Chapter 2: Resemblance

2 weeks passed and Mikan has fully recovered. Soon enough, she started going to class.

"Okay, everyone, starting today you'll have a new student, please come in." the teacher said as he signalled Mikan to go in.

Mikan took a deep breath and thought well, here goes nothing then she goes in the classroom.

"Nice to meet you everyone, I'm Sakura Mikan and starting today I'll be your new classmate. I hope we get along." Mikan stated as her introduction to the class.

Mikan went through the day trying to keep up with the lessons. She did inherit some of her mother's brains so it wasn't too hard for her to go along with the class' lessons. After a while, it was time to make sweets. The teacher decided to place Mikan in group A.

"Eeeh! But sensei! I know nothing about sweets!" Mikan protested.

"That's why I'm putting you in group A. I know that the group won't even thinking of neglecting you in their group. Amano Ichigo had the same case as you but as the weeks passed by she improved tremendously. We hope that it will happen to you too. However, I won't be adding your score to the group just yet, it is to ensure your other teammates won't be dragged down if you ever make a mistake." the teacher explained.

"Hai, I get it." Mikan said in a defeated voice.

As Mikan approached the station of group A she saw there were 4 members, a boy with green hair, a boy with glasses, a blond boy and to her relief, a girl with brown hair.

"Oh what do we have here? Our own little princess? Aren't we lucky or what!" the boy with green hair said.

"Calm down you narcissist, you might scare her off." The blond warned his friend.

"Hey! You guys are so mean! You're already arguing when you haven't introduced yourselves yet!" the brunette said.

"Then you go first, baka!" the blond commanded.

"Fine. Hey there! I think you already know my name since sensei already mentioned it. Anyways, I'll just say it again, I'm Amano Ichigo and my expertise involve strawberry sweets." the brunette said with her chestnut eyes shone.

"Nice to meet you Amano-senpai." Mikan smiled.

"Senpai?" Amano asked with her head tilted.

"Ah, I forgot to mention, I'm only 14 and you guys are already 15. The director decided to let me skip a year since the score on the test I took was too high for my age." Mikan explained.

"Oh, I see." Amano said.

"Well, it looks like Ma-kun and Hanabusa-san are still arguing so I'll go next. I'm Andou Sennouske and my skills involve Japanese sweets." the boy with glasses said as he did a traditional bow.

Andou? Sure sounds like Andoh. I wonder how Tsubasa-senpai and the others are doing, Mikan thought.

""It's a pleasure to meet you Andou-senpai." Mikan replied.

"Hanabusa-kun! Introduce yourself to Mikan-chan! It's not like a gentleman to fail in his introductions to a lady you know." Amano reminded the green-haired boy.

"Oh, gomen. I'm Hanabusa Satsuki and I'm an expert when it comes to girls!" the green-haired boy exclaimed.

"Hanabusa-kun!" Amano said while giving a glare.

"I was just joking but it is true though. I'm actually an expert in candy art." Hanabusa said.

"Souka! It's lovely to meet you Hanabusa-senpai." Mikan stated.

"I'm Kashino Makoto. I excel in chocolate sweets and making that air-headed senpai of yours learn stuff the hard way." the blond suddenly introduced while pointing at Amano.

"I-I see. N-n-nice to meet you Kashino-senpai." Mikan stuttered.

"Ma-kun! You're giving yourself a scary impression. Don't worry Sakura-san, he's a really nice boy in the inside." Andou assured.

"That's right Kashino! And what do you mean by air-head?! Never mind him! Mikan-chan, come here and get away from that SMALL devil!" Amano said as she hugged Mikan.

"What do you mean by SMALL!? And besides, you ARE an air-head." Kashino shot back.

"Why you…!" Amano said as she clenched her fist.

"Okay that's enough group A. I see to it that your introductions are done so we will proceed with our lesson. Everyone today will make an opera. You must make a recipe on your own and do the plating. You have an hour to make this and by the way, Sakura-san, for now you'll just be observing them, okay?" the teacher said.

"Okay." Mikan replied.

"Now begin." the teacher signaled.

As the students make their sweets Mikan tried her best to concentrate but her thoughts just kept flying away. Every one of group A reminded her of her friends. Kashino was like Hotaru who constantly gives a cold aura and threatens every one. Hanabusa reminded her of Kokoro who gives out jokes that sometimes aren't funny anymore. Andou reminded her of both Tsubasa, because of his surname Andou, and Ruka because of his gentleness and the way he called her "Sakura-san" even though he was older than her. She grimaced remembering everyone in her old academy and she longed to be with them again.

"Times up!"

The teacher's voice interrupted Mikan's thoughts. Everyone stopped and started cleaning their stations. But as soon as everything cleared up she saw so many amazing sweets. She looked at her group's sweets and had the biggest surprise of her life.

Hey! i decided to add another chapter since some people followed my story and have reviewed it so I didn't really want to let them down.

I didn't let my beta check this nor did I reread it so please bear with the typos, spelling and grammar errors.

Oh, and if I can't get at least 3 reviews for this chapter I'll either delete or discontinue the making of this fanfic. I'm not review hungry but for me, little reviews means that my fanfic isn't really that good. So please leave a review! :))

Thanks so much to "H" for leaving a review. :))
