Chapter 8
"we want you to…."
Normal pov
Well, they were done with lunch, as always, the group was in complete chaos! Guys vs girls was the theme, everyone enjoyed the afternoon, well except for our favourite brunette. Now she's in our music room, playing the piano with her favourite piece, yurima 'river flows on you'. As she played, nervousness and regret was visible in her piece, she kept remembering what the group asked her to do,
Flashback
"we want you to…" tsubasa started, but before he could finish, hotaru joined their unusual conversation,
"…to dress up as a cat later, and" hotaru paused for awhile, she saw mikan's amusing expression: pure shock and surprise.
"and, sleep with hyuuga for this night only" when hotaru noticed everyone's amused expression, she just smirked and looked at mikan, she didn't even move, she was still processing what happened, same old slow mikan. Koko was the first one to regain his consciousness and got a stick from wh-knows-where and used it to poke mikan,
POKE -sleep
POKE -with
POKE -jerk
POKE -hyuuga
PO-?
"what the? I'll be sleeping with that jerk bastard? Hotaruuu~!´plea-" before mikan could finish, hotaru aimed her baka gun to mikan
BAKA BAKA BAKA!
"neee~ hotaru you meanie!" mikan pouted as she rubbed the sore part on her head.
"don't worry baka, it's just for one night, I'll be putting my cameras in his room. And don't forget that you'll be wearing a cute cat cosplay later." With those last words, she left the crying mikan, and the flabbergasted group, 'this will be a heck of a vacation' everyone thought.
End of flashback
'this will be a heck of a vacation' mikan thought as she went to her room and hugged her knees close to her.
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK!
While I was going for the door, I was cursing that perverted natsume under my breath.
"damn that hyuuga!" until I opened the door and flashed one of my fake smiles to heck-who-knows and when I opened my eyes, I saw…..
Natsume pov
I was knocking on polka's door just to clear something up, of course who wouldn't be surprised when out-of-nowhere, a hot, beautiful model will be sleepi- wait, I described that childish girl hot and beautiful? 'natsume, you're officially in love with her!' someone inside of my head insisted,
'who asked you to answer? And who are you mr.-I'll-just-pop-into-someone's-thought!' I retorted back coldly.
'duh, I'm your conscience mr.-I'm-a-genius-but-i-don't-know-that-i-have-a-conscience, and you are in love with mikan yukihara!' he shouted excitedly
'what the heck are you talking about? How could I be in love with a bubbly, childish, immature girl like her?' I still don't believe what this stupid conscience of mine.
'hmm, that reminds me of someone, any guess who she is?' he asked teasingly.
'what are you talking about?' I asked to him, err, myself, clueless.
'not what, but who! It's mi-chi! You're childhood friend, you're first love!' he shouted, I mean, I, argh, let's just use he, sheesh! He shouted irritatingly.
'okay, okay! Fine, but did you ever think that she still remembers me? After ten years of waiting, I had enough.' I retaliated with a defeated tone.
'tsk tsk, oi, don't give up you moron! What if she does, and those things that you remembered about her when you're with mikan, how do you explain that?' he asked
'hn, just my imagination, I guess. But don't-' I never have time to finish my statement, I heard a lot of cursing about, well, me! 'what the?' the last statement I heard before she opened the door was,
"damn that hyuuga!". 'polka you're sooo dead!' I thought while I covered my face with my bangs.
When she opened the door for me, I saw her fake smiles, ever wondering how I noticed that? Well, I don't know myself; all I know is that it looked so familiar to me. Then, when polka finally realized who I am, she suddenly jumped back and shielded herself with a pillow,
"oi, natsume! W-who told you to come in here?" she shouted angrily, but she's still stammering, probably 'cause she noticed that I heard her cursing me to hell, which I sooo did.
"tsk, you should probably call me 'damn hyuuga' you idio-" I swallowed hard, polka just stood up, without her pillow, and put her hands to her waist, she's wearing a pink cat-maid cosplay!
