-------------------------------OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO--------------------------------
CHAPTER FOUR- DATE WITH RUKA
"Mikan, where are you going?" my mom asked as she saw me changing in my room.
"Nothing special mom. I'll just meet up with a friend of mine. You know, Ruka, he told me that he'll treat me today." I said.
"Is it like a date?" she asked curiously.
"Um…not really a date but maybe…you know date between friends." I said.
"So…why are you in a hurry?" my mom asked. So she has noticed…
"Oh mom…I'm late already! We'll meet up today at 10 pm at Tokyo plaza and look what's the time now…11 already. Am I okay mom?" I asked as I finish changing. I was wearing a short sleeve pink blouse and short denim skirt. I let my hair fall and I wear flats.
"Mikan you look beautiful like a modern day princess." She said ecstatically.
"Gee…thanks mom." I said then hug her. I decided to bring my guitar. It's always with me since I was still a child and I feel incomplete without it.
I hurriedly went downstairs. Just then there was a honking noise. Oh no! Maybe Ruka got tired of waiting that he already went to my home to fetch me.
"Can you get the door for me please Mikan? I think it's Natsume." She said while taking some steps.
"Natsume?! What is he going to do in here?" I asked confused then I went to open the door. Sure enough there was Natsume who went out of his limousine and was looking at me with a smirk on his face.
"Tch. Where are you going blue berries?" he said smirking.
"I'm just going to meet up with Ruka. Why? Why are you in my house? And what's that bag in there?" I asked pointing at the small bag more like a briefcase but only larger in his hand.
"Oh…didn't your mom say that I'm going to live in your house for 3 days?" he asked.
"I…you're going to live here for 3 days?!" I asked utterly bewildered.
"Oh…Mikan…sorry Natsume-kun I forgot to tell Mikan…actually Mikan…Natsume's parents are going on a business trip and they left Natsume to our hands. They say that Natsume will live in our house for 3 days or he might be a little lonely in his house." My mom explained.
"Okay…that's fine with me! But mom…I have to go now…I'm running late already." I cried. Oh…I will be soo late…I said goodbye to both mom and Natsume then I run to the nearest train station.
I then take the train that will be closest to Tokyo plaza. Good thing that the train moves faster than usual. Maybe because there are only little passengers. When I arrive at the Tokyo plaza, there were so many people in there. I wonder though if Ruka is still waiting for me.
Just then I heard somebody called out to me. Finally, it's Ruka!
"Mikan! I'm here!" Ruka called out on his place. I then went to him running.
"Sorry Ruka! I was late! I slept so late last night and I must have…overslept…Did you wait that long?" I asked. I was really up late last night. Probably because I was getting excited having a date with Ruka.
"Oh…it's okay Mikan-chan. I even think that you might be late since you still have to sleep more. You know rest a little after what happen yesterday." He said. OMG! He is so nice…and once I realize it…he's so handsome today!
"Yeah…I really overslept! Hahaha!!!" Then suddenly my stomach grumbled. Hehehe…guess I'm already hungry.
"Hahaha…you might be hungry Mikan-chan…come on let's eat!" he said. Gosh! I can't wait what we will do today!!!
I followed Ruka as he went to a restaurant. We then took our seats and a menu was already in the table and also a waiter waiting for us to order.
"Hmm…choose what you like Mikan…" he said as he was starting to order.
"Umm…maybe sushi…" I said. Ruka chuckles and said to the waiter that they will have two sushi and two spaghettis then some refreshments. The waiter then went to the counter to bang our orders.
"You like sushi?" I asked.
"Yeah…it's my favorite!" he said.
"Really?! It's my favorite too!" I said excitedly. I didn't think that me and Ruka could have similar favorite foods that we like.
Then the waiter came and gives us our orders. Hmm…so hot and delicious! I then began to eat the sushi as Ruka was twirling his spaghetti.
"Delicious! The sushi's delicious in here!" I cried.
"Yeah! It's my favorite restaurant especially because they serve such delicious sushi. I always even order twice." He smiled.
"Hmm…itsh…really nishe…" I said while eating.
"Hey Mikan-chan, you have sushi in your cheeks…" Ruka said pointing at my face.
"Huh? What? Where?" I asked him. He smiled and point at the location.
"Oh…thanks…" I said as I get the small bit of sushi out. "Thank you…"
"It was nothing…I always have those stuff too." He said.
After we ate and a nice chat we went outside and were enjoying the breeze…I wish these happy feelings would always last…
"So…where do you want to go next Mikan-chan?" he asked. Hmm…where do I want to go next? I want to do something fun…just then I spotted the big Ferris wheel…then an idea pop on my head.
"Ruka…there…in that big Ferris wheel…" I said pointing at the Ferris wheel.
"You want to go to an amusement park?" he asked.
"Yeah…" I said.
"Okay…let's go!" he said then we walk to our destination. I can't believe that I can go to the amusement park with Ruka. I mean…they might think that we are on a date…wait! We are on a date…but just a friendly date…but all in all…it's a date! Tee hee!!!
When we arrive at the amusement park, there were many people in there. I grin…I want to ride on some rides already.
"So…where do you want to go first? The Ferris wheel?" Ruka asked.
"Um…no…let's save it for later…well…I want something fun…do you know any?" I asked and we began to think. What could be nice?
"Well…let's try the Bump Cars then." He said pointing at some bump cars and some people enjoying it.
"Okay! It could be nice!" I said then we trotted to the bump cars. We then ride on some bump cars. I rode the flashy red bump car and Ruka take the blue bump car and then we began to swing the steering wheel.
