A/N: Oh my gosh! I'm back, once again, haha! Alright, Drabble D was finally finished. Honestly, that gave me a hard time thinking some things which start with 'd'. Anyway, this fic just popped out in my head and I first though of writing story involving a dictionary. Whew, really hard. But yeah, I wanna thank God and I was able to finish it in a day. The ending was not just exactly as it was planned and I was thinking of Natsume having his own company, but then, the sending-to-other-country thing won't make sense, since Natsume doesn't want Mikan to go away right? I mean, if I do that, there won't be any problem in this fic, and it would be non sense. Okay, enough with advertisements, here you go.

DISCLAIMER: a big NO NO! This isn't mine! Only Natsuko is mine… hehe.

The Love Alphabet: Door
By: kyohei11sunako

I've always been thinking of that day. The day when she'll come back. It's 1st day of May, the day which reminds me of her, going away. The exact same day when I told myself to stop thinking about her. Yet, I always end up looking at the door, waiting for her, and that kinda pisses me off. It's like that, you planted something on the ground and there's nothing that comes out. Just wasting time, and I hate myself for doing that. The situation back then was very convoluted and complicated. I'm used to deal with those kinds of things and yet, here I am, facing the dark once again. I remember the day when she caught my attention. She even suffered and nearly died because of that stupid organization. That girl with lovely brown eyes and chocolate hair still managed to ask my condition, albeit the fact that she's in more dangerous state than I am. And I cursed that organization for hurting her. I remember the day when I'm falling for her and even got jealous of my own best friend. Yes, my own. I actually don't want her to come near me, coz I will just be a burden to my best friend and to her. But that really makes me wonder, why in the world did my heart beat fast when she asked me to be his last dance? They look at me as a genius one, but I know that I'm stupid-stupid enough not to notice that I'm starting to fall for her. And there was this time that I finally found the courage to tell her how I feel. I know that it's kinda bothersome and stupid, but I was rewarded for my great work. She returned my feelings anyway, and that was the happiest thing that happened to me, as of that day. It also happened that my best friend turned his attention at the best friend of my girl. And before I realize it, days passed by easily and it was our graduation. Yeah, I didn't expect that that event would be happy, especially when I'm with my friends who support me back then, the teachers whom I called stupid, and that girl, the only girl who shook my world and the only one whom I fell in love with. That happy day ended up with tears and sad aura along everyone, and we parted on different ways, with our own way to start new life. I also remember the time when she and I decided to live together not as a married couple (though I believe that it would happen anyway). Yeah, and one time when I got drank due to a party with her. I didn't expect that day to come. We both went home laughing and singing like crazy, and when we got home, she locked the doors and the windows and jumped off to bed. That was when I stared at her face, and her eyes, those were lovely. I hugged her and she hugged me back. I kissed her passionately. She ran her fingers up to my nape and I snaked my arms around her waist. I admit it, we even kissed a couple of times, but this time is different. There's something that electrifies my body, and sending shivers down my spine. We both lay down to our bed, she removed my tie from my neck and took care of my clothes. I even gave her my-yes, that's it. And so, I hugged and kissed her unendingly, like there's no tomorrow. We're both exhausted, catching our breaths and full of sweat. That was the first time I've done that and of course, I want to do that with her-only with her. I woke up the next morning lying flat on our bed, her head was on my arms and my arms around her waist with our blanket covering our nudity. That was the happiest day for me, exclude that thing when she returned me her feelings. That was good enough for me. But as they say, there's always rain and I didn't even know that that would come sooner. Yeah. The company we're both into sent her to another country. It's hard for me to accept that of course and that caused my heart to tear into pieces. They promised that she won't really take long at that matter. I felt very much relieved. Waiting would also be meaningful. I didn't ask her to marry me, cause I know that she would come back as soon as possible. She went away exactly at the 1st day of May, the day when I started waiting for her. One year. Two years. Three-no, five years. Five years have passed and still, the shadow of the girl whom I love is still not showing up, even a phone call or a letter was useless. I love her and I'm willing to wait. The door that I always take a look at was never opened by the person I expected to come home. That door I hated the most. I tried to give up until one unexpected day came.

-----

KNOCK.

''I'm coming.''

A twenty five year old guy with dark black hair and crimson orbs opened the door when someone knocked. Okay, he's thinking of her, yes, the girl-Sakura Mikan, the only girl who make love with him, who make him cry, laugh and live life. Natsume smiled. There's no way that that would happen. He even thought of her marrying another man. How foolish. Natsume opened the door only to find out-

''Hey, ojii-san, mm, I don't know the way to this address, would you mind telling me the way?''

A child of about 4 years old wearing a black t-shirt and a pair of stripe-colored black and white sleeve-like covering his arms paired with black jeans showed Natsume a small piece of paper and read what was written- Bingo. His address is the same as what was written on the paper. He looked at the child with a confused face. The child smiled and-snap. This kid resembles someone.

