Mikan: School! Yay! I can't wait to make new friends.
Me: Oh my gosh! That was the first time in my whole entire life that I have heard someone say that they liked school…
Hotaru: Just ignore the weirdo.
Mikan: Hotarruuuu!! How can you be so mean!
Youichi: Anyway, I'm bored… This story is getting really boooring.
Me: I'm trying my best. Hmph. I just wish I had more reviews.
Sumire: Kyaa!! NATSUME-SAMA!! Youichi-kun!
Me: I will never understand how she pops put of nowhere like that…
Jinno: Enjoy the story. Though I don't know why people read it… It's not educational at all.
Chapter 7
RING!! RING!!
"Oh man… Stupid alarm clock." groaned Mikan as she lazily rubbed her eyes, looking at the time.
"It's only seven thirty in the morning. For once I actually managed to wake up on time." said Mikan.
She glanced at Hotaru and felt a rush of friendship. She didn't want to wake her friend from her dreams. Besides, if she did wake the Ice Queen up, so early in the morning, Hotaru would be in a really grumpy mood. And that was never a good thing.
In the end, she decided to go for a walk. She put on her new school uniform. It was a white short sleeved shirt with a collar and a dark grey skirt that was mid thigh. Mikan wore her sport shoes, tied her hair in a messy pony tail and left the room.
Mikan took her first breath of fresh morning air, it was very refreshing. She knew her way around the palace better now. She hardly ever got lost anymore.
What a perfect way to start a day! Everything is so beautiful. It's wonderful to be alive! Thought Mikan. She was a really positive person…
In the distance, she saw Youichi playing around with a fish in the pond. Mikan jogged up and kneeled down next to him.
"You-chan, what are you doing?" asked Mikan as she cocked her head to the side in interest.
"Onee-chan? Oh, I'm feeding and playing with my baka fish." said Youichi.
"Baka fish?" asked Mikan curiously.
"Onii-sama gave it to me. He found it in the sea, near the shore. Its fin was hurt and I asked Onii-sama if I could have it." replied the silver haired boy.
"Oh…" said Mikan. She didn't know what to say. She had always thought Natsume was a big jerk who was mean to sea creatures.
"You're going to be late for school if you don't go now. Otou-san prepared a limo for you to ride with Onii-sama." said Youichi.
Mikan looked at her wrist watch, it was 9.29.
"WHAT!! I thought I was going to be early for once!" exclaimed Mikan.
Youichi just smirked.
"You-chan, I got to go now. See ya after school!" said Mikan.
"Hai."
Mikan sprinted toward the gate. The limo was just about to leave.
"Cotto matte kudasai!" said Mikan. (If anyone doesn't know, it means wait a minute.)
Natsume heard her voice and turned his head around.
"Late again?" teased Natsume.
"Oh shut up." said Mikan as she stepped into the dark limo.
"By the way, where's Hotaru, Ruka-pyon and Luna-san?" asked Mikan. She forgave and forgot everything very quickly and easily.
"Imai and Ruka already left in another limo. And who cares about Luna." said Natsume bitterly as he remembered what she said to Mikan. He hated her even more now that he had gotten to know Mikan better.
"Well… She's your girlfriend after all." said Mikan, with a hint of regret in her tone.
Natsume had no answer and they were silent for the rest of the ride.
When they arrived at Alice Academy, the limo was surrounded by swarms of screaming fan girls.
"Kuso." said Natsume as he pushed the car door open, trying to push the fan girls away.
Whereas Mikan sighed and left the limo trying to go unnoticed as she squeezed through the crowd.
She ran along the many corridors, until finally, she found her form room. The class was a mess, some students were standing on chairs, and others had their feet on the table. Most of them were spoilt rich peoples kids.
Rich bastards… (A/N I picked it out from Ouran High.)
Mikan scanned the class and saw Hotaru sitting down next to Ruka. She was working on a new invention as usual. Mikan was just about to walk up to her when two American boys appeared in front of her.
"Yo, I'm Joe!"
"Wassup, I'm Bob."
"Hi." replied Mikan politely.
"Did you know there are more chickens than people in the world?" said the guy so called Joe.
Bob just stood there nodding his head like there was no tomorrow.
"Really?" asked Mikan half curious and half amused.
"Seriously guys… Is that really the best way to greet a new student?" said a Chinese girl called Mei Ling. (A/N I told you it was full of different students from overseas.)
Then she turned to Mikan and said, "I'm sorry, their known as the class clowns. Just ignore them if you want." She started literally dragging them away.
Mikan just stood there smiling her big, cheerful smile.
"And just who are you?" asked a Japanese girl with seaweed coloured hair.
There was a badge pinned on her school uniform that practically screamed at you saying 'President of the Natsume, Ruka fan club' in bold red letters.
"President of the Natsume, Ruka fan club?" asked Mikan as she read it out.
"Yep! I'm Shouda Sumire, President of the Natsume, Ruka fan club." said Sumire haughtily.
"He even has an official fan club…" said Mikan in disbelief.
"I'm Sakura Mikan by the way." said Mikan.
Suddenly, the class fell silent; there was a ripple of whispers and giggles from most of the girls. The only person that could cause such a commotion without doing anything was Prince Natsume. He had his arm draped on Koizumi Luna's shoulders, but his expression was far from a caring, loving boyfriend. They were leading the gang.
