The two new students proceeded to the faculty room. Hayato was amazed with the school. Its very different than the school in America. He feels more at home here than there.
"So, this is the feeling of coming back." Hayato said.
"Yeah. I'm really glad to be back here in this academy." Mikan said.
They arrived at the Faculty room. Upon seeing Mikan, Narumi immediately hugged her daughter,
"Mikan-chan. I'm really glad you came back."
"Narumi-sensei, I missed you. How's everyone?"
"Everyone is doing great. Its a shame you missed Valentines, but White Day is coming soon."
"I'm looking forward to that." Mikan said, then she introduced Hayato.
After talking with Narumi, Mikan asked him a favor,
"Sensei, can you not reveal who am I to them yet? I wanna introduce myself properly."
"Okay. See you at class tomorrow Mikan-chan! Hayato-kun." Narumi said.
Before the two left, Narumi talked with them.
"Mikan, Hayato-kun I'm entrusting you with this mission."
"What is it about??" they asked.
A few minutes later, after talking with Narumi, Hayato and Mikan walked around. Hayato asked,
"Is that teacher gay?" (So direct!! Go Hayato!!)
"Definitely not!" Mikan said, defending her favorite teacher.
"I was just curious."
"I know."
". . ."
"Let's have a bet. If you say my name without me telling who I am first, you need to pay me 1000 rabbits."
"Sure, Like I would anyway."
"Really? We'll see about that."
"Mikan, Are you going to wear your mask tomorrow?"
"Maybe. To surprise them of course."
"Then, I'll just call you Mask-chan. Hehe. It's payback for calling me pig."
"Whatever, I'll take a rest now. See you tomorrow Hayato!" Mikan said and ran to the opposite direction.
"But I would prefer if you stay with me for awhile." Hayato said and sighed.
The next day,
Narumi and Hayato were just outside Class B, waiting for Mikan.
"Uhm, sensei, maybe she is still sleeping. Don't worry, I know she'll be here later." Hayato told his teacher.
"Really? Oh well, time to introduce you now." Narumi said and entered the room.
"Everyone! We have a new student. Come in Hayato." he announced.
Hayato went inside the room. He stood next to Narumi as he looked at his new classmates.
'There is the ice princess, animal-lover, mind-reader, illusionist, . . .' he thought as he enumerated all their alices or who they are. Then his eyes stopped once it reached a certain guy sitting at the back with a girl.
"Hyuuga." Hayato mumbled. Narumi heard this and asked,
"What did you say? Do you know Natsume-kun?"
"No, I just heard his name a while ago. Anyway, I'm Hayato Ruruono. I'm 14. Everyone can call me Hayato." he said and smiled.
All the girls squealed and had hearts in their eyes except for Hotaru and Kaede..
"What is your alice Hayato-kun? and your star ranking?" a girl asked.
"I have the alice of water and ice. I am a special star." Hayato replied. He heard some "ohhss" and "ahhh"
"Are you single?" a green-haired girl asked.
'She must be permy. Sumire Shouda' Hayato thought. He answered,
"I am but I'm currently in love now. To a girl with the brightest smile of all."
Sumire smirked, "In a matter of time Hayato-kun, You'll fall in love with m-" Sumire was interrupted when the door burst open.
Everyone stared at the auburn-haired girl who opened the door. Natsume and Hotaru stared at her too. The girl was wearing a mask.
Hayato sighed, "Why are you wearing your mask Mikan??" he asked.
This made everyone's eyes widen, 'Mikan he said?' they thought.
Natsume twitched, 'He can't mean my Mikan?' he thought. (this is what you call not being loyal. You have a girlfriend! Tch.)
"Hayato, you just told everyone my name! Oh, you owe me 1000 rabbits. You said my name. You lost the bet." Mikan said blankly.
She walked towards Hayato and Narumi. Then, she faced the class. Slowly, she took off her mask and introduced herself,
"Hello! I'm sure all of you remembers me but, I'll introduce myself anyway. I am Mikan Sakura! It's glad to be back!"
She felt everyone's eyes on her. No one was speaking, nor making any sound. Silence surrounded the room. Mikan sweat-dropped.
'I think, I want to do another mission rather than sit down and explain..' Mikan thought.
Hayato broke the silence as he said, "Sensei, me and Mikan are going to take the seat beside the table of the fire-caster."
"Yeah. I guess. Everyone, I'm going to go now. Today's a free day. I know you want to bond with the two." Narumi said and left.
