Chapter 4: Doctor becomes Servant
"Hey Polka, wake up." Who is that? And who's Polka?
Oh no! Maybe there's a burglar!
I snapped awake and I was shocked to see Natsume, just a few inches away from my face.
Why do they always do that?
"What are you doing in my room? And who's Polka?" He just smirked and pointed at my closet that seems to have an open drawer.
"My closet's Polka?" he just had that smirk and it ticked me off more. Now, what is up with my clo- oh, shit. A drawer is open. Polka? –sigh- he rummaged my underwear cabinet.
"Pervert" and I tried to punch him in the arm but he easily dodged it. Darn, I'm still sleepy. Well, no point in sleeping in. I have a new pest in the house.
Skate Park
Boys with helmets and padding holding skate boards were surrounding us. I can't believe I'm in here, at Kyoto-Murasaki Skatepark. Imagine that! We went all the way to Kyoto from Tokyo. It's about 370 km and we rode the bullet train to get here.
And that ride was the worst part of the day. Women were glaring daggers at me while men were ogling at me. Pft, perverts and bitches. I understand why the women were glaring at me, I did have a hot young man as company but why were men ogling at me? –sigh- boys.
"Hey, polka. Stop spacing out already. Hurry up and catch up. We're running late." Now, you must be wondering why I'm with him. Well, according to him, I slept him off and didn't help in cleaning at all and so as punishment, I have to be his servant for a month and I had no other choice because I did feel bad about leaving him to clean all by himself when it really was my fault.
So, here we are in the registration booth. He said he's a contestant to the X-Games and that I had to carry around his stuff. Which is currently occupying my two puny hands. Gawd, this bag is heavy.
"Hey, c'mon. you should seriously stop spacing out. Now follow me. The competitions starting." The master speaks and as a servant, I must follow.
He opened up the bag I was holding awhile ago and my jaw dropped, literally. No wonder that thing was so heavy! It contained a helmet, his skateboard, protective padding, a few accessories (for the skateboard) water, face towel and a lot of more. I can't believe all of it fitted in!
"Contestant's for the Freestyle Skateboarding Competition, please come to the starting line now." That seemed to be his call because he rushed off to the said starting line fully equipped and with his black skateboard with a red dragon design at hand.
"Final Call for the Contestants of the Freestyle Skateboarding Competition. We shall commence the competition in a few minutes."
I saw Natsume at the line of young men being informed of the Rules and the Mechanics. How do I know? Well, it's just a hunch.
"The Freestyle Skateboarding Competition will now commence." Spotlights were focused on each of the players, showing them one by one. And when it was Natsume's turn, gawd, I thought I was going to be deaf! The girls were screaming like crazy! Oh, man I just wanna get out of here. Good thing the spotlight was focused on another guy and the screams halted. Aww, poor guy. He didn't have any type of moral support.
The competition started off shortly with the first contestant. I think his name was Izuki Hazimatsu but I wasn't sure because I didn't hear the intercom well because of the loud howling.
He first skidded to the ramp and performed a smooth 360 Spin. Well, it was a nice start i guess. He went on and on with his freestyle with a Butter Flip, Calf Wrap, and Casper Disaster and tried out the legendary Broken Fingers trick, but it was an epic fail. He was rushed to the ambulance right away.
That has got to earn a lot of deductions.
Now, you're probably wondering again why I know these tricks. Well, I've got a teensy bit of experience with skateboarding and I like playing Tony Hawk's with my psp. So, that's why.
After a few more contestants, it was finally Natsume's turn. He started off with a Hang Ten Spin and continued his routine with a Carousel that earned lots of shouts because it was a double 50/50 move that he pulled off. Now, that earns tons of points. He also performed Gymnast Plant, Handstand and Broken Fingers which were all 50/50. Okay, it's either he really wants to win or he just likes to show off. After a few more hard to exhibition tricks, he finished it off with an End-over and Natsume's perfect freestyle ended.

We are on the bullet train once again but not only am I holding his bag. I was also holding onto his gigantic trophy. Yeah, he won the X-Games. Well, that didn't really come as a shock to me because I had to admit, his freestyle was nothing compared to the other losers, woops, I mean contestants.
"So, were you charmed by my expertise? Did I woo you with my excellence at skateboarding." Oh, how cocky can he get? "Well, for your information. I don't care about your freestyle. All you did was do 50/50 tricks so that they'd believe you are the best even though it was all fake." I surely hit the jackpot when his vein popped. Oh, how I love teasing him. Just when I was expecting a reply, the train stopped. This seems to be our stop and so we got out of the train with me behind dragging his heavy bag and trophy. Oh, I hate being a servant.

