I was told to stay away from you but you found me...

There was no way I could ignore you...

You presence captivated me, your actions amazed me, your looks scared me...

You were to much of a mystery to stay away from...

but

I should have stayed away from you...

You broke me into million pieces...

I hate that I love you

Chapter 4: my so called perfect life.

"rui?" came the voice of a beautiful brunette with a sharp tongue. Natsume looked surprised at her, she actually knew this guy?

Rui looked shocked and then regained his posture. "mikan sakura, do you mind explaining me what my girlfriend is doing in my rival's school?" stated a very angry looking rui. Mikan gulped. Did i already told you i was cursed... because i seriously am...

Boy oh boy...

Mikan gulped and took step backwards. "he he...I can see you are very busy…and my classes are starting soon. Skipping is very bad, so bye bye!" said mikan in a hurry, she turned around and was about to run for her dear life but unfortunately for her rui grabbed her shoulder and made her turn around. Mikan quickly put on the i-am-innocent act.

She grabbed rui's waist like a koala, crying waterfall tears. Rui sighed. Mikan looked up to him. "rui, I am really really sorry, but daddy told me to come here and I didn't have time to tell you and I really really didn't know this was the school you hated" said mikan innocently. Rui looked at her, her could never be mad at her. She was too precious to lose.

"it's okay princess. It is the fault of that damn old man" said rui furiously. Mikan sweatdropped. Younchi coughed grabbing their attention. Mikan happily skipped over towards younchi and the others, she greeted them cutely, it made them smile. She was their leaders girl after all.

Natsume looked at the scenery in front of him. Koko coughed. "can you believe it? we have rui's girlfriend in our school" said koko shocked. Natsume smirked. This makes everything interesting.

Mikan walked over to rui and hugged him, he gave a light kiss on her forehead. Natsume cleared his throat. "oi, are you gonna fight or what? You came all the way to kick our asses didn't you?" said natsume as he smirked. Rui glared at him as mikan pulled away. She crossed her arms.

"I see you are busy, we will meet up tomorrow. Tonight I have things to unpack" said mikan quietly as she bid them goodbye and walked away. Rui sighed.

"mikan wait!" yelled rui as mikan walked away. She turned around and faced him with a small smile.

"don't worry I am not mad. I just…I will see you tomorrow, don't be late!" said mikan as she waved and walked away. No she wasn't mad but she just didn't wanted to see the sight of rui that everyone was afraid of. She only wanted to know the nice and good hearted rui, she would never ever wanted to see his bad side. No, never again… she was known as fearless, sharp girl but rui somehow made her turn into a soft, vulnerable girl.

She really loved him, that's what everyone tells her. He has never left her side and she wouldn't want him to. But she didn't know if this was love or something else. In a film they said that when you are in love you feel butterflies and you can't take your mind and thoughts off that person. She hadn't felt any of this… but she loved him, right?

Rui looked at natsume. "I am warning you hyuuga. Stay away from her" said rui dangerously as he walked towards natsume. Natsume smirked.

"I don't remember me listening to you…ever" said natsume as he raised his eyebrow.

"and besides your girlfriend isn't the sexiest woman alive, if she was that hot I would definitely take her" said natsume cockily. Rui smirked.

"don't worry, you will take your interest in her but she will never be yours. Mark my words hyuuga" said rui as he walked away leaving his gang behind to fight natsume's.

"that was rather shocking" said ruka as he thought about what had happened the past 10 minutes.

"that girl is already hated and now we know that she is Rui's girlfriend… damn this day gets better and better" said mochu as he smirked.

"oi, what are you waiting for…" said hayate as he smirked. Both of the gangs walked towards each other. May the best gang win…

Mikan walked in the hallways, whistling a song. She heard footsteps behind her. She stooped and quickly turned around. No one was there, she shrugged and happily walked further.

Then the footsteps returned, this time mikan was sure someone was following her she turned around and saw nothing again. She tip toed towards the lockers and saw someone bending down. She looked at the person she caught.

It was the same girl from the hallways. She was really beautiful with her black short hair. And white skin. Her red lips stood out together with her big black eyes. The girl glared at her.

"whatcha doing?" said mikan cutely. The girl stood up and faced her.

"making photos" murmured the girl softly. Mikan smiled.

"of me? Wow that's so cool" said mikan happily. The girl looked weirdly at her. Mikan thought of an idea.

"wait let me help" mikan posed with a a peace sign and a wink. The girl just looked at her.

"what are you waiting for? Make photos silly" said mikan as you could see hotaru smirking, she started clicking, after awhile hotaru was done.

"why do you make photos?" said mikan as she looked at hotaru.

"money" said hotaru shortly as mikan sweatdropped, She giggled.

"well, it would be nice to be friends" said mikan as she stuck out her hand. Hotaru looked at her hand and then at her.

"can I make photos of you anytime I want?" asked hotaru curiously as mikan nodded happily.

