The Heart Breaker
Chapter 7
"A Wolf Till the End of my Days"
#Wolf's Black Kokoro#
The show ended at five p.m and the party will begin at eight p.m so they had three hours to get ready before the Dance starts
"That was insane" Kei gushed as they were walking back to their dorms. The guys agreed with nods
"Yeah totally the best Fest I ever had in here" Aki put his arm on Kei's shoulder and they acted like two drunk idiots after some wild party. The B-dancers just shook their heads at their so called comrades
"Well then see you at the party" and they split.
"Don't you have to get ready?" Tsubasa asked the girls after Kei and the rest left. Misaki whacked him on the head
"Do we look like Luna and Stella to you?" she snapped back
"Yeah only idiots start getting ready at this hour" Anna retorted and as on cue
"Iyan~ I have to get ready" , " I still have to do my hair and make up " , "I want to look very pretty tonight"
"There you go, a living example" Nonoko replied in a bored way
"I'm happy that I'm going to wear a matching outfit with my Sumi" he hugged her
"What! you are doing that couple stuff crap? that's lame man" Mikan said. The girls giggled
"Ouch you hurt my feelings " Tsubasa grinned cheekily
"We know but we want every guy out there to know that they are already taken" the guys hugged their girls from behind and smirked
"I'm gonna be sick" Mikan said and then suddenly the earth under them began to shake " An earthquake?"
"No don't tell me that it's..." Kitsu began as his eyes were wide open
"Yup it's them again" Yuu whistled " Well then see you later guys, have fun!" they dashed leaving Natsume and Ruka to deal with the fan girls. While Mikan and Hotaru were oblivious to what's going on
"Natsume we have to hide" he nodded, they were about to run but it was too late
"Natsume-sama/Ruka-sama go with me to the dance" , "NO meee" , " No he's going with me" they were already surrounded by a mob of squealing girls. The brunette and the raven lass couldn't take their high voices so Hotau nodded at her best friend
"Shut the Fuck up" Mikan shouted, they obeyed and kept looking at her.
She turned to the lads with the frown never leaving her face "If you two have something to say to these chicks here. Do it in this Fucking moment and Fucking hurry up"
Natsume smirked and flicked her forehead " You curse a lot little girl"
"I don't give a shit" she glared at him, he and Ruka turned to the fan girls
" I'm going with Hotaru," he smiled at Hotaru, then scowled "so drop the idea of me going with one of you"
"B~B~But Ruka-samaa~~" they looked at him with puppy eyes but he glared at them and took Hotaru's hand
"Come on H let's go, we have to practice on that piece " as they passed the fans, she fired her Baka Gun at him
"Who said you can drag me like that Blondy?" she raised her eyebrow
"Geez, can't a day pass without you hitting me with that thing ?" he asked and rubbed his head. And they went away, still quarreling.
There was silence for a moment, the girls followed them with their eyes and a random girl asked " Are they going out ?"
"I wonder, they seem to get along to me" the others nodded unwillingly
"But it can't be. Imai-san isn't interested in that kind of things right?" another one said trying to convince herself and the others too
"Wait I have a feeling we forgot something important" the wind blew
Ping
Ping
Ping
The wind blew again
"NATSUME-SAMA IS STILL FREE" they finally remembered but when they turned around they found no one. AS the girls were busy staring at Hotaru and Ruka, the crimson eyed lad took the chance and grabbed Mikan's hand urging her to follow him
"NATSUME-Samaaa" the fan girls screamed, looking for him
On a Sakura tree were two figures sitting on a thick branch, watching their reactions
"You know they are very stupid" Mikan said to Natsume who sighed
"I know I've been followed by them for my whole life" she chuckled and slapped a hand on his back in a friendly way
"So what're ya gonna wear tonight? you cosplaying as a Barbie doll?" he smirked as she glared at him
"Hell no!" she paused " I'm not going to the dance tonight" she replied as she jumped down
"Why? you have to go Little girl!" he got down too, grabbed her wrist and spun her around. Brown orbs met crimson ones
"Hey what's the big idea?" she retrieved her wrist from his clutch.
