Chapter 9:

Confusion and His New Parents

Mikan was still hugging her knees, she doesn't want to look at the pervert Natsume. She still can't believe that they were kissing crazily. What happened to us? The last thing I knew was an 8-wheeler truck coming and now.. the next thing I knew was…. I was kissing with Natsume? Weird!

Natsume thought for a while and he thinks thought he already realized what happened, No…. please.. let it not be her memories… no……..

But then from afar, Hotaru noticed the couple, the brunette girl was crying and the raven-haired boy was staring at her with a blank expression. She sighed and approached them, he tapped Natsume's back, "What happened?"

Natsume almost jumped in surprise, but Mikan, well … uh…. She didn't hear a thing.

Natsume glared at Hotaru but his expression changed into a smirk, "What's up?"

"What happened?"

"Her memories…"

"It came back…" Said a voice from behind them, it was Kokoroyomi, but now, he didn't have that annoying smile in his face, he had a very serious expression.

"What's in her mind?" Asked Natsume who was brushing his hair with his fingers.

"She's…. wondering why you kissed with her a while ago…" Now looking down as he answered.

Hotaru wasn't surprised at this, she knew exactly that Natsume and Mikan liked kissing each other.

Mikan opened her eyes widely, she heard somebody.. rather some people talking, her head rose and she gasped as she saw Hotaru, Kokoroyomi and Natsume. "Wha- … What are you doing here?"

Hotaru and the others looked at Mikan, Natsume's mouth opened but didn't let out a single sound, Kokoroyomi head was titled down, Hotaru was staring directly at Mikan, "Mikan-chan.."

Mikan stood up and she approached her three friends, her body trembling as she got closer to Natsume.

Natsume rolled his eyes, "You don't have to shake like that polka-dots"

Mikan didn't pay attention to what Natsume said, memory of her and Natsume kissing was still occupying ¾ of her mind.

Kokoroyomi was still sad, he faced Mikan a little while but looked down again, what Mikan was thinking hit him hard, he doesn't know if he should tell Natsume about this or not.

Ruka was walking along the sidewalks when he saw Hotaru, yes, only Hotaru. He ran to her and hugged her tight from the back, "I was looking all over for you…"

Hotaru brought out her baka gun from her pocket and hit Ruka with it, "Yeah me too but get away from me right now, I'm facing a little dilemma.."

Ruka rubbed his forehead and noticed other figures standing around him, he gulped when he saw Kokoroyomi looking sad, Mikan with teary eyes and Natsume with a confused look. What happened here?

Kokoroyomi bent down and got close to his ear, "Mikan's memory… it came back…"

Ruka froze, he had an idea of what had happened, he quickly got up from the ground and went beside Natsume, "I… I'm really sorry for you…"

Unfortunately, Mikan heard it, and being the dense Mikan now, "SORRY FOR HIM? HE KISSED ME … NOT JUST ANY KISS! HE WAS ON TOP OF ME AND I WAS AT THE BOTTOM… AND .. YOU ARE SAYING YOU'RE SORRY FOR HIM RIGHT NOW?" Mikan shouted without realizing what she said.

Mikan's word struck Natsume's heart, he walked to Mikan, "DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT HAPPENED WHEN YOU HAD AMNESIA?"

Mikan blinked, "Amnesia? I had amnesia?"

All her friends fell to the ground anime style.

Ruka approached Mikan too, "Yeah.. you had amnesia so you don't have the right to shout at Natsume like that.. you don't even know what happened to you both before you gained all your memories back!"

Mikan blinked again, "How did I got that stupid amnesia?"

Hotaru sweatdropped, "Idiot.. when you hit the car!"

Mikan scratched her head, "Oh … yeah… I forgot about that eight-wheeler truck thingy…. " Then she looked back at Natsume, she blushed furiously, and Natsume noticed this, "You're blushing little girl.."

Youichi was passing by when he saw the small crowd, he hopped his way to them, "Hello everyone, mommy, daddy, auntie, uncle!"

Mikan tilted her head, "Mommy?"

Youichi raised a brow, "Yeah.. you … remembered right?"

Ruka kneeled down and tried to carry Youichi but he backed away, "No one can carry me except for my parents!"

Ruka sighed, "Ya know Youichi… your 'mom' got all her memories back now… she absolutely have no idea of what you're talking about…"

Mikan cupped her mouth, "You- you mean I married Natsume when I had amnesia? And.. and.. the worst thing is… I … I … adopted … YOUICHI?"

Everyone now sweat dropped, Kokoroyomi giggled a little, by reading Mikan's mind, he read that Mikan was totally cursing herself and freaking out, WE MARRIED?

Natsume snapped his fingers, "Stupid idiot… Youichi just called you his mommy because… uhmm.. he saw you blush!"

Youichi glared at his 'father' "IT'S THE OTHER WAY AROUND!"

Natsume glared back, but Youichi didn't see it, he tugged Mikan's skirt, "You're still going to be my mommy…"

Mikan bit her lip, "Demo-"

"You have no choice mommy.."

Mikan took Youichi's hands off her skirt and ran away, her palm cupping her whole face, her mind was so confused, she didn't know what to do.

Youichi fell to his knees and started to cry, "WHAAA! MOMMY HATES ME! MOMMY HATES ME! MOMMY HATES ME!"

Natsume tried all his best to calm Youichi down but he couldn't, he lost hope and left too.

Hotaru tapped Youichi's head, for the second time around, she actually felt sad for him, "Youichi… they just had a little misunderstanding that's all…"

Ruka joined Hotaru, he wiped Youichi's tears and used his handkerchief to wipe Youichi's sweat.

Youichi smiled, he held both Ruka and Hotaru's hand, "You're going to be my new mommy and daddy now…"

Hotaru gave Ruka a 'WHAT!' look and he also did the same.

Youichi put their hands together, "Next time I see you.. I want to see you both holding hands or I'll cry.."
