Hello everyone! I have a new story! I don't know if it's gonna be two or three-shot though. Anyways, I hope you'll like it! This is only the first chapter :)

Disc: Definitely not mine.

You always say you hate to see me hurt, and you hate to see me cry. So all those times that you hurt me, did you close your eyes?

Chapter One::: The Breakup

It was a fine morning at the Yukihara residence when a doorbell interrupted the maids who were cleaning the house. They scampered to another area of the house when they got finished while some of them had stayed to see who was the visitor.

Mikan Sakura Yukihara descended the stairs as the maids greeted her. She went to the living room and opened the door to face her guest.

This lovely lady is the daughter of the famous businessman Izumi Yukihara and the famous fashion designer Yuka Azumi Yukihara. She has dazzling hazel eyes and waist-length brunette hair. She has a bubbly personality that can brighten up your day, but she is also clumsy and sometimes dense. She has a lot of friends but she also has a few enemies for four reasons.

One is being famous. Two is being rich. Three is having lots of admirers. And finally, the fourth reason is. . .

"Yo, Polka," the raven-haired teen stood in front of her with flowers in hand.

"Morning, Natsume!" Mikan greeted back happily.

Mikan Sakura is Natsume Hyuuga's girlfriend.

Natsume is a son of a successful surgeon, Hiragashi Hyuuga, and the principal of Alice Academy, Kaoru Hyuuga. He has gorgeous, unique crimson eyes that he inherited from his mother, and messy raven hair. He has a lot of fan girls in school and it really is annoying the heck out of him. He's also the jealousy type of person but he restrains himself from strangling the guys who are admiring Mikan, for the sake of his girlfriend. The crimson-eyed lad is also a minor type of a loner because he likes the quietness and peaceful surrounding around him that Mikan also came to love. He's not romantic but he can express his feelings in a 'cool' and 'special' way.

"Here," Natsume held the flowers in front of Mikan which she gladly accepted. She cheerfully called on one of her maids and politely asked her to keep the white lilies fresh on one of their vases. "Are you ready?" the lad asked her.

"Yup," Mikan nodded vigorously.

Today was their first anniversary and they agreed to go to the aquarium. Mikan was really looking forward to this day and so was Natsume. They both didn't get enough sleep last night but the presence of each other made their days full of life.

How did they get to know each other? Let's say the two of them had started from being mortal enemies because of a certain incident that Mikan would never forget. And that was. . . when Natsume accidentally (but for Mikan it was intentionally) poured his Coke on her on their first day of senior high school. And when they see each other in the hallways, sneers, glares, and scoffs were being passed back and forth. Why? Because Natsume didn't apologize to Mikan for that incident and instead, his best friend Ruka was the one who did even though he didn't even do anything wrong.

And for the reason that they quarrel a lot, their best friends, Ruka and Hotaru, finally got fed up with those 'useless shits', as Hotaru put it. She set them into a blind date and the two of them were very, very surprised to see each other. After that Natsume offered to drive Mikan home, halfheartedly, and Mikan tried to be stubborn but she gave in when she saw Natsume leaving the fancy French restaurant. But that night seemed to be the most unlucky moment for them because Natsume's car suddenly stopped in the middle of the highway and it was a good thing that there were not many cars out there.

After that blind date, things seemed to get back to normal but the two of them suddenly became self-conscious with each others' presence. Unknowingly, things became more smoother between them but they didn't stop arguing. And on their graduation day, Natsume had gathered all of his courage to confess to Mikan even though his pride might got hurt after that. Surpringly (A/N: not really, but for Natsume) Mikan also told him that she loved him. That was when the two of them were officially in a relationship.

"Let's take a lot of pictures together!" Mikan said, smiling.

"Sure," Natsume replied with a smirk. He started the engine of his car and drove off the Yukihara mansion.

Half of the day the two of them were in the aquarium taking pictures and looking for the sea creatures. It amazed Mikan of how many different living things were in the oceans, seas, etc. While Natsume was just enjoying himself too since Mikan was with him. In the afternoon, they decided to go to the beach. When they arrived there, only a few people were there.

"We can see the sunset here," Natsume said, opening the other door for Mikan.

"Yeah," Mikan responded, getting out of the car. Natsume closed the car and intertwined his hands with Mikan's. Mikan was already used to it, but the mere touch of Natsume made her heart beat faster and made her face go red.

"You're blushing, Polka-dots," Natsume teased with a sly smirk on his face.

"W-Whatever," Mikan looked away only to stare at Natsume's face again for the fact that he was turning her head towards him using his hand that was fixed on her jaw.

"Love you, Mikan," Natsume said seriously. Mikan was half-surprised because that really came out of nowhere but nevertheless, she couldn't help but smile brightly at him.

"Love you too," she beamed.

natsume then leaned in until their noses were touching and Mikan was blushing madly. She closed her eyes only to open them again when she felt Natsume kissed her. . . nose.

The raven-haired lad laughed heartily at Mikan's shocked look. Then he received a glare from her and he was surprised when Mikan tugged on the collar of his shirt and his lips collided with hers. It was only a chaste kiss but it brought such precious warmness in his chest. Mikan then started walking towards the shore. Natsume broke on his trance before smiling and following his girlfriend.

