Chapter II – Unexpected Visitor

.

Natsume Hyuuga's POV

We were currently in front of her house. "I'll call you later, okay?" I said to her as I held her both hands.

She smiled at me, caressing my right cheek. "Okay but don't you want to go inside? I'll make you some coffee or hot chocolate if you want." She offered, staring at me.

I smiled a little. "Don't bother. It's getting late and I want you to rest, okay?"

"How can I rest if you're going to call me later?" She teased, giggling.

She's right… that made sense. "Fine, I'm not gonna call you. Happy?" I grumpily answered.

She laughed delightfully. She then shook her head and muttered, "No. I need to hear your voice later… so that I can sleep peacefully."

I smiled, taking her chin with my index finger for her to look at me. "You know what? Our time together is just never quite enough."

She chuckled. She then hugged me and mumbled, "That's true. Even though you annoy me every day…" I looked at her and frowned. I was about to say something but she cut me off by saying "I want to spend every irritating minute, together with you."

I stared at her, and this time, I'm the one who's caressing her face. I knew that this is the perfect moment to have our first kiss. I saw how she closed her eyes and I slowly leaned down to capture her lips, when—

"Bastard, what are you doing to my daughter?" We were both startled, saw an enraged Izumi Yukihira Sakura in front of us, and a giggling Yuka Azumi Sakura behind him.

I slowly released Mikan from my embrace, so that she can explain. "Dad, Natsume's just gonna kiss my cheek. Geez, we always do that everyday!"

Mr. Sakura rolled his eyes. "Do you need to close your eyes if someone's going to kiss your cheek? I don't think so!" He hissed, then shifted his eyes to look at me. "You!" He warned. "Stay away from my daughter!"

"Dad, you need to calm down! You don't need to be an over-protective parent!" Mikan complained anxiously, trying to stop her father from beating me. "Mom! Help me please?"

Mrs. Sakura chuckled, completely enjoying the scene. Talk about sadists. "Alright, Izumi! Mikan's right. You don't have to be so over-protective. Let them talk. And it's not as if we're not like them during our high school days." She said as she winked at me.

Miraculously, Mr. Sakura calmed down. He's really whipped to his wife. "This is your lucky day, mister. If I catch you doing those kinds of things to my daughter again, I swear you're not going to see her ever again!"

Mikan and Mrs. Sakura sweat dropped, not believing his words. Mikan's parents went toward their house, leaving Mikan and I alone.

"I'm sorry for that commotion, Natsume." She apologetically maundered. "I didn't think that he's gonna see us doing that…" She blushed.

I pushed aside her bangs to see her features clearly. "No sweat. Don't think about it." I smiled at her. "Even though I want to stay with you right here, it's getting late… Don't forget to answer my call later, okay?"

"Okay. Take care on your way home, Natsume."

I hugged her for the last time of the day and kissed her cheek.

.

"I just realized that you're the reason why I'm always late at school." She said on the other line and I can feel that she's sticking her tongue out.

"We're sleeping on the same time, idiot. But I'm not late like you." I teased, a small smile playing on my lips.

"So I'm the idiot now?" I know that she's currently pouting her adorable lips. "I'm gonna sleep if you're just gonna tease me."

"Don't forget to dream about me then," I challenged, amused at her silly antics.

She sighed and said, "Reality is better than our dreams, Natsume."

"So you want me to go there? In your room?" I asked smugly.

"It's ten in the evening and you expect me to open my door for you? I don't think so, Natsume."

I chuckled and retorted, "I thought reality is better than our dreams? I'll just have to sneak in to your room then."

"Mou, Stop teasing me already! What I mean is I like to spend my time tomorrow with you too. I'm giving you a portion of my life that I will never get back. Do you know what that means?"

My heart is beating frantically. Is she gonna confess that she loves me? No, she's too dense to realize that.

I shook my head even though she cannot see it. "No. What does that mean?"

"You're one of the important people in my life… And I'm pretty sure that I didn't just meet you for nothing."

Silence.

Me too, Mikan. I really wish that I can tell you my feelings. But I'm scared because there's only one of you.

