Chapter One
Wednesday, Morning
Normal POV
"I hate Valentine's Day!" seventeen years old Mikan Sakura exclaimed.
Mikan's best friend, Imai Hotaru, stared at her like a crazy women who had just screamed in the hall ways of the school.
"I thought you hated Christmas and now you added Valentine's Day to the list." Hotaru said to her.
"Have you seen this?" Mikan waved the letter from Principal Satoshi that she found in her locker in front of Hotaru.
"No," She replied while taking off her purple scarf from her neck. "I just got here and I am still freezing."
"Read it then" Mikan handed the letter over to Hotaru.
Hotaru skimmed through the letter and handed it back to Mikan. "I don't understand what all the drama about."
"We are made to feel inferior because we don't have boyfriends"
Hotaru opened her locker to hang her scarf inside and collect her book for her morning classes. When she opened it, the letter floated to the floor. "I don't think Principal Satoshi is conspiring against students who don't have boyfriends or girlfriends"
"Well, it feel that way," Mikan grumbled
"You are just mad because you didn't have someone secretly crushing on you the way some of other girls did during the Christmas party last year" Hotaru said
"And those girls have boyfriends for Valentine's Day" Mikan
Mikan had always hated Valentine's Day. The reason was that she never had a boyfriend on that day. Sure, she had gone on a number of dates since middle school (they are in high school now but first year) but she had never had a long-term boyfriend the way some of the other girls in her class had. Every Valentine's Day she would get to see those girls get boxes of candy and bouquets of flowers and hear about their Valentine's Day dates. When was she going to have her first real Valentine's Day?
"We can stay at home and watch movies and the next day when we come to school, we can pretend we had a wonderful Valentine night with our boyfriends" Hotaru said as she closed her locker and started to walk down the hall ways with Mikan
"Uh-uh, no freaking way," Mikan said with determination in her eyes "We are not going to stay at home this time and watch chick flicks, we are going to the Valentine's Day dance"
"Alone?" Hotaru asked
"Why not? A lot of guys would be there alone too. It is the perfect way to meet guys there and fall in love"
"No, it isn't"
"Why not?"
"Because it's like getting stuck with the leftovers."
"Newsflash, Hotaru. We are the leftover too."
"Well, What if we don't find someone there? We are still alone. How humiliation is that? And to make it worse, we are going to be surrounded by all those couples who get flaunt the fact that they have someone while the rest of us are alone." Hotaru said "Do you want to listen to their baby talk? Do you really want to watch them slow-dancing and kissing and slipping away holding hands? Why do they get their own special day and we don't?"
"So you also feel the same way I feel" Mikan triumphantly exclaimed.
"I hate Valentine's Day too. I hate going into stores, smelling all that delicious chocolate and knowing I am going to buy a box of it myself instead of a guy give it to me… how do you always get me to confess my deep dark secrets?"
"Easy," Mikan said, tossing her arm around Hotaru's shoulders and giving her a hug. "Best friends know each other inside out"
Mikan and Hotaru had been best friend since they were young. They both have a deepest enemy- Luna Koizumi. They had been to Luna Koizumi's thirteen birthday party. Luna was the richest girl in their class and she made sure everyone knew it. Whatever she wanted, her parents bought for her, she was always the first to have the latest 'hot' item. She had an in ground swimming pool inside her house and was always having pool parties, even in the winter. During the summer and on school breaks, she and her family traveled the world and sometimes Luna would bring along friend or two. All expenses were paid by her of course. Everyone wanted to be her friend.
But Mikan didn't.
Mikan didn't like Luna because she was a fake. She was buying friendship with all her money, Mikan thought, and she didn't like the fact that Luna thought she was better than everyone else. The fact that she rich made her think she could do and say whatever she wanted
Luna Koizumi was a spoiled bitch
Mikan suspected that Luna knew she didn't like her. Mikan didn't advertise her feeling-she wasn't stupid! - But she never hung out with Luna and her friends at lunch or after school. Unlike other girls in her class, she never sucked up to Luna, asking her if she wanted to do homework together or if she wanted to hang out together.
"Are you ready for Mr. Yamasaki's test today?" Hotaru asked, breaking into Mikan's thoughts
"I don't know why we have to take Anatomy and Physiology. It's not like I am planning to become a doctor."
"You didn't want to take Physics, remember?"
"Well, duh! I almost failed Chemistry. There is no way I was taking another hard science class. I thought Mr. Yamasaki's class would be a breeze. Instead, we are constantly cutting things up. Blech!"
"It will look good on your transcript," Hotaru said
"If I hear the word transcript one more time, I am going to scream!" Mikan exclaimed "My guidance counselor keeps telling me I need to do more extracurricular activities, but how can I do it when I have a part-time job? High School monthly fee isn't going to pay for itself. I need to start saving"
"I am sure you are going to win a scholarship. With the exception of Chemistry last year, your grades are pretty good."
