Chapter 10 – Who can Come to Save Me?

"Hey, you saw Mikan treated Natsume so good. Do you feel a little jealous?" Yuu asked Ruka, who was so mad seeing Mikan and Natsume together.

"You also want to find someone to accompany you?" Koko asked.

"Yes," Ruka says.

"Then I tell you," Yuu says.

"YOU ARE IN LOVE!!!" Yuu and Koko shouted this at Ruka as Taiki watched them pointing their fingers on Ruka.

"Well said, this kind of feeling is just like lemon soft drink. It's sweet yet sour," Ruka said.

"Well, since we're your brothers, tell us who she is." Koko said.

"Yeah, we helped you to think of ways," Yuu says as he puts his arm on Taiki's shoulder, "Ok, come on…" Koko puts Ruka's arm on his shoulder, just what like friends do.

"Hey! What you meant is who there's no such thing. No such thing, no such thing, sssh! No such thing, no such thing." Ruka ended the conversation.

Back at dormitory no. 2, Senri Nakao, the school's sweetheart was drinking juice, while other men were massaging his shoulders and giving him food.

"Senri, this is the chocolate my mom brought back from Swiss." The guy said and he feeds Senri with the chocolate. Ruka happens to pass by Senri.

"Wow, delicious." Senri said.

"Why do I have this special feeling towards Mikan? It can't be, I won't fall in love with a guy. This feeling must be just temporary. T.V. shows always do like that!" Ruka said. Then, he saw Senri with men surrounding him.

"You guys press more seriously." Senri says to the guys behind him massaging.

Suddenly, a ding was heard, Ruka thought of an idea. Ruka walked towards Senri, pulled him towards him and held his face. They were inches apart. Senri was shocked, while Ruka, mad. They both stared at each other for a while, and it was like Ruka was going to kiss Senri. Senri slapped Ruka's right cheek.

"Hey," Senri said as he was still shocked by Ruka's behavior.

"Like I said, even if I looked at the school's sweetheart's face, "Ruka said as he turns to Senri, "But my physical and mental didn't react at all. I'm not gay!" Ruka said as he was playing with Senri's face.

"(Laughs) I'm a real man!" Ruka said this as he was raising his hand in the air and cheering himself.

"I'm 5 feet, 4'7 feet, 4'6 feet, I'm a real man!" He was already doing ballet that time and fell. Senri saw him and said, "Pervert, what is he trying to do?"

Ruka was dancing in the hallway until he reached the way to his room.

"Oh yeah," Ruka said, "Almost forgot to borrow notes from Natsume. He should be in his room." Then, Ruka went to the door, knocked on it. Nobody answered so he just entered inside.

"Anyone here?" Ruka called as he sees the sleeping Mikan. She slept maybe due to waiting, for she was sleeping while sitting down. Ruka went to her.

"Mikan, Mikan, if you sleep like this, tomorrow your neck will be aching." Ruka said, he was trying to wake up Mikan, but fast asleep. As he went closer, he felt the spark that he felt when Mikan held his hand. It's like whenever he's with her, he feels that feeling. Then, he heard some background music in his head. It was like he was falling in love with Mikan.

Not so long after, Natsume went out from the bathroom, only wearing his pants.

"Ruka, what are you doing here?" Natsume asked Ruka as he was dressing up.

"Me, uh, I was supposed to borrow English notes, borrow English notes." Ruka says, blushing.

"What's wrong with Mikan?" Natsume asked Ruka, "Why he slept on the floor?" Then, Mikan already woke up.

"What? Oh it's you Ruka," Mikan said, "Natsume you shower so long. I waited until I fell asleep already." Then, Mikan faces at Ruka, "Ruka, what's wrong with you, your face is so red. Are you having fever?" Mikan asked Ruka as she felt his forehead, but Ruka stood back. He was as red as a tomato that time.

"Fever, I was here to look for Medicine." Ruka said as he looked at the medicine cabinet near the bed, "No medicine."

"Yeah, don't have." Mikan replied.

"Then I better go to the doctor." Ruka said as he was running away towards the door.

"Hey, didn't you want to borrow some English notes?" Natsume called.

"Arrgghhh! Who can come to save me?" Ruka yelled.

