Ok guys so here's chapter 7! Hohohoho so sorry for the late update… anyway hope you guys will continue to read this until the end… I don't know how many chapters will there be, but maybe 15 chapters will do? What you think? :O anyway enjoy!
And yeah the casts here are a bit OOC so hope it's fine with you ahahahahahah.
Disclaimer: I don't own GA and the songs that will be mentioned here are not mine either, but I'm planning to write one… ahahahahah I just don't know when and it still depends on how the story will progress 'cause I seriously have no idea how to end this! :P
"That's all for today guys! Thanks for your hard work," Hotaru announced.
"Ne Hotaru… when are we going to have a second concert?" Yuu asked.
"Yeah manager when are we having our concert? I believe our fans are waiting for it," Koko said while grinning.
Hotaru rolled her eyes and merely shrugged.
"I don't know… we still have to arrange your schedules for the other shows in which you guys will be the guests and we need to find sponsors and stuff, though it will be a lot easier this time to look for sponsors since you guys are well known."
"How about a world tour after the shows here? We've done a major concert here and it was sold out, so how about trying a world tour?" Ruka asked.
"Hmmm, we can do that if all of your schedules are settled. Don't you guys forget you still have a photo shoot for a magazine and an advertisement to do."
"Tsk it won't take us a month to do all those stuff, maybe we can start with the tour next month?" Natsume asked.
"Maybe… I'll go check with the directors and other staff if they will allow you to tour. You guys can rest we won't have any recordings until the day after tomorrow so you can just sleep all day if you like."
"I'll go with you so that we can leave together," Ruka said.
"Sure! C'mon bunny boy. See you guys. I'll just call you if they will approve. Ja!"
"Hotaru sure did wrapped Ruka around her finger," Koko commented.
"Yeah seems like he's really in love, what do you think Natsume?" Yuu asked.
"Hn."
"What? You don't believe Ruka's in love with her? I mean c'mon man! You're Ruka's best bud is he planning to get married soon?" Koko asked.
"Well if he's happy then we have to support him. And besides Imai's in love with him, just look at the way they stare into each other's eyes," Natsume answered nonchalantly.
"What's wrong with you? Are alright Natsume?" Koko asked worriedly as he placed a hand on Natsume's forehead.
"What the hell Koko!? Of course I'm fine!" Natsume roared and removed Koko's hand from his forehead.
Yuu just laughed and Koko chuckled.
"It's just not like you to talk about love and stuff. Seriously Natsume are you in love?" Koko asked suspiciously.
"None of your business. So what now? Do we just seat here and talk about some trivial stuff? Or should we go out and grab some drinks and chicks?" Natsume asked.
"I thought you'd never said that! Let's go!" Koko said excitedly.
Each of them was driving their separate cars but they were headed to the exclusive club where they usually meet. As soon as Natsume was making a right turn he saw a familiar brunette waiting for a cab. He stopped his car in front of Mikan and rolled down his car window.
"Mikan… do you need a ride home?" Natsume asked.
Shocked was evident on Mikan's face the moment Natsume's car stopped in front of her rolled down the window.
"Uh… it's ok I'll just get a cab," Mikan answered nervously as she started to walk on the other direction.
But before Mikan could go any further a warm and soft hand grabbed her hand gently. When she turned around she saw Natsume's eyes staring at her intently.
"I'll drive you home… please get in the car fast before someone will notice me," Natsume spoke calmly as he tried his best to hide his irritation and anger.
"The hell! Why did I have to get out of my car! This is bad! If some stupid fan girl will know me… heck! I didn't even know why I got out in the first place. I mean I don't chase women, they are the ones chasing me! Well except for that bitch… why am I calling Luna a bitch…? Damn this girl! The moment when she started walking to the other direction I just felt like a needed to talk to her…I think I owe her an apology. Tsk, listen to yourself Natsume! You don't say sorry!"
"Uh… hello? Natsume? Are you having a monologue to yourself? 'cause people are staring at us now," Mikan said as she waved her other hand in front of Natsume.
"Hn, let's go."
Natsume opened the front door for Mikan quickly and got inside his car the moment he buckled Mikan's seat belt.
"So where do you live? Is it far from here?" Natsume asked.
"Uhm yeah it's a bit far."
Mikan gave Natsume her address and Natsume started driving. Silence engulfed the car and Mikan was a bit uncomfortable with it so she decided to talk.
"I just want…"
"I wanted to…"
The words were both said in unison as Mikan was looking at Natsume.
"Uh, you go first," Mikan said.
"No. you go first. What is it?" Natsume asked while glancing at Mikan.
"I'm sorry for the way I acted last time. I mean I just shocked and… and…"
Mikan couldn't continue what she about to say when she suddenly remembered that night, that night when she was treated like some kind of animal and that night when she lost her parents.
Ever since she lost her virginity and her parents Mikan tried her best to be strong, though it would seem to everyone that she's still the same but she's not. She stopped trusting anyone especially boys, she would sweat and hyperventilate if someone guy will go near her. Natsume noticed Mikan's voice was hoarse.
