Hello! This is my new story! I immediately wrote it after having a dream about it but Mikan was me and Natsume was a guy. Hope all of you enjoy it.
I don't own Gakuen Alice.
(Mikan's POV)
I look to my back for a short while, hoping he gave up chasing me in the midst of people. No such luck. The guy was really persistent. Plan B.
I took out some cloth from my bag and went to the nearest ally. The guy was a bit far behind than me so it gave me some time to change.
I change from jeans to a long skirt and the sweater to a blouse. I let my hair down from the high pony tail and put all of the cloth I was wearing into my bag. I manage to have some time to put on some contacts lenses so that my brown eyes wouldn't be notice. When I was sure I was perfectly disguise to appear again, I walk out of the ally and decide to face him and not run or avoid him to avoid suspicion.
I tried to act nonchalant when I passed him. I thought it worked but proved wrong when my heart almost stopped beating when somebody hold me back.
I swift around to look but I was almost 100 percent sure I knew who it was. It was the raven haired guy, Natsume Hyuuga.
I pulled my hand back but he didn't budge. His hold was starting to hurt but I ignore the pain. "Let me go, Hyuuga, or your gonna be next on my list." I hissed, hoping he would get it.
"No" and there's the answer.
When I was sure it was futile to resist when he was holding me this strong, I just stop and began staring at him.
(Natsume's POV)
Her face might have been blank but her eyes wasn't. The Mikan I know was strong but never strong enough for this kind thing. Her eyes almost seem pleading. Maybe to save her or let her go but whatever it was, I'm not gonna let this hand go.
Not anymore.
But no matter how I try, when I see her looking like that, I couldn't help but to accidentally let her go. She quickly jerk back and gave me a face. "Please, Natsume, stop chasing me and find your own happiness. I not good for you and I know that and that's why I wont let you get drag into this. Please, Natsume, go and just forget about me because I'm not backing down until I get my revenge on the one who killed my mother."
I didn't want to lash out at her but at that moment, after hearing those words, I couldn't it in anymore. "Then, what? What will happen when you find him?Mikan, let me come with you!"
I hold out my hand to her. "Take my hand, Mikan. I'll help you deal with him if that's, in the end, that you want. Please, I cant lose you. I cant. I finally found you and I just... I cant. Come with me and I'll help you. I have people that can help you in help us. I just...I just dont want to see you suffering all alone."
I know, its cliché but what was I suppose to say?! Hey nice to meet you after you disappear for years just so that you could find the guy who kill your mother and kill him. No! Of course I wont say that! The woman had always been stubborn.
And the most sad thing of all, after all that's said, she just turn around and walk away. Some kind of traveling group was walking between us. I couldn't get through them fast enough to catch her. When all of them had finally move on, I tried searching for her but obviously, she was gone and was probably off her way to somewhere out of the country.
After that, the only thing that was in my mind was her face when she hesitated before she left.
(Normal POV)
The 20 year old brunette run away to her apartment as fast as she could. Her feet wasn't tired much when she arrive at her house but even so, she still went crashing down onto the sofa after throwing her bag to wherever.
When it felt uncomfortable for her to think at the sofa, she slowly drag herself into her room and just plopped on the king-sized bed without locking the door. She lay her back on the bed and just stare at the ceiling, thinking of what just happen.
She never expect to see Natsume again face to face after 10 years of not seeing him. She would sometime watch him from afar and heard some news he was searching for her but she never knew that he could find her and right after she finish dealing with her target too.
She didn't want him to see her in that state, fresh from killing a guy that was totally useless for her. She love him so much that it was literally mortifying for him to see her in that state.
The thing that she regret the most when she saw him at the bazaar was when her mask slip for a while before she ran away when she hesitated on taking his hand or not.
She wanted to but she just cant risk him being with her. She was a target that everyone wants to get. She had been hunting and questioning people that might know who was the man that targeted her family 10 years ago.
Until now, she was nowhere near on knowing who was the murderer. Everyone that probably has something to do with the murderer or know something about him were all too scared to talk about him. The only clue she got from the guy she killed just now was that her mother's murderer was a high social man and filthy rich too.
