Natsume looked down his eyes glowering at Narumi who was talking to a girl with
childish pigtails, the girl reminded him painfully of his sister, opitmistic expression and naive
foolish smile, it all annoyed him. "Maybe of course", Narumi replied to the girls question,
Natsume had enough she would have to be victimized in his break out scheem he heard Ruka
calling out his name saying something but he jumped anyways, blowing the wall up, Narumi
fell and the girl went flying ten blocks away, Natsume for some reason felt sorry her but he
couldn't think to much about that he looked back at Narumi but to late he was already being
attacked by the teacher, the teacher took the bean whip and knocked Natsume out of the air
making him land face forward, a cry from the girl and then a smell of flowers drifted toward
Natsume, "Are you alright?", the girls hand reached out toward him, Natsume didn't like the
feeling that she gave him, the feeling that she was nullifying his Alice he decided he would
burn her, but before he could a foot stepped on his hand he looked up, "no you don't",
Narumi said as he bent Natsume's head up and started kissing his fourhead, Natsume caught
the girls horrified expression, embarrasment and rage entered his blood stream but soon
he was out.
Natsume watched as Ruka and Hotaru helped Mikan out with the trash clean up during
the christmas ball, Ruka was smiling widely love lumimscent in his eyes, Natsume frowned
as he watched Mikan dirty her dress up and mussing up her hair that she had made look so
nice. She was just like his sister except more precious to him, she was like a treasure and
although he never wanted to admit the growing feeling deep inside his heart that he was
feeling toward Mikan, he knew it was going to come out eventually anyways after all Ruka
kept staring at him with odd eyes. "Natsume! I danced with Sakura during the alice festival
it's your turn to dance with her, I'm going with Imai", Natsume stared at Mikan who stared
back at him with incredulous eyes, he waited for her to do something but she just stood
there looking at him, he grabbed her she looked at him shock raining through her bright,
wide chocolate colored eyes, "Natsume?", his name fell from her lips like diamonds, he
shrugged, "Don't you wanna dance?", he didn't wait for a reply, they started to dance,
awkwardly, it was pissing him off that she wasn't showing that same goofyness that
she had showed Ruka, "Baka, smile a little!", she reacted instantly, "who's stupid you
ugly fox!", he held back the grin threatening to come out, "ugly girl!",
"stupid boy!",
"insanly ugly, childish unides girl! ugly!", his heart beated rapidly when he heard her
laughing his expression lightening up, "why are you laughing?", she shook her head,
"not telling", she kept smiling and laughing, her laughter was amazing like a thousand
angels laughing, it made his heart warm some, suddenly they were hit and Mikan
went toppling down onto him, her mouth hit the side of his mouth hard, her teeth
scrapped against his lip, a kiss and it wasn't bad he stared up at her through his eyes.
Someone remakred the kiss and Natsume feeling grumpy about falling looked at Mikan,
"Your not only lousy at dancing your terrible at kissing", and he walked away, he knew
he had hurt her feelings, but her reaction was different it was choas in anger.
Someone was climbing the tree that Natsume was on top of his thoughts deep
on Mikan, "Where's the others", his heart raced it was Mikan he waited till she came
up, her face appeard and they stared at each other for a while then, "That was so
annoying!", she exclaimed, he handed her a tissue as she sat beside him, telling him
her story she was so stupid. "Baka! you shouldn't think about things to much
especially a naive girl like you", she looked at him, "Natsume?", he didn't look back
he looked down, "arnt you angry at me?", her eyes flashed and then she turned her body
toward him, "yes I am!", she exclaimed he stared back at her, "for what?, he asked, he
already knew he just wanted to hear it from her to give him a excuse for what he was
about to do, "for calling it a kiss!", he smirked and grabbed the front of her dress
and pulled her face toward him, his lips brushed hers and then it happened his body
took over he was kissing her, a real kiss upon her lips. They broke apart briefly, "Na-",
he didn't let her finish he kissed her again, it was like heaven, his heart raced as he
clung to her like a life perserver, it was in that instant that he knew for sure that he
was in love. It ended with a push from Mikan as she caught her breath, holding her
dress, he looked at her for a while his eyes sad, "That's because you said it wasn't
a kiss", he touched his lips, "so that's a kiss, nothing special", and he jumped down,
he still felt the touch of her lips upon his, his face was warm he left the ball before
any one could see, as he left he leaned against a wall and uttered her name softly
"Mikan".
