Most of the characters of the same gender are the same ageI woke up the next morning with a huge kink in my neck. I couldn't believe that jerk made me sleep on the couch. I woke up like five times because I was freezing cold. Not only that but I fell of quite a few times too, I shouldn't really complain though because it was way better then sleeping in the cramped car.
I decided to stop grumbling to myself and went to go and get some breakfast. As I got up from the couch I tripped and stumbled over something. I looked down to see that it was a soft blue blanket.
So that's why I stopped waking up because of the cold. I wonder who could've given it to me. Well that's a stupid question; unless a person randomly came in here and gave me a blanket I suppose it must've been Natsume.
I shrugged it off as me forgetting that I grabbed one before I went to sleep and went to find the kitchen. I was still amazed at the size of this "bedroom," it was about as big as my house back home.
"Oh! That reminds me, I should see if I can call my Grandpa. I'm sure he's worried sick."
"Don't you know that it's not healthy to talk to yourself in the morning monkeys?" Natsume said as he walked into the room.
"Are you ever not a pervert? How did you find out anyways?" I said thinking to myself, and then it dawned on me. I was about to explode in….

"You stupid pervert! You assaulted me in my sleep; I knew this was going to happen! Now I can't get married you stupid idiot!" I said almost crying.
"Then I guess you're going to grow old alone and live with fifty cats as your only friends."
I opened my mouth to say something but decided against it. Instead, I walked over to the white-board hanging on the wall and wrote,
Dear Natsume,
Until you change your perverted ways, I'm going to stop talking to you.
"So all I had to do was call you Monkey's in order to get you to shut-up? If I'd known that I would've done it a while ago." He said coldly as he turned away from me.
"Hmph" After that I stormed out of the room grabbing a banana on my way out. Because I wasn't going back there anytime soon I went to find Narumi to call my Grandpa. It took me almost a half an hour to find him but I eventually did. He was sitting in what looked to be a classroom and figured it was his.
"Ah, Mikan-Chan. You do realize that there are no classes today correct?" I nodded. "Well then what can I do for you today?"
"Uhm, I was wondering if I could call my Grandpa. I just want to see if he's ok, and let him know that I'm alright too."
"Well I suppose it would be okay, but this is the last time for a while. You aren't going to be able to talk to him a lot so make this time count aright?"
I nodded and started dialing the number that was burned into my memory and called the place I used to call home. While I waited for him to pick up I realized that I might not be able to go home until I graduate. I might not even have a home to go back to, Grandpa is old after all and may not be able to stay alive that long. I pushed those sad thoughts out of my mind when Grandpa picked up. Narumi left the room to give us some privacy and we talked for about an hour and a half. I was overjoyed to find that he was okay, and that I got to talk to him for so long.
When I finally hung up Narumi came back into the room and told me that everybody was ready to try and explain to me what was going on. I had a feeling that I was in for a long and confusing story time.

Apparently my own mother was a student at this very school. When she first came she was put into the dangerous ability class. This class is only where students with Alice's that are useful to the school go. Not only did she have one Alice, but she had two that were both dubbed as dangerous.
Before my mother graduated she gave into the Outsiders and broke out of the academy. When she finally realized that what they were doing was wrong she turned on them and ran away. They chased her down for many years but she finally got them to lose her trail. A few years after she had me, but because she was checked into a hospital the Outsiders once again found her.
They not only killed my father but tried to kidnap me as well. In order to keep me safe I was handed over to my grandpa, while she once again ran away. After all these years the Outsiders finally realized that I might be an even better accomplice then my mother, and therefore they want me instead.
"Wow that's a lot to take in." I said with wide eyes.
"We need to keep a close eye on you to make sure they don't attack at any moment. Because we can't take any chances we assigned Natsume as your partner. You are not allowed to go anywhere with out him." Said the Middle School President
We also want to study you a little to find out what Alice you have, even though it's pretty clear you have the Nullification Alice." Narumi informed me.
I went to go find the others that I met yesterday. As it would turn out they were all in the dining room again.
"Hey you guys."
"Ohiyo Mikan-Chan." Everyone said when I got to the table.
I told them all about what the Middle School President had informed me of. The look on Sumire's face when I said I had become Natsume's partner was murderous, but I tried to ignore it.
Ruka's eyes seemed to glow when I told them that I was going to finish the rest of my school years here. Hotaru being the cold person she is just rolled her eyes and went back to eating her crab.
After a while everybody said they were going to go back to there rooms and I was about to do the same until I realized that I wasn't talking to Natsume right now. I decided to take a walk around the school instead.
"Hotaru, will you take me on a tour of the school?"
"Fine, lets go Baka."
It was nice talking and seeing Hotaru again after all these years. She was my best friend before she left, and I had never really grown as close to anybody when she left. I felt that our friendship here is going to just continue like it was before she left. By the time we were finished looking at the Middle School section it was pretty late so I decided to turn in for the night.
I decided to take a shower before I did anything else. When I was finished I grabbed a book to read and started for the couch. A few pages into the book I broke down crying. I wasn't sure why but I felt so lonely and needed somebody to talk to. Natsume walked into the room as I started crying and gave me a puzzled look.
"If sleeping on the couch bothers you that much you can get out a mattress."
I looked at him and started sniffling. I don't know why but talking to Natsume made me feel better.
"Tch, I forgot you weren't talking to me."
"No its not that I'm just upset and I don't know why." He nodded and started walking away.
"Umm Natsume, do you think you could stay here until I fall asleep? I really don't want to be alone."
"Whatever Baka." He said walking over to the reclining chair.
I smiled and for the first time since I arrived at the academy I had goodnights sleep.
