Me: Hey Guys, the next chapter is here! I'm really glad everyone is enjoying this series.

Mikan: I'm not! What the hell is wrong with you anyway!

Natsume: Hmmm, I don't know, I kinda like this series

Me: *punches Natsume's shoulder and laughs* Of course you would Natsume. And Mikan, I make you pretty damn awesome in this series.

Mikan: R-Really?

Me: Yeah, Of Course! The main character always has to badass and epic.

Mikan: Cool!

Me: (hehehe, but Natsume has many good moments...) *cough*

Mikan: What were you laughing about Kyou?

Me: NOTHING! I don't own Gakuen Alice! T^T

"P—KA, WAKE U—"

"OI –OLKA WAKE UP"

"OI POLKA DOTS WAKE UP!"

Mikan suddenly opened her eyes and quickly sat up, hitting her head against Natsume's. HARD.

"Ow!" they shouted in sync. Mikan had definitely woken up.

"What the hell Natsume!" she shouted, rubbing her head.

"I should say the same!" he said as he got up from the bed and walked toward the Mirror, fixing his wet hair. He was such a narcissist. He had obviously just showered and he was dressed in dark jeans, a red long sleeved shirt covered with a black t-shirt. He was handsome, she gave him that. He then turned around to Mikan with a death glare that she happily returned.

"Why are you still here Polka" he said through his teeth. He was truly pissed off.

"Oh, Dear Natsume, I thought you wanted me to stay" she said with an innocent smile, growling the word 'stay' at the end. She then looked at the clock to see that it was 7:36am.

"I was having such a nice dream" she said as she turned her head to find Natsume back on the bed, a few inches from her face. She almost fell back off the bed but he caught her by her waist and pulled her into a kiss. She was surprised so she tried to push away from him but he had a lot more strength than her and she was still a little weak from yesterday. The kiss was delicate yet passionate, deep, needing, gentle, apologetic and thoughtful. She didn't know a kiss could hold so many emotions. She breathed in his dreamy scent. It was mixed with expensive cologne and soap this time. Her heart was beating faster than it had with the last few kisses and her face had reached a new type of red. He was dangerous for her with those crimson eyes, low sexy voice and that hair, oh that hair that looked good all the time. Not to mention everything else. She knew this deep down but his ego, selfishness and attitude hid all of this from her sight and she just grew to hate him ever since her first day where he stole her panties when she was 10. Ever since, Ruka had made it up by been nice and helpful but Natsume stayed the same and also kept calling her Polka dots. Now she found that he liked her all this time and he was now kissing her, while she was running low on oxygen. He noticed this and pulled away.

"Natsume! What hell was that for!?" she asked with anger in her eyes, breathing heavily.

"That, my dear, was for your attack before" he answered with and evil smirk on his face, referring to the clash of their heads earlier on.

Before she could go off at him, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her to her feet. She was surprised and was not used to walking yet so she started to fall and had to use his chest to stop herself so she didn't fall on her face. He then steadied her and she then was ready to walk. Without looking back, she walked to the door, walked out and clos-*cough*-slammed it harder than Hotaru had which he didn't think was possible.

He then stared at the door with a wide smirk on his face.

"She too cute for her own good" he said to himself. "And way too interesting" he added before he turned to his bedside table and grabbed a manga.

She stomped to her room and walked in, slamming her door, but not as hard as she did to Natsume's door. She then leaned against her door and slid down against it and put her head in her hands.

"That was too close" she sighed in her hands. "Why does he have to like me of all people?! And why the hell am I falling for him!" she growled in frustration. She then showered and got dressed after she finished cursing herself. She wore a white tank top with a chiffon yellow miniskirt and white ballet flats. Since it was cold, she bought a long, double side chiffon yellow coat to match. She left her hair down, hoping it would keep her warm through the day but wore sugar pink ear just in case. She went outside, oblivious to all the guys looking at her as she was the angel they thought she was. She didn't know how, but she even had a fan club that was as big as Natsume's. It took her months to find out as well. When she walked outside, she saw Ruka just up ahead and called his name.

"Ruka-pyon!" she called to him. He responded to his name and turned to see his crush. He looked at what she was wearing and he felt the blood rush to his cheeks.

"Morning Ruka-pyon!" she said sweetly as she was now standing right across from him. She noticed his red cheeks and got suspicious.

"Hey Ruka-pyon, are you sick? Your cheeks are a bit red" she said as she lifted her hand to his forehead to check if he had a temperature. He blushed more when her hand got to her forehead and then gently got her hand and took it away.

"I-I'm fine Sakura-san" he said, trying not to stutter.

She then smiled in relief which made his heart beat faster. She also had her hair out which wasn't something that happened a lot. He then thought he should cut off the silence.

