Hello! New here, I'm so addicted to Gakuen Alice nowadays so after watching the anime, reading the comic, I'm here to start a story about it. I will be very sorry for my bad English language, so… hopefully anyone who read this story will be able to accept my bad standard of English. By the way, I do not own any Gakuen Alice stuff.

Words in bold will be - Venues/Time/Days...

-Dormitory-

The special clock rang, producing a loud noise, sounded like some chickens were fighting for food.

"Ah…! Shut up!" Mikan hit the button of the clock, slamming it onto the table top and went back to sleep.

The clock actually popped out an enormous hand and eventually hit Mikan's head very badly, which made her woke up from her sleep.

"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Fine, I will get off my bed! What a terrible invention, invented by Hotaru!" Mikan complained as she changed into her uniform.

When she was done, she slowly strode down,towards the dining hall with her mouth mumbling over the nasty invention invented by Hotaru. However, once she stepped into the dining hall and she saw her "beloved" Hotaru, she began to approach her with a big great hug which showed her affection for Hotaru.

"Ho-Ta-Ru…!" She called out loud for her as she was approaching her, trying to give her a hug.

"Baka, Baka, Baka!" The sound of the gun which was invented just for Mikan caught everyone's attention.

Mikan fell onto the floor before she got the chance to hug Hotaru.

"Ouch! It hurts! You're so mean and cold-blooded!" Her tears ran down on her face just like those rainfalls at the end of the northern forest.

"Mikan-Chan…!" Iinchou reached his hand out and pulled Mikan up.

"Arigatou, Iinchou!" She got up and thanks Iinchou.

She got back to her seat beside Hotaru and started to scold Hotaru for her horrible invention.

"Baka…" She got shot again.

Hotaru glared at her and replied her with her standard monotone way of speaking, "If I didn't invent that clock for you, I think you will still be in your bed and you will definitely be late for Jinno-Sensei's lesson."

"But you don't have to invent such a thing that it is so violent!" Mikan carried on with her scolding while Hotaru carried on eating her breakfast.

15 minutes later, Hotaru stood up and walked off.

"Hotaru…! Matte…!" Mikan yelled as she quickly finished up her breakfast to catch up with Hotaru.

-School-

As she was catching up with Hotaru along the corridors, someone actually tripped her.

She fell with her face flat onto the floor with the same old reaction, "Ouch!"

"So… it's flowers today, eh?" Natsume looked at her undergarment.

She immediately stood up and screamed at him as she was trying to punch him, "NATSUME!"

Everyone was looking and gossiping at her with her fist up, trying to punch Natsume.

"Forget it! If I punched him, everyone will starting gossiping more stuff about me, I had enough of bad reputation because of him." She thought about it and let go of Natsume.

She stomped into the classroom with her sulky face and sat down. Natsume and Ruka came into the classroom after a few seconds. Mikan and Natsume glowered at each another before Natsume went to the back of the classroom and sat down.

"Polka dots… I just hate the sight of her. What's wrong with her today? Normally she will even greet and smiled at us even after I had got into a fight with her." Natsume shook his head, "What the hell am I thinking? Why am I thinking about her? Tch…" He covered his face with his manga.

As Iinchou came in, she stood up and greeted him, "Ohayo, Iinchou!"

"Never mind… It's just like what Iinchou told me before, it's the way she shows me her concerns." She told herself and let out a sigh.

"Ohayo, Mikan-Chan…" Iinchou greeted her back.

Natsume looked at her under his manga, "So... I think I have think too much. Plus, why am I so worried about her just now? That's crazy!"

"Ohayo, Ruka Pyon!" She gave her usual broad smile.

Ruka wasn't really paying attention so he was kind of woken up by Mikan greeting.

"Oh, ohayo, Sakura…" Ruka gave her back his greeting as he carried on with his thinking.

"Oha…" Mikan didn't finish greeting sentence as she was thinking of something.

"I don't feel like greeting him after his stupid and childish prank that he had done on me and he won't greet me back anyway but…" She sighed once more.

"Ohayo, Natsume!" She faked out a smile to the person she detested a lot.

"Ohayo… Polka dots…" Natsume replied for the very first time.