As Mikan and Hayato sat down, they felt they were still being stared at. There was still silence.
"How troublesome." Mikan mumbled.
"You bet." Hayato whispered.
Natsume just stared at the two, he thought, 'Who the hell is that Hayato? Why is he close to her?? I'm gonna burn him someday!'
Suddenly, they heard footsteps approaching their room. (That's how quiet they are.) The door slammed open, revealing Misaki, her foot on the air. She just kicked the door. Next to her is Tsubasa. The two ran towards Mikan.
"Mikan-chan!! I just heard from Narumi! Welcome back!" Tsubasa shouted and lifted Mikan up.
Mikan smiled at him, "Sorry I didn't tell you. I'm back Tsubasa-senpai, Misaki-senpai."
Tsubasa let Mikan down. Misaki hugged her, "Our little girl came back! Misaki-senpai missed you."
"I'm not a little girl senpai. I just turned 14 last January."
"Really? Oh right. Happy Birthday!" Tsubasa and Misaki said, or more like shouted.
Hayato went near the three who were having a little reunion.
"Uhm. . .I am Hayato. Pleased to meet you senpai's!" Hayato said and smiled at the two upperclassmen.
Tsubasa and Misaki looked at him with dotted-eyes. They tilted their head sidewards(Imagine chibi Tsubasa and Misaki).
"Who is this cute boy Mikan? Your boyfriend?" Tsubasa asked.
Mikan shook her head, "No, he's a very close friend. He really took great care of me back in America."
Misaki looked around the classroom. She wondered why the students just stared at them. Then she asked,
"Is it me or everyone seems silent?"
"It isn't just you Misaki-senpai. They've been like that since Mikan came." Hayato explained.
Tsubasa went near Koko and poked his cheek with a stick. He did the same with everyone else, except for Hotaru and Natsume.
"I think, they were just shocked with what they're seeing now. They are all stiff." Tsubasa said.
Mikan smiled wickedly, "If its like that, why don't we take a picture of everyone in shock mode and use it for blackmail??"
"Good idea. We can even mess up their faces with pentel pen." Misaki added.
Hayato's eyes widened as he smiled and suggested, "Why don't we dress up the boys as a girls and take a picture of them?"
Tsubasa, Misaki and Mikan smiled and nodded. Suddenly, Hotaru was found standing beside Mikan, her eyes shining, she said,
"I'm in." She was holding her camera.
Tsubasa, Misaki, Hayato and Mikan sweat-dropped. Then her classmates finally snapped out of their trance and crowded her.
"Mikan-chan!! Your back!!" a boy said.
"Mikan-sama! We missed you!" a girl screamed.
"You are still very beautiful Mikan-chan!" another boy said.
BAKA BAKA BAKA
Hotaru sighed and told everyone, "She needs some air. We don't want a corpse here don't we?"
"Hotaru-chan, you didn't change." Mikan mumbled.
"Mikan!" Ruka shouted.
"Oh, Ruka-pyon! Long time no see. I heard from Hotaru you two are going out?" Mikan asked.
Ruka blushed, "W-w-well y-yeah." he said, embarassed.
Mikan laughed. Then she saw Natsume and Kaede walking towards them. Mikan smiled at him and thought,
'The two of the are coming. I need to smile, I need to smile!!'
Natsume just stared at Mikan. Kaede noticed this and frowned a little but she smiled widely again.
Natsume thought, 'I hope she didn't take what I said before too much.' (Ugh!! Natsume!! You just don't know!! Wahhhh..)
"Natsume! Kaede! Hello!" she manage to say.
"Mikan-chan! Welcome back. I missed you so much." Kaede said, she hugged Mikan.
Hayato smirked as he thought, 'She's that girl who is going out with Hyuuga. The girl who also broke Mikan's heart.'
Natsume stepped forward and greeted, "Yo."
"Hello! Nice to see you again Natsume. I missed you." Mikan said and hugged Natsume.
There was silence. No one wanted to tell Mikan what was going on between Kaede and Natsume. They don't want to let her know.
Suddenly, Koko blurted out. "She knows already so we can all relax."
"You knew?!" some of their classmated demanded. Mikan nodded.
"Anyway, putting that aside, HOTARUUUUU!!!" Mikan shouted and prepared to hug her friend.
BAKA BAKA BAKA BAKA
Hotaru shot her Baka gun at her but before it hit her, Hayato pulled Mikan and so, she was able to dodge it.
