Chapter 1:

A brunette was running along the corridors of the Alice Academy, her golden locks was gracefully swaying along the wind as she run and her eyes glitter with excitement because it was a fresh new year for her and her amethyst-eyed stoic best friend.

The girl, namely Mikan Sakura was now entering her first year of High School. She was pretty giddy about that fact while beside her, her most precious and only best friend Hotaru Imai just shrugged her endless talking and praising about their school and how this year is going to be a blast.

"I'm so excited; I can't wait to meet our new classmates!" Mikan exclaimed while slowing down already.

"Yeah," replied her purple head best friend to her.

"Mou Hotaru, why do always speaks so less, anyway what I'm more excited is meeting my soul mate." She was still gonna add something else but well fate strikes again, somehow she bumped into a guy who looks like a nerd with the big eye glasses and all the weird get up. He was the kind of boy who seems to be easily bullied and pushed around.

"Oh! I'm really, really sorry! I didn't mean to! Oh I'm really sorry!" Mikan said while bowing a few times and reaching out her hands to offer help to the boy.

"No! It's okay; I'm also not looking anyway." The boy as he takes her hand to stand up. "Well, gotta go and I'm sorry again." Mikan replied. "No problem" the mysterious boy said to her and jerked back then turn around and continued "Hey! What's your ?..." but unfortunately she already run off and dragged her friend with her. His curiosity was rising because just by seeing her, he remembers and recognizes her face, she was someone familiar to him.

Meanwhile at the classroom...

"Good morning my lovely students, since it's the first day lets have an introduction shall we." Their advisor, Mr. Narumi hummed to his students. "Now let's start from you." He said in a sing sang voice as he pointed to a girl in the front row but suddenly a group of boys who seems to be a popular group came barging in soon, the squeal of tons of fan girls on the class was heard.

"Kokoroyome and company, it's the first day of class and you don't even bother to show up early, hump." Narumi pouted but quickly gained his old self.

Koko's POV

"Sorry bout' that sensei, got a lot of work to do. " I said replying to our advisors childish antics hehe. I was about to go quietly now to my seat but a stunning angel came in sight. Well me being me, I am not a playboy but I'm gonna grab the chance to get her.

End of Koko's POV

Mikan, feeling the intense stare that someone was giving her she felt the shivers running across her body. Seconds later, the boy he bumped with came in and as usual his big glasses covering his eyes complete with the uniform done messily.

Mikan's POV

"Hey isn't that the boy I met a little while ago, yey we're both on the same class' I wish we could be friends. " I thought while smiling. My river of thoughts about the school year was interrupted when I was called to introduce myself in front together with Hotaru.

End of Mikan's POV

"Ohayou everyone, I'm Mikan Sakura, please to meet you all." Mikan greeted the class with a big smile on her face not noticing the obvious stares of the two boys while mentally saying "So that's her name." Hotaru being the smart one notice it and declared, "Hotaru Imai, don't dare to mess with me if you still want to see some light."

Their day started like that and finally they went on to their own respective classes after they heard the bell ring.

The following day...

While Mikan was passing the gates of her school he see him again, the boy whom she clash with yesterday. She walk near him and say, "Um eto, good morning to you, I'm the one you encountered yesterday. Hi, what's your name by the way?" she asked him. He was about to reply when a certain dirty blond boy interrupted them.

"Hey, Sakura-san right? Can you please come with me?" said Kokoroyome to Mikan. She was really on the verge of finding the name of that boy but someone beat her to it, she was already being dragged by her classmate.

"Um, so Kokoroyome-kun, what's up?" being kind as always, she just let go of the fact that he was the reason why she didn't figure out the four-eyed boy's name.

"Well I was just wondering if..." Kokoroyome said nervously.

"If what?" Mikan said waiting for his answer.

"If you could go out with me and be my girlfriend." Kokoroyome finally finished his sentence. Mikan was surprise at the statement no scratch that well freak out and shocked but thinking this could be her chance to finally find her one and only soul mate said, "Sure Kokoroyome-kun." Mikan replied to him.

"Call me Koko, Sakura-san." "I'll call you that but please call me Mikan, I don't like formalities hehe."

"Well, see you tomorrow then?" Koko said as he run along.

"Sure, good bye then." She said smiling and running towards Hotaru.

When she finally reach Hotaru, somehow Hotaru knew already what's up with her. "What was that about?" Hotaru asked her to confirm her sources. "Oh! About that, Koko-kun had just confessed to me." Mikan said unaware of what she did.

"What? Are you serious? He confessed to you? And wait let me guess you say yes. " Hotaru said with her voice rising towards Mikan.

"Woah! That's an expected reaction and yes I accepted it besides I won't lose anything if I accept his confession, right?" The brunette replied.

"Well, you're right, you're not gonna lose anything, but be careful ok?" Hotaru said feeling concerned for her best friend even if she has that stoic facade of hers. She may agree at her but the last part of her sentence was not an opinion, request, suggestion or even an advice but more like an order.

"Yeah, sure" Mikan replied to her.

On the other hand...

The mysterious boy who Mikan always encounters saw everything and felt sad for some unknown reason. The boy, slightly feeling a pang on his chest as he looks and unconsciously not realizing that he was already thinking "I wish I was the one who confess to Mikan that time."
