Me: So, here's where the games begin. I've started doing character POV's now so, tell me if you don't like it or if you do like it.
Mikan: *Reads script* Are you serious? You're mean.
Natsume: *reads script* come on, Where the hell is my badassery?
Me: ...NO COMPLAINTS!
Natsume and Mikan: ...
Me: That's what I thought
Mikan's POV
I couldn't move at all. I couldn't speak nor hear anything. I even wondered if I was breathing but was too scared to check. I saw a man with a gun, but it wasn't just a man with a gun, it was a man with a gun that was pointed at Natsume. I watched the inaudible argument happen and then, I heard a gunshot. That was all I had heard, nothing else. It had gone to Natsume. Natsume had been shot and was now bleeding uncontrollably and my eyes wouldn't close to avoid the scene. I tried to run over to him but I couldn't move. I was screaming his name but nothing came out. I felt tears running down my face. Not thinking it could get any worse, the man pointed the gun at me. I started screaming as I heard the gunshot and pain took over my body, before my vision turned to fog and I awoke.
I woke up to Natsume looking down to me, worry written on his face and concern swimming in his eyes. It sounded like he had been calling my name for a while, shaking me. I realised I was screaming and sweating and the pain still shot through me. When I realised, I stopped and looked at Natsume, tears piercing my eyes. They were threatening to come out. I then leaned into his chest and started crying. Luckily, the walls were sound proof. I felt his arms wrap around my waist in a comforting way, and he then pushed me over to the middle of the bed and lay next to me, holding me in his arms as I sobbed. He was running a hand through my hair and speaking in a low and gentle voice.
"Its fine now, you're all right. Shhh, calm down Mikan. He was so warm and I felt like I could stay there forever. He held me tighter in his calming embrace and my sobbing changed into a small whimper and my pain dimmed. He then kissed my forehead and kept running his hand through my hair. I tilted my head up and he just looked into my eyes. I moved closer to him and I kissed him. It was small but he responded and kissed back gently. I then pulled away.
"Don't you ever die on me Natsume" I said quietly and then snuggled into his chest, breathing in his heavenly scent that only belonged to him. I was still crying but it was only silent tears, the whimper was gone. He then pulled me in closer and kissed my hair, continuing to run his hand through it.
"I won't" he whispered. "I promise" and at that, I found myself falling back to sleep. Luckily, I didn't have any more nightmares. It was more like a dreamless, but restful sleep.
I awoke, still in the arms of Natsume. I found that he was sleeping so I wouldn't be able to move even if I wanted to, not without waking him anyway. I saw it was 6:47am and I remembered that we had the rest of the week off to recover. I then felt the arms around me tighten, and I looked up to see Natsume, watching me with caring eyes.
"Are you okay now?" he asked, concern in his voice.
"Y-Yeah" I said as I grew a little nervous. "Thanks for been there" I said since I really owed him. Like he was reading my thoughts, he gently tucked a piece of stray hair behind my ear.
"Helping you wasn't any trouble" he said gently ( and we all know why it was no trouble). I smiled at him we stayed like that for a while. Breakfast was going to be ready in about ten minutes.
"Natsume, we have to go to the hospital to have a check up" I said, remembering what our orders were. "So we should get ready and grab breakfast soon". I said, pulling out of his hold gently. He then looked at me, silently asking if I was really alright. My reaction last night must have made him worry. I nodded in response and he gave me a weak smile and left the room after putting on his shoes. I then went into the bathroom and started my morning routines then got dressed into a deep red sweater dress (a long sweater basically) and some black tights. I then put on boots that ended just above my knees. I stared at the white box that held the bracelet and then, after a few minutes of staring at it, I ignored it. I put my hair up into a bun and walked out to meet Natsume in the hallway. He was leaning against the wall, his upper body leaning leaning forward a little, looking down and hands in his pockets. He was wearing black jeans, a black T-shirt that had three white diagonal lines across it. He was wearing his usual earrings that made him look good and his hair was stylishly messy. He wore black converse shoes and noticed me when I started walking towards him. He smirked.
"You take a while to get ready" he said widening his smirk.
"Whatever" I said as I punched his arm lightly. He rubbed it and faked hurt and I grinned.
"You're such a wimp" I said as I grabbed his wrist.
"Let's just go" I said and let go of his wrist as soon as he was following me.
Natsume's POV
The incident last night was meant to be kept secret, so in fact, everyone knew about it. Obviously not about the act or the kiss but they knew about the AAO trying to get Mikan and I and that I was her bodyguard. That was also meant to be kept a secret but, hey, this is Alice Academy. I didn't see Mikan wearing the bracelet so I haven't yet succeeded. I don't expect her to wear it just yet. Breakfast consisted of many pointless questions and worry. It probably wasn't real worry toward me though, only to Mikan (because only his fans came to him). We were the only ones in normal clothes as well since everyone else had school. When we could get out of the crowd, we went to the hospital to check if we were actually hurt. Nothing was wrong with us physically but, I'm worried about Mikan's mental state. She was screaming in her sleep and then she started crying when she woke up. If her dreams (or more like nightmares), are doing that to her, then I'm worried what will happen in future nights. I pulled male Imai (Subaru, became an official doctor/surgeon) away from Mikan and told him about her situation. He then gave orders that I have to stay with her at night to one, protect Mikan from the AAO and two, if she keeps having these reactions, calm her down and then tell him about it. I agreed to this and he told her that it was for health purposes as well as it been easier to protect them when they're in one room. She wasn't as annoyed or upset as I would have thought. I thought she would be angry but she stayed calm and nodded. We walked out of the hospital and went back to the dorms.
Mikan's POV
I was a little annoyed at Subaru's decision about Natsume staying with me at night as well as day but I think it's safer that way. The AAO thing really freaked me out, not to mention what happened with the nightmare. The AAO seem to target me first so I'll feel better with Natsume, plus, it's not like he'll try anything (…). We walked into the special star dorms in silence until we got to my room. We had decided it would be better to stay in my room since barriers had been put around it. I offered to set up a bed for Natsume, like a futon or something but he just said the couch is fine. It was a big and comfortable couch but I still felt bad that he had to stay in my room when he didn't want to (right XD). We decided to stay inside since I wanted to study because I had been getting behind on maths. Damn calculus. Natsume helped me understand what I couldn't and he read manga. I don't even think he studies. We talked about a lot of stuff and he teased me the whole time but spending time with him wasn't so bad…I mean, I don't hate him anymore, but I don't like him either. Those past kisses, when I felt I wanted to kiss back were just my hormones. I'm 16 so it must be that. I don't like him but he does look good so it must be that. It must be. Just hormones, yeah, it has to be. We stayed in my room and ate lunch since we didn't want to be ambushed by people again. Yeah, I love my friends but I need a break from everyone. We went down early so there wouldn't be as many people in the dining hall for dinner. Hotaru was already there with Ruka. We sat with them and ate, joking around and stuff. All of us left when too many people started showing up. We continued talking until it was time for us to part ways. They went to the three star dorms and Natsume and I went to the special star dorms. I was kind of scared since it was night and I still hadn't gotten over what had happened but Natsume made me feel a lot safer. We went to my room and walked in, closing and locking the door behind us. I usually did before but now I'm more cautious with locking it. It was around 7:15pm now so I did some homework I had gotten from my teachers earlier in the day. Three hours later, I had finished and was really sleepy. Natsume did his as well but finished about half an hour before me so he read manga while I finished. I dragged myself to bed after turning the light off and noticed Natsume, with an arm covering his eyes, sleeping. He looked so peaceful. She then lay down, and went to sleep seconds after hitting the pillow.
