(no people were actually harmed in the making of these review replies)

Monday September 15 6:00pm

Location: Sakura Tree, lip locking *gasp*

"MIKAN!" I heard Sai's voice coming from the nearby sidewalk, it must have startled Natsume also because his lips quickly parted away from mine, however he didn't move away from me, he kept his body nearly touching mine.

"Come here right now!"

Order.

Off I went, pushing Natsume away from me, not bothering to see the expression on his face while doing so. He probably already thought of me as a crazy lunatic anyway. But what did I care?

"What do you want?" I spat, annoyed she ruined the atmosphere.

She looked at me skeptically, her eyes traveling my body up and down.

"Tell me what you think you're doing!"

Uh oh.

"I think I was kissing Natsume." Fell out of my mouth.

"I see that!" She obviously thought I was being sarcastic. Then she got this sudden stupid expression on her face, like she had just figured out the solution to Global Warming. "Tell me Mikan, what did you get on your last math test."

What was she trying to pull on me? "56%" I spat out anyways.

Her eyebrow furrowed even deeper, and a mischievous grin made it's way on her face.

I felt a sudden presence behind me, and knew that now Natsume was watching. This was bad, I needed to get out.

"I have to go." I took three steps.

"Stop." She commanded.

I stopped.

"Turn around and come back here."

I did as ordered. "What?"

"Pat your head." No sooner were the words spoken and I had my hand on my hand patting away.

"Hope on one foot, Mikan." Up and down, up and down. It's actually difficult to pat your head and hop at the same time.

"Stop," Once again, I stopped.

"Sai," I said through gritted teeth, I could only imagine what Natsume was thinking, "stop it."

"You," She laughed, pointing at me, "can't make me do anything, however I can make you...somersault."

I didn't even think I could somersault, but I guess using the curse to do so is kind of cheating.

"Poor little Mikan, has to do what she's told! And you actually thought you had a chance with the prince." She scoffed at me, and pushed me to the ground, the pavement scratched my bare knees. I felt tears welling up in my eyes.

"I didn't think I had anything with Natsume." I snapped up at her.

She snorted, "Oh please, just admit your feelings for him already. It's so obvious."

There it was, I didn't know how I felt about him, but my curse did.

"I'm in love with Natsume - kun." I slapped my hands over my mouth, eyes wide, tears spilling over, and with that Sai was gone, laughing at me, stripping me bare. I was crying wildly seconds later, taking in huge gasps of air, I couldn't breathe, I didn't even know if Natsume was still behind me.

I took the courage to look behind me, and there he was, starring at me, his eyes narrowed, eyebrows pinches together, breathing heavily. I didn't know what he was thinking, I couldn't tell is he was mad at me, or disgusted with me, probably both.

"Natsume," I stopped for a second, I could barely breath let alone talk, "I." I didn't actually know what to say, he didn't move his eyes away from me, he was expecting me to explain something, I didn't blame him, he deserved an explanation, however I don't know how to explain this to him. And then there was the whole me having just confessed my love for him thing.

To top happy land off, it started raining, gross, how ironic. Girl bawling her eyes out, scraped up, boy angry and silent, it's dark, it's rainy, it's depressing! I hate irony, actually I don't even know if this is irony, it's actually more cliche, but that's even worse.

I picked myself off the ground, hoping to walk away with as much dignity as a girl could after that episode, but that all came crashing down when he grabbed my wrist, pulling me towards him.

"What was all that about?" He asked, finally breaking the silence. I let out a sigh of relief, he didn't sound mad, just confused.

I tried my best not to make eye contact. "I can't tell you." I tried to pull away, but didn't succeed.

His grip tightened, along with his jaw. "Why not?" Okay now he was mad.

I kissed him, yep, didn't know what else to do, it was the only thing that would either make him shut up so he'd stop asking questions, or push me away so I could run away.

But he decided to chose the first one, which surprised me quite a bit, his hand left my wrist to support my back as his other arm wrapped around my waist. I could have taken the chance right there to bolt, while he was off his guard because after all that's why I kissed him in the first place, but instead I found my arms wrapped around his neck. Our lips weren't still this time, oh no far from it, they moved continuously around, quite easily may I add due to the rain. He pulled me closer when he felt me shiver, his hands left my back and waist to harshly cup my chin, which he stroked gently. My hands wandered up to his head, I madly ran my fingers through his hair, it was about there that I was almost positive he could feel my heart throbbing against my chest.

And right there, making out in the pouring rain, was the perfect cliche, and I would never forget it.

He was the one that broke the kiss, I felt like an idiot as he watched me gasping for air, while he didn't even seem like he breathed at all.

"I, umm."

"Little girls shouldn't kiss like that, Polka." He turned away and left.

Monday September 15 7:00pm

Location: My dorm.

Hotaru, is so pissed off at Sai.

"I can not believe that little slu-" She was working away on an invention, I was scared to know what it was, I knew it had something to do with Sai. "Anyways, what did you tell Hyuuga?"

"Nothing." I said, I had sort of casually left out the fact that I told him I was in love with him, and also the kissing part too.

She dropped what she was doing and glared at me, "You're hiding something from me."

"No I'm not!"

"Mikan, tell the truth."

Darn, she got me, stupid Hotaru. So I had to tell her everything, not like I really minded, I always told her everything that happened, but sometimes I'm just tired of feeling like she's more of my mom then my best friend.

"Wow." Was all she could say, until she started laughing.

"Are you alright Hotaru?"

"I just can't imagine you doing a somersault." I sweatdropped.

"Gee thanks."

"I have some good news."

"What is it?" I asked.

"Gakuen Alice is holding a mystical creatures carnival, and this year there's going to be-"

"Fairys!" I finished the sentence for her, this was perfect, if we could catch Maki in time I might be able to convince her to left the gift.

Yeah kind of cheesy, but I'm tired so oh well. LOL my apologies for it being short, review please ^_^
