CHAPTER 3: Overprotective much?

6 years later…

Natsume grew to be a really hot guy. He was the heartthrob of their school and next to him is Ruka. These 16 year old lads are also one of the top students in Alice Academy which is their school. They can ace almost every exam even if they don't review at all. They are also into sports and they are varsity players in basketball and volleyball. Natsume is always the leader while Ruka was next to him. Although Natsume doesn't show, he has grown fond of his sister. Ruka also developed some feelings for Hotaru but he just kept quiet about it. Only Natsume knows about this.

On the other hand, Mikan was studying at the same school as her big brother. She just transferred this year with Hotaru since her first school was an all girls' school. She's known for her cheerfulness and her smile is famous since it can always make a person's day bright. She's grown to be a pretty 15 year old. She lets her hair down and she has the body of a goddess. She has also met her best friend, Hotaru, when she was 9. She's also in the cheerleading club and she cheers for her brother and Ruka whenever there's a competition or something.

~~~***~~~***~~~***~~~

It was their first day of school and a crimson eyed lad was already prepared for school as he went down to the kitchen for his breakfast.

"Ohayo, Natsume." greeted his mother. "Where's Mikan?"

"Dunno. Asleep?" he coolly replied.

"Oh. Could you call her and tell her that breakfast is ready. If she's still asleep, please wake her up. It's not good to be late on the first day of the school year after all."

Natsume then went back upstairs. He then knocked on the front door of Mikan's room but no one was answering so he just came in. Since the alarm clock NEVER works on Mikan, he just did the most effective way that can wake up her sister – he pulled her blanket and threw the water of the flower vase onto her face.

"Hey! Why'd you do that?!" Mikan yelled while glaring at her brother.

"Baka. You sleep too much Polka Dots. Get up and prepare yourself since breakfast is ready."

"You could have woken me up with something else!" she yelled until she realized something. "Huh? Polka Dots?" she asked herself until realization suddenly hit her. "KYYYYYAAAA!!! Natsume you pervert!"

"Whatever. Geez. You're already 15 and yet you still don't wear decent underwear." He said as he headed towards the door. "Just take a bath already. I don't wanna be late all because of a slowpoke like you. So hurry up because I'm definitely not going to wait for you."

He then left the room as Mikan did her morning routines. After a few minutes, she scurried down to the dining hall for her breakfast. "Ohayo okaa-san." She greeted upon entering the room.

"Ohayo Mikan. Now eat your food already, you're going to be late. Your brother is already leaving." Yuri said while staring at Natsume who was getting the car keys from the cabinet. When Mikan saw this, she hurriedly ate her food on the plate and then ran to the garage to catch up with Natsume.

"You could have at least waited for a bit longer Mr. Pervert."

"Whatever. You're the one who moves as slow as a very old turtle. And I am not a pervert. You're the one showing them."

After a whole lot of bickering along the road, they finally arrived to school. The two of them still have the same class schedule and Ruka was also their classmate. They were hopping down the car as they saw Ruka. "Ohayo Ruka!" greeted Mikan.

"Ohayo Natsume. Ohayo Mikan." Ruka stated. Mikan then went to their room and saw Hotaru on her seat. Mikan then greeted her and they had a little chat as their teacher went in.

"Ohayo my students! Since today is the first day of class, I would declare it a free day so feel free to explore!" Mr. Narumi explained as he spun his way out the room.

The class then did whatever they wanted until dismissal time. Mikan cannot go home early because Natsume still has basketball practice since they have afternoon practices every day. While waiting for Natsume to finish his practice, she decided to take a little walk to clear some time. She then roamed all around the campus until she reached the area where it was near the basketball court.

She saw how Natsume and Ruka were practicing so she just decided to go to the bleachers and then watch them practice instead of walking around. She sat quietly while admiring how her brother and Ruka play so well.

"Whoa, I never knew that Natsume and Ruka were this good." She whispered in awe while a whistle was heard as a signal that there will be a five minute break for the players.

MIKAN'S POV

I heard a whistle sound coming from Coach Izumi. I guess that they would have a little break or something. It seems that Natsume and didn't notice me here yet so I just kept quiet 'cause I don't want to be a bother to the both of them. A few minutes after, a blonde guy suddenly came next to me. I could tell that he's also a player since he's all sweaty and stuff.

"Hello, who are you? You're new here so would you mind if I show you around the school after the practice?" he said with a very irritating voice as his hands are suddenly wrapping around my waist.

"Come on little missy. It won't be that bad. Maybe we could even have some fun when we're all alone." He said in a very seducing manner.

I really wanted to scream but I felt that my voice suddenly betrayed me at the very moment that I needed it the most. "Waaaahhh! I can't even utter a word! Help me!" I screamed in my mind as the blonde guy was suddenly taken aback by something. It looks like someone has hit him real hard. When I turned around, I saw Natsume who was definitely mad. "Oh boy. Natsume's mad. This isn't good." I thought.

END OF MIKAN'S POV

NORMAL POV

"What the heck was that for Hyuuga?!" the blonde guy yelled. "Mind your own fucking business! This chick is mine! Go and find yourself a new one! First come first serve policy here!"

"The 'chick' that you're talking about is my sister, you dimwit! Mess with her and you'll meet hell, got that?! What do you think you're doing to her?!" Natsume retorted while he took Mikan's wrist as he dragged her towards the car.

"Hey! It hurts! Let go! Your practice is not even done yet! Natsume!" Mikan stated while they were walking across the court.

"Oi, Ruka. Just tell coach that there's an emergency so I need to go home right away. I need to bring this baka home." He said while Ruka just nodded.

The whole ride home was silent as heavy rain started to pour down. Once they arrived home, Natsume went straight to his room while Mikan just stared at him wondering what has gotten onto his brother since she has never seen him that mad before. She just went to her room and watched the rain pour down from her window sill.

"It was a good thing that Natsume was there a while ago. If he didn't come to my aid, I wouldn't even know what could have happened to me. But why was he so mad? He's never been that mad whenever a guy talks to me before." She thought as she heard the burst of thunder and a flash of lightning appeared from the scenery that she was staring at. This sent shivers down her spine.

"Ooohh. Please don't let it be a thunderstorm. I hate that stuff." She wished silently as she was now going to the bathroom for her to change into her night clothes. She wore a light pink silk night gown that reaches her knees. It was only plain but it looked so elegant.

NATSUME'S POV:

"What the heck happened a while ago?" he thought as he notice thunder and lightning from outside.

"Tch. A thunderstorm huh? I bet Polka won't be able to sleep tonight." He said as he smirked. He was now wearing a plain blue t-shirt and black jogging pants. He was just sitting on the corner of his bed while reading a manga.
