A week passed after the incident, Mikan stayed in the hospital, her classmates visits her regularly, Natsume visit her only at night,

Then in a bright early Monday Morning a brunette was running through the hallways, chanting "I'm gonna be late" over and over again…

In the class 2B of seniors, the door barged open and came a smiling girl panting because she run from the dormitories…

"Good Morning!" She yell she didn't notice that Mr. Gino was there

"Ms. Sakura! You're late again!" the teacher said

"Sorry…" she said blushing with embarrassment

The class was laughing…

"I'm glad Mikan is back to her old self…" one of the students said

"yeah, It's a good thing there's a Baka again" they giggled

She sat down on her desk beside Natsume Hyuuga the black cat,

"Good Morning Natsume!" She greeted

"Hn…" Natsume replied then continue reading his Manga

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Mikan!" Yuu called

"Yes?!"

"I heard there's a new room given to you?"

"Yes much prettier than the other, it's on the top star rows of rooms, I just have to transfer some of my things in there."

"From the old one?"

"Yes!"

"Isn't that scary?" Anna said

"Huh? A bit realizing It was the same room where someone tried to kill me but… No offense, that's still my room."

"Ok, you know I admire you." Anna said

"Why?"

"Well it's because after what happened, you're still smiling."

"Oh, That, of course I have to smile, though it's a bit scary, you just have to move on."

After class Mikan go to her old room trying to pick up some of the things she left, she go inside, it was quite arranged, the bedside table was not down anymore, it was fixed, the lamp was not on the floor shattered, it was a new lamp her things was on the bed only waiting for her to move it out of the room…She was inside of her room, it was fixed but not the memories left in it, she touched the things used to be in her room, but she still remember that horrible night, she Kneel down and cried,

"Hey Little girl…"an unfeeling voice echoed the empty room

She wipe her tears

"Hey Natsume, What are you doing here?"

"Nothing, just pass by, Why are you crying?"

"Nothing, I just remember something."

Then she felt someone embraced her tight

"Hey, Someone might see us."

Then she felt a drop of water coming from the person embracing her. She tends to look but…

"Don't turn around or I'll burn you."

"Why?"

"None of your business!"

Then Akira passes by her room, seeing the two of them…

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After fixing some of her things she, moved at her new room. She was ready to sleep and she closed her eyes…

Dream:

The flashback of what happened the night she was attacked

She gasped when she woke up, and was not able to sleep again she gaze at the clock reading 2:00 am,

"I only sleep almost 3 hours."

Then someone knocked in the door

She hear her heart beating wildly

"Who could it be, it was 2 in the morning?"

She opens the lamp beside her.

"Who is it?" She called

"Baka! Open the door!" a voice said emotionlessly

"Hotaru?"

She rushed to open the door and see Hotaru there

"Why are you here in the middle of the night?"

"I just want to check you, and ask something to you."

"Okay come in."

Then the two get inside the room

"What is it you want to talk about?"

"You and Natsume..."

"What about us?"

"Be careful being too close to him, you're relationship is being too obvious."

"Yes, Thank you for reminding me."

"And one thing… Someone's' watching you're every move?"

"Is it the stalker?"
"500 rabbits for that."

Mikan sweat drop

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Oh No! I'm late again!! Hotaru, how dare you make me think all night!"

She run to the hallways,

Then she bump into an unusual guy on the hallways, Natsume Hyuuga

"Sorry!" She apologizes

"Strawberry huh!"

"Shut up Pervert…"

"Why in a hurry?"

"Duh! I'm late!"

"Stupid as ever!"

"Sorry for being stupid!"

But the next thing that happened shocked Mikan, Natsume held her close, so close,

"Hey What's the matter?" Mikan said to Natsume as her Hazel brown orbs, has been stared by Natsume's Crimson eyes she can feel her cheeks turning red.

Without any hesitation Natsume kissed her, she didn't know what to do, she felt that this Kiss mean something, she must feel happy because she's being kissed by the person she love for 7 years but her heart was aching, when Natsume lifted his lips from her his eyes show sadness…

"Hey, Why did you kissed me here?" She said

"I just want to kiss my girlfriend, something wrong about that?" he said with an unfeeling voice

"Nothing but…"

"Bye little girl…"

"Hey!"

