Hello, Kitykat556 here on my new account! I have like seven stories that I have typed, but are too lazy to edit/add. Tehee anyways, please read and review. Some OCs to cause drama, and most characters are out of character.

Italics are the text in dreams.

Summary: Dreams, that's how they meet. But what happens when those dreams turn into reality? Only bad can come, right? NxM, AU.

Paring: NatsumexMikan, KokoxSumire

Disclaimer: I do not own Gakuen Alice

In all of my dreams, there is a girl. A girl who had hazel orbs and auburn hair. She had told me her name, Mikan Sakura. I had reciprocated saying my name was Natsume Hyuuga. She is seventeen, just like me. But I highly doubt that the girl is real. The girl herself, is an optimist, and always has a smile on her face. Throughout my dreams she has never even show an expression other than happiness. To be honest, it was quite annoying.

Mikan is the complete opposite of me, but somehow, I enjoy her company. For some reason, I felt myself opening up to her. I told her all about my parents' death, and she just comforted me as she embraced me. Something about her just melted my frozen heart, that only Ruka could penetrate through.
(Put line here)

There is this boy in my dreams. A boy who possessed crimson eyes and raven hair. We had exchanged names. His was Natsume Hyuuga and we were both seventeen. However, I do not believe this boy is for real. He is just a figment of my imagination. The boy himself, is a pessimist and quite stoic. Throughout my dreams, he has never showed any sign of jubilance.

He is somewhat quite similar to me, although he does not know it. We are both struggling and are in pain, but I mask it with happiness and he does it with out emotion. However, I have seen a different side of him. Whenever he talks about his family and his parents' death, he is sincere. I respect this boy. He can let his real emotions shine through his mask, and that is something I could never do myself.

Never once have I told this boy about my parents and how they died. I couldn't do that without sobbing. To me, displaying tears is a sign of weakness, and there was only one person who could see me weak, and that was Hotaru. Hotaru was the only person who could see behind my charade. At first she told me to just show my real self, but she gave up after my constant refusal. Someday I would love to be as strong as Hotaru and Natsume, but all I can do now is hope for the best.

I sighed before I let myself drift to sleep, and I hope that I would get to see Mikan again.

"Hello Natsume," her voice was ringing in my head. Her voice was very peaceful and made me feel calm.

However, I kept a straight face and replied, "Hn."

She flashed a wide smile, "Natsume, you don't need to be so grumpy all the time. You should smile."

"Yeah, right," I said rolling my eyes. Mikan smiled at me once more, but this time, it seemed fake, like a mask. However, I decided to ignore this. Mikan would not make a phony smile.

"Oh, well at least..." Mikan began, "Never mind." Mikan sighed, but still kept her smile in place.

I didn't know what to say, so we both remained silent for numerous hours. We started into each other's eyes, and for the first time her eyes did not appear joyous.

'Beep, beep' I heard coming from Mikan's direction

She gazed at me with a smile plastered on her face "Sorry that's my alarm. I must get up now." And with that, she had disappeared, leaving me alone to think to myself. The only thing that remained in my mind was the sadness dwelling in her eyes. In fifteen minutes time, my alarm went off as well.

I arose out of bed, not excited to start the new semester at Gakuen Alice. Great, I have another couple of months with Narumi as my teacher. All that man does is cross dress and frolic. Nobody can be as fruity as that guy.

"Natsume, are you up? School starts in ten minutes, and I don't want to be late on my first day of school," my best friend Ruka said as he knocked on my door.

I opened the door and replied, "Okay, come on let's go."

When we reached class we sat in our seats, which happened to be right next to each other. Within five minutes our homeroom teacher frolicked in, "Bonjour class. We have three new students today."

A boy and two girls immerged from the door. The first girl had a stoic expression, raven hair and violet eyes. The boy had icy blue hair with a set of eyes matching his hair color. The last was a girl with hazel orbs and auburn hair, one that strangely resembled Mikan.

The first to speak was the violet eyed girl, "Hotaru Imai, 17. Don't bug me."

The boy smiled as he placed his arm around the brunette making her face flush, "My name is Mannen Kirtoza."

The girls started shouting, "Mannen-kun we love you!" How annoying.

Mannen gave a sincere smile as he said, "Sorry girls I'm taken, and that goes same with this girl right here." He stated as he rested one arm on the student's shoulder

That Mikan girl finally spoke up, "Mikan Sakura. Age seventeen. I hope we can be good friends." Holy crap! The girl was Mikan. The same one that has been in my dreams since I was six.

"Narumi-sensi, where do Mannen, Hotaru and I sit?" the brunette questioned

"Imai-san you will sit next to Yuu Tobita. Mannen-kun, you will sit next to Mikan-chan and Mikan-chan you will be sitting next to Natsume Hyuuga. " Her eyes widened after hearing my name and so I smirked. "Oh, since I have a meeting, it's free period!"

Imai then walked to her seat in the front of the room, while Mikan and Kirtoza walked to the back of the room and Mikan sat beside me.

"Hello Natsume," she greeted with the same neutral smile on her face.

We stared at each other once again and I just muttered, "Hn." However, the class was quite rambunctious.

"Sakura knows our Natsume-sama!" The girls began shrieking. "And she is calling him by his first name."

"Plus, she has connections with the new hot boy, Mannen," a girl, Luna Koizumi smirked as he heard every single word that came out of the blonde's mouth. "Yeah, she does, she's my girlfriend," Mannen once again put his arm around Mikan's shoulders and her face became brighter than a tomato.

For an unknown reason, I became very irked, "Flirting in the classroom is not allowed" All heads turned toward me as I had said this. This could have been a big mistake on my part.

Koko, one of my closest friends, came up behind me, "Someone's jealous, huh?" I couldn't help but twitched and looked over to Mikan as her face had turned a brighter shade of pink. I then made a mental note to give Koko a piece of my mind.

"Yeah right Koko, I don't even know this girl. She was just annoying me by calling me by my first name without even knowing me" I simply said, and my heart cringed inside. My gaze drifted over to Mikan, and for the first time I had seen, her smiled faded. Maybe what I said affected her more than I thought.

Thank you all for reading. And thank you to blackcat9517, for being a beta-reader for this chapter, and also for the summary.
