Chapter 1: -A SWEET BEGINNING-
Every Jack has his Jill,
Every white hath its black,
And every sweet it's sour.
She clipped her hair and let a part of her hair loose as its small edges form magnificent honey-brown locks that match her brown orbs. Locking her onyx pendant she took one last glance at the mirror and set off to have her last meal at the Sakura Manor.
"Mikan" squealed her mother in delight.
"Mom" she replied, and then hugged her.
"Come Mi-chan, let's eat, we're having a small celebration since it's your last supper with us." Ms. Sakura exclaimed.
"Ma you shouldn't have, I'll just be a couple of hours awa-"Mikan's jaw dropped. Their whole King-sized table was filled with people, from her Father to her Aunt 'till her youngest niece. Everyone was present.
"Ah princess, you've finally arrived. Come, come, bon appetit." invited her father.
She sighed as she bowed curtsy at everyone and flashed her ever-infamous smile to all making their hearts with delight.
Mikan sat at her usual post and noticed a blonde man with shining purple eyes.
He looked at Mikan.
"Bonsoir mademoiselle" Narumi said kissing her hand. Mikan Chuckled. "Bonsoir Monsieur, comment t'appelles-tu?" (what's your name?") she asked.
"Je m'apple Narumi, your soon-to-be teacher at the Alice Academy." Narumi replied.
"Ah Narumi-sensie, please do enjoy your time" Mikan smiled returning to her meal. "Yes thank you" kind, smart, and charming a real treasure indeed he thought inwardly.
After a few minutes…
"Well, shall we get going Mikan-chan?" Narumi asked. Mikan nodded. She baded her mother and father goodbye. "Do you have everything ready? Your clothes and things.?" Her mother asked.
"Yes la mére" (mother) she replied. "Princess" her father interrupted "Take care Au revoir"
"Au revoir papy" she said then left.
The chauffeur opened the car door and ushered Mikan and Narumi inside the black limousine bearing the Sakura clan crest.
The trip took three hours, but it seemed to pass quickly as Narumi and Mikan entertained each other thru jokes and stories. It was 9 o' clock when they finally reached the academy and Mikan was brought to her special-star room.
"Good night Mikan-chan. I'll be escorting you to your class tomorrow at 7:30 am. "
"Arigatou Narumi-sensie." And he left.
After a quick shower she wore her pink nightgown and laid down her queen-sized to proceed ti her deep and peaceful slumber. So it seems.
A couple of hours later. "Damn, I can't sleep." She cursed. Mikan grabbed her emerald bathrobe and proceeded outside for some fresh air. "uh..E-to… I know it's here somewhere" she whispered to herself "Ah here it is" and she sat down below the Sakura trees and began to read a book.
Meanwhile…
Hmp, who could be at my post at this time of hour a certain raven-haired thought inwardly as he drew nearer to the Sakura tree where Mikan sat. It's her, what is she doing here? He asked himself. I wonder if she's still angry at me?
"Get out, I know your there Hyuuga" she said emotionlessly. He revealed himself from where he was hiding and sneered. "What are you doing here?"
"To ruin you and you're brother's life." Was her cold reply.
Ouch, so after six years she's still angry thought the hurt Natsume, though his outer appearance did not show it. "Hn, whatever" and he sat.
Emotionless as ever "Bastard" she hissed heading back to her room.
Ouch
-THE NEXT DAY-
"Ohaiyo my dear students" Narumi signaled the class to be silent. "today we have a new student from the Alice Academy of America."
Everybody silenced, as Mikan entered the room wearing her smile and the usual Academy uniform. Boys drooled at her curvaceously hot body and her pretty face and her outstanding smile.
"Bonjour! Ohaiyo gazaimas, I am Sakura Mikan, a transferee from the Alice Academy of America. I am half French and half Japanese." And with a curtsy bow she finished her statement with a "pleased to make your acquaintance" statement and a smile.
The boys who drooled earlier blushed deep red, as the class started whispering things like "Is she the Sakura Mikan?"
"The daughter of the rich Sakura, yes I think she is."
"Wow, she's pretty"
"I wonder if I can ask her out?"
