Reading books and love songs.
Her nose twitched in a movement as if in reflex, but the moment she twitched her nose, she knew, she would annoy the hell out of him. The corner of her lips turned somewhat into a smirk of some sort and she shifted a bit in her seat. Her slender fingers knocked gently against the wooden table, audible to only him and her. She looked at him.
His eyes glared directly at hers and his eyes jolted to the front of the class, where the teacher was writing equations and all that complicated things onto the board. His hand lifted during that time, and he slapped her, head on.
The sound was audible, though the class took no notice of it. They had a test to prepare for.

"Are you mad?" Natsume whispered to Mikan as they gathered their books to their next class hurriedly.
"No, I'm incredibly intelligent." She muttered not looking his way. "That's why I'm in this class, remember?"
Natsume snorted and walked out of the classroom while Mikan clumsily followed.
"I can't believe that you want to participate in the talent quest when our class is having our quarters!" Natsume grumbled.
Quarters, for the smart class was a test during each quarter of the year to see how they have improved. Any student who had achieved lower marks than their last quarter would fail and move down.
Mikan shrugged. "I never really liked smart class anyway. I think I want to do something I enjoy."
Natsume rolled his eyes. "And you were the one that told me you wanted to be the smartest in the school."
"Well, Mr-right. I changed my mind after I met you." For some reason, that sounded utterly – weird to both and they looked away.
"Hn." Natsume grunted.

"The thing about you Mikan," Natsume muttered. "You have so little vanity."
"What, am I meant to be as ego inflated as you?" Mikan mumbled back sarcastically.
"It wouldn't hurt." Natsume chuckled softly and began copying down the notes from the board.
"Having a low self esteem wouldn't either." Mikan growled.
"Yeah," He murmured "All your risking is depression and a few eating disorders."
Mikan rolled her eyes and continued on her notes about Romeo and Juliet and Pride and Prejudice.
"You over exaggerate."
"Hardly," Natsume have making an error in his notes, stole Mikan's eraser. She let him since there was no point arguing about it. "I would have thought having a massive fan-club 'oh Mikan-sama' would have boosted your love for yourself more."
"Oh, like it did for you?" she said sarcasm flaming her speech "Wait, weren't you always the vain child who loved himself?" she scratched her chin pretending to think it over. "Yeah, that sounds about right," She looked him in the eye and smirked.
"Shut-up now Hyuuga, Study."
"You just read my mind Sakura," The teacher muttered angrily. "The whole class is sick of your pointless conversations – quarters are coming up."
"When aren't they coming?" she muttered to herself. Natsume chuckled.
"That's for us to find out." He winked at her and Mikan felt a bolt of electricity flow through her.
"Didn't I tell you two to shut up already?" The teacher said.
"Sorry," The muttered in sync.

"Look what happened," Mikan complained. "You got us in trouble, twice."
Natsume rolled his eyes, his fingers tapping on his binder. "You make it seem like you're an angel all the time."
Mikan grinned, "Aren't I?"
"Hardly," Natsume scoffed "You get in trouble 100% of the time."
"Yeah right," she muttered.
"I take that back, your vanity is soaring incredibly."
"Huh," Mikan mused. "How do you know that?"
"You think you're such an angel."
"Well I am."
"Uhuh, I bet the teacher thinks exactly the same." He muttered sarcastic.
"Teacher's cannot see the true potential of a child like I do," Mikan growled.
He raised an eyebrow and swiftly flicked her in the head.
"Oh? So what am I oh mighty see-er?"
She flinched and slapped him on the arm. "Natsume."
In his annoying yet seductive stupid captain obvious voice he muttered,
"I didn't know that."
Mikan rolled her eyes and sidestepped in front of him, blocking his path.
"You're a frigging God." She mocked sardonically. "Everyone thinks you're such a hottie."
"Well, aren't I?" he countered.
"No," she murmured softly. "You can't rule the world."
"The female population perhaps?"
"No."
"Aw damn, I guess I'm left with you." He winked, looking playful but his crimson eyes longed for a reaction.
Mikan blinked, did a double take and sighed.
"Must be a shame." She mused, her brown locks of hair swaying slowly.
"I'm happy I'm not a God."
"Thought you wanted to rule the whole female population."
He smiled lightly, his eyes shining for a second.
"I already got the one I want."
Mikan stared at Natsume, "Your mother?"
Natsume chuckled and whacked her head lightly.
"Ignorance isn't going to get you anywhere Mikan."
"Haven't you heard you idiot." She muttered under her breath. "Ignorance is bliss."
A playful grin flashed upon his handsome features enhancing it 3 times more.
"You haven't even tried bliss." He pecked her lightly on her cheek, burning into her skin like fire.
"Stop it," she growled. "Quarters are coming soon, you should be thinking about that."
Natsume reached for her cheek, once again leaving the burning sensation tingling on her skin, "When isn't Quarters on?"

Mikan fumbled along the corridor, grasping her belongings tightly to herself. She moved in a way, which wasn't quite clumsy, yet it wasn't quite elegant.
Natsume had said that she walked stupidly.
Mikan sighed, her eyebrows furrowed together. So, she wasn't the most athletic, so what? How on earth does a person walk stupidly?
"I don't know," Natsume had said smugly with that annoying smirk on his face, "You should know, since you do it so well."
If Mikan hadn't been holding her pages and pages of carefully written and organised notes in her hand, she would've punched him right there.
"Oi," a voice grumbled deeply. "What the hell are you doing with all those books?"
In a flash, Natsume was by her side swiftly grabbing books that were falling out of her hands.
"Studying?"
"Surprising, really."
Mikan turned her brown irises towards Natsume. "Why ask then Captain Obvious?"
Natsume sighed and continued walking. Mikan nodded, knowing his loss. "That's right."
"You don't usually study with this much books." Natsume noted.
Mikan smiled gingerly. "Well if I study ahead now, I'll be able to relax for the Talent Quest." She inclined her head, acknowledging Natsume's annoyance. "I know, Quarters are coming up." She looked at him, her eyes sly. "But you know it too right," She winked enjoying her tease. "When aren't Quarters on?"
She laughed, a gentle, content laugh and skipped ahead to the library.
Natsume blinked once, and opened his mouth to talk. "Is that a yes?"
Mikan spun around, still prancing about like a total idiot. "I don't know is it?"
"It's your call."
Mikan shrugged. "Quarters are an important aspect to our class's curriculum."
Natsume rolled his eyes, "Funny, I thought you didn't care."
"I never said I did." Mikan murmured, "I don't have to tell the world I care."
Natsume stared after her running figure in the distance and figured that it was a double meaning.
Helplessly lovestruck xox.
