Loving has never been that easy… Especially when that person has never felt to be loved.

How Do You Heal a Broken Heart?

By: unnamed cat

Chapter 5: Roasted

™-----------------------------------------------------------------™

"You're going down buster!"

Natsume rushed to Mikan's side and punched Ryu right on his awfully cute face. (Remember that Ryu was back to his original form) Ruka who was motioning for the mice to surround the now helpless Ryu walked towards Hotaru. Hotaru went to Mikan's side and let her drink a pill. This was the antidote for the pill she drank earlier. Natsume punched Ryu so hard he fell flat on the floor. Mikan rushed to Natsume. She now wears Ruka's polo shirt which he removed earlier.

"Want to burn?" Natsume asked Ryu.

"Just get on with it Natsume, I still have an invention to finish. I want some marshmallows." Hotaru said.

Ryu stood up and punched Natsume's stomach. He let out a moan. He punched Ryu back. He burned Ryu's left arm.

"Ahhh!"

"Natsume that's enough!" Mikan shouted.

"It ain't enough for what he did to you!" he raised his hand to punch Ryu once more.

"I said that's enough!" he let go of Ryu and turned back to Mikan.

"Get him up." Mikan said still trying to sound strong.

"As you wish." Natsume and Ruka held Ryu up.

Mikan slapped him.

"That's for bringing me here to do THIS!"

She slapped him again.

"That's for hurting Natsume!"

She slapped him once more.

"That's for playing with my memories! And for making me love you unexpectedly!"

Natsume jerked at this.

'She loved him?!' he thought. His heart hurt. It hurts more than the physical injury he had.

"I despise you! And to clear things out, I think the love I tried to give you was only because you had Natsume's resemblance. And that's about it." And with that she rushed to Hotaru.

"What should we do to him?" Ruka asked.

"I'll report what happened and request for assistance right now." Hotaru said as she rushed to the phone beside the bed.

She saw Mikan's purse and took hold of it. Something fell and she picked it up. She saw Natsume's photo. The photo Mikan took when Natsume was smiling at the gift she (Mikan) gave him.

After the call, she handed Natsume the said photo and dragged Ruka out of the room because all the other faculty members already arrived.

Natsume jumped out of the window and went to the Sakura tree he always thinks thoughts of.

'She kept it. She did.' He thought.

He sat down and fell asleep.

™--------------------------------------------------------------™

'Darn it! Why did this have to happen to me?' Mikan was so angry to herself.

She hadn't come out of her room for 3 days straight. All her friends were worried about her, especially Natsume. She hadn't eaten a thing.

"Mikan, please come out already." Yuu was begging her.

"No I won't so leave me alone!" Mikan shouted back.

"You baka! Come out you've caused too much trouble already!" Hotaru was as cold as ever.

She pulled a big mallet out of no where and slapped the door of Mikan's room. The door flew open.

"I should have done that days ago." She whispered.

"Invention no. 607 The Idiot's Door Opener. Used for opening an idiot's door, namely Mikan's door."

Mikan jumped out of her window the moment she heard the door burst open.

"Mikan! She escaped again." Yuu shouted in dismay.

"Don't worry, someone's after her already." Hotaru turned her back and threw a lasso at Ruka. It gripped on his neck as if he was a dog.

"Invention no. 618 The Animal Catcher. Used for catching or having a grip of an animal or a person, this can be used on Ruka."

"IMAI!! Let go of me!" Ruka shouted.

"Come down little puppy. I won't bite. Nogi! Sit!" Hotaru playfully said as she dragged him out of Mikan's room.

™-----------------------------------------------------------------™

'Why am I running?' Mikan asked herself.

She ran faster towards the tree. The tree she used to cry on ever since he left. She sat down and cried once more. Suddenly the breeze became colder and she hugged her knees to herself. She was wearing her nighties so it was really cold. She heard footsteps but she didn't care. She though her mind was playing games with her again.

"Here wear this." A tall figure gave her a jacket. The same jacket she wore when the first day of snow came in Alice Academy, the day before he left her.

"Natsume?" she whispered.

"Why are you here? Wearing that?!" Natsume pointed at her nighties.

She tapped the sit beside her and Natsume bent down and sat. She tugged his right arm.

"Tell me, where were you when I needed you most?" Mikan whispered.

'Coz you… Left me just when I needed you most…

(A line from a song I knew…)

"I was there. I never left you." Natsume whispered back.

"How can you lie at a time like this?" Mikan accused him.

"I'm not lying I was just waiting for you to call out my name." Natsume stood up and turn back.

"Wait don't' leave me here." Mikan tugged the sleeve of his shirt.

"Why? Did you call out my name?" Natsume whispered.

"Natsume…" Mikan said as she hugged him from behind. "Don't ever try to escape without me ever again."

Natsume held her hand and faced her. He carried her as if she was his bride.

"Let's stay like this for a while. Is that fine with you?" Natsume whispered.

"I'd love to." Mikan leaned her head on his shoulders.

After 5 whole years, this was the first time she felt ever so contented.

"I really love the way you would hold me…"
