MikanXNatsumefan101: Hi! I know I said I wouldn't start writing on anything else until I'm done with my first fanfiction, but I'm kinda having a mental lock and want to sort it out myself; relax, I'm still going to keep on updating. I'm already halfway through. I just need to figure out how to finish the chapter. I'm going to start an alphabetical series from A-Z. I'm going to start first with the alphabet. This won't be the normal GA setting, though.

Mikan: I don't know, I like the normal setting better.

MikanXNatsumefan101: Maybe next time, Mikan-chan. When I'm done with all this, from A-Z.

Action!

Chapter 1: A meeting with the devil himself

Mikan dried herself in the locker room and changed back into her high school clothes. (Gakuen Alice, of course) She'd just gotten out of the swimming pool and her friends were in the locker room with her, praising her for winning yet another competition. It had been 2 years since Mikan had joined the swimming CCA and she became the vice-captain in just 2 months and eventually became captain when the old captain graduated.

Mikan was good in all the sports: Basketball, Volleyball, Netball, Softball, Tennis, Badminton, you name it, you get it. In fact, she was the sports captain in all of these CCAs (co-curricular activities). She could manage sports so well she now had 7 co-curricular activities at one go, AND she was also the sports captain in each and every one of them. Not to mention she was also the head prefect at school, which meant her grades were in tip-top condition. This is her profile:

Name: Sakura Mikan.

Sports: Basketball, Volleyball, Netball, Softball, Swimming, Tennis, Badminton

Status at school: Head prefect, straight A-stars student, popular (73 friends at school)

One thing that gets her mad easily: Boys who whistle at her as she walks down the hallway. What she does to such boys: Remove the backpack from her shoulder and sling it over on shoulder, muster all her strength, turn around, smile at the guy and swings it right over his head, more often than not resulting in him having a concussion.

Height: 165 cm.

Slim, lets her hair down to her waists, brown hair and eyes.

Friends: Hotaru (whom she loves very much), Anna, Nonoko, Koko, Yuu and Sumire

Family:

Siblings: Three older brothers, and one older sister (Ryuu, Akira, Ryoma and Kikai)

Parents: Yuka and Unknown.

Yuka: Tends to let her imagination runaway with her.

This ends Mikan's profile.

Mikan was pretty much a perfect and dream girl, right? Too bad she SO wasn't interested in relationships. Her opinion of relationships is this: Hugging and kissing, big deal. There's seriously nothing much interesting in such things. You could do the same thing to your pet hamster.

The thing was that in her opinion, dating was a boring thing to do. That was what she felt about guys. The same applied for Hotaru. Which was probably why when she first met Hyuuga Natsume, she wasn't awed by his looks. In fact, she was pretty much, 'Like, whatever!' Until he gave a stupid comment on her underwear. Damn him.

It was bright and cheery morning. Mikan was walking calmly to school, a vein twitching in her forehead as she herad a dozen guys wolf-whistling at her. Oh, how she longed to turn around and hit one of them on their heads. She walked on the pavement, her head buried in a book, so she didn't see where she was going. Thud! She bumped into someone and her butt landed lightly on the floor. "Ouch…" She muttered. Then, she promptly stood up and looked at whoever she had bumped into. "I'm sorry I bumped into you!" She bowed down then when she looked up and realized he was only a guy, she frowned. "So it's only a guy."

She looked at him up and down. His features weren't bad, she had to admit. She had never seen a guy who had better features than him before. But, she reminded herself, he was a guy. Guys were idiots, at least in her own opinion. He raised an eye brow. "What do you mean by that?"

"Nothing. Just that you're a guy. That's all. See you." She started walking away.

"Nice choice of underwear, by the way, Polka-dots!" He called out. She immediately reddened. Idiot. She quickened her pace and reached the school quickly. He looked at her, amused. It was the first time a girl hadn't analysed him from head to toe and blush like nobody's business.

Mikan clenched her fists when she recalled that morning's incident. It pissed her off to no end to know that he'd peeked on her underwear. She was the head prefect, so she had to keep her emotions in check and thank goodness she'd managed not to yell her head off at him when he'd commented on her underwear.

She was in the classroom now and Narumi had just pranced in. "Good morning class!" He chirped in a happy mood. Heck, when was he ever NOT in a happy mood? Mikan rolled her eyes. "We have a new transfer student today!"

