said our love kept growing

wanted to run away cause the situation's in the past

love never really last

CHAPTER 1: First Day

"Are you serious about this?" she asked, her voice was quivering, her eyes brimming with tears.

"Gomen." was the reply he could only give to her. He was hurt, seeing her cry like that.

He tried to comfort her by placing his hand on her shoulder. But she wouldn't have any of it. She pushed his hand away and ran out of the cozy restaurant.

'Tsubasa no baka…' she cried in her head as she ran outside, her tears flowing freely from her eyes..

----

It was already 7:30 am but Mikan was still sleeping. She was tossing and turning in her sleep. Her face showed pure suffering. Her cheeks still had traces of her dried up tears from the night before.

"Mikan sweetie! It's time to get up! You'll be late for school!!" her dad called out from the kitchen.

She opened her eyes, but felt the sun's rays sting her still blurry vision. She stood up and looked at herself in the mirror.

"WHHHAAAATTTT TTHHHEEEE?!" she screeched in horror. 'Why is my face like this?! Did I… Did I cry the whole night?' she thought to herself. She washed her face then stared at the mirror in front of her.

'He's not worth your time or your tears.' those words rang in her head.

"Souda! I shouldn't cry over Tsubasa. He's… he's not worth my time and my tears. That guy is totally right!" she smiled to herself.

'Now I remember clearly. Yesterday, I thought everything would be perfect. It was sunny and I had a date with Tsubasa later on.'

'But then…' her heart ached a bit while remembering.

'It started to rain heavily. I had a sink feeling in the gut that it was a sign. A sign of bad luck and my misfortune.'

'I hated rain. I've hated it eversince mom died. Rain took her away from me. And every time it rained, it was a sign of bad luck for me.' She sighed heavily.

'Yesterday was not an exception too. Tsubasa… When we were inside the restaurant, he was acting all weird and all…'

'And that was when… that was when my heart broke… for the first time.'

Flashback

"Are you serious about this?" she asked, her voice was quivering, her eyes brimming with tears.

"Gomen." was the reply he could only give to her. He was hurt, seeing her cry like that.

He tried to comfort her by placing his hand on her shoulder. But she wouldn't have any of it. She pushed his hand away and ran out of the cozy restaurant.

'Tsubasa no baka…' she cried in her head as she ran outside, her tears flowing freely from her eyes..

"Mikan… This is a mess." he lightly scratched his messy black hair then turned away.

Meanwhile, Mikan is still aimlessly running while tears overflowed from her beautiful hazel eyes. 'Let's break up Mikan.' She continued to run until she reached the street that is on the opposite of the gates of the park.

She wiped her tears a little. 'The park? Souda ne… I used to go here with mom when I was still a kid.' She smiled a little upon remembering her mom. 'It always cheered me up.'

She hesitantly took a step forward. But no soon after she took another, a black car stopped just in time before it could hit her.

She fell backwards, landing on the wet surface of the road. It didn't matter anyway, she was already soaked since she ran outside while rain poured down. Suddenly, the door of the black car opened. Revealing a very handsome youth with raven hair and attractive red orbs. He walked towards her and helped her up.

"Watch where you're going. Polka dots." He said after he helped her up.

She wondered why he would call her polka dots. He didn't know her and she didn't know him. It was very weird to call a person you've just met, polka dots.

Then she finally realized what he was talking about. She covered her skirt with both her hands protectively while saying "HENTAI!!"

He smirked. "Who would want to look at your underwear intentionally, ugly?"

Mikan's POV

UGLY?! Did he just call me ugly?! Oh I am so gonna kill this guy!! But I have to admit that his smirk just made him more handsome. Hmm… that black sleeveless shirt with a red flame design and those khaki pants suit him really we--…

Wait… scratch handsome, that is so not true… and scratch that whole thought!!

I was about to insult him back but he was already going back to his car. Before leaving, he said, "Don't cry over that worthless guy. He's not worth your time or your tears."

I was taken aback by that. All I could do was nod at him. After that he left, leaving me feeling better.

