A/N: Just a one-shot for Alice Academy... WARNING: Character death...
Wish
The night was deep and everybody was sleeping, the time of the night where everyone felt peace and unbothered. Except for a crimson-eyed young man who was in his teens and was forced to do things that adults were supposed to be doing, ever since he was a young boy.
Natsume Hyuuga, a special star student that possesses the fire Alice and is known to be cold-hearted and uncaring, almost dying and suffering from the pain that came from his limbs that were shot by bullets. It's almost a miracle that he's still alive and breathing even though he over-used his Alice and was barely even able to breathe.
Natsume has always been the type of person who'd only open up to people he cares and loves. Many think that it's just Ruka Nogi, his best friend. However there are many things that one would not tell a best friend especially if they share the same feelings for a certain person. And for that he hates his best friend. Ruka is more able to talk to Mikan in a natural way unlike him, all he does is tease her, insult her and worse, hurt her feelings.
Mikan has always been a special person to him. She was able to reserve a space in his heart and unknowingly, make him fall for her. But, as innocent as she is in her teenage years, she's unaware of his feelings.
'I know that she hates me. I'm always giving her a hard time and all I do is make her cry.'
Natsume wants to talk to her, apologize to her and tell her his feelings. Of course, he's expecting rejection from her but still, he hasn't done anything to change their current relationship aside from being classmates.
'Darn it! I'm palpitating and this cold night air isn't doing me any good.'
For a split-second there, Natsume started to recall his happy memories with Mikan. From the time when she gave him her last piece of fluff puffs, when he won the game during the Alice festival, when the time they got stuck in the haunted house by the latent ability types and most of all, when he remembers that she went through all that trouble just to save him from Reo's clutches.
'If I could go back to the time when I got stuck in that haunted house, I wish I was able to tell her my feelings. But instead, all I did was to ignore her.'
Natsume started to picture her smiling face and feeling calm whenever he sees it each time he goes to their class. He wants to see her badly that whatever he could sacrifice, he will only for her.
But then something bad started to happen. His condition got worse and more blood is gushing out of his body, then he started to cough blood as well.
"Oh great! Just when I had the resolve to tell her my feelings, my condition gets worse." Natsume said in a hoarse voice.
'I wish that I could change the way I was to her and be a person she could love and trust. I wish that I'd never been very cold-hearted. I wish that I can be with her, smile with her as if having no care for this world and tell her my feelings and be true to myself. I wish that at least before I go away and leave her, my last wish will come true...'
Somewhere in the female dormitories, a very pretty brown-haired young girl was sleeping...
She was in a very peaceful place, having a picnic, chatting animatedly and being content with that someone she loves. That someone was no other than Natsume Hyuuga, the most feared Alice by all even by the teachers themselves. In her dream, her beloved was smiling and laughing with her. They were having a great time. They were both smiling.
Then suddenly she woke up, only to find herself crying...
A/N: I think it sucks. Please read and review. It's my first so, please don't be harsh...
