The Dare

Chapter 6:

The Teardrop

That morning, well of course it was already Tuesday, Sumire arrived at the classroom with a grimace on her face while the other fangirls were still sobbing and crying about the fact that Mikan and Natsume were dating.

"Sumire-chan? –sniff sniff- How- how come you're happy?" Asked a friend of Sumire while wiping her tears.

Sumire winked at her and went to the middle of the classroom, "All fangirls of Natsume and Ruka, proceed to my bedroom, have a good news for you"

All fangirls felt confused but followed what their leader said, and in a minute, everyone was already in the dormitory, in Sumire's room. (fast one)

Sumire sat on her bed gracefully and smiled at them. "So what's the good news Sumrie-chan?" Asked a fangirl.

Sumire looked around the room, "Everything was all a dare"

"Huh?"

Sumire stood up, "Mikan and Natsume, they're dating right? Well… It wouldn't happen if it wasn't all a dare… Natsume was dared by Ruka to date Mikan, and in the end, he must tell Mikan he loves her..!"

The fangirls got their hanky and cried aloud, "WAHHH!"

"Wake up stupid heads! Don't you guys understand me? Ugh!" Sumire said while poking some of the girls' forehead.

"What's – what's to be happy about Sumire-chan? He's going to tell her he loves her! Waaaaaaaaaah!" one of the fangirls cried.

"Use your coconut girls, yes, he told her he loves her- "

"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" Cried the others.

"But … it was just because of a dare, it means it isn't true, well, Mikan thinks it is but.. wait till we tell her it isn't."

The fangirls suddenly stopped crying and looked at Sumire with big interesting eyes, they wiped their tears and sat straight, "What do you mean when you said 'wait till WE tell her it isnt' Sumire-sama?" Asked a fangirl while grinning a little.

"It means that… we'll break Mikan's heart, think about it, she doesn't know about the dare right? She thinks its all true, about the dating thing… Get me?"

A fangirl faked a laugh, "And where did you get this? This news that it was just a dare huh Sumire-chan?"

"I got it from the gang, the troop of Natsume, I was passing by the corridor when I heard them, anymore comments or questions?"

The fangirls didn't answer, they were too busy having fun and talking about it, about how Mikan will react, how they will break Mikan's heart.. etc…

That day, Sumire and the other fangirls skipped classes, but when dismissal came, they went quickly there, when they saw Mikan alone in the hallway, they surrounded her.

"Wha- DOUSHITE!" Asked Mikan while turning.

"Ha! We need to talk to you" Sumire exclaimed.

"Talk to me about what!"

The fangirls looked at each other.

This time, some students were passing by and they saw the crowd (fangirls and mikan) they decided to stay and see what's going to happen, after about several minutes, a very large crowd was gathered in the hall.

"So you want to ask me about something Sumire-chan?" Asked Mikan again, she was getting annoyed and impatient already.

"Were you just boasting Mikan-chan? Well let's see who'll be boasting after this happens."

"Since when did you and Natsume started dating?" Asked a fangirl.

Mikan felt surprised at the question, "5 days ago, why?"

"Hmmph! Nothing, do you believe that he loves you?" Asked another one.

"Of course I do, you jealous girls? Well if you are, don't get mad at me, it wasn't my fault that he likes me!" Boasted Mikan, not noticing she was already boasting.

The other fangirls clenched their fist, they hate Mikan, but Sumire for some reason, didn't get mad, she wasn't even irritated, she let out a laugh, "You think that's true huh! It was just a dare Mikan, Natsume was just dared by his friends to date you"

Mikan felt her heart ache but she decided to fight back, "Prove it! I believe in my love!"

In that very moment, Natsume and the gang happened to pass by the crowd, well of course, as the popular boys, they decided to look, or maybe, join. They got in the way and went in the middle of the crowd, where Mikan, Sumire and the other fangirls were.

Mikan saw Natsume, she hugged him, "Natsume-kun!"

The other friends of Natsume looked at Mikan with a werid expression..

"She thinks its true huh?" Whispered Ruka to his friends.

"Yep.. I think so, stupid idiot" Answered one.

"Mikan! Here he is! Let's ask him shall we?" Sumire shouted to let the whole crowd hear.

Mikan laughed and stared at Sumire, "Hmmn? Let's see"

Natsume looked at the two girls, "Wazzup?"

Mikan gave Natsume a peck on the cheek, Natsume felt happy about it but of course, with his friends around, he must act cool, the dare's finished, he must be like his normal self now so he pushed Mikan a little, "idiot, don't do that"

Mikan felt afraid, I- I thought he loves me? Why did he call me idiot? Why wasn't he sweet? "Na- Natsume.."

"What's going on?" Enquired Natsume.

"Natsume! Prove to them that what you told me was true! That you really love me! That it wasn't all a dare! Tell them please!" Mikan begged while putting her hands around Natsume.

Natsume's cool expression faded, he bit his tongue, there was something there inside, It's all a dare Mikan.. sorry…. But.. why do I feel like this? No, my .. His mind wanted to say sorry and yes to Mikan but his heart disagrees, there was more than that, he even forgot that he was doing a dare.

Natsume was speechless, he noticed Sumire look at him.

"What Natsume? Cannot answer because what I said was true?"

"Natsume-kun! Please! Tell them it is true! That you really- "

"Mikan, sorry… I- it was all a – " Why do I feel this way? I feel as if I want to hug her, to tell everyone that it wasn't true, I never felt this way, what's this! What's happenig? "it- was- wa- was… all a dare Mikan Sakura.. sorry…"

Mikan froze, his heart was now a blackhole, she opened her mouth but no words came, her vision was getting blurred, the happiness in her mind vanished and everything was dark, she felt hurt, no, more than hurt. She closed her eyes and …

"OUCH!" Natsume shouted.

Mikan slapped him, "How dare you! HOW DARE YOU! Did you have fun Natsume huh? Was it fun? Well maybe for you it was, afterall, it was all a dare! Oh how I wish you had! You must be very satisfied by now because if not, curse you, don't repeat this again Natsume! Not just to me! To all of the girls!"

"Mikan, I'm-"

"No Natsume, don't say you're sorry, why? Did you feel sorry for me when you were playing with me for the past few days huh? Did you huh!"

"It was a –"

"Yes,I know it was a dare! I know it is but still! Why did you accept it if you know that you'll hurt someone huh? Why? Well yes, I may be easy to be played with, I may be an idiot, I may be a stupid girl that thinks like a 5 year old child but still, at least I'm innocent! At least I have a heart which you and your gang doesn't have! I know how to be hurt, I know how it feels! But you? Have you ever felt that feeling huh?"

She slapped him again..

And with that she run away, her hands covering her whole face.

"MI-" Natsume looked at the floor, what Mikan said, it hit him hard, it struck his heart, he looked up again, he cannot see Mikan anymore, he closed his eyes tight, a teardrop fell. I- I cried...w- why does it hurt this much? Why?
