A.N I would like to thanks all of my reader especially those who reviwed, followed and favourited this story :D So here's chapter 3! Oh, by the way, I think I never mentioned their age before. So Mikan and all are thirteen. I wrote this when there is break for Oral exam Enjoy! R&R!
(Mikan's POV)
Suddenly, a sly smile appeared on Nobara's lips.
"Ha! Nat, I remembered that the last time you wet your bed was at the age of seven! Seven! Haha...!" Nobara teased. I seriously hate her teasing Nat and calling the same name I call Nat. Okay, pherhaps I sound too much like a jelous girlfriend. I admit that the green monster is eating me up. But really, I hate it. -sigh- Mikan you baka. Hotaru's right.
"Shut up. At least that is better than someone who always come to my room and hug me whenever lightning strikes." Nat retorted. Hug him? That was... unexpected. But well, it's alright since that was the past.
"Oh please, remember how you met Ru? You drowned and I tried to save you and luckily Ru appeared." Nobara argued. Ru? Who the hell is that? Nobara... she seems to know a lot about Nat. Baka Mikan! They are childhood friends remember? Oh yeah.
"Shut that. We are talking about the two of us. Don't drag Ruka in." Natsume said on top of the branch of the sakura tree. I felt so left out. What? You cannot possibly blame me could you? They are talking about their childhood moments and they spend it together. I was not there when they are little! I saw Nat dozing off.
"Nobara, you seemed to care for Nat alot." I stated.
"Yup. Because if I don't, no one else would. Maybe except you." She replied. Her answer made me wonder.
"Is there problems?"
"Yeah."
"What is the problems then?"
"Eyh? Nat didn't tell you? So it seems that he haven't open up to you then, huh?" A vein popped out. I know that. I do not need you to shove the obvious in my face.
"So..what's his problem?" I asked curiously.
"I'm not the type who tell anyone Nat's past." Nobara rejected answering my question. Another vein popped out but I still managed to fake a smile. Anyone? Puh please, I'm someone. I'm his girlfriend for god's sake!
"Oh. Do you think he'll tell me if I ask?" I inquired nicely.
"Nah, he's not the type to tell anyone his past except me and Ru. We're special. Though you're his GF." Nobara stated. Another vein popped out. Okay, when I say my vein popped out, I don't really mean that I'm angry. It's just that... I felt a little bad for myself since Nat did not open up to me. That is why Nobara thinks that I am just a someone. Now I do not feel like staying here any more. I can never compete with Nobara. She knows too much about Nat. And the way Nat treated her... Maybe she is right. She is special.
I climbed onto the branch that Nat's sleeping on. I woke him up by shaking him a little.
"Nat, I'm going," I informed him.
"What? Why? Are you unwell?" He asked worriedly.
"Nah, I'm just... tired." I replied.
"Okay, then..." He dragged the last word, thinking about what should he do. I prayed that he will offer to send me back my dorm like he do everytime. But no. "Maybe I'll stay here with Nobara, she's new here you see. I want to keep her accompany." He said.
"Oh." That was the only word I managed to mutter. I turned around and climb down the tree. But if anyone was to take a closer look, they would have notice the sadness in my brown orbs. I slowly proceed to my dorm. I needed a sleep. Something to make me stop feeling so insecure and sad.
(Natsume's POV)
"Okay, then..." I dragged the last word, thinking what to do. Sure, Mikan is my GF but Nobara... she is diffrent. Very diffrent and special. Yes, even more diffrent and special than Polka. (A.N Natsume you jerk! Sorry for intruding, minna(everyone).) "Maybe I'll stay here with Nobara, she's new here you see. I want to keep her accompany." I said. I think Polka will agree. Since she is kind-hearted and all.
"Oh." She muttered. See? Told ya. She turned around and climbed down the tree and proceed to her dorm.
I still remember the place Nobara and I used to go. The things we used to play and the topic we used to say. Now, it is all back to me. The only diffrence is... Polka is here. As my girlfriend. Things between Nobara and I were fine till she cheated on , you are right. We are ex-couple. I tried to be angry, hate her with all my heart. But... I just cannot do it. It is too hard. The one who come near you despite you being cold to her, kept on pushing her away. The one who is always there to listen to your problems and emotions. The one who is always there when you needed someone by your side. The one who knows every single things about you.
Nobara... she just made me wanna protect her. She is too defenceless. She always put others before her. She screams and yell at me whenever I peek her undergarment. Heh. Just like Mikan. Even if she cheated on me, I still love her as my childhood best friend. I jumped down the tree and realised that Nobara's sleeping. I carressed her beutiful face. More specific, her cheeks. And I tucked her gorgeous grey hair to the back of her ear. I smiled. She is as beautiful as ever. I lifted Nobara upnand carried her bridal style to my special star room. I placed her gently on my bed and pulled the blanket up. I took my favourite manga and started reading.
(Normal POV)
Mikan reached her dorm and she let her body go limp. She landed on her soft bed. "Maybe I should sleep now." She thought. Zzzzz...
"Outou-san (father)... Okaa-san (mother)... Jii-san (grandfather)... -a tear dropped- I'm not a murder! I'm not... I'm not! Aaaah! Nii-san (older brother)! Gomen (sorry)... gomen... I'm a murderer..." The brunette dream talked as a tear dropped from her eyes. Her eyebrows were furrowed together. She looked as if she was in pain. Nightmare haunted her. But no one was there. No one. No one to wake her. She woke. Startled. Her brown orbs full with fear, pain, remorse, guilt...
She procceded to her window and gaze at the beautiful sky.
"Nii-san... where are you?" The brunette mumbled as tears rolled down her eyes. She tried to stop both the pain that is tearing her apart and her tears. But, to no avail.
A.N Phew! That was long. Longer that chapter 1&3! Don't forget to R&R! I'm sorry for not using the preview scene 1 in chapter 2!
