Close to You
"BYEEEE!!" screamed Mikan at the airport. Sure, she was going to miss Natsume and all, but she was certain that they were going to get married one day and start a family. Although she WAS a bit jealous that Natsume could go to Paris and not her...
3 YEARS LATER...
Mikan waited by the door to her old, worndown house. She was anxious to see her soon-to-be husband walk through the door. She waited all day, but he never came. By 6 PM she was sobbing her eyes out, and then Ruka came walking in. He caught sight of Mikan, and desperately wanted to help. But Ruka didnt need to ask her what was wrong, because when Mikan saw him, she was bawling and ran towards him, yeah, he was surprised, but he'd a crush on her for, what? Like 10 years already? So Ruka stayed there for most of the night, comferting Mikan in his arms. After all, he wanted to see her happy and hyper, not in wreck like she was now.
Mikan apologized for her weird behaviour and explained why she was crying like that. And now, Ruka was jealous. Jealous of why she like Natsume instead of him, jealous of why he couldnt win over Mikan's heart, and jealous of why he couldnt be a bad-boy like him. But that didnt stop him getting what he wanted, and what he wanted right now was Mikan.
THE NEXT DAY...
Mikan lay there thinking, thinking like she never thought before (has she ever thought before?) She tried contacting Natsume, but no one answered. She tried sending letters, but there were no replies, until she came accross "Yellowpages" (Iknow, its lame, but I cant think right now.)She used the search engine to find out Natsume's place where he's staying. "The Buxton Hotel. Isnt that in America or something?" thought Mikan. So thats where she went, with Ruka and Hotaru, of course.
A FEW DAYS LATER...(and then they arrive)
They rented 2 rooms, one for Mikan and Hotaru and one for Ruka. Then they saw Nuatsume, being cool as usual...with another girl!And another, and another, and another...(I guess hes a player) So Mikan chased after him, as usual.
"Whoah, don't touch me!!" Natsume screamed at Mikan. He changed a lot over the past 3 years. And suddenly it all came back to him. The laughter, the departure to Paris, and Mikan. But he couldnt abandon all of those pretty girls surrounding him. So he pretended he didnt know her. "sorry, I dont know you." Then,he left.( So straightforward...)
LATER IN THE NIGHT...
Mikan was wandering the long, dark halls, and bumped into a tall figure. It was Natsume and he suddenly grabbed her and took her into his room...
