Perfect Girl

Chapter 11 (part 1)

Yo! Finally, I updated. Please read the note below, I think it's important. ;) HAHA. Ready yourself, this is CRAPPY. HAHA. Let's start.

Disclaimer: You know the drill.

One week after…

Hmmm. The gang seems tired. Why, you ask?

"I can't find a suitable job for myself… *sigh*" Tsubasa started the conversation.

"Really? HAHAHAHA. Aww, Sooooooooooo sooooooooooo sooooooooo sad, Tsubasa," the twin brothers teased.

"Said the GREAT TWINS with PERFECT jobs for themselves," Sumire and Misaki just interupted their celebration.

Sigh.

Yes, people. The greatest gang of the whole world whom the whole student academy looked up upon, cannot find jobs.

They are all choosy anyways. *smirk*

"Natsume, you got a job?" his best friend, Ruka.

Natsume smirked… and the whole gang tensed. HE DID?

After few minutes of staring with each other, the first one sighed and shook his oh-so-cutely-i-mean-handsome head.

"MOU! SEE? It's I-M-P-O-S-S-I-B-L-E!" Misaki shouted.

"Yeah! Even my onii-chan can't find a job," Aoi agreed.

"Urusai," Natsume grumpily said.

Sigh. Everyone seems so hopeless.

"Guess, I need to help you eh?" a voice said. They all turned around and…

"MIKAN/NEE-CHAN/SAKURA-SAN/MIKAN-CHAN!" they shouted, but then… we wouldn't miss the "POLKA!"

A vein popped out of Mikan's head… Polka? Tch.

She don't want to remember that anymore. Last Sunday, they went to Central Town, but Koko, being the idiot he is… tripped. And then… just because of a little trip… EVERYTHING WENT TO CHAOS! Don't ask what that chaos is… Chaos is chaos.

Of course, Mikan, Natsume, Hotaru, and Youichi… they dodged all the flying things that went to their directions… But, luck wasn't on Mikan's side… After of all the things she dodged, just a little ball… just a little ball hit her! Then, she felt a little dizzy. Who wouldn't, if a tennis ball hit you? Hard. How did even that little innocent tennis ball was in there in the first place? And… then, Mikan is still Mikan after all. No matter how much she changed… There's still her clumsiness, NO MATTER HOW TINY IT IS, clumsiness is clumsiness. She tripped… which caused of her underwear being seen by, no other than, *dun dun dun dun* HYUUGA NATSUME!

And hell break loose. With Natsume smirking, Hotaru and Youichi annoyed, Mikan furiously glaring a ready-to-kill glare at Koko who's trembling to death and hiding to Kitsu who's also shaking because Sumire was like a devil because she was caught in the chaos and Misaki was… Oh-kay… That's enough,.. you already got the point, right?

Sigh.

It can't be help. They still gave her a little help because they still gave her a trip on Central Town, not that she needed. She can just use her alice, bu still… It saved her energy when they gave her a tour. Well, time to give them her 'help'.

"Why do you need a job, anyways? You guys are already rich. Tch, greediness?" She asked.

Pffft. Wrong move. If only ou knew why they need a job…

"GREEDINESS? GREEDINESS? YOU SAID GREEDINESS? WTH? AFTER WHAT YOUR UNCLE DID, WE'RE THE ONES WHO ARE GREEDY? AND WHAT ARE YOU? SADIST! WE'RE HAVING A HARD TIME HERE, AND WHAT ARE YOU DOING? READING! READING IN YOUR DARK ROOM! ENJOYING EVERY BIT OF YOUR LIFE! WHAT… WHAT? IT'S ALREADY BEEN TWO WEEKS SINCE YOU TRANSFERRED HERE! YOU STILL HAVEN'TT FINISHED THAT BOOK! TCH! YOU'RE NOT EVEN HELPING US! NOT. A. BIT!" they snapped (except the therre: Natsume, Hotaru and Youichi who nodded).

Silence.

They may not saw it, but Mikan's face is cheerful when she came in… but… hmm, after what they said? Fat chance. The once happy face became a cold and emotionless one.

"Hmm. If you can't find a job suitable for you, then why don't make one? Think of a job that was in your taste and try it. I don't think you'll fail, seeing that you have your fans," she daid monotonously. "Jaa."

And the group was like… HUH?

~ Perfect Girl ~

Mikan closed the door behind her. She's back in her room… in her sanctuary. It's cold… she took out the book that they were talking and opened it… and… it revealed… BLANK PAGES?

So that's what they think of me… huh? Even Hotaru and Youichi… and… Natsume.

Then…

Huh? What am I … thinking? *sigh*

She opened a frawer and there placed pack of pack of pack of pack of files and documents…

If only they knew…

"*sigh* Well then, I guess, it's time to do my work," she said emotionlessly to herself… and with that, she started working on it.

~ Perfect Girl ~

After 3 hours…

"It's time for dinner…" Anna said.

"Yeah," Nonoko agreed.

"I wonder…" Tsubasa started. "Does Mikan-chan doesn't have any plan on going out of her room?"