This surprised everyone in the classroom, together with Nonoko and Anna who were about to step into the classroom but it didn't gave Hotaru any impact.

Natsume then realized that he actually greeted Mikan back, "Wait… What had I just done? God…! What had I done! I must calm down...at least I didn't call her… Mikan… right...?"

To resolve this silence and awkward situation, Hotaru started to speak, "Anyone wants Ruka's pictures or posters? On sales now, different sizes, different amount of rabbits…"

"Imai…! Give me back those pictures and posters!" Ruka went after Hotaru as she quickly got into her flying duck.

Noises returned after Ruka and Hotaru had created quite a large din in the class.

"Phew… That polka dots friend sure was smart enough to dissolve this awkward situation. Unlike that simple minded, stupid polka dots." Natsume gave out a sigh of relief.

Mikan turned to look at Natsume without anyone noticing her, "That bastard, he still used the nickname to greet me… Anyway I shouldn't complain too much, it's good enough that he finally greeted me." She smiled.

-Meeting room-

"Oh please… Can we? Can we?" Narumi-Sensei began to beg like an innocent child with glittery eyes.

"Anything you want it to be, as long as it won't interrupt our affairs." The principle replied coldly.

"But…!" Jinno-Sensei was trying to disapprove it but his words were being cut off by Serina-Sensei.

"I think it's a good idea as it helps our students to interact more and actually allows them to expose to all kind of situation with the help of the activities that Narumi had planned." She spoke up for him.

"All right then… Dismiss..." The principle announced.

As Misaki-Sensei and Narumi-Sensei went out of the meeting room, they were talking about the activities Narumi-Sensei had planned.

"Are you really sure about this? Jin-Jin looked so furious over it." Misaki-Sensei asked him in a worried tone.

Narumi-Sensei turned and patted his shoulder, "Don't worry, the principle had already approved, right?"

Misaki-Sensei gave "whatever" look.

-Class B-

After Jinno-Sensei lessons

Narumi-Sensei stepped in, clapped his hand twice and everyone went back to their seats.

"Ohayo, mina…! Well, I have something to announce." He carried on with his words, this year we are going to have a surprising and special occasion." He announced.

One of the students raised his hand up and asked, "What could the special occasion be?"

Narumi Sensei grinned, "Well, this actually involves 2 special events together to form 1 occasion."

The whole class gave a "Wow…" but of course, except Natsume and his gang.

"One of the occasions is actually the girls' favourite day." Narumi-Sensei gave a hint.

Sumire was very sure of the day Narumi-Sensei had said, "It is valentine's day!"

"Ho, ho, ho… I'm sure you are really looking forward to it, don't you, Sumire-Chan?" He winked at her.

Sumire blushed like a red apple immediately as she peeped at Natsume and Ruka.

"What about another one?" Iinchou asked Narumi-Sensei about it, he can't wait to know about this special event.

He started to chalk down something onto the blackboard as he answered Iinchou question, "The school decided to push forward the "Stage and Drama" festival, so… we are going to have 2 events on the same week."

He turned to the class, "I'm sure everyone knows the procedure of the annual "Stage and Drama" Festival right. Anyway let me explain it once more for people who forgotten about it."

He put down his chalk and explained while pointing the points on the blackboard, "Every year, 2 major plays will be held on stage. The school will be separated into half for each play with the mixture of different levels of students. Students will write their own scripts, some will set up the props while some will be acting and of course with the teachers' help."

"What are the plays this year?" Someone asked out of curiosity.

He smiled, "Thanks for reminding me that. We are having Cinderella and Twelfth night this year. Our class will be getting involved with Cinderella this year. More elementary branch students will get involve with Cinderella play while more High school or middle school branch students will get more involve with Twelfth Night."

Nonoko waved her hand at Narumi-Sensei, "So what kind of involvement for our class?"

"I'm the one who planned it so... more jobs for our class. Half of our class will be acting while another half will be setting up the props. Well… except the people who are from choir or wanting to join the choir will be involved with the singing. By the way, pupils who want to join the choir for these plays, please go for an audition after school today. I'm sorry that things are getting kind of rush due to the sudden arrangement."

"When will be the event? Plus, the scripts…?" Another person popped out a question.

