DISCLAIMER.

I promise I won't love you.

Knowing you.

Chapter one edited version.

His name whispers throughout the halls, invading every piece of privacy that you once had. His name is used so often, it might as well be in the dictionary. His name causes shivers through my spine, twitches in my eye and the urgency to slap myself silly, just because I allowed myself to hear such an atrocity.

His name is Natsume Hyuuga. That selfish, little, egoistical, obnoxious brat.

I'm ecstatic that he doesn't know of my existence.

I hereby declare, Mikan Sakura aged 15 promises to never fall in love with the likes of Natsume Hyuuga.

Easy as cake, I say.

"Natsume-sama," The girls swoon helplessly as he strides across the hall from them.

One of the girls, flicks her hair and winks. "I think his looking at me."

Looking to see how idiotic you are, yeah.

"Natsume-sama is so angelic like." Another girl squeals.

I look at her, and raise my eyebrows. Is she serious?

Someone with dark raven hair, blood red eyes and dark rugged features looks angelic?

On which planet does she live on? Or has the definition of an angel changed over the years?

"More like a friggin' devil." I mutter. Unfortunately, for me, it wasn't soft enough.

"How dare you call Natsume-sama a devil, you bitch!" The brunette across me yells. My eyes flicker to her, and in some sort of surprising outburst, she yells, "Don't hit me! Stop it!"

Okay, so I've seen some pretty unhealthy people in my life, but this is just crazy. I watched – oh hell, the whole hall watched as she fell to the floor, and started hitting herself. People step back, genuinely scared at first, but as I hear swoons and unnecessary moans get closer I freeze.

"Natsume-sama!" The girl cries, attempting to grab onto his leg, but failing miserably. "She hit me!"

His crimson eyes, I noticed, never left mine and I stare right back. I shrug.

"Think what you want." I hear a few girls snicker as Natsume completely ignores the crying girl as I push through the crowd to leave.

"Finally someone who hates me, ay?" He snorts obnoxiously. I imagined him in a pig nose and tried to hold back my laugh.

"Trust me, you shouldn't even be surprised." I mutter.

"What was that?"

My eyes twitch, and I smirk at him. "Just telling myself how much I love you," I sigh sarcastically, "Oh Natsume."

He smirks, amusement filling his eyes. The crowd around us falls silent as they watch our sarcastic battle, and I almost feel alone with him – if it wasn't for the crying girl on the floor.

"How much is that?"

How much what? How much your face?

"Aw, Natsume – you of all people should know," I wink at him "Don't you remember last night?"

"Not really, no." Snickers explode throughout the hall. Hyuuga, you son of a – "I remember 2nd period though."

I almost choked on my saliva. "That's what she said."

A rumble of laughs from the boys in the hall filled the silence as I watched his face grow more amused every second. Crap, I'm digging my own grave.

I take a step back, already planning my escape route out of here and out of his life.

"Date me," He said, clearly.

One silence, two silence, three Silence.

If it wasn't for the faces of the fan girls in the hall, I would've been just as shocked.

"What?" I laughed. "Are you serious?"

He rolled his eyes tapping the folder in his hands. "No you moron, I'm just joking with you - of course I'm serious."

"Why?"

"Why?" A girl mutters shocked and annoyed – clearly recovered from the shock. "Why the hell not?"

"Yeah?" I say "Why don't you date him then?"

"How about it, Natsume-sama?" she says sweetly, battering her eyes.

He ignores her completely, much to my amusement. "What happened to your love for me?"

"Shared it with them." I say nonchalantly as I tilt my head towards the crowd. "Now if you excuse me…" I say taking a step back again. "I'm awfully –"

"Compensate." He says simply.

"For what?!"

Annoyed, he swore under his breath. "You shared the love right?"

"…Yeah?"

"Take responsibility." Being a man of so little words, it shocked me that he continued. "I'd rather one, than many."

"I'm not that one, buddy."

"Did I say you were?" He pushed.

"Not completely."

"Don't assume."

"Then why do you want me to date you?"

"To prove you love me."

What an egoistical prick, and what kind of sense is that? Seriously, that's some serial killer logic right there.

"No I won't and I don't, even if you were the last human being on the planet, I wouldn't."

"Wanna bet?" He challenged, amusement dead clear in his facial expression.

"Sure, loser. What's the prize?"

He smirks. "My humiliation."

Sounds absolutely fair. "And if you win?"

"Date me."

"One condition buddy,"

"What?"

"You're going to have to fall in love with me too," I smirk. "Unfortunately for you, I only date people who love me."

I turn around, happy that I am leaving so coolly – yeah I know I'm a dork. "So, good luck with that – not."

Hey there!, Oh gosh, i'm really hoping you like this much much much much more than my old chapter, because let's face it - first chapter was dodgy as.

I shouldn't be doing too much changes with this story, maybe the first few chapters, but it shouldn't be changed too much.

My other one shot stories are the ones that are changed, of course - i doubt no major changes would be made.

Thanks for putting up with my slow, uneven updates, but now that this story is done, i just decided to redo this story, give it a better touch up.

Thanks for understanding,

and sorry for the inconvenience.

Helplessly Lovestruck!

Review if possible thanks ! (=
