Chapter 4, Glasses are sexy
Tactics for seducing Natsume Hyuuga :
1.) Wear shorter shirts and see through tops.
2.) Sway hips while walking…possibly do a little bump and grind…?
3.) Sit on his desk while flashing a bit of your panties…! (Side note: Hell no! Not going to happen!)
4.) Swallow a whole ice cream in front of him…(Side note: Hit Koko later for suggesting it)
5.) Wear garters to work…ARGH! FORGET IT!
Mikan let out a small scream of frustration before crumpling up the paper she had previously been using to write out her list of seducing tactics.
"I cant do this, no, I wont do this!" Mikan said collapsing on her couch and staring blankly at her TV that was currently on the ESPN channel where foot ball player could be seen running up and down a green field. Kokoro or Koko as he was more often called just sighed before switching the TV off.
"Why not?" He asked, he had spiky brown hair and light brown eyes, his smile was constant but his eyes were what really told you his emotions. He had been Mikans friend since middle school and she could tell him practically anything.
"Because, he's an asshole." she said frowning and absent mindedly twirling a piece of hair around her finger. Koko just rolled his eyes.
"He's not that bad. He's actually a good guy once you get to know him." Koko said sitting in a chair to the right of where she was situated on the couch.
"Yes, he is that bad, and how do all of you know him? First Ruka then you, what, are you starting a trend?" Koko ignored his friend obvious sarcasm.
"Yes actually, Yuu knows him to." Mikan eyes widened.
"What?! When did all of this happen?"
"When you were in your junior year in high school with Hotaru, me, Yuu and Ruka were in our senior year and that's where we met Natsume but he was already gone by the time you could have met him." Mikan seemed to ponder this for a moment while Koko continued to talk.
"Its surprising you didn't know who he was, after all, all the girls were after him." Mikans brow scrunched in confusion.
"Why?" Koko gaped at her.
"Are you blind woman?!" Mikan rolled her eyes.
"Of course I know he's physically attractive but why would a girl actually want to go out with him, he's and total ass." Koko shrugged.
"Women find his cool demeanor and enigmatic ways attractive I suppose." Mikan thought about this for a while.
"Well it drives me insane." Koko raised a brow at this.
"Oh? Then why are you trying to seduce him?" Mikan flushed red at this, he had a point.
"I…I'm not, I already said I wouldn't or…more like I cant now that I think about it." Koko flipped the TV on and trained his eyes on the screen but still asked.
"Why?"
"Well he's my boss." Koko spit out the coke he had been drinking.
"He's your boss?! Are you crazy, having a relationship is illegal!" Mikan huffed and stood up walking to her kitchen.
"I know, which is exactly why I don't have a relationship with him." Mikan said taking out some apple juice from the fridge.
"Whatever, just don't get caught." Mikan glared at him.
"We are not in a relationship!" Koko nodded his head though he wasn't really paying attention.
"Why are you here anyway?" Mikan asked pouring herself a glass and sitting on the couch again.
"Anna kicked me out." Mikan sighed as if it was old news, which it was. Anna was Koko's long time girlfriend and they had moved in together, they got into fights frequently but seriously loved each other so no one was really concerned about whether or not they fought, their loyalty to each other was obvious.
"Again? What did you do this time?" Koko shrugged meaning he had no idea. Mikan took this as saying he didn't want to talk about it or he seriously didn't know.
"So you need a place to crash?" Koko nodded.
"Fine you can stay here, but I swear if you don't make up with her soon I'm kicking you out myself." he smiled at her gratefully.
"Hey, you know you love having me around. I give great advice." Mikan got up again scoffing a little.
"Yeah, I'm sure that ice cream tip will get me far." Mikan said before heading up stairs, but before she made it to the top she heard him shout.
"It might just get you a boyfriend." Mikan shook her head, what was with her friends wanting her to get into a relationship? Oh right, they wanted her to be happy, but she was already happy…wasn't she ? She walked into her room and collapsed onto her bed, taking the crumpled list of seducing tactics from her pocket and staring at it before throwing it over the side of her bed.
"Impossible."

Mikan sighed as she dressed for work, she had chosen carefully trying to stay true to her word about not seducing Natsume. She picked a silk, emerald green button up shirt with a black pencil skirt that ended above her knees. She put her hair into a messy bun and even went so far as to buy fake black rectangular glasses to wear just to make herself look bad, after all she looked horrible in glasses. As she walked down stairs to make herself a cup of coffee she saw Koko had already made some; he handed her a cup.
"Thanks." she said taking a sip as he studied her for a moment.
"Wow, fake glasses huh? You really are trying to be unattractive." Mikan frowned.
"Glasses are not unattractive. I'm just trying to look…professional." Koko gave her a knowing grin.
