The Perfect Christmas

Chapter 1 : December 22 – 4 More Days

Hey Everyone!
It's me! This is a Christmas Special and I'll be uploading everyday until Christmas and on Christmas Morning. If I cancome up with ideas of what to write more about after Christmas Day I'll continue and only if you like it!
So enjoy!
OH! And I noticed I always forget to say this :

I DO NOT OWN GAKUEN ALICE OR ANY OF IT'S CHARACTERS!

Done! So read and review and tell me what you thought was good or bad! Chapter 6 of Forgotten Love is really short and I apologize for those who like long chapters, but that chapter was important and needed to be short. SORRY!
Well hope you enjoy!

Bells rang as two couples walked into the brightly decorated shop. The inside was colored red and white like candycanes and lights of the color green hung across the walls. The walls were covered in candy and christmas stockings. The young brunette reached out of an orange and white candycane that popped out compared to the others.

"Natsume can you buy me this one?" She asked unhooking the candy cane from the wall. She turned to look at him with a playful pleading look.

"How much does it cost?"The crimson eyed boy asked.

"Natsume!!! Why does that matter?! Why can't you just buy something as small as this candy cane for your girlfriend?!" She questioned and she exhaled.

"I'm only joking, Mikan. Here, hand it over." He said as he extended his hand for the candy cane. She placed it in his hand. He walked up to a wall and unhooked a red and white candy cane for him then walked up to the counter where he paid for it, then he handed the red and white one to her.

"Actually… I want yours." Natsume smiled as he unwrapped the candy cane and licked it.

'MY candy cane! You evil!" Mikan grunted. Natsume broke off the other end of her candy cane and handed it to her. She grabbed it, frowning. She poked him on the shoulder with the red and white candy cane.

"It's four days 'til Christmas and yet you still treat me horribly." Mikan kept poking.

"Horribly? Since when?" Natsume questioned.

"Since forever." She laughed, seeing the concern. She pecked him on the cheek. "I'm going to go ahead and find some tables for the four of us. You wait for Hotaru and Ruka, ok?"

"Sure, sure." He answered, bored now. He watched as she hurriedly ran then he turned to the shop. He put his hands in his pockets, they were getting really cold. The door openned and out came a raven haired girl with bright purple eyes that shone against her snow pale skin. She was pulling a young blonde blue eyed boy by the hood. In her hands she was holding a ton of multicolored candy canes. Hanging from her mouth was a purple striped candy cane. She stared at Natsume.

"He wouldn't buy me another candy cane." She stated as though answering a question he was asking in his head. Then she dragged Ruka to more stores.

Well I guess I'm going to go meet Mikan without them. Natsume thought. He walked down the road and passed by the new shop that just openned up. A sign at the top of the store read "Tenngoku no Yume Shoppe" (Heavenly Dream Shoppe). He peered at the display in the window, then walked away.

The second Mikan noticed Natsume she stood up and waved.

"Natsume! Over here!" She waved. He walked up to the table at the oldest restaurant in Central Town.

"Where's Hotaru and Ruka?" Mikan asked taking a bite of her cake.

"I dunno. Hotaru's dragging him around." Natsume answered after ordering a drink. He looked out the window. The snow was pure white and it fell so slowly. Mikan looked where Natsume was looking.

"Isn't it gorgeous? It's so pretty how the snow falls so slowly and you see the snowflake in motion as it falls to the ground. Winter is such a wonderful season." Mikan smiled at herself. She was in her own world.

"Every season's beautiful to you." He smirked. The waitress set down his candy cane hot chocolate. He took a sip and a piece of Mikan's cake.

"You really have to stop taking my things and eating candy canes." Mikan laughed. Her hair was up in her signature pigtails and her rosy cheeks were rosier from the cold. She wasn't wearing any gloves and you can tell she was frozen even if they were inside and not out. Natsume pushed his hot chocolate toward her and wrapped her fingers around it.

"You know what you really need to do. You need to keep warm. What do you think you're doing not wearing gloves? You'll freeze. Drink it." Natsume said ordering another one for himself.

"Mikan sipped at it, smiling. Natsume had changed so much. He would have temper tantrums and fight over stupid reasons. He still does, not as much though, thankfully.

"So…" Mikan started. Natsume looked up at her once he got his hot chocolate. "What do you want for Christmas, Natsume? I'll get you whatever you want."

"Anything?" Natsume eyed her. She smiled back.

"Anything."

"I want one thousand manga books and an airplane." He responded.

Her face dropped and his solid emotionless face changed to a laughing face.

"I'm joking. I don't' want anything." He wiped away his tears of laughter.

"Liar. I bet you want something." She eyed him, doubtfully.

"Cross my heart. " He said as she made a cross on his chest.

"Your heart's more to the left. What did you get me for Christmas! I wanna know!" She giggled.

"I can't tell you yet." Natsume said putting a finger on his lip. Mikan frowned.

"Are you done drinking? I wanna go look at the giant Christmas Tree. She looked out the window. It was slowly getting dark.
"The lights will look gorgeous in the dark." She pulled him out of his seat and dropped a couple of rabbits on the table. She dragged him to the Christmas Tree which was in the center of Central ran, dragging him. By the time they reached the Tree it was dark and the Christmas Tree shone so bright she had to cover her eyes at first. Natsume rested his head on the top of Mikan's and held her hads from the back.

"Isn't it pretty?" Mikan whispered.

"You can see this any day until Christmas, why now?" Natsume asked.

"Because we're alone together right now." Mikan answered. Natsume didn't get it at first, then noticed only about 6 more people there.

"Wow. Nobodies here. That's a first." Natsume said. He squeezed Mikan's hands. "How many times have I told you to bring your gloves when we're going out?" Natsume asked then pulled off his gloves and put them on Mikan. Then wrapped his scarf around her. "Stay warm. I can't have you sick on Christmas."

"Yeah, I know. Sorry." Mikan smiled. She leaned in and pecked him on the lips.

"Isn't this fun! I mean, I can feel the snowflakes on my face as they melt." Mikan squealed happily spinning in circles and circles.

"Uh huh, sure." Natsume shrugged. "How is this fun?" While she was spinning around in her own world, he had set himself down on a bench watching a stupid little girl spin around.

"Because it is!" Mikan stuck her toungue out at him then she ran toward him and gave him a big hug. Natsume, being an emotionless freak he didn't' move.

Mikan smiled.

"I love you."
