VI – Why is Love so Complicated?
Disclaimer: I don't own Gakuen Alice. It belongs to someone else!
Mikan was in front of the computer, writing another chapter for her novel. At last, she thought of another idea… about her life.
"When he returned from work, the father was with a lady. When he was upstairs, his son was trying to play with the lady. But the lady refused and ignored the child. Then, the lady said; "One day, I'll be marrying your dad." But the child said no since he still believes that his mother was alive."
"Gee, it's really hard to be a writer. All these ideas make my head hurt." Mikan thought as she rubbed her head. "Wait. I might as well hang out with Anna and Nonoko."
OooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooO
Mikan invited her friends, Anna and Nonoko for a treat at a café.
"Oh c'mon Mikan! You should be happy that Hotaru will surprise you." Anna said to Mikan.
"Yeah… with the Baka gun! Now I'm afraid to see my best friend because she's going to hit me with the Baka gun in surprise." Mikan replied as she took a sip of her mango shake.
"But aren't you supposed to be happy that Hotaru will be spending one week with you?" Nonoko asked as she ate some of her cheesecake.
"Yeah, I'm happy but what if she finds out my job? She'll totally hit me!" Mikan exclaimed
"Well Mikan, just tell Hotaru that you're earning 500, 000 yen a month so she won't bother you." Nonoko replied, while Anna was looking at someone.
"Anna, what are you doing?" Mikan asked
"Do my eyes deceive me?" Anna said
"What do you mean?" Nonoko asked.
"Isn't that Shin making out with a girl?" Anna asked
"WHAT?!" Mikan exclaimed as she stood up and took a closer look. "It is Shin."
"Gee, what a surprise." Nonoko said.
Mikan walked towards Shin and the girl he was dating. Shin saw Mikan.
"Mikan, what a surprise seeing you here!" Shin said.
Mikan slapped Shin's face after. "You two timer! I'm currently dating you, and you're dating another girl?"
"Shin, is this true?" The girl asked him
"No, I don't know who that brunette girl is." Shin said to the girl he was dating.
"Oh yeah, then maybe you forgot about our date last time." Mikan replied as the girl Shin was dating gasped. "Good day!" Mikan said as she spills mango shake on Shin's head. Then, she walked away.
OooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooO
Mikan went straight home after what she did to Shin. She can't believe that someone would betray here like this. As she closed the door behind her back, tears flowed on her rosy cheeks. Her eyes, filled with tears that were never shed, flowed and reached the ground.
"I don't feel anything from Shin, but why do I feel like this?" Mikan asked herself. Then, she remembered the "incident".
"So that's why. Whenever I date a guy, I end up in tears because of that incident. I would never ask myself why it happened. I just want to cry and cry." Mikan said to herself.
Natsume went downstairs to get some water, but ended up seeing the crying brunette. He wanted to do something to make her cheer up, and he thought that maybe seeing the stars can cheer her up. By the way, he was invited to a party.
"Oi, why are you crying polka?" Natsume called
Mikan wiped her tears after. "I'm not crying. I just got sand in my eyes. Yeah," she sniffed after.
"You know what, whenever you cry and lie to me, you use the "I have sand in my eyes" excuse. Face it; you're exposed." Natsume said as he walked towards Mikan. "Stop crying now. You'll get uglier. And I don't want Youichi's mother to be like that."
Mikan smiled by the thought of Natsume cheering her up. "Gee Natsume; you're not as cold as I thought you'd be. You never opened to girl before."
"Um, I open to my friends. It's just that… crying will make you uglier. And Youichi hates it."
"Fine. I'll stop crying for Youichi's sake."
"That's better." Natsume ended the conversation. "Um hey, you want to go to a party?" Natsume asked Mikan
"Whose party?" Mikan asked
"It's Mizushima Hiro's birthday party and he invited me. So c'mon, let's go." Natsume said as he held Mikan's wrist and dragged her to his sports car and went to the party.
-- (Mizushima Hiro is a Japanese actor who played as 'Nanba Minami' in the J-drama, Hanazakari no Kimitachi e or known as Hana-Kimi: Ikemen Paradise/Hottie Paradise. He's so hot!) --
OooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooO
They arrived at the party and it was huge! It's a birthday party, so it's supposed to be huge! Hiro was outside and saw Natsume.
"Natsume, buddy!" Hiro called
"Mizushima, happy birthday." Natsume replied coldly.
"Eh, you seem to be in a bad mood! It's my birthday and all you can do is play cool? C'mon, don't be cold now. It's a party." Hiro said as he walked with Natsume to the entrance.
"Wait, I forgot my wife."
"You mean Maya?" Hiro asked as he looked behind. Then, he faced Natsume and said; "Oh. Maybe I'll just handle this while you and your wife there go inside whenever. Bye." Then, he walked going inside.
Natsume walked towards Mikan, and said; "You're coming in or not?"