Other than being a Prince, Natsume was famous for his amazing looks and cool character. While Luna, was known as the prettiest and most arrogant of all the girls at Alice Academy. She was the Alpha of a clique of girls called 'The Untouchables'. All the girls would have done anything to be part of their group. Who wouldn't want to be pretty and popular?
Mikan, who wasn't all that stupid, guessed their social status at school and pretended she didn't have any idea who they were. Luna shot a few glares at her and started leaning closer to Natsume, for the sake of hurting Mikan.
Ugh. I'll ignore them. I mean, who cares about Natsume. I know he likes her and she likes him too. A match made in heaven right? I'll just get in the way. Maybe I can convince otou-san to cancel the engagement. Thought Mikan. Though deep inside, she knew she was lying to herself.
Mikan walked over to sit next to Hotaru, when the teacher came in. The students usually couldn't care less about a new teacher, but this one was different. The noisy class instantly went silent. The new teacher was dark haired and had piercings all over his face. He looked really mysterious and there was an evil glint in his eye.
He looks familiar somehow… There's a strange and sinister feeling around him. He's bad news. Pondered Natsume.
Who is this teacher? It feels like I've met him somewhere. He feels evil for some reason. Thought Mikan as she stared out the window.
"My name is Parsano. (I didn't spell Persona's name wrong. He changed his name.) I am going to be your new form teacher. Do what I say and you won't get hurt." said Parsano. His voice was cold and hard.
Everyone in class immediately became scared of this new teacher.
"There are three new students today. Two of them are already here, I'm sure you have already met them, Sakura Mikan and Imai Hotaru. The last kid is Kagero Ryoujii." said Parsano in the same cold voice.
A boy strode into the class room. His hair was wavy, it was the same dark brown shade as his eyes, his skin was tanned just the right colour. In other words, he was tall, dark and handsome. The girls gasped and squealed as he threw them a charming smile that melted their hearts.
All the girls in class (With the exception of Hotaru and Mikan) gaped at him as he scanned the room. He was a guy worthy to compete with even Prince Natsume.
"There's an empty seat next to Sakura, you can sit there." said Parsano.
Ryoujii walked over to Mikan, and gave her a stunning smile. She blushed slightly at the warmth of his gaze.
"Hey." He said.
"Hi, I'm Sakura Mikan. You can call me Mikan if you like." said Mikan warmly.
"Mikan, what a pretty name. Kagero Ryoujii. Nice to meet you." replied the tall, dark stranger that stole the hearts of the girls who saw him.
"Thanks." smiled Mikan.
During lunchtime, Mikan walked into the cafeteria. On one side of the hall, was the Untouchable's table. They were sitting there along with the jocks and it goes without saying, Natsume. On the other side of the hall, were Hotaru, Sumire, Bob, Joe and Mei Ling.
Mikan hesitated for a split second before confidently striding over to the table with her friends. Suddenly, Ryoujii walked over to their table and asked if he could join them. They immediately said yes and shoved over to give him some space. In a few minutes, Mikan and Ryoujii seemed to be in a deep conversation with each other. Natsume, who was watching their every move in the corner of his eye, felt a small hint of jealousy crawling in the pit of his stomach.
Mikan's first day of school would be described as ordinary. She made fast friends with the two inseparable boys and Mei Ling. She found out that although Sumire seemed like a strong, mean person, she was actually really caring and nice. Also that she was a huge fan of Natsume and nothing would get in her way of marrying her dream prince. Not even Koizumi Luna. And lastly, a perfect guy had come into her life. His name was Kagero Ryoujii. He was the best guy friend any girl would kill to have.
Hotaru was thinking of ways to use the pictures from Central Town to blackmail people and earn more money.
"Nogi, you're coming with me." said Hotaru coldly.
"No. I got stuff to do." retorted Ruka. He would have gladly followed her any other day, but he had loads of homework from school.
"You have to. Or I'm gonna sell these pictures. Who knows how much money I could get from this." said Hotaru, with an evil smile. She was holding pictures of Ruka playing around with the animals in the barn.
"Where did you get those?" asked Ruka. He was starting to shake nervously.
"You said I could bring my camera." said Hotaru bluntly.
Ruka managed to grab the pictures and he tore them into a million pieces. He smiled triumphantly.
"I knew you were going to do that. So I made copies. You aren't gonna get away that easily." smirked Hotaru.
Ruka let out a sad sigh as he shrugged his shoulders in defeat.
"Fine, Hotaru, you win."
Mikan lay on her soft bed, her chestnut eyes were shut, thinking back at everything that had happened at school. She was trying to sort her mixed feelings about Luna, Ryoujii and Natsume. She was more confused than ever.
I think Ryoujii is a really kind person and he's really interesting too! I don't understand the feeling I got when I saw Natsume with Luna. There were butterflies in my stomach. And what's with the new teacher? Parsano, is it? Why does it feel like I've met him before? He seems kinda scary.
Before Mikan could do any more thinking, loud doorbell broke her train of thought.
"Would someone please get the door!" shouted an annoyed Natsume from his room.
"I'll get it!" she sang as she raced down the stairs.
When she saw the person standing at the door, her jaw dropped, her eyes widened in shock.
"W…Wh…What?" was all she could manage.
