Chapter two: a chaos

Mikan is an early bird. When she woke up the next morning, she felt so warm. She wanted to snuggle closer to the source of the heat, but something occurred to her. She snapped open her eyes and saw a tough chest in front of her. She could even hear the peaceful breathing of the person. She panicked. It was Natsume, hugging her, his hands on her waist and facing her.

Realizing this, she screamed her lungs out. "BAKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!"

Natsume, who was still dizzy opened his eyes. "Shut up you idiot. I'm trying to sleep here,"

"What do you think you're doing, you PERVERT?" Mikan asked angrily, jumping out of bed.

"I did nothing wrong, polka!" Natsume said.

"Nothing wrong? Then why are you in my room? Answer me!" Mikan shouted.

"In YOUR room? Excuse me, but this is MY room. Get it?" Natsume sneered.

Mikan looked around her. And it was Natsume's room, not hers. She became as white as paper.

Grandpa, who had heard Mikan's scream came rushing into Natsume's room.

"Mikan, what's wrong?" Grandpa asked her.

"No..nothing's wrong Grandpa," Mikan said while blushing madly. "I was just waking this idiot up," Mikan said and hurriedly went out of the room to wash, change her clothes, feed the rabbits and prepare breakfast.

At the rabbits barn,

'Why was I inside Natsume's room? I don't get it. When did I get into his room? I can't remember,' Mikan thought to herself. 'Every second I thought about this, my head go spinning faster and faster.'

She tried to remember what happened last night. And it struck her.

Flashback

Mikan's POV

"ACHOOO!!!" Natsume sneezed.

Shocked, I turned around, and found myself face-to-face with the one and only, Natsume Hyuuga, the pervert.

"What do you want?" I asked him in a bored tone.

"I need a glass of milk," he answered.

"OK. I'll get the milk for you," I walked to the fridge and searched for the milk.

When I found the milk, I gave it to Natsume. Natsume drank the milk in an instant.

He handed back the empty glass of milk to me, and walk out of the kitchen towards his bedroom.

"Well, at least you could say thanks to me," I said. Natsume stopped.

"Tch. Whatever, polka dots," is Natsume's answer, and head back towards his room.

I just watch his retreating figure before I continued to wash the dishes. Grandpa then came in from the back door.

"Kombangwa, Jii-chan," I greeted Grandpa.

"Kombangwa Mikan," Grandpa said and planted a kiss on my forehead. "Mikan, I heard about you and the boy. I just want to say that whatever happens, you must try to be nice with him,"

"But-"

"No more buts Mikan. They are our visitors and they paid us to stay here. I want you to be nice with them, whether you like it or not. You understand me Mikan?"

"Hai! I'll try to be nice with them, especially the pervert,"

"OK then. I guess I better go to bed now. You should also go to bed. We've got an early day tomorrow. Oyasumi Mikan,"

"Oyasumi Jii-chan,"

Grandpa went into his room to rest. I continued my job to wash the dishes which was almost done. Then I finished my job of cleaning the dishes. I went upstairs to my room. After I had changed my clothes into night-things, I went to the bathroom to brush my teeth. I was very sleepy that I didn't even notice that I went into Natsume's room instead of mine. I walked to the bed and fell asleep beside Natsume as soon as my head touches the pillow. Then my world is filled with darkness.

End of flashback

I gasped when I remembered what had happen. 'Now I wish that I could forget that. I do not know how I feel right now. It's all mixed up.' Mikan thought to herself. "First I feel mad at him. And I feel embarrassed because I slept with a stranger. And the weird thing is, I love to be by his side, he was so warm, eventhough he's cold towards me," I said. Then I laughed at myself for being so silly and making a big deal about this. "I MUST try to forget it. He's just- I don't know what to say about him (sigh)."

"Well, I guess I should go now. I must prepare the breakfast," I said and skipped towards the house.

End of Mikan's POV

While the brunette skipped happily towards the house, a raven-haired boy was sitting on one of the branches of a sakura tree, watching her. He had his manga in his hands. He had been reading the manga before his attention moved towards the brunette. Now that Mikan had slipped into the house, he put his manga on his face, trying to sleep because his sleep was disturbed by the brunette earlier that morning.

