Author's Notes: Hey! Hey! Hey! Hello everyone! Sorry for the late update! Really Sorry… I've been with my enemy called "Writer's Block" causing me to not write…

The Central Town… Full of goods… Full of people… it's like a shopping district… only better… you'll find all the great stuff in here…

Flashback

"Hey Ruka… You want to go to Central town?" Natsume asked

"Yeah… Sure… but why?" Ruka answered

"…" he didn't reply

End of flashback

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

"Natsume! Ruka-kun!" Mikan's cheerful voice rang

Natsume didn't expect the others to tag along… Especially that girl… the girl he always thought about…

"Why's she here?" Natsume asked Ruka, Pointing at the girl who was with Yuu and Hotaru…

"I dunno… maybe they plan a trip for themselves…" he replied

"Well… Anyway, Let's go…" Natsume said

"Hey Wait! Natsume! Ruka!" Mikan called. The two turned to look

"Maybe we could go together…" She smiled

Ruka turned to look at Natsume…

"Whatever… Polka dot panties girl…" Natsume said and walked away while Ruka walking behind him…

"Are you sure about this, Natsume?" he asked

"…" he said

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

'I wonder what's bothering Natsume… he seemed distant a moment ago…' she thought

'Is he mad at me? I guess so…'

"Is something bothering you, Mikan?" Yuu asked

"No, It's nothing…" she smiled

"Anyway, I have to buy a new toothbrush… mine's getting old, you see…" she added

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

"Are they gone?" Natsume asked

"Yeah… guess they are…" Ruka replied "What was it you wanted to ask about?"

"Well… it's about Mikan…"

"What is it?"

"I want you to…"

"To what?"

"To help me…"

"In what? You don't mean…"

"Yes, I want you to help me… with Mikan… you see I… I like…"

"You like her… and yes… I'll help you…"

"Really…"

"Yes… I have a plan for you to tell her…"

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
