Silence (Karma X reader)

Chapter 11

(Ooc Karma up ahead haha... whoops)

~Your p.o.v~
The day after we came back, we had school. I wasn't feeling the best, but I still decided to go. I made my way up the mountain and went to my desk. I was about an hour early, because I wanted to explore a little. I hung my bag on the side of the desk, grabbed my phone and sketchbook, picked up Domo and made my way outside. After a few minutes of walking around, I found a place by a big Oak tree. I sat down at the base of the tree, opened my sketchbook and started drawing the scenery. I started feeling really sleepy, and eventually fell asleep. I woke up and looked at my phone. 'IM LATE' I thought. I picked up all of my stuff and started running towards the classroom. I opened the door and blushed at all the eyes that were on me. I bowed at Koro Sensei and sped to my seat. "Please don't be late anymore, (Y/n). Now, let's continue with the skeleton equations." I put Domo on my lap and pet him as I listened to Koro Sensei explain the lesson. After class was over, Karma pulled his chair up to my desk and sat down. "So, (y/n)-chan, why were you late today?" Karma said with his infamous smirk plastered on his face. I just looked at him for a second and put my head down. "I fell asleep by a tree," I mumbled into my arm. "Doing what~?" Karma continued to question with a mischevious tone in his voice. "N-nothing.." I mumbled, not wanting to admit to him that I was sketching. "I saw you carrying a notebook when you ran back into class. You can't hide the truth from me, (y/n)-chan~" Karma said, reaching into my bag to search for my sketchbook. I tried to stop him, but he pulled out the sketchbook and held it above my head so I couldn't reach it. I looked up at him with puppy eyes, trying to make him feel guilty so he'd give me my sketchbook back. "Puppy eyes won't work on me, (y/n)-chan~" Karma said in a mocking tone. I jumped up and hit his arm, making the sketchbook fly out of his hand and onto the ground. It opened to a random page with a sketch I did a while back. The sketch was of a boy, sitting on the edge of a dock, staring into the water. "You did this?" Karma asked. I nodded timidly. "This is actually really... good," He said, eyes still glued on the drawing. I was looking at it too when I realised that he was looking at my sketchbook. I quickly ran to it, picked it up and slammed it shut. Karma just looked at me with a calm expression planted on his face. I put my sketchbook into my bag and sat back down, putting my head down to hide my blush in the process. "Is (y/n)-chan ebarrassed~?" Karma teased. "Shut up" I mumbled into my arms.

