Chapter 3 'Partner'

"Mikan-chan, I have important news"

Mikan just stared at Narumi, she hoped it was good,

"since your star rank is not yet decided, you don't have a room yet, so, im assigning you a partner, and you will stay at his room."

'his' Mikan thought,' it's a guy?'

" your partner is Natsume Hyuuga"

"Heeeehhh!!??" Mikan shouted. Everyone at the room looked at the two figures talking, with Narumi covering Mikan's mouth.

"why!? why a guy?" mikan pleaded narumi.

"well, he is your seatmate, and he is a principal student, sorry mikan-chan, but your gonna have to deal with it just for tonight, we will assign your star rank tomorrow"

Then, Naurmi smiled, his warm smile, Mikan cant resist that, for some reason, there was something about narumi that made Mikan attracted to him.

"ok, but tomorrow ok?"

"that's a promise"

Mikan left the room alone, and walked inside the classroom, she was looking for Natsume,

Asking everyone she walked by, still no luck, no one had seen him, she was getting tired, and sleepy, she still walked straight into the halls that were beginning to be quiet, she saw a shadow,

it was Ruka, she was relieved to see Ruka, he might know where Natsume is, she came up to him.

"Ruka-pyon!~"

Ruka recognized that voice, upon realizing who's it was, he blushed, then lookd down, he didn't want Mikan to see him blushing.

"Ruka-pyon, have you seen Natsume?"

Ruka's blushing face went away, then turned to face Mikan, with a questionable expression.

"why?" Ruka asked.

"well, Narumi-sensei told me that, since I have no star ranking yet, I have to stay in Natsume's room for the night since he's the assigned partner for me."

Ruka's eyes widened at Mikan's answer,

he didn't want to tell Mikan where Natsume is or where she can find Natsume's room, but she looked so tired and restless, and he didn't want Mikan looking like that,

he wanted her to rest, so
"I don't know where Natsume is, but I can lead you to his room if you like."

"really!? That would be great! Thanks Ruka-pyon your very nice"

Ruka blushed at Mikan's compliment to him. Then started walking.

They were walking in the quiet halls of the dorm, the sun was setting, finally, they reached Natsume's room, Ruka had a duplicate key, since of course, to Natsume, Ruka's welcome anytime. So Ruka opened the door for Mikan.

Mikan entered and to her surprise, the room was huge! It was so elegent, and the bathroom was clean,big and was made out of marble, the bathtub was pure stainless glass with silver linings, the bathroom walls were also made out of some expensive marble, it all looked so elegant.

Mikan, growing up in the countryside, don't have this kind of bathroom. At her excitement, she took of her clothes, and then shoved her pale, slender body in the bath.

She feel like she's in heaven, the water was also mixed with some type of Milk, that made the water pale white, complimenting the color of her skin, her brown locks were untied and her long hair was covering her frontal body.

After 20 min. of resting in the tub, she stood up, took a towel, then wrapped her the towel around her slender body, covering her down to her lower thigh. Her hair was covering her back and some were in front, suddenly.

"KYAAAAAAA!!!" Mikan screamed covering her body.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE!" she demanded.

"this is my room, idiot." It was Natsume, he looked shocked, seeing Mikan only in a towel, she was attractive, that Natsume cant deny, she was pale as the moon, it goes well with her honey brown eyes. Her long chocolate colored hair was long covering her body.

"what are you staring at!?" Mikan demanded.

"can you please leave the bathroom and close the door!?"

Without a word, Natsume left, he was still caught in a daze. Realizing that he's thoughts were occupied, he snapped out of it.

-Natsume's POV-

What am I thinking? I cant like her, I cant like girls, Im Hyugga Natsume, I don't like anybody, aside from Ruka, I cant like girls, especially her, she;s too annoying, always smiling. Why did she have to be so attractive? Arrgghh! Enough thinking. Just gonna rest.

-End of Nastume's POV-

Natsume lay down on his king-size bed, relaxing his thoughts.

Mikan came out of the Bathroom, she was wearing a large t-shirt, and short shorts, she had nothing else to wear, since she didn't know she would be sleeping with a boy, she thought that she should have bought her PJ's with her.

Her hair was untied, and she woke Natsume up.

"Natsume, where will I sleep, you have no couch or something."

"Here, on the bed, where else do you want to sleep?"

"What!? Ill sleep beside you?"

"Yeah,"

"Ok, just don't do anything weird okay?"

"I wont do anything weird to an ugly person like you."

"UGLY!?"

"Shut up and go to sleep"

"Fine."

Mikan got up on the left side of the bed, and Natsume was on the right side, their not facing each other. But, they share one blanket.

Natsume couldn't sleep. He's just wide-awake, resting, while he hears the breathing of Mikan.

It was late, probably past midnight, Natsume was still awake,but now he's facing Mikan, who's fast asleep, and is also facing him. They were facing each other. Natsume cant help but stare at Mikans' baby like face, her features were perfect, her long lashes were thick and dark, her lips were cherry red, they looked so soft, and her cheeks were rosy pink.

He closed his eyes, and released his thoughts, he didn't want to think about Mikan, he didn't want to like Mikan, he didn't want anyone to get close to him, he didn't want to get close to someone, he didn't want people to be caught in his darkness.

Then at the late night, they were both asleep.