"It will be 3 weeks later, once they got the script from the middle and high school branch pupils by tomorrow or latest the day after tomorrow, I will start choosing the characters. Let's get on with another explanation of the other event."

"Narumi-Sensei sure speaks a lot today. I think today is his longest lesson throughout my life." Kokoroyomi whispered to Anna and she definitely agreed with it.

"Next… The girls' favourite day! Or rather my favourite day! All right, we had already made a schedule of it. Right after the "Stage and Drama festival" which is going to take 3 days in that week, we will have 2 days for the Valentine's Day event. Within the 2 days, everyone will be taught how to make chocolates, arranging or making roses, and the dance steps. On the Friday night, there will be a confession dance party; oh I love my plan…" Narumi Sensei explained half way and suddenly talking to himself.

"Now I know why he's so enthusiastic today." One of the students chuckled.

"Oh, back to the explanation, boys and girls, finally you got to confess to the person you love in front of the teachers! Oh, I'm such a great sensei! However, no confession is allowed before the party. If you get caught by Jinno Sensei, do not blame me for it. That's all, adieu!" He went off with his usual good bye kiss and his wink.

Natsume stood up with words coming out from his mouth, "What a stupid event…" and he walked off, along with Ruka and his friends.

Everyone looked at them as they walked out of the classroom.

"Hotaru, what are we suppose to do in Valentine's Day? I heard of it before but what does it actually mean?" Her question attracted everyone and away from Natsume and his gang.

Nonoko explained to her, "Mikan-Chan, it's a day when a girl gives a present to the boy she loves and the boy will also gives a present to the girl he loves."

"And what do you mean by love?" Mikan was quite simple minded that, she don't really know the meaning of love.

"Well…" Before Nonoko finished her sentences, Anna continued.

"It's when you see the boy you loves, you will blushed very badly, your heartbeat will be beating very fast and it's so fast that you can't speak your words properly in front him. Plus you got an urge to hug him."

"Just like when I saw Misaki-Sensei…" Anna and Nonoko thought about it.

"Just like when I saw Misaki-Sensei…" Kokoroyomi said their thoughts out.

"Kokoroyomi…!" The both of them screamed at him as they chased after him.

Mikan was thinking if she ever had those feeling before...

"I doubt you have it. You don't even know what love is." Hotaru answered for her.

"Hotaru…!" Mikan yelled.

Natsume opened the door, "Shut up, polka dots, I can even hear your voice a few miles away."

"Stop calling me Polka dots. My name is Mikan, all right!" Mikan yelled at him as he covered his ear.

"Sorry, I didn't hear a single thing." He went back to his seat.

As Mikan was about to yell at him once more, Ruka held her back and shook his head.

She sighed and carried on with her conversation while Ruka went to the back to accompany Natsume.

-Flash back-

"We will carry on taking a walk around the school, seeing you later." The rest of the gang walked off leaving Ruka and Natsume under Natsume "favourite" tree.

Ruka gave a soft smile and asked, "You do like her, don't you…?"

"What…are you… talking about?" He stammered.

"If you don't… why would you greet her and stammered when you answered my question?" Ruka grinned.

"Oh damn… I can't tell the truth… Ruka likes her…" Natsume was very worried as he knew he can't say the truth to break his heart.

"Not telling the truth because of me? Don't worry about me." He gave a little fake laugh.

"Ruka… You know… you are not good in lying…" Natsume started to get a little upset.

Ruka stopped, "I… I know I can't lie... but… I know she needs you more than me. You see…"

"Stop it, Ruka…" Natsume hoped that he will stop the conversation over Mikan.

Ruka continued, "She really needs you… more than me… Like the incident, which happened not…"

"Stop it! Ruka…!" Natsume shouted at him.

"I… I… I'm… sorry…" Ruka apologized as he looked down and fixed his eyes onto the ground.

Natsume stood up and sighed, "I should be the one to apologize. I'm just too hot-tempered. By the way it's Youichi's birthday on Wednesday of that week. Let's go and think about what to give him." He gave a little smile to Ruka which made Ruka felt more comfort than usual.

-End of flashback-

That night…

It was quite late, everyone was asleep but Hotaru was still in her room with her lights on to arrange the pictures she was going to sell on the next day.

