Hey everyone! Welcome to another new story! I really couldn't hold the idea back, so I had to at least start this. Hehe…
This story is going to be a Natsume/Mikan/Tsubasa with Ruka somewhere in there love square . I'm really thinking about making her go with Tsubasa in this one, since I'm such a Tsubasa/Mikan shipper. They're an adorable pair- and three years is nothin' , yo.
Also, I like emphasizing Narumi's looks as something beautiful to admire- as in him being handsome. Him seeming gay is too much of a given, so I'm going to make him someone Mikan has a crush on because really… Narumi is hawt, man.. Bwahaha. Like momma like daughter. *SMACKED*
Hahaha, I'm going to stop being such a dork and get this story started! This chapter may be on the short side.
And as a side note: Mikan is 15 going on 16, Hotaru is going on 16 as well as Natsume. Ruka is already 16. Tsubasa is 17 going on 18. Everyone else's ages will be revealed when they are introduced.
DISCLAIMER: I don't own Gakuen Alice. I really wish I did, but if wishes were fishes… You know the deal.
Chapter One: Accepted!
"Congratulations, Miss Sakura! You pass!" The really handsome blond haired, violet eyed teacher cheered as he clapped merrily.
I looked up at him, moving my long, brown hair from my face. At first I was absolutely dumb struck, but then that melted into a smile. "Really?!"
"You can't be serious, Narumi!" Another man, seemingly a bit older with black hair and glasses snapped at the blond. I flinched.
"Ease up, Jinno. I am, and she's in." Narumi turned towards me and stood up, making his way over to where I was standing. He crouched slightly in order to be face-to-face with me. I felt a blush creep on my cheeks as he brushed some hair away from my cheek. "Miss Mikan Sakura… You showed me something none of the other students trying out had. Don't lose that." He gave me a charming smile.
I suppressed a giggle to not seem like an absolute loon, so instead I nodded frantically. "Yes sir!" I collected my peach colored dress and slipped into it again, the pink leotard and exposed skin now covered.
Narumi smiled at me once more and pat my head. "Your belongings will be moved into your room immediately. You'll be rooming with your designated partner, be it male or female. You don't have to worry, since you'll have different bedrooms, and you can simply lock your door. Schedules will be given out tomorrow during your tour of the academy and performance areas." he explained while walking me towards the door, running a hand through his locks. "Remember, make friends and get along with your neighbors since they'll be your group partners and if you have any questions at all, don't be a stranger. The phones in the room have my number, and I'll inform you where to find my office." The smile was still on his face- I couldn't help but to smile back. "That bus will take you back to the dorm. You're in room 704. Run along now, and remember, 704!"
"Yes sir! Thank you! You won't regret allowing me to attend!" I called out merrily as I started to make my way.
"Just call me Narumi." Narumi chuckled lightly.
My face heated up for a quick moment before I gave him a thumbs up and skipped off towards the bus. I watched the scenery fly by as it drove quickly. Seemed I was the last student they tested, since the vehicle took off once I boarded.
I passed. I was elated! It was my dream to get into the school for Cirque du Alice! I heard promising students were given the opportunity to perform. I couldn't wait!
The bus finally came to a stop and I rushed out, taking in the scenery. The dormitory was a gorgeous building with balconies in every room and a beautiful water fountain- a statue of the first performer. I stopped admiring the statue when I noticed three girls chatting by the fountain. I spotted one girl who stood out amongst the rest. She had short black hair, almost similar to a boy's hair cut. She shone out over all the rest. My chocolate eyes widened and I dashed towards the unsuspecting female. "HO-TA-RU!!!" I extended my hands out, ready to glomp her.
The girl turned around, icy lavender eyes examining me for a moment. I jumped, ready to pounce, but she effortlessly twirled away, leaving me to crash against the cold floor. "Idiot." was all that escaped her lips.
That there was my best friend, Hotaru Imai.
