Disclaimer: No, I DO NOT own Gakuen Alice… but imagination still works doesn't it?

Anime-rawks was right indeed! Mikan does have a loved one! (Who doesn't?) Haha… Mikan sure is a predictable idiot… ☺

Chapter "dos"

"Have I been in love?" Mikan asked herself the same question over and over again.

The whole class has been waiting for her response for quite a while now…

"Mikan, being in love doesn't always mean you've found your soul mate. It just means you have this special person or persons whom you really care for. Now, I ask you, Who ARE your loved ones?" Mr. Narumi smiled. He sure saved Mikan right there.

"YOU" she cheerfully blurted out. "And Hotaru, and Grandpa, and Ruka, and Mr. Teddy, and Natsume too, and blah, blah, blah" she added, enumerating the whole class.

"Whoa… You have plenty of loved ones eh?" Mr. Narumi doesn't look surprised at all. (He must've expected this anyway)

"What? I don't believe this! She can't possibly love everyone in class! Especially MY Natsume" Sumire whispered to herself. "She was definitely LYING when she announced that she also loved me… or… maybe not" she continued, her rock-solid heart is starting to get super-soft now. Who couldn't resist an angelic creature such as Mikan? (OMG… I think I'm gonna throw up)

"What about you, Sumire?" Mr. Narumi turned to her. "Do you have a special someone that you like to share with the class?" he continued his question-and-answer portion.

"Of course I do!" Sumire announced with a big smile "Infact, he's right there–" she faced backwards and pointed at Natsume.

but instead of the gorgeous-looking and heart-melting heartthrob, she only saw an empty chair and an annoying fly circling around her head.

"He probably left after hearing the idiot's long and boring speech" Hotaru said calmly.

"Hotaru you're so mean!" Mikan said to Hotaru. It still hurts even though she's used to it.

"It's okay... At least Sumire won't have to blab about Natsume anymore. It's obvious that she's going gaga over him" Hotaru mumbled (looking on the bright side eh?)

"Oh Hotaru you're such an optimist!" Mikan tried to hug her but she failed to do so. (With the baka gun around? Puh-lease, she couldn't lay a single finger on Hotaru)

BAKA-BAKA-BAKA

"Idiot" Hotaru moved to the other chair, leaving Mikan lying "bruised" on the ground, good thing Mr. Narumi and Yuu came to help (I pity her)

"Its so hard having lots of loved ones! I can't even finish a single letter to Hotaru!" Mikan freaked out (being the freak she is)

"Then don't" Sumire said, appearing out of nowhere with her blabby friends, and actually stealing the scene.

"What do you mean?" Mikan asked

"What I mean is that... You don't have to write to all your loved ones. Valentines Day is for your special someone a.k.a. crush, duh" Sumire is yet again, overpowered by her know-it-all self

"So I only have to write on my crush?" Mikan started to get half of it

"Uh-huh... You do have a crush, right?" Sumire raised a brow.

"Uhhh... How'd you know you're crushing on someone anyway?" Mikan curiously asked.

"Ack! You're hopeless!" Sumire's bratty friend said a bit loud (what's her name again?)

"I'm sorry..." Mikan bit her lower lip.

"Don't be. You'd know how to identify you're crush by means of blushing" Sumire explained. she's a good teacher alright.

"Blushing?" Mikan asked

"Yup. If you blush whenever a certain guy is near you, then he is your crush! You turn red like a tomato and your heart beats faster than usual. Get it?" Sumire bragged.

"Okay" Mikan nodded

"Who's you're crush anyway?" Sumire's friend curiously asked (ahhh! what is her name?)

"I don't know exactly..." Mikan murmured

"What? You've never been in love?" Sumire's eyes bulged.

"Uhmm..." Mikan tried to reply.

"My gosh! Now I know the reason why you are so abnormal. at least I have MY Natsume" Sumire gasped

"Hey I'm only 10!" Mikan complained. (Wait... what about they became 15? 10's too young... but... whatever...ha-ha)

"age doesn't matter" Sumire folded her arms.

"I see..." Mikan tried to understand the rotation of Sumire's brain but she can't (that's because she's dumb)

There was a long pause... Mikan could've sworn she had blushed at the time they were celebrating the alice festival (Gakuen Alice episode 20) but she doesn't know why... It wasn't because of the fact that Natsume called her on her first name for the first time, right?

"What if..." Sumire broke the silence (she always does) "We play a game called 'Who's in love with who?' We determine other people's crushes by making them blush in front of their crush! Of course we players are totally exempted." she announced. "Now I'll know who Natsume really likes! Nyahaha! (Evil laugh)"

"Okay!" Mikan agreed without having second thoughts. An idiot girl like her needs some brain cells.

This reckless girl is completely unaware of the plans cupid has installed for her...♥

END OF CHAPTER 2

♀I'm sorry I always pick on Mikan and pointing out how stupid she is—

well she really is! Hahaha

But her ditzy personality somehow makes her unique right?

with that goofy smile on her face...

But she's such a dullard!

Hello... earth to Mikan...

of course you blushed because you're in love with Natsume! Grrrrr...

"Idiot" ☻