"Natsume, are you still there?"

"Yes, I'm still here. You must be tired." I sighed and changed the topic. "Let's talk tomorrow, Mikan. I don't want you to be late tomorrow, okay? Good night."

"Okay… Goodnight, Natsume." Is it just me or she sounded so disappointed?

.

Poke. Poke.

I'm a light sleeper so I knew whenever someone's waking me up. I quickly rose up from my bed and saw Yamaguchi-san standing in front of me.

"Natsume-sama, I'm really sorry for waking you up. Someone's waiting for you at the living room." Yamaguchi-san stated as she bowed her head down.

"Who is it?" I asked, but Yamaguchi-san already left the room. I sighed. Who the hell's going to visit me on a bloody Tuesday morning?

I checked the alarm clock beside my bed. Fan-fucking-tastic. 3:57AM?

I quickly put on my shirt, and walked my way towards the living room. When I saw our so-called visitor, my eyes widened.

Expect the unexpected.

"You've gotta be kidding me." Were the only words I could mutter at that moment.

"I'm not. You can completely see me, right?" He smiled and walked towards me. "Long time no see, Natsume. It's been awhile since I've visited Japan, eh?"

"Yeah... You know, it's kinda awkward if I tell you that I've missed you, Ruka."

"It's creepy, not awkward. How's your life? Aunt Kaoru wants to go here too, but too bad, her schedule is so busy right now."

Damn, I'm still sleepy that I can't comprehend what he's talking about. "As much as I wanted to talk to you right now, I still have school to attend tomorrow. You should've called me or something. And I still want to sleep."

"Okay. I need to rest too. I guess I'm going to stay at my room before."

"Every room is available for you, Ruka… but not my room."

"If you say so, master." He laughed and made his way towards the guest room.

.

I was walking my way to the dining room when I saw Ruka, busy playing with Aoi.

"Good morning, Natsume!" Ruka greeted as he smiled at me.

"Nii-chan! Good morning! Look, Ruka-nii's here! Aoi-chan missed Ruka-nii so much!" Aoi said excitedly as she's bouncing up and down, too eager to tell me her news.

"I know, Buriko. Now, you must prepare first before you play with Ruka-nii, okay?" I told her as I ruffled her hair.

She smiled lively at me and said "Okay!"

Yamaguchi-san took her hand and lead her towards the bathroom, leaving Ruka and I alone.

"So, what are you doing here?" I asked him as I took a sip to my coffee.

He sat on the chair in front of me, munching on a piece of bread. "Living in France is so boring! And I wanted to live the Asian way."

I raised a raven brow at him. "It's a miracle that your mom allowed you to go here by yourself. You know what I mean." I stated as I continued to eat my breakfast.

He was still munching on the bread (the same one earlier) when he replied, "Yeah, I was actually surprised too."

"How long are you gonna stay here in Japan?" I couldn't help but ask.

He looked at me and declared, "I'm staying here for good."

I raised a brow, not knowing what he meant. "What do you mean for good?"

"Oh come on, Natsume. It doesn't take a genius to understand what for good means," He grinned. He then took a sip on his mango juice.

"It means that I'm enrolling at Gakuen Alice this school year. It might be the second semester, but it's okay, I've already informed the academy about it. Plus, that's the reason I told my mother why I want to go to Japan."

I shrugged, "Whatever."

He smiled. "You're still the same as ever, Natsume."

"Hn. I just noticed, where was that disgusting rabbit of yours?"

"He's not disgusting, and he's on his cage. He's still sleeping so I didn't want to disturb him. He's so cute when he's asleep—",I cut him off. I forgot that Ruka's talking too much when it's about his little rabbit.

"I got your point already, Ruka. No need to praise that little rabbit of yours."

I frowned at him when I realized something. "You didn't want to disturb your rabbit but you've disturbed me when I was asleep? So I was that low to your standards, huh?"

"You don't have to be jealous because of a rabbit." He did not just say that. So freaking disgusting!

"Get the hell out of my house."

"I'm just kidding, man! You don't have to be so serious."
