Karma's POV

"KARMA!" I turn around to see...

Kayano? What the hell does she want? "Karma, are you okay?" She asked me.

I wasn't expecting that from her. Now that I think about it. She wasn't one of the people in class who always talked badly about Nagisa and me. She was just silent. No harmful words ever escaped her mouth, plus she even talks with Nagisa, maybe more than I do. I'll go ahead and hear her out, since I have nothing against her.

"I'm fine, Kayano. What did you want to discuss with me?" I told her.

Kayano: "I'll just be blunt. Please don't be hurt from Nagisa."

Me: "What do you mean? He didn't hurt me."

Kayano: "Don't lie to me, Karma. I know you have feelings for Nagisa, and with some time, Nagisa will understand his feelings for you as well. This isn't something that he's used to."

I remained silent as her words start to sink in. How does she know? How can I trust her? How much about Nagisa does she know? Might as well just ask her, instead of asking myself. Not like I ever really paid attention to this green-haired vegetable anyway, besides some of the times she's spoken with Nagisa.

"How much do you know about Nagisa?" I asked. She didn't hesitate to say, "He's been hurt in the past through betrayal from his 'friends' and keeps his distance. He doesn't even want to get too close to me. He believes that he won't get hurt if he's by himself, so he pushes everyone who comes into his life away from him."

Me: "But what have either of us done to make him distrust us? More importantly, what have I done to make him distrust me?"

Kayano: "Karma. You're the God of Mischief. He probably thinks that you're just playing or not serious about these feelings you have towards him. In his eyes, you could be doing this with anyone in class whenever you want to. That's why you shouldn't force yourself on him and just continue showing how you truly feel about him, so he will believe you. Right now, he's feeling guilty and confused from you suddenly leaving class. He doesn't know what you're thinking. Go to him and talk things out."

It's not like I really have a choice. "Alright, thanks Vegetable," I replied with a smirk. "Don't call me that, Karma," she said with a stern face. "But your hair looks like lettuce. You must be the reason why I couldn't have any on my burger during lunch," I said while putting on my face, making a fake shocked expression. "Your head doesn't need lettuce more than my stomach, Kayano. That was just cruel, yet I'm the so called demon." "At least I didn't drain all of the meat of it's blood just to dye my hair, Karma," she retorted with a sly grin on her face. I will admit that she's not bad. I might become friends with her. "Maybe~ but you still didn't deny what I said, so it must be true," I stated as I start walking back towards the school. I turn and flash my signature smirk to Kayano, and she gives me a grin in return. Oh yeah, we're friends now.

Nagisa's POV

Irina-sensei turns and looks at me with a compassionate look in her eyes. She motions her hand, telling me to come over. I complied and we both sat on the grass, looking at the beautiful sight before us of the mountain. I instantly relaxed on the spot and a relieved sigh escaped my lips.

"I was watching you and Karma earlier. I'm surprised by your seduction skills, but can't be too surprised given what God you are of," she stated, still looking forward. I sighed, "What exactly did you want to talk about?" She looked at me, "You don't have to be alone anymore, you know?" I turned towards her as my eyes widen. What did she just say? "I was the same as you at one point. I didn't give my heart out to anyone, because I always thought "No one can be trusted" until I met Karasuma and Koro. Karasuma can be more on the serious side in many cases, but he's shown that he actually cares about me, not just me but also all of you and Koro. He never tried forcing anything out of me in return, so I knew I could trust him. Then we fell in love. The point I'm trying to make here is that you only closed yourself off, because you didn't have anyone who could understand you. You were only surrounded by Humans. Not saying all humans are bad, but they couldn't fully understand how it's like to be a God. Now you have a family. You're surrounded by your own kind, and you have someone who fully understands you. Don't push them away and be alone thinking about the past all the time. Look towards your future. What's the point of living, if you have no one to share your life with?" She's gained my full attention and her words stroke my heart. I feel tears forming in my eyes, and she pulls me into a massive hug. "Don't forget you also have me, Karasuma, Koro, and the rest of the class by your side." I nod my head and replied, "Remember that you also have me as well, Irina-sensei." A smile formed on both of our mouths as I hug her back.

After a while we stand up and Irina points to the field on our left. I look and see Karma heading back towards the school. He doesn't seem to notice Irina-sensei and me. She gave me a wink then pushed me forward. I couldn't stop the blush the appeared on my face.

Why did she wink towards Karma like that? What should I even say to him after yelling at him like that? He's probably still mad at me. Doesn't matter. I need to talk to him.

He needs to know that I finally trust him.
