Demons Mixed With Feelings (Karmagisa)

Chapter 22

Rio's POV

"You both just put me through hell," Karma tells us.

"Just sending our pal back home," I retort back.

I see Nagisa with his lips curled up in a small smile, which takes me off guard. In class, he never smiles. Maybe gives us a smirk, but it's usually towards Kayano or Karma. He doesn't bother looking at the rest of us, and I can't blame him for it.

None of us really bothered to approach him, and most of the class whispers rumors about him. I kind of feel bad for not doing anything about our classmates. Maybe, I could've helped our class get along with Nagisa. Not even going to consider Karma, since he'll push them away instantly.

At least I stopped them from having sexually activities in their backyard. Well...... that stopped me from recording them and using that as blackmail material. Oh well. Should've thought about that before I said anything.

"Not that I mind having you here, but why are you, Rio?"

I look down, seeing that Nagisa was the one who questioned my presence. "Starting my job as your love therapist, of course, Nagisa," I reply with a wink.

His eyes widen for a second then he glares at Karma. "Did you seriously bring one of our classmates into this?"

Karma threw his hands up. "She forced herself to come. I had nothing to do with her being here."

Nagisa goes back to his poker face. "Sorry for jumping to conclusions," then he turns toward me, "No disrespect, but I'm leaving. I'll talk to you later, Karma."

Damn.

I'm only here to get to know Nagisa and help his relationship with Karma, but he won't accept it.

Honestly, not surprised. Just wasn't expecting him to try to leave so soon.

I move over and reach for his arm in hopes of stopping him from leaving. Just before I grabbing him, he turns around slightly, grabs my arm and kicks one of my feet, causing me to fall on the ground as he puts me into an armlock.

Shit. Now, I'm stuck.

"What are you stopping me for?" Nagisa asks me.

I look at Karma, who's standing a few feet away, laughing at me and sticking his tongue out, basically, letting me know that I'm on my own and he won't help me. Fucking bastard.

"I'll tell you, if you let me go and allow me to look you in the eyes."

He stays silent for a moment. I feel my left arm being released from his grip, and I stand up, back to looking down at him.

I can tolerate it when Karma overpowers me because we're about the same height, but with this guy, it upsets me due to him being so tiny compared to me.

"I'm not only here to help with your relationship, but to also get to know you, Nagisa. I'm hoping we could become friends."

Nagisa's POV

Now, I feel awkward.

No, that's not the correct word for this. Maybe, a little uneasy, because this was sudden and very unexpected. I'm still having problems trusting Karma and Kayano, who so far, were the only people even trying to socialize with me.

Nagisa, keep in mind, it's only been one day since you've met all these people.

I almost feel like a dumbass, because all of this crap happened in one day. You've got to be kidding me? I've lost my first kiss, had my first relationship, and almost lost my virginity in twenty-four hours? That's bullshit, so now I have to fix it.

I let myself go way too much today. I need to calm down and remember that I shouldn't trust anyone so easily. If it didn't work out in the past, how could it work out now?

Looking at Rio dead in her eyes, they don't show any mischief or dishonesty. I don't sense any negative intent from her, and her usual smirk is absent from her face, replaced with a stern line.

She's the Goddess of Pranks, so this could obviously be a prank, but she hasn't done anything wrong towards me yet.

Remember where you came from, Nagisa.

"I appreciate the offer, but I must take my leave now. I'll see you both at school." I move away from them and start flying away from Karma's house.

I take a glance at him, and see him staring at me with a sad look. Turning my head away, so I won't keep staring back at him.

Technically, we're still dating, so I'll need to end that tomorrow. There's a slight aching in my chest that's causing me to feel upset. It hasn't even been long, and he has this much of an effect on me. I'm glad I left, but that doesn't explain this strange attachment we seem to have with each other. Is this a God thing?

That makes sense, since I haven't been around other Gods before. This could be a side-effect from our energies and bloodlust clashing. I'll ask Karasuma and Koro about it tomorrow.

I keep flying towards my apartment. It's dark outside, and I don't sense many humans out right now, so they shouldn't notice me.

Once I reach my place, I get in the shower. As the warm water hits my face and slide through my hair, some memories flash through my head.

~Flashback~

I slowly open my eyes. A girl with brown hair and green emerald eyes reaches her right hand towards me. Why is she kneeling? Oh wait. I'm laying down on the ground.

She helps me up and introduces herself with a bright and kind smile, "I'm Kandice."

I don't sense any evil intent, and I can tell she's a human. That's a first. I decide to give her a smile in return. "Nagisa."

"It's nice meeting you, Nagisa. Let's be friends."

~End of flashback~

I feel tears falling down my cheeks as I think about several years ago, when I made my first friend. I look at myself now, and I can't help but wonder......

Why do things have to turn out so different than they were back then, when I was truly happy?