Not long, Natsume fell asleep on the tree branch. Meanwhile, Mikan, who had finished preparing breakfast, was searching for Natsume because it is time for breakfast.

"NATSUME!!! Natsume!! Where are you?" Mikan shouted, unable to find Natsume. She searched everywhere for him, until she spotted him sleeping on the sakura tree branch. He was so deep in his sleep that he didn't hear Mikan's shouts calling for him. Even if he hears it, he would just ignore it.

So Mikan climbed the tree with ease. She sat on the branch nearest to Natsume. She reached out her hands and took his manga away from his face. She then picked up a twig and started to tickle the sleeping Natsume.

Natsume awoke with a start. He opened his eyes and saw the lovely brunette smiling while tickling him. He felt happy inside, but his face remains expressionless.

'This girl is different than any other girl. She is so carefree and she always smiles whatever happens. I bet she had already forgotten what happened last night.' Natsume thought.

"Come on, Natsume. Breakfast is ready. Let's eat," Mikan said and jump down the tree and of course, Natsume saw her underwear. He also jumped down the tree and whispered to her, "So today is strawberries, ehh, I think that you should stop wearing printed underwear. You are childish," Natsume then walked away. Mikan stood there, dumbfounded to hear that from Natsume.

"You HENTAIIII!!!!!" Mikan shouted. Then, realizing that Natsume had already left her standing there, she ran towards Natsume. "Natsume, wait for me!" Since she is a good runner, she caught up with Natsume shortly. They went into the house together.

So they had their simple, farm-style breakfast. After breakfast, Mikan cleaned the house and went milking the cows. Meanwhile, Natsume went wondering around the farm, again, because he didn't finish his tour yesterday, so he thought to continue today.

Mikan was busy milking the cows when she heard someone calling her. It was her Grandpa. So she walked up to her Grandpa.

"Why Jii-chan? Something's wrong?" Mikan asked, worriedly.

"There's someone who wanted to see you. She is at the living room," Grandpa answered.

"Who is it, Jii-chan?"

"She said that she was your friend. Hayaku, she has been waiting for you for quite a long time now. Hurry!"

"Okey. I'll be going now. I'll be back," Mikan said and ran towards the house.

When she went to the living room, she was shocked to see a raven-haired and amethyst-eyed girl sitting on the couch. She was so shocked to see her that she just stood there, watching her. Then she snapped back to reality, only to realize that the girl was Hotaru, her best friend. Tears fell down her cheeks and she was sobbing. She ran towards the raven-haired girl and tried to hug her, but Hotaru had already made her move to avoid her. Mikan continued chasing her best friend to hug her. (imagine a chibi Mikan chasing a chibi Hotaru around the house)

"Get away from me, you freak!" Hotaru said, trying to avoid her hug-lover friend.

"Come on now, Hotaru, just let me hug you!" Mikan said, still trying to hug her best friend.

"Give me three reasons why should I let you hug me," Hotaru said coldly.

"First, you are my best friend. Second, I haven't see you for a long time. Third, I miss you. Enough?" Mikan answered and asked Hotaru.

Hotaru stopped and said,"ok, you can hug me now," Mikan hug her. She whispered to her, "I miss you too," and tighten her embrace.

"Ohh Hotaru, I miss you so much. It's been a long time since I've seen you," Mikan said, still not letting go of her friend. Tears started to roll down her cheeks. Hotaru felt the tears dripping on her shoulders.

"Didn't I tell you? You look 10 times uglier when you cry. So please don't cry. I hate it when you cry, Mikan," Hotaru said, comforting her friend.

"I know that, but, 6 months without you, and now seeing you again, makes me happy and that's why I cried. I cried because I'm so happy that you are back. Back to me," Mikan said, trying her best to stop the tears.

"I'm okey now," Mikan said. "Sit down; I'll make you some tea. You like it less sugar, right?" Mikan asked and smiled.

"Yup, and hurry up. I'm thirsty," Hotaru ordered Mikan. She's back to her normal self.

Mikan went into the kitchen to make tea for Hotaru. Hotaru sat on the couch, looking like a big boss. Not long, Mikan came back carrying a tray of tea and a plate of biscuit. They talked about their lives for the past 6 months. They had a lot of story-telling to do.

