"My dateu... my dateu... is gone."

"Such a drama queen" Karma sighed.

You and him were in the classroom, alone, in detention, forced to have at least three seats space between you. All the teachers were afraid that you would attack Karma again, so they gave him the instructions to scream if you pulled any weird move on him.

"I can't believe I am stuck for three hours here with you!"you messed your hair from your anger "I lost a date that could have future... and I don't even know who it was"

Karma was always annoyed listening to you talking all the time about your dates, knowing he was excluded from them.

"Don't worry, I can date you."he winked at you and you glared at him.

"I never knew you would be this shameless. I used to think of you as a prideful smart dude"

"I am also known to always get what I want. And talks about shameless the girl who sent me love letters and enjoyed my lap with her knees~"

His playful tone hit your nerves.

"You sent letters to yourself and pulled me towards you! I really don't get you, Akabane. I still wonder why I talked to you at the blind date!"

He shrugged.

"Deep inside, you feel comfortable around me, that's why. I have not seen you being like that around other boys."

You looked weirdly at him.

"Well, there is no one annoying me as much as you do but... how do you know that? Do you observe how I treat other boys or what?"

He was obviously trying not to lose his cool.

"I am Karma. I have to know everything"

"Oh, don't give me that I-am-too-cool-for-you look to distract me... are you interested in my interactions, Akabane?"

You leaned slightly to his direction, giving him want-to-know-the-answer eyes. He smirked.

"Slowly approaching me, huh? Still trying to kiss me, Y/N? If you come closer, I may scream to be saved by the teachers."

"Ya!" you yelled, angrily "I am the victim here, I should be provided with protection when needed, not you"

He shrugged in happiness.

"Too bad."

You and Karma, two model students, stuck in detention. It seemed unbelievable to you, as well as to the teachers, but because of your rankings there was no one who thought it was necessary to observe you and him. Leaving you locked in a room was considered to be more than enough. You found yourself wishing there was a teacher in a room. You could have avoided talking with Karma.

You pulled out your phone and started texting Kayano.

You
Save me

Kayano
Aren't you in detention? How come texting is allowed?

You
It is not. Just me and Akabane in the room, no teachers, so why not texting?

Kayano
Too rebellious for a model student, aren't you?   ;) Is Karma-kun still alive?

You
Unfortunatelly yes

Kayano
Oh wow you didn't kill him!

You
Yet

Kayano
Hey I have to go out now, so I will stop texting, okay?

You
Wait! Where are you going?!

Kayano
Out with Isogai-kun, Yukiko and Nagisa. You and Karma-kun could have come too, but you are in detention... alone.  ;)

You
That friendly reminder wasn't necessary.

Kayano
Come on, have you got any idea how many girls would love to be in your place? Anyways, he looks interested in you, why not give him a chance?

You
Kayano, seriously, you ship me with every guy that says Hello to me. I can't take your words into account, sorry. And he is Akabane, so... no way.

Kayano
Yeah yeah let the chance slip from your hands... bye bye~

"Kayanoooo" you mumbled depressed when she stopped answering.

You glared at him and he raised an eyebrow.

"What now? What did I do?"

"I can't even talk with Kayano now. If you hadn't brought me here I would be out with my friends now... well, they would have invited you too, but still there would have been other people with us..."

You put your head on the desk and tried not to cry. Nagisa was out there with Kayano. Even though he was shy, he was having so much fun with her and was obviously willing to go on a date with her again.

Great.

You noticed that Karma had stood up and approached you. He sat to the desk right in front of you, looking right into your eyes.

"Hey... what happened to me being close to you and ending up attacking you because I am crazy about you?" I asked him and he laughed slightly at that.

"That applies if you approach me. Now I did, so I promise I won't scream for salvation. So, please try not to get carried away. I can't give my body to you yet."

You chose to ignore that' yet' and wore your disgusted face.

"So, Y/N... you prefer having other people around when being with me? Why is that? Am I making you feel uncomfortable or awkward?"

You were taken aback by his question. Well, having him so close was indeed uncomfortable and awkward, but there was no way you would say that.

"Hell no. You just make me angry and I am afraid I will kill you if there is no one else around to hold me"

He smirked at that.

"Kill? Be careful of your words around me girl, you could play games you don't want to."

"What does that mean?"

He took the pencil you had on your desk. With a quick move that your couldn't even catch, he put the pencil under your throat, pressuring it slightly. You held your breath, shocked.

"I mean that I may be more dangerous than you think."

It took some moments to reply. You just couldn't take your eyes off him. You were not afraid, he was just messing around like he always did, but... something was unnaturally attractive on him. He had a dark and and the same time sweet and warm aura that everyone would love to have close. His red hair, his orange eyes, his strong body...

You wanted to come closer. You were about to lean towards him, but the pencil's pressure reminded you what the situation was.

WHAT THE HELL WAS WRONG WITH ME JUST NOW? DID KAYANO DO VOODOO TO ME?? MY THOUGHTS FROM BEFORE CAN ONLY BE EXPLAINED BY THE SCIENCE OF BLACK MAGIC.

Hot mess...

KAYANO GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!

"Um... Y/N? Did I scare you? I was just kidding..." Karma said with a concerned look, putting down the pencil.

WHY DOES HE LOOK SO CONCERED NOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH HIM AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?!

"I know you are, just... um..."

You couldn't even talk. You put your head on the desk quickly with the sound of the BAM when your head crashed on the wooden surface and tried to hide your confused face. He was just surprised.

"Let me sleep, I... I am tired... Wake me up... when detention is over."

You closed your eyes tightly and wished for him to return to his desk... but he didn't. In the beginning you just heard him scratching his head unsure of what you just did, but after that you had no idea. You also didn't want to lift your head and take a glance because he would just make fun of you.

However, while you were waiting for him to leave, you really did fall asleep.
---

"Huh? You slept? You are no fun..."

After you put your head down, Karma had been looking sweetly at you, hoping you would lift your head and see him, but no. You really fell asleep and he sighed at the realisation of this.

Well, it was not so bad for him though.

He slowly took your phone from your hand and called himself, then deleted the call from your phone.

"Yay~ got your number"

He laughed and thought about what to do next. With your phone, he took a picture of the both of you and put it as a wallpaper.

"We look good together, you know..."

He sent it to his phone and put yours back to your hand. He stayed to his seat, looking at your sleeping face silently.

"You think I mess around, but I really want to date you. Won't you let me do that?" He said and took a deep breath.

He wanted to caress your hair, but you moved slightly to your place and he didn't want to risk waking you up. For the next three hours, his eyes were on you.