"then let's be friends" said hotaru as she shook mikan's hand.

Both of them walked towards the class. Hotaru sighed as mikan was about to open the door.

"what's wrong?" asked mikan as hotaru glared at the door.

"it the class of that baka teacher, jinno-sensei" said hotaru as she opened the door mikan looked confused as she walked in. the moment she walked in... there flew a marker towards her head, she quickly dodged it. there was a rather old looking teacher with a frog on his shoulder glaring at them.

"sorry sir we are late because mikan was lost and I helped her. She is new" lied hotaru as she looked at the teacher, the glare didn't disappear but he did nod.

"take your seat and don't let this happen again". As mikan walked to her seat she saw most of her classmates glaring at her. Great… I am feeling so loved…

She sat on her seat and grabbed her notebook. She wrote the answers of the questions on the blackboard in her notebook. After awhile the door slid open and the gang walked in, mikan looked up and saw that the teacher said nothing. She cursed softly. That damn stupid baka teacher… what's so special about those guys? both students and teachers are scared?

Mikan noticed that some of them had minor cuts and bleedings, she worried for Rui. Natsume sat next to her and looked towards her.

"aren't you worried for your precious boyfriend?" said natsume amused mikan didn't look up.

"no, I will see him tomorrow. He will be okay" said mikan quietly. he always has been…

Mikan smirked she started to understand everything. "do you feel threatened" said mikan as she smirked. Natsume glared at her.

"by you? You got to be kidding me" said natsume as he smirked. His gang joined him.

"no… by rui" said mikan finally facing him with a cold face natsume looked surprised.

"why would we feel threatened by your boyfriend?" said ruka as he looked at her.

"he is dangerous, you guys know absolutely nothing about him. I suggest you watch out. I didn't tell him anything about you annoying me but I won't hesitate if you go too far" said mikan with a low but stern voice. Natsume became furious, he grabbed her chin roughly.

"what the hell… just because you have the looks you think your queen of this school, listen carefully bitch… I won't hesitate to hurt you, it doesn't matter if you're a girl or not" said natsume as he pushed her away. He stood up and walked out of the room followed by the others mikan glared at him.

The teacher glared at her. "mikan sakura, DETENTION!" yelled jinno sensei. Mikan sighed. Damn that stupid teacher…

"I m going to kill that fucking stupid girl!" yelled natsume as he kicked the wall, yuu smirked.

"hey guys, I have the perfect idea: we can hurt both mikan and rui" said yuu as the others looked curiously at him. He told them the plan, on natsume's lips formed a smirk.

"that is a fucking good idea" said natsume as he had a dangerous glint in his eyes.

Mikan ran out of the class together with hotaru as jinno sensei yelled after her. "COME BACK! YOU HAVE DETENTION!" mikan stuck out her tongue and grabbed hotaru's hand. They ran towards the roof.

Mikan scanned the roof for her cap. She found it and put it on she posed for hotaru so she could snap photos. They sat on the ground enjoying their lunch.

"how did you end up with the well known Rui" said hotaru as she ate her crab salad. Mikan smiled.

"I honestly don't know, he has always been there" said mikan, she really didn't know. To were her memories go, he has always been there…

"so hotaru what do you like to do?" said mikan as she observed hotaru. She was a quiet girl but don't mess with her, she has a sharp tongue.

"making money I guess" said hotaru as mikan noted to ask hotaru someday why she loved money so much…

"mikan, I am warning you…stay away from Black fire…" said hotaru mikan looked confused.

"seriously, why does everyone keep saying that?" said mikan frustrated hotaru stayed silent for a while.

"because they are dangerous, they were involved in dangerous cases…the underworld mikan" said hotaru as mikan gulped. She would love to stay away from them but somehow she caught their attention…

Lunch ended and mikan and hotaru headed to class. The gang wasn't there so mikan sat next to hotaru. As the period ended mikan and hotaru were the last one to leave. A girl blocked their way out. She opened her coke and dumped it on mikan. Her clothes and hair were soaked wet. Mikan glared at her. the girl smirked at her.

Hotaru grabbed a broom and kicked the girl away, she grabbed mikan and both of them ran to the restroom.

Mikan pulled her dirty cap of and her once beautiful grey vest. Her white tank top was covered in coke. She washed her tank top and then dried it. Hotaru didn't hesitate and gave mikan her short sleeves black and white checkered jacket to put over her tank top. Mikan smiled gratefully at her.

Mikan quickly washed her hair and pulled it in a messy bun. She put her vest and cap in her bag and walked statisfied out together with hotaru.

"Neh, hotaru… I would understand if you wouldn't want to be my friend…everyone hates me here" said mikan softly. Hotau stopped and faced her.

"just because I don't talk a lot doesn't mean I hate you. We are the same, that's why I chose to be friends with you and besides you seem strong, no one will be able to break you if you stay this way" said hotaru mikan hugged her hotaru pulled away. She smiled slightly.

mikan and hotaru walked towards their last class and no one was there... mikan and hotaru shrugged and were about to walk out when the door closed. mikan and hotaru quickly turned around. they saw a group of 4 guys standing in front of the door.

