"e-eh? did you say something, karma-kun?" he took in a deep breath and acted as if he had never blushed before.
"nothing~. come on, let's explore~!" he grabbed her hand and began dragging her throughout the festival.
karma took the h/c girl all around the festival, playing several games, winning many presents, and betting many things on one game. they met up with kayano and nagisa, who were hanging out as well, but karma teased them as if they were out on a date. even nagisa had blushed when he met eyes with y/n's beautiful form, making him clear his throat and look away.
y/n also took part in a drawing competition with sugaya, the topic of the art being "someone or something you love."
although y/n initially planned on drawing karma for that, she overthought of her drawing being displayed for the large crowd to see and changed her topic to koro-sensei, which she won first place for. sugaya was also bumped over second place as the entire class had cheered for y/n and not him.
koro-sensei happily cried tears over his drawing being called a masterpiece, which the students ignored and congratulated y/n instead. the prize was a small, expensive, game console, which y/n loved and adored.
y/n somehow ended up sighing when karma teased the stall owner with his math, a devil tail and horns visible on the boy's features. she looked at nagisa, who gave her a thumbs up and rushed away with kayano, hand in hand.
she happily giggled as she stared at the game console as she walked with karma throughout the rest of the festival, making the redhead blush once again at the adorable sight. as he looked away, she heard something she had mumbled.
"best birthday ever, hehe."
his eyes widened.
as soon as she said that, he excused himself from her and went to talk to koro-sensei about a small celebration, which he agreed to 100%, so, after the entire festival was over and the fireworks display was done, and y/n had some takoyaki and candied apples, she became blindfolded suddenly and was lead to the back forest.
"k-karma-kun, what're you doing?"
"hush, y/n-chan. almost there~"
they came to a stop and he removed y/n's blindfold as soon as the firework was launched, making her eyes widen. all of her classmates came from behind the trees, each of them holding a large paper that said each letter on it. after they all stod together, the words were spelled out.
"h-a-p-p-y-b-i-r-t-h-d-a-y-y/-n-!!"
y/n found herself cry as her classmates comforted her and gave her presents, which she was surprised to find as they had no time to get them.
"t-thank you all so much! i-ill remember this even after i die!"
"although, why didn't you tell us y/n?! we could've gotten a much better birthday celebration y'know!" sugino complained, handing a few art pencils to the girl as a gift.
"hehe, i don't really find celebrations necessary, so i thought they'd be fine without one!!"
"not a good excuse! i'm marking today's date on my next 10-year calendar!" sugino complained, the class nodding at the same time with a scolding face and arms crossed.
y/n was happy, extremely happy. she found herself enjoying the party more than she would have, having cake, playing hide and seek (which karma was the seeker in), having another art competition (which she had won in, again), and chatting until 3 in the morning.
as she stood near the cliff and enjoyed the cold breeze kiss her soft skin, her hair now open and free to sly while her classmates continued to party, she felt another presence beside her.
"hm? whatcha thinking of, y/n-chan?"
"i'm just really happy is all." she turned to the redhead and gave one of her prettiest smiles. "thank you, karma-kun."
the boy beside her nodded, his usual smile on his face as his red hair flew from the breeze.
he quickly reached inside his pocket and picked a small object out, turning to her. "y/n-chan, close your eyes, hm?" she nodded and closed her eyes. she felt her hair being held in kind hands, a clipping sound entering her ears.
"alright, you can open them now." she did as told and touched her hair, but instead of her wild and smooth hair, she made contact with a cute hairpin. she could make out the shape of it like a bunny.
"t-thank you, karma-kun..." she looked down, trying her best to hide her blush, thanking the light to be on her side. she felt her chin being lifted up, which soon slid up to her hair as the grip became tighter. due to the dim moonlight, she couldn't clearly see his face, which slowly began to lean closer to her own.
she tightly shut her eyes braced herself for whatever could come next, and when karma was a breath away from y/n's cherry-red face and strawberry lips, he spared a glance at y/n's embarrassed, flustered, beet red, and nervous face. as much as he wanted to claim her now and then, he changed course and instead landed his lips onto her cheek.
the h/c's eyes snapped open when he pulled back after a soft peck, and it took everything to not faint right there and then. a playful smirk plastered his face, and softly ruffled her hair before shoving his hands in his pockets and returning to his blue friend, leaving a confused y/n.
after a few seconds, kayano came from behind the bushes with a surprised look. "oh, what are you doing here y/n-"
wait y/n don't faint!! y/n!!!"
