"Alright now, Class, lunch time. Fufufu! I'll just go to Italy for some Italian spaghetti, be back in a minute!"
Koro-Sensei told us before flying away at mach 20. He keeps traveling to different countries, just for food, like of course, sweets. Good thing he doesn't have sugar rush whenever he eats, or maybe that's why he's fast. Nah, just his speed, as always.

"Nagisa-kun, I have something for you..."
Kaede walked over to me, and pulled out a knife. It had a different color, my eye color actually. It's still the kind of knife we use to assassinate Koro-Sensei, with Anti-BB stuff, and is made up of rubber. It's pretty cool, but if you ask me, I just want something simple, but nice. Hey, I might be a boy, but I have the right to say what I want.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!"
Kaede yelled out, with a smile on her face. It startled me a bit, but I smiled right back at her. She was always a simple girl, but she's also really cool once you get to know her. She's one of my best friends.

"Woah! Haha, Thanks, Kaede-chan. Thank you also for the gift."
I said smiling at her. I took the ribbon off that was wrapped around the blade. I took a swing, and another, and another one. It was pretty light, yet still be able to get Koro-Sensei killed, someday.

"Happy, BIRTHDAY, NAGISA-KUN!!!"
I turned as soon as soft hands held my shoulders suddenly, accidentally pointing my newly accepted blade at the person who startled me. His hands went up, like a criminal who just got caught. But to my surprise, it was just Tomohito-kun. Also my best friend.

"Hehe... Did I scare you too much?"
Tomohito asked teasingly, still with his arms up. I looked at him with big eyes and he just snickered in a joking manner. He's our so-called baseball star in our class. He got kicked out of the baseball club because he got moved to our class, 3-E.

"Wah! Tomo-kun?"
I gasped lightly and put the knife down. He put his hands down and offered that he'd treat me to something. Don't really know what, but I guess he'll let me choose.

￣ε ￣

Few moments later...

"Thanks, Tomo-kun."
I told him happily. First time I got treated by him, seriously, this is the first time. It's just a little drink as all. He told me he'll give me the other stuff later.
As we walked back to the room, I felt one side of my hair, that was supposed to be tied up, loose. I tried checking it, the rubber band that was supposed to be tied, snapped. Leaving 'that' part of my hair dangling down to my shoulders.

Yes, I have long hair, not what boys should have. But since my mom wanted a girl child, and since I have some girly features like my height, she did this. -_-

"Y-Your... hair... Nagisa-kun...hehe..."
Tomohito murmured, with a short chuckle. I felt so ridiculous right now, can't! I don't have any extra bands, I never... bring them actually. Never really thought this would happen.

"Do you have anything to tie it back up?"
I asked Tomohito who seems to be snickering his butt out of how ridiculous I looked. I glared a bit, so he stopped snickering and shook his head. As in NO.
He doesn't have anything.

"Need this?"
A familiar voice entered my train of thoughts. A red-haired boy, much more taller than me, held a rubber band. I gazed, seeing Karma snickering, like what Tomohito was doing. The others already greeted me, all except him.

"Ah! Karma-kun, uh, Thanks."
I saud, in a bit of a startled expression. I grabbed the band gently and tied it quickly to my hair, to go back up again. I smiled to myself to know that I looked like me again. Whew!

"Hehe, do you really need to tie it back? You looked kinda cute, like when you dressed like a girl last time, remember that?"
He stated. I do remember that, and a stranger fell in love with me, I think. At least I gave him advice, right? Meh, I'm sure he already found some one else. Ugh.
Why does Karma keep reminding me that anyway? Sheesh, put me out of my misery.

"Don't remind me about that please, Karma-kun."
I begged softly. Both him and Tomohito laughed and I pouted, with an irritated look. Karma ruffled my hair softly and also gave it a pat. I looked at him, and held my head with a confused look.

"Hey you three, I'm back. Fufufu!"
Koro-Sensei suddenly came up with a jolt. Me and Tomohito fell down because of shock of sudden appearance. Sensei took longer than expected returning back here though.

"What took you so long, Koro-Sen-sei~?"
Karma asked teasingly. He crossed his arms and Koro-Sensei just chuckled his natural laughing voice and changed color with striped green.

"Well, if you must know, I took more than just spaghetti... and I also went to Australia for some desserts. Too much food, but it didn't make me full, fufufu!"
Koro-Sensei whined a bit. Tomohito helped me up after he did, and I cleaned myself up. Koro-Sensei then shot me a stare, which sort of made me flinch a little.

"Happy Birthday, Nagisa-kun, fufufu. Here you go."
He told me, giving a French sling bag. I thought he went to Italy? I gave Koro-Sensei a confused look and he just snickered, leaving me and Tomohito confused.

"Well, since it's your birthday today, I just spent few minutes in France, to look for a little present~"
He confessed. My eyes grew wide, I never thought Koro-Sensei would be this thoughtful, especially to this day. I guess we don't really know his personal stuff and attitude that much.

