"GET ME THE FUCK OUT OF HERE!" Karma screamed as he slammed himself against the door but to no avail. They were stuck.

"Karma! Stop it!" Gakushū held onto the red head, preventing himself from slamming against the door again. "You've been doing that for the past hour!"

"Excuse my trying to get us out!" Karma snapped. He was panting for breath, his legs were shaking. He closed his eyes and tried to clear his mind, but he was getting reminded of that time he and Gakushū got locked up in that room at the haunted house because of Takuma.

Is this Takuma's doing again?! Karma swears to give that green haired bastard a beating of a lifetime when he gets out of here.

"Breathe" Gakushū said gently.

"I'm trying!" He hissed.

The red head shut his eyes tight, trying to even out his breathing.

Gakushū placed a hand on Karma's back , rubbing it soothingly.

Gakushū forced Karma to sit down with him on the floor, making him lean against his shoulder. "Breath...breath, it's okay Karma, it's okay.."

"No it's not" Karma snapped, clutching his jacket. "The walls are closing in...I'm going to get squashed.." he whispered more to himself than Gakushū. The strawberry blonde found this very strange. Did Karma suffer a traumatic accident? Most often phobias are caused by trauma. What could have possibly happened to Karma?

"Those damned twins are dead to me" he heard Karma whisper angrily. "Those crazy twins are both going to be dead soon"

"Hey" Gakushū rubbed Karma's shoulder. "Calm down Karma...just breathe with me, breath" he inhaled and exhaled as he said this. "Follow my lead" he told the red head.

Karma bit his lip, before nodding and following Gakushū's lead.

Eventually, Karma felt himself calming down. The two just stayed like that, with the red head leaning against him and Gakushū's arm around him in a protective embrace. "Ignoring the enclosed area and tight space, this is actually nice" Karma convinced himself. "Yeah, I'm in Gakushū's arms....damn, I'm in his arms!" He laughed gleefully in his thoughts.

Gakushū meanwhile was trying to calm his racing heart. "He's leaning against me, he looks so content staying like this. I can smell his cologne. Damn it, I think my heart is about to leap out of my chest" his mind was in haywire.

"Shū"

"Hmm?"

"Can I lay my head on your lap?"

"What?" Gakushū's eyes widened in surprise. Karma turned as red as his hair and he tried to turn his head away haughtily. "Forget it! I didn't say nothing"

"Anything" Gakushū corrected

"Whatever" Karma huffed. The strawberry blonde smirked, rolled his eyes, before scooting away a bit, and pulled Karma down to rest his head against Gakushū's lap.

Karma blushed again, and he wanted to cover his face with his hands but he restrained himself from doing so because he didn't want to look even stupider to Gakushū. "When did I start caring what he thinks of me? When did these stupid feelings began? God fucking damn it why did I have to fall for this square brain of all people?!"

Well it's too late anyway. He's fallen for Gakushū and there's nothing he can do about it.

He felt Gakushū's hands stroking his hair, and he faked a glare to him. "What are you doing? Don't touch my hair with your filthy hand" he pretended to be annoyed. But really, he liked it.

"I'm sorry, I just thought....it would help calm you down more if I-" Gakushū looked upset, making Karma curse himself.

"Well...whatever. If you like my hair so much then knock yourself out" Karma rolled his eyes.

Gakushū raised a brow at him, before shrugging and continued stroking his hair.

Karma nearly sighed with content, and had to bite the inside of his cheek to prevent himself from smiling.

In the end he gave up trying and just laid there with a content smile on his face as his friend stroked his hair.

Meanwhile, back in the school

Takuma was angry at his twin. "What the hell?! You locked them up in the shed behind the school?! Karma's claustrophobic!!" He yelled at his brother who looked like he couldn't care less.

"I don't understand why you're angry" Takuya rolled his eyes. "It's hilarious, imagine how scared the guy is. He's usually acting tough"

"Fuck you" Takuma growled.

"And besides, how is this any different from when you locked them in a cramped room at the haunted house a few months back?" Takuya reminded him, making Takuma feel ashamed.

"I--This is different! Because I had good intentions, I wanted to bring Karma and Gakushū together" he narrowed his eyes at Takuya. "While you locked them up solely for your own amusement, solely out of a whim...you fucking psychopath"

"What's your point?" Takuya smirked as his brother bristled in anger. "Go ahead and let them out then, the key is right here" he took out the key to the shed from his pocket, and tossed it to Takuma who caught it with ease.

Takuma was about to leave classroom(they were staying at one of the empty classrooms in the second floor at one of the least used hallways) when Takuya spoke again

"Don't act so righteous my cute twin. After all, we originally only approached Akabane and Asano for our own benefits" he placed a palm on his cheek as he burned a hole on the back of his brother's neck with the intensity of his stare. "When did you start caring for the red head? Oh, is it because you've got a crush?" He teased.

Takuma bit his lip hard, before storming out of the classroom, slamming the door shut with a loud

BANG!

leaving Takuya alone.

The older twin got off the desk, and walked over to the window, looking at the courtyard. "So, Akabane likes Asano....Asano is dating Sakoto to avoid coming to terms with his feelings for Akabane, our good friend Hitomi has a fondness for Sakoto....and Takuma likes Akabane but he's not doing anything" he ponders.

Or maybe Takuma has yet to realize he likes Akabane?

Either way, things just got a whole lot spicier.