"She's pretty, smart, charming, and courteous."
"She's perfect."
"Class settle down" Narumi exclaimed. "HO-TA-RU!!" waved Mikan as she caught sight of her best friend who in return ignored her completely. She pouted like a child making all her soon to be fanclub members blush dark maroon. All except Natsume, Yuichi his young adopted brother, and Ruka.
"Very well then miss Sakura. Why don't you take a seat near Natsume over there?" said Narumi. Mikan frowned.
"Eh, Narumi-sensie, remember the idiot we've been laughing about yesterday, it's Natsume."
Natsume twitched.
"Oh" Narumi chuckled "in that case where do you want to sit then?" he asked.
Plenty of hands were raised desperately wishing that Mikan would pick them. Mikan looked at Hotaru who glared at her "Uhm can I sit next to Ruka-pyon?" Ruka lifted his head in shock.
"Ok then class since preparations for the festival is being held, today will be a free day." Narumi then left the room with rejoicing students.
"Ruka-pyon, ohaiyo!" Mikan said then hugged her childhood friend, making him blush scarlet making Natsume burn with jealousy but still maintained to keep his composure.
CLICK CLICK CLICK came Hotaru and her camera capturing shots of the blushing Ruka.
"Stop it, Imai" said the embarrassed Ruka.
"Hota-chan, cheese!" said Mikan making a peace sign with her right arm and her head rested on Ruka's shoulder. (AW!)
Ruka blushed even more as Hotaru was happily capturing every angle of Ruka and Mikan. And Natsume on the other hand was burning with intense jealousy. (Imagine Natsume in a dark background, bangs covering his eyes, with matching jealous calligraphy signs whispering behind him.)
"Hey, Polka dots, Shut up" he said. Mikan glared at him. "Oh sorry were we disturbing your beauty sleep?" she mocked.
"Hn" he replied "what have you been telling Narumi?" he asked but she wasn't listening.
"Oi" he shouted.
"Comment?" (Pardon?) she replied monotonously.
"I said what have-" he said irritation trailed his voice.
Baby I love you and I'll never let you go
But if I have to boy I guess that you should know
All the…
"Salut?" Mikan answered her phone "Ah, Bonjour Henrique Ça va?"
"Ah, Comme ci, Comme ci, d'aujourd'hui en huit" (A week from today) she said
Natsume went back to his manga but secretly listened to Mikan and this mysterious Henrique's conversation. What the heck! Who is this Henrique? Don't he dare touch my Mikan he thought inwardly.
"L'etudiant liecole elementair Alice Academei" she said
"Au revoir Henrique"
"Au revoir Mikan , Je t'aime" the husky voice of Henrique said.
"Je t'aime" she replied, then hung up.
Je t'aime (I love you) what the hell? Natsume cursed, making him boil with anger and jealousy.
"Mikan-chan, who was that?" Ruka asked in deep concern.
"I love you huh? So you finally got together ei?" Hotaru hissed.
"Ne, ne, Ruka-pyon, Hotaru-chan. Didn't I tell you about Henrique my boyfriend." She said shyly.
Kusso! Henrique you'll die Natsume cursed. Natsume took Yuichi by the arm and went towards the door.
"Watakshi wa Kirate Anata, Hyuuga" (I hate you, Hyuuga) she said in a serious tone "I challenge you to a duel."
Natsume looked at her. "You'll never win"
"Hontou?" she replied monotonously "Coward"
Oh no, Natsume reached his patience limit, he turned to face Mikan and said "Fine, when, where?"
"Later three o' clock, school dojo" she replied staring at him, eyes filled with hatred.
"Hn, but if you loose you'll be my girl for a week" he bargained. "and if you loose, you'll be my slave for a week." She returned the bargain. "I'll not loose, Hyuuga"
He smirked "Whatever" he turned his back on Mikan "Oh and don't be late raspberries or is it la framboise in French" he left.
How did he? Mikan thought "Oh no, he did not!" she thought out loud
"SHIMATE NATSUME YOU HENTAI!" she shouted.
This is where, Natsume met his Jill
When the black met its white
And the sweet…the sour.
