Me: Hey everyone, I'm here with a new story!

Mikan: Oh yay! I hope I don't die in this one!

Me: … We'll see about that…

Natsume: Why is the baka always get hurt?

Me: I don't know. What, you wanna feel pain?

Natsume: Did I say that, Yuuki.

Mikan: Why does he call you, your name and not mine??!

Me: Coz he doesn't like calling another girl 'Hyuuga.' Since that's his name too. Anyway, there's probably one girl he won't mind being called Hyuuga.

Mikan: Who?

Me: We'll see. Enjoy the story! R&R!

Mikan Sakura was a piano prodigy. She started when she was 12 years old, performed at many shows and won many competitions. Mikan wrote songs that made people stop and listen when they hear the complexity and its melody in them. But why does she play the piano? What or who was her inspiration? No one knew. Was it in her blood or her parents' influence? Maybe both. The Sakuras were famous for their musical skill. Mikan's parents, Yukihara Sakura and Yuka Azumi were one of the best violinist and flutist ever. Mikan played the piano at a young age and got the hang of it in less than a week. In a year, she had surpassed her teacher and pianists in her city. She became the city's most beautiful and skilled pianist. Mikan represented her city in many competitions and performances. Alice Academy was one of the schools who had offered her a full scholarship for her skill. But her parents who were respectful of Mikan's wishes, let her stay at Melody High School, where her best friends went. Hotaru Imai, the 'Ice Queen' played the clarinet, Anna Umenomiya played the flute and Nonoko Ogasawara played the violin. Alice Academy was the four of them became friends. It was also where Mikan met Natsume, her saviour and first love.

Flashback

The 1st of January was besides being New Years, was Mikan's birthday, when she should be happy which she was… Mikan was to perform today at the Alice Performance Awards 2009. Her parents were coming to see her perform.

Backstage, Mikan was nervous and waited for her parents to wish her luck but no one came except her friends. During her performance, a familiar tune of 'Boys & Girls' played. Mikan who was playing looked at her phone beside her. It was from the Tokyo Police, during one of the rests, she clicked onto the message. Her eyes widened with shock and fear. A scream could be heard, Mikan ran out. Her parents have been involved in a car crash and had been killed. She ran to her favourite place, the sakura tree. Her friends went onto stage and looked at her phone; they too felt sad for Mikan's parents' death. They also knew she needed time alone and did not run after her… Well, Anna and Nonoko did but were pulled back by Hotaru who was shaking her head at Mikan's direction.

Mikan cried for hours by the sakura tree. Unknown to her, Natsume Hyuuga who was sleeping on the branches of the tree, woke up and heard her cry. Natsume Hyuuga was the most popular and attractive boy at Melody High. He was perfect in every aspect even personality. Natsume looked down at the person who had woken him to find Sakura Mikan crying. Judging from the tone of her sobs and the colours of her eyes, Natsume guessed that something painful had happen. He jumped down right in front of her. It surprised Mikan, she looked up. He crouched down and wrapped her arms around her without a word. Mikan relaxed into his arms and cried. Natsume whispered soft, peaceful things into her ears. She calmed down and hugged him. Even though Natsume was oblivious to the situation, she felt that she could trust him. Natsume held her away from him for a second and smiled. It wasn't his usual smirk, a true smile of sympathy. Mikan was stunned by his smile, her tears dried up. The corners of her mouth twitched for a second. Mikan gave him one last hug and look before she leant in and kissed him on the cheek. She sprinted off to the distance while Natsume just stood there and rubbed his cheek as if imprinting it permanently.

End of Flashback

One week later, Mikan was found again by the Sakura tree with her best friends. She felt guilty that it was because her parents were on the way to her piano concert, that piano and herself was the ones to blame. Her best friends were trying to convince her not to quit piano because it was her life. (A/N: Hotaru excluded, she was too busy with the crab brains) Mikan was sad that her friends didn't see the situation from her point of view, they got into a fight resulting Mikan running away and heading for the streets. She tried to run as far as she can away from them, her tears blurred her vision. A car swerving was heard before a crash and screams.

Mikan Sakura had been hit. Screams of terror were heard, everything was a blur. Everyone from the nearby streets and Melody High School came to see what the commotion was about. In their eyes, a lifeless Mikan lay in front of them. Her white high school uniform was soaked in blood. Her friends screamed and fainted.

Mikan was delivered to the hospital and operated on; the doctors were trying their best to revive the piano prodigy. Outside the operation room, her friends hugged each other of guilt. It was partly their fault as they cried. Suddenly, the light of the operation room turned green. Mikan's operation was finished. The doctors came out with an unconscious Mikan. They had grave expressions on their faces. The friends feared for the worst.

'Mikan Sakura will be fine; she just suffered a critical impact force on her brain. She will lose her abilities and forget to do some things. Her personality will also be changed through what she went through emotionally and physically. We are happy to say, her appearance and her body is fine. Also, she has lost some of her memories, so don't be surprised when she doesn't recognise you. It will take some time for Ms Sakura to regain her skills and remember who she is. You may now see her.' The doctors had said. Her friends followed the doctors to room 1412. There, Mikan laid her eyes empty and emotionless. The sight of people drawing closer made her turn to them. Mikan smiled at them and patted the seats next to her.

'Hotaru, Anna, Nonoko.' She mouthed at them.

'Mikan… You lost your voice!' Anna said, eyes widened.

'Don't worry, it'll come back.' Mikan said.

'How are you feeling?'

