Recap of previous chapter……
Mikan chuckled and grinned.
"You did find a girlfriend because you're just the same, very disrespectful.
"You know minus the disrespectful part I'll consider that a compliment."
They walked off to who knows where.
End of Recap
Okay, they actually went back to Natsume's room. It was very peaceful but Mikan was just looking out the window.
"Hey." Natsume said.
"What?"
"Nothing."
"okay."
They looked into each other's eyes and as if Narsume's body acted on instinct, he hugged her(Not yet) it was a moment to cherish.
"Thank you"
"For what? I'm the one who should be thanking you for letting me stay."
"For helping me."
"That's what friends are for."
"Yeah, friends." He muttered.
"What?"
"Nothing."
Mikan went back to her room when Natsume's mom entered the room.
"Why are you here?"
"To pay you."
"Huh?"
"I know you're just dating Natsume for the money so just name the price."
"Excuse me?"
"oh please. Stop pretending. The only reason we hired the girl is because we know Natsume won't take any notice on her."
"But I love Natsume."
Realization struck her, she liked him. Natsume who was listening since he saw his mom enter the room, when he heard it he was speechless.
'but it's just pretend.' He reminded himself.
But to him it sounded so true, like she meant it but that was impossible, as far as he knows.
"Stop blabbing nonsense! He obviously paid you!"
"Prove it."
She reached for the intercom while Natsume was running towards his room.
He immediately answered it.
"Yes?"
"Natsume dear, Could you come over here to you girlfriend's room?"
"Yeah, sure."
Of course the moment Mikan told her she liked him, his heart began to pump faster.
He knew he was probably falling in love and usually it would be embarrassing but knowing it was Mikan he didn't care at all.
He walked towards the room, his face held up with pride and dignity.
The moment he entered his mom asked him,
"If you could continue our business w/o having to marry, would you break up w/ her?"
Mikan was scared of what he was going to say since she knew it would hurt her and there was absolutely no way he liked her, it was just impossible no matter how she tried to comprehend it, there was no way he'd actually like her, they were…..just friends. She stopped her eyes from watering and just waited for the painful answer. He looked at her sincerely that she almost couldn't believe it.
"It's up to her to decide, I can't take her will away from her."
"What?!"
"Stop thinking that everything and everyone is money. At first I did offer her money but she didn't accept it and she still played the part. I know she only thinks of me as a friend and I know we've only known each other for a short while but just now when she told you that she loved me though I know it's just pretend but for me it felt true and I realized, I love her."
He looked at Mikan and was expecting an angered one but what he saw amazed him. There were tears running down her face and a big smile was glued on it. How sweet!
"B-but Natsume…"
"Look if you want to disown me go ahead, see if I care. Say all you want along with your husband and team up against me."
He grabbed Mikan by the wrist and was about to go out when--
"Wait, I'm sorry. I just thought that you didn't like her and you're just forced to do this because of us. I know you're not into girls and I thought what difference would she make, I'm really sorry to you to, Mikan-chan. I'm sorry for hurting your feeling. Feel free to hate me all you want, I deserve it."
They looked at her in a disbelieving face.
"Your father will get mad but the heck with him. I tried to you up because I remember how it is to be married to someone you barely know and though I wasn't together with anyone I had been pregnant and that was you and that is the reason he despises you so it's fine when you call him my husband, I thought you already figured it out."
Both of them were speechless, the only thing they were able to say was,
"Oh."
It was an unbelievable moment but he just smiled at his mom then dragged no, took Mikan away and he led her to the garden and she saw all the flowers which were very sweet, she said inwardly.
He took her by the waist and kissed her. Fireworks played out of nowhere, she was smiling when they separated and she felt like she was the luckiest person in the world which for her, she was. She knew it was a start of a bumpy relationship knowing that tom. Was a Monday so it would be the start and many girls would envy her and she thought, the heck with them. She was glad she accepted this offer to be able to bond with him.
Natsume felt like his heart was going to explode with super happiness but of course what he did a while ago was too much alien Natsume for a lifetime but he didn't care. He had the perfect girlfriend and that's the only thing that matters for now.