"so, what are you girls doing here? classes ended already" said one of them. he had messy blond hair and blue eyes, he was kind of cute.

"we were just leaving" said hotaru as she pulled mikan with her to the door, one of them grabbed hotaru's wrist, he had blue spiky hair. hotaru tried to pull away but the second guy grabbed her other wrist. mikan slapped the guy who pulled hotaru's wrist. the blue-haired guy pushed mikan away towards the blondie.

"let go of her" said mikan harshly. the guy just smirked, he slammed mikan against the wall... the other two guys grabbed her wrists.

"let go of her, you animals!" yelled mikan in their face. the guys just smirked.

"you know, besides your pretty face and hot body...you have nothing else useful, your mouth is to loud" said the guy as the others agreed.

"so what? just leave hotaru alone" said mikan outraged. this school was really full of animals. mikan stepped on the guys foot. he yelped in pain, in anger he tore the jacket mikan was wearing but in rage he unconsiously grabbed mikan's tubetop and tore it together with her jacket. he looked guilt for a second mikan noticed.

mikan in shock quickly tried to cover her bra with her both arms, she felt tears swelling up. hotaru yelled at the guys to come free but nothing helped. suddenly the door slipped open and black fire entered.

"so changed your mind? if your smart you would listen to us to avoid another attempt rape" said natsume as he walked up to her. the other guys walked in and sat somewhere. natsume smirked as he looked at her. ruka on the other hand kept looking at hotaru. she gave him a cold, disgusted look and turned away.

"so useless... woman are useless... and you better do as we say or else..." said natsume as mikan began to remble in anger, she looked at natsume and tears fell from his eyes. natsume was shocked for a second.

"or what? you will rape me? you guys want my respect but will never get it. you earn respect... you can't demand it dammit! you think people respect you? they are fucking afraid of you!" said mikan outraged by these guys.

"look at them, do they look afraid of you? YES, THEY DON'T EVEN LOOK YOU IN THE FUCKING FACE" yelled mikan as she forced him to looked at the guys who attacked her earlier. they looked at the ground feared to look up.

"so what? they should be afraid right? and besides you should be more afraid... your the one who's standing in a bra" said natsume amused as mikan looked around, he was right... she was surrounded by men. hotaru, quickly stepped on the guy's foot to come free and walked towards mikan. ruka was about to stop her but she glared at him.

"just don't... she is right i have never met things like you guys. i don't even dare to call you humans... shameless" said hotaru quietly. ruka looked schocked at her. hotaru placed her arm around mikan and they walked out.

natsume was left speechless. she dared to talk back at him with all his friends here. she insulted him...

"natsume you okay?" said ruka curiously. natsume was shaking in anger and he knew that mikan was right. everyone was afraid of them they didn't gain respect...no they demanded it...

mikan was silent as hotaru brought her to her room. "mikan, they didn't used to be bad... they were actually good people but everything changed after a accident... they blamed them for something they didn't do... everyone here helped them become like this, but what happend today was unforgiveable. i didn't expect ruka to be a part of this... shameless" said hotaru in a dissapointed voice. mikan noticed something.

"say hotaru. do you know them that well?" said mikan curiously. hotaru looked at the ground.

"yes... i used to be ruka's girlfriend" said hotaru as mikan looked shocked.

"ong! ruka's girlfriend!" said mikan as she giggled hotaru smiled a little but it vanished.

"i used to be... not anymore" said hotaru as mikan looked at her... she hugged her...

hotaru stayed with mikan for a while. adter gotaru left mikan cleaned up her room and went to the bathroom to shower. she looked in the mirrior. it was that stupid face's fault. "you made them notice me" said mikan to the mirror. after a while she shook her hair. "i am beginning to sound crazy" said mikan as she walked in the shower.

"after dressing up she grabbed her phone for any messages. she opened a message from rui.

tomorrow 6 pm i am picking you up, dress nicely we are going out.

rui

mikan smiled and texted back. as she placed her phone on the table she walked to her window. she inhaled the scent of the nature.

natsume used to be good? i can't imagine it... but everyone has a dark past, even me... but i still wish to meet this nice natsume somehow it makes me eager...

natsume on the other hand couldn't sleep. that girl... tch

Somewhere outside the academy…

"you stupid old men! How can you let her go to that fucking school" said a gorgeous guy. The 'old men' turned around in his chair and faced him with a frown on his face.

"you're going to be my future son-in-law. Show some respect will you" said the 'old men' in a stern voice. The gorgeous guy sighed.

"I sent her there so we can bring his son down… we will have the victory. Trust me… his son will pay for his father's sin" said the 'old men'. The gorgeous guy smirked.

"they always want what they can't have, that will bring them down at any cost".