It is already afternoon, so Mikan had to prepare lunch and feed the rabbits. "Hotaru, it's already afternoon and I need to prepare lunch. Would you help me?" Mikan asked.

"No I won't. But I'll stay for lunch today. So prepare me some bacon will you?" Hotaru ordered.

"Since you just came back, then I'll prepare it for you. But only this once," Mikan said and went into the kitchen, followed by Hotaru. While Mikan was preparing lunch, Hotaru was busy reading her newly bought book at the table.

When Mikan had finished, she saw that Hotaru had fallen asleep, face on the table. So Mikan shook Hotaru's shoulder to wake her up. Then, after quite a long time, Hotaru finally open her eyes.

"Why did you woke me up? I'm sleepy, you know," Hotaru said lazily.

"Well, I was just wondering if you want to come with me to feed the rabbits. Do you want to come with me?" Mikan said.

"No, I rather not go. I want to continue my afternoon nap. Go by yourself," Hotaru replied.

"Well, okey then. I'll see you later. Ja ne," Mikan said and waved goodbye.

So Mikan walked to the rabbits' barn and feed them.

Meanwhile, Hotaru went out to the living room because she wants to sit down on the comfortable couch. Natsume, who had nothing to do, went into the house because he was bored. When he stepped into the house, he was dead shocked to see a raven-haired girl sitting on the couch. Hotaru, who was lying comfortably on the couch quickly stood up. She eyed Natsume with curiosity. 'Who is this guy? What is he doing here?' Hotaru thought.

"Who are you? What are you doing here? Answer me!" Finally Hotaru managed to ask that questions.

"And who are you and what are you doing here?" Natsume asked Hotaru.

"I won't tell you unless you tell me yours first," Hotaru said.

"And why would I do that?" Natsume asked.

"Because I asked you first," Hotaru answered.

"Fine. Hyuuga Natsume, a visitor." Natsume said bitterly.

"Oh, I'm Imai Hotaru, Mikan's friend."

"Tch. Whatever," Natsume said and he left, leaving Hotaru by herself again.

Then, Mikan came back from feeding the rabbits, yelling loudly, "Hotaruuuuuuuu!!!!!!! I'm back!!!!" She then tried again to hug her best friend, only to be hit by the…

BAKA BAKA BAKA

…baka gun. She fell down anime style.

"What was that for?" Mikan asked while rubbing her forehead.
"For being loud and noisy and trying to hug me," Hotaru answered coldly.

"You meanie. You don't have to hit me that hard. "What was that thing you hit me?" Mikan asked out of curiosity.

"Invention no. 56. The baka gun. Can be used to hit a baka like you. It has been upgraded. You want to try it again?" Hotaru asked.

"N-no thanks. I rather not," Mikan said, sweatdropped.

The door was opened and reveals three persons. They were Grandpa and Mr. and Mrs. Hyuuga. Mrs. Hyuuga spotted Hotaru standing next to Mikan. "Konichiwa Mikan and who's this?" she asked.

"Oh, this is my best friend, Imai Hotaru. She just arrived today. Hotaru, this is Mrs. Hyuuga and that person over there is Mr.Hyuuga. And they have a son, Natsume." Mikan said. "Where is Natsume? I better find him or he'll miss lunch. He must be outside. I'll find him. You guys go ahead. Natsume and I will join you later," With that she went outside, looking for Natsume. She found him on the sakura tree. The exact branch he had sat that morning.

"NATSUME!!!" Mikan shouted.

"What is it Strawberries?" Natsume asked.

"Natsume, come on. Lunch. Everybody is waiting for us. A 'kriuuk' sound was heard. That came from Mikan's stomach.

"Come on Natsume. I'm hungry," Mikan pleaded Natsume.

"Tch. Whatever," Natsume replied and jumped off the tree. They walked together, just like that morning.

They went into the kitchen. Seeing Hotaru had already sat there, she said loudly, "Hotaru, this is Hyuuga Natsume. He'll be staying here for a couple of weeks,"

"No need to introduce us. We already met," Hotaru said and send Natsume a death glare.

"Really? When was it?" Mikan asked.

"Just now," Hotaru said. Everybody sweatdropped.

"Well, let's eat our lunch before it gets cold," Grandpa said and they all have their lunch together.