'I'm alright. I heard the doctors tell you about my memory lost. I can't remember what happened from my birthday till now. How did I end up in the hospital?' Mikan asked. (A/N: They're using Hotaru's invention to understand what she's saying.)

'We had a fight about you quitting piano, then you ran off to the streets and… a-and…' Nonoko started crying and sobbing as Anna comforted her.

'A car hit you.'

'Oh. Wow, I can play the piano?' Mikan did a demonstration of piano playing. Her best friends gasped.

'Mikan… You forgot how to play the piano??'

'Sadly, its one of the many things I forgot how to do.'

'Its alright, you can relearn it! We'll get someone to teach you.' Anna said.

'Where's mum and dad?' That question caught them off guard, she lost the memory of her parents' death.

'They're…' Anna and Nonoko said.

'Di...'

'Dyed their hair and found it horrible so they had to go overseas to find the best hair stylist to fix their hair.' Hotaru finished. Anna and Nonoko looked in confusion but then decided to keep quiet.

'Oh, ok.' Mikan didn't question any further. Her friends were relieved.

2 months later…

Mikan walked up to the gates of Melody High, it was her first day back at school after the accident. The students showered her with gifts, get well cards and flowers as she walked in. She smiled and accepted the gifts. Mikan went to her locker and placed her bag and gifts inside. It was a wonder that the gifts fit, thanks to Hotaru and her invention, the not-so-little bag. It lets you put as much things inside, the weight and the size would remain the same. Genius right? Mikan walked towards the classroom when she heard a beautiful sound.

The sound was beautiful and peaceful and came from the music room. She peeked inside and saw a certain raven hair boy playing the piano. Mikan stayed quiet and watched him play. His fingers glided between the notes to delicately. She listened to the sweet and rich notes flow from the instrument. When the music stopped, she quickly ran away to her class, leaving Natsume wondering who listened to his music.

Ms Crotchet was their home room teacher; she was pretty as well as nice. She welcomed Mikan once again and placed her next to Natsume. She smiled but the smile didn't reach her eyes. During the class, Natsume wrote something on a piece of paper and passed it to her.

'I heard you can't play the piano anymore.' It read.

'Yeah, that's right.' She wrote back.

'You also lost your voice.'

'Correct.' Her single word answer left Natsume to think.

'If you want, I can teach you to play again.' Natsume wrote back after some time. Mikan shook her head furiously.

'It will be too much trouble for you, Hyuuga-san.' Natsume smiled.

'Call my Natsume. It will be my honour to help you regain your talent.'

'Ok. If you say so, thank you, Natsume-kun.' Mikan sent him a small smile.

'Cool. Let's meet at lunch and after schools, ok?' Natsume wrote. She nodded.

From that day onwards, Natsume taught Mikan how to play the piano. Like when she was younger, she caught on fast and soon, she was back to where she was before the accident. Mikan also gain her smile back after spending endless afternoons with him. After school, Natsume would walk Mikan home to her mansion.

One particular day, they were walking when a person rushed in front of them and got hit by a motorbike. Blood spluttered everywhere; Mikan stared and slowly regained the memory of her parents' death. She screamed a soundless scream. Natsume covered her eyes and guided her to a park bench. They sat down as Mikan cried as Natsume comforted her. It was just like that time; Mikan cried without sound. Natsume patted her head gently and whispered soft things to her. They went home after that and told the rest of the Sakura family.

To let Mikan relax, Natsume brought her to the beach. Mikan wore a cute whit summer dress with white thongs. Natsume wore his usual top and jeans. They played like little children, running and squirting water everywhere. When they returned home, Natsume kissed her on the forehead. Mikan fell in love instantly. She smiled.

'Thank you Natsume-kun.' She said, her voice had come back!

'You regained your voice!' Natsume said.

'Yes.' After a final goodbye, Natsume left. Mikan called her friends to tell them what had happened. She felt as if she would burst inside with happiness.

The next day, Mikan greeted everyone she saw; they greeted back and were happy that she had her voice back. She went to find Natsume but he was nowhere to be found. When Ms Crotchet came in, she said the thing that broke Mikan's heart. Natsume had transferred to Alice Academy because they wanted his skills. Mikan ran outside after she heard this and cried at the sakura.

When she got home, a letter had arrived for her. It was from Natsume:

Dear Mikan,

Sorry I had to leave so suddenly. After I left you, I came to find all my things were gone and that I was being sent to Alice Academy. I'm sorry I couldn't stay. Just remember to smile, for me. If you believe in fate, we will meet again.

PS. Don't cry, stay strong.

Love Natsume.

She smiled and kept the note safe.

2 years passed, Mikan is in 9th grade, she got involved in more than 100 competitions and performances, hoping to see Natsume but no avail. He was never there. She saw an advertisement for music scholarships to Alice Academy. She asks Hotaru, Anna and Nonoko if they wanted to try out for it. They understood the reason and agreed. The four applied for the school's scholarship and waited for the date of the audition.

I really hope I can get in! Mikan thought.

Me: Well? How was it, review please!

Mikan: Onegai, *puppy eyes*

Natsume: *Stands up* *Takes a pair of sunglasses from nowhere* *Puts it on Mikan*

Mikan: NATSUME, WHAT THE HELL???!

Natsume: Idiot. Only I can see those eyes of yours. Anyone else who can see them will be scarred for life.

Me: … Sure, that's your excuse. (Insert Sarcasm Here)

Me: Anyway guys, review please! Hit the green button! I'll be updating soon! Suggestions are welcome!