The sky was painted with red, yellow, pink, and orange hues. The sounds of the waves crashing at the shore added to the harmonic atmosphere. It was breath-taking and nothing could possibly compare to this scene.

But it became blurry for Mikan's eyes.

She clutched her head when her mind suddenly became a bit woozy. Natsume grabbed her arm and her head bumped onto his chest. Mikan looked up only to saw a blurry image of Natsume. She blinked and blinked and blinked.

". . .-kan, Mikan, are you alright?" Natsume's worried voice snapped her reverie.

Mikan then finally saw a clear image of Nastume and then she hugged him. Natsume was a bit surprised because of her actions but he also hugged her and squeezed her.

"Are you okay?"

"I'm fine. Maybe a bit tired," Mikan answered.

"We should go home then," Nastume offered.

Mikan could only nod and then Natsume led her to his car. During the whole ride, Mikan was quiet while Natsume was stealing worried glances at her. Mikan was confused on why she got dizzy a while ago and Natsume was worried because he knew that something was not right. After the ride, Natsume stopped at the Yukihara mansion.

"Are you really alright?" Natsume asked again.

Mikan just smiled and gave his hand a squeeze. "I'm fine. I enjoyed the date. Thanks. Happy Anniversary"

Natsume tugged his lips upwards and squeeze Mikan's hand back. "I also had fun. Take care and happy anniversary." Natsume then leaned it and kissed Mikan's lips. She kissed him back and pulled back after a few seconds. She then went out of the car and Natsume watched her the whole time until she was on the doorsteps of her house. He smiled at her one more time and drove off.

3 weeks later. . .

Natsume was worried as hell. He was texting Mikan for maybe a hundred times already but he got nothing. No reply. No calls. Nothing. . .

He went to her house 2 days ago but she wasn't there. A week after their anniversary, Mikan seemed to be acting weirdly and it was bugging the hell out of him. And then after that week, she seemed to be avoiding him until now. He was really getting impatient and not too mention, he was really going to die from worrying too much.

"Goddammit," he cursed as he flipped his phone back and forth.

"Onii-chan!" a melodic voice called out from downstairs. Natsume then went out of his room upstairs and went to the living room idly.

There was Aoi, his sister. She's really similiar to him except from personality because Aoi is cheerful, just like Mikan. She started high school last month. She's really fond with Mikan and that's why when she first saw her as Natsume's girlfriend, she literally clung onto her all day, much to Nastume's dismay.

"What is it, buriko?" Natsume asked, annoyed.

"Mikan-nee-chan is on the phone!"

With that, Natsume ran to where the phone was connected, like a lightning. Aoi was giggling behind him; she knew that her brother must have missed his girlfriend so much.

"Hello? Mikan?" Natsume called out.

". . .Natsume."

"Polka, you don't know just how worried I was! You were not answering my calls, my texts, and I even went to your house."

"I'm sorry. But I have a reason for this call. Can we meet up?"

Natsume's heart skipped a beat. His hands started to get clammy and cold. He knew that this news would only be bad and he was going to dread it soon enough. Is she going to break up with me? Did something happened? Did I did something wrong? Those were the lines that kept on replaying at Natsume's head but he shook it off because the feeling of wanting to see his girlfriend again had weighed more.

"Where?"

"At the Alice Academy playground."

Natsume arrived at the playground of the Alice Academy Elementary division. Hecaught his breath as he got a glimpse of Mikan's back. Her brunette hair was swaying with the winter cold breeze. It was a good thing that she was wearing a coat and gloves. But Natsume only got his coat so his hands were slightly trembling with coldness.

"Mikan."

The said brunette turned around and greeted him with a smile. But something with that smile was definitely off.

She was giving him a sad smile.

"Natsume. . . My parents arranged a marriage for me. I'm sorry Natsume," Mikan's eyes were brimming with tears.

To say that Natsume was shocked was an understatement. His eyes widened with fear—fear of losing Mikan. And his fists shook with rage. There was something that was breaking inside of his chest; it felt like his heart was being torn into pieces.

"Is that why you're avoiding me?" Natsume asked, voice was quivering.

A tear had fell down on Mikan's cheeks as she tried to look away from him. She couldn't possibly bring herself to look at him when he had this look on his face. He looked so vulnerable and. . . broken.

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"Natsume. . . I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I'm so. . . sorry," Mikan repeatedly said. She was already crying as Natsume stepped closer to her and enveloped her with a hug.

"We can run away together, Mikan. I'm gonna marry you and I promise my feelings for you won't change," Natsume said sincerely while his tears dampened Mikan's hair.

She pulled away from him and took a step back. "I'm sorry, Natsume. I don't think this relationship will work out with people interfering."

Natsume suddenly grasped Mikan's hands and he pleadingly said, "Mikan. . . I'll fight for you. I don't care about what they say. I only love you and that's all that matters."

"I'm sorry," Mikan took her hands back and ran away, leaving a tear-stricken Natsume.

Hot, painful tears rolled down on his cheeks. He didn't know. He didn't know that this would happen. He didn't know that their happy moments would end up as heartbreaking as this. He didn't know. . . He only knew that. . .

. . . It was painful. . . It was heart-wrenching. . . It hurts. . . like hell. . .

Ta-da~ How's the first chapter? I'm expecting reviews from you and tell me what do you think of this story ^^