''So mister, where is that address? You know, I need to get there as soon as possible cause my mom said that my dad waits for us and she misses him a lot.''
''Excuse me kid, this house is the address you've shown me, but I think you're mistaken. I am living here for five years. Is your address really correct?''
''Yes, my mom gave me that.''
''Alright, I'll just-''

''My bad, my bad.''

Natsume trembled at the familiar voice of that intruding person. That voice, that lovely voice. His eyes even widened when that intruder showed herself.

''Y-You...''
''My bad, hora Nat-chan, didn't I tell you to greet your dad when you saw him?''
''Mi-Mikan...''
''I'm sorry if this kid caused some misunderstanding. Anyway isn't he welcome here?''

Mikan smiled and Natsume ran off and hugged her tight.

''Mikan, why didn't you call me, or write? I really missed you, why didn't you just-''

Mikan giggled and placed her fingers on Natsume's lips.

''I'll explain to you later.''
''Then, this kid-''
''Nat-chan.''
''Hai, okaa-chan. Konnichiwa, otou-chan.''
''Otou-san?''
''Natsume, that time at the party, well...''

Mikan blushed.

''...didn't we make... mmm...''

Natsume chuckled,

''Yeah. We made him.''

Natsume kneeled down and patted the child's head and then realized he has the same crimson eyes as his and the chocolate colored hair of Mikan.

''What's my son's name?''
''Hyuuga Natsuko desu!''
''Nat-chan.''

Natsume hugged his son and smiled.

''You're good at acting.''
''Huh? Am I, daddy?''
''Uhum.''

Natsume laughed and stood up, carrying Natsuko. At that time, Natsume has convoluted emotions-happy, surprised, relieved and proud. Happy to be finally reunited with Mikan again. Surprised to see that that night with her back then resulted at a kid. Relieved that she has finally back at him-only to him and proud with their own child. Hours of chatting passed which the three of them seemed not to notice.

-_-_-_-_-_-

''...and they live happily ever after. The end.''

Mikan almost whispered those last 8 words when she noticed that their son was now sleeping. Natsume smirked and looked at Mikan.

''Why?''

Mikan asked eyeing Natsume.

''Hm. I didn't even think that you would actually teach our son about fairy tales. This is just like you.''
''Of course. I'm his mother anyway.''

Natsume smiled and looked at the child sleeping between them.

''I didn't expect that this time would come.''
''Why?''
''I thought you forgot me.''
''Why should I?''
''I... I don't know. It's been 5 years, and they said you'll be back after a year.''
''Yeah. I also thought I would be back after a year. But, that company sure was a pain. They were threatening me back then so I can't say no. Later on, I found out that I'm carrying your child. I even used it as an excuse. But they were just... plain evils.''

Natsume saw Mikan's eyes, full of hurt and regret.

''What? So all those years, you and our son were suffering?''
''I can still accept he they want me, but not our child. Not him''

Natsume clenched his fist now raging in fire.

''I won't let you give yourself to them. I'll kill them first before they hurt you two.''
''No, please don't! Natsume, I don't want you to involve with this. They are now in jail. Please.''

Natsume calmed down and touched Mikan's face.

''Did they hurt you?''
''No.''
''Alright. Thank goodness. And, you know, I thought you married another man there.''
''Why would I do that? You're the only man I ever loved, and besides, what do you think
Natsuko will say if I won't marry his dad?''
''So, Natsuko knew me.''
''Of course. I actually told him about you when he was still 2. To be honest, he was the reason why the company's higher ups were put to jail.''
''Really? What... what did he do?''
''Well, thanks to Natsuko's alice which he inherited from
his father. He nearly killed those guys.''

Mikan grinned, emphasizing the words 'his father'. Natsume smirked and tapped their son on the leg.

''Heh. Like father like son, obviously.''
''Uhum.''
''Anyway, why didn't you call me so I'd be able to fetch you?''
''Nah. Nat-chan insisted not to call to surprise you, and he keeps bugging me to see you.''
''Yeah. That's my child. Anyway, since we've got Natsuko now, I don't think he'd be happy if his parents were still not married.''
''Uhum. So, Hyuuga Natsume, what now?''
''What else? Do the arrangements and make invitations, of course.''
''Sure.''

Mikan chuckled and hugged Natsume. And the rest happened that night is up to you.''

-_-_-_-_-_-

I really waited for her and she's all that I wanted. Of course, those past 5 years made me sick and tired. I hate that door, knowing that the most important person for me still hasn't opened that. And yeah, after those tiring days, weeks, months and years which pass, an unexpected twist and turn, and even an unexpected person knocked on that door. I was happy that time, really happy, that finally, that girl I loved since elementary found her way back home, with our child on that door. The door I hated when I was alone, but loved when they finally got home.
