"Time is too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear, too long for those who grieve, too short for those who rejoice, but for those who love, time is eternity. "
Chapter 1: She and he
-x-x-x-
It was currently September in Japan and all the people are doing their own businesses. Some were at the office, others were at the mall and the rest were just at home with their family. One of them is the Sakura family. It was already 5:00 in the afternoon when---
"Dad?" a girl named Mikan Sakura said. "Yes dear?" answered her father while sipping his coffee. "What does it feel when you're in love?" she asked innocently. Her father spitted the coffee into his shirt and said "Oh my! Mikan tell me who's this unlucky boy?! I need to talk to and-"."Dad! Calm down, I was just asking because you never let me date with anyone else and many boys have courted me already." Mikan said as she pouted. "Mikan, dear. You will know it yourself when you grow up. You'll feel it for sure." Her dad said while smiling. "You have said it so many times Dad, and I'm already 15 and I don't know what this love really is?!" her dad just sweatdropped at her pouting daughter.
They were currently at the living room waiting for the dinner. The Sakura family is composed of Yuka Sakura, the beloved mother who loves to cook. She's a happy-go-lucky woman and a very beautiful mom too. Next is the father, Yukihara Sakura, a very protective and cheerful one who loves his family very much. Mikan Sakura, a beautiful, happy-go-lucky daughter of Yuka and Yukihara and the last is Youichi Sakura, a cool and handsome son of both of them too.
"Dad, I'm sure that the boys who courted Mikan-nee are so blind. They didn't see how ugly she was." Youichi said in a bored tone. Their father just laughed causing Mikan to explode. "You! Idiotic brother! Just because you perfect the math quiz doesn't mean that you're smart!". "Well, what do you expect from me, I'm good at math unlike you." Youichi smirk. It's true; Mikan is good at any subject except for Math, while Youichi is the opposite of her who is really good at math but not good in history though.
"It's time for dinner!" Yuka, their mom shouted from the kitchen. Mikan was first to stand up and gave Youichi a death glare. "What ugly?" Youichi asked while smirking. "Humph!"

The morning came and Mikan was currently sleeping having a very beautiful dream. Youichi, who was asked to wake up her sister, was very annoyed. He knocked on Mikan's door but no used, he then entered her room and found her sleeping peacefully on her pink room. Youichi sighed, "Another deafening morning." He thought. "Mikan-nee! Wake up! It's already 7:30 for God's sake!" Youichi shouted, Mikan opened her eyes slowly and "You-chan! You just ruined my dream! My prince charming was about to kiss me but then-! Argh!"." I don't care about your dream! And ugly, you only have 30 minutes to prepare, idiot! Damn, I think I lose my hearing" he said as he exited Mikan's room.
Mikan went to bathroom immediately to take a bath as she realized that there's only 30 minutes to prepare for school. She then changed to her middle School Gakuen Alice uniform which was a black jacket with a symbol of Gakuen Alice at the left, long sleeve polo beneath it with a checkered blue ribbon and a checkered blue skirt. She combed her auburn hair and let it down. She picked up her small pink backpack, sprayed some strawberry perfume in her and checked herself once more in the mirror. She's definitely gorgeous; no wonder why there are a lot of boys who is courting her.
She went downstairs and bade goodbye to her parents. "Mikan, are you not going to eat your breakfast?" her mom said. "No mom, I need to go now." Mikan smiled. "Okay, take care." Mikan got her car key in the pocket and entered her Black Mercedes Benz S-class car.

"Koko!" Mikan shouted as she approached his best friend. "Oh Mikan!" Koko smiled then hugged Mikan. Kokoroyomi, one of Mikan's best friends. A very cheerful and protective cute boy to Mikan, loves to tell jokes and always there whenever Mikan is sad. "You know what Koko, that idiotic brother of mine just ruined my dream!" Mikan said while pouting. "What was your dream then?" Koko asked while smiling. "My prince charming." Mikan replied and Koko just sweat dropped. "Oh! It's Hotaru!" Mikan said happily. Hotaru Imai, Mikan's best friend too. A girl who loves money and blackmailing, a mean but caring best friend. Mikan proceeded to hug Hotaru but ---
SMACK
But was smack in the head by Hotaru. "Ouch! It hurts Hotaru!" Mikan whined as she rubbed her head. "Don't ever hug me idiot." Hotaru said calmly. "Why???"."Because I don't want to." She replied. "What the?! You are so mean Hotaru!" Mikan shouted. "Do you want another smack?" Hotaru asked with evil smile. Koko just sweat dropped and Mikan gulped. "N-no."
-x-x-x-
It was already dismissal. Hotaru was busy reviewing for the upcoming quiz bee; Koko has a meeting in Soccer club. That leaves Mikan alone. She was currently walking in the School's garden and found a Sakura tree; she decided to take a rest under its falling leaves while waiting for her best friends. She hums a very beautiful tune but-
"What do you think you're doing here little girl?" an unfamiliar voice said. Mikan looked up to see a boy of her age, has a black hair with piercing crimson eyes and a very good-looking face. "I'm seating here, can't you see?" Mikan said innocently. "I know idiot! I mean, what are you doing here? This place is mine." The boy said. "Who says it's yours? No one owns this." Mikan pouted. "Argh! I'm wasting my saliva. Just leave! I want to rest." 'I'm resting too." Seeing that there's no point of arguing, the boy just jumped from the branch of the tree and walked away. "Hey! Where are you going?" Mikan asked. "Away from you. You just ruined the peace." The boy replied. "Oh Sorry! Can you at least tell me your name? I'm Mikan Sakura." she said." It seems that no one is listening awhile ago eh?" the boy said, Mikan was confused. "Why? What listening?" Mikan asked. "Idiot! I'm Hyuuga Natsume, your new classmate and seatmate." Natsume said and walked with his hand on his pocket. Mikan just blinked her eye.
-x-x-x-
"AND can you believe it! He called me idiot!" Mikan said as she pout. "Well, it's your fault baka; you aren't listening awhile ago when Narumi introduced them." Hotaru said. "Them?" Mikan asked. "Yes Mikan, we have two new students, Natsume Hyuuga and Ruka Nogi." Koko explained. "Why you didn't tell me?! I didn't have a chance to welcome them! How stupid I am!" Mikan whined. Koko just laugh and Hotaru just rolled her eyes. "Bye now Mikan!" Koko said. "Bye Koko!" Mikan said as she hugged him. "Bye Hotaru!" they both said after the hug and they entered their own cars.
Meanwhile from afar…
"Who is that girl with auburn hair Ruka?" Natsume asked. "Oh, it's Mikan Sakura. The campus sweetheart." Ruka Nogi replied. "Campus sweetheart huh?" Natsume thought. "See ya Natsume." Ruka said as he entered his car. "See ya." Natsume replied and entered his car too.