End of Flashback and POV

'hmm… but I wonder who he really is…' she thought as she ran towards the gates of the University.

"Ohayou minna!" she greeted my classmates as she entered the classroom.

"Ohayou Mikan-chan!" Anna and Nonoko greeted back. They took our seats and class started.

"Minna-san, ohayou!!" said Narumi-sensei, their teacher with undeniably outrageous taste in clothing as he entered the room while prancing around like an idiot. Everyone just sweat dropped in response.

"I have good news for you! We have new exchange students!! YAY!" he cheered by himself. Everyone continued to sweat drop.

Seeing that he's cheering by himself like the idiot he is, he continued, "Ahem! They came all the way from England so please give them a pleasant stay! Come in please, Nogi Ruka-kun and Hyuuga Natsume-kun!"

With that, two youths entered the classroom. One had blonde hair and blue eyes while the other had raven hair and red eyes. The girls squealed upon seeing that both are definitely good-looking.

"Hajimemashite minna! I'm Nogi Ruka." The blonde introduced as he bowed slightly.

"Hyuuga Natsume." The raven haired plainly said.

The girls squealed while the guys had mixed feelings. Mikan on the other hand, was still wrapped up on her own thoughts that she didn't notice her classmates' reactions.

"Ne, Mikan-chan! The one with raven hair is more good looking ne? What do you think?" Anna whispered. Mikan didn't answer. She's too occupied with her thoughts.

"Ne… Mikan-chan? You ok?" she nudged her friend.

"huh?" Mikan had finally snapped out of her trance. "A-… Oh! Yeah… I'm fine! Really!!" she smiled to her friend who was still looking worried.

She took her gaze from her friend to the front of the classroom where she can see the two new exchange students. From the one with blonde hair and blue eyes and the one with raven hair and red… "eh?"

"EH?! You're the..." she exclaimed while pointing at the raven haired guy.

"Natsume, do you know her?" Ruka asked. His voice audible only to Natsume.

"hn." was his reply.

"Eh? Mikan-chan? You know Natsume-kun? Ja! That decides it! You'll be his partner! Be sure to give him a tour of the university!" Narumi announced, still as perky as ever. The girls had broken hearts while the guys complained. No doubt Mikan is popular in her own rights.

"For Ruka-kun…" he looked around the classroom and found the quiet Imai Hotaru writing something in her notebook. "Imai-san will be your partner!"

For a moment time stopped. Everyone gasped as they looked at Imai Hotaru, a.k.a. the Ice Queen of the National Alice University. She stopped writing momentarily to look at their teacher, then back to what she was doing. Everyone let out a sigh of relief, leaving the poor Ruka confused with what was happening.

Lunch Time

"Come on Mikan-chan! It's not THAT bad!" Nonoko said.

"Yeah! I mean, having such a handsome partner like Natsume-san is a blessing from Kami-sama! He's even more good-looking than Tsubasa!" cheered Anna.

'Tsubasa' Mikan could feel her heart ache with pain the moment Anna mentioned his name. Even though she promised to forget him, it's not that easy since love isn't a choice you can freely make. She knows she still loves him but they've already broken up. Her eyes hid under her bangs, she tried to hide the agony in her heart. She didn't want her friends to worry because of her.

"Oi, polka dotted panties girl." Natsume called out.

It was like a fuse in Mikan's ears. "WHAT?!" she blurted out, her face reddening from embarrassment.

"Aren't you supposed to be some sort of guide that should help me when I need help? Well, I need to go to the cafeteria." he replied in his stoic tone.

'Darn that guy!! I swear I'll…' she cursed under her breath. Nevertheless, she took a deep breath and said, "Ok Natsume-san, follow me."

"hn. Whatever you say polka dots." He teased.

She stopped walking, her blood was boiling, he can definitely piss her off with his comments. She wanted to get back at him or even hit him with something but it was not possible. He's like a guest while she's the unlucky host, well at least for her.

"Natsume, you better stop teasing her." Ruka nudged.

"tch, whatever."

Before they could leave the room, something or rather, someone grabbed Ruka's hand. He turned to see who it was, finding that it was…
