Chapter XII:
Readers' Note: I'm sorry for not updating sooner. I didn't know what I would write next. Well, I still don't. But I hope this will make you happy! Chapter 12! I'll be mixing up what happened in the manga and my imagination. So sorry for being lazy!
Ah! Valentines is almost here! The wonders of love start and are everywhere. Everybody couldn't wait and couldn't help but talk about them, well, Except for Mikan. She doesn't understand what love really is.
Mikan: hey, Hotaru. What's up with everybody? They're all talking about love and their crushes. Are they sick?
Hotaru: you idiot. It's almost time for Valentines Day. Of course they can't help it.
Mikan: why?
Hotaru: it's because of VALENTINES DAY… do I have to repeat it?!
Mikan: so… what do you do in Valentines Day?? What's it all about?
Hotaru: why are you such an idiot??
Mikan: well, excuse me for being an idiot! It's not my fault that I don't know about it!
Hotaru: (sigh) valentines day is all about love. It's a special celebration for two people, whether a couple or not spend time together and give chocolates to the one they are attracted to. You also give chocolates to those you have a crush on.
Mikan: really?? So, will you give anyone chocolates?
Hotaru: nope.
Mikan: I don't get it. What does crush mean?
Hotaru: they are the people you admire. Before you ask something else, leave me be, idiot!
Mikan: okay! See you later, Hotaru!
Mikan left Hotaru and walked for a while. She saw Anna and Nonoko passing by.
Mikan: hey! What's up, you two?
Anna: oh, hey Mikan!
Nonoko: we're going to central town to buy some chocolates. You wanna come?
Mikan: sure!
And so thy rode the bus to central town. While on their way there, they talked about the occasions that may occur on Valentines Day.
Anna: hey, have you heard that there's gonna be a dance festival tomorrow night?
Nonoko: yeah! It's said that when you dance with a partner, you're relation may turn into destiny! And I can't wait to ask someone to go with me!
Mikan: really? Interesting! So do you guys have someone in your minds??
Anna: maybe I'll ask someone in our class or Mr. Misaki!
Nonoko: I might ask someone from our class too! What about you Mikan?
Mikan: oh, geez. I think I'll go alone and not dance.
Nonoko: what? I know, last year, you and ruka went for the last dance right? Why not ask him?
Mikan: ah… good idea! But what if he turned me down?
Anna: he'll never do that! He never danced with anyone except you.
Mikan: really?! (blush) I never knew…
Nonoko: and I heard last time that you danced with natsume as well!
Anna: yeah, and that some clumsy dance couple accidentally bumped into you and…
Nonoko&Anna: you two kissed!!
Mikan: (whole face turns red) ack!! I-it's not true!! We didn't kiss!!
Natsume: what are blabbing about now, polka…?
Mikan: it's not true! (Grabs natsume's collar) we didn't kiss!!
Natsume: HN… you're not just a lousy dancer back then, you were lousy kisser too.
Ruka: (jealous) don't be like that natsume. So Mikan, why are you here?
Mikan: (spaced out)….
Anna: we're here to buy chocolates!
Nonoko: that's right, so we won't get sold out tomorrow!
Ruka: so who are you guys going to give them?
Anna: we don't know yet… ask Mikan, she might have someone in line…
Natsume wondered too. So he just listened.
Mikan: me?? Well… I don't know yet… what about you?
Ruka: (embarrassed) ahh…uhmm… just a certain someone…
Mikan: what about you natsume? You seem pretty indifferent today…
Natsume: I'm not going to give anyone anything.
Mikan: so who'll be your dance partner tomorrow?
Ruka: (feels more embarrassed) c-can we be dance partners? Not as a couple or anything…
Mikan: sure, ruka!
Anna: wow, Mikan! You're pretty lucky! We still haven't got any dance partner
Nonoko: yeah! You're lucky! The boys come to you while we have to come to them!
Mikan: natsume, you're pretty quiet today… what's wrong?
Natsume: what do you mean, "quiet"…
Mikan: well, you're not making fun of me that much…kind of weird…
Ruka: are you not feeling well?
Natsume: … let's go ruka…
Ruka: oh… okay natsume… see you around Mikan…
To be continued….
