+MIKAN+

I was walking back to the Art Building, head down, unhappy and empty handed. The notebook wasn't at the lost and found, with any luck I've only left it at home. I really doubt it because I have it with me all the time. Except now.

I raised my head I my eyes still blurry because of the sadness that made me flood my eyes with tears. Most people may say that I'm overemotional. Well, maybe I am a bit. Anyway, when I raised my throbbing head I thought I saw my notebook. I rubbed my eyes to see if I was only hallucinating. A GUY WAS HOLDING MY NOTEBOOK! He is going to get a piece of my mind when I get my notebook back! But really I'm just hoping that he hasn't seen anything in it. As I approached that guy, I was nervous, mad and happy. Nervous because he may have read it, mad because he wasn't supposed to be holding my notebook anyway and happy because I found my notebook.

When I was near enough, I guess it was because I was upset that I flung my fist at him. I hit him square at his jaw. Wow! My fist was seriously hurt from the fist-to-face impact! He glared at me furiously. I turned red because of embarrassment. I thought I would die! I started reaching for my notebook which was in his hand. I wanted it back badly. I turned redder, out of anger this time. Why was this guy messing with her? Did he think that I was messing with him?!

"Who do you think you are, to be hitting me like that?!"

Why was he screaming at me? He's the one who took my notebook! He started walking away leaving me there, fuming with anger. I caught up with him and tried to grab my notebook, but he held it away from my grasp.

" Do you think your funny?! I've been looking, worrying and fuming all day because of it and you won't give it back!" I screamed as he began walking away again. He stopped.

" Is this yours." He said raising his hand that held my precious note book, but he didn't turn around.

" As a matter of fact it is!" I was still fuming, I wanted to stop but I couldn't stop raising my voice.

"Prove it." I couldn't because there was no way of proving it without him opening my notebook and I couldn't risk that. "I don't want to."

"Then you won't be getting this back." He started walking again.

"The fact that I tried grabbing it from you doesn't prove it enough?!" Well I guess there was a way. If he would buy it.

"Anyone would want anything that was held by me so it would be no surprise if you wanted the notebook. You would only sell it on E-bay or somewhere else."

Why does he think I would sell my notebook? It is my only copy of all my poems. And why would I want something that was held by him? So I voiced my thoughts.

"Why would ANYONE want something that was held by you? I just want it back mister. I can't even focus in class without worrying about that thing." Pointing to the notebook he held in his hand.

This time he turned around. He walked toward me and looked at me straight in the eyes. It was the first time I noticed his crimson eyes… they were well… beautiful. When I realized that I was staring at him I blushed again. How could I blush at someone who took my personal stuff?! But his crimson pools were so hard to resist.

"You really don't know who I am? Well, miss your just going to have to prove that you own this notebook if you want it back and I do not give in easily."

I huffed and puffed but I couldn't bring him down. I was really starting to hate the guy. I closed my eyes and counted to ten in every language I knew. When I was about to retort at him, he already disappeared.

With sudden realization….

I DIDN'T EVEN GET HIS NAME!!!

I called Hotaru to come over for dinner. I already knew she would but I wanted to talk to her anyway. I suspect that getting my notebook back wouldn't be an easy thing to do, I'm gonna have to use the big guns to get that guy!

"So that's all of it."

After dinner I told Hotaru about the guy with my notebook. She knew that notebook was a big deal since I wouldn't let her hold it, open it nor read it. She is my best friend but she's really sneaky to. She doesn't like not knowing about things. Well I needed her help getting it back. Of course I knew that there would be a price for her help. I also already knew what she wanted in return or at least I thought I knew.

" I'll help you, but you need to cook for me for an entire year, clean my house every week for the entire year, clean my car, reorganize my closet, library, files, shoe room and all my jewelry. Oh and repaint my walls, sterilize al my kitchen utensils and I get to read the notebook."

That was so much more than I expected a ton more I thought that she would just want to finally read my notebook.

" Okay, I want it back soon."

Hotaru handed me a pen and a piece of paper.

" Sign it."

She was going to be a lawyer. Still, why did she have to have me sign a contract?

I signed it

She left

And I had dishes to clean.

"Smile

Because you still can

Because you make others smile with you

Because someone loves you

And because he loves you too"
