The Right One
A/N: I am sooo sorry for not updating this fic sooner. I've finished this chapter ages ago and I was going to post it but my computer crashed and all of my files got deleted. After that, I got so upset (and lazy) so I decided not to write it again anymore. (I was also having a "writer's block") Anyway, I've been really busy with school as well so yeah, there. Anyway, enough with my ramblings and on with the story! By the way, no flames please. Constructive criticism is accepted and reviews are highly appreciated.

Chapter 2:
'I feel bad for leaving him like that but I just can't deal with this right now.' Natsume thought as he walked back to his room, glaring at everyone he meets on his way.
'What's his problem?' one of his classmates thought after Natsume glared at him.
'Ugh. What the hell is wrong with me? I should be happy for him! He's my bestfriend!' he thought. He clenched his fists as he thought of a logical explanation as to why he was so upset.
"Maybe it's because you like her too?" a voice from behind him said.
"Huh? Oh, it's you Imai. What, you have Kokoroyomi's alice now?" Natsume said sarcastically.
"Invention # 0013, The Mind Reader. It enables you to read the minds of other people." Hotaru Imai, Mikan Sakura's bestfriend, said to an invisible audience.
Natsume sighed. Compared to always cheerful and generous Mikan, Hotaru was the opposite. Her face was always expressionless and she always talks with a monotonous voice. And she always charges people in exchange for her help. He, and other people as well, always wonder how those two became bestfriends when they were total opposites.
Snapping back to reality, Natsume remembered that the raven-haired girl was still there. "What do you want Imai?" he asked rudely.
"Nothing.I just finished my latest invention so I decided to try it out. Since you're the first person I saw, I decided to try it on you. And I saw what you were thinking about. So, maybe the reason why you're so upset is because you like her too." Hotaru told him.
"No, I don't like that idiot and never will. Now leave me alone." he said and continued to walk back to his room.
"Whatever you say Hyuuga" Hotaru said quietly as she too went back to her room.
He continued to walk to his room and he thought about what that girl said.
"Maybe the reason why you're so upset is because you like her too."
'Well, she is right. I do like that idiot. No matter how hard I deny it.' he thought to himself.
Natsume never thought that he would end up falling for that idiot whom he hated. He hated it that she smiles all the time even when she wasn't having a good day. He hated how she would make him do things that he normally wouldn't do like helping out with the class activities. He hated how she would risk her safety for the sake of others. And he hated the fact that she managed to make him fall in love with her without him knowing. But those are the things that he loved about her too.
He was so busy thinking about Mikan that he didn't exactly know where he was going and ended up bumping into her.
"I-itai. Oh, hi Natsume! Do you know where Ruka is? I just got out of detention and I can't find him anywhere! So, do you know where he is?" Mikan said after she stood up and brushed the dust from her skirt.
"How should I know? I'm not his keeper or anything you know." Natsume said in an annoyed voice.
"Oh, I just thought you know where he is since you're his bestfriend." she said. "Oh well. I'll look for him myself then. Ja ne Natsume!" she said before running off to find her "boyfriend".
"Tch."