"The big idea is you're going to the dance..." he shook her shoulders, back and forth "with me. Or I'll be devoured by fan girls"
"Ok OK! Let's say, I'll be going but what should I wear? I have nothing at all" he smirked as an idea came to his mind
"Then leave it to me, come on" she nodded and followed him
They went to Central Town, with Natsume leading the way. The raven lad stopped at a shop that sells dresses similar to those of the Harajuku girls
"Hey big guy, are you gay?" she asked him after recovering from the shock, he smacked her head
"Hell no, I'm straight. Wait here for me" he went in and she leaned on the wall, her hands crossed behind her head. After five minutes he came back
"That was fast" she scratched her head lazily
"Yosh, let's go little girl. Here's your outfit for the night" she took the bag from his hand "But don't peek at it till you are back at your room"
"Fine! shit you sound like my grandmother" she smirked " But seriously explain what's up with the shop? are you sure you aren't g...?
"You shut the hell up. It's Aoi, she dragged me and Youichi to that shop last week saying she wanted to choose a dress for the Dance, she picked that one but it was too big for her and I thought that it would look good on you" he blushed a little but covered it with his bangs
"Um. Sure, thanks Nat" she punched his shoulder lightly
They took the bus and went back to their dorm " So I'll come and pick you up at eight ok?" he asked
She shrugged "Yeah I guess" he kept staring at her "What?"
"Nothing, just don't you dare ditch me shorty" he pointed a threatening finger at her then ruffled her hair
"Shit! dude I told you stop doing that. You're going to get it" they exchanged a couple of punches and kicks. But Natsume blocked them all
"Told ya you can't beat me" he smirked "Jaa nee"
"Jaa naa " she went to her room, showered and changed her clothes.
"Woow not bad. That idiot knows what to choose, " she looked at her reflection in the mirror and nodded " he says he isn't gay, yup my ass"
She was wearing a Wa Lolita style Kimono colored in black and red and white and had a dragon pattern at the front of the puffed skirt that ended at her knees with long sleeves, she let some bangs fall on her face and put a dragon hair clip and wore her knee-length black boots
As she made her way to the door, she noticed her sword that she used to practice Shinkendo with it inside its scabbard. She lifted it and pulled her Katana out from the saya (scabbard), swayed it to left and right and around her
"Ha!" she took a fighting position "Yapari I'm still good at it" her brown pools shone in satisfaction. She fastened it around her waist and was ready to go
As she opened her door she saw Natsume standing in front wearing a sleeveless shirt with a sleeveless jacket and baggy pants with combat boots, gloves in hand, chains dangling from his pants and had an, almost real, huge Shuriken on his back
He eyed her from head to toe and gave a little smile. "You look like a girl" he blurted out, she shrugged
"Looking like a gal or not. It doesn't matter to me, " she said coolly "but thankx for the compliment?" she was unsure, he wrapped his arm around her in a head lock as they made their way to the hall "What's up with the long face Tangerine? Tonight will be Fun" she smirked
"Ok!Ok! Hey Nat you 100% positive you are not Homo?" his hold on her neck tightened a little
"What was that little girl? I didn't catch it well" he spoke to her as if speaking to a five year old
"Are you a retard? or are you growing old?" she mused playfully
" 'k one more comment and you'll have it"
"You're on bro. But that's if you can catch me first old man" she hit Natsume on the head and made a run for it
"Hey wait up little girl" he followed her. They kept on chasing each other till they arrived at the huge doors of the Dance hall
"Ready little girl?" he asked her with a boyish grin
"You bet big guy" she grinned back. Suddenly Natsume reached his hand and tucked some hair stands behind the brunette's ear, she felt an alien emotion but she dismissed it off
"Better now, let's go" she nodded
When they stepped inside all eyes were on them the girls tried to come near Natsume but with his glare and Mikan's they didn't dare, neither did the guys who saw the Alpha of D.M
Mikan scanned the giant hall it was all white; the decoration, the food, the lights were light blue giving the atmosphere of winter and they even placed four huge fountains in the corners. Not to mention the smoke that came out of no where which gave the spooky Halloween aura
"Leave it to uncle, to plan stuffs like this" she murmured to herself but Natsume heard her
"You said something?" he asked
"I just said leave it to the big dog to came up with crazy thing like this, I mean come on fountains? isn't that a little bit too much?" she came up with an excuse fast
He looked around and raised his shoulders "It's Gakuen Alice so don't expect less. Oh I see the guys, over there" she looked in front and there stood their friends chatting with each other
"Oh look who's fashionably late!" Tsubasa said as he saw the brunette and the raven heading their way
"Oh Mikan you look cute" Nonoko and Anna gushed
"Shit dudettes! don't call me cute" she made a disgusted face, they pouted in a teasing way
"So you really did go for the matching outfits plan didn't ya?" she checked all of them, starting with Sumire and Koko who wore an Aladin/Sinbad inspired outfit, then Misaki and Tsubasa who were a zomby couple, to Anna and Kitsu who were dressed as some online game characters and finally Yuu and Nonoko who were cosplaying as Sherlock and Watson
They nodded with smiles on their faces, she sighed "Ahou janai?"
