Karma's Touch (Karma Akabane X OC)

↑What A Bitch↑

❄️Rin❄️

I feel a hand brushing my hair out of my face. "Hey, Tsubaki, wake up." I open my eyes and see Karma crouched down at my bedside. "It's time for school." I nod and a yawn interrupts my train of thought.

After hearing it for the first time Karma teased me to no end about how I sound like a puppy when I yawn. I've been staying in Karma's house for two days now and I'm kind of glad we had the weekend to ourselves.

It made it easier to get to know each other more. A hand pats my head, ruffling my already wild hair, and I look to see Karma with an amused smile. "You're so adorable," he teases and I blush. "Whatever," I say taking a page out of his book when he's embarrassed. "Get dressed. I'll wait for you downstairs. Unless you need help?"

I shake my head. My back is still a little stiff and in pain but as long as I don't overexert myself too much I can manage. "I'll be alright." He nods before leaving the room. I pull the blankets off and push myself into a sitting position, groaning softly at the ache in my back.

I pull off my night clothes and get dressed in my dark grey uniform. I grab my bag and leave the room, heading down stairs to where Karma is waiting. "Ready?" I nod and he opens the door, allowing me to step out first. We walk side by side, maneuvering through the city, until we reach the bus stop.

"You feeling alright?" Karma asks and I look up at him. "I'm okay. I've been through this before, remember?"

"Never forgot," he says with dark eyes and I lace my hand with his. I lean against him and rest my head on his arm. I feel his free hand cup my face and his thumb stroking my cheek. I keep my eyes closed and enjoy the actual feeling. He drops his hand back to his side when the bus stops in front of us.

I open my eyes and attempt to let go of Karma's hand but he doesn't loosen his grip. He tugs me onto the bus and we walk down the aisle until we find a seat. I slide in and he slides in next to me. "Since when do you two get on together?" Nagisa asks a few rows back.

"Since now," Karma replies with a lazy smile and Nagisa rolls his eyes. I chat with the red head beside me as the bus picks up more of the E-Class students. "Hi, Rin," Nakamura calls as she gets on and I nod in greeting. She sits in the seat across from us and gives us a playful smile.

"I see you're trying to steal my new partner in crime from me."

"Yeah, it's been my plan from day one," I reply sarcastically but without contempt since I know she's just joking. "Girls there's plenty of me to go around. You can share."

"Keep dreaming, Akabane. A threesome ain't gonna happen," I say jokingly and his eyes widen in slight surprise since he's not use to me making the dirty joke. "How bout a twosome?" He asks me suggestively and with a devilish smirk. I knew my face is burning up even if I can't feel it.

He laughs as he gets his desired response from me and I shake my head. "I don't hear a no," Nakamura says in a sing song voice and I cover my face while Karma laughs. "Now both of you are tag teaming me?!"

"You make it too easy, Rin," he says as he stops laughing. I elbow him in the stomach and he makes a noise. I cross my arms and he still laughs once he gets his breath back. "I think you made her mad, Karma. She's so cute when she's angry," Nakamura says and some of the other students laugh.

I sigh and roll my eyes as I watch the scenery passing by, ignoring the painful throbbing in my back. We arrive at school and get off the bus, making our way up the mountain, and into our shitty school building. That Koro Sensei seems to be fixing bit by bit. We file into our classroom and slip into our seats.

I sit in my chair, tapping my pencil against my desk, shifting my feet as we wait for Koro Sensei to show up. Eventually he, Karasuma, and a blonde bimbo show up in our classroom. She's quite literally all over the octopus and the whole class is staring at her in disbelief.
