Third Person POV; EXTREEEEEME OCCCC MOHAHAHAHHAA ;D
So, the previous chapter, we discussed the life of Hyuuga Natsume and his overly attached scary girlfriend. Now, we will discuss the troubles of the female protagonist with her boyfriend—another troublesome lover.
Sakura Mikan woke up due to the brightness of the new day. "Waaaah," she yawned as she turned to her boyfriend, who was still sleeping beside her.
You see, the couple live together. They cook for themselves, clean the house, all that jazz. It was hard work, but they kept it because they love each other, of course.
For them, everything was perfect.
"Mornin', baby," the blonde partner greeted Mikan before kissing the tip of her nose.
"Morning~" She replied, grinning as she hugged him.
"Any schedules for today?"
Mikan took out her phone and checked if there were appointments for today. "None," she replied sweetly, snuggling on the male's collarbone.
The blonde patted the short girl's head, kissing her, his tall structure governing the petite one under him. Breaking the passionate kiss, the girl left the bed and tied her hair up.
The male flattened the bed, settling it down to fix it properly. Next was they cleaned their room then took a bath, one after the other.
Finally finishing the cleaning, the two pushed a cd into the player and began to watch a movie. 2 and a half hours later, the movie finished and Mikan slept in the middle of the show. The male gave a grin at the girl, carrying her to the bed.
"Mmmm, I love you, Ruka," the girl mumbled as she hugged a pillow.
"Yeah, I love you too, Mikan. I love you very much."
Much, much, later that day, Mikan woke up to the noise of a vacuüm machine.
"Ruka?" She called out, sitting up and rubbing her eyes.
"Oh, no dear, it's the cleaning woman. Mr. Nogi asked me to clean the room. Also, he wishes me to give this letter to you," the older female with the age of about 60 years old replied as she handed the letter to Mikan.
Dear Mikan,
The cleaning woman has the key to the car, you'll find the second note clipped on the steering wheel. If you're asking why, you'll find out later.
It's gonna be important, so don't miss it! Oh and wear a beautiful dress, 'kay?
Forever yours,
Ruka
Mikan, oblivious to what was gonna happen in the near future, smiled widely as she read every single word from the note.
"Umm, the key, Mrs. Cleaning Lady?" She asked, folding the note and putting it safely to her pocket.
"Oh, here you are, dear," she stretched her arm out as the dangling of the keys sounded in her ears.
'Just what in the world is Ruka scheming?' The brunette thought as she waved the older woman goodbye and rushing outside.
Beep! The elevator button echoed as Mikan pushed the button for the ground floor. Probably beaming with excitement, as soon as the automatic steel doors opened, she rushed outside.
As soon as she opened the door of the car, she swiped the note clipped on the steering wheel and immediately began to read.
Hey Baby,
Quite a good start, huh. Hehe, now that you're in the car, go to the restaurant where we first met. Everything will start and end there. Love you, baby!
Forever yours,
Ruka
Giggling with slight confusion, Mikan revved up the engine and started to leave the hotel premises.
*Restaurant*
"Come on! Come on! She'll be here any minute!" Ruka started to panic as he fixed his tuxedo button and waxed his hair backward.
"Yes, sir! We're fixing everything as fast as we can. Just 5 minutes left until everything is fully prepared," a waiter replied as he set down a wine glass and the main wine in the middle of the luxurious table.
Honk Honk! A silver car honked as it inched closer and closer to the restaurant.
"Everything is done, sir!" A waited said as they went to their stations.
"Good! Good! Damn, she's here! Stations!" Ruka exclaimed as he went outside the gates to meet up with his girlfriend.
"Ruka! What's all of this?" Mikan uttered as she went outside the car, her shiny light blue dress glimmering in beauty. Ruka was dazzled as the girl approached him and gave him a kiss on the cheek.
"O-oh, it's just…umm, something," he blushed, stuttering in his words as he lead Mikan inside.
"You are dazzling right now, baby. Makes me fall for you all over again," he grinned, placing his hand on her jaw and giving her a kiss on the cheek. Mikan blushed furiously, twirling a piece of her brown hair on her finger.
"Here you go, baby," Ruka lead his girlfriend to the designated table for them. The lovely couple caught the attention of the men and women in the restaurant; both look amazing, like a prince and princess from a fairy tale. The lads were jealous of Ruka, but knew that nothing can happen even if they did something—the ladies were jealous of Mikan, but still knew that they can't fight her.
Their beauty, poise, elegance, it was off the charts. Yet the two ignored the other people. The thing that they only took notice on was each other's eyes.
"I love you, Nogi Ruka."
"And I you."
The two kissed again, then Ruka waved to a waiter, who nodded in return. The waiter settled down a special glass that already had wine in it. As the couple chatted, the time came where Ruka's surprise was coming. When Mikan finished her wine, a diamond ring rested on the end of the glass.
"R-Ruka?"
Ruka stood up and took the ring from the glass. He knelt on one knee and stretched out the ring to Mikan. "Sakura Mikan, I love you since before I met you, and this decision I choose, it's something that I will never, ever regret. You are the sweetest, funniest, and the most perfect girl I have ever met. I wish that I knew you sooner. I love you, baby. And you know that. So that's why, will you marry me?"
Mikan was stunned at Ruka's sudden proposal. Did he just… ask her for marriage? She was shocked, paralyzed, thoughts swarming inside her head. She didn't know what to say. What to think. But she definitely knew one thing:
She's not ready for something big like this. And not only her, Ruka's not ready, too.
'Ruka, are you taken in by the powerful thing called love? Is this why? I'm so sorry. But…'
"I'm sorry, Ruka. I'm so sorry, but we're still not ready for this. I have to contradict your thought of us getting married. I'm so sorry. I'm so so so so sorry," Mikan began to storm off the restaurant, leaving the shocked and puzzled Ruka, still down on one knee.
"We're so sorry for that, sir," a waiter consoled, patting the male's shoulder. Ruka glared at the waiter, whacking his hand off of his shoulder.
"Don't you dare touch me, peasant," he growled, throwing the ring away then walking outside the restaurant.
"Damn this. Damn this! You know what?! YOU KNOW WHAT SAKURA MIKAN?! YOU'RE NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME! YOU HEARD ME? HUH? YOU AIN'T WORTH SH**!" Ruka screamed, his green eyes turning dark in anger. He walked opposite to where Mikan went, ripping his tuxedo away and throwing it to a river.
Mikan, who heard everything, crawled into the car where she began to cry. Despair filled her shrieks as she curled into a ball on the driver's seat.
A/N: Now, both of the main protagonists are introduced to y'all. Hyuuga Natsume and his overly attached girlfriend; and Sakura Mikan with her rejected boyfriend-ex.
Now what would happen to the two? Stay tuned for the next chapter. Get ready ;)