Monday; Alice Academy
As I entered the gates of Alice Academy, I couldn't help but notice people staring at me. Well, some were glaring, some confused and some were just plain staring. And it really freaked me out because I am not the type of person that gets comfortable being on the spotlight. As I was walking, I couldn't help but hear a girl talking to her friend about me.
"Hey, isn't that Mikan Sakura, the Love Doctor? Why is she with Natsume-senpai? Could it be that they're together?" If I was drinking or eating anything, I would've spit it out because of the girl's comment. C'mon, me and Natsume? Puh-lease!
"Nah, that's impossible. She's the expert on the field of love! She's not foolish like the other girls to go out with Natsume-sempai, the number one playboy in school." I felt happy about the girl's friend's comment and amused by the fact that Natsume managed to make a name for himself as the number one playboy. Maybe there really was no point in helping him out after all. He seemed to be the type that never gets serious with a girl.
"Hey, polka. Stop eavesdropping and hurry up already." –sigh- why did I ever agree to be his servant?
Biology
It's Biology again but unlike last time, we're just having a discussion and it really bores me to the bone. I can't wait to go out of this room already, I wanna have my lunch. I am so hungry. I was engaging myself to sleep when suddenly my phone vibrated from my pocket.
"Hey, getting bored?" it was a text from Youichi, I forgot that I got his number a few days ago (A/N: if you're wondering, Youichi has a new phone)
"Yeah, pretty much. Nobunaga's lesson is sooooo boring. How about you?" I glanced at Youichi from the corner of my eye and I saw him smile by reading my text. Now, what was funny?
"Got that right. So, you got any plans later?" that sounds suspicious but oh, well.
"Nope. I'm free the whole day. Why? You going to treat me for dinner or something? :D" I joked at him and I was surprised to see his reply.
"Yeah,so I'll pick you up later at 6, then, alright?" And that was the last of our texting. Hmm, I guess its okay for him to treat me for dinner. We are good friends after all, so there's no harm done. I'll just repay him when I get my allowance next week.

When Youichi said he was going to treat me for dinner, I was thinking more of fast food chains like McDonalds or Wendy's and so I was really shocked when he dropped as off to a restaurant. A Five Star Restaurant to be exact.
I was really taken off guard because I wasn't dressed for this place. I'm just in my faded blue jeans and tank top while the people surrounding me are wearing semi-formal or formal dresses. Oh, man. I just want to evaporate right now.
"Youichi, why are we eating here?" he stared at me as if I was retarded, again. Augh, does Youichi really think I'm crazy?
"Why? You don't wanna eat here? I can cancel the reservation if you want." The offer was very tempting but I wouldn't want to waste the poor boy's efforts and so I just said that it's okay and went in thinking I wouldn't meet anyone from school there so it was okay.
Being really unfamiliar with the food on the Menu, I let Youichi decide but it seems as though he never heard of this food, too and so he just ordered the most delicious looking one for the both of us.
We were served wine while waiting for our order and getting bored out of mind; I took notice of my surroundings. Next to our table on the left seemed to be a married CEO couple discussing business matters while sipping their wine. On the right was an old man that looked like he was waiting for someone. I saw adults, more adults, Hotaru and a blonde guy, adults, mor- wait, Hotaru and a blonde guy?
I directed my eyes to the table not far away from ours. It was no doubt, Hotaru with a blonde guy. Could it be that she found someone new? Getting really curious, I excused myself from Youichi and approached Hotaru's table.
"I told you I don't need you to repay me. Just be grateful and go" I heard Hotaru's voice as I got closer and closer.
"I can't really just go and leave. You did save my life after all." Was I hearing this right? Hotaru saved this guy's life?
"Hey, Hotaru!" she seemed to be startled with my presence but still managed to remain stoic.
She nodded in response and I asked if I could sit down.
After her nod, I sat down beside her. "So, who's he? Your new boyfriend?" I needed to be straight to the point. After all, Youichi was still waiting for me.
I noticed the blonde boy blush and I actually thought my hunch was right but it was disproved when Hotaru flatly said "No"
"Then, who is he?"
"Just some boy I saved from getting harassed by rabid girls." Did I hear it right? Rabid girls? I thought only dogs were rabid?
"Rabid Girls?And what's your name, mister?" the blonde boy seemed to be taken aback by my question and stuttered out his name.
"R-ruka Nogi. Uhmm, they weren't really rabid. They just seemed rabid to Hotaru because of the white substances that came out of their mouth when they saw me." Oh, that's what it means.
Getting enough information, I excused myself from them and proceeded to Youichi.
I came at the right time, because when I got there, our food was already set out and I instantly got hungry.
After we ate, I thanked Youichi for the meal and he drove me back to my apartment. When I stepped inside, I saw Natsume at the couch looking mad as a cow.
"Where have you been, servant?" uh-oh somebody's cranky.
"Uhmm, Youichi treated me for dinner?" okay why did that turn out as a question? Man, Natsume can be really intimidating sometimes.
"Oh so you ate dinner for free while I starved to death?" oh crap, I forgot that Natsume doesn't cook and I cook our meals. Oh, I'm in for some big trouble.
"you're going to be my servant for two months as a punishment. Now go and cook me my food." And off I went to the kitchen to cook his majesty's meal.
Today, I've realized two things:
1.) Always remember to cook Natsume's food and;
2. )I might've just found Hotaru's perfect match.
