"Last Christmas, I gave you my heart

But the very next day, you gave it away

This year, to save me from tears

I'll give it to someone special"

CHAPTER 2 "The Mysterious Note"

"I'm…sorry?" she read.

The note was hand-written but she couldn't identify who wrote it.

'Hm…I wonder who gave this to me…' and then it hit her.

"Maybe Hotaru can identify," she said as she ran to her best friend's room.

KNOCK. KNOCK.

Hotaru opened the door and saw the expression of her favorite brunette.

"What do you want?" the lavender-eyed inventor asked with blank emotion on her face.

"Hotaru, I found a note on my desk just now," Mikan gave the note to the inventor.

"And what do you want me to do?"

"I want to find out who sent that to me…" she said.

Hotaru looked at her friend. It seemed like she really needed to know.

Hotaru turned around and said, "It's for free this time."

Mikan smiled and hugged her best friend saying, "Thank you, Hotaru. You're the best!"

Using one of Hotaru's inventions, she scanned the note for fingerprints but none. The one who wrote it must've been really careful so that no one would figure out his or her identity.

Therefore, this person must've already suspected that Mikan would go to Hotaru.

"Mikan," said Hotaru.

"Did you find out who gave that note to me?" she asked as she stood up from the black couch located on the left side of Hotaru's room.

"Apparently…not," she said.

"Oh," Mikan looked at her feet.

"But I figured out something, though."

"Really? What did you figure out?" asked the brunette.

"That the person who sent it to you is someone that you know," said Hotaru as she kept the invention she used away.

Then the lavender-eyed girl faced Mikan.

"I'm going to study this note more," she said, "This is kind of interesting and I may earn a lot of money."

Mikan smiled, "Thanks again so much, Hotaru."

She waved goodbye to her friend and said 'Goodnight'.

She headed to her room and closed the door. Looking outside her window, she saw the stars and remembered that day.

She sat at her bed. And started to cry.

'I promised myself, the day after you left, that I'd never cry again. But remembering that day over and over makes me feel that those days of our togetherness shall forever disappear.'

More tears flowed down to her cheeks.

"The Feeling Of Being Alone, Used

And Deceived

Is Truly Unbearable.

You Feel That You're Carrying The World

On Your Shoulders And

You're Traveling The World Of Sadness

Alone.

And So Now, Behind These Fake Smiles,

Another Me,

Waiting For My Sun To Shine…"

'Natsume, I still love you…'

Mikan couldn't sleep that night. She figured something wasn't right---that something was going to happen, but what?

The students were asked to go to the classroom that day, but not to have classes. They were there to decorate the room for the Christmas Party. And as expected, Mikan was the first one there. To keep herself busy, she already started decorating the tables and chairs.

Meanwhile, outside the room, a boy was staring at her. His hands were in his pockets and his back was leaning on the wall. No expression was shown on his face and moments later, he started to walk away.

A little bit later, students started to come to the room and help decorate it.

Hotaru, Anna, Nonoko, Yuu, Koko, and the other students were now there. The class was complete…except for Mr. Narumi, their homeroom teacher.

"Have any ideas where Naru has gone to this time?" asked one of the students.

Mikan heard this and said, "I'm sure he's on the way."

She was right. Right after she said that, the door opened and there was Mr. Narumi, smiling his way to the teacher's table.

"Student's listen up!" he announced.

The students stopped what they're doing to listen to the teacher.

"We're going to have an old classmate join us again!" he said cheerfully.

'An old…classmate?' Mikan thought as she and her other classmates stared at the boy who entered the room.

He had raven-black hair and crimson eyes. He was the person they thought had disappeared. He was none other than…

'N-Natsume?'
