Prologue:
Mikan's POV
I often wonder to myself, whether I would have been much happier if I had not met him. However, as soon as such thoughts passed my mind. I would shudder involuntarily. He was everything worth my existence. I loved him. I really loved him.
He was tall, I only reached his chin. He had short but really sharp eyebrows. Whenever I teased him about his eyebrows being short, he would glare at me. His eyelashes were so long that it brushed his upper cheeks when he blinked. He had fair and soft skin. His crimson eyes dazzled me. I could keep on staring in those if I had could. His raven hair though was always kept messy, added to his beauty. To sum it all, he was handsome, absolutely gorgeous.
But he was so arrogant that, at first, I wanted to hit his face squarely. He was cold and emotionless to almost everyone. At school, the only one he bothered to talk to was Koko, except for the occasional teasing I get a dose of everyday. If one considered nodding and replying to questions as talking, then yeah, I could say he talked to Koko. Well, that was before he was acquainted to Ruka. I could not figure out why I was hurt about the fact he talked normally with my best friend and cousin but not me; teasing did not count, though I felt better that he did acknowledge me. Well that hurt changed to understanding when I came to know that he and Ruka knew each other from before.
My life, which had been so upside down, regained its normal course when he entered it. He helped me to appreciate what I had. He entered my life, rearranged it and then left. However, he made it a point I would not suffer. He knew he could not be with me, that he would leave. He knew that fact damn well. I had wondered why he kept on avoiding me. The thought that he hated me, had caused me to remain awake at night and cry myself to sleep. But I could have never guessed he carried such a big secret that, if it was made public, would shatter all the persons who loved him completely. Though I was quite miffed as to why he could not let me decide what I want and with who I want to be, I appreciated his effort to protect me and I knew the decision was not in his hand.
I did not care that he could not be with me forever. I wanted to spend everyday with him, not wasting even a tiniest moment, which was if he had allowed me. I quoted what he said whenever I was obstinate to remain with him, "Ichigo-kara, do you like to see me that much? Don't worry; I'll be here when you come back. Take a photo of mine if you want."
Those words, which I wanted to hear, always allowed me to leave him because I trusted him to keep his word. He was a man of his words. The way he entered my life, I would have never thought I would ever fall for him . . . yet I did, and hard.
The only thought that passed my mind before I go to sleep or start my day had always and will always be, 'Natsume, I love you. I'll always love you . . .'
I want you people to know my life story. I want you to understand how he was and what he meant to me. He was my everything.
The next destination is when I met him for the first time.
