Chapter Eight: Sleepover

"Oh my god, look at this room! This is just insane!" Anna gasped.

Mikan nodded her head in agreement. When you entered Mikan's room a hallway led you to a spacious living room with couches facing a flat screen T.V. Besides the living room is an island separating the kitchen fully equipped with all the utensils needed for cooking. To the right of the living room was a large bathroom with both a shower and a tub. To the left was Mikan's bedroom which had marvelous French doors which led to a balcony with a breath taking view of the rows of Sakura trees and of the high school building in the distance. To the left of the living room is Mikan's bedroom which had a king sized bed and her own personal bathroom equipped with yet another shower and bath. Besides that a walk in closet already stocked with her uniforms for the school year. To the left of that against the wall was a dresser with a large mirror. "Oh my god you even have a kitchen!" Anna squealed.

Mikan smiled, "This room is crazy."
"Special star students have it good." Nonoko said looking at her bathroom, "I wonder what kind of meals you get as well."
"My mouth is watering just thinking about it." Mikan said laughing.

Hotaru sat on the couch and flipped on the T.V. "This T.V. is top quality as well."
Mikan nodded her head. "We should go to Central town this weekend." Anna said, "We can get food and I can cook you something as a welcome party."

Mikan smiled. "That would be awesome!"
Nonoko smiled. "I think there's more than enough couches for us to sleep on."
Mikan frowned. "Sucks I don't have any snacks or anything to eat." Mikan said with a sigh as she opened her fridge to find it empty.

"Why don't you go ask Hyuuga-San?" Anna asked.

Mikan shook her head. "I offended him during class remember?" Mikan said.

Anna nodded her head. Hotaru shrugged. "I have some food in my room, I can have Amanatsu bring it."
"Who's that?" Mikan asked.

"She's a robot that Hotaru-Chan invented." Nonoko said, "Looks almost human."
"That's amazing!" Mikan said.

Hotaru grabbed her cellphone and typed something in and waited. In a matter of minutes there was a knock on the door. Mikan got up from the couch and opened the door to see herself looking into a mirrored reflection. "Eh?" Mikan said shocked.

"Good afternoon, my name is Amanatsu and Hotaru-Sama asked me to bring some things for her." Amanatsu said.

Mikan turned to Hotaru and pointed to Amanatsu. "Why does she look exactly like me?" Mikan asked, "Except you can see the bolts on the sides of her neck."

"The first thing that came to mind when I was building her." Hotaru said.

Mikan smiled. "Hotaru I love you!"
Hotaru rolled her eyes. Amanatsu stepped inside and walked over to Hotaru with the bags of snacks. "Is there anything else that you would like me to get for you Hotaru-Sama?" Amanatsu asked.

Her voice as well was a tad deeper than Mikan's. "No, I think that's it."
Amanatsu bowed and headed to the door. "Eh? You don't want to stay?" Mikan asked.

Amanatsu turned to Mikan and gave her a confused look. "Hotaru-Sama did not order me to stay."
Mikan looked at Hotaru who just shrugged. "Amanatsu would you like to stay?" Hotaru asked.

Amanatsu looked at Hotaru. "I have never been to one of these functions and it has not been in coded in my hard drive how to deal with this situation."

"Why don't you stay? I'm sure you'll have fun…even though you're a robot."

Amanatsu looked at Mikan. "Only if it is okay with Hotaru-Sama."
Everyone turned to Hotaru who nodded her head. "Remember that you have to charge and be ready and in working condition by tomorrow morning."
Amanatsu bowed. "I will Hotaru-Sama, thank you very much."
"You're welcome."
Mikan smiled and clapped her hands. "Now, then let the sleepover begin!"

All the girls cheered.

In Natsume's Room

Natsume opened his balcony door to enter his room. He let out a groan as he dropped his things on his floor and collapsed on his bed. His body ached and he was covered in bruises and cuts. "Damn Persona." Natsume spat as he groaned.

He shut his eyes but they fluttered opened when he could hear the sound of music pounding. Natsume sat up and listened. "What the hell?" He cursed as he got up.
He was well enough to walk normally from his bedroom to the living room to his door and open it. Natsume opened it to see another door across the hall. He growled and could hear voices inside the room. Ryoma looked at his watch to see it was already passed midnight. Natsume rubbed his aching arm and shut his door. "Damn noisy idiots," He muttered as he made his way back to his bedroom, "I swear to god if I figure out who that is I'm going to burn them to a crisp."
Natsume went into his bathroom and stripped his tattered blood stained shirt off to reveal cuts and bruises across his back and chest. Natsume sighed and turned on his shower. He took a quick shower to remove any dirt and dried blood off of his body. He dried himself off and then applied first aid to his wound. Now exhausted and ready to sleep he collapsed once again on his bed and he was fast asleep.

Natsume woke up groggy and the sound of music filled his ears. He looked at his alarm clock four in the morning. Natsume cursed and got off his bed. "I swear to god, I'm going to kill them." Natsume growled.

He left the comfort to have the music shut off. He slammed his fist on the door over and over again agitated. His brow rose when he saw the stupid little girl open the door shocked. She wore a baggy T-shirt and her panties. Natsume glared at her. "Do you know what time it is?" He growled.

Mikan shook her head. She looked away because he was shirtless and Mikan could clearly tell that he was built. "It's too damn early to be having your crappy music on especially loud enough for me to hear it from my room." Natsume said.

"Sorry." Mikan whispered pulling her shirt down so her panties weren't showing.

Natsume groaned and ran his fingers through his hair. "Just turn it down okay? I'm exhausted."
Mikan nodded her head. "Sorry, I didn't mean to bother you."
Natsume looked at her confused. She was acting so much different from during class. "Are you okay?" She asked looking concerned.
Natsume looked down and remembered he was shirtless. "Fine, just turn the crap down." He said and walked back to his room but not without turning and smirking and saying, "You should get a better taste in underwear polka dots."
Mikan was left with her jaw on the ground. She let out a scream and slammed her door shut. "I hate him!" Mikan screamed.