With pink cat ears and a lacy headband with black linings, just like the ones for maids, her hair is in two pigtails. She's wearing a lacy white with black lining cat collar with a pink bell in the middle, her maid dress, just like her collar, is white with black lacy edges, in the upper part of her dress is a heart-shaped hole, that was cut in the lower half with a pink cloth, probably to not show her cleavage;
it has loose, with oval hole at each side that gave perfect view to her creamy white shoulders and at the end of it is a black ribbon, white sleeves that reached 6 inches above her elbows. Her belt was a black cloth with visible pink lines and small white hearts in both sides. The lower part is a fluffy, balloon skirt with black heart lining on the edges and has light pink laces inside it. (what? I didn't peek! I just saw a part of it when she got up! Sheesh!) It only reached between five of six inches above her knees. She's also wearing black boots that reached six inches below her knees. For her accessories are a silver necklace, which didn't go with her cosplay by the way, silver heart dangling earings, for her arms is a pair of pink, loose, gloves that ended above her hands, (so it's only for her arms) with long holes that showed her arms and has two white ribbons, one on top and at the bottom.
In short, she looks like a werid, but cute, cat maid. Wait, i said cute? I didn't even know that it's a part of my vocabulary! Argh! I didn't notice a blush creep to my cheeks. But i noticed polka giggling at me.
"oi, polka what are you giggling at? And why are you wearing that, that outfit? Didn't you know that you can be seen by any bastards outside?" i was enraged, i sounded like a dad.
"hmp! I didn't like to wear this, too, you know! Hotaru gave me two consequences for what i've done earlier, one, this," she explained as she gestured, like she was disgusted, to her cosplay. I was holding back a chuckle because of her appearance, since i already know whhy she's looking like that. But something more is making me nervous,
"wait, will you be going out like that?" i asked
"huh? Oh, of course not! I won't like many attention be focused on me you know!" she said while she giggled.
"so, what's the next consequence, baka?" i asked, with a sigh of relief. Before she continued, she glared at me
"the next one is, mr. Impatient, is t-that, umm, i wi-will be sleep-ping with y-you tonight." With that last statement, a blush was visible in her cheeks and plus she was stammering! What a view this is! I just smirked, so it's all planned by that imai, huh? Oh well. When she heard me smirking, she looked at me like she was ready to kill me anytime.
"if you do something to me tonight, you pervert, I swear you won't be seeing the sun the next day!" she said while she pointed accusingly at me, I just stifled a chuckle and said,
"tch, who would do that to a childish girl like you? I would prefer the mature ones. Oh and you remind me about swearing, like the ones you're saying about me, huh?" with that, her eyes got larger and she quickly ran for her life while I chase her.
Hotaru pov
'my plan's working. soon, those two idiots will realize that fate made them cross each other's paths, again' with that in mind, I closed the door to mikan's room and went to mine where everyone is expecting some news.
"So, how's your plan?" anna asked me curiously.
"It's going better than I thought it would be. Now we can safely say that operation 1: get them close to each other, was a complete success." I answered nonchalantly.
"imai, you said that there are two purposes for this plan of yours, we know the first was to get them to like, or better yet, date each other," tsubasa stopped, as if giving me a chance to tell them the second reason. 'They shouldn't know first, or else it will be a complete disaster!'
"The second is, just for us to have a blast this vacation, that's all. And I won't stand it if I will be staying in a house with those two ignoring their presence." 'Good reasoning, at least it's true.' I congratulated myself. They looked satisfied enough, well, except for my fiancé. 'Does he suspect something about this?' I asked myself nervously, but of course, I didn't show it to them, when I dismissed everyone, ruka stayed and asked me,
"so, hotaru, what is your real reason, I saw from your eyes awhile ago that you're nervous, care to tell me?" he asked as he come near to me.
"that's my true reason, baka." I replied, with my back facing him. He then took a step closer to me and whispered to my ear,
"oh, really? If it's true, then show me." He said, his closeness made me my back shiver. I looked at him in the eyes and told him,
"I'm not hiding anything, I just want everyone to have fun." As I said the last word, I gave a peck on his lips and went on my way. But before I close my door, I saw him, blushing furiously. 'my plan worked, but sorry, ruka, I have to keep a low profile in this.'
Normal pov
We last left our brunette, running from the revenge-hungry natsume hyuuga. She's now on a branch of the sakura tree, hiding from her predator, (A/N: she's still wearing her cat-maid costume). But seeing that she lost him, she's now thinking of a way to come down, while ruffling her costume, which is making it more difficult for her to climb down. 'how did I even managed to climb this high? For god's sake, you're scared of heights, mikan!'
CRICKLE….CRICKLE…..CRACK!
"what the- kyyaaaa!" I screamed at the top of my lungs.
"help!"
The next thing I know, I'm dangling on one of the branches. I was thinking of someone who could help me, the first name that came in my head is...
"natsume…"
HEY GUYS~! well, that's all, please review 'kay?
