Gakuen Alice: No title(yet)

Mikan's POV

During the war with the ESP, Natsume and I got together. Now that I think about it, we were together maybe because we needed each other then; to stand strong, together against the ESP but after the war ended it seem to me our relationship is as good as gone too.

Currently Natsume had kept our relationship as it is. Normal dates, hangout, on and off he will give me light kisses on the forehead and that's that. Nothing more. He doesn't kiss me, he constantly treats me like his 'guy' buddy, he doesn't bother to call me when I'm sick, he doesn't even call my name heck he doesn't say I love you…. That was all I wanted to hear. Three words that I wanted to hear him say himself, in front of me, I love you but it never came.

Its Gakuen Alice last Christmas ball for me and I'm finally giving up on our so call relationship. Sure I loved him more than anyone could imagine, but he doesn't. Therefore I'll leave him so that he doesn't have to carry me as a burden. During the war I had given him enough trouble, I will not repeat that. Although I like to recall back the happy memories we had together before the war broke out. The time we spent under our sakura tree, we talked literally about the stupidest stuff but that's all we needed. Each others company, we didn't need to be the same. We just need each other but that's not what he needs anymore.

The Christmas ball

All the seniors were having a blast at the party. It's called a ball but reality it looks like a bunch of teenagers gone wild. Definitely an awesome ball.

Sumire and Koko were in the center of the spot light dancing their hearts away. Anna, Nonoko, Yuu and Mochu were happily dancing to the beat right beside them. Hotaru was eating crab as usual while scanning the crowd for her baka best friend who seemed to have disappeared. Usually she would be in the center of all this parties. Ruka was doing about the same thing as the Ice Queen. His best friend seems to have gone missing too.

"Where are you Natsume?" Ruka mumbled to himself. He gave the ball room another scan only to end up face to face with the Ice Queen. Ruka gulped. Throughout his whole life in Gakuen Alice it was never a good thing if the Ice Queen personally comes up to you.

"Where did your bake friend take my baka best friend?" Hotaru asked coldly. Seeing no answer from him, she held up a picture. Ruka took one look at that and splutter the only place he could think of, the sakura tree. Satisfied the Ice Queen dragged him with her to the said destination.

"By the way, if they are not there your pictures might end up on e-bay or maybe on the school bulletin board with irremovable glue." Hotaru said with a sly smile. Ruka could only pray the said bake friends were at the sakura tree.

"Natsume, Mikan, please be at the sakura tree" he silently prayed while being dragged.

The sakura tree

"Mikan? Why?" the boy with dazzling crimson eyes and midnight dark hair.

The brunette with charming hazel eyes just gave him a ghost smile. Her crestfallen face was carefully hidden behind the veil of her hair.

"Its over, Natsu. It's not like you ever loved for real. No worries you can tell the other you broke up with me because you got bored."Mikan said smoothly.

Natsume just stared at Mikan, emotions were rushing to him but none was getting through to her.

"Mikan, what are you saying? I love you, more than you know. Did any of the fans say something to you?" Natsume tried to reason out with her. No he had to reason out with her. Why is she saying this out of the blue?

Mikan just shook her head, ignoring all he had to say.

"Please let's end this nice and clean. No messy break ups alright? Goodbye Natsu. I'll be leaving tomorrow for….well I'll be leaving tomorrow. Take care of yourself alright?" she said while stepping away from him.

Natsume's POV

She is leaving tomorrow? Why? What is going on? Damn it what the heck did I do to make her want to leave?

"Wait, that's not fair. At least tell me why? This makes absolutely no sense to me." I said. It was the least I could do to make her stay while I settle my jumble thoughts.

She blinked her eyes and cocked her head to the side, the cute reaction which I have always loved. "There are no such things as fair in this world Natsu. No I don't have to explain cause you know why, you just can't accept it."

What the hell is she talking about? We had finally had some time to our self after the war. It's only been 4 months, and things have been going smoothly. Well other than me not knowing how to face her after I … was that the reason?

I looked up to ask but only to find no one. She was gone. That's right Natsume, a Hyuga doesn't need anyone but himself. I used to think that was true until I met her, Mikan Sakura. The girl that took my heart and never returned it. Now I'm left heartless and broken. My legs gave way and I fell hard. Definitely I fell hard. Mikan Sakura what the hell have you done to me?

Unknown by the broken couple Hotaru and Ruka was in the bushes near by. They heard the whole conversation. Ruka's face couldn't hold back the shock but Hotaru had her calm face on.

"What the hell do you think you are doing Sakura Mikan?" Hotaru mumbled to herself.

"Let's go bunny boy, shows over. No on second thought the show has just began." Hotaru said while pulling Ruka away from their hiding spot.

As they turned to leave they heard one scream of agony, "Natsume?" Ruka though.

"I'm sorry Natsu"
