It's A Boy Girl Thing
Chapter 11 - Everything Is Not What It Seems
~.~
"What the hell are you thinking, BBL?"
Mikan shrugged. "Well if you can boss freshmen around, I don't see why I can't. Besides it's not like I'm acting out of character or anything."
Natsume made a weird face which was totally bizarre because Mikan would never make a face like that. It was so pre-Madonna wannabe. "I do not embarrass girls in public."
"You embarrass me in public all the time!" Mikan exclaimed.
"Well you're not a girl. You're BBL." He said as if it were the most obvious thing in the world.
Mikan wished she were wearing high heels so that she could just stomp on his foot and walk away. Of course that wouldn't be possible now, boys don't wear high heels, but then again if Natsume Hyuuga wore high heels, she'd bet that he'd start a new trend. If he wore anything strange, it'd be the latest fashion but if she wore anything strange, she'd be a freak.
How in the world could Natsume Hyuuga ever be wrong? Mikan smirked to herself, she knew exactly what to do.
"What are you smirking about?" he asked rather annoyed.
"I'm practicing at being you," she answered. "This is what you do when someone asks you a question, you smirk."
"No, I pown them." He replied.
"You don't pown me," she scoffed. "Wait why the hell are your arms around me anyway? This looks so weird! People passing by would totally think I'm into you or something."
He raised an eyebrow looking her up and down like she was a piece of ribbon on for sale. "You know you want me."
"You listen to Enrique Iglesias?" she asked quite startled. She never thought that he'd listen to anything other than rap and 3OH!3. Before Natsume could reply a bulge appeared in Mikan's pants. "Apparently you're the one who wants me."
They hear a gasp and look at each other in confusion; who else was here?
Mikan easily looked over Natsume's head (man, her body was short!) and spotted none other Kokoro Yome standing there with an expression that said 'OMFG'.
Natsume craned his neck and groaned and turned back to Mikan. "Since you're practicing being me, call him over here and scare the shit out of him. That usually makes him forget." He said in a low voice.
"What would I scare him with? Should I beat him up?"
Natsume sighed. "Nah, you can't hit him unless he actually does something."
"Since when do you have morals?" she chuckled, the sound seeming oddly angelic.
"Well I can't beat my friends up randomly."
"I'm still here!" Koko sing-songed as he walked towards them, "My oh my, what do we have over here? Mikan Sakura pining Natsume Hyuuga against the wall? I smell something fishy."
"It's probably the fish sticks you had for lunch." Mikan reminded him.
"Wait how did you know? You weren't even there!" Koko shook his head, "Man you're good Natsume! I bet that's why Sakura is jumping you right now."
Natsume grinned. "Well he has such a hot body. I mean did you look at his six-pack? "
Mikan had a conversation in her head with herself. If she insulted Natsume, to Koko she'd actually be insulting herself. If she went along with him, it made her seem like one of his pathetic fan girls. She was left with one option; to compliment Natsume.
"Well Koko," Mikan started smoothly, "I don't mind hot girls with big boobs jumping me. Would you?"
Koko looked extremely confused. "What about Luna?"
"Oh," Mikan replied with ease, "She's old news. I'm getting bored of her. I wish she'd do something new already. Geek is the newChic."
Natsume looked furious. "What are you doing?" he muttered under his breathe.
"I'm being a heartless bastard." She explained. "Don't you think I deserve an Oscar?"
"Here's what you deserve." He said stomping on her foot using her own boots. The nerve of the bastard! He had managed to use her own footwear against her!
"Ow!" she exclaimed jumping on her good foot and clutching her injured foot with her hand, "What the hell Hyuuga!"
"Have both of you lost it?" Koko exclaimed.
Mikan was confused. What did he mean by that? Then it dawned upon her that to him it would seem as if Natsume had called Mikan 'Hyuuga.' Shit. They were in trouble. It was a good thing that he wasn't Hotaru, she would've seen through their act in a second and that small slip would've confirmed her suspicions.
"This never happened." Natsume emphasized folding his arms across his chest.
"Riight. I'm gonna go.."
"And get Ruka? I don't think so." Natsume finished.
Koko grinned mischievously. "What are you going to do about it, Sakura?" Natsume wasn't doing anything, he was just standing there clutching his foot. So Koko figured he didn't have much opposition. What was bookworm Sakura gonna do about it?
"I'll tell Sumire that it was actually you, at that party last year." Natsume said smugly.
Koko's jaw dropped and his eyes darted towards Natsume. "You toldSakura about that? The girl hasn't been at a social event since 5th grade! I can't believe you told her!"
"Well she was there on Tuesday.." Mikan said rather hurt. She couldn't believe how many people cared about her not attending their stupid parties.
Koko was still glaring at Natsume. "That doesn't mean shit. Youswore."
"Well this,as in this little encounter you had just now, never happened. So technically you don't know that Sakura knows. So you shouldn't be mad. Instead you should just walk away and erase the last few minutes of your memory." Mikan concluded with a satisfied smirk (damn, she was getting good at this!) on her face.
Koko took a few seconds to process it. "Okay…that makes sense."
"Shoo." Natsume said waving his hand, "Leave us alone."
"All right, have fun with your affair." Koko said offhandedly walking away.
Natsume turned back to Mikan. "You're gonna fix this. NOW."
"I thought we just fixed it!"
"You know what I'm talking about and if you don't then I'll kill your body."
"Then you'd never get back to yours." Mikan reasoned. She had already thought about that issue.
"I don't need your nerd lectures right now. Just fix it or else…."