"Just let them be. Where are Imai and Ruka?" Natsume asked
"Right behind you Nat" Ruka said and tapped Natsume's shoulder. Ruka was wearing a butler black suit with a white glove on the right hand while on the left he drew some random tattoo and had fake fangs, Hotaru was wearing a purple Qi Lolita outfit that finds its inspiration in traditional Chinese fashion with Chinese brocades, mandarin collar and frog closures
"Missed us already ?" the raven smirked
"Don't go gay all over me now Ruka" he punched his shoulder
"Like you're one to talk" Mikan retorted with a smug look
"You still saying that bullshit little girl? I told you it's Aoi who gave me the idea " he pulled on her cheek
"Mikan-nee?" came Aoi's voice she was dressed as an angel while Youichi was a devil
"Oh my! you look so beautiful" she jumped and hugged Mikan as usual
"Thanks Chibiko. But I'm only a full-grown wolf on a full moon after it's over I'll turn back into a cub" she winked as Aoi giggled, it was Mikan's way to say that she was Cinderella for one night but at 12 she'll turn back to her tomboy attire
"What shit are you saying Tangerine?" Natsume crossed his arms behind his head
"None of your damn business Baka" she stuck her tongue at him. And before he could make his come-back, Misaki stopped him
"Ok that's enough guys. Yo gals let's go and dance" the girls cheered, grabbed Mikan along with Aoi and Hotaru and headed to the dance floor
"Hey wait for us" Koko shouted, but they shook their heads
"The first song's for girls only. Sorry boys wait till the nest one" and with that they left
"Hope things turn out to be cool or else I might kill someone tonight" Youichi said as his gaze never left Aoi who was dancing with Mikan on the beats of Chain a Ling for Messy Elliot and tried to imitate her Hip Hop moves.
"You said it Youichi" Ruka agreed with him. The guys waited for the girls till they were done all the while ignoring the stares of the females that surrounded them and kept an eye on the girls, afraid that some guys might approach them
The first song ended and the next one started it was Izza Kizza - They're Everywhere.
