Your Guardian Angel
By Aki Eschirott
Chapter 2: Why I'm here
After getting scolded at by the head librarian for being noisy (Mikan) and not wearing the designated uniform (Natsume) they were both kicked out of the library and given another detention slip for tomorrow the two decided (mostly Mikan) to go to a café to eat and know more about each other.
In short, get out of being the one guarded by Natsume. (Mikan's idea of getting to know more about each other)
Finish this job as soon as possible. (Natsume's idea of getting to know more about each other)
NATSUME'S POV
People always said I was patient. Yes, I was... Until she just had to talk for about two hours straight non-stop. Blabbling away happily, not caring that she was being annoying and a pain in the ass. So I'm supposed to guard her for how long again?
I glared at her. What is she blind? I'm here sitting in front of her as she continues to babble and she fails to notice my expression going from annoyed to pissed?
"So do you like beef or pork?"
I stared at her. "Do you expect me to answer that?"
"Well, duh. It's a question." She replied, rolling her eyes.
So I can see she's getting annoyed and she cannot see me pissed.
"A stupid one at that" I said, sipping my cola as she glared at me while eating a spoonful of her strawberry parfait.
"Excuse me?" She asked angrily. "I'm just trying to get to know you better!"
I raised an eyebrow. "How does asking me about beef or pork and letting me pay for all of the things you're eating get you to know me better?"
"It lets me know your kind and not rude" Mikan stated with a huge grin plastered on her face. "Oh and lets me also know that you don't like either beef or pork"
I glared at her. "I didn't even answer, how would you know"
"So, you're going to answer now? Beef or pork?"
I grunted. "Change the question idiot"
Mikan flailed her arms wildly. "But you said I can ask anything!"
"Anything but those stupid questions"
Mikan pouted. "Fine, okay then how about this. Can't other people see your wings?"
I flexed my wings for a bit and stretched my arms. "If they did they would be either chasing me by now or ignoring me because I look like an otaku cosplayer."
Mikan ate another spoonful of her strawberry parfait and began asking another question. "So, how did you become a guardian angel Natsume? How did you became mine? Did you guys picked from a box with names or what"
"Idiot..." I grunted, "So how do I put it..."
FLASHBACK:
"Welcome to Heaven!"
"Uh..yeah...Heaven..."
"So, what do we do here exactly" Natsume asked as he stared at Kami who was busy tinkering with who knows what that suddenly appeared who knows when.
Kami looked at Natsume with a gentle smile. "Well, first you have to be actually inside heaven to do anything."
Natsume arched a questioning eyebrow "We're not in heaven yet?"
Kami continued tinkering with the weird machine as he spoke. "Well we are in heaven but not exactly, we're like in front of the gates."
"Ah, so all I have to do to reach heaven is enter the gates right?" Natsume stated as he suddenly found himself face to face with the golden gate. "Do things just suddenly appear whenever you want them to here?"
Kami just nodded. "Ah, alright"
As Natsume was about to enter a huge brick wall suddenly formed inserting itself between Natsume and the gate.
Natsume stared at the wall then at Kami. "Ah..." to say he was speechless would be an understatement.
Kami waved a finger in front of Natsume. "Tsk. tsk. tsk. Natsume, everyone knows you committed suicide and committing it means you can't get inside heaven"
Natsume regained his composure and put his hands behind his head. "So I'm supposed to go to hell now?" he stated, rather calmly.
"Not really, you just have to do something before I can let you inside heaven." Kami stated cheerfully getting a few clothes out of, what looks like a drawer. "But it does surprise me to know how calmly you're taking all of this"
Natsume just stayed quiet. "So Natsume do you hear anything besides my voice?"
"Well I do hear a few murmurs..."
Kami hugged Natsume. "You're a natural my boy!"
Natsume just stared at him. "Excuse me?"
Kami wiped a tear from his eyes with his clothing. "You're excuse my boy"
Natsume just stared at him. "Would it be wrong for me to say that you're weird?"
Kami smiled. "Not at all my boy! Everyone is free to choose whatever they wish to think"
Natsume looked at Kami weirdly as he gave Natsume some emerald green contact lenses.
Natsume stared at what was in his palm. "What is this for?"
Kami continued to dig through a wardrobe full of clothing. "It's for hiding your true identity. You're going to act as someone's guardian angel"
Natsume wore the contact lenses. "Will people really think I'm someone different just because of contact lenses?"
Kami rubbed his chin, deep in thought. "Maybe you should also wear a wig"
Natsume glared at Kami with his crimson eyes now covered by emerald green contact lenses.
