Chapter Seven: Mikan Sakura…I Love You

Natsume followed the girl to the forest of the Lost. It was called this because everyone who has already gone in strangely…never comes back or they aren't the same. Natsume was slowly losing his breathe, but the girl still looked like she was going to run longer. Natsume stayed far enough away so he wouldn't scare the girl. Finally after fifteen minutes of continuous running, the girl stopped in front of the largest and only Sakura tree. She quickly climbed the tree while Natsume watched the girl go up. She had a hat on, but since it was dark out some how, he couldn't tell what color and the face wasn't clear. The girl looked in Natsume's direction and then sighed. "What are you doing here Natsume Hyuuga?" The girl asked.

Her voice was angelic and was so soothing. Natsume fell in love with the beautiful voice. "Mikan Sakura." Natsume said.

The girl went down to the lowest branch and then swung her legs back and forth. "Mikan Sakura?" The girl repeated again and then started to giggle, "If I'm Mikan Sakura what would you do?"
"Are you Mikan Sakura?" Natsume asked.

"What if I am?"
"Just tell me!"
The girl giggled and then climbed back up to the top branch. Her voice then became serious and stoic. "I am." Mikan said.

Natsume went up to the tree and looked at Mikan her. Natsume smiled and then started to climb up the tree until he was only a foot away. Natsume went up on the same branch and then touched her face. Mikan looked at Natsume and touched his hand that was against her face. "Why are you looking at me like that?" Mikan asked looking away, "Why do you have to look at me like that?"

Natsume's eyes had so many expressions in his eyes. Mikan just couldn't know how to explain it. Natsume leaned closer to Mikan. Mikan looked away. "Stop looking at me with those eyes." Mikan whispered to Natsume.

"What eyes?" Natsume asked.

Natsume leaned closer like their noses were about to touch. Natsume kissed Mikan on the cheek and then leaned away so Natsume could see Mikan's expression. Mikan looked shocked and yet…she looked like she really wanted him to kiss her. Mikan looked at Natsume and then looked away with guilt in her eyes. "I'm so sorry." Mikan said and teleported to the bottom of the tree. Natsume looked at Mikan with a confused look. "What are you taking about?" Natsume asked.

Mikan sighed and then looked up at Natsume. "I need to leave…after tomorrow…you won't see me." Mikan said, "You won't even remember me…no one will."
Natsume jumped down and then looked at Mikan like she was crazy, "What are you talking about?" Natsume asked holding onto her arm.

"You and all of the teenagers in your class…will forget me…and that I ever was even here. I will be nothing, but a stranger in your memories."

"I love you."

Mikan looked shocked, but quickly recovered. Tears started to fall down her cheeks Mikan couldn't help, but fall into Natsume's arms. "I love you too!" Mikan said through her sobs, "You were the only person to really realize that, that I'm not a bad person. I really, really love you Natsume."

"Then stay with me."
Mikan looked up at Natsume and more tears came flooding out. "It's not that simple!" Mikan screamed, "Everyone…the other organizations know about me…they have people watching me! No one is safe when they come in contact with me!"

Natsume held onto Mikan tightly. "I won't let you leave." Natsume said stubbornly.

"Please stop." Mikan pleaded, "I don't want you to die…please Natsume…stay away from me…or I'll have to erase your memories today."

"I don't care! I'll still remember you no matter how many times you make me forget!"

Mikan stopped crying and pulled away from Natsume's embrace. She smiled her angel like smile and then passionately kissed Natsume. Natsume kissed her back, but shortly after, Mikan backed away and pressed her index finger to his forehead a golden light started to shine. "Good bye." Mikan whispered, "My only love."
One single tear ran down her cheek and then she disappeared in the dark leaving Natsume's unconscious body leaning against the giant Sakura tree.
