached in the nightstand lazily and pulled out a gun. He pointed it at them. "Out." He growled. They fled. He yawned and crawled back into bed. "Now let me sleep." He hissed. I sighed and was about to get out of bed. He grabbed me and pulled me back. "Nope." He said. I just sighed. This happens. Typically when I have a nightmare he'll stay with me until I calm down. And on occasion he just stays here. I don't give a s*it, first few times I almost killed him but it's honestly sweet once you think about it. I just yawned and snuggled back into his embrace. As you can see neither of us are morning people. I heard the door open but I threw a knife at it. "OKAY NEVER MIND!" Came the panicked replies. 

When we had manged to wake up we came downstairs. I glared at Rio and Kayano. "Alright so why the f*ck are you in my house?" I asked in a p*ssed off tone. "S-sorry Shadow! Nagisa asked me if I wanted to hang out today and he said he had to stop by here." Kayano explained. I turned my glare at Rio. "And your excuse?" I questioned. "I saw Kayano and Nagisa walking around, I started stalking them to get a good picture. But I saw an even rarer ship. I never see cute things between you two." She said. I could see the horns at this point. "F*ck you Rio." I growled rubbing my forehead. "Why was Karma in your bed anyway?" Itona asked. "Wait, I haven't told you yet?" I questioned. Nagisa sipped some tea. "This is the first time I've heard of a reason. I thought he just did that because Karma is Karma." He said with a shrug. I looked at Karma. "We haven't told them?" I questioned again. He shrugged lazily. I face-palmed. "So I have really bad nightmares and night terrors. Mostly about when things went to complete and utter hell in my life." I started. "Whenever this happens I seem to have a sixth sense for it because almost a few seconds later I'll be there to help calm her down." Karma explained. "Occasionally I'll stay with her because I'm worried it'll happen again. And trust me it happens frequently." He added. "And for some unknown reason he's always impossible to get up in the mornings whenever he stays with me." I growled. "I'm not a morning person." He said. "Neither am I but I still get up in the morning." I argued back. "Really? You didn't seem that eager to get up this morning." He countered. I scratched me arm a little while avoiding eye-contact. "It was a really bad one this time." I mumbled. "Oh, that explains the power surge." He said. "Wait you don't even know what she dreams about?" Nagisa questioned. "I don't make her go into detail, all I can gather is typically when she mumbles things like 'I'm sorry.' and 'I didn't do it.' Those are the most common ones." He explained. I started shivering slightly. "That bad? Typically it stops by morning time." He said pulling me into a hug. I composed myself quickly. "I'm okay. I've handled them before I can handle them now." I said. He nodded and let me go. "Alright!" I said clapping my hands together. "Sorry for that scene right there, my nightmare was a level 9 so yeah." I laughed nervously. "Whoa! Hang on! Freeze!" Karma said. "Level 9? No, no that's bad. That is way to close to a 10 for my liking." He said pulling me back into a hug. "Karma I'm fine." I deadpanned. "No you are not!" He growled back. "Level 9?" Rio questioned. "Since I don't know what goes on in her nightmares we set up a scale of 1 to 10. 5 and below are something from her past. She's used to those so it's never that bad. 6 and above are according to her, 'newer, more like fears of things that will happen in the future.' Now a level 10 has only happened once. That was hell on Earth." Karma explained. "Wait, was that the week where you two disappeared off the face of the Earth?" Nagisa questioned. Karma nodded still keeping an arm around me. "Unlike normal it took her days to recover from that one. She stayed in her room the entire time hiding in the corner. I had to stay with her the entire time. Not that I'm complaining we made some good memories once she got better." He said with a small shrug. "Wait, she didn't even leave her room!?" Kayano shouted. "WELL WHAT DO YOU EXPECT WHEN YOU SEE CLOSE PEOPLE THAT YOU CARE ABOUT DIE IN FRONT OF YOU WHEN YOU CAN'T DO ANYTHING TO SAVE THEM!?" I snapped drawing everyone's intention back to me. "And...you know you can help. You have the power to save them. But something's stopping you. You can't move. And they're screaming. Begging you to help them. And you can't do anything. You want to help but you can't." I said shakily. Karma's grip on me tightened. "It's okay. You're okay. Nothings wrong. Everything is alright." He said calmly. "It's okay. I'm okay. Nothing is wrong. Everything is right." I repeated.