"Hayato, you didn't need to do that." Mikan said as she pouted.
Hayato asked her, "Why? You were about to be hit by that gun. You wanna be killed?"
"I've been hit by that gun so many times already and nothing happened to me."
"But, I felt I needed to save you."
"You don't need to, I can take care of myself."
"You are so clumsy and yet you keep telling me that?"
"I'm not clumsy!"
"You are."
"Am not."
"You are."
"Change topic."
"Admitting it for once Mikan?"
"Shut up."
Hayato and Mikan kept annoying and insulting each other. Everyone just watched the two argue. Everything was like deja vu. Except for the fact that Mikan was arguing with Hayato, not Natsume. Natsume looked at the two, he felt angry. He watched them arguing and they still kept their smiles on their faces. He was jealous of Hayato,
'Who the heck does he think he is?!' Natsume thought.
"Stupid." Hayato said.
"Annoying."
"idiot"
"loser"
"freak"
"Pig." Mikan said. That was the final straw.
"That wasn't a insult." Hayato said.
"It was. So you admit you are a pig?"
"Yea- wait. No!"
Mikan laughed at Hayato, "You always entertain me everytime you complain about me calling you pig."
"Hmph."
Hotaru tapped Hayato, "I was listening a while ago and I think you should've insulted her with ugly or super super ugly.. And you could've emphasized the word ugly."
Natsume smirked, "You could also insult her with the panties she was wearing."
Hayato smiled, then he said, "First, I won't insult her with ugly. I can't do that. She has a pretty face. Why would I insult someone ugly if she was the opposite? Second, I'm not a pervert so I don't look at that. And besides, I know she wouldn't like it when I call her polka-dots or something. Mikan is fine. It's a pretty name."
Natsume twitched, 'this guy, is deinitely getting on my nerves.' he thought.
Koko caught this and sweat-dropped, 'Looks like Hayato-kun got himself on top of Natsume's enemy list. Poor him.' he thought
'I think, this guy deserves Mikan more than Hyuuga but Hyuuga cares for her more. He just can't show his feelings' Hotaru thought.
Then, the girls sighed. Its as if they lost a big game.
"Why did you sigh?" Mikan asked.
Sumire replied, "Its because you guys look good with each other. Hayato seems to really love you. Lucky you Mikan."
"All hopes are gone. He isn't available. Wait Mikan-chan, is he available?" a girl said.
Mikan and Hayato laughed. Everyone stared at them, looking at them like they're insane.
"Don't worry girls. He is waaaay available. We aren't going out." Mikan said.
Hayato placed a hand at the back of his head, "We aren't. Don't worry."
Sumire asked, "How would we know? What if you were joking?"
Hayato answered Sumire, "I love Mikan. I even confessed to her." Gasps were heard.
"But I dumped him. Poor guy actually." Mikan said and laughed harder.
'And they still get along well like nothing happened?' the class thought.
Mikan sighed then she told them, "But somehow, I want to be with him all the time. I really do. Maybe I'm starting to like him."
"Really? You are starting to like me? I guess this is what you call Mutual Understanding?" Hayato asked.
"Maybe. Then I guess he isn't that available. Oh well. It makes me dizzy when I think so much."
The two looked at each other and laughed even louder.
'Looks like someone is about to explode.' Hotaru thought. She was looking at Natsume.
Suddenly, the door opened. In came a crying Aoi. She went straight to Natsume.
"What's wrong Aoi?" Natsume asked. He carried Aoi.
"My classmates were teasing me again. They kept shouting I shouldn't be here because I don't have an alice." Aoi said.
Mikan looked at Hayato. Hayato smiled at her.
FLASHBACK
"Mikan, Hayato-kun I'm entrusting you with this mission."
"What is it about?" they asked.
Narumi answered, "It's about Aoi. Mikan, you need to unseal the seal you did to Aoi a few years back."
"Why?" Mikan asked.
She remembered what happened years ago. She was told to seal Aoi's alice. Her alice is limited unlike Natsume's. Mikan sealed Aoi's alice when Aoi was sleeping. Mikan cried for days because she didn't want Aoi to lose her alice. Aoi values it like how much she valued her brother.
"Well, the higher-ups ordered you to do that." Narumi said.
"Okay, I'll do it once I see her."
Narumi turned around and told Mikan, "I'm sure the girl will be happy too. To be able to recover her alice that she thought was gone"
"You are right" Mikan said and smiled.