~Time skip~
At lunch, the girls wanted to have a private talk, so the girls and guys split tables. But this time, it wasn't just my friend group. It was the entire class, with the guys and girls split into groups. At the girls table, we were busy talking about boys, and crushes, and how to set our ships up. Of course, I was just listening. I kind of zoned out and tried to focus on what the guys were talking about, because I found the girl's conversation kinda boring. I couldn't hear much, but I could make out a few things. "She's so hot~!"  Okajima said. "Yeah, it's not fair! He's so in love with her! He'd kill anyone who tries to get at her," Maehara agreed. Karma walked out and sat down in between Nagisa and Sugino. "What'chya guys talking about?" I could hear him say. Okajima replied, but I couldn't make out what he said. I looked back at Karma and noticed him glaring at a completely oblivious Okajima, that had not the slightest clue of the redhead's killer stare. 'I wonder who they're talking about...' I wondered. "I hate to admit it, but I agree with the others. She's just so cute! She's like a little porcelain doll, small and quiet, but extremely gorgeous. I wish she talked more, I'd love to know what she's thinking," Isogai said. 'That's weird.. Isogai talking about a girl? I thought he liked Maehara this whole time...' I silently questioned. At this point, Karma seemed extremely uncomfortable. I was getting more and more curious as to who the guys were talking about. "Guys.. I think we should switch the subject..." Nagisa said. "Why? Just because Karma looks uncomfortable? Don't think I didn't notice the glare you gave Okajima. If you have something to say Akabane, just say it." Terasaka said intimidatingly. I was expecting Karma to say something, but he didn't. He just threw his drink on the ground and stormed off. At this point, everyone was looking at him stomping away. "What was that all about?" Fuwa asked. "Karma got a little protective over his little female friend. He swears they're not dating, so why can't we just admit she's cute?" Terasaka said. "If you mean (y/n), then you know perfectly well why he'd be protective. She only talks to him, you know this. Everyone knows this. Obviously they have some sort of bond, and he obviously cares for her. So smarten up before you guys make some dumbass remarks in front of someone who'll get offended." Rio said. "Tch. We just said she was cute. If he has such a big problem with that, he should man up and just say it." Terasaka argued more. "Whatever. Just let it be, and don't talk about her like that around Karma anymore." Rio said sitting back down. At this point, my whole face was red. 'They were talking about.. me?' I was a little flustered at the fact that all of the guys seem to think I'm cute, but I was more flustered at what Rio said, and the fact that Karma just stormed off. I looked towards the direction in which Karma stormed off to, and i stood up walking that same way. No one seemed to notice, as I was sitting kind of off to the side. I started walking towards the big oak tree Karma always goes to when he's irritated. I looked around, and I eventually found him sleeping soundly - or so i thought - on one of the branches. I climbed up with ease and sat next to his 'sleeping' body. "Im sorry for storming off like that, (y/n).." Karma said with his eyes still closed. I could hear the guilt in his voice. "It's fine.. I'm just worried.." i replied quietly, my face dusted with a light pink. "I don't like it when people talk about you like that. Yeah, I agree with everything they're saying, but... I guess this is a little selfish.." he paused, "I don't want you speaking to anyone else but me. I cherish our bond, (y/n), and I hope you do too.." Karma finished, sitting up with his back facing me. "Of course I do, Karma. I trust you, a lot. You've helped me through a lot in the little time we've known each other, and I understand where you're coming from. I just hope you're okay.." I said reassuringly while hugging him from behind. Karma didn't say anything for a while, we just sat there, my head on his shoulder and my arms wrapped around him. Suddenly, Karma picked me up bridal style, jumped off the tree, and then flipped me so I was over his shoulder. "Karma! Let me down!" I said. "Nope~" he teased. 'So much for him being serious for once..' I thought, and let out a deep sigh. He chuckled upon hearing me sigh, and I could sense his infamous smirk. "Where are you taking me?" I asked. He didn't reply, just simply kept on walking. After a while, he set me back on the ground. We were back at the school building. Everyone was looking at us, still in the same groups as before. My face flushed a deep red. Then, Karma sat in the seat he was sitting in before - in between Nagisa and Sugino - and pulled me on to his lap. He wrapped his arms around my waist like his life depended on it, i could barely breathe. Everyone looked at us and brought their phones out, snapping pictures of us while I buried my burning face into Karma's chest. The rest of lunch went on with everyone talking together, and me still on Karma's lap. The bell rang after a while of everyone talking about random things while I listened. I was about to stand up, when Karma picked me up again. He sat at his desk, and set me on his lap once again. "Karma... class is about to start.." I mumbled quietly into his chest. "Hmm~ I don't wanna let my (y/n)-chan go yet~" he teased, making my face burn. Koro Sensei came in and looked in our direction. "Karma-kun, please put (l/n)-San down in her seat.." Koro Sensei said. "No~" Karma said cutely like a little kid, nuzzling his face into my hair. I could hear everyone's camera's going off as my face flushed a million shades darker. Koro Sensei simply sighed and started the lesson.

~another time skip bc I'm lazyyy~
It was now the end of the day. Karma walked me home like always and stayed at my house again. We were just sitting there, Karma playing video games while I watched, until my phone buzzed. I checked my phone to see a few picture messages in the group chat. They were of Karma and I at lunch time. I immediately blushed and threw my phone down. "Hm? What's wrong, (y/n)-chan?" Karma asked, looking up from his game. I just blushed a deeper shade of red and buried my face into my hands. Karma looked at me, and then started walking towards where my phone was. He picked it up and flipped it over so he could see the messages. He started laughing and sat next to me. "Is (y/n)-chan flustered~?" The redhead cooed. All I did was turn and hit the top of his head. Karma playfully pouted and rubbed the top of his head in response.

About half an hour went by when I started to feel sleepy. I was studying upstairs while Karma was still downstairs playing video games. I went downstairs to tell Karma that I was going to sleep, but when I got down there, he was sleeping on the floor. 'Guess he fell asleep' I thought. I caught myself staring at his sleeping figure and immediately turned my head. I walked up to him and shook him until he woke up. "Hm?" He hummed, his voice raspy and laced with confusion. "Y-you fell asleep.." I told him quietly. "Hmm... I'm tired, (y/n)-chan, let's go to bed~" He said, ignoring what I had just said. He stood up, and stretched. I stood up after him and felt his arms wrap around my waist. "Mm!" I squealed, obviously surprised at his sudden action. Karma then threw me over his shoulder and started walking towards the stairs, and to my room. When we got to my room, he threw me down on the bed and jumped in right after, pulling me to his chest. "K-karma-kun! I'm still in my uniform!" I said. "Mm~ but you're so warm.. and I'm so comfy~" he mumbled tiredly. I simply sighed and closed my eyes, falling asleep to the sound of his soft snores.

A/N: omfg I am so sorry for not updating in so long! I hope you guys aren't mad at me... I've just been extremely unmotivated and I've been focusing on my drawings a lot recently, and developing my own art style (which i think I've finally accomplished). I'm going to post an authors note right after this chapter because I need to discuss (?) a few things. So yeah, look out for that. Well, I'll try to update very soon, I don't want to go incognito again haha