Before Mikan could say anything, Natsume headed off to go find his next class – or at least Mikan hoped. She hoped he wasn't going to play hooky. Since she was in his body, it'd be all right for her to do that though. No one expected Natsume Hyuuga to attend classes.
Besides who knew how many questions she'd answer out of habit, better not to take the chance.

Natsume was about to push open the bathroom door when he heard a squeak.
"What the hell Mikan? What are you doing?" he heard the blonde with the pink highlights say. What was her name again? Oh right, Anna. BBL's cousin.
"Going to the bathroom?"
"But it's the boysbathroom!" Anna cried, "You can't go in there!"
"Oh. Right." Natsume scratched his head. He was a bloody girl now. No more urinals for him.
"Aren't you supposed to be in class right now?" Anna asked and then her eyes widened, "You're wearing that top I gave you and the mini-skirt! You finally hit fashion puberty!" Anna hugged him.
Fashion puberty?
"Wait…why are you here again?"
Natsume scoffed. "Why are you here?" he retorted in a very un-Mikan like manner.
"To re-apply my lip-gloss like I always do after lunch. Is something wrong with you? Have you been doing all-nighters again?"
Why did everybody ask this girl that question? Did she really have insomnia?
"Umm…yeah. I was reading Divergent." He said. That was the first thing that had popped into his head.
Anna rolled her eyes and sighed. "I'll see you around." She disappeared into the girl's bathroom.
Natsume wasn't about to follow her. So where could he go? He guessed he could just walk around. Then an idea struck him, he could always go sit in his car.
He checked his pocket. The keys were in his pants, meaning Sakura had them. The downsides of having a miniskirt seem to stretch on..
Oh well. He could always use the spare key in his locker.

"But she wears short skirts, I wear T-shirts. She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers. Dreamin bout the day-"
"Are you singing Taylor Swift?"
Mikan had been sitting in Natsume's car listening to the radio when Luna opened the passenger door and seated her slutty ass down beside her.
"Apparently you don't know me very well." Mikan was done caring about Natsume's reputation. She liked Taylor Swift, so she could sure as hell sing her songs. Besides, it didn't matter what she did. She wasthe
Natsume Hyuuga, the world revolved around her.
"So what happened at lunch today? You totally like flipped out on me." Luna asked shaking her head back and forth.
Mikan couldn't help but laugh. The head nodding was so funny! Luna reminded her of Lana from Princess Diaries expect Lana was so much cooler than Luna. She became friends with her enemy. That wasn't going to happen to Mikan any time soon.
"Why are you laughing at me? Do I have spinach in my teeth?" Luna asked worried.
Mikan shook her head, still laughing. "No you're just so hilarious." She said her voice dripping with sarcasm.
Luna shrugged it off, "So if you don't want to come over to my house, then we might as well make use of time right now.." She leaned over, closing her eyes and licking her lips.
Mikan's eyes widened when she realized what was going to happen next. She was not Katy Perry; she was not about to kiss a girl and like it. This was the last straw.
"Get out."
"What?" Luna's eyes flew open. She couldn't believe what she just heard? Natsume always wanted to make-out! In fact, they barely did anything else.
"Get. Out."
"Do you mean, get in?"
What the hell was wrong with this girl?
"Get the fuck out of my car." Mikan hissed.
Luna slowly got up and went out. Mikan leaned over and closed the door.
"We're through." Mikan said through the open window.
She kicked the clutch onto drive and stamped on the accelerator. It was only when she was out of the parking lot that she realized she had basically just made Natsume Hyuuga single again.
Great. The fan girls were going to mob her.
~()~
Natsume could not believe what he just saw.
He had been on his way to the car when he spotted Luna sitting on a bench crying into her phone.
"He broke up with me!" He heard her say. "How can he break up with me? I mean we were so happy together! He even let me do shit with other boys! You don't get those kind of boyfriends anymore! They'll never let you have fun with other guys while in a relationship! What did I even do wrong?"
He never thought Sakura would have the guts to break up with his long term on-and-off girlfriend. It's not like they were exclusive, but still he needed someone to ward off the fan-girls (and to keep the bj's rolling in)
"Oh no she didn't..." Natsume muttered out loud. She was going to pay hell for this.
Luna noticed him, or rather Mikan, and yelled "This is all your fault you slut! Wakako saw you two together after lunch. You're such a backstabbing boyfriend stealer!" She then ran away, probably to the bathroom.
Even though he liked to call her a sluttish bookworm, Mikan Sakura wasn't an actual slut. If anything she was a prude. But Luna had just given him the most brilliant idea for payback. He wasn't supposed to girlfriend-less and thanks to her he was. Fight fire with fire…. That girl needed to learn a lesson and he knew just how to teach it to her.
Hello everyone. I know, our updates have been very slow lately. We're drowned in piles of work and it's very hard for us to find free time to actually write. What gives us inspiration to write is well, all of you guys -the readers. I get absolutely thrilled when I see a new person has favorited or/and put this story on their alert list. It's good to know that people actually read our work. However, what truly intrigues us was our lack of response for the last chapter. Sure we got like 20 new alerts or something but just half the number of reviews.
This might sound a little conceited, but please don't put this story on your favorites without reviewing first. It takes time to write so I'm pretty all of you can spend an extra minute of your life clicking on the 'review' button and typing in your thoughts/views about our story.
So here's the thing, we've decided we'll only continue the story if we get at least 50, yes you heard right, fifty reviews for this chapter. Come on now, it shouldn't be that hard!
See you 50 reviews later! That is, if we ever get it. If not, well then this would be our last chapter :(