END OF FLASHBACK
Mikan talked to Hayato in his mind. As you can she, she already acquired the alice of telepathy.
"Are we getting started?"
"Yes. Use your alice after I carry Aoi in my arms. Wait, when I kneel do it. Ok?"
"Sure."
"Ready?"
"Anytime."
Mikan went near Aoi and took her away from Natsume.
"Aoi-chan. It's me Mikan. Stop crying. You'll look ugly." Mikan said, comforting the 9-year-old.(She celebrated her b-day already)
Aoi looked at the person carrying her, "Mikan-onee-chan? I'm so glad to see you!!" Aoi shouted.
Mikan knelt down. Hayato started to do his work. He made a fog-like smoke using his Ice Alice. (cold fog-like smoke. like smoke from dry-ice. Only darker)
"Aoi, I'll give you your alice back." Mikan whispered at Aoi's ear once the smoke spread already and once no one can see a thing.
"Huh? Are you sure onee-chan? You can?" Aoi whispered back.
Mikan smiled at her, "But don't tell anyone I did it? Ok?"
Aoi nodded. She closed her eyes.
Mikan kissed her forehead after saying a few words, "Unseal the power within"
"What's happening?" Mikan heard Ruka say.
The others were panicking already. Mikan can hear their footsteps very clearly. Once the fog cleared, they saw Mikan hugging Aoi tight.
"Mikan, do you know what happened?" Kaede asked. She was confused.
Mikan smiled at her, "No. Once the fog appeared, I immediately hugged Aoi."
"I see." Kaede muttered to herself.
Aoi pointed upwards and concentrated on making a fire. It happened, a fire appeared from her finger.
"Onii-chan!! Onee-chan! Look! Look!" Aoi shouted.
Everyone's eyes widened.
"I got my alice back!" Aoi shouted once again.
Natsume asked, "How?"
"Dunno, after the fog, I felt something warm inside me so I tried it. My alice is back!"
Mikan let go of Aoi. Aoi ran to Natsume. Natsume hugged his sister,
"Thank goodness!"
All the students crowded at them, congratulating them. Hayato approached Mikan who was smiling widely from the start.
"Good Job." Hayato said.
"Thanks."
"Let's go eat. I'm getting hungry."
Tsubasa shouted, "I'm coming with you! Let's go Misaki."
Misaki and Tsubasa joined them. They walked away from the classroom. Hayato stayed behind. He went inside the classroom.
"Hyuuga." he said loudly.
One of Natsume's eyebrows arched up, "What do you want?"
"You are definitely being stupid. I can't believe you became her boyfriend." Hayato said as he pointed at Kaede.
"Tch. Got a problem with it?" Natsume asked.
"Yeah. Big Problem. Because of you, a certain someone is hurt a lot. And because of that, I made you an enemy."
"So?"
"Beware Hyuuga. I won't let you hurt her again. I will definitely make you pay."
"hurt who?"
"Mikan. From now on, I want you to stay away from her." Hayato said and smirked. He left the room
Koko read Hayato's mind before he left. Koko was shocked with it.
'I won't let that damn Hyuuga hurt Mikan. She was hurt because of him. She was heart-broken.'
Kaede tried to smile, "Natsume?"
'Hurt Mikan? How?' he thought. (so now you are dense. tch.)
Mikan smiled at the students as she passed by. Hayato caught up with them.
"Where did you go?" she asked.
"Oh, I got business so I just took care of it." Hayato replied.
"I see. Let's go now."
The four of them walked towards the cafeteria. They passed by the Sakura Tree. And Mikan remembered some memories.
'I missed so much things. I missed my life before here, but now its all different. He has her. And I have no one. I wonder Natsume, I wonder if sometime, things will go back to the way they are before. If I could only turn back time, I would tell you I love you before I left for America. I would tell you how much I do.'
Me: Yea! That's one heck of a chapter.
Hayato: I know.
Natsume: . . .
Mikan: Ne, Natsume, why are you not talking?
Natsume: . . .
Me: Let him be Mikan. He's just jealous.
Mikan: Oh really? Why?
Hayato: My, my. Did I really make him mad? I just hope he doesn't kill me.
Mikan: Who'll kill you?
Koko: (sigh)
Hotaru: Tch. Don't forget to leave a review!
Mikan: Please Review Everyone!! Please RevieW!!