"It can't be help, ne?" Koko said as he keep on muching and munching foods while smiling like an idiot as always.

"BE SERIOUS, KOKO!" Sumire said as she hit his boyfriend's head.

Koko sighed and held his head down. "Then, what will you, no, we do? We shouted her because of no reason at all. I mean, she's just kidding, but we shouted spme nonsense things at her… which obviously hurt her feelings."

They fell into silence. "Koko's right," Yuu agreed.

"Just when she was finaaly opening up to us…" Aoi and Kitsu said in unison.

Hotaru, Youichi and Natsume's eyes widened. "Yeah…" the other's agreed.

Natsume stood up. "Where are you going, Hyuuga?" Hotaru asked. Obviously, it's only Hotaru and Youichi who noticed that Natsume's leaving because the others are having their own battle about how they are going to say sorry to Mikan.

"Somewhere," he answered and took a turn in his right.

"Baka," Hotaru whispered as she watched Natsume disappeared fron her sight.

"What's wrong, Hotaru?" asked his oh-so-lovely-and-looks-like-a-prince-charming boyfriend.

"Nothing," she answered as she continued eating.

"Oh, okay then," Ruka just shrugged. "Ah, where's Natsume?"

"He left," this time, it was Youichi who answered. Youichi looked at his food emotionlessy (like Hotaru) and resumed eating. But then… if you looked closely, in their eyes, you can see the sadness, guilt, and regret in their eyes.

"Oh."

~ Perfect Girl ~

Mikan yawned. Finally… I'm finished. What time is it now?.. hmmm… it's already past 8? Whoa. I didn't know that I worked for three hours? Hmmm. I still have time… Why don't I take a nap? ;) Okay! A nap.

KNOCK KNOCK

"Come in." – and with that, the door of Mikan's room opened. And there came in… Natsume.

"What might be your reason of why you came in here?" Mikan asked politely.

"Because you say so," Natsume answered as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.

"Oh."

Silence fell between them.

"What are you doing?" Natsume asked, breaking the awkward silence.

"Reading."

"Oh."

"…"

"What are you reading?"

"Nothing."

"Oh."

"Ne,, I was just wondering… Why do you need a job?" Mikan asked.

"Hmmm, why do you need to know?" Natsume questioned back.

"Why? Do't I have any rights to be curious?"

"Well, do I need to answer that if you're only curious?"

"Tch. Then, don't."

"…"

"…"

"What are you doing?"

"Laying on my bed."

"Oh."

Silence…

Suddenly, figure came out of the shadows.

"Mikan, it's already time. Let's go," Persona said.

"Eh? EH? It's alread 9 o'clock? Matte ne, nii-chan. I'll just go get change."

"Hn."

"Where are you going?" Natsume asked Persona when Mikan went inside her bathroom to change her clothes.

"Somewhere…"

"Hn."

Mikan came out of the bathroom. "Let's go nii-chan. Jaa, Hyuuga."

Hyuuga? Since when did she called me that? Natsume thought. "Hn."

"We'll be going now, Kuro Neko," Persona said. Natsume, even with the emoionless face he always wearing, swetdropped. Since when did Persona let him know when me will be going? I mean, he always appears out of nowhere.. and disappears without anyone knowing… But now he said 'We'll be going now, Kuro neko?" Natsume thought.

WAIT! Did I hear it right? Kuro Neko? Don't tell me…

Natsume stared wide-eyed to the place where Mikan and her brother disappeared.

…Mission?

~ Perfect Girl ~

"OH-KAY! It's decided! We're going to have our own business!" Aoi said, most likely, shouted.

"YEAH!" the others agreed… except Hotaru (who's having her tea time), Youichi (who's staring at Natsume in wonder), and Natsume (who's looking at the outside of the window).

"We, guys…" – Kitsu and Koko.

"…are going to have our HOST CLUB!" – Tsubasa and Yuu.

"And, we, girls…" – Anna and Nonoko.

"…are going to have our CAFÉ!" – Misaki, Permy and Aoi.

"More like a host club inside a café actually… Or a cosplay café," Eugh. Hotaru said and thought, annoyed. Let's just say that she's against of the thought that they'll do cosplay café and her boyfriend will be a host… Hmm, I smell jealousy… *smirk*

"This time, we'll succeed!" They cheered.

~ Perfect Girl ~

"Natsume…?" Ruka called.

"Hn?"

"… What are you doing?" he asked.

"Thinking."

"Oh. About what, may I ask?"

"…Nothing."

Ruka just stared at his best friend. "Oh, I see. Then, if you need to talk to someone, don't hesitate to call me ne?" he smiled.

Natsume looked at Ruka then back to the night sky. "Hn." He smiled a small smile. Ruka really knows him. He knows it whenever to bugged him or not.

"Jaa," Ruka said before going to others who are having their plan on making their Business Plan into action.

~ Perfect Girl ~

They didn't went to a mission… right? Natsume thought as he walked to his room.

It's already been a year and a half since my last mission… What now? Natsume glanced at the clock. It's already 12 in the midnight… Why is she still NOT coming back?

He laid down to his king sized bed, staring at the ceiling.

I'm worried…