Mikan crosses her fingers. "Let's hope!"
When they got to Mr. Yamasaki's door, they found it was locked.
"I guess he is running late again." Hotaru said
Mikan didn't answer. She was too busy listening to Luna Koizumi, who is few feet away, leaning against a locker. As always, she had her two friends, Miyuki and Miyumi
"I should go tell Principal Satoshi to not bother reading those other essays," Luna said "London and I are going to win. Can you think of any other couple at Gakuen Alice Academy that s more romantic than London and I?"
London is a second year blond from England. He is the second richest in the whole academy, the second in education of the whole second year level and the second hottest guy in the whole academy.
Mikan wanted to roll her eyes at Luna's sentence. If Luna was a bitch, London is her dumb Jock accessory. London and Luna had been dating since the last year of elementary year. Bitches always dated Jocks. It was a high school routine.
"I wonder if there was going to be crowns. Like at last year prom. Do you think we will get crowded?"Luna asked. She didn't wait for Miyuki and Miyumi to answer her but she answer she own question herself. "There have to be crowns! Otherwise, how are we going to stand out? I am going to make sure I have the perfect dress and it has to be pink. Pink for Valentine's Day!"
Mikan couldn't believe how smug Luna was being. What made her think she was going to win? There were lots of other couples at Gakuen Alice Academy. Maybe one of them would be voted as Most Romantic. There was no guarantee that Luna and London were going to win. Of course, this was high school and the popular crowd always ruled. Luna and London had tons of friends. If they made the final cut, they were going to be stiff competition. But that didn't mean they were the most romantic. And it didn't mean they deserved to win!
Listening to Luna goes on and on; Mikan wanted nothing more than to knock her down a few pegs. She couldn't stand listening to her anymore! Luna was so sure she and London were going to win.
Before Mikan could stop herself, the words came tumbling out of her mouth.
"I wouldn't be too sure about winning," Mikan said
Luna looked away from Miyuki and Miyumi, staring at Mikan with a bored expression. "And why is that?"
"Because you are going to have some competition."
"From who"
"Me and my boyfriend"
Luna's eyes widened and she stared at Mikan in disbelief. "Boyfriend? You have a boyfriend?"
"Why do you find that so hard to believe?" Mikan demanded, trying hard not to sound hostile. She didn't want to Luna to know that her comment bugged her.
Luna shrugged and tossed her blond hair. "You have always been more of serial dater. You know. One week, one guy. Another week, another guy."
"I just had not found the right guy yet."
Luna folded her arms over the front of her blouse. "But now you have?"
"That's right. I have. I have been seeing someone since New Year's Eve. We met at a party. It was so romantic. The clock struck midnight and we were both standing next to each other and he asked if he could give me my first kiss of the New Year. How could I say no?"
"Why haven't I seen the two of you together?" Luna asked
"We have been keeping things low-key," Mikan said, wondering if Luna was buying any of what she was saying. She tried to keep track of everything she said so far. Without doubt, Luna would remember every single word of this conversation and then try to trip Mikan up at another time.
The bell for the first class rang and Luna stepped away from the locker she was leaning against. "I and glad you have found someone. It is about time! I am giving a party on Saturday night. Why don't you come?"
It was the first time Mikan had ever been invited to one of Luna's parties. She couldn't believe it.
"Thank for the invite," she said, not wanting to be rude.
"So you will come?"
Mikan shrugged and answer without thinking. "Sure. Why not?"
Luna smiled and as her smile grew, Mikan realized she just made a mistake. A big one. Luna had set a trap and she unknowingly stepped right into it. Instantly, her stomach dropped and butterflies began dancing around, the look of glee on Luna's face was similar to that of a cat that had cornered a mouse and was getting ready to pounce.
"Don't forget to bring your boyfriend," Luna added
"B-b-bring my boyfriend?" Mikan asked
"That's right. You are couple, aren't you?"
"Yes."
"You are not going to leave him alone on a Saturday night. Everyone can meet him!"
"Everyone?" Mikan gasped
"You know how big my parties can be! Most of Gakuen Alice Academy students will be there." Luna said "Your boyfriend will be able to come, won't he?"
"Of course!"
"Good, I can't wait to meet him" Luna smiled smugly
As soon as Luna disappeared around the corner of her first class, with Miyuki and Miyumi right behind her, Hotaru grabbed Mikan, shaking her.
"Are you crazy?" Hotaru asked her. "Have you lost your mind? What are you doing? You don't have boyfriend!"
"Not yet, I don't," Mikan said with determination. "But I will."
"By Saturday night?"
"By Saturday night," Mikan vowed