"Is she crying?"
He pulled the car to a stop at a park and turned to look at Mikan, whose tears were already pouring.
He felt a strong urge to hug her close but then stopped himself. He simply got a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to Mikan.
"Here take this."
Mikan looked at Natsume and accepted the handkerchief.
"Thank you. I'm so sorry for being like this…"
"Hn."
"I guess I should just walk from here. Jiichan's house is a few blocks away and…"
"No I'll drive you there. But you ready to go home? Your grandfather might think someone stole a candy from you."
Mikan smiled at Natsume's serious face.
"Why are you smiling like that?" Natsume asked as a blush slowly crept on his face.
"Nothing… it's just you're a bit corny but your face is still… well you have a poker face. Do you even know how to smile?" Mikan teased.
"Whatever. So what happened to you? Why started crying?" Natsume asked as he brought the engine back to life.
"I don't want to talk about it… but to tell you the truth I'm not comfortable with having a guy friend or some guy around me," Mikan confessed.
"So you're not comfortable with JUST me? Or does this apply with other guys?" Natsume asked.
Mikan winced when she heard a hint of anger from Nastume's voice.
"It's not that… it's not that I'm not comfortable with you just because I found out who you really are… it's hard to explain but it applies to all guys I meet."
Natsume sighed in relief when he knew it's not just about him.
"The hell?! Why should I care if she met many guys or even slept with them?! Crap I hope she didn't sleep with them or him or…. Whatever!"
"This is it. This is my Jiichan's home. I guess he's not yet home."
"You sure it's alright for you to be alone? That apartment looks old and… well you know. Is it safe?" Natsume asked.
"Uhuh. I'll be fine and well it's still sturdy. Hey have you eaten dinner? Do you want to come in?" Mikan asked.
"I thought you're not comfortable with having guys around you?"
"I'm not but I don't want to be rude to someone who gave me a free ride."
"Well this ride isn't free."
"What?!" Mikan shrieked.
Natsume just smirked and turned his car off.
"Go out with me."
"Huh?"
"Go out on a date with me…"
"Uh…"
"Let's just say it's my way of saying sorry about last time and consider it as a payment for this ride. Fine don't consider it a date… let's just have dinner."
"Why did I sound shaky? Natsume you bastard! You can seduce a lot of beautiful women! It's just Mikan! All you need is to do is to take her out and take her to your bed and you're done with her!"
"I'm not sure… uhm I really don't go out on dates and stuff. I…"
"It's not a date… ok?" Natsume said unable to mask the irritation in his voice.
"I don't know… well I guess it wouldn't be so bad. Then ok I will just promise me one thing will you?"
"Fine. What is it?"
"No holding hands, hugging or anything I want distance ok?" Mikan asked while looking at Natsume's crimson eyes.
"Hn. Yeah sure. Just because I look like this doesn't mean I'm no gentleman," Natsume said.
"Well then thanks for the ride. Good night and drive safely Natsume," Mikan said as she smiled and got out of the car.
When Mikan was inside her house Natsume drove his way back to the club.
"Yo Natsume! We thought you were following us? Where are you?" Koko asked.
"I'm on my way. Be there in 15… I'll hang up now ok?"
"The date's not gonna be bad Mikan, but you're gonna be naughty for me."
When Mikan got inside the house she checked her phone and saw Hotaru left a message for her.
"Mikan, meet me at the studio tomorrow at 9 a.m. sharp! The Director Koji would like to meet you. And prepare at least two songs… I suggest you sing the one you sang for us and the other one will be your choice. Good nyt. See you tomorrow baka. "
Mikan smiled and replied…
"Roger! Arigatou Hotaru. Good nyt."
Mikan cooked dinner but still her grandfather isn't home yet so she decided to write a song.
When she stared at the pad and pen she was holding she couldn't stop thinking about Natsume's red eyes.
"I'm scared that he might treat me the way that man treated me….but why couldn't I stop thinking about him? Mikan! Stop that! You must focus on writing a song! Hmm… but I can't… I really love looking at his eyes…"
"His eyes! That's it! Red!"
And with that Mikan started scribbling. After a few minutes Mikan's phone rang.
"Hello? Is this Mikan Sakura?"
"Yes. This is Mikan. May I know who's this?"
"This is from Tokyo General Hospital, your grandfather had a heart attack."
"What?! Is he alright?" Mikan asked worriedly as she started packing her things.
"I'm afraid not Miss Sakura."
"Ok I'll be there. Can you tell me the exact address there? I'm still new here in the city."
The nurse gave Mikan the address and she hastily left their house.
"Please let him be well… he's the only one I have."
Mikan silently prayed as she got inside a cab.
Ok there you have it… I know it's a bit boring! I'm sorry for that. It's 4pm here and I'm a bit sleepy. Anyway don't forget to leave a review ok? Thank you!
