A.N Sorry for my late update again... :'( I could not connect to the internet... Sorry! Ah... Anyway, I wrote a new story named Girlfriend or Fiancee, please support me by reading it and review! And of course, review this chapter please! Oh, and I don't own Greyson! He is an awesome singer! I ran out of name so...

(Normal POV)

Everyone crowded around Nobara's table as usual. They did not even noticed that the brunette was missing. Well, Natsume did not wait for Mikan today as he went to help Nobara as she discharge from the hospital. People crowd around Nobara's desk, asking if she is still feeling unwell. Luna saw all this and clenched her fists. Just then, Narumi came walking sadly into the room.

"Narumi-sensei? Why are you so gloomy today?" Nobara asked Narumi. Narumi just sobbed.

"Mikan-chan, she... she... she left! She left to America!" Narumi said. Everyone turned wide eyed. They did not expect her to leave. Who knew that she could not even receive such a small blow? Everyone scoffed silently at that thought. No one actually was sad for Mikan's absent. Yes. No one. Not even Nobara and Natsume. Poor Mikan. But then, revenge from her is on the way. Narumi snifffed and continue.

"Ah! I forgot that she left some letters before her plane took off!" Narumi said. This however, intriuged everyone's curiousity. What could Mikan Sakura, the hated girl left for them? Well, Narumi handed Hotaru and Natsume their letters. They read it.

(Italic-content of Hotaru's letter)

Hotaru, no, Imai. You know what? Ever since Nobara came, you changed. I know. I know what are you thinking right now. You must be thinking 'Tsk. Stupid girl. Why do you get jelous so easily' right? -sad smile- But Imai, I'm not jelous. I'm hurt. Why? Why do you care about Ibaragi more than me? I am your best friend! Do you remember that what Ibaragi did was what I did before? A thank you gift? You did not even bought one for me! I could not stand it! You let Luna slapped you, just becuase you wanted Ibaragi to rest in silence. But me? You did not even bother to visit me. I am going to forget you, Imai. Let's forget and erase our friendship. I will return someday. Trust me. And by then, I will turn into someone stronger. No more old Mikan. I just felt that there was a need to at least tell you the reason I leave. That's all. It's the end of us, Imai.

(Bold-content of Natsume's letter)

Natsume, I am really hurt. Why? Why do you care for Nobara more then me? Why? I do not understand! -sad smile- That's why I left, Natsume. I want answers. I am going to find my answers. Why didn't you visit me? I need you back then. More than Nobara. However, I do not need you now. Not now, not anymore. That's all. Goodbye, Hyuuga.

Narumi whiped a tear away.

"Now I'll read to you all Mikan's letter to the class except Natsume and Hotaru. Fellow classmates, I could not comprehend all of your different reactions. Forget about it. I bet you all will be thinking 'Ha. What the hell is this bitch talking about? Nobara is so much better than her! She should just go and die somewhere!' But, I want to tell you all, someday, you shall all regret how you treat me back those two days. When I return, I will be stronger." Narumi read as tears flow out of his eyes freely.

"Wuahhhh! Mikan-chan is sooooo poor! Poor Mikan-chan!" Narumi could not help but exclaim. The reactions of the 'sweet' classmates? They only scoffed. Pathetic. They should have understand how Mikan feel and get regretful for their actions. But instead of feeling regret, they only feel that Mikan is a pathetic, stupid, attention seeker. They were very happy for Mikan's absence deep inside but they did not show it.

"Hey, beautiful! Are you Mikan Sakura from the Japan Gakuen Alice?" A brunette asked Mikan once she reached the airport departure lane.

"Hai! Ah! Sorry! I mean yes." Mikan was a little anxious about this whole thing. In a country you had never been before alone, of course you would feel anxious. The brunette giggled.

"Anxious, are we? Okay, I'm Greyson Chance from the America Alice Academy!" Greyson introduced while he outstretch his hand for a handshake.

"Ahahaha... Nice to meet you!" Mikan said while shaking Greyson's hand. Greyson smiled.

"So... Let's go to America's Alice Academy in L.A!" Greyson took Mikan's hand in his and they went into a limo prepared by the America Academy.

"Awesome!" Mikan could not help but to go gaga over the Academy. It was really huge! Greyson could not help but to laugh at Mikan's reaction. It was his first time to see girls not going crazy for him and an innocent, interesting girl. Mikan looked at Greyson weirdly.

"Wh-what? Why are you laughing?"

"Ha... Nohing~"

"Hmph. You meanie! You won't tell!" Mikan exclaimed. Greyson just shoot her a smirk. A flashback came back into her mind.

Flashback

"Sugoi (awesome) ne, Nat! Where did you found this?" A certain brunette asked our flame caster. Natsume could not help but to laugh at Mikan's cuteness and reaction.

"Na-Nani? (Wh-What) Why are you laughing ne, Nat?"

"Haha... Nothing~"

Mikan pouted. "Hmph! You meanie! Nat won't tell!" Natsume just replied with a smirk

End of flashback

The light in Mikan's eyes died down. Of course, Greyson, being a very observant people, noticed Mikan's change. He was very worried for Mikan. 'Is it because of me? Did I brought unhappy flashback back to her?' All questions appeared in his mind.

