Chapter 3
Monday, it was the day when Mr. and Mrs. Hyuuga leaves for a business trip. And when the three siblings and Mikan woke up, the two Hyuuga's were already gone.
"Tch. Whenever they leave for a business trip, they're always like that. They leave without even telling us." Natsume stated with a frown. Then suddenly, his cellphone rang. He flipped it open and placed it beside his right ear.
"Yeah?"
'That Natsume… How rude! Answering like that!' Mikan thought, frowning at him.
"Yeah… Whatever…" After that, Natsume hung up.
"Come on, You-chan, Aoi-chan. We wouldn't want to be influenced by your lazy, perverted and rude brother." Mikan whispered to Youichi and Aoi as they walked silently from Natsume. Natsume turned to them and smirked.
"Where do you think you're going?" He asked, still smirking at Mikan.
"Upstairs. I… I was going to clean Youichi's room and Aoi-chan was going to take a bath...!" Mikan said, trying to make up a good excuse. But she failed miserably.
"That was a really lame excuse, polka. Where are you going?" He repeated the question once more.
"Fine. We were about to go outside because you might spread your laziness, pervertedness and rudeness(Is 'rudeness' a word??) to us." Mikan said, sticking her tongue out. He smirked at Mikan.
"You're a polka-dotted panties idiot." He shot back at her.
"Well... you're an arrogant guy!" Mikan retorted back at Natsume. But before he could retort back at her, the door slammed open and four guys entered. Mikan turned to them with a questioning look.
"Um… not to be rude or anything but would you care to learn the word 'knock'?" Mikan said to them.
"Now look who's rude…" Natsume mumbled under his breath.
"I heard you there!" Mikan said, gritting her teeth. A light brown-haired boy snickered at the sight of Natsume and a girl arguing.
"Oh. Sorry about that. I'm Mikan Sakura. Youichi's nanny." Mikan introduced herself and smiled at them.
"I'm Ruka Nogi."
"I'm Kokoroyomi."
"I'm Tsubasa Andou."
"I'm Yuu Tobita."
"Nice to meet you!" Mikan beamed cheerfully at them, making them blush. Natsume, Youichi and Aoi just stood there beside Mikan, expressionless.
"So, Natsume, we have band practice, right?" Ruka asked.
"Yeah. And tonight's the performance." Natsume answered.
"The owner only asked us to perform at least two songs, right? So, it'll only take us a little while to practice. And then, we can have fun!" Koko said happily.
"We're going to the Music Room. Later, polka." Natsume said with a smirk. The five went to the music room while Mikan, Youichi and Aoi were left downstairs.
"Mikan-nee… Do you like nii-chan?" Aoi asked, out of the blue. Mikan looked at her with wide eyes.
"Why do you ask, Aoi-chan?" Mikan asked. She wanted to know why the eight-year-old asked her that question.
"B-b-because… Iwantyoutobenii-chan'sgirlfriend!" Aoi said quickly. Mikan's eyes were as big as plates and her jaw dropped to the floor.
Aoi felt embarassed by saying this. I mean, it's only two days and she wants Mikan to be her onii-chan's girlfriend!
"Well, Aoi-chan, your nii-chan… I've only met him a few days ago so… maybe your nii-chan and I should be friends for now, right?" Mikan said, with a smile. Aoi smiled back at Mikan. Just as they finished their conversation, Mikan felt Youichi stir. Youichi opened his eyes and sat up on Mikan lap.
"Can we play, nee-chan?" The five-year old asked the brunette cutely.
"Sure, You-chan." She answered. Youichi stood up tapped his hand on Aoi's shoulder and said "Tag! You're it!" Aoi ran up to Youichi as Mikan just giggled and joined the game.

"So, do you like her, Natsume?" Ruka asked as slung the strap of his electric guitar on his left shoulder.
Koko sat by the drums, playing with the drum sticks. Natsume and Tsubasa did the same as Ruka while Yuu sat on a chair, facing them, adjusting his glasses.
"No." Natsume answered bluntly.
"Oh, come on, Natsume! You could've just ignored her a while ago, but you didn't and you two were arguing too. Meaning that she's different!" Koko said.
"Yeah. I mean, you practically ignore and glare at every girl, except your mom and Aoi though.." Tsubasa said to him. Yuu nodded in agreement.
"Whatever…" Natsume groaned at the topic they were talking about.
"So you do like her!" Koko said cheerfully. The other three grinned at Natsume.
"I didn't say anything like that." Natsume glared at them and the four laughed at him.
The door busted open revealing three girls, with Mikan, Youichi and Aoi behind them.
