A/N: This is so so SO short and I don't particularly like it but E3 is happening and the Nintendo live stream is controlling my life right now -_- I know I promised longer ones but I am working on one! It'll be over 1500 words... Maybe! I'll try!
20 - Opposites Attract
Mikan didn't know why she loved Natsume, she just did, and that's the answer she'd give anyone who asked. He was mysterious and dark, with a cocky attitude and a tendency to tease. His appearance matched his outward personality, with his dark raven hair and dangerous red eyes, and his facial expressions always amazed her; she had no idea someone could scowl for that long. Yet, she'd seen his weaker side. He had walls he'd built to block everyone else out, but every so often he would break them down and let her in, and that way she knew that he trusted her, and in return she could trust him too. He let her see his sweet side, when the grumpy and angry looks dropped off his face and were replaced by smiles and genuine laughter.
He always protected her, if someone was hurting her physically or mentally, he'd be by her side in an instant and wouldn't stop standing up and fighting for her until she was safe. Sometimes this made her feel useless, but he constantly assures her that she's wrong and that she's the best thing that's ever happened to him and that he'd risk his life again and again if it was for her; and she'd smile and tell him that she would do the same for him, because there was no way she'd let him go so easily. People always said that they weren't the most likely couple, said that it was because they were so different; But Mikan thinks that that's the reason they go so well together. She helps him open up to the world and walk away from the darkness that consumed him while he keeps her under control and protects her from whatever hurts or upsets her. It didn't matter if he could be dark and reserved at times while she was loud and bright, because if there was one thing that she'd learnt from science class, it was that opposites attract.
A/N: Also thank you to everyone who told me what they thought of my last one-shot! I think I will be making it into a full story but I'll upload the first chapter in a few weeks when it's closer to the Holidays so I can update regularly (It also gives me time to think of plot b/c I'm very unimaginative :L)
If you see any mistakes or have a problem with any parts of my writing, please leave a review and tell me... It would be really helpful! :3 Thank you!
Also thank you to everyone who has followed and/or favourited! It means so much! (:
