Breaktime.

Speechless is understatement. Natsume Hyuuga was utterly shocked to be greeted by his now vandalized locker.

Locker #119.

'Liar!'

'Cheater!'

'Bastard!'

'Asshole!'

'Die you motherfucker!'

'Go to hell with that bitch!'

'You suck!'

'Chauvinist pig!'

A drawing of a middle finger raised.

And initials of someone which reads 'MS'.

"Who the hell did this?!", he shouted, surprising the other students.

From a distance, he could hear the people around him whispering and gossiping. Once he found out whoever played this dirty joke to him will surely be beaten into pulp.

He stood there motionless, his knuckles turning white from his own grip. Out of nowhere, Natsume was abruptly pulled by his collar and pinned on the locker by a brown-haired girl shorter than him. For a petite girl, she sure is strong.

Crimson eyes clashing with amber eyes, both having an irritated look.

"What the fuck?!", he asked in confusion.

Mikan scoffed.

"And you still have the nerve to show your face and ask that. Listen here, you jerk. I don't care if you are rich, famous, handsome, whatever! What you did to my friend is unacceptable! Not answering her calls? Ditching her? Having the time of your life with another girl while YOU pig left her waiting for you in your supposedly date! What did Sumire ever did to you that you must hurt her this bad?!"

"Then you must have mistaken me for that pig. Do I look like a pig to you?"

Clearly, the guy isn't afraid of her. He even has some guts to talk to her in a sarcastic manner, considering their situation. Sure, he doesn't look like a pig but his attitude is comparable to that of a pig's. People like him disgusts her.

"I don't what the hell you are talking about, crazy woman! I don't even know you or your friend! Would you let me go?!"

"Now you're pretending not to know Sumire?," Mikan said in disbelief before continuing. "Yes, everyone! You heard that right! This guy is a cheater and now he's pretending to have a fucking amnesia just so he could get away! Well, I'm not buying it. He will make you fall in love with his sweet words and when he finally get what he wants, he'll dump you like a trash. You guys want a proof? Well, that's what he did to my friend! My precious friend! She was loyal to you! Didn't you know how much effort she put just to prepare her surprise for you?! She even ask for my help! But what did she get? A womanizing pig! Screw you!"

Natsume is starting to lose his patience. He can be violent man if he wants, but he's not that bad to hit a girl. Not until this woman came to him, making false accusations of him and even sharing it to the whole student body.

"Stop calling me a pig! And whoever the fuck that guy is, I swear it's not me!"

'You're one tough dude, huh.'

"I'm gonna teach you a lesson you won't ever forget. Any last words? No? But I have. Die in shame!", Mikan threatened as she gripped his collars and positioned him to the ground.

Meanwhile, a group of lads was walking along the hallways while the commotion seemed to attract more and more people.

"Hey, have you seen Natsume?", one of them asked.

"Uhm…guys?", Tobita Yuu called out to his friends, witnessing an unlikely scene before them.

Mikan on top of Natsume. Fist clenched, ready to aim at his face.

Natsume saw his friends watching in awe, entertained by the fact that he, their friend, was getting beat up by a girl for the first time. It's not always you get to see this so might as well enjoy the show, right?

Snapping them out of their daze, Natsume yelled to them.

"You dumbass! What are you doing?! Get this girl off me!"

Tsubasa Andou and Tonouichi Akira immediately pulled Mikan away from him before her fist could even come into contact with his face while Ruka Nogi and Kokoro Yome came rushing into Natsume's side and hauled him up from the floor.

Mikan was trying to free herself from their firm grasp while Natsume was dusting his uniform, looking like a total mess.

"Man, are you okay?", Koko asked.

"What do you think?", Natsume replied icily.

"What's happening here?", said by an unknown person, his tone hinted with strictness.

Seeing the disciplinary officer of the school's presence, Jinno, the students gave way to him as he walked closely to see the chaos himself. Mikan stopped her protests and they finally let go of her.

"Hyuuga Natsume and Yukihira Mikan, I see."

Mikan's eyes widened while Natsume just rolled his eyes.

Jinno fixed his eyeglasses and send a pointed look the others students.

"All of you, go back to your classrooms."

With several students disappearing in different directions, Mikan grabbed the chance to sneak her way out but Jinno did not missed it.

"Yukihira, not you."

Now, Mikan, Natsume, and his friends were the only remaining ones. Standing by the vandalized locker, Jinno turned his head to the side.

"She did it", Natsume said, causing Mikan to lower her head.

Suddenly, they heard footsteps and female giggles.

"Come on, Sumire. Cheer up!"

Mikan saw her friends coming and the heavy feeling on her chest was temporarily lifted off. They stopped walking as they saw her.

"Mikan? What are you-", Anna asked but Jinno interefered.

"Detention room, now."

Natsume and Mikan trailed behind Jinno as they make their way to the detention room. Hotaru continued munching on her crab-flavored chips as she watched her friend in a pitiful state.

'Stupid.'

The silence was broken by the disciplinary officer, eyeing Natsume and Mikan who was sitting adjacently as he asked them once again.

"What's the ruckus all about?"

"She vandalized my locker and suddenly attacked me", Natsume spoke first.

"I-It's not like that, sir. Th-there's a reason b-behind that", Mikan reasoned, stammering due to nervousness.

"What could it be then that it could not wait outside the school premises?"

"You see, this pig, I mean, this guy, hurt my friend badly and it started to affect her physically and emotionally. O-of course, as a concerned friend, you wouldn't want to see her in such state. R-right, sir?", Mikan said, convincing Jinno.

"So you get back at him in the place of your friend? Is that what you're trying to say, Ms. Yukihira?"

"Yes!", Mikan answered determinedly.

"This is getting stupid. Why the hell am I even here? This idiot started it", Natsume complained.

"Who are you calling idiot?! You can still talk like that after what I've put you through!"

"In this room, only one is an idiot and it's you, dragging me to your stupid puppy love problem!"

"It's my friend who was deeply hurt by a pig like you we're talking about!"

"How many times do I have to tell you that I am not and never was in a relationship with your friend, you ugly girl?!"

"You in denial pig!"

"Enough!"

The sudden outburst of Jinno seemed to catch their attention and stopped them from their constant bickering.

"No matter what you say, you're still at fault in this, Yukihira. I believe that personal issues should not be brought here at school. As disciplinary sanction, you're going to remove the spray paint on Hyuuga's locker after class."

Hearing this, Natsume smirked as he gave her a smug look as if telling her, 'I win.'

Mikan glared at him before nodding her head.

"You may now go back to your classrooms. I expect that this would not happen again."

"Yes sir", she answered meekly.
