"Mikan! Over here, I saved you a seat."

Mikan went over and sat next to Ruka.

"Where's Natsume?" asked Mikan.

Ruka rolled his eyes. It was always about Natsume. Were they a couple?

"Ruka, are you okay?" Mikan asked with concern. She leaned closer to him. Her hair fell over her shoulders and she looked so pretty. No wonder Natsume liked her.

"Yes, I'm...fine. Look, Natsume's here"

Natsume came out from the boys' locker room.
"Natsume!" Mikan waved to him.

He walked towards them. Mikan stood up and gave him a peck and Ruka looked at his feet.

"Aren't you going to get on the track, Ruka"

"Yes, I was waiting...for you," "Okay, let's go"

"Bye, Mikan. See you in class"

-------------------------------------------------
In the locker room.

"Natsume, are you going out with Mikan?" Ruka asked with hesitation.

Natsume did not answer for a while.

"Yeah, is that a problem"

"No, I just...does it change things between...us"

Another pause.

"No, its doesn't"

Ruka brightened up "Good! Let's seal it with a kiss!"
