hey guys! Sorry for not updating. Also, sorry for such a short bad quality chapter...I promise the next one will be much better!

Why?

'Why isn't Nagisa here?' was the first thought that entered the red head's mind as he stepped into the familiar run down classroom.

"Oh? Karma-kun, did you suddenly decide to show up hours after class started?" Koro sensei asked, a bit ticked off at the young delinquent.

"Tch. You should be grateful the only smart student in class is showing up ya Octopus." Karma snapped back, obviously not in a good mood.

The entire class froze and stared at the tall middle schooler. They could all sense that something wasn't right. He was acting like a girl on her period, and that was never good.

Koro sensei frowned before turning back to the board, "anyway class, this is how you find the slope..."

'Why isn't Nagisa in school? Could it be that his mother found out we sneaked out last night?' The assassin bit his thumb, his eyes turning a dull shade. Karma didn't usually feel worried about things, so it was taking him quite a while to embrace this unfamiliar feeling. Before he knew it, the red head had zoned out and their lunch break began.

"I'm leaving for today." Karma stated firmly before standing up and making his way out of the classroom, leaving everyone quite a bit confused.

Now the red assassin was standing in front of his classmate's house with nothing but his uniform on in the middle of winter.

'Should I just go in? No...Nagisa's mother might be at home. I'll crawl in through the window then.' He quietly approached the tree beside the house, jumping up and grabbing the largest branch. Karma swung his body back and forth before swinging his legs up to get a good foothold. Thanks to Karasuma sensei's lessons, everyone in class knew how to climb trees and other objects with ease. Soon the red head was near the top of the tree, Nagisa's window only a few feet away. He began to inch his body towards the glass carefully, reaching a hand out to pull the window open. Surprisingly, it opened very easily. Karma smiled a little bit, knowing that Nagisa probably unlocked his window on purpose. The adolescent lowered himself through the window, and rolled onto the floor. Nagisa's room wasn't big, but it was nice and clean. 'It smells pretty nice too...' He shook his head and blushed a little bit to get the thought out of his head. Near the wall was a medium sized bed with a small looking boy under the blankets.

"Nagisa?" Karma called out softly. No response. After walking closer to the bed, Karma looked down at the defenseless bluenette. Nagisa had sweat running down his head, his face was red and his hair was down. 'He's sick isn't he?' Karma thought bitterly. 'It's all because I took him outside in such cold weather...' Just as the red head turned to leave, a small shaky hand gripped his arm.

"K-Karma-kun..."
