The moon was full and bright. Stars were sparkling in the night like colorful Christmas lights. The cold breeze sent chills down my skin. Silence screamed peacefully around me. It was indeed a pleasant evening.
I couldn't sleep. Don't ask me because I don't know why. Unknown thoughts lingered on my mind. It was as if I'm expecting something. Lying on the bed and closing my eyes didn't help either. I don't feel sleepy. Not at all.
I kept staring at the night sky as if I was waiting for a shooting star to appear. Suddenly, my phone rang. It took me a while to hear the sound of my ringing tone. Only a crazy person would call at this time of night, I thought. I grabbed the little electronic thing and press the 'answer' button. I didn't bother to see the caller's name.
"Yes? What can I do for you?" I asked.
"I uhm, why aren't you asleep yet?" the caller answered. My heart skipped a beat when I heard the voice. Why did he call me? It was very unusual. I tried to utter something but no words came out. I was plain speechless.
"Hello? Are you still there?" I heard him asked.
I tried hard to speak. "Uh yes, I'm still here. I can't sleep. Why'd you call? It's late already. Is something the matter?" Good thing my voice didn't sound weird. I was really nervous.
It took him a while before he answered. "I ,uh, I j-just want to say g-good night," he stuttered. He sounded nervous. Weird.
"Pardon?" I replied wanting to hear what he said once again.
"I just wanted to say good night," he repeated plainly. Wonder what happened on his mind. Is he drunk or something? This is totally not normal. But I admit it, his words sent butterflies on my stomach.
"Oh good night too…" I managed to say after a moment.
"Okay then, good night! I'll see you tomorrow. Sleep now," he said then hung up.
I grabbed and hugged the soft pillow beside me to keep myself from giggling so loud. He's so sweet.
I think I can sleep now. I closed my eyes once again then finally took the ride to dreamland. Boy, I love his weirdness. =)
Days have passed. He still calls me every night. Strange thing was he doesn't talk to me at school. I like him, a lot. One particular night, he called me. I was flabbergasted from what I heard on the other line.
"Polka…" he called.
"Yes?" I answered; used to the name he's calling me.
"I want to s-say something…" he said, saying it slowly.
"hmm? I'm listening," I replied.
"I know I always tease you. But I can't help it. I'm amused by the looks on your face. You make my world stop, whenever you smile. You laugh whenever you want to, but never want anyone to see you cry,"
"You're creepy…" I commented, totally lost for words.
"I just want y-you t-to know t-that,I l-l-lo…love y-y-"
"I love you too, Natsume!" I said, cutting off his reply. I was so astonished.
"I love you Mikan," he said sincerely. Those three words melted my hearted completely. It was the first time he said my name. After all these times, he also loved me back.
"Thanks," I uttered.
"No. Thank you… thanks for being there… for loving me," he said. Never knew he could be this sweet.
"I'll see you tomorrow, okay?" he added. "I love you."
This was the happiest night of my life. XD
