True Love
Chapter Eleven: I Remembered Your Last Words
Mikan went to Nonoko's dorm and borrowed a change of clothes. Little did she know Natsume was following her to see if she was still mad at him from before what happened when they were younger. "I'm such an idiot!" Natsume thought to himself while hitting his forehead, "Why didn't I tell her that I loved her before?"
Mikan walked out of Nonoko's dorm and noticed that a raven haired teenager was hiding behind a pillar. "Natsume." Mikan said while looking behind the pillar.
The raven haired boy looked up at her and suddenly stood up. "What is Polka Dot?" Natsume asked.
"Get up." Mikan said.
Mikan extended her hand towards Natsume. Natsume just stared at Mikan's extended hand and then, looked up. "You're supposed to grab it, dummy." Mikan said while looking the other way.
Her face had a tint of red, but Natsume just turned red as well. He stood up himself and looked at Mikan. Natsume grabbed Mikan and towed her with him. "Where are you going to take me Natsume?" Mikan asked.
Natsume put a bandana out of his pocket and tied it around Mikan's eyes. "Don't say anything until I take off the bandana alright?" Natsume said.
Mikan nodded. "Thanks and I'll tell you why I didn't tell you the way I felt before…on the elevator." Natsume said.
Mikan nodded her head again.
In the elevator, Natsume did all the talking while Mikan just nodded. Little did they know that the teenagers that were following them were still following them around. While they were on the bus Mikan had to ask a question. "Natsume." Mikan said, "Can I ask you a question?"
"What?" Natsume asked.
"What's you favorite color?"
"Blue."
"Alright then, thank you." Mikan said with a smile.
"Hn." Was Natsume's reply.
The bus stopped and Mikan and Natsume got off the bus. Natsume guided Mikan towards the ice cream parlor while the teenagers still trailed behind them. Natsume untied the bandana and held Mikan's hand and drifted her towards the line. "Where are we Natsume?" Mikan asked.
"The ice cream parlor." Natsume said, "You've been having a craving for ice cream right?"
"Yeah…wait, how did you know?" Mikan asked.
"I got it from my resources." Natsume said, "Thanks Yome."
Once they got their ice cream, they head out of the ice cream parlor. When they were about to leave, Mikan asked Natsume a question. "Can you go on ahead?" Mikan asked, "I have to pick something up before I leave."
"Are you sure you don't want me to come with you?" Natsume asked.
"Yeah." Mikan said with a smile.
"Alright then, be careful alright."
"I will."
"See you later in my room." Natsume said.
They went their separate ways while Natsume went back to his room; Mikan went to the yarn shop. When she went in, she saw stacks and stacks of racks of yarn. Mikan found a soft ocean blue large yarn and bought four of them. Natsume's bed was square so, Mikan would make the blanket square shaped. She went up to the cashier and bought the yarn.
When Mikan came out of the yarn shop, the sun was setting. Mikan had to hurry back, and then she heard someone's footsteps echoing behind her. She started to walk faster so she could get away from the person. She thought she was safe when she bumped into someone. She looked at the man and she could smell alcohol from the man's breath. Mikan stepped backwards and then saw the man that was chasing her before was only a few yards away. "Where are you going sweetie?" The man in front of Mikan asked, "Papa's right in front of you."
"Baby, if you come here, you'll have a great time." The man behind her said.
Pictures started to pop up in Mikan's head.
That was the same night that Natsume rejected her. Two males that were about in their twenties or so saw me and thought they could try to rape me. I ran away, but they got me. I screamed, but it was too late, no one was there around me. The men slowly with pleasure removed my clothes-, but before Mikan could finish, snapped out of it and came back to reality. The auburn haired girl could have easily fought the two drunks off, but she was too scared like in the past. "No thank you." Mikan said with a smile, "I need to get back home."
"I wont take no for an answer." Said the man in front of her, "Now come to daddy."
"No!" Mikan screamed, "Stay away!"
"Playing hard to get?" The man behind her said, "I'll have to punish the knotty girl though."
"I don't want any trouble." Mikan said backing up to the cemented wall.
"It's not that bad." The man that was in front was now on the right side of Mikan said, "I'll kiss you to your hearts content."
"She said back off!" said another person in the distance.
A ring of fire circled around the two men and then, the guy who saved Mikan came out of the shadow. She remembered now. Natsume found me before the men took off all my clothes. I still had on my under shirt and my short shorts that I always wore under my skirt Natsume was furious and burned the two men to death and all that was left were ashes. I fainted, but I heard that last words he said before she fell unconscious. "I love you Mikan Sakura." Natsume said with a small smile, "I've always loved you since we were smaller. You might never see me again, but if you don't I won't mind because if you get caught in the danger I'm in, you'll get hurt."
I fell unconscious, but the next day of school, Natsume was no where in the school. There wasn't ever a trace that he lived or went to my school. He vanished in thin air.