All of D.M's faces shone in excitement, they loved that song so they signaled the boys to join them which they were so happy to
Ruka danced with Hotaru while Mikan and Natsume were having their usual quarrels
"Ya sure you can keep up with me old man?" her brown eyes gleamed with mischief and challenge
"Let's see what you got little Tangerine" he flashed her his famous smirk. They danced to the rhythm of the song, the DJ noticed them and smiled
"Yo everybody make some room and let's see what they got." all the teens around them including the gang parted and made a circle leaving Natsume and Mikan in the middle, as cries of exultation arouse
The raven lad took off his jacket along with the Shuriken and threw it at Ruka, who caught it, leaving him only in black sleeveless shirt much to the fan girls' delight and joy. Mikan unfastened her Katana and threw it at Hotaru who shook her head and mouthed "Baka"
Fight, everybody like it
Give it to you man, then I watch you get excited
Take a super model and put her on a diet
She'd be havin' dinner in a den like a lion
Mini mo, mini mighty, flim flim, anybody
bit if she's to skinny, she's no hottie
Who'd every think shed be emo lottie
They went solo with the raven lad and the brunette girl trying to surpass each other by performing some crazy moves, Natsumewith his spins and Mikan's perfect flips. The audience were agitated, those two made it look easy. 'This night can't get any better' they thought as the crowd screamed their lungs out
You know where I'm at (Yeah, I'm right here man)
They met at the middle and Mikan gave him a knowing look that he understood. They danced in sync, never missing one single step or making any mistake. But more importantly -some noticed- they were happy being together(A/N: Their routine was similar to that of Kayla and Jason from SYTYCD)
I know where you at (Yeah, you're right there man)
You know where I'm at (Yup, I'm right here man)
I know where you at (Yup, I'm right there man)
I know that you know that, I know that you know,
that you know that I know where you at (Yup, you over there man)
I know where you at (Party over here)
"Give it up for them" the crowd cheered, Mikan and Natsume high fived. Then the DJ changed the songs to house, Hey Boy Hey Girl by The Chemical Brothers was on. Everybody was dancing and letting themselves be free for the night, jumping up and down, some guys were even howling like wolves
Natsume resumed dancing with Mikan, while Ruka was with Hotaru. And sometimes they switched partners, suddenly the Barbie dolls duo came in their revealing costumes " Modern Princesses" that barley covered their skins.
Luna pushed Mikan away from Natsume and started dirty dancing around him while Stella did the same with Hotaru and hooked her arms around Ruka's neck. Crimson and blue flashed in anger and disgust 'Those chicks are impossible'They thought as they pushed the blondies away and went to their previous partners
The sisters were stubborn, and giving up hot guys to others is like letting go of their favorite Valentino stilettos so they kept shoving the girls away again and again. But Ruka came up with a quick idea so he told Mikan about it and she liked it, then he whispered it to Natsume who told Hotaru
Whenever the monsters would try to separate them, they would spin or they would stand an arm length away and the barbies would miss, making them nearly fall on the ground and get crushed by hundred feet, all while dancing none stop of course. After Luna and Stella ended up crashing with each other, face to face, they were humiliated and embarrassed so they gave up and went away, but not before glaring at the Alpha and Beta
'This is not over Sakura/Imai '
The lasses replied them with a smirk and concentrated on the music. The loud music stopped and changed to a slow one, it was the cue to get a rest and let the real couples dominate the dance floor
"I never knew you had it in you Ruka" Hotaru said with a mischievous smile, Ruka gave her one of his own and bowed
"Now you do miss Imai" he said making Mikan and Natsume snicker
"Oh look who's acting as a couple" Mikan said in a mocking voice
"Shut the fuck up" Hotaru glared at her friend while he coughed awkwardly
"Anyway Mikan I want to ask you about that skill you used in that game. How did you do it again?" Natsume dragged Mikan away from them, leaving the two alone. She gave him a What-The-Hell-Dude? look
He took her to the balcony. She retrieved her wrist, and glared
"What's up with you? I was about to have fun messing around with them"
"Leave them alone will ya?" she shrugged and walked past him and sat on the balustrade. The moon shone on her and Natsume caught his breath, she looked beautiful as she stared at the sky, just like a mysterious night creature and the Kimono added to her charm
"Say big guy, if I was to leave what would you do?" she blurted out of the blue
"What are you saying Tangerine?"
"Just answer the damn question " he sighed
"If you leave, well...I guess that would be a waste" she looked at him
"Do you want to hold me? going softy on me Hyuuga ey?" she smirked
"You know if you sew your mouth you'll make an ideal goth doll. And hopefully my ears will take a rest from all your cursing" he smirked "But to tell the truth I would be sad, I mean if you weren't there who'll challenge me in a 'Who'll stuff his food in his mouth faster' competition?"
"And who'll kick your ass in video games?" she added
"You see my point" she chuckled but then she frowned
"Natsume, I'm sorry but you have to find someone else to spend time with. Because..." she paused, her gaze serious "...after I graduate I'll leave to America"
He was bewildered 'Mikan is leaving?' the atmosphere grew heavy and he let out a hollow laugh
"Nice one Tangerine, you almo..." she cut him off "I'm serious"
"But why are you going there in the first place?"
"Let's say that I had a deal with my father, and my time here in Japan is almost done" he walked towards her and leaned on the balustrade "A deal?"