As she was wondering about the pricing of the pictures, she saw something flying passed.

"Ruka…?" She asked herself whether if it was him.

She pulled out her upgraded gun and aimed at the flying object.

"Ah…!" Someone screamed as the person fell from the flying object and it sounded really like Ruka.

Before the person fell, the flying object actually flew below him and saved him.

"Oh… Is that eagle, after all it's not that stupid as I thought?" Hotaru talked to herself.

Ruka looked around for the direction where the great force had hit onto him.

"Aha! I knew it! It's her!" He commanded his eagle to fly to Hotaru's room.

He knocked onto her window and Hotaru smirked, showing him the picture of him when he was falling off from the eagle not long ago.

"Imai…!" Ruka roared.

"Eh… Nice one… More rabbits to be earned." Hotaru took more pictures of him.

Ruka got tired of it and knocked her window gently, "Please let me in… all right?"

"Good boy..." She opened her window for him.

Ruka sighed, alighted from his eagle and climbed in.

"How much should it cost…?" Hotaru asked Ruka or rather talking to her own.

"Imai…" Ruka gave out an irritated tone.

Hotaru looked at him, "She's stubborn and slow. You need to be more obvious than obvious."

"What do you mean more obvious than obvious?" Ruka was confused over her words.

"Another slow one…" Hotaru muttered.

"Oh… okay…. I know what you trying to say. It's about Mikan… right?" Ruka took a seat on her sofa as he took a look around the room.

"What are you planning to do…?" She asked him.

"I… well… you see… Natsume…"He stammered and doesn't dare to face Hotaru.

She cut off and continued his words, "Natsume likes her."

As Ruka was about to stood up and said something, suddenly there was a black out in her room.

Ruka accidentally tripped onto something and knocked onto something and...

As Hotaru switched on the special torchlight she was holding onto, Ruka then realized that he had actually tripped and collapsed onto Hotaru.

He was so shocked that he was unable to move until…

"Baka, Baka, Baka!" Hotaru shot him with her half upgraded gun which actually gave out more force than the previous one.

The great force pushed him against the wall of the room.

"Gomen… Imai…" He blushed as he apologized.

"Be more careful next time, or I won't be using this but that." She pointed at her latest invention, the cute yet evil and powerful cannon.

He went to the window, gave out a whistle and the eagle came under his command.

"Sorry to disturb you, see you tomorrow." Ruka went off along with his red face.

"Goodness me… Why do I have this feeling for Imai? I think I didn't have enough sleep…" He flew back to his room on his eagle while he was suspecting his feeling for Imai.

The next morning…

"Hotaru…!" Before Mikan gets to hug her, Hotaru stopped her by using her hand and pushed Mikan's forehead before she can go nearer to her.

"That's great, Hotaru! You didn't use your bakagun today." Iinchou was kind of delighted that he thought she had actually quit using violence on Mikan.

Hotaru replied to him with her same usual tone of speaking, "It's still under upgrading as I find that the previous gun is not that useful on her and I'm upgrading to avoid some hentai..." She glared Ruka.

Sweat drops appeared on his head.

"Ohayo Iinchou…!" She greeted him as he pulled her up.

Iinchou pulled her up, "Ohayo, Mikan-Chan."

"Ohayo Ruka Pyon and Natsume…!" Mikan greeted them.

Ruka greeted her back with shyness but that shyness was not the effect of seeing Mikan but… Hotaru, "Ohayo, Sakura."

Mikan went over to Ruka and asked him, "What happened to you and Hotaru? Why did she call you... hentai?"

"Eh…! Nothing! Nothing…!" Ruka replied her nervously while Natsume was laughing inside him.

"Shut up and go back to your seat, Polka dots. You don't wish to make me say the pattern of your undergarment for today, right?" Natsume snapped and held onto a little flame on his finger, preparing to attack Mikan's hair if she dared to say another word out of her mouth.

Narumi-Sensei came in, "Ohayo mina!"

"Ohayo Narumi-Sensei" Everyone went back to their seats and greeted him.

"The scripts are here and it's time for me to choose the characters! I have the list of characters here and a box of each and everyone's name inside. Everyone knows what I am going to do now,right? Let's begin!" He started to draw the names out with luck and unknown.
