"Ne Mizuki c'mere," Nakamura said, gaining my attention. I looked at her and saw her patting the empty seat next to her. I walked over, took my katana off my waist, and sat down with the weapon in between my legs
"Yes?"
"How come you have so many weapons?" Nakamura asked
"Just" I replied shortly. "Why do you ask so many questions?" I replied, shutting her up nice and quickly. "Tsk. I wasn't being a serious loser" I said after a few minutes of silence from her
"So you are able to have other emotions" She teased. I scoffed
"I may act like an asshole at times but I can still feel my emotions. I just don't show them"
"Hey Mizuki"
"Hm?"
Nakamura leaned toward me and whispered, "Why don't you go sit with Karma? He seems lonely"
"What for?" I questioned
"Loneliness" She answered
"You said you wouldn't annoy me after yesterday. I could give you a warning"
"You don't want to hurt me. Admit it~" She teased and I growled lightly
"Tch. If I wanted you'd be dead" At my words, she sweatdropped and I smirked under my mask. "Give me a better reason"
"Just do it. You'll thank me later~" I raised a brow unamused
"Nakamura" I warned
"Gomen gomen," She said putting her hands together. "Please? I'll be less annoying. All you have to do is strike up a conversation with him, and I'll be out of your hair"
I sighed, "You're lucky I had to speak with him either way" I muttered, getting up from my seat and making my way over to the isolated Strawberry
Once I reached him I stood still and watched him looking out the window, "Is this seat taken, Strawberry?" I questioned calling him by his nickname so he didn't have to look to see who it was
"Go ahead" I nodded and took the seat next to him. "I thought you didn't have friends" He teased
"I don't," I replied shortly.
Then it was silent for a few moments
"I want to talk about the day before when the girls were kidnapped" I spoke up, earning his attention. "When my bloodlust kicked in and I licked my dagger. You-- you didn't see my face, did you? After I wiped the blood off" I questioned
"Is that why you came to speak to me?" He asked. I didn't reply, "No I didn't see. I only saw your face covered in blood, otherwise no" I nodded at his answer
"I see," I said, "That was all" I then was about to get up from my seat but something popped into my brain and I stopped myself from getting up. "You're the strongest person in the class right?" I questioned and he nodded. "Tomorrow lunch. I want you to meet me by the tree"
"Is that a confession?" Strawberry teased
"I don't have the time to love Strawberry. I'm calling you there for a hand to hand fight, I can tell you're strong, you just need to refine your moves" I explained. He nodded, processing the information. I studied his face carefully when I spoke and noticed a hint of sadness but he quickly masked his emotions
"Why are you sad?" I questioned
"Nani?" Strawberry asked
I leaned in closer to him. "You're sad. Naze?" I questioned again
"I'm not" He denied, leaning back slightly
"I've spent many years and I've met many people. I think I'm able to tell what emotion someone's feeling" I explained, not moving back
"I'm not sad" Strawberry denied again. "I-" He started but cut himself off when we both heard giggles. Snapping our heads in their direction we see the girls giggling and them facing us. I instantly back away from him
"Ne. Karma I didn't know you'd be in a relationship-" One of them started but I cut them off when I stood abruptly and looked down at strawberry
"Tomorrow lunch. Don't forget" I reminded him before facing the girls. "I thought I said I didn't have time for that" I stated monotone walking up to them
Karma PoV
I feel like my cheeks are burning. Why did she have to get so close? But her tone, it was softer than it usually is. I know that for a fact after hearing her tone walking to the girls. But why was it softer with me than them? Whatever I'm thinking too much. But when she did come closer she smelt like peppermint. Oh god, "What the hell is wrong with me?" I whispered to myself quietly, looking out of the window again
