Hey lo!

Enjoy~

THAWED

"Natsume-kun!"

What you have just heard is the shrill voice of Luna screaming for Natsume's attention.

"Luna, leave us alone." Natsume spoke as he dodged Luna's supposed hug.

"But, Natsume-kun, I like you."

"Tch."

"I like you."

"Shut up."

"No. I love you, Natsume-kun!" She said as she tackled Natsume off guard.

"Luna, you're hurting my ears. And let go of my butler." Mikan said stepping out of her car.

"But, Mikan-chan he is just a butler to you right?"

"Yeah, so?"

"Let me borrow him for a day."

"Why?"

"I want to spend a day with him, that's why."

"I can't do that."

"Why?"

"Kaoru-san will know of course and we have a rule for a butler to have only one master."

"Is that the only reason?"

"Yes."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, I am. Leave me alone, will you?"

"But since you are also the headmistress of this school can't you bend the rules a little. I just want to spend at least a day with Natsume-kun."

"Luna." Mikan sighed.

"You make it sound as if you don't want Natsume-kun to be away from you."

"What?" Mikan said caught off-guard.

"If you really think of Natsume-kun as just a butler, you would allow him to be mine even just for a day."

Mikan defeated, sighed. "Fine. I accept your challenge. What are your terms?"

"I will have Natsume-kun for a day and if you try getting close to him or talking to him while he is mine, his day with me extends for one more day."

"Fine. When do you want this to start?"

"Today."

"Fine." Mikan faced Natsume. "Can you handle this witch? And please keep her away from me while you are her butler, okay?" Mikan turned to her heels and walked away.

She heard Luna tackle Natsume and she suddenly placed her hands on her chest.

'What is this I'm feeling? Why does my chest hurt?' She thought.

For the whole day, Luna manages to go in the sight of Mikan and she starts to flirt with Natsume. Natsume had done a good job at keeping Luna away from his real master but is failing in stopping her actions.

That afternoon, Mikan stayed at the student council room after classes.

"Mikan." Mikan jumped upon hearing the voice.

"Hotaru! You startled me.

"Why are you here alone?" Hotaru asked.

"And why was Natsume with Luna for the whole day?" Ruka asked.

"Luna challenged me."

"What?"

"She said that if I really just thought of Natsume as my butler, I could do something and lend Natsume to her."

"So you accepted her challenge."

"Yes."

"So why are you alone?"

"Ne~ Hotaru, why does my chest hurt? I feel like crying and I feel angry."

"Mikan, you are feeling something. That's what it is."

"An illness?" Ruka and Hotaru sweatdropped by this question.

"Mikan, even if your IQ is off the roof, you can be an idiot too."

"Why?"

"You don't have an illness."

"What do I have then?"

"Mikan-san, you are-"

"Shut up, Nogi. I want to be the one to say it."

"Yes, Hotaru-sama."

"That pain in your chest means you are jealous. And that feeling like you want to cry, you feel lonely."

"Why would I feel lonely?"

"For months already, Natsume has been with you and you somehow unconsciously got used to his presence that's why now you feel lonely."

"Do you feel that way, Hotaru?" Asked Ruka.

"If you still value your life, shut up." Hotaru said.

"Okay."

"But why am I angry?"

"Who are you angry at?"

"Natsume, no, Luna. Wait- I don't know."

"See? You are confused."

"..."

"You are angry at yourself."

"Why would I be?"

"If I answer everything for you. That would defeat his whole purpose."

"His?"

"Never mind that. What do you think? Whay are you angry at yourself."

"I'm not sure."

"Well, I hate to break it to you but Ice Queen, you have been thawed."

"Thawed?"

"Yes, by no other than Hyuuga Natsume." Ruka said cheerfully.

"Didn't I say you shut up." Hotaru hit Ruka with the accounts book she took from the table.

Mikan was frozen and thrown into a state of confusion and panic. She took her phone and called Natsume who was unfortunately still with Luna.

With Natsume...

He picked up his ringing phone not seeing the caller.

"Hello."

"Natsume?"

"Mikan?"

Luna heard this and she shrieked. "Mikan?"

"Natsume, I-"

"Give me that." Luna took the phone from Natsume.

"Mikan?"

"Luna?"

"You have broken our deal."

"What?"

"Tomorrow, Natsume is still mine." Luna said and dropped the call.

"Why did you do that, Luna?"

"She broke our deal. Now, Natsume-kun."

Natsume sighed. He should have looked at the caller so he could have seen and could have called her back.

'Mikan why did you do that?' Natsume thought as he tuned Luna out.

Hey another chappie done.

Hey, my replies to all of you.

StarElsie: yeah, she did. I am really having a hard time writing her in a scene since I am used to having her as the bitchy one.

Moonj2300: hahahaha. Yeah. You'll see soon enough.

YellowOrangeRed: yeah, i forbid any other pairing for Mikan or for Natsume.

Ayame-hime11d7: yeah. I finally did.
