Disclaimer; I do not own Gakuen Alice nor any of the charactors.^_^
Mikan stared at the building before her. Alice Academy. Oh, the memories it held for her. it had been seven long years since she had set eyes on it. A small smile appeared upon her lips as she pondered on the memories she once shared those many years ago. Shaking away her thoughts, she head towards the school only to stop a few steps before the door. What now?, she thought. Does she go to Narumi? Surely he's asleep. And she doesn't have her own room yet, because she doesn't have a star rank. Nobody even knew she was coming back. Hotaru would surely shoot her with her baka gun if she went to her room. As loving as Mikan thought Hotaru was deep down, she still had an awful way of showing it. Settling on Natsume, Mikan opened the door to the school and stepped inside.
Nothing much had changed about the school. It did, however, bring a smile to my face that hadn't been seen for quite some time. Kami-Sama, I have missed this place so. As I made my way to Natsume's room, I made sure to walk past all the dorms first, checking that all my former classmates were asleep. Sadly, they all were. I stopped in front of Hotaru's room momentarily, then thought better. I'd have to face her baka gun in the morning, that seemed bad enough. I continued to skip towards Natsume's room. Yes, skip. I still do that.
I sucked in a breath of air as I reached out for the doorknob. I didn't want my knocking to wake him up just yet. Locked. I felt so stupid. Of course he would lock the door. How else would he keep out his fan girls? Baka Mikan. Now how was I suppose to get in? I stood there for a minute with my thoughts. Oh yeah, I had the teleportation alice from mom. Duh, Mikan. I shut my eyes for a moment, imagining the inside of Natsume's room and when I opened them again, I was there.
He looked so peaceful laying there across the room in his special star bed. I almost screamed in excitement of seeing him again. Seven years I had dreamt of this moment, seeing this boy again and here he lay before me almost as if I had never left. I moved closer to see him more clearly. He had grown quite a bit, his features more matured, and his hair a tad bit longer. He was almost breathtaking. Although 'almost' wasn't the word I should use seeing as I am clearly holding my breath.
I sat on the edge of the bed, trying not to wake him, I scooted closer to where he lay. I lay on my back beside him, slowly lowering my head to the pillow next to his.
'I missed you so much,' I whispered. 'Maybe even more than Hotaru.'
I checked to see if he was still asleep. He was so I continued. 'I wonder how everybody will react to me tomorrow. I hope they'll be happy. I know I'm happy to be back. It's all so exhilarating, really.'
'I wasn't aware you knew such words.'
I froze.
'Speechless, Polka?'
That did it. 'Natsume! Hentai! For your information, I don't wear Polka-Dots anymore!'
'Oh, really,' He smirked. 'Then what is it you wear, Mikan?'
I scowled at him and got up to leave.
'Where are you going?' he asked, jumping up from the bed to stop me.
'Away from you,' I retorted.
He grabbed me from behind, picking me up bridal style and dumping me on the bed.
I cursed him, screaming every word I knew at the top of my lungs. He kissed me. Yeah, you know that cheesy movie-moment kiss to make you shut up, that kind. Except that only made me madder.
'Don't do that you nasty fox.'
'Then shut up for once, Polka. You're gonna wake up the whole school.'
I didn't care. I just scowled at him while he smirked at me which made my scowl deepen. We stayed like that for a moment until he finally broke the silence.
'Miss me so much you'd risk being found by the elementry school principle by coming here?'
This time I was the one who smirked. Seven years later and the boy is still a jerk. 'No, I defeated the elementry school principle.'
His face turned serious, 'When?'
'Earlier today'
'Well, how?'
'I stole his alice.'
'All of it?'
'The whole thing.'
He just looked at me. Amazed.
'So your coming back to school?'
'I'm here, aren't I?'
He just looked thoughtful. After a moment he grabbed the cover, pulled it over himself, and lay back down. I just stared at him, not knowing what else to do.
He then opened his eyes and opened the cover next to him. 'Oi, baka, come on already. We've got school tomorrow.'
Suddenly forgetting that I was mad, my thoughts turned giddy. All i could think was; He still loves me. I quickly got under the covers and snuggled up next to Natsume's fire-inhibited body. Tomorrow was going to be great.
So, What did ya think! Review if you want a second chapter! Flames accepted!
