Crazy Love Affair
Chapter 10: Subtle Hints.
"Wow! You looked stunning...hmm...what's your name again?" the photographer asked Mikan. She blushed and replied timidly, "My name is Mikan Sakura." The photographer smiled at her and said, "Well then, Mikan-chan on standby please." Then he turned around towards Natsume and Hotaru.
"Alright, Hotaru-chan you grab Natsume-kun's tie and bring his face closer to you. Both of you had to pretend you're about to kiss," the photographer instructed. Hotaru nodded and grabbed Natsume's tie. She brought his face closer than expected and their lips were almost brushing with each other.
Koko whistled loudly, quite impressed with Hotaru's boldness. Monchu put his hands on Youchi's eyes and hollered, "Kids shouldn't see this." Hayate blushed and looked away. Sumire scowled. Mikan gagged at the couple. The photographer smiled and took many pictures, "Doing great Hotaru-chan. Good job!"
"Natsume, you have to go and hug Hotaru-chan from behind. Then nuzzle her neck. Hotaru-chan just close your eyes and pretend to enjoy it," the photographer said. Natsume and Hotaru obeyed him and did what he said.
"What a very daring pose!" Koko commented. Sumire hit Koko in the head. "Ouch! What was that for?" he groaned. Sumire glared at him and said, "Keep your comments to yourself." Monchu dragged Youichi out of the room and said, "I'll take Youchi outside for fresh air." Hayate went after them and uttered, "I'm coming too. I'm having a heart attack there." And Mikan turned red and looked away. The photographed showered them with praises again.
"Natsume-kun and Hotaru-chan, both of you should face one another. Then Hotaru-chan put your arms around Natsume-kun's neck. And Natsume-kun should placed his arms around Hotaru-chan's waist," the photographer said. Then he took pictures of them again.
"Hotaru-chan, go and switch with Mikan-chan please," he said. Hotaru walked away from Natsume and went towards Mikan, murmuring, "It's your turn now." Mikan nodded and went towards Natsume. "Hotaru-chan, you're on standby. Stylist and make-up artists, retouch please."
"Mikan-chan, please sit down. Natsume-kun, you have to put your head on Mikan-chan's lap and close your eyes. Then Mikan-chan, hold Natsume-kun's hair and play with it gently. You have to smile lovingly at him," the photographer said. Both of them obeyed him. Mikan gently put her hands on Natsume's hair and patted it gently. She flushed as she felt its softness under her hands.
The photographer shouted, "Bravo! What a cute scene!" Koko nodded his head approvingly and looked at Sumire. "Should we do that sometimes, darling?" Koko asked Sumire, smirking. She grimaced and stepped on Koko's foot. He hopped up and down, groaning.
"Next Natsume-kun, carry Mikan-chan in your arms. Both of you should pretend that you're about to kiss," the photographer uttered. Mikan's eyes widened and hollered, "What?" Natsume shook his head and said, "I guess pretending to kiss would be difficult for a complete amateur." Mikan frowned and put her hands on her hips, looking at Natsume with a stern look.
"You don't know anything about me so stop judging me," she muttered. Natsume stared at her, gulping and worried that he offended her. "I didn't mean to offend you," Natsume told her. She looked away while saying, "You're clearly underestimating me." Natsume put his hands on her shoulders and turned her to look at him. "Stop sulking and look at me, Sakura-san," he said.
Mikan momentarily stopped and looked at Natsume's dazzling eyes. Then her trail of thoughts went to a certain boy with thick eyeglasses and messy raven hair, not to mention a pair of crimson eyes just like the boy in front of her right now. Her face turned redder and murmured, "Natsu-kun."
Natsume was stunned. After a few seconds, he managed to recover from his surprise and looked away from the confused brunette. "Who's Natsu-kun?" he asked, suddenly feeling quite strange talking about his other self. Mikan shook her thoughts away and replied, "Just a friend of mine."
"Well, guys! Hurry up and do what I said," the photographer shouted. Natsume and Mikan finally obeyed. That scene ended up with Mikan almost fainting in Natsume's arms. But fortunately it didn't happen.
"Next Natsume-kun, stand behind Mikan-chan. Your right hand should hold her waist and the other should hold her hands and raise it a little, like you're both flying," the photographer said. They obeyed and the photographer showered them with praises.
"Alright, Hotaru-chan should join you now," he gestured at Hotaru and made her came up on the center. "The scene now was about two girls fighting for one guy," the photographer said. He smirked.
"Natsume, please sit down. Mikan-chan, stand beside Natsume and looked away from him. Hotaru-chan, hug Natsume from behind. Natsume, hold Mikan-chan's hand and look at her back longingly," the photographer instructed. They did what he said and he gave thumbs up. "This scene is epic! Good job guys!" he shouted.
"Natsume, stand up now. Hotaru-chan and Natsume, hug each other. Mikan-chan stand on the sidelines and watch them sadly," the photographer said. That scene made Sumire grumbled and Koko held her in the waist. "All of those poses made me want to hug you," he muttered in her ears. Sumire pinched his arms and he groaned.
"Alright, that concludes our photo shoot for today. Good job guys!" the photographer announced. Natsume quickly went to the room of the stylist to get his own clothes. Mikan and Hotaru followed him.

"Good job Natsume-kun!" the stylist said and added, "But your look would be much better with the eyeglasses." The stylist pushed the eyeglasses in his eyes and made him face the mirror. He sighed and looked down. Then he heard something dropped on the floor. He quickly looked up and saw Mikan, staring at him with a surprise look on her face. She gasped and backed on the door, suddenly feeling weak.
"Sakura-san," he whispered. "You looked like Natsu-kun," she said. Natsume froze. He forgot that he's wearing the eye glasses right now. "Hey, who's on the damn door?" Hotaru's voice rang in the outside the room. Mikan quickly opened it up and muttered sorry before running away. "Hey! You're still wearing the wedding gown!" Hotaru shouted.
Mikan ran away from the room, from the building, from everything. She ignored anyone's pleas or questions. For now, she wanted to be alone...away from everyone, away from Natsume Hyuuga—or is he Natsu Tachibana? With that, Mikan didn't know.
