Smile for me

It was on my second year in college when I was introduced to this person. Two years had passed by, I can't even remember why, and how did it happen. However, I don't care anymore. He can simply annoy me just by flashing me his goofy smile and doing crazy antics. He's a pervert (well, it's my opinion). And that airhead I'm talking about is coming to my way now.
"Hey! Good mornin', Miss Sunshine!"
He greeted me with his usual goofy smile. I mentally slapped my head. Why do I have to meet this person at this time of the day? What sin have I committed to be punished like this early in the morning! Oh Creator of heaven and earth, forgive me but why have you ever created this being in front of me? Is his purpose is to annoy me to death? Ugh. I have to face this idiot for the nth time in my life. Anyways, I need to take only a few more months before I can finally graduate, leave this academy, and never see that lunatic man. Calm down. Inhale… exhale. Good. Now…
"Well, mornin' to you too."
He just grinned at me, he held my hand, and we walked together to class. I was surprised by this and somewhat felt butterflies in my stomach but I just shrugged it off. It's nothing at all.
Oh. His name? He's Natsume. And me? I'm Mikan.
When we reached the classroom, some rumormongers were eyeing us. Well, they have found some 'juicy' bits by us holding hands while walking in the room. Their mouths were non-stop chatting while their eyes were glued to our hands. How pathetic they are. Just because a girl and a guy walked hand in hand doesn't mean that they have a more than friends relationship. Gosh, they're so narrow minded! Just then, the bell rang signaling for classes to start. Time passed by and then the next thing I knew, the day had ended.
Natsume ran up to me and offered to walk me home since his way was the same as mine. Along the way, he was teasing me non-stop. I wanted to push him to the middle of the street to be run off by cars but I didn't. Thank goodness, I still have my sanity and conscience all these times. He was busy teasing me 'bout how my hair will look like if it was really curly and red when he suddenly stopped and held my hand and began to run. My mind began to race. I didn't know what was happening. Why did he run? I was very eager to bombard him with questions when he just stopped. He looked at me with a refreshing smile painted on his face. It was the first time I saw him smile like that. It was so charming and… Wait! What am I saying? Natsume? Charming? They don't rhyme! My face felt hot. I averted my eyes to what was in front of us. I was mesmerized by the scenic view of the lake. The water was crystal clear and it shined like diamonds under the setting sun. There were dandelions, roses and sunflowers around us. It was like the Garden of Eden. A garden that is untouchable and pure. I can't find any other words to describe it. It was completely breath taking. I was so captivated by the place that I've forgotten Natsume. I came back to reality when he pinched both sides of my cheeks. I lightly punched him. He just chuckled. Then he looked at the lake that was turning from azure to a burning red orange. His face was so serious. I just looked at him wondering of what was he thinking at that moment and why did he dragged me here. Natsume looked at me straight in the eyes. I felt my face flushed. I don't know how long our staring contest had last. I broke it. I looked back at the lake. I wanted to ask him so many things but I was lost for words. I got out of my dazed state when Natsume broke free of my hand and knelt down on one knee while looking up at me. I wondered what this was about so I started to open my mouth but he cut me off. He then asked me to be his girlfriend. I flushed an even darker shade and bowed my head. What's this all about? I can't comprehend what he said. Me, be his girlfriend? When hell freezes! However, why do I feel my heart beating rampantly? It's like swelling inside me and ready to burst any moment now.