"You know Natsume your glare doesn't have the same effect as it did before with green contact lenses. Hmm...maybe I should have given you purple ones..."
Natsume's glare intensified. Kami sweat dropped. "Why don't you have a seat Natsume..." and in an instant a simple table and two chairs appeared right in front of them.
Natsume huffed and pulled out one of the chairs and sat on it with his arms behind his head and his feet propped on the table. "So who exactly am I going to guard and how long will I have to do it?"
Kami got out a picture of a brunette and took out a tape from the wardrobe and handed it to Natsume.
"So Natsume are you the flashy type or the simplistic type?"
Natsume arched an eyebrow. "Simplistic...I guess...Wh--"
Before Natsume could ask Kami already pulled a weird lever like thing causing Natsume to fall from whatever the hell he was standing on and onto the busy street of what appears to be Nagoya.
Natsume looked at his clothes. "So this is what he meant by simplistic"
A simple white shirt, jeans and black chucks changed his previous all white clothing. A wing necklace also replaced his usual N necklace. He patted his pockets for anything in them and found his wallet full of his credit cards and some cash and an mp4 player.
He put the earphones to his ears and took out the picture that Kami gave him. On the picture was a brunette with honey brown coloured orbs and a cheery smile that barely reached her eyes.
He grunted. He flipped the picture to see her personal information and suddenly the mp4 player started to play Kami's voice.
"Hey Natsume! Kami here!"
Natsume started to walk to who knows where.
"Have you looked at the picture yet?"
Natsume mentally answered yes.
"Good. That girl's name is Mikan Sakura. Age 15 and she'll be the one you're guarding."
Natsume nodded. "You are currently in Nagoya as you can see nobody is surprised to see you."
Natsume nodded. He wondered why that is, not that he cared much though. Natsume heard Kami chuckled.
"I used some spell so that you won't be easily recognized by the masses unless they are diehard fans, literally diehard fans. Oh and also as long as you don't use Hyuuga as your surname you're fine"
"So you're saying I should lie to hide my identity?" Natsume mumbled.
"Lying is such a cruel world. I prefer hiding your identity from the masses so you wouldn't be mobbed."
Natsume wasn't all surprised to find out that Kami can hear him even though he's high up and he's down back on earth.
"The reason behind the lie is the one that makes it bad you know"
"So you're saying that lying is good?"
"Okay so back to topic. Mikan Sakura is the one you're going to guard and--"
BAM!
Natsume fell on his butt and was supposed to glare at the person the bumped into him when his eyes instantly recognized who the person looked like.
Mikan Sakura
"I'm sorry!"
She seems to be in a hurry.
Natsume tried to stop her. "Hey wait!" but she was too far to hear him.
Natsume put the earphones, that fell when he bumped into her, back on.
"Ah Natsume, you're back. What a wonderful first meeting ne?"
Natsume grunted. "Why the hell am I guarding her?" he mumbled under his breath.
"Listen to this Natsume!" and immediately a soft voice of a little girl could be heard.
Natsume's eyes widen.
FLASHBACK END
"Hey Natsume! You still there!" Mikan's voice rang inside his head. As she waved her hands in front of him.
I looked back at the idiot who just stared at back.
Good question. Too bad I wasn't going to answer it.
"You done eating?" I asked. "Yeah, but--hey!"
I stood up. Left some money on the table and dragged her outside of the cafe.
"We're going home." I stated nonchalantly as I watched the sun set.
The idiot just looked at me weirdly. "But you didn't answer my question! And home? What?! We don't live in the same house!"
"Not yet" I smirked. Her eyes widened. She shrieked. "NO! MY GRANDPA WILL NEVER LET YOU LIVE WITH US!"
"We'll see..."
"NEVER!"
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
"and so that's how it is..." Natsume explained, with his head hung low for extra effects.
Jiro Sakura was in tears.
"Welcome to the family Natsume!" Jiro stated as he came and gave Natsume a terrifying back breaker bear hug.
"NO!!" Mikan shrieked.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
After the crushingly painful bear hug. Natsume dragged himself to his new room.
It was way smaller than his usual room but he can deal with it.
He dropped himself on the soft, comforting bed and for the first time in his life he was satisfied with the way things were going.
Mikan Sakura huh?
Natsume recalled what he had hear from the mp4 player
Dear Kami-sama,
I wish that you can make the kid on the telly happy like how you made me happy too.
Weird kid. He smirked.
Dear Kami-sama,
Please give me a really handsome and nice boyfriend.
Weird teen. He grunted.
TO BE CONTINUED