I got up and dusted off the flecks of dirt that stuck onto my skirt from the crash. "I made it in Hotaru! I'll be practicing to become a performer!" I grinned and clasped her hands into mine.
"That's nice." Hotaru simply replied. She's not one of very many words. "I'm going to take lessons on becoming a manager." Tears brimmed in my eyes as I let a huge frown take over my lips. "What did I tell you about that? You look much uglier when you do that." Hotaru muttered, squeezing my hands.
"But that means I obviously won't have you for a partner. We'll barely even see each other…" I whined.
Hotaru let a small smile creep on her face for a few moments. After a total of 2.5 seconds, it vanished, as if it never happened. "Don't worry , I'll see that after I take the lessons, I'm your personal trainer." My face brightened- albeit the initial tug downwards- my face wanting to express horror. Hotaru would probably work me to death- but I guess time spent with her in any way will be precious here. "None the less Mikan, I've already met my partners and neighbors. You should do the same."
I gave her a nod and a wave. "Good idea! See you later Hotaru!"
I made my way up the elevator and down the halls of the 7th floor. The place was pretty big, and a beautiful chandelier decorated every hall. I finally stopped marveling at my surroundings and began wondering what kind of people my neighbors and roommate were. I perked up when I noticed two boys around my age walking out of room 703. My neighbors! One was a tall boy with unruly raven hair and striking crimson eyes. He seemed pretty unapproachable, but didn't want to be rude. The other boy was slightly shorter than the first- he had pin straight blond hair and bright cerulean eyes. He held an adorable rabbit in his hands. He definitely seemed kind enough. I walked up to them with a smile on my face and took a gamble on friendship. As expected, they shot me a confused look. "Hello! My name is Mikan Sakura. I'm your neighbor. I hope we'll get along." I held a hand out for a shake.
The raven haired boy stared at it before sucking his teeth and walking away! The rude little prick.
I was about ready to mouth him off, but I realized the blond boy had entwined our fingers together and took my hand in his for a shake. "Ruka Nogi. That guy's Natsume Hyuuga. He may seem bad, but he's a pretty good guy. We're in a bit of a rush to the infirmary, but I do hope to talk to you later. See you around, Ms. Sakura." Ruka gave me a kind smile and made his leave.
Very respectful, and exceptionally handsome. Seems like a good neighbor to have. I'll just have to see if I can adjust to the Hyuuga guy and his rotten as heck attitude.
After Ruka disappeared from my view, I shrugged my shoulders and entered my room. Doors were to remain unlocked until the last person gets in. All of our keys were in there, so I was able to just wander in. I peaked in, seeing no one else inside, though I did see both of our belongings there- since I can identify what's not mine. I walked over to the counter, and there laid a picture. It was two kids- a black haired one, and one with reddish-pink hair. I observed it until I felt something grab at my leg. I let out a shrill scream, thinking someone was in here waiting to attack me.
But what ended up greeting me was the sound of a boy laughing in hysterics. My face turned crimson as the guy stood up to his feet, clutching his stomach and composing himself. "Sorry, sorry… I couldn't help myself." It was a slightly older boy. He had messy black hair with powerful sapphire eyes= a star tattoo placed under his left eye as well. You could tell he was lean, but muscular, as his tight sleeveless navy colored turtle neck allowed visibility of his abs. He tousled my hair, grinning wide. "Name's Tsubasa Andou. Looks like I'll be your partner, eh?"
I tried to fight off the blush and shyly nodded. This guy was kind, playful and handsome. Not to mention he was the guy I had to spend almost all of my time with. "It's nice to meet you. I'm Mikan Sakura."
Tsubasa's playful grin was still plastered on his face. "The pleasures all mine, Mi-Mi." He pulled my close and picked me up, holding me high.
My blush came back full force.
If I thought normal high school was difficult to deal with, spending only menial time around distant guys- this was truly going to be a challenge. I had to be much more intimate with this charming boy and also have to work a lot with the other two boys.
May God help me.
