•Chapter 32- Good Riddance

Your POV
"Y/n~chan, why are your socks red..?" Kaede questioned after I had put on Karma's blazer and sat down. "Broken glass." I replied. "Oh god! I don't even want to imagine what happened to our poor Y/n~chan..." Rio said, clinging onto my arm. "There, there Rio~chan, I'm perfectly fine now." I wanted to pat her head but Karma was leaning against me and clinging onto my other arm preventing me from moving it.

"I think Karma~kun fell asleep, L/n~chan..." Nagisa sheepishly laughed. I slightly adjusted Karma so his head was in my lap and I could stroke Rio's hair. "Y/n~chan! No fair! Why does Rio~chan get so much attention!" Kaede whined. "Because Y/n~chan loves me more~" Rio chirped. "Y/n loves me the most..." I covered my mouth so I wouldn't laugh. "Karma~kun's sleep talking?" Kaede giggled. "So adorable!" I exclaimed. "I'm adorable too, right Y/n~chan?" Rio asked sleepily. "Of course you are Rio~chan."

"I slept a lot today but not comfortably... I feel really drained..." I said, barely able to keep my eyes open. "You got to sleep while you were..?" Kaede trailed off. "What exactly happened L/n~chan?" Nagisa asked. "I want to know what happened to Y/n~chan too!" Rio tried to grab my hand that was stroking her hair but I quickly pulled away and began running my hand through Karma's hair.

"I don't think it would be a great idea to say anything about it... In fact, I want to forget everything that happened, it was terrible, I thought that I was gonna die..." I felt Karma tense up as if he was hearing what I was saying. "Karma, I know you're awake." I sighed as it didn't seem like he was gonna give in. I sighed as I realized I didn't have many options. I neared Karma's ear and..

His hand covered my mouth. "Don't you dare blow in my ear." He grumbled. I took his hand off of my mouth. "My feet are murdering me and I feel icky, I would like to take a shower." I sent Kaede a glare as she was about to suggest something. "Don't go!" Karma whined. With my free arm I lifting Karma's head out of my lap but he held my wrist, pushed me back so I way laying down- making Rio fall back since her support was my shoulder- grabbed my other wrist and pinned me to the ground.

I looked at Rio for help but her face was just red. I couldn't tell if it was from anger or because of the situation I was in that would- under obvious circumstances- make her blush. "Stop attempting to violate me please." I looked back at Karma who's face became flushed after what I had said.

But he still didn't let me go...

"You're so needy~" I mused. "I know that." He replied. "Fine, I'll let my feet die. Rio~chan, Kaede~chan, and Nagisa~kun are visiting after all." I said, giving in. He smirked as I secured his victory. "Now give me my Y/n~tan back to meee!!" Rio exclaimed leaping on you. "Y/n~tan?!" I shouted. "Your Y/n?!" Karma shouted.

Rio wrapped her arms around me. "Mine! Y/n~tan belongs to me..!" Rio exclaimed. Karma and Rio began to argue... "Enough you two! At this rate I'm gonna belong to no one!"

Nagisa let out a sheepish laugh. "So who did you originally belong to?" Kaede laughed. "Rio~chan of course!" Karma's eyes widened. "I've known you for nine years Y/n! Nine!"

Everyone had left letting me finally take a shower. I was now sitting in my bathrobe. I was too lazy to change into clothes. "How do you manage to stay so cheerful?" Karma asked, staring at the ceiling as he was laying down. "That's a bit of a weird question but... If I become an actor like I want to be, I'll have to act according to the role. If I'm feeling miserable but the character I'm playing is bubbly and cheerful, I'm gonna have to act exactly like that. But more than that..." I paused trying to find the right words.

"Getting too hung up on things makes me really depressed. I tend to not take that word lightly since I've had chronic depression... I don't want that chronic depression to turn into major depression. There have been so many bumps these past few months that made me feel like breaking. You know what happened last year..." I took a deep breathe.
