The Piano's Melody
Chapter three: Lunch together
"Then can I ask you to have lunch with me?" Natsume asked."EH???" Mikan gasped in surprise.
--- "Geez, I can't believe I have all four periods with him." Mikan said to herself as she waited for her uncle's driver to pick her up. Then suddenly her phone rang.
"Hello?" Mikan said to the caller.
"Mikan it's your uncle." Mikan's uncle answered.
"The driver can't pick you up right now. I gave him a one week day-off because her wife was taken to the hospital." Her uncle added.
"I understand. I guess I'll be taking the bus." Mikan said.
"Be careful. You know you're not yet familiar around here." He said.
"Don't worry uncle. I already know the way to get home." Mikan answered.
"Ok. I'll hang up now." Her uncle said.
"Bye." Mikan said as she snapped her phone close. "I guess I'll be going home by myself for a week." Mikan said to herself
--- 'I can't believe she thought that way.' Natsume thought as he parked his car in front of their door. 'But I do like the fact we all have four periods together.' He thought as a smile formed his lips. He went inside their mansion without the smile leaving in his face.
"Nii-chan! You look so happy today. Was there something exciting happened to school?" Aoi, Natsume's sister, said as she grinned to her brother that was obviously happy today.
"It's none of your business buriko." Natsume said to her sister as he went up to his room.
"You're such a meanie! I bet you met a girl today! " She shouted to get back with his brother.
Natsume just rolled his eyes and continued walking to his room. He lie down on his bed still thinking about what happened the whole day. He was thinking how Mikan was different from the fangirls that drool and runs after him. He just can't help thinking about her. 'I don't get it. I get this kind of feeling that wants to burst inside of me.' He thought. He just shrugged it off and took a rest.
---The next morning, Mikan decided to go to school early to continue her composition. She never did this again since she learned about her past. 'I guess it's the time to practice my skills.' Mikan thought as she prepared her things for school. She ate her breakfast and went to school.
By the time she got to school, she quickly went to the music room to practice the song she's been working for.
After an hour of practicing Mikan decided to go and talk with Hotaru. 'I'm sure she's already here.' Mikan thought. She went outside the music room only to find that she was being dragged by Natsume. "N-Natsume! What are you doing!?" Mikan shouted to him as they continued to run.
"Shut up little girl. If you still want to make out of this alive, I suggest you run faster." Natsume replied as he tightened his grip on Mikan's hand.
Mikan looked behind and found out that they were being pursued by Natsume's fangirls. She ran faster as Natsume said to get to their room quickly. When they got to their room, they shut the door quickly as they panted.
"You sure have a lot of fangirls don't you?" Mikan said to Natsume as she tries to catch her breath.
"What do you expect from being handsome and a singer?" Natsume retorted to Mikan.
'How arrogant.' Mikan thought as she ignored Natsume and went to Hotaru. Natsume went to talk with Ruka.
"I guess you and Hyuuga are now close. Congratulations Mikan." Hotaru said with an emotionless tone.
"I came here to talk about you and Ruka. Not to talk about that guy." Mikan replied.
"As far as I know, you're the only girl that Hyuuga has been talking to." Hotaru said.
"Who cares?" Mikan said with a slight irritation in her voice.
'This idiot is so slow.' Hotaru thought.
"Never mind." Hotaru replied.
--- "Natsume, you've been spacing out since you and Sakura-san arrived." Ruka said to his bestfriend.
"It's nothing Ruka." Natsume replied uninterestedly.
"You know, you've been changing a lot since Sakura-san came here." Ruka said with a smile.
"Really?" Natsume said with a boring tone.
"I guess there's no sense talking with you right now." Ruka replied. "See you later Natsume." He added as he went back to his seat.
---Lunch time came when Hotaru and Ruka left Natsume and Mikan in the room.
'Geez Hotaru seemed to be hooked up with Ruka-pyon all the time.' Mikan thought as she arranged her things. "I guess I won't be disturbing them." She said to herself. She was startled when Natsume called her.
"What?" Mikan said to him raising a brow.
"Why aren't you with Imai?" Natsume asked.
"Why aren't you with Ruka-pyon?" Mikan asked back.
"I asked first." Natsume said.
"I don't want to bother them." Mikan said with her head facing the floor.
"Then can I ask you to have lunch with me?" Natsume asked.
"EH???" Mikan gasped in surprise. "Are you sure?" Mikan said.
"Will I ask you if I'm not sure?" Natsume replied.
'He does have a point.' Mikan said.
"Okay." Mikan replied with a smile.
--- Both of them were sitting on the same table alone, eating in silence. Mikan felt uncomfortable as she eats her lunch. She wanted to break the silence. At last she thought what she wanted to ask.
"Ne, Natsume answer me." Mikan said.
"Hn?" Natsume replied in an emotionless tone.
"Why did you ask me to have lunch with you?"
"To scare the fangirls away." Natsume replied with a smirk.
"You!!! I thought you asked me because you want to know me better." Mikan shouted.
"That's the other reason." Natsume said as he continued to eat his lunch.
"HUH???" Mikan said wide-eyed.
"Are you slow? I said I want to know you better." Natsume replied.
'WHAT!?' Mikan thought.

"I said I'll give you a ride home." Natsume said.
"I don't need your help. I can go home myself anyway." Mikan said pouting.
"With that condition? No way." Natsume said. He carried Mikan and put her inside his car.
