2. The One Who Waits For Me

So after school, Ruka sighted a Natsume who was dragging Mikan by one of her pigtails. So he, who are sweat dropping, came to Natsume and asked,

"Eh… Natsume, what are you doing to her?"

"She's my slave so I have to drag her away from the Invention Geek."

When Ruka heard the "Invention Geek" word, he slightly blushed.

"I-Imai?"

"Yeah."

Suddenly Hotaru popped up from nowhere and asked, "Did someone mention my name?"

Ruka started to blush harder, and Mikan asked "What's wrong, Ruka-pyon? Do you have a fever?"

"N-no, Sakura-san! Really!"

"Nogi had a fever? Let me see," Said Hotaru as her face came closer to Ruka's to get a better view. Ruka was madly blushing now, so he runs away but unfortunately, he tripped. Quickly Hotaru grabbed her camera and clicked it in the right time.

"A falling Ruka. Your fan girls will be crazy over this picture."

Poor Ruka, he had no choice but to chase her and snatch the picture from her.

"Imai!!! Give me that picture!!!"

A same old routine every day. Natsume and Mikan who was watching them were speechless. So they walked away and let the two play the "Catch and Run" game. Natsume brought her to the Sakura Tree, and after that, he sleeps under the tree. So Mikan sat besides him, watching his face when he was sleeping.

Mikan's POV

Wow, He's kinda cute when he was sleeping… But why do he always mad at me? I'm sure if he smiles more often he'll be cuter… And his fans will sure increase…"

Normal POV

So Mikan have to wait for a long time until he wakes up. It was getting dark so Mikan have to wake him up.

"Natsume, come on. It's getting dark now! If you sleep here you'll catch a cold!"

"It's not you business to decide where I should sleep, polka. You're my slave now so actually you're the one who have to obey me."

"Hmph, fine! Sleep wherever you want!"

She walked away with a little worried feeling inside her. And she decided to take a blanket and give it to Natsume. When she opened Natsume's room, she saw Natsume who was wearing his Black Cat mask and he nearly jumped from the window. She yelled,

"Natsume! What do you think you were doing! You will fall you idiot! Get down from there, NOW!!!"

Natsume yelled back, "Shut up! You'll wake the whole dorm!"

"Okay, I'll be quite. However, just don't go to missions again. I beg you."

"No, I can't. I just have to go. Persona's waiting for me."

"It's all right. I'll fight him with a frying pan. He'll faint at once, because his alice is no use on a frying pan. Like yours."

"You can't! Do you want to die doing that?! Just let me go, or I'll burn you!"

"Nope, you can't. I can control my nullification now."

Natsume's next idea was pretending to be hurt, just like the "Aladdin and the Magic Lamp" RPG, but Mikan was going to call Ruka and the hospital officer so Natsume just admitted that it was just an act. Nearly run out of ideas, Natsume just thought something and said,

"Mikan…" with bangs covering his face.

Mikan, who was surprised that Natsume was actually calling her name, answered,

"Yes?!"

Natsume lifted his face, smirked and said,

"If you don't get out of my way, I'll kiss you."

Mikan screeched.

"Yikes! No!"

She ran away. Natsume putted on winning smirk on his face, and jumped out of the window.

Mikan's POV

Mikan, you idiot! You let him go away!

Normal POV

"Sigh… I'll wait on front of his room then…"

Therefore, she waited and waited until Natsume returned with body covered with blood. When Mikan saw the image of him, she ran to him and yelled,

"Natsume! Natsume! Hold on! Come on, I'll lead you to your room!"

So she led him and tells him to sit on the sofa. She treated his wounds very carefully.

"Done."

"Baka polkadots, you don't have to wait for me until this late."

Mikan did not answer.

"Oi, polka?"

"Sorry to disturb you." Said Mikan with a low voice, hurried to get out of his room, and closed the door with no voice at all.

Natsume's POV

What's wrong with her?