Mikan just nodded her head as her reply and went inside with Natsume. Yep, there was a party with lots of actors, actresses, singers, bands, directors and crews, and lots of more.
"Gee, is this a party or a stampede?" Mikan asked herself since she never saw so many people partying.
Mikan also saw many actresses who're in love with Natsume. "Good thing she's not here." Mikan thought. Then, she saw her… "Speaking of the devil, I guess I've spoke too soon. That old hag's coming to Natsume!"
When Mikan thought that Luna was going to Natsume, she stopped by at Mikan's place.
"Oh look. I guess you're not invited in this party. If you want to go party, there's the dumpster, outside." Luna said to Mikan
"Oh yeah? Can you make one more room for my poodle there in your hair?" Mikan replied Luna.
"Sorry, I don't speak your language."
"How about I send you to the moon with one kick? Besides, it's your hometown right, Luna?"
"Will you stop getting near my Natsume? He might get some idiot germs."
"But I'm his wife so deal with it. It's not that you're going to kill me and let Natsume fall in love with you. You're so pathetic." Mikan said as Luna gasped.
"You win this round Baka, but mark my words… I'll be getting you next time." Luna said as she left Mikan, mad.
"That old hag; nothing but trouble." Mikan said to herself. Then, while picking up something to drink, Natsume went near Mikan, kind of drunk.
"Natsume, are you ok?" Mikan asked
"Okay!" Natsume replied, raising his left hand.
"You seem to be… different." Mikan said as Natsume laughed. After that, Hiro showed up to the two.
"So, having fun?" Hiro asked the two.
"Yeah, sure! Its fun." Mikan replied to Hiro. "Can you excuse us for a moment?" Then, Mikan dragged Natsume outside.
Hiro, on the other hand, saw a bowl of Nara Pickles. "Oh no… Sano's back!"
OooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooO
Mikan dragged Natsume outside and asked; "Is this some kind of act again because I don't want to fall for it… especially if you do it in public. Good thing that you did it to me in private or else we'll be caught by the police."
"Whatever," Natsume replied as he was walking sideways. Then, he fell.
"Natsume," Mikan cried as she went to him. They were facing each other. Mikan noticed Natsume; his face was getting nearer and nearer until she didn't know, a kiss happened. Her eyes widened in surprise that his lips were pressing hers.
Mikan pushed Natsume and slapped him on his right cheek. Hiro, on the other hand, was running towards the couple.
"Mikan, I have to tell you something about Natsume." Hiro said
"What is it?" Mikan asked.
"I'll tell you later. Let's put Natsume in the car first." Hiro said as Mikan nodded her head and they lifted Natsume to the back seat.
OooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooO
"Nara Pickles?" Mikan asked in amazement
"They contain alcohol, right? Well, we sometimes call Natsume 'Sano' because he kisses anyone who's near. Boy or girl, anyone can be a victim. It's kind of a weird side of him." Hiro explained while we can see Natsume with a swollen cheek, thanks to Mikan's hand.
"I was one of the victims." Hiro continued.
"Eh?!" Mikan exclaimed. "Who else were the victims?"
"There are so many to mention! His best friend, Ruka, his director, Yuu, and other J-Pop actors and actresses." Hiro said as he whispered something to Mikan's ear. "Also, those girls who were kissed by Natsume fall in love with him."
"What?!" Mikan exclaimed
"Wait, let me just ask one of my drivers to drive you home. Natsume's a drunk, while you don't know how." Hiro said.
"Sure," Mikan replied
OooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooO
Mikan and Natsume arrived home. Mikan dragged Natsume going inside, and let him snooze at the couch. She was panting heavily.
"You're a pain in the neck Natsume! You kissed me twice and all you get is a couch to lie down on?" Mikan complained.
"Wait a minute; he was drinking beer that time he said that he was acting. Or was it really beer?" Mikan thought. "Great; I have a guy who kissed me two times and a guy who's a two timer. I just don't get it! I don't feel anything for Shin, but why do I feel like crying?" Mikan asked herself as she let a tear drop.
Her cries were heard by the guy beside him. He opened his eyes, and asked; "Why are you crying again? I've invited you to Hiro's birthday party and all you can do is cry?"
"You were right Natsume. I shouldn't have dated Shin. But I don't feel anything special for him so why am I crying?" Mikan wept and wept. Then, she was hugged by Natsume; her eyes widened in surprise, her heart beating so fast and her face as red as a tomato. She can feel the spark again.
""Please… stop crying. When you cry, it's like me wanting to cry too. Please, stop." Natsume said those heartwarming words to Mikan. Mikan was comforted by Natsume, but she's confused at the same time; is this for real, is he still drunk, or is this acting?
"Natsume… why am I feeling this way? I don't know what to do. I think I've realized that what I feel for you is… LOVE." Mikan thought as she remained still in Natsume's arms.
OooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooO
