Chapter 2 : Another Natsume's Bestfriend

Mikan is eating her bread while Natsume and Ruka coming into their class with the dark haired girl that she saw this morning. Mikan is starting hiccoughed and yelling with her shocking face. Mikan is pointing the dark haired girl for a few times, then poking Hotaru, panic.

"That—that girl! That was the girl that I've talked you about!" shouted Mikan. Hotaru is looking at the dark haired girl, and she is glaring. She is shaking Mikan's body a few times then start muttering.

"Are you sure~ Baka? Are you sure that was the girl that you've talked about?" Hotaru muttered. Mikan is nodding, feel scared because of Hotaru's cold eyes.

Hotaru is gritting her teeth, shocked. "There's no way… she's that girl anyway…" Hotaru said. Mikan raising her brows.

"That girl? What kind of girl is she?" asked Mikan. "She looks like a nice girl," she continued her words with a smile in her face.

"Yeah, I know. But still, she's—" answered Hotaru, cut off.

"It's so shocking, right? She's coming back after all," said Permy, between Mikan and Hotaru. Mikan is getting confused, then she is looking her class.

Weird. The people is start muttering theirselves. They are looking the dark haired girl with such a strange eyes. But the dark haired girl looks fine beside Natsume's side. They are talking soooo fun.

Mikan knows that there is something weird about this dark haired girl. Her classmates reaction; it is kinda strange.

"What are people talking about? Why are people become so strange like this?" asked Mikan, still confused. Permy noticed her attitude, then she is raising her shoulders.

"I know, I know about that thing in your mind. Well, after all, you were quite late to come into this school, so you don't know anything about Alicia…" said Permy. Mikan is raising her brows, again.

"Alicia, huh? So that's her name?" asked Mikan, sounds interesting. She is watching the dark haired girl with her dazzling eyes.

Hotaru is looking Mikan with her cold eyes, while Permy is taking a deep breath. She is looking Hotaru with I'm-gonna-tell-her-everything look, and Hotaru is nodding.

"She's Alicia Yamada, the idol in this school. She's teachers' golden girl. Every teacher loves her so much. She is so special and everyone treats her carefully. She has 'compellication' alice…" told Permy. Mikan is going to reach her brows again. She doesn't understand about 'compellication alice' part.

"Maybe it's quite same with stealing alice. But overall, it's different. She can learns every alices that she saw or she felt. Of course, she has learnt and known a lot of alices. That's why she's so special; she can does every alices. And of course she has learnt all alices in this school—including you," Permy continued. "Besides she has an extremely rare alice, she's beautiful, kind, cheerful, nice, and so helpful too!"

Mikan is shocked. She can see a pair of dazzling eyes in Permy face when Permy is watching over Alicia. You acted to be a cool watcher but you are admiring her too?! she thought.

Mikan devolving upon Hotaru. "Do you know this Alicia girl, Hotaru?" Mikan asked. Hotaru just reaching her shoulders.

"Well, I don't know about her too much. When I was transferred into this school, she's moving out for something important. Everything that I know is; she has lived in this school since she was a kindergartener. She's so smart, you know," Hotaru answered, still with her cold eyes.

"Then… why do people watching her with strange eyes?" Mikan asked, again. Permy is going to some "sigh" again.

"It's quite hard to explain it to a stupid girl like you, so I'll make it more simple… it's strange for you if you see a friend that moving out from this school is coming back again, right? The rumors is coming over from everywhere; just like why did she coming back to here, and something like that. Besides, everyone wants to know about the accident in the past…" said Permy.

"It's enough," told Natsume, quite loud. Permy has closed her mouth, looks scared. Mikan is getting angry with Natsume, again.

"What's up to your head again, Natsume?! Permy just told me everything that I wanted to know, and you were screamed at her?!!" screamed Mikan, so loud. Everyone is going silent.

"So you don't need to know everything, and I didn't screamed at her!" answered Natsume, emotionless.

Mikan is getting ready with her arguments, but luckily Alicia is stopping them. "It's enough, Natsume. I know your feelings but it's okay if she wants to know about anything happened in the few years ago. She's a part of this class too, and everyone in this school is my friend. It means, she has right to know everything," said Alicia, so deep and calm. Natsume doesn't say anything again. He's becoming so silent. Ruka is smiling nervously, and Mikan is looking at Alicia; confused.

Even she can stop Natsume's offense!, Mikan thought.

Alicia is walking near Mikan; she's smiling nicely. Mikan goes nervous. Her classmates still keep eyes on her.

"My Gosh, what will Alicia do with Mikan?"

"I'll bet if she's already learnt Mikan's alice."

"I'm glad that Alicia is coming back… but what about the past?"

Mikan's classmates keep murmuring theirselves. While Mikan is getting more nervous when Alicia stand in front of her.

"So this is the unique girl in my oldie class~ the girl who wanted to joining Gakuen Alice, eh? It sounds interesting! I've heard a lot of things from Natsume and Ruka. Nice to meet you, Mikan! I'm Alicia Yamada," Alicia said when she is smiling nicely.

"I-I'm Mikan Sakura—" answered Mikan, still nervous. They are shaking hands, and Alicia still smiling at Mikan.

"Well then, I can see a bunch of questions there in your head. You can ask me some of them if you want to," told Alicia, so nice. Mikan is starting to open her mouth, but Natsume was reached Alicia faster than Mikan.

"I said it's enough. You don't need to talk with a weirdo polka like her. Let's go, Alicia, Ruka. You won't wasting your precisious coming back time with a stupid girl like her, right?" Natsume cut off, then pushing Alicia out from the class. Ruka is going after them. The people still staring at Mikan.

"Huh. Poor you, Stupid! You thought you are the closest girl to Natsume, right? Sorry it's wrong!" yelled Permy, smirking. Mikan is looking her with an OMG-I-just-tried-to-save-you-from-that-boy look.

"What's their relationship, anyway?!" asked Mikan, quite angry with Natsume's attitude.

"Sooooo bad they three are childhood friends!" answered Permy, so happy. Their classmates is getting take a deep breath.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"I'm so glad that Alicia still haven't changed!"

"Yeah, you're right. I thought she'll be a different girl after that accident!"

Their classmates is continue murmuring, but this time with a happy face; not with a strange look anymore.

They are happy, but Mikan is not that happy. How could Natsume become this silly to her? More silly than anyday! And how could Natsume going so well with a girl? Alicia must be a super nice girl if she can gets along with an evil-side-boy like Natsume! Whoaaa~ these things are starting blowing out from Mikan's mind. What will Mikan's relationship with Alicia be? See it in chapter 3!
