Torn Between Love and Beauty

Chapter 5: The Mail

Weeks had passed and she had gotton more closer to me. She regularly asked me to help her with her studies, play with her, asked me to help comb her hair, picking up her dress...

But, as for me...

"Natsume-kun" The annoying voice of the brunette rang through my head... again...

God, I hate that nickname...

Controlling my anger... I charged into her room. "What?" i managed not to shout out while twitching my eyes.

I entered her room, which is all pink and girly... Annoyingly pink and girly.

"Nat-su-me! There's a festival at the central city tomorrow night!!" She said while jumping on top of the bed, up and down, up and down.

"So?"

"Sooooo..." She finally jumped off the bed. "So i was wondering if... you can... take me there?"

A slight blush creapt through her face. She kept her head low.

Chuckling to myself, this girl always blushed like a tomato... well, because of me, of course. (A/N: hehe... Neko-chan, think again)

"No."

"But... why not?"

"I don't like baby-sitting..."

She walked closer towards me. "Pleeeaaaaaaaaassssseeeee..."

"..."

She looks extremly disappointed while still having her head low.

I heard from the other servants in the kingdom that she seldom goes out. I think it's because of the people in the kingdom. But still... i want to find out.

"Fine." I forced my tongue.

"W-What?" She lifted her head up and stared into my eyes.

"I just AGREED. What are you, deaf?" I pulled my eyes away, not wanting to drown in her amazingly beautiful eyes.

"R-Really?? Why... Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!"

O... kay... this is annoying...

She threw her hands around me. And little did i know, she put a light kiss on my face.

Still cheering, she left the room.

Obviously, i was still shocked. My whole face lighted up and i can still feel her gentle lips on my face.

I reached through my face and rest my hand on my face.

Smiling, i whispered, "Baka..."

Mikan's POV

I'm soooooo happy he agreed!! I spun around the garden and took out a pink envelope.

Grinning to myself, i put a gentle kiss on the envelope and took out the important document hidden in it...

...Ruka-sama's message.

I started reading the mail:

Mikan-chan,

I've finished my studies overseas and i can't wait to come back to Alice Country. I might come to the Alice Festival this Sunday night. I'll meet you in our special place. Can't wait to see you soon.

Love,

Ruka

"Kyaaaaaaa!!!" I let out a squeal and spun around the garden.

"Ruka-sama..." Exhausted, i sat on the bench and let myself drift away... my thoughts not leaving Ruka-sama...