"Right." She turned away from him and started to don some black heels.
"Shut up." Giving him a friendly kiss on the cheek she grabbed her car keys and headed toward the door.
"Thanks for the coffee, and remember that you and Anna getting in a fight is not an excuse to avoid work." She heard Koko mumble something before she finally stepped out of her apartment building and walked over to her car.

Mikan was speeding (literally) through the streets. She couldn't believe all of the traffic! When she had finally made it into the clear she had, to put it lightly, put the pedal to the metal. She made a sharp turn into the office buildings parking lot where she was about to pull into a spot when someone walked right where she was going to park.
"Shit!" she yelled slamming her foot down onto the break and stopping just before running the person over. Hurriedly parking in the spot that might have just been the persons grave she jumped out of her car and ran over to him.
"Oh my god, I am SO sorry, please don't sue me!" she said helping him up only to realize it was Tsubasa Andou. Oh crap.
"Mikan?" Double crap, he remembered her. She blushed and began apologizing profusely. He just stared at her with his alluring indigo eyes before chuckling.
"Your so cute." that shut her up. Tilting her head to the side, she looked at him as if he was crazy.
"Pardon? I almost run you over and you compliment me?" he grinned before brushing himself off a bit.
"A life or death experience is good for a person every once in a while." he said lightly as they began to walk into the office building together.
"I am seriously really sorry, I mean I-" he cut her off by putting a finger to her lips. She sucked in a deep breath as he stared intently into her eyes.
"How about we go on a date and call it even." not finding any words or complaints within her mind she nodded. He smiled that dazzling smile that could light the whole block before exchanging numbers with her and walking down a hall to his office. Mikan literally floated all the way up to Natsume's office, when she entered he gave her a weird look.
"What are you so happy about?" she immediately came out of her daze snapping,.
"Not you!" Natsume put up his hands.
"Whoa, relax and I want a cup of coffee." Mikan raised an eye brow at him.
"And why are you telling me?" Natsume smirked.
"Well, you are my secretary aren't you?" Mikans eyes widened for a fraction of a second before she let out a string of curses. And stomped out the door, Natsume snickered.
This was going to be fun.
--
"Why do I have to get him some damn coffee?!" Because you work for him. She inwardly answered herself then sighed. Why did she do this to herself? Grabbing a mug of coffee, she walked out of the small kitchen area and down the hall to the office of the devil -whoops, her boss-.
Stalking in she slammed the mug down on his desk.
"Here you go Hyuuga." he didn't even bat a lash at the malice in her voice, but simply replied with a blunt.
"Its Natsume." she narrowed her eyes.
"Fine, Natsume." saying his name as if it was a cuss word, he chuckled amusedly before looking up into her eyes, she tried really, really hard not to notice how sexy his gaze was.
"On second thought call me Natsume-sama." Mikan scowled.
"Now your pushing it." he shrugged. She looked around.
"So…where's my office or cubicle or whatever?" she asked still scanning the place for it. He smiled at her, an eerie smile that meant trouble, or at least trouble for her.
"Right there." he said pointing to a chair situated on the opposite side of his desk, meaning they would be sitting face to face, eye to eye, mouth to mout- Oh hell no!
"No way." she said tightly her lips pursed together. He just shrugged but the evil glint lingered in his eyes.
"You could always sit there." he said pointing to the floor in the corner of the room. Sighing resigned, she hesitantly took a seat opposite of him trying to keep what dignity she had left. She grabbed the stack of paper work in front of her trying extremely hard no to notice the guy in front of her that practically had a sex me up sign glowing above him. She could hear his breathing and smell his expensive cologne with a mix of spice. Sometimes his hand would gently brush her hand or their eyes would meet in an intense gaze, gods it was driving her insane! She was staring intently at some files when she suddenly noticed the stillness in the room, looking up from the paper she saw Natsume's fiery crimson eyes taking her in as if she was a delicious cake, she gulped nervously before asking as offhandedly as she could.
"What's wrong?" Curse her voice for trembling!
"Nothing…much, just that-" he said his eyes still tracing her form as she shifted uncomfortably in her seat under his scrutiny.
"-you look sexy with glasses." he finished licking his lips.
Then she knew, somewhere up in heaven god was laughing at her expense.
End Chapter
Plushy: So how was it? I personally wasn't that satisfied at the beginning but I think it got better towards the end. So far there's no real plot development yet, but you know me, I have a couple of default chapters first before the real story starts unfolding. I hope this chapter makes up for my absence of updates on One of Them.
I also put out a prologue for one of my future stories since I don't plan to really start getting into it until I finish one of my other stories because I might overload myself.
Anyways, be a doll and review…please?