So that narrow down her list to about one hundred man in Alice. Hell, the person might not be in Alice but she remembered the man having a sort of red eyes and only people from Alice has red eyes so the probability of the guy is an Alician is high and the fact he might even live here is also higher up.
Not many people that lives in Alice doesn't have red eye and Mikan is one them. She has a brown eyes because, from what her mother told her, her father was a foreigner and that he had a brown eyes. Her mother had red eyes but she didn't get it, so...yeah.
The people that are rich in Alice are plenty and its going to be tricky in finding which one is the culprit but she is definitely not going to rest until she get her revenge.
(Natsume's POV)
When I was sure I wont be finding her there anymore, I went back to my apartment. I just move into it and its pretty small but enough for me to live in.
I'm not like other snobby rich kids that cant live with a giant plasma tv or a PS2 or whatever there is a snobby rich kid these days usually have in the hands.
Sure my parent are the wealthiest in Alice but what do I care? Yes my father is the top business tycoon in the world and my mother being a supermodel so what? That's them, not me. I'm just your normal 21 year old bachelor who's planning to get the woman he loves which may I add is an assassin and is obsessed in getting her revenge.
Yeah...that's normal for ya.
My body is sweating from the freaking heat of the summer so I filled my bath tub with cold waters. I stripped my self and plunge in the sweet strawberry scented bath.
I further slipped down and let my hand rest on the either side of the tub. Ahh...nice...It'll kill my pride to say this, though I've done it already just now at the bazaar, but I cant live without a bath tub. I just cant.
Well...I might if I was with Polka but never alone. I mean, for anyone who has a bath tub in the house, they'll agree with me. Uhuh, I nod.
I was about to doze of when I remembered that I have to look the information I gathered about Polka a few days ago.
Just so you all solidify in your head that I'm not a snobby rich kid, I happen to gather all these information on my own. Well, maybe some help here there by my best friend and his girlfriend who happen to be a hell of a blackmailer queen. If it wasn't because my dad gave me a lot of money every month, I would have been poor by now.
So, in the end, I had to drag myself out of the bath tub and walk into my room with a bath robe on. I wasn't the type that quickly wore my shirts right after bath. I normally look at the data and drink a coffee while I'm at it.
Didn't know how much time have pass since my butt was glued to the chair with files in front of me but the sun had set by the time I finish taking my time, memorizing all the information before I burn them in the fireplace.
I got up from the kneeling stand that I usually do when I burn the and went into my room for a change of cloth. The bath robe are getting dampy...
I took out a pair of jeans and a shirt to go with it and put them on. I didn't bother to comb my hair because I know that without it, I'll still look awesome. Fan girls going nuts over me prove that fact. I mean, I know some of them must keep some kind of voodoo doll of me with them.
Shivers...
Since I was too lazy to cook today, I took my keys from the table and lock the door before I got out. Now, which restaurant should I go that wont mind me glaring at nothing? Hmm...
My train of thought was interrupted by a gasp from my back. No, it cant be. That voice... I slowly twist my back and saw the person that just gasp.
I couldn't believe my eyes, I even rub it hard to make sure I was going delusional. I move my leg to meet hers so that my body doesn't ache from the 180 degrees turning.
The girl put her hands on her mouth when I did that. A soft scream could be heard from behind her hands.
"Polka?"
"Natsume?" the both of us said it at the same time. If this were any other coincidence meeting, I would have laugh. Well, smile but that's not the point!
"I didn't know you live here?" my open mouth must have turn to a smirk at some point because her face turn from shock to the kind of face she does when I smirk knowingly.
"Crap. I forgot a neighbor was coming. Hell, I didn't even thought of you." she mutters. Her nose was all scrunched up.
I walk to her, not caring that she was ready to attack me at any moment and touch her nose. She wanted to jerk away but I had a firm grip on her shoulder.
All of a sudden, all the feeling I've bottled up for years came at once and I lean down to meet her lips with mine. I made it slow so that she could have chance to push me away, but we all know that that wont discourage me to do it anyway, and softly kiss her.
I pulled back and take a good look on her face and said with a the must-be-on-my-face-giant-smirk "Nice to meet you too."
So? Any comment? Flames? Anything?
