Chapter 3
Last time…
Giggling slightly, Mikan's lips quivered as more tears fell as the next wave of reminiscence hit her…

Flashback
A cute fourteen year old couple was sitting under their precious Sakura tree. It was night time but the darkness enveloping them did not seem to matter.
"Natsu… Are you feeling better? Does your wound still hurt? You really should head to the hospital you know?"
Mikan pooped her head up from her boyfriend's shoulder, gazing at his softly lighted face. [By the moon-light
Pressing a finger to her lips, Natsume pulled her head down onto his shoulder again. He then rested his chin on the top of his girlfriend's head. He felt her snuggling into his frame as he sighed in contentment.
He had just returned from a highly dangerous mission whereby even he, the skilled Kuro Neko, had gotten himself multiple injuries, some of it superficial ones. The other wounds were deep and he had lost quite some blood.
"Hush my tangerine. Let me just rest like this. I'll be fine. Don't worry."
Upon hearing his comforting words, tears started streaming down Mikan's face. She felt so useless. She despite her alice, she still couldn't be of any help to protect the ones dearest to her.
Feeling his shirt dampening, Natsume cupped Mikan's chin and made her look up at him. She tried avoiding his gaze but to no avail. Gently, he bent down to her face and kissed away her tears. Instinctively, her hand went up to hold the hand which was now cupping her tear-stained cheeks.
Without any words, Natsume picked her up and placed his arms over her shoulders. He pulled her closer to his body when Mikan's hand went up to meet his own, which was slung over her body. They then slowly proceeded to the dormitories.
Along the way, none of them spoke. They were just enjoying each others' presence and company until they reached the door of Natsume's room.
He held onto Mikan's shoulders and slowly turned her around to face him. Removing one hand from her shoulders, it went up to pull her chin towards his face.
It was initially a gentle kiss until Mikan started to cry again. Agitated by her tears, Natsume probed deeper, turning the loving kiss into a rough and hungry one. As they were kissing, he opened the door and made Mikan back into his room.
Mikan felt so bad. Her Kuro Neko was hurting but she could do nothing to help ease his pain. All she could do now is to let Natsume kiss her and perhaps, the kiss might be of comfort to him. Feeling Natsume step forward, she stepped back until she collapsed on his bed.
Her eyes widened as she felt his hand slipping under her shirt.
As if feeling her discomfort, Natsume nibbled on her earlobe, eliciting a soft moan from her.
"Just follow my lead. Don't be scared. I will not hurt you. Please Mikan. Just don't push me away."
Hearing the pain in his voice, she gasped and her hands went up to stroke his cheeks.
"You are not hurting are you? Have your wounds reopened? Oh my Jujube. If only I could ease your pain and discomfort. It hurts a lot ne?"
Natsume's eyes were glazed he needed her so much.
He bent down and claimed her lips again.
"It's fine Mikan. It doesn't hurt. As long as you are here…"
They closed their eyes in pleasure, welcoming the loving sin they had committed that night.
When they woke up, the sun was about mid-way through the sky. The couple snuggled closer to each other. Mikan's head was lying against Natsume's bare chest as they held onto each other so tightly as if they were Siamese twins. They were euphoric and contented. Their souls had finally rejoined as the one which God had created it to be.
Against the tip of her head, Natsume whispered so softly that only she can hear.
"I swear and pledge on my body, heart and soul that I would love and protect you for ever. I will always be here when you need me and I will always be by your side. Nothing shall tear us apart my dear… Nothing at all… I will never leave you… Ever…"

End of flashback
More tears spilled from her swollen eyes.
"You already have Natsu… You already have…"