"I used to live in America, actually I was born there. I came back to Japan when I was in 6th grade Elementary, but dad stayed because of work"
He nodded "I see, and for how long are you staying there? or are you planning to never come back?" she smirked at him and did her favorite Shaka sign
"Dude, I can't leave Demon Maidens for ever. I'll come back after three years"
"Three years?" she sighed and flicked his forehead "Hey!"
"Are you a parrot now or what? stop repeating everything I say. Yes three, I have some business to take care of and after that I'll come back" she grinned cheekily
"I'll Search for you" she poked him "Hunt you down" another poke "Then challenge you in surfing or Hip Hop or Video games" this time she purposely poked him harder
"That's a promise. Keep your word little girl 'k?" he winked at her, she rolled her eyes
"And I never break my word" and with that a promise was made between the two. Then they heard some ruckus in the hall
"What's happening there?" Natsume mused, Mikan jumped down
"How should I know? come on if it's a fight I wanna see it and hopefully I'll take part of it" she smirked and cracked her knuckles
"You bitch you're trying to steal him away from me! didn't I tell you not to come near him again" they heard Stella's voice
"What's going on here?" Mikan asked Kei
"Ah! Mikan-san, Natsume-san! That crazy Stella Koizumi attacked Hotaru and Ruka as they were dancing together" Kei explained. Mikan's eyes darkened, and she made her way to the source of the fuss only to see an angry Hotaru, twisting Stella's arm while the blondy was crying fake tears
"Hotaru stop it" Ruka said, he wasn't worried about the bimbo. He was afraid that the raven lass will get into trouble
Tsubasa and the rest wanted to help but D.M stopped them
"Let them be" Misaki was smirking evilly
"Enough is enough. And I've never seen Hotaru or Mikan so patient with annoying chicks like them before" Sumire shrugged
"A girl can take as much as she can until she finally snaps. Ne?" Anna and Nonoko replied nonchalantly, they smiled sweetly at each other but you can sense evil vibes coming from them
"Shut up Blondy" Hotaru snapped at him and let go of Stella with a smirk "Come on dady's little girl. Didn't you say you can get fierce too? then show me"
"Bitch!" Stella stomped her feet and lunged at Hotaru, trying to scratch her with her long fingernails
"Idiot" Hotaru dodged it easily by stepping aside. But then Luna came from behind, and tried to pull her hair. This was Mikan's cue, she used her Katana and blocked Luna's hand
"I think I have to use the hard way to make things clear" her face was void of any emotion "Stay away from my girls!" she took her sword out and pointed it at the Bimbos
"Hn you think you can scare us with that toy of yours?" they had a smug look on their faces
"Who said it was fake?" came Hotaru's reply as she took three plates from a near table and threw them in the air. Mikan jumped and cut them into half, three pieces in her hand while the rest landed in Hotaru's hand
"Just what the hell are you?" Luna was shaking in fear. Stella couldn't even move
"Demon Maiden's Alpha" she shrugged
"The Gakuen is crazy for allowing you to use that. Even the government won't allow it" Stella said as she recovered
"Wow I'm surprised you know words like allow and government." Hotaru gasped sardonically
" Hmph you're just a show off " Luna said with a huff
"And didn't you wonder why they are the only ones who get to attend Hip Hop class? They must have bribed the principal or something" Stella looked around her trying to convince the others that they were right
"Or worst! They must have threatened and forced him to get them to Hip Hop, I pity them. They have no talent at all, not like me and my sister" Luna's lips curved in a devilish smile.
