Chapter 7

I trusted you, I thought I could trust him. But what do I get? The most closest people betray me .. Just like that? Well fine, Do what you want.. I cant take your bull shit any more.

"Mikan? How about we go away this weekend, For you to get your mind off of things?" My mom asked me. She finally came to pick me up.. She was so worried.. My face was all messed up with my hair in my face and my tears still coming down my cheeks.

I nodded. I was in the car as my mother was driving. "I would really like that." I said.

I new my mother was worried for me deeply.. I only told her of half of what happened.. All I told her was Hotaru was a bad friend and I broke up with Natsume because I realized the relationship we had could not work.

"Well, you need to take a shower and sleep when we get home." She told me. I nodded. It was 1:30 in the morning.. My mom was sleeping when I called.. But she got up as soon as she herd me crying.

"I'm tired." I told her.

"Its alright, we will be home soon." She told me.

I sighed. "Alright." I said.. I'm still acting like a twelve year old.. I really cant let my mom take care of me at a stage like this.. But I couldn't help it, I was messed up.


I heard the ringing of my phone all day, I already new who it would be.. Either Hotaru, Natsume or Ruka... Don't get me wrong, I'm not one bit mad at Ruka, He is really the only one I can actually trust now. I blocked Natsume and Hotaru's From calling , I didn't want to talk to anyone at all.. I need a break.

"Mikan! Come on." My mom yelled.

Guess where I'm going? I'm going somewhere I don't know because my mom said it was a surprise. "Coming!" I yelled back to her.

Maybe this will get things off my mind.

I left my room leaving my phone turned off, I wanted no one calling me at all. I left the house with the last of my bags. "Lock the door Mikan." My mom told me. I nodded and locked the door with my key. My mom was in the car, she was waiting for me.

I got in on the passengers side and closed the door behind me. "Now tell me where we are going?" I asked her. My mom smiled . "You'll know when you see it." She told me. I sighed. "Fine." I said. My mom pulled the car out of the drive way and onto the rode. And began driving.

"Can you a least tell me how long we will be there?" I asked her.

"Just for the weekend." She told me. I sighed. Where ever we were going I wanted to stay there forever, I had to go back to school soon... I'm going to be like a little child...and say "Poop"


"Mikan wake up, you cant sleep."

My eyes flew open to see none other that my mother smiling. "W-Where are we?" I asked her. I yawned. I was sleeping the whole time.

"Mikan is still sleep?" Said a very familiar voice.

I put my head up and smiled a little. "Jii-chan?" I said. I looked up and saw my grandfather outside the car smiling. I got out the car to hug him. "I missed you." I told him softly.

"Look at you, all grown up.. Your taller that me." He said.

I laughed . "Yeah, I have come along way." I told him. My mom got the bags out of the car. "Come on, there is still people waiting for you Mikan." My mom told me. I nodded.

"Just let me get my phone." I told her and ran back into the car.

I got my phone and turned it back on for it to go charge. When it turned on it said.

42 missed calls.

I thought I blocked Them?

I was gonna turn it off when it rang, I sighed.. I looked at my phone to see who it was this time... It was Ruka.

No harm in done to answer right?

I Hesitated but I did answer it.

"Hello?"

"Mikan? We really need to talk." Ruka said. I sighed. I didn't want to talk, I'm having a break.

"What? I'm kind of doing something right now."

"You really need to talk to Natsume! He is crushed!" I rolled my eyes.

"Not my problem.." I realized I was being to nice to Natsume, I forgot the most Important thing, He cheated on me.

"Mikan you don't understand the whole situation, Just tell us where you are." He told me, what? Is he joking? He thinks I will tell him where I am?

"Us? Hell no!"

"Mikan We just want to get this whole thing figured out... Please."

"I'm somewhere far away." I told him. "If Natsume is with you you-"

"He's not with me, he's with Hotaru..." He told me.

"What do you mean?"

"He's pissed at her, he thinks Hotaru did something to you.. or something.. I don't know."

"I don't want to talk to either of them.. I don't.. I'm finished with them."

"Well... Can you at least tell me what happened, I really don't know whats going on my self." I sighed. He doesn't know anything does he? If I tell him Hotaru never loved him and that she was Just Using him to get to Natsume, he'll be... More broken then he was before.

"Ruka... I... I will tell you when I get back... Good bye." I said and hanged up.

I took a deep breath.

"Mikan! What are you doing? There are people waiting to see you." My mom called out. I sighed.

"Give me a couple of Minutes." I told her.

I looked at my phone... I'm pissed at Hotaru but... I think I need to call her back.

I dialed her Number in my phone and waited for her to pick up.

"Hello?" I said.

"Are you Fucking Kidding me?" I heard a voice from the background.. Whats going on?

"I didn't mean too! She had to know the Fucking truth!"

"Don't give me that Bull shit Imai! Now the girl I love is confused and she hates me!"

"Oh shut the Hell up! You never loved Mikan! If you loved her so much Why did you do it, you hooked up with someone else!" I kept listening, Was that Hotaru? The other persons voice sounded like ... Natsume?

" It wasn't my fault! She was pushing me , I couldn't take it! But... You! You were the one who paid the bitch? Why the hell would you do something to her like that?"

"Shut up! Why would you cheat on her like that? Your no better than me."

"Don't change anything! Why did you do it Imai?

There was a pause, Hotaru must of left the phone on.

"Because...I...Liked...You... I loved... you." She told Natsume. "I wanted you to love me."

Was this a confession? I didn't say a single word, I just kept listening, I heard Hotaru crying. It was a very long pause before Natsume could answer.

"The only person I will ever love is Mikan... And Mikan only... You are just like those other pathetic bitches trying to get a guy... You didn't only hurt Mikan... You hurt Ruka too.. I'm done."

I heard a loud slam, I think it was the door... And all I heard then.. Was Hotaru crying... Very loudly. That was so unlike her... It was really out of Character...

I sighed.. I hanged up the phone.. What can I do now?

I got my phone and closed the car door.

What could I have done... Nothing.. I didn't know if I was sad for Hotaru, or was...Happy. I couldn't be. I cant be that cruel to just laugh in her face.. I should have never picked up the phone.

I really need a break.

I don't want to think about it... At all.
