IMPORTANT NOTE:

I apologize that this chapter was very late. I'm really busy these days. So much things to do; so little time. I barely make time to read all the stories I subscribed to but of course I still can. I try to review each one of them. It's a good thing I'm a fast reader. Anyway, please wait patiently for the next chapters of all my unfinished stories. Thanks!

I don't own Gakuen Alice and any songs use in this fanfic.

Previous Chapter:

"Hiro?" Mikan said.

"Hmm?" Hiro asked.

"Where is Natsume?" Mikan asked.

"I can't believe that the Mikan I knew was all pretend." Natsume sighed.

He was currently listening to the conversation between the others and Hiro in the Sakura tree. If you're asking how the hell can he hear them well it's because he cast a listening spell on the room so he can hear every little detail.

"I trusted her but I guess she didn't trust me enough to keep her secret." Natsume murmured. He run his hands through his hair in frustration.

"Do you think I'm pathetic Rouge?" Natsume asked his dragon who was in his miniature form; sleeping.

"....................."

"I'll take that as a Yes." Natsume sighed.

"Are you alright Natsume?" Ruka asked who was flown by his griffin named: Pyon.

"Yeah." Natsume said.

"You know you should have listened to Mikan-chan's explanation. I'm sure you'll understand." Ruka said.

"I did listen." Natsume said.

"I see." Ruka said "You know Natsume don't feel bad about not knowing about the secret. It's not like she meant not to tell you."

"Why are you here Ruka? Aren't you supposed to be inside the hospital right now?" Natsume said.

"You should asked that yourself." Ruka chuckled "Anyway, just try to understand, she had the hardest time than any of us."

"What, you're my mother now?" Natsume sarcastically said.

"Very funny...I don't have any intention on being Aunt Kaoru." Ruka said "Well I have to go. Hotaru is waiting. You know how she is."

"Yeah Yeah go to your "girlfriend" and leave your poor best friend in hell." Natsume said rolling her eyes.

"Okay." Ruka said running off.

"He really took it like I mean it." Natsume thought sweat drop.

"Can't believe that the great Hyuuga Natsume is in desperate need of help." Tsubasa who was sitting on the tree branch just above Natsume said.

"What do you think you're doing shadow?" Natsume asked clearly not in the mood.

"No need to be tense. I'm just here to give you a little advice."

Tsubasa jumped down, and ruffled Natsume's hair much to his annoyance.

"Will you stop that?!" Natsume said slapping his hand away.

"Alright chill!" Tsubasa said sitting beside Natsume.

"You should be the one who understands her the most. You're also from a noble family of magicians. You know the pressure of being one. You heard her didn't you?" Tsubasa paused before continuing once more. "She got her powers sealed I think she would be mock if others found out that she's from the prestigious Sakura Family and she can't even cast a decent spell." Tsubasa said.

For once Natsume looked so shocked at what he heard from Tsubasa. Yes the laid-back Tsubasa, the sempai who is so irresponsible well in Natsume's eyes that is.

"Who are you?" Natsume asked.

"Oh nice comment I'll pretend I didn't hear that. See ya!" with that Tsubasa disappeared without a trace.

"Great first my best friend then that Shadow freak Polka calls her precious sempai. Is everyone trying to make me look guilty here?!" Natsume furiously said.

"You're not guilty. I am." a shadow said.

At first, Natsume was shocked but of course being himself he doesn't show it and quickly noticed the identity of that person.

"You should rest. Polka." Natsume said refusing to look at Mikan's eyes.

"I'm sorry Natsume." Mikan said kneeling then finally hugging him tightly.

"Please forgive me. I promise to make up for it." Mikan said.

"How many?" Natsume asked.

"How many what?" Mikan said releasing him from the hug looking at him straight through his eyes.

"How many kisses did he get?" Natsume asked his eyes were overshadowed by his bangs.

Mikan blushed at the realization of what Natsume meant "Well...I can't re-really say....There were quite a lot..."

Unable to say those words straight.

"Then, you have to be punished..." Natsume said before capturing the brunette to sweet kiss.

Mikan blushed even harder when Natsume let go. "N-Natsume..."

"Every kiss that your stupid cousin will be replaced with my kiss; however some kisses I give is equal to 2 or more kisses that he gave you; for example..." Natsume said before capturing once again her lips for another kiss.

Knowing Natsume, he deepened the kiss by nibbling her lower lip which made her gasp; he slip his tongue inside and deepened the kiss even more; his tongue battling with Mikan's tongue. After a few minutes of kissing, they finally let go; both breathless. Natsume kisses traveled down to Mikan's neck and began nibbling on a sensitive spot he found when he started kissing her neck. This action of course earned a moaned from Mikan.

"Natsume..." Mikan moaned as Natsume continued his actions until

BAKA BAKA BAKA

He was shot by the oh so famous BAKA CANNON Ver. 2000

"Damn you Imai." Natsume growled.

"Tsk Tsk, Mi-chan you should at least get a private room for doing it. Not here where it's open." Hiro teased, a grin plastered on his face.

"Sorry to disappoint you Hyuuga but you can't take her innocence yet." Hiro said.

"Hiro!" Mikan said blushing like a red tomato.

"What?" Natsume asked a faint blush plastered on his face.

"Oh we forgot to tell you that she has to stay virgin until her 15th birthday ceremony where Mi-chan will be finally free!" Hiro explained.

"How come I know this only now?" Natsume said eyeing his girlfriend suspiciously.

"I was going to tell you earlier but everything came up you know." Mikan said.

"Hmmmm..." Natsume said.

"Of course you can steal her innocence all though she will never be free from my grasp." Hiro said smirking annoying Natsume.

"Damn." Natsume cursed.

"Ru-chan we should go by now. I should contact the Sakura Family and tell them that we have to do the ceremony here in a month and a half." Hiro said.

"Bye!" Hiro gestured.

"Don't dare 'mark' that BAKA yet. She's still young idiot." Hotaru said before leaving with Hiro.

"Next time tell me all those important things about you." Natsume said before walking towards the newly repaired dorms.

"Are you mad Natsume?" Mikan said hugging her boyfriend's arm while walking with him.

When Natsume didn't answer Mikan said "Please forgive me. I'll do anything you want."

"Anything? You should be careful or I might not control myself anymore pin you down and kiss you senseless." Natsume said a light blush in his face.

"Pervert……" Mikan said blushing for the millionth time.