"Thanks, Koro-Sensei."
I told him, smiling. He nodded, snickering, and went to the classroom to eat his leftovers. I looked at the sling bag and it looked pretty expensive. But, really now, that was really thoughtful, giving me a gift like this.

"Hey, Nagisa-chan~"
Karma teased. I quickly looked at him in a weird look and stepped back once. He smirked and put out some sort of hairpin, it had a tiny... ribbon? What for?

"What? What are you holding?"
I asked suspiciously. He grabbed both my arms, and put the pin on one of my pigtails. I released from his grip, and he put out a small mirror. It was completely visible.

"What's this?! I can't wear a clip!"
I yelled. He just laughed and grabbed my hand, forcing me to go inside the classroom. I tried to force myself out of his grip but he was far too strong. Tomohito just kept laughing from behind, and pushed me forward, to the classroom.

"Tomo-kun!"
I yelled, hoping he would stop and help me, but no. He didn't hesitate and kept pushing me inside. Karma took a glance at me and raised a brow.

"Hey, Nagisa-chan~ How come I don't have a nickname~?"
He whined playfully, stopping in his place. I looked up at him, since he was taller than me, and looked straight at me.

"Huh?"
I reacted, almost thinking about what he meant. He didn't really need a nickname, right? And I can't think of anything, of what I can give him. Nope, nothing at all.
Except, his actual name... you can't blame me...

"Tell you what, I'm gonna show you something later, come with me after lunch, alright?"
Karma declared, releasing me from his grip. He gave a smirk, as I nod to his declaration. I hope it's not some trickery or anything, that would ruin my day for sure.
He smiled at me and went in the classroom, leaving me and Tomohito outside.

When I was about to go in as well, I remembered him putting a ribbon clip on one of my pigtails. I didn't remove it. I just hid it with some of my hair and adjusted it so no one'll notice. Then, I continued inside.

AFTER LUNCH • • •

"There you are."
Karma stated in relief as I met him at the corridor. He made hand gestures, that meant that I should follow him. So I did. He led me to the forest, that part of the forest where he planned to kill himself when he kept attempting to assassinte Koro-Sensei. That gave me a shudder, I thought he was gonna be a goner that day.

"Karma? Hey, where are you?"
I asked softly, calling his name as I lost track of where he's gone to. I took glances left and right, almost circled that space, looking for him. Then I saw this red painted star on that one spot on the ground. It looked a bit fresh, like it was just painted on. So I got near it, and basically just entere at the middle of it.

I heard footsteps and I followed the sound but I couldn't see him, he was really quick.

Then, the circle that was painted, were placed with petals, sakura tree petals that is. As I see a bit of shadow, the circle keeps getting more and more filled with petals.

And finally, he stopped.

"W-What is this?"
I asked nervously. I didn't know what he was planning, not ever. He's too unpredictable for almost, everyone. I gazed up to him, and he was smiling peacefully, eyes closed.

"Remember this?"
Karma asked softly, showing in his hand a familiar figure of I think I lost after a couple of years. It was my...

Picture of me and him.

I thought I lost it! It was when our lives were still normal, when we would just hang out together in one peace. That time, me and Karma were so close, we skipped our classes, just once, and hang out. Over the park, arcade, and bowling alley. We didn't want to forget that one simple moment so I begged to have one picture.

After I took it, I kept it and had it scanned. The photo was really precious to me. One day, while I was going back home, I was going to look for that picture, like I always do. But it wasn't where it should be. I felt awfuly disappointed and dreadful that day. I told Karma he said it'll be alright, which didn't help as much.

But now...
He found my long lost treasure!

"H-How did you... find it? This was so long ago, I-"
"I found it. Almost got soaked, in the riverside. Two years ago."
He confessed. He already found it but he didn't tell me? How? Why would he--
He could've told me that, then I wouldn't be so gloomy...

"I tried to give it to you, but it was a bit wet and it became a bit blurry... so I just fixed it up..."
He explained. My eyes were starting to tear up. Not by sadness of his lies but... happiness because he found what was precious to me.

"Karma... this is... the best gift I ever had!"
I told him joyfully. I hugged him, and felt his eyes widen to my sudden action. But he hugged back as soon as he heard me cry.

"Thank you... so much!"
I told him, crying happily. He just tightened his grip a bit, letting me feel his warm embrace and presence.

"You're welcome, Nagisa-chan..."
He replied back smiling. We released from the hug and I looked at the picture. It was like it was before, I'm so glad to have a friend like Karma. I'm so lucky.

"Nagisa-chan..."
Karma soon started. I glanced up and tried to reply.

"What is it, K-!!!"
Before I could finish, my eyes grew wide and I felt warm soft lips crash into mine.
Karma kissed me!

He released from me and turned away, leaving me flushed with a pure red color. I felt myself heat up out of embarrassment as well.

"Ha-ppy Birth-day, Nagisa-chan~♡♡♡"