Mikan went to the bathroom already.

"Whoo," she says as she raises her leg.

"Beautiful leg, beautiful leg. Another beautiful leg goes down." She says this like Golemn's way of saying "My precious" in "the lord of the rings." "Argh tiny leg stretching, oh painful. Oh today my fire casting was so wonderful, that performance was really great. I hope Natsume will feel very touching." Mikan said as Natsume opens the door.

"Hey Mikan, what are you doing?" Natsume asked as Mikan sinks her legs under the bubbly bath tub. Mikan screamed after.

"Hey, did you see my watch?" Natsume asked.

"Your watch, hahaha." Mikan said as Natsume forgot that Mikan was a girl, so he looked away.

"Your watch is there." Mikan said, pointing to where the exact location of his watch was. "Above the box in there." Natsume took the watch quickly, never putting an eye on Mikan.

"Oh thanks, you continue." Natsume said to Mikan. Mikan tried to look if Natsume was already gone, and she sighed in relief.

"Why did I forget to lock the door," Mikan says, "But just now should be ok. He should be seeing nothing. But wait, do guys bubble bath?" Mikan says to herself.

"I'm such an idiot," Natsume says, "How come I forgot that Mikan's a girl?" Then, he said to Mikan, "You know the bathroom is shared one. Why don't you put the curtain? Fool."

At that very night, Mikan can't sleep. She kept on moving and moving the double bed, which annoyed Natsume much because Mikan was on top. She can still remember what happened a while ago.

FLASHBACK:

"Hey Mikan, what are you doing?" Natsume asked as Mikan sinks her legs under the bubbly bath tub. Mikan screamed after.

"Hey, did you see my watch?" Natsume asked.

"Your watch, hahaha." Mikan said as Natsume forgot that Mikan was a girl, so he looked away.

"Your watch is there." Mikan said, pointing to where the exact location of his watch was. "Above the box in there." Natsume took the watch quickly, never putting an eye on Mikan.

"Oh thanks, you continue." Natsume said to Mikan. Mikan tried to look if Natsume was already gone, and she sighed in relief.

"Why did I forget to lock the door," Mikan says, "But just now should be ok. He should be seeing nothing. But wait, do guys bubble bath?" Mikan says to herself.

END OF FLASHBACK……………………………..

Natsume can't sleep either, remembering what happened to Mikan.

On the other hand, Ruka stays awake, sitting on a chair.

"Oh, I'm not gay, I'm not gay, I'm not gay. I don't want to be gay. My boy scout will kick me out."

The next day, Mikan, Natsume and Ruka didn't get enough sleep, so their eye bugs were showing. Then, the three noticed.

"If only Ruka then it's ok. But how come I see Mikan and Natsume also with those panda eyes?" Yuu asked.

Ruka replied, "I will also have trouble sometimes, who can understand the feeling of a flower like boy?" Every body got weird by Ruka's answer.

"Hey, you think you can stop us from asking just by saying that?" Koko asked.

"Anyways, you guys won't understand even if I tell you. Oh sorry, you guys found out fast." Ruka smiled at them. Then Mikan went closer to Ruka. She knelt down and asked him.

"Ruka, what's wrong with you? Are you having trouble? You can tell me. I'll help you think of a solution." Mikan said as Ruka paused and looked at Mikan.

"Mikan, can you please don't look at me like that again?" Ruka asked Mikan. Then, Mikan started to blink again. Ruka was terrified.

"Gosh, the feeling comes again." Ruka said. Then after, Ruka ran away.

"Did I do anything wrong?" Mikan asked the three. Taiki shook his head as Yuu stood up and said; "Mikan, don't bother him. He's always like that. Do you want breakfast? Have you eaten?"

"Oh, its okay, I've eaten already." Mikan replied.

"Ok, then we go buy for ourselves." After the three went away, Mikan saw Natsume sleeping on his desk. Then, Mikan went out.

"Oh, it's aching," Mika says as she was putting her hand on her lower abdomen, "The 1st day's always so painful every time. I really myself as a girl. Hope Mr. Mei Tian got some medicine there; otherwise I really can't stand it!" Mikan says as she went to the doctor.
