Mikan stared at the picture dumbstruck and said, "But that's not me. I'm not royalty but I want to be. You know, I think every girl would wish she was a princess."
Natsume observed her. After doing so he stood up and said, "I have to go somewhere. Don't wait for me." He went to he's room, leaving the picture behind, and muttered, "You can't always run, Mikan."

Mikan picked up the photo and stared at it. She sat down and started to think.

Natsume drove to the castle. He was due for a meeting with an important person. He don't know who the person is because he's parents won't tell him on the phone. They said he have to meet her instead. So now, he was driving down to the castle to meet this important person.
When he arrived in the castle, he noticed that the place was almost deserted. He began to wonder this castle never looked so deserted. He walked up the stairs into the entrance hall. The entrance hall seemed to be deserted too. He walked to the sofa to drop his bag when a figure appeared on top of the stairs.
"Hello onii-chan isn't it nice to see you again?" the figure said in her sweet voice. Natsume looked up and smiled.
"Hey, come here. I missed you," Natsume said as he embraced the person in a big hug.
"S-s-stop i-it," the person tried to say while trying to break from the hug. Natsume chuckled and let go of his hug.
"You should be happy you know. Everyone wants to be hugged by me," Natsume said, sitting on the couch.
"Yeah, that would be it but I'm not like everyone. I don't want to be hugged by you and your germs. Someday, you will find someone who won't like to be hugged by you." The person replied, sitting opposite Natsume.
"Yeah right, Aoi. You like to be hugged by me." Natsume smirked and received a pillow thrown to his face.
"Shut up." Aoi rolled her eyes and flipped her phone open. "Mom and Dad wants to see you. They're in the library. I have to meet someone."
"Let me guess. Youichi?" Natsume raised an eyebrow and saw Aoi blush a bit. "You're so predictable."
He stood up and took his things before proceeding to the library. Aoi tried to throw a pillow at his head but missed. She picked up the pillow from the floor and went out to meet with Youichi.

Mikan came out of the bathroom wrapped in her pink towel and was drying her hair when her phone rang.
RING! RING! RING!
Mikan flipped her phone open.

*Call*
Hello?
Good morning honey.
MOM!
You seem surprised. Is everything alright?
Yes, mom. Everything is alright. Why did you call?
Oh, I want to inform you that we are going to be there in two days. Bye, honey. Need to arrange some more matters. Love you. Oh, and don't tell Youichi. We want to surprise him!
Love you too, mom.
*Call Ends*

Mikan flopped down the bed and stared at the ceiling. No, this can't be happening. All her plans are backfiring on her. Her parents were supposed to her two weeks after she arrived, right? She looked at the calendar on her desk and gasp. It was way past two weeks and she did not even notice it. What happened in the past two weeks? Why had she not notice the days passing by. Then it struck her. One word. One person to be exact.
NATSUME
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Natsume exited the library. His parents and he were just finished talking about important matters. It was going well until - there's always a break - they've asked him about the wedding. They were so happy it hurts to see their faces fall in to worried looks, the moment he tells them what the problem about the 'wedding' was. So, he just said that things weren't final yet and he still needs to clear more things.
He entered his room, scratching his hair, making it dishevelled. He sat down on his sofa and looked at a picture of two kids, a girl and a boy, in a tight embrace with a black teddy bear between them. He sighed and traced a finger on the girl's form. He stood up and walked towards the bed and flopped down. Staring at the ceiling, he started to fall asleep.
Little did he know that the wedding had already been planned.