"Whoa! It's fun!" I cried as I was being bump by one of the riders. We laugh with each other. I then decided to bump Ruka.
"Hey!" Ruka smiled.
"So…you want to play a game with me?" I asked.
"Okay! I'm on it!!!" he cried then I began to stir my steering wheel away from him. The game's like playing tag. Right now, Ruka's tag and I have to get away from him or I'll be the 'it'.
"Catch you!" Ruka cried as he bump into mine.
"Oh…you are so into it…" I cried then I stir again my steering wheel faster as Ruka was getting far away.
We really enjoy it. I hope that moments like these could still continue. I'm really so happy being with Ruka. After a few minutes, we stop playing and went on a bench to rest.
"Whew! That was fun!" I cried as I was panting.
"Yeah…pant…where you want to go next?" he asked.
"Um…maybe later…let's buy some snacks." I said then we went to the nearest Howalon store that I could find.
"Howalons! Want some?" I asked as I bought one box of it. I really love Howalons. Aside from sushi, this is also one of my favorites.
"Yeah…" he said then gets one of it.
"Hmm…where should we go next…?" I muttered. Then suddenly we heard some screaming and we just realize that it was some people who were riding the roller coaster. Must be scared I think…
"Want to try the roller coaster?" Ruka asked. Oh no! I don't really like it…
"Uh…no…we'll try other rides…" I said.
"You're scared of roller coasters?" he asked worriedly.
"Well, not really…it's…just…gives you a scary feeling. Look, the people are even scared." I said although I just realize that the people riding it weren't scared but actually happy. They were happily waving their arms.
"Well…I think they're happy…not scared at all…come on let's try the roller coaster. And besides I'm with you so you don't need to be afraid." Ruka said smiling. Oh… he really is so nice…I nod and then we wait in the line. When it was our turn, we sat beside each other. At least, in this way, I could feel safe…secure…
"Get ready Mikan-chan…" Ruka said smiling.
"Y-yea…" I said weakly. I hope it'll be over soon…then it began to move up to the top. Ruka suddenly hold my trembling hand and tell me that it'll be okay. Then as we were on top…it suddenly fall…
"KYAA!!!" I cried. Oh…it was really so scary…after some circles and some whatsoever bumpy ride it is we reach for another top…oh…it isn't over yet?
"Mikan-chan…just hold your hand up high and you'll feel that you're just enjoying it…like this…"he said as he raise both his hand…well…I think so…so I began to rise my hands as it began to fall down again…but this time…it's really exciting! It wasn't even scary at all!!!
"KYAA!!! IT FEELS SO GOOD!!!" I cried. It really is…the scary feeling that I felt earlier was gone now and was replace by a happy feeling that was enjoying the ride. After we rode the roller coaster it was starting to get dark so we decided to ride the Ferris wheel.
"Wow! It's so nice and so big!!!" I cried as our cab was getting higher and higher.
"It's really so nice…" he muttered and just then Utada Hikaru's First Love was sung and the music even reaches on the top.
"I really like the song…" I said.
"Hm? First Love?" Ruka asked.
"Yeah…it's wonderful and sad…I mean…it tells about like two lovers who were broken apart…"
Saigo no kisu wa tabako
No flavor ga shita
Nira kute setsunai kaori
"…and the girl still remembering those moments that they have and hoping to move on…"
Ashita no imagoro ni wa
Anata wa doko ni irun darou
Dare wa omouterundarou…
"…but still she still remembers that the guy will always gonna be her first love…"
You are always gonna be my love
Itsuka…dare kato mata koi ni ochitemo
I'll remember to love, you taught me how
You are always gonna be the one
Imawa…mada kanashii love song…
Atarashi uta utare umade…
"…it's so sad…like she says…it's going to be just a sad love story…" I muttered.
"Yeah…really is sad…" he said then there were some fireworks and both of us were really amazed by it. It was so wonderful!
"Wonderful! It's so wonderful Ruka!" I cried excitedly…
"Yeah…" he said and we enjoyed seeing the fireworks. After that Ruka brought me home.
"I really have fun Ruka! Thanks!" I smiled.
"Yeah…I have fun too…see you tomorrow…" he said then wave goodbye to me. I waved back and when his car is already out of sight I was giggling like mad!
It was so wonderful! To spend a day with your long time crush and going to an amusement park and have to enjoy such wonderful fireworks! I can't wait to tell Natsume and mom.
"I'm home!" I called out.
"Mom? Natsume? Are you home?" I asked…maybe they're eating outside. Guess I'll just tell them later what happen.
When I went upstairs it was to find my mom sleeping at my bed. I then wake her up…
"Mom…wake up…why are you here?" I asked as I wake my mom up.
"W-what? Oh it's you honey! How's the date?" My mom asked.
"Oh…it was fun! Where's Natsume mom? I want to tell him about what happen…" I asked.
"Oh…that…well…Natsume went home honey…I don't know but in the afternoon he just said that he'll just have to go home already…" my mom said sadly.
"Bu-But I thought that he's going to stay here for 3 days?" I asked confused. What's wrong with him again?
"Yeah…I told him that one…but he says that he can manage at all and then he said goodbye and went to his home." My mom said.
"Don't worry mom…I'll persuade Natsume tomorrow to stay here while his parents are away…he might be lonely in there…" I said worriedly.
"Yeah…just tell Natsume to just stay for tomorrow night honey…" mom said happily. "So…can you tell me what happen in your date?"
"Oh yeah…" I said then I began to tell my mom what happen. After that we both snuggle into my bed and went to sleep. Today's been one of the happiest days of my life!