"Sakura? I'm sorry! I shouldn't have do that! I... Did I just brought you unhappy flashbacks?" Greyson asked with worry. Mikan showed him a smile. A real smile over those two days of nightmare.

"Nah! You don't have to apologise! You just reminded me of my... boyfriend." Mikan answered. This time, Greyson was the one that was confused.

"Boyfriend? Then why are you sad? You're like... hurting. Is it boyfriend or ex-boyfriend?" Greyson asked. Mikan bited her lower lip.

"Boyfriend."

"Ah... then why-" Greyson was cut off by the bell, signaling the start of class.

"Let's hurry to the class!" Greyson exclaimed as he grabbed Mikan by her wrist and started to pull her to the classroom.

"Wa-wait! Don't we have to wear uniform?" Mikan asked. That sentence made Greyson stop dead in his track. He turned around and face Mikan.

"Uni...form? What's that? Ah! Nah! We don't wear uniform in America! Only gym shirt!" Greyson answered as he continue dragging Mikan.

"I'm really sorry Mr. Jimmy! We had a traffic jam from the airport!" Greyson apologised once they reach the class.

"Ah! Here's our new beautiful student from Japan! Come on, Mikan, introduce yourself. Greyson, go to your seat!" Mr. Jimmy said.

"Um... I'm Mikan Sakura from Japan!" Mikan introduced nervously. The class smiled at our innocent brunette.

"Ah~ Mikan, your partner and seatmate will be Greyson! You know him right?" Mr. Jimmy asked.

"Yes, Mr. Jimmy!" Mikan replied as she went towards Greyson. Mr. Jimmy smiled and annouced that it would be a free period.

"Sakura-" Greyson was cut off.

"Call me by my first name! It's alright you know? Can I call you by your first name too?" Mikan asked.

"Ah... Sure! Mikan, let me be your tour guide and show you around!"

"Thank you so much!"

"It's nothing! Let's go!"

They went to a lot of places. From the boys and girls dorm to the other levels block, washrooms, classrooms to the canteen. And soon, it was already tea time. Mikan's stomach grumbled loudly. Greyson just laughed at how amusing the brunette can be. There were a lot of cakes for choices on tea time. Mikan was screaming in joy and trying out every single piece of them, screaming 'delicious' all the time. Her classmates saw her and they could not help it but to think that out little brunette is cute and all wanted to be her friend! Mikan took a lot of cakes. Chocolate cakes, blueberry, strawberry, and the list go on. Once she is seated, almost all of her new classmates surrounded her.

"Hey! Sakura, you're from Japan? How awesome! Can I be your friend?"

"Sakura! My name is Alex! Can I be your friend?"

"Sakura! Nice to meet you! Can we be friends?" Many rushed forward to ask Mikan for permission to be friends. Since it was the first time getting surrounded by so many people, Mikan was a little terrified.

"Hey! You all are scaring her!" Greyson informed their classmates when he noticed Mikan's fear.

"Sorry!" They all apologised as they back away from Mikan. Their reaction brought a smile onto Mikan's face.

"Yes! Let's all be friends!" Mikan 'annouced' as she smiled a teeth showing smile. It was the first time in her life she got accepted without trying. And she could not help but to admit, it feels good. No, awesome is the word. Every single Americans smiled and nodded. There, Mikan was sure that she could change. With the help of her new friends, surely she could be stronger.

The raven was under his sakura tree. The image of Mikan came flashing back into his mind. Her smile, her angry faces, her laugh, her tears, her weird faces, her hurt expressions, they are all coming back to him. He punched the sakura tree in frustration. 'What had I been doing...?' He asked himself. Not far away from him, a silver haired girl stood by, watching him in silence. As soon as she saw him punching the tree, she rushed to his side.

"What are you doing, Nat!? You will hurt yourself!" Nobara exclaimed. Natsume, desperate, hugged her like there was no tomorrow.

"What-" Nobara was cut off by Natsume.

"Let's stay like this for a while. Please, Nobara." Natsume pleaded. It was the tone that made Nobara did it. She first nodded, then took a deep breathe.

"Nat, while we stay like this, I have something that I needed to tell you. And that's why I came here."

"Okay... What was it?"

"I... That time what you saw was not real. That guy forced a kiss on me. I didn't told you about him, knowing that you are a possesive man. He was my stalker. He stalk me everywhere he can. Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, in school. Anywhere. That day, he saw that I was alone and he... took the chances to force a kiss on me..." Nobara could not continue anymore. Tears were falling and she could not stop it. Natsume's eyes widened with surprise, anger towards himself, sudden realization.

"Then... Why didn't you tell me? Why? On the day we broke up, why did you just remain silent?"

"You never gave me a chance to explain, Natsume!"

They both fell silent. Natsume was guilty. The misunderstanding over these years, it was finally cleared. Natsume looked at Nobara's lips. He closed his eyes and leaned forward. Nobara, glad that Natsume is finally going back to her, closed her eyes too. And they kissed. A long kiss. Tongue battles, lips nibbling, they tried out everything. The feel was all going back to them. After a few minutes, they finally broke away, panting.

"Nobara... Will you be mine?" Natsume asked, full of hopes. The smile on Nobara's face widened.

"Gladly."

But they seemed to forget something. Mikan and Natsume did not break up. They never did. So what was Natsume doing? Two timing.