"I'm going to check on the animals" he said as he pointed in the direction of where he was heading. "Wanna come?" he asked politely.

"You bet!" she said as her smile got wider and more beautiful. Before he started blushing again he turned around and headed in the direction of the barn. They talked on the way and she told Ruka that she had to have Natsume as a bodyguard. He had known most of it because Natsume had called and told him. He listened nonetheless because one, they would have nothing to talk about and two, he liked hearing her voice. When they got to the barn, Ruka and Mikan fed the animals and he made some changes to get them so it was ready for the winter. When they left, they went to get some lunch where they found Natsume. Ruka pointed him out but she ignored him and sat down at another table. None of her friends were there and she definitely did not want to sit next to Natsume. She started eating and Yuu came and sat with her since she was sitting alone and none of his other friends were there. Her smile lit up and they talked until both of them had finished. Natsume on the other hand, knew he had done something wrong and started sulking. Ruka laughed at his state.

"Natsume, aren't you her bodyguard? Shouldn't you be with her?" Ruka said hopefully to lighten his spirits. Natsume's eyes lit up and he went over to Mikan.

"Oi Polka" he said, interrupting their conversation about Hotaru.

She glared at Natsume. "What is it Natsume" she said grouchily.

"What do you mean? I'm your bodyguard right? I have to be here" he said with his usual stoic face. She had forgotten about the 'with her all or any the time thing'. She then excused herself from Yuu, saying they would continue the conversation another time. She stood up and walked past Natsume and he followed her. She walked back to her dorm and when she got to her room he walked in as well and closed the door so they were alone. She looked down as her fists shook in anger.

"Natsume! Just" she was about to shout but she lowered her voice to normal instead. "Please leave"

He didn't know how much he had pissed her off but he left since he thought he would be killed if he stayed. He left the room and she could finally calm down. The next day, she stayed in to do homework and study a bit. At about 2:00pm, Natsume had gotten bored so he went to her room with a manga, using his bodyguard excuse and read manga on the couch. She did feel a bit safer with him there since she was slightly scared from the AAO still but she was still annoyed at him. She went with him to the cafeteria and met up with her friends. She went back to her room alone, thank god, and went to sleep. The next day on Monday, she had to wake up early to get ready for school. She showered and got dressed in her uniform. She had grown taller since her skirt was getting shorter on her. She knew she should get a new skirt soon. She then got the rest of herself ready and left 20 minutes before her classes started. When she got in the classroom, most of the class was there since there were only 10 minutes till it started. When she got to her desk, she found a large, wrapped present. It was wrapped in polka dot wrapping paper so she knew who it was from. She looked at him to find him reading his manga then looked back to the present. She opened it and found 10 large boxes of fluff puffs as well as a small card saying sorry. A smile appeared on her face but ten boxes!? And large boxes at that. She stomped over to Natsume to see him reading his manga, not noticing her.

"Natsume, Why would you give me ten, large boxes of fluff puffs!?" she said with her hands on her hips.

"Well…" he said as he looked away from his manga to her. "Eleven would have been too much" he said with a large smirk on his face. She stomped back to her desk and put the box away. First lesson was English so they were just reading for a book report. Mikan wrote a note and launched it with a rubber band that hit Natsume straight in the forehead. He grumpily took it and opened it. It read 'Thank you' and he almost smiled but he had to keep his stoic face on. They then went back to reading and went through the rest of the day. It went quite fast but it was a good day nonetheless. Mikan was in a good mood and skipped to her dorm to get dressed. She hadn't seen Natsume follow her or seen him around so she figured he had stuff to do. Not that she wanted him there… she just felt… safer with him around. She found she had stopped in thought and dismissed the thought for later and kept skipping. Mikan was in a wonderful mood because she was going to go shopping with her friends and with all the stuff that's been going on, it was exactly what she needed.

On Natsume's side, he had heard about the shopping trip and was sulking because he wanted to spend time with her. He lay on his couch, thinking of Mikan. He thought about going with her and using the excuse of bodyguard but he didn't feel like Hotaru's torture as well as Mikan resenting him. He thought Mikan would get upset if he came along and ruined her fun so he thought it was best to let her go on her shopping trip. He was about to take a nap but a knock on the door stopped him.

Me: Ten boxes, huh?

Natsume: Yep

Me: Not bad...

Mikan: Who's at the door!?

Me: *cough* no one you hate

Mikan: Damn it! Do you always have to leave cliffhangers?

Me: Hey, It isn't that bad. I mean, just try to read the Gakuen Alice Manga. SO MANY CLIFFHANGERS!

Natsume: I know right?

Me: Anyway, so if you could Review and Favourite that would be great! (But only if you like the story)

UNTIL NEXT TIME
