Here's the beginning of the trilling part…. Or I tried to make it trilling…..
Disclaimer: I don't own Gakuen Alice……
Days seem to pass very fast during their stay in the village. As they stayed longer at the village, both Natsume and Ruka began to like the village more. Everyday seems to be an exciting day for them as Mikan and Hotaru showed them around the village, teaching them things that they do not know.
However, Natsume and Ruka decided to leave the girls alone for their own talks. They strolled towards the Sakura tree for a rest.
"Ne, Natsume, this village is very peaceful and quite secluded." Ruka said as he looked at the village. "The villagers here are also very warming, too." He then continued, looking at Natsume.
Natsume nodded in agreement, 'This place is very quiet and peaceful, unlike the Gakuen. This place is really nice place to settle down and Ruka will definitely love this place, since his wish is to settle down in a place like this.' He thought as he looked at Ruka.
'This place really is very amazing. The longer I stayed here, the more difficult I will find myself to leave this place.' He then said mentally, looking at the sky. 'But, strangely, I dreamt a lot of the dream while staying here. Furthermore, the images of the dream are getting clearer and clearer and, so is the linkage of the places. The places the couple has went, the incidents that happened around them in my dream is getting more and more closer to those describe in the book.' He then thought.
As he was preoccupied by his thoughts, he did not pay much attention to Ruka's questions. After a few questions, Ruka get no answer from Natsume and called him.
"Natsume? Natsume?" he then called out.
Natsume then realized that he has stared into space, "Nani, Ruka?" he asked.
"Natsume, daijoubu desu ka?" Ruka asked.
Natsume shook, "I'm just thinking about some strange incident." He replied.
"Need help?" Ruka offered.
"It's ok, Ruka. I can handle on my own." Natsume refuses his offer.
However, when he saw Ruka's disappointment, he immediately added, "But I'll get you to help if I cannot handle it."
Upon hearing it, Ruka cheered up a bit. He has noticed that Natsume's change when he reached the village.
'Natsume looks more refreshed when staying here compared to when he is at the Gakuen.' Ruka said mentally.
"Ne, Natsume. Did you realize something?" Ruka asked and Natsume looked at him. "You looked more refresh here and there is more conversation than usual as well." Ruka explained.
Natsume was a bit shocked when he heard that and realized that it is true. He has more interactions with Mikan and Ji-chan as they often get him to interact with them. Furthermore, he feels very relax staying and talking with Ji-chan and Mikan. He has treated Ji-chan like his own Ji-chan as Ji-chan has treated him like his own grandson too.
'Man, I never thought that baka will have such influence on me.' Natsume thought as he looked at Ruka. 'Ruka has also changed a bit.' He then thought.
"Well, you also looked quite refresh to me." Natsume said.
Ruka immediately denied, "Where got?"
Natsume then smiled, "I also noticed that your face turn red when you saw Imai. Did anything happen to the two of you?" he asked.
"Where have? My face is always like that, Natsume." Ruka denied.
Both of them looked at each other for a few seconds before they laughed.
"It has been a long time since we talked like that, Natsume-kun." Ruka said.
Natsume agreed, "Ya… it seems like a lot of things has happened around us, yet nothing much seem to have changed."
"That's right. We both have changed a bit since then." Ruka then added.
They then continue chatting for some time before heading back to Mikan's house. As they walked to Mikan's house, Ruka then talked about his dream of staying in a place like this village with him.
"Nobody knows what's in store for the future." Natsume replied.
Ruka just ignored him and continue talking about his dream. All of a sudden, Natsume felt a cold down his spine and he sort of saw a vision of Mikan crying.
"Ruka, let's hurry back." Natsume said as he ran first.
Ruka then ran behind him, "What's going on, Natsume?" he asked.
Natsume did not answer him, instead, he keep whispering, "Please don't let anything happened to Mikan.
They were about to reach the house when they heard screaming from inside the room. They then looked at each other and immediately dashed in.