The sisters were expecting a roar of 'Yeah's and 'You're right Luna/Stella' but they were greeted by silence then the students burst out laughing
"Why are you laughing?" Luna was red in anger and Stella wasn't doing any better. Kei and the guys stepped out in front of Koizumis
"Mataku you are stupid" Kei said coolly
"Didn't you see them in the show today?" another one said "The girls belong to our class"
"And you have the guts to call them talentless? How I wish I had your pride and guts" Taki clasped his hands together and mocked them
"For real man ? I'm not sure, they're like cockroaches. Even if you step on them, they come back to live again" Kei said causing the others to laugh. The twins opened and closed their mouths for the lack of words, they looked like fishes
Four guys approached them and they paled. Two were from the basket-ball team while the others were from the soccer team
"You have gone too far Stella" one of them said, also known as Kyo
"I can't take your crap anymore" Noa said
"I can't believe I dated you for the last two months. What was I thinking?" Rui was fuming
"I'm breaking up with you Luna/Stella" they said at the same time, as realization struck them, they looked at each other
"Dude what the hell are you saying? Luna/Stella asked me out two months ago" confusion was writen on their faces
"No I went out with her for the last two months" they were about to fight but they felt someone tap their shoulders
"Bakas. Can't you figure out what's going on?" Hotaru asked
"They were two-timing you without you knowing it. Oto looks someone is done partying already" Mikan pointed at the sisters who were trying to run away
"Not so fast Honey" they spat and dashed after them
"Yes love?" they tried to act innocent and flashed at the boys their best puppy eyes
"So you were deceiving us all this time huh?" with each word they got closer, emitting a killing aura
The Koizumis were backing away slowly without looking behind them "So what? There are a lot of boys and just one of me and Luna" Stella gulped
"Yeah she's righ~~" and SPLASH they fell in one of those huge fountains. Their make up was running all over their faces.
Laughs echoed in the hall and fingers were pointed at the sisters while Hotaru took pictures and Mikan made sure to record everything
"Urg I hate you all, you're idiots! all of you" They scoffed and gasped girlishly and dashed out of the door, crying
"Now they are fit for Halloween " Mikan high fived with Hotaru
"Ok, That was interesting " the DJ said as he calmed himself after a long laughing session "There's one last dance for the couples so enjoy before we end this extraordinary night"
"You got it all on tape?" D.M and the guys approached Mikan and Hotaru who nodded
"Hotaru I..." she cut Ruka off
"I'm sorry but I don't think I can stay here for long, I'm tired see you tomorrow" she turned around
"I'll escort you to your room" Ruka held on her shoulder but she shook his hand off
"No need Blondy!" she said coldly " Why don't you go and comfort your little princess huh? I probably hurt her arm" she whispered the last part and went away
He watched her retreating figure. Mikan punched his shoulder
"Don't worry kido, she just needs sometime to cool down" she beamed "I guess I'll disappear too. This couple mood isn't for me, you guys have fun"
Tsubasa whistled lowly " You guys are screwed up" he grinned at the crimson and blue eyed lads
"Tell us something we don't know" Ruka glared. Natsume sighed desperately
When Mikan was heading to the exit a guy bumped into her causing her to lose balance and fall
"I'm sorry I wasn't looking " he gave her a hand but she stared at it and stood up on her own
"Next time you better watch where you're going Baka" she glared at him. When he saw her face clearly, his eyes widened
"Mi-Mikan!" she looked perplexed
"Do I know you?" she asked, he coughed
"No but I saw you at the show today, you're very skilled. So you are the famous Sakura Mikan right?" he smiled, his black orbs shone underneath his mask that covered nearly half of his face
"Yeah it's me and I'm not interested in knowing who you are. Hope to never see you again" she gave him a two-fingers salute and left him alone
'After all those years, you didn't recognize me. You didn't change in appearance and your character is just the same as it was three years ago.
"Hey Rei, what are you doing?" asked one of his friends.
He shook his head "Nothing, just tired a little. I'll be leaving now, later" he politely refused all the girls that asked him to dance
With one thought in his mind he made his way to his room
'But then you weren't like this Mikan, you used to be sweet, and I realised my mistake after I let go of you. I wonder if you still feel the same way as me'
FInally bye bye Koizumis, and I wonder who's the new guy and he seems to know Mikan very well can you guess or do you have an idea? xD THAT'S for moi to know and for vous to find out but in the next chapters and ohh Hotaru is mad at Ruka but the poor Blondy..I mean guy was just trying to help her
P.S: Just wanted you to knw that I hav nothing against blond Boys/Girls actually I wanted to be born as one when I was little but then I came to accept myself as a Brunette with sun-kissed skin Lolz :P oh N Gays too even though I feel kind of uncomfortable abt them
