Right Here Waiting
"Koko, why didn't you call me last night? You said you're going to call me? I even fell asleep in the living room just by waiting your call. What's wrong with you?" Mikan asked her boyfriend. They were having their lunch under the Sakura tree. She received no replies from the blonde boy. "Hey are you even listening to me?!" Mikan is really frantic about her boyfriend's action. "A simple reply please?" –No reply- "Koko!" "Can you shut up for a minute?" "Why are you like that? What's wrong with you?" "I hate this you're being too clingy, you have so many complaints, it's really annoying now you know. Mikan, there's nothing wrong with me; I'm trying to reach your standards but whenever I caught up with you I'll hear your complaints about me again. You are my girlfriend, not my mother. We always fight because of your stupid complaints. I'm lowering my pride for you, we'll made-up then there you go again. I'm growing tired of this." "What are you saying? Are you breaking up with me?" "I'm afraid so. I'm sorry." Mikan's eyes started to well-up with tears. "If that is what you want." Mikan whispered. "Sorry for bothering you." She bowed then ran away tears running down her cheeks.
Six months later –
Mikan can't focus on the class. She just got an unexpected confession from the most mysterious guy in the school. 'I Like you.' the guy said. "What? I uh I-" then the school bell rang. "I'm sorry I still have class to attend to" Mikan bowed then left. 'What if he won't like me anymore after knowing my attitude? I liked him too since we've been chatting for a month now. But why does it felt like this is wrong.' Mikan banged her head on her desk. "Miss Sakura, Are you listening?" "Ah yes sensei." "Then answer this equation." Mikan didn't have a hard time answering the equation on the board. She's the best in class after all. "I know you already know this but please pay attention to our class." "Yes sensei." Mikan went back to her seat
The class ended, students started leaving the room. "Are you sure you want to walk home alone?" Anna asked with a tinge of worry for her friend. Mikan smiled at them. "You guys go on. I think I would like to visit the library." She replied. "Suit yourself. Be sure you'll call me when you get home." Hotaru said emotionlessly. The three girls left Mikan. As soon as she finished packing her things she grabs her bag. "Ano, sensei.. Sorry for what happened awhile ago. Bye." She said then left the room as well. "Do you want a company to the library?" A man's voice asked. Mikan turned around to face the guy. She found a tall guy leaning on the wall. "Natsume-senpai, I wasn't really going to the library. I just want some time think things for myself." Mikan whispered the name of the guy then said the latter part enough for him to hear. "Do you want any company?" "Ano, Natsume-senpai it's alright. I don't want to bother you." Mikan said feeling uncomfortable. "Are you still thinking about what I said this morning?" Yes, indeed it's Natsume Hyuuga, the most mysterious guy in Alice academy confessed to the brunette. Well he's a year older than Mikan. Mikan blushed madly as the two started walking out the school ground. "Ano, not really I-" "It's alright with me. Maybe this was my karma for rejecting girls. But can we be friends?" "Senpai, I didn't mean to…" "Come on I told you it's alright with me." Natsume smiled at her. They went to a park; they were walking side by side uttering no word to the other. "Senpai, had you have any girlfriend?" She asked out of the blue. A long silence enveloped the two again; they had reached a very deserted part of the park. "I didn't mean to ask you such question. I'm sorry." She bowed her head very low, until she heard a chuckle from the raven boy. She lifted her head up to see what he was laughing about. "Mou senpai, I really don't get you" Mikan pouted cutely. Natsume patted the brunette's hair. "You're a very silly little girl, suddenly asking me such question." Natsume smiled at her. Mikan blushed madly again; It's the first time she saw her sempai smile like that. She heard from everyone that the infamous Natsume Hyuuga never smile nor laugh. Mikan flashed him a smile as well. The uncomfortable feeling she had been gone. But still the fact remains in her head, her senpai likes her. Natsume walk Mikan home. "Thank you for accompanying me Natsume-senpai. Good night." Mikan bowed. "Good night." Natsume said then walked away.
Since then, Natsume and Mikan became close. They often see each other. They are not really dating and all. They just want each others company like a senpai and a kouhai together. Or so Mikan thought. Natsume's feelings grew deeper as they knew about each other more. But does Mikan feel the same for him? or he will stay as a senior to her.