In walked two boys. One boy had raven hair and crimson eyes. Mikan immediately recognised him as the boy she had bumped into earlier that morning. She narrowed her eyes. She turned her attention onto the boy beside him. Blue eyes, blonde hair, with a bunny in his hands, he was real cute. Too bad Mikan wasn't interested in guys. All the girls except for Nonoko, Hotaru, Anna and Mikan were swooning over the new boys.

The blonde haired guy walked up front and introduced himself first. "I'm Nogi Ruka, a three-star student, my alice is animal pheromones."

The raven haired guy walked up front and uttered coldly, "Hyuuga Natsume. Special star. Fire Alice. Disturb me and I'll burn you."

Narumi then asked them to pick a partner to sit with. They looked around and sweat-dropped when they realized that practically all the girls in class were drooling at them and even some guys. Their eyes searched desperately for someone who wasn't drooling at them and found two separate seats; one beside Mikan and one beside Hotaru. Natsume recognized Mikan as the girl he'd bumped into that morning and smirked. Mikan glared at him, and turned to look at Ruka, smiling sweetly. Ruka practically melted into her smile, it was so beautiful.

Natsume stared at Hotaru. She was, as usual, working on one of her inventions and he noticed her face was quite devoid of emotion. He decided it was safer to sit with some on of his same kind and besides, Ruka was begging him to let him sit with Mikan, because when Ruka had first introduced himself, he noticed Hotaru staring at him with an evil gleam in her eye and whereas Mikan was smiling warmly.

When Natsume sat down, he half expected her to look at him and blush, even just a bit. But to his surprise, when Hotaru lifted her head and looked at him, she looked at him blankly, nodded just a tiny fraction and, as if acknowledging his presence and bent her head back to her work again. This girl was just like him, except maybe slightly colder.

Ruka plonked himself down in his seat and smiled uncertainly at Mikan. "Hi…"

"Hi! My name's Sakura Mikan; I'm the Head prefect!" She smiled brightly at him. The lesson went on as normal and after the lessons, which was time for recess, everyone filed out of the room except for Koko, Yuu, Nonoko, Anna, Hotaru, Mikan, Ruka and Natsume. Ruka had formed fast friends with Mikan; he was chatting happily to her even though the lessons for the first half of school was already over, and Natsume stayed because he was waiting for Ruka.

When Hotaru signaled for Mikan to get out of the classroom, Mikan smiled apologetically to Ruka and told him she had to get going, and she bounced off to the canteen with her friends, leaving Ruka and Natsume in the classroom.

When the gang reached the canteen and found a table to sit at, Mikan unwrapped her lunch and started the conversation with, "Do you know there's a haunted toilet at school?"

Nonoko and Anna squealed loudly while Hotaru started munching on the crabs that she'd brought from home. "What happened?" Yuu asked, biting into a green apple.

"How should I know? I'm just saying that it's haunted, that's all!" Mikan replied, starting on her tuna sandwich.

The gang sweat-dropped, all except for Hotaru. "It's on the third floor in the second last cubicle. A girls' toilet, of course." Mikan added.

"Isn't it the one where Kakiri disappeared into?" Hotaru said monotonously. The gang froze.

"What exactly happened?" Mikan asked.

"She walked into the cubicle and I didn't hear a sound from her and I got worried. I was there at the time. I called a security guard to check and when he kicked it open…" Hotaru swallowed an extremely large portion of crab.

"And then??" Everyone urged.

"She wasn't there."

"EH??" Everyone was freaked out now.

"You know, there's something I've never told you guys before." Mikan looked at her fingers, as she spoke up uncomfortably.

"What? You got a boyfriend?" Anna asked excitedly.

"NO!" Mikan glared. "I went into the cubicle before."

"WHAT??" Eveyone, again, but Hotaru gasped.

"There was a hand that came out of the cubicle. It was black in colour." Mikan fidgeted.

"And then???" Nonoko questioned.

"And… I ran away." Mikan looked down at her shoes. Everyone sweat-dropped. That was lame…

Just then, the cafeteria doors opened and Ruka and Natsume strolled in. All the girls swooned and Natsume's eyes swept across the canteen and his eyes locked onto Mikan. Mikan at the moment felt like cursing aloud, but she had a Head prefect reputation to keep. He walked up to her table and looked at her, with Ruka following obediently behind him.

"Hyuuga."

"Polka-dots." She could have killed him for saying that.

To be continued…
