Chapter 14 – Jealousy

Mikan was walking by, seeing girls giving boys chocolates, and boys receiving them. Boys and girls dating, somehow she realized it was Valentine's Day.

"Oh, so today is Valentine's day. But I'm a guy. How can I send chocolates?" Mikan says to herself. Then, 2 cute girls went towards Mikan.

"Hello, I am Maruko from the Gakuen Alice on the other side. I heard you and Shuichi had a fight. I never thought that someone could stand up to him. I think you're so cool! This is a little gift. I hope you like it…" The girl was offering chocolates to Mikan.

"That's for me?" Mikan asked as the girl nodded.

"I don't have a special wish. Don't misunderstand." The girl said.

"But I'm a girl. No, no… I'm a guy right now. This is so confusing." Mikan thought as the other girl went to Natsume.

"Natsume," The other girl ran towards him, "Natsume, this is a little gift from me. Please accept this box of chocolates. I've admired you since my first year high school, and I'm very glad that you have decided to fire cast again. Also, if you don't have a girlfriend, I like you very much!"

After Mikan heard this, her heart broke. She freaked out by the answer the girl said to Natsume. Then, Natsume pulled his hand from his pocket, Mikan, feeling tenser than ever.

"Natsume, you're really going to accept it? You chose the wrong girl. If the chocolate is accepted, the guy likes the girl and they'll start dating!" Mikan thought.

As Natsume was about to hold the gift, Mikan was saying "NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Natsume held the gift, and put it down as the girl was holding it.

"I'm sorry, I don't eat sweets." Natsume said to the girl. Mikan sighed in relief, but she's still freaking out.

"Does that mean you won't accept it?' The girl asked Natsume.

"Sorry," Natsume replied.

"No, it's me who should be sorry." The girl said as Mikan was losing her breath. "I will keep on rooting for you Happy Valentine's day!" The girl said to Natsume. After that, she ran away. The girl, who asked Mikan, followed her too.

"Hey Mikan, why does your facial expression look so weird?" Natsume asked Mikan. "Are you not feeling well?"

"Nope… Very well." Mikan said as she made an expression-she was like crying.

"Then that's good." Natsume replied.

"Why… Why is my heart beating so fast? Why that is when she confessed to Natsume, my heart was hurting? I don't feel so good." Mikan said to herself.

Mikan was in the doctor's clinic, hoping that the doctor would know what her sickness is.

"This is called jealousy, Mikan." The doctor said to Mikan.

"Jealousy, what am I jealous for?" Mikan asked as she was sitting on the chair, staying miserable.

"Because you want to tell Natsume that 'I am a girl and I like you very much.' But you can't do that. If that's not jealousy, then what is it?" Doctor Mei Tian asked.

"So that's what it is," Mikan stood up from the chair, "Then what should I do?"

"Tell him, tell Natsume I'm a girl, and I-."

"No way!" Mikan shook her head after.

"Then, why did you come here in Gakuen Alice all boys' school?" Dr. Mei Tian asked Mikan.

"You once told me that you want to stay by Natsume's side. If you don't return to being a girl and date Natsume, you'll just have to be a guy for now." Dr. Mei Tian.

"Right now, the most important thing is to watch Natsume fire cast. Because I'm one of his loyal FANS! I haven't watched Natsume fire cast with my very own eyes yet. I can't just give up like that. So," Mikan says.

"So you choose to be a guy?" Dr. Mei Tian asked.

"Yes," Mikan replies.

"Then that's a very good decision, very suitable for you. But if one day, a pretty lady comes to steal Natsume away from you, will you be okay with that? This is your decision, not mine." The doctor said.

"I'll be okay with it. Who says I don't want to be a guy?" Mikan asked herself.

"So relaxed with it? You're not really becoming a guy, aren't you?" The dr. asked once more.

"Hey, how's that possible? But teacher (or doctor), I think every time I bother you like this, I'm very sorry. How about you teach me some new tricks? It'll change everything." Mikan asked the school doctor.

"Only you'll be the one doing that." The doctor replied.

"Or, how about the nurse? I can be the nurse." Mikan says.

"I don't want to." Dr. Mei Tian replied.

"What about a psychic? I can scare away the ghosts! Teacher, you'll definitely will," Mikan says as Dr. Mei Tian goes closely to her ear.

"THIS IS A SCHOOL INFIRMARY!!!" Dr. Mei Tian shouted as the students in the hallway heard it.

Shuichi was outside. Asking every student where is Natsume.

"Student, do you know where the school arena is?" He asked the students madly. The people were afraid of him, they'd often run just to avoid him.

"Student, take me to the school arena." Shuichi asked the other student, but they ran.

Then, Mikan was coming. She was walking by until Shuichi asked her.

"Little friend," He called as he grabbed her collar. Then, they both looked at each other.

"YOU?!" They both said.

"Aren't you the girl from last time? Why are you here? This was supposed to be an all boys' school." Shuichi asked Mikan.

"I'm a guy of course, at a guys' school. So weird of you." Mikan answered at Shuichi. Shuichi held Mikan's arm as Mikan turned around and asked him "What are you doing?"

"I really thought you were a girl!" Shuichi said.

"Don't be ridiculous." Mikan said in a low, heavy voice. "Say it, why are you here at our school?"

"To watch Natsume's practice." Shuichi whispered to Mikan's ear as her mouth opened wide.

"Sorry, you came on the wrong date. Today, all of them are on break. There's no way they'll be there. You better go." Mikan answered.

"From my understanding of Natsume, he is hiding somewhere in the school secretly practicing." Shuichi said to Mikan. Mikan's mouth widened again.

"You, you mind your own business. Don't think you understand Natsume. I don't want to bother with you." Mikan looks like she was such in a hurry, she walked fast.

"Really," Shuichi grabbed Mikan after, "Then this will be good. How about you become the tour guide and give me a tour around Gakuen Alice."

"I don't want to." Mikan said as Shuichi lifted her. Then, Shuichi walked towards the arena.