But Natsume waved his hands signaling that his walking away,

Mikan turned around and touch her chest,

"Natsume…She didn't refer me as his girlfriend, he never call me that…I should be smiling, but why does my heart ache. Oh no! I'm Late" she rushed

"Nothing, Hey you skipped class today! You're such a lazy buff!"

"You don't care. Don't bugged me."

Mikan was surprised

"Well sorry for bugging you! We have homework, darn it, I just want you to…"

"Get lost! You good-for-nothing Baka!"

Mikan was perplexed, she felt shame and embarrassment

Natsume jumped down

"Huh! Stupid!" then he ran away

"What's the matter with him?" she turn worried "He never talk to me like that, Maybe he has a problem!" she smiled "Yeah, Maybe that's the reason."

She looked up and saw Akira

"Hey, Of course I have to study hard!" She smiled

"That's good let me help you…"

"So it's for Natsume."

"He's seems so angry lately…"

"Really? Did you know why?"

"No, Not really… well I have to go now, see you!"

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Good Morning," Mikan greeted her classmates

"Good morning!" Her classmates greet her back

"Good Morning Ruka, Good Morning Natsume!" she greet them with a smile

Ruka replied with a warm smile but Natsume just ignore her, as if she wasn't there, he usually make a gesture but today there was not even a single glance

"Hey you bad tempered guy, you can even look at me,"

Still there was no expression

"Hey…"

"WOULD YOU SHUT UP, YOU STUPID IDIOT! I don't care if I didn't notice you, and even though you feel embarrass about it!" Natsume shouted

Everyone looked at the two of them

"What are you lookin at!" he shout

Everyone turned back to their own business

"You're such a waste of time,"

Then he walked out of the classroom

"What's wrong with him Mikan?"

"I-I don't know."

"This is the first time I heard him talk to you like that, that's scary."

"I'm sorry I've got to go!" she hurried out of the room

"What's the matter with him?"

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mikan didn't attend the class, she was too busy thinking what's wrong with Natsume

"She was walking at the Sakura Trees, she was thinking, this place was very historical for her, very significant, she was hoping to see Natsume here as usual, she saw a raven haired boy leaning on the tree trunk she was very sure that was Natsume, she wan't to talk to him, about his problem but what she saw surprised her, She saw Natsume sharing a passionate kiss with a girl from the lower years…

"Natsume?" she whispered the two stopped kissing they look at Mikan the girl was signaled by Natsume to go,

"What?" Natsume said

"How, can you…"

"You're wasting My time."

Mikan was blocked she walked towards Natsume

"You're a waste."

"Pak!" the sound of Mikan's slap echoed the tree

"You Hurt me again…" she said

"I don't care! You're a pig, believing I love you!" then he turned his back at her

Then It begin to rain, it was pouring real hard, she was crying hard

"Mikan?" a voice called

"Hey Akira!"

"What happened you're soaking wet…"

She ran towards Akira, crying

"It hurts,"

"What? What hurt?"

"He was kissing another girl, I was a pig believing that he love me!"

"Who? Is it Natsume?"

"I hate him."

"Why?"

"Mikan? Mikan!"

Mikan fell unconscious…

Natsume watch them from a window…"Akira…Maybe you did deserve her.."

Akira bring Mikan back to her room, call Hotaru to assist him.

"What happen to that idiot!" Hotaru said with her usual emotionless voice

"It's Natsume Hyuuga!" Akira said grinning with anger

"What about him?"

"He did this to Mikan! That unfeeling guy!" Akira walked away

"Where are you going?"

"Somewhere, I've got to settle things right."

"Be cautious!"

"I know!"

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mikan woke up, she look at herself at the mirror, then she pick up the first thing at the bedside the table and throw it to the mirror making it shattered into pieces, she pick up the lamp and throw it to the wall, then she picks up the chair attempting to throw it on the wall but…

"You throw that or I'll shoot you with my Baka gun!"

Mikan look at her,

"Stop that you Idiot!"

Mikan's eyes filled up with tears

"Hotaru…"

"Stop crying, It won't do any good"

"I don't want to cry, but, My eyes just keep on filling up."
