Warning: OOC characters
Pairing: Natsume Hyuuga and Mikan Sakura
It was already 8 in the evening and Natsume was inside his condo with a growling tummy.
"I got used to being on set for awhile with a manager that would buy foods for me, that I forgot to even fill in my fridge." Natsume sighed.
He was sitting on a couch infront of his t.v. But not a single show, made Natsume understand. He was just so hungry.
I could always order pizza. Wait, what happened today? He asked himself. Morning coffee, 'celebrity works'. Wait, who made that? ... Natsume rubbed his forehead. Ah, Mikan. Mikan Sakura.
Natsume smiled on the thought of her. Beautiful Mikan Sakura. That's it. I'll buy food outside. I might see her.
Natsume quickly rose up from where he was sitting and put his shoes on. He rubbed his hair, brought out his phone and earphones and placed it on his ears and went outside of his condo unit. He rode the elevator, lost in his music. Lifehouse's You and Me was playing on his phone.
Ping The sound of the elevator that landed made Natsume more energitic.
Warm summer air greeted Natsume as he walked out of the building. He exhaled.
He started walking on the sidewalk while looking at every girl that passes him. Mikan, Mikan, where are you? Wait, I'm suppose to buy food not just look for her! Ah! Natsume, you're becoming crazy over a girl you saw yesterday, and talked this morning. You don't even know if the little boy was her child or not. Natsume sighed.
He entered a Seven Eleven shop and went to the beverage section and picked up 2 bottles of water, and a can of Coke. He took a bag of Lay's from a rack and 2 snickers. He decided to go to the noodle section.
He was looking down when a cup of instant noodle rolled on his feet.
"Oh, sorry, sir." It came from a woman.
"No, that's okay. I'll pick it up." Natsume said. She was about to pick it up, when Natsume got ahead of her.
He straightened himself and looked at the woman. The earphone from one of his ear fell out and dropped on his neck. The music on the shop changed to ZAQ's Kimi no Tonari ni. It's Mikan.
Natsume's eyes widened. His heart started thumping. Heart, please calm down. I don't even know if you're nervous or it's because I saw her suddenly.
"Oh, Mr. Hyuu- Natsume! Hi!" Mikan smiled at him.
"M-Mikan, hey!" Natsume stuttered. "I-I s-s-see y-you're b-b-buying f-food."
He takes the other earphone from his ear and switched of his phone.
"Ah, yes! You as well?" Mikan asked.
Natsume nodded. Heart, please!
A kid with grey-ish hair approached Mikan and tugged the hem of her dress. He was holding a bag of lollipops. "Big sister, may we buy these lollipops? Please? Please?"
It's the same kid I saw with her yesterday. Natsume thought.
Mikan looked down and smiled at her little brother. "You-chan, you might ruin your teeth."
It's already night time, and you're still so beautiful. Natsume thought looking at Mikan.
The kid pouted.
"Alright." Mikan sighed. "We will buy this, but you will have to drink water every now and them, okay?"
The kid smiled. "Okay!"
She looked back at Natsume. "Natsume, this is You-chan. His real name is Youichi. He's my little brother. You-chan, this is Natsume Hyuuga. He's a friend."
Natsume bent down and smiled. "Hello, Youichi. How are you?" He patted Youichi's head.
Youichi smiled. "I'm fine, Mr."
Natsume looked back at Mikan. "How old is he?"
She smiled at him. "He's only 3 years old."
Natsume's eyes darted on Mikan's hazel orbs. Such beautiful eyes, and yet such sadness is in them. I wonder what she's thinking. Natsume thought.
"Ah, N-Natsume?" Mikan disturbs his thought.
"Oh, I-I'm sorry. I-It's just that, you have such beautiful eyes." Natsume looked away; embarassed.
Mikan giggled. "Yours as well. You have lovely ruby eyes."
Youichi touched Mikan's dress again and pouted. "How about my eyes, big sister?"
"They're very pretty as well, You-chan." She answers.
"S-so, l-let's pay for what we bought." He said; still embarassed.
Mikan picked up a shopping basket and took 2 cup noddles, 2 onigiris, a box of fresh milk, and 2 bottles of water. Youichi places the bag of lollipops inside the basket. She nods at Natsume, and they both went to the counter together with Youichi. Natsume lets Mikan stay infront of him in the counter.
"You're gonna pay for that?" Natsume asks.
"Yeah. Is something wrong?" Mikan was about to take her wallet from her satchel.
"Here, let me pay for that." Natsume takes out his credit card.
"No, no! I appreciate it but, I think I really should pay for these." She says.
"Come on. It's the least I can do for you as a thank you for giving me your name and for acting calming when you knew who I was. Girls would usually over react when some celebrity is infront of them." Natsume smiles.
Mikan rolls her eyes and takes out a short laughs. "Alright. But I'll pay you, okay?"
Natsume smiles. That's music to my ears. I might dream about her laughter tonight. He thought.
He places his items inside the basket and pays for what he bought and Mikan's as well. After paying, Natsume was carrying the plastic bag as they walk on the sidewalk.
"Are you okay? Or should I take that? It looks like you find it heavy." Mikan says. Youichi was beside her, holding her hand while eating his lollipop.
"N-no, I'm fine. It's not that heavy." Natsume answers. "And, you don't have to pay me." He added.
"Hmm? What do you mean? I have to pay you." She said.
"You don't have to pay me. J-Just go on a date with me." Natsume said.
Mikan stopped from her tracks and looked at Natsume. "N-Natsume, are you serious?"
Natsume nods.
She smiles. "Okay. One day, we'll go on a date."
Natsume's heart started thumping as he gets energized but her response. He nods.
They continued walking. Minutes later, they arrived at a 2-storey building with staircase that connects to the terraces on the upper level.
"This is where we stop." Mikan smiles.
Natsume smiles and hands Mikan the plastic bag which belongs to her.
"Thank you, Natsume." She says.
"Y-You're welcome." He answers while rubbing the back of his head.
"Say thank you to Natsume, You-chan." Mikan tells Youichi.
Youichi takes the lollipop from his mouth and smiles. "Thank you, Mr."
Natsume nods.
His eyes followed Mikan as she and Youichi climbed on the stairs and into their apartment. She unlocks the door and lets Youichi in first. She looks back at Natsume and waves at him. Natsume waves back.
That night, Natsume went home with a smile on his face. Having Mikan in his mind.
The next morning, Natsume went out at 8 in the morning. Sadly, he didn't find Mikan in the coffee shop or the flower. So, he decided to walk a bit. Then, he remembered that she might be working on the daycare center.
He decided to take a visit.
There, he saw Mikan with a blue sleeveless dress with a floral print and white collar; playing with the kids. She looks at the visitor. "Oh, h-"
Natsume waves.
"Natsume, hi! How did you know I was here?" She asked; walking towards him.
"I-It's just a guess, since Youichi is a three-year-old." He answers; scratching the back of his head. Liar.
"Is it okay if I ask for your help? We really need it." She smiled.
He nods.
"Thank you!" Mikan then looks back at the kids.
"Okay kids, I've got something to tell you. A friend of mine, is here to visit and I want you all to be nice to him, okay? It's Natsume Hyuuga, everybody!" Mikan announced.
Natsume went inside and waves at the kids.
"It's Natsume!" The kids started approaching him.
"Mr. Hyuuga, can you dance?" A kid asked.
"Hmm, I think I can." Natsume answered.
"Mr. Hyuuga, can you sing?" Another kid asked.
"For you all? If it's okay, I will." Natsume answered as he looked at Mikan which gives him a nod.
He cleared his throat and sat infront for all the kids to see.
I'm singing to the pretty girl
That walked by my door today
I'm singing to the lonely girl
Waiting for a good man to come and take her away
I met her at a stop light
She was impatient so she didn't wanna make eyes
All I have is one question

Natsume glanced at Mikan. And she smiles at him. A woman with blue hair, nudged Mikan by the elbow and flashes a teasing smile at her.

Natsume smiles at the kids and started clapping. The kids started clapping as well.

Natsume stood up as he finished singing. He takes a bow.
The kids stared at him; stunned. Then, they stood up and cheered for him. They started hugging him; including Youichi. Mikan and the woman beside her clapped their hands at Natsume.
Mikan approached Natsume together with the woman.
"That was wonderful!" she says.
"Okay, everyone! Let us all thank Mr. Natsume Hyuuga for that beautiful song!" The woman said.
"Thank you, Mr. Hyuuga!" The kids thanked him and clapped their hands.
Natsume takes a bow again. The kids went back to playing and drawing with their crayons.
Natsume and Mikan went to the door. "Thank you so much for that!" Mikan said.
Natsume smiled. "You're always welcome! Uhh... I-Is it okay if I take you out at this time?"
Mikan hesitated and looked at the woman which gave her a nod. She smiles and nods at Natsume. She goes back to Youichi who happily nodded and waves at her. Natsume and Mikan both went out of the room.
As they walked together, they passed a hotdog cart. Mikan stopped. Natsume follows her.
"Would you like some?" Mikan asked.
"I-I've never eaten hotdogs from sidewalk stands carts before." He answers.
"You need to try these! They taste really good!" She said.
Mikan bought two hotdogs and paid for it. They both started walking again as she gives him his hotdog.
Natsume takes a bite of it. "Mmm, this is really good!"
She smiles at him. "I know, right?"
They both started eating at the warm street of Japan.
"You know, for a girl, you seem to not mind about how you'll weight." Natsume said. Though, you would still be pretty even if you gained some weight.
"I got tired of getting told how I should look like because I'm a girl. Society tells me to stay thin because they find it sexy, but that doesn't stop me from eating hotdogs." She flashes a grin at him.
Natsume stopped walking and looked at her. Mikan stops as well.
"Something wrong, Natsume?" She asks.
"M-Mikan, we only got to see each other for 2 days..." Natsume said nervously. It's 3 days for me though.
"Hmm?"
"I-I really like you, Mikan."
