Nickname by Koharu Mitsuki

Disclaimer: Waff! After five Gakuen Alice stories, I've realized that I haven't disclaimed all of them! Wai! Now, that's unlike me! Anyways, for Cakes, Do You RAIN Me?, Fancy Dress, Sleep, Blackmailed, and for Nickname, I'd like to announce my disclaimer: Thou does not own Gakuen Alice. Thee is owned by Tachibana Higuchi. Thou praise thee!

She's always wondered why he never called her by her name. It was always 'polka-dot panties girl', 'little girl' or 'idiot.' Naturally, she hated it.

She growled at him, protesting, saying he should call her by her name.

But he never listens.

In the end, she gave up. There was no use talking him out of it.

And he continued calling her names.

Still, it irritated her.

'Hey polka-dot panties girl…'

'Idiot…'

'…come here, little girl…'

He spoke with such coolness and suave that it irked her.

But then, as time passed by, his name-calling became a habit.

He'd insult her, she ignores it.

And before she knew it, she became immune to him.

She didn't mind anymore.

Now, it actually sounded…nice.

It was as if they shared something together.

It was as if…as if it was her nickname.

Her special nickname.

And only he could call her by that.

A/N: There! A 150 word drabble! I hope it wasn't too lame. Actually, I'm having a writer's block these days. Somebody flamed me in 'Do You RAIN Me?', and I e-mailed her. Whoever that person is, is such a spitfire. Well, I was too occupied with him/her, that I didn't notice that my mind became completely blank with plots and stuff. I blame it on him/her. He/she actually called me a 'certified idiot', 'brainless freak', 'stupid' and all that. Christ, he/she doesn't even know me, let alone judge me and call me names. So, I'm sorry to say, but "The Seduction of Natsume" has very few chances of ever coming into writing. Don't blame me, blame 'Anti-ugly fanfictions.' He/she did a lot more damage to me that I thought. Reminder to every author out there: "Appreciate reviews. Ignore flames. Consider constructive criticisms." Follow those, and I'm certain you won't end up stressed and annoyed like me.

Take care, y'all, okay?

Love ya!

Koharu
