Mikan's POV
'Yes, okay, I understand. Yes. Thank you.' I sighed whilst putting down the phone. Narumi-Sensei looked at me after realizing I was finished.
'How'd it go?' He asked, genuinely concerned. I smiled at him; after all, he was like a kind older brother to me.
'I'm going home!' I cheerfully said. He didn't seem very convinced by my happy answer, but in all honesty, I wasn't sure either, whether I'm happy or sad about the fact I'm going home. I know I've only been at Alice Academy for a year, but it really feels like home now. And all the friends I'd made, like Ruka, Yu – also known as Class Rep or Linchou, Nonoko and Anna. I'd even miss Natsume, I'm pretty sure he doesn't hate me as much as he used to - which is good… Although, I still think he'll be slightly relieved I'm leaving… Oh no, I'm going to be leaving Hotaru as well! I'm going to miss her so much…
'Well, I'm sure when your grandpa gets better, you could come back to Alice Academy.' He smiled reassuringly at me.
'Narumi-Sensei… You're so nice' I said before I run-jump-hugged him – my special signature move. He just laughed and hugged me back before lifting me up and spinning around. 'Hehehe, faster! Faster!'
As the spinning came to a stop, Narumi-sensei froze once he saw him. I looked over to where his gaze ended, only to see the one and only – Natsume, glaring at…Narumi-Sensei. Narumi-Sensei gently and slowly put me down before running away. I just stood there watching him running like his life depended on it - c'mon, he's not that scary Narumi-sensei I thought to myself while pouting. After Narumi-Sensei had vanished from view, I turned around to face Natsume, who was now only a few steps away from me.
He smirked, and suddenly I was surrounded by fire. Gasping as I fell down from the surprise of the sudden flames. He only laughed harder. Even though I'm used to this, knowing soon I won't be able to see him, I tasted the familiar taste of salt. Great, I'm crying. I tried putting on a bold face before looking up at him.
Natsume's POV
I was having an averagely average day. Just walking around. I had previously lost that annoying girl, Sumire. God she's about as annoying as they can get. Seriously! As I was walking down the hall of which the phones you can use to call reception only, my eyes instantly spotted a certain girl. She was currently laughing her ass off whilst being held in the air by that annoying teacher Narumi who was currently spinning her around. I just stood there, glaring at him, or her. Whichever, I don't really mind since I don't really like either of them. Then why are you still here? If you really didn't like her, you wouldn't be waiting here for her to see you. I quickly pushed that thought away.
Once he slowly stopped spinning her around he finally saw me. His face lost color, and he slowly started putting a confused Mikan down. After about 3 seconds he was running away as fast as he could. Mikan just stood there watching him; I took this chance to get closer to her. She turned around after he was out of sight. Just having her this close to me makes me get annoyed. Her stupid hairstyle: that you know really suits her. Her annoying smile: that you love seeing. And how she always gets upset over the smallest things: only because you're always such a dick to her.
Okay, I seriously need to get checked up. Those thoughts are getting on my nerves. Irritated, I took it out on her, flames rose all around her. She gasped before falling over. She fell silent for a few seconds. Before she looked up at me, teary eyes. She didn't move, she just stayed down, her gaze fixed on mine. This isn't the normal "Happy-Go-Lucky" girl I know. Not that I should care, I mean, she's the most pathetic girl I know. She's already 11 years old, yet she still cries her eyes out from just grazing her knee. After a while, she stood up, and walked away from me.
That was the last time I saw Mikan Sakura.
