A/n) To Joden YA I'LL BE YOUR FRIEND! Try and find my real name in this paragraph it's scrambled. Can you believe it at first Mikan was on the verge of being found out then she wasn't and now she is AGAIN what happens next? I wonder...

recap: "No you can't go in there cause the Shiro Neko is in there and she doesn't want any visitors." he tried to stop again but failed. "Koko was right you do have overly imaginative dreams." she said as she walked in. Natsume also walked in and found no one else in there. "See no one. Now go away so I can take my shower." Natsume slightly sighed and closed the door behind him. Mikan also sighed before she passed out on the floor. Then Natsume came back in "Oh yeah Polka I forgot to mention...POLKA!" As he ran to her side once again.

-I am-

Natsume stared at her face she as she was breathing heavily. Then he noticed her hair was pulled back enough to see the earrings she was wearing.'Those earrings she's wearing they look like the ones that Shiro Neko got the day we went to Central Town. Wait what did she get... she got two ring earrings with a blue stone on each end on one ear and a double ringlet silver earring with a phoenix on the other.' he put her on her bed to get a closer look and sure enough that is what she had.

Natsume covered his eyes to hide the surprise. 'Why didn't she tell me? Did she not trust me enough? Or is it because she hated me enough not to tell me?' he asked himself.

Then Hotaru came in. "Did she pass out again?" Hotaru asked as she walked in the room. "She really needs to stop going on missions one of these days she probably won't come back or if she does she'll be dead." She said with a sad voice.

"Why didn't she tell me about it? After all she's supposed to be training me to go on missions with her." Natsume asked her.

"The same reason she didn't tell me about it. Also she probably won't train you or even let you go on a small mission." Hoatru said rolling her eyes at the thought.

"Why?" he asked looking up at her.

Hotaru looked over at the sleeping Mikan and sighed "She...she doesn't want anyone to worry about her...not even you Hyuuga."

"But she left me a letter saying 'if you do worry I hope it's to death'."

Hotaru gave a small laugh "She writes that to everyone friend or foe."

Natsume looked down again "Oh?" 'I'm a friend? Does she think of me that way?'

Hotaru sighed again. And as she did Mikan regained consciousness. Hotaru got up and started to leave. "I'll leave you two alone to talk." she said before she shut the door behind her. The room went silent...

"Soooo. I guess I lost the bet huh." she said with a smile. Natsume just gave her a glare. "Looks like I did Ha, Ha (cough, cough)"

"You said that if I figured out your true identity that you would do whatever I said for a day right?"

"Yeah. And?

"And the next time you have a mission I want you to stay and rest."

"(Sigh)I...can't." she said looking away

"And why not." he asked as he glared at her

"It would affect lives."

"How?"

"Persona said I have to do whatever he says otherwise he will hurt or kill my friends and anyone I care about. I can't sorry."

"Then I'll take the mission for you."

"You can't do that either."

"And why not?"

"One) you ain't trained and two) I won't let you."

"You aren't going on the next mission even if I have to tie you to your bedpost."

"Ha Ha Ha! (cough, cough)"

"Please don't laugh you're hurting yourself."

"I can't help it (cough, cough)." Mikan laughed in between each word as Mikan was laughing Natsume couldn't take it anymore. Natsume reached over and put his lips over Mikan's. Mikan immediately stopped laughing and her eyes widened, Natsume was leaned in closer. Mikan couldn't help it she loved his kisses every time he kissed her she would always feel... special. So she responded to his kiss.

'Ok maybe I do like her. And maybe just maybe she likes me too.' Natsume thought as the two broke for air."Mikan please stop you're hurting yourself." he said to her with concerned and sad eyes.

"Like I said Natsume I can't." she said as she put her hand on his cheek and caressed it. "I'm sorry." Natsume put his hand on top of hers.

"You need to get some rest you had a long day." he said as he got up and left the room.

Mikan sighed. "Natsume, what am I going to do?" she asked herself as she fell asleep.

Outside the door Natsume was saying the same thing. "Mikan, what am I going to do?"

-Later that day-

Mikan was sitting in her bed thinking. "I'm going to take a walk on the beach to clear my thoughts." she said to herself as she got up and left the room through the window.

A couple minutes later Natsume entered the room. "Mikan I thought you might want some supper so I bought you some..." but he was just talking to an empty room. He dropped the food and ran out of the room.

Meanwhile Mikan was sitting in front of the ocean watching the sunset and sighed. Then three guys came up surrounding her.

"Hey cutie wanna have some fun?" asked the first guy. Mikan just looked at him like he was nuts and turned back to the view of the ocean.

"Come on you I know you know you want to." said another as he grabbed her arm and lifted her off the ground. She smacked his hand away.

"Thanks for helping me up I was wondering how I was going to get up with my injured leg and all." the three guys just smirked 'an injured leg how much easier could this get.' the three turned to her ready to grab her and drag her off but she had different plans.

Before they could land a finger on her she punched the one in front of her. He landed on the ground knocked out. Then she slightly turned around and kicked the other one in where the sun does not shine if you catch my drift. The one next to her caught her on the arm. Mikan then took hold of it and twisted it behind his back.

"If I were you I'd take your friends and leave." she said twisting his arm to an almost breaking point.

As she was doing that she failed to notice the one that she kick recovered and was over her head holding a big piece of drifted wood. When she finally noticed him he hit her with the wood and knocked her out. Before everything went completely black she heard someone yell her name. "Na-Natsume?" was all she got to say before it was completely dark.
