Authoress' Note: This is going to be a tragic fanfic with some humor and romance in it. I hope you like it, if not then please do not read this at all. Please review at the end.

Disclaimer: I don't own gakuen alice, but I do own this plot. :)

It was another ordinary day in the Alice Academy. It was already about 4 years since Mikan joined the academy. Mikan already earned 2 stars and Hotaru still has 3 stars. Mikan continues to be a jolly, cheerful, annoying girl (or should I say teenager) that won't stop mailing her grandpa letters; while Hotaru maintains her not so expressive attitude and the talent to earn money from special persons. Also, since they're already 14 years old, their uniforms are color blue and not red anymore. The change of uniform made Mikan a little bit more mature, but nothing has change about her, except for being taller like the others.
And today was yet another ordinary day, but this time something was kind of missing.
RING!

The class has ended and Mikan was about to hang with Hotaru and the others.

"Thank God! I thought classes would never end!" Mikan said cheerfully. She was filled with joy yet again, because classes have ended and today was Friday.

"That's what you always say whenever class ends." Hotaru replied.

"You feel more jumpy today, Mikan." Iichou noticed.

"Ignore her, she's always jumpy." Hotaru noted.

"Well I feel jumpy because today's Friday, and I want to go to Central Town tomorrow!" Mikan said ignoring Hotaru's statement.

"But don't you need Natsume for that? I mean, he is still your partner up to now." Ruka asked holding a baby bunny.

"Yeah… I have to ask him later…" Mikan replied in a gloomy way. "Oh yeah, speaking of Natsume, where is he?"

"I don't know actually…" Ruka answered her question.

"Well this is kind of rare, Natsume skipping class." Mikan said while crossing her arms.

"I guess so, but there must be a good reason." Ruka stated defending Natsume.

"Hm… There must be, because the teachers didn't even ask, wondered or actually cared that Natsume is absent today. I guess his excused." Iichou added.

"I know!" Mikan shouted while jumping in front of them. "Why won't we visit Natsume?"

Hotaru just gave a sigh putting her hand on her face as if saying there will be a big commotion later on.

The four of them went to Natsume's room, but it seems the door was lock. At first Mikan knocked like any other knock, but then she got impatient and knocked at the door very hard. Mikan was about to knock the door broken when Hotaru shot her baka gun at her.

"Ouch! Why did you-"

"Move out of the way." Hotaru cut Mikan and moved her out of the way while she whispered the word idiot, referring to Mikan of course. And in minutes the door was open.

"Another invention of Hotaru, I guessed." Mikan thought to herself.

When the 4 of them entered, Mikan was awestruck. Natsume's room was like a room in a hotel. Being the special honor student and all, it was no wonder that his room was incredible. A mini living room at the entrance, a small kitchen at the right side and the bedroom with a king-size bed at the left side, and at the corner of the living room was the bathroom. You can also see some beautiful decorations and some expensive painting. What makes the room even more beautiful is the scent of his room, which smelled like various beautiful flowers, and the 2 chandeliers hanging in his room.
They saw a sleeping Natsume in the bedroom, and after seeing this, Mikan just jumped on his bed trying to wake him up.

"Hey you slacker! Wake up and give us the reason why you are still sleeping!" Mikan shouted on Natsume's ear.

Natsume didn't answer at all, as if he was in deep slumber. After being ignored, Mikan can't stop herself but grab Natsume's shirt and slap him with her other hand.

"Hey you lazy butt, wake up!"

The other three tried to stop Mikan but they just can't do anything, even Hotaru's baka gun can't stop Mikan's anger, her immature anger.

"Shut up…" Natsume said but can be barely heard by Mika.

"What? Did you say something Natsume?" Mikan asked getting closer at Natsume.

"I said shut up!" Natsume shouted standing up on his bed.

"Why I ought to-" Natsume fainted before Mikan can finish her sentence.

"Natsume? Natsume. Natsume!" Mikan once again shouted.

"Mikan, stop shouting at Natsume. Ruka, carry Natsume on my "duck". Hotaru commanded.

Ruka did what Hotaru just said, and the others went inside the "duck". Hotaru drove or should I say flew the duck inside the hospital, while Mikan just sat beside Natsume, feeling guilty because of what she did.

"Don't worry Mikan, I'm sure that Natsume will just be alright." Iichou comforted Mikan.

"Yeah, you're right. Thank you Iichou." Mikan then smiled a fake smile. She just can't believe what Iichou just said, because she could still remember the 4thform of theability's formof the Alice.

The four of them were placed to wait outside of Natsume's room in the hospital. Then the doctor came out of the room.

"Doctor, what's wrong with Natsume? Is he alright? How is he? Please tell us!" Mikan cried at the doctor, not letting him say anything, which made him sweat dropped, while Mikan held the doctor, shaking him as if something will drop if she shake him so hard.

"Mikan, if you keep on doing that the doctor won't able to speak." Hotaru scolded Mikan drinking her hot coffee.

"Oh… I'm sorry doctor." Mikan said letting go of the doctor's sleeves.

"Ahem, thank you. Mr. Natsume was over fatigue and his sudden faint is normal. Being in bed for awhile is much needed." The doctor said making it very clear, and then walked away.

"But what is the reason for him to be over fatigued?" Mikan once again asked. But it seems the doctor ignored her and continued to walk away.

"You should calm down now, Mikan. Natsume's fine now, he only need is some rest." Hotaru reassured.

"But…" Mikan protested.

"Mikan…" Hotaru called with a little worry calling her name.

"But then, how can I go to CENTRAL TOWN TOMORROW?" Mikan replied with waterfall tears.

(--iii) was the face plastered on the three's face.

Note: The duck in the story is another invention of Hotaru. You can say it is like a car, but much bigger and it can fly. It is designed to look like a duck and also it can transform to a mini duck so you can bring it anywhere, very handy!

Authoress' Note: Obviously, this is not a one-shot fic and this will continue. Just to give you a warning, Natsume will not die. This is a tragic story for another reason. Also, please review on what you think about this fic. Please point out my grammatic and spelling errors. I really appreciate your criticisms.
