When I awoke I found myself lying on the couch with a blanket over me. How I got there was beyond me. Since I knew Natsume actually comforting me was totally out of the question I assumed I dreamt the storm and everything.

"But last night felt so real." I said to myself

"Oi, didn't anybody ever tell you that only baka's talk to themselves?"

"Ne Natsume, did anything happen last night?" Natsume just gave me a sly grin and walked away.

"What's that supposed to mean?"

Whatever I'll just pretend like nothing happened, not that anything did happen. But why do I feel like I want last night to be real, never before has my heart pound so hard when I think about Natsume.

"Maybe I should talk to Hotaru, I'm sure she has experienced this before." I said as I made my way to class.

When I arrived, I was the last one there as usual.

"Hotaru!" I said just as she shot me with her infamous Baka Gun. "Hotaru why are you so mean to me, oh and by the way I need to talk to you about something."

"Good morning class." Narumi Sensei said while spinning around. "Today we are going to go on a hike in the forest just for the fun of it."

"Oi, idiot teacher, what does this have to do with school?"

"Oh nothing I just wanted to take a walk today." Narumi said while he led us towards the forest.

"Now kids you must be very careful while in the forest. There are many dangerous cliffs that are hidden by bushes and trees." When we were allowed to go our separate ways I took the chance to talk to Hotaru.

"Hotaru, what does it mean when my heart pounds really fast?"

"Well it happens to me when I see some delicious crab meat." She said as her eyes started to light up.

"No I mean it only happens when I think about or see Natsume. I think maybe he did something like an evil jerk spell or something"

She turned around and gave me a very sly smile. "So it's finally happened."

"What do you mean?"

"Just make sure you spend a lot of time around Natsume."

"Will that make the spell go away? 'Cause I don't like feeling like this."

Hotaru just walked over to Ruka and left me to my thoughts. Maybe Natsume's plan was to put this spell on me so I would stay way. Well ha, that's not going to work, I'm going to spend as much time with him as I can.

I looked over to where Hotaru and Ruka were. They seemed to be spending a lot of time together. Maybe Ruka put the same spell on Hotaru that Natsume did to me.

"Okay kids, it's starting to get dark time to head back." I started looking for Hotaru but I couldn't see her anywhere.

"Actually now that I'm looking I can't see anybody." I said to myself.

While I wasn't paying attention I lost my balance and bumped into somebody sending us into some bushes. As if that weren't bad enough we started to roll down a hidden cliff.

"Oi! You stupid baka, how many times do I have to tell you to watch where you are going?"

I looked up at Natsume and that annoying heart beat came back. "Why are you doing this to me?"

"Have you finally lost it? Last time I checked you knocked me down." I tried to stand up but a shooting pain shot up through my leg.

"Ow, ow, ow."

Natsume left with out saying anything and I was left by myself. Some great partner I had, just leave me when things get rough. I started sobbing because of the pain in my leg and because I was all alone.

"Hotaru, please help me. You big dummy, jerk face Natsume."

"Who are you calling a dummy Polka?"

"Natsume, I thought you left. I was so scared." I said letting more tears fall.

He didn't say anything but I couldn't look at him anymore. The pain in my chest was just too much to handle.

"What did you mean earlier when you said 'why are you doing this to me'?"

"Every time I see you my heart aches and I don't know why, I want it to stop."

Natsume placed some kindling down on the ground and started a fire using his alice. We both sat there in silence. I liked being with Natsume when we didn't argue and when it was quiet.

"Do you want me to make the pain in your heart go away?"

"You're going to lift the spell?"

"What spell?"

"Hotaru said that if I stay really close to you all the time the spell that you have over me will lift and the pain will go away."

"She said that?" He said lifting an eyebrow.

"Well not exactly but I think Ruka has a spell on her and that's why they spend so much time together."

"Tch, you really are stupid."
