Mikan's POV
"So explain to me again why you are dying the tips of your hair black," Misaki asked.
"Just wanna new change since I'm starting school tomorrow."
"You threw out the heels that the school assigned and three days ago you sprayed all of your clothes so they all had a touch of black to them. As much as I love you expressing your individuality, why?"
"Just because and those heels are really painful."
I touched my just dyed black tips. Perfect. Now if I ever meet him again he won't be able to recognize me under all the black. Besides black is actually a really nice color, it matches with everything. Then the door opened.
"Mikan-chan, Hi-sama was just by to drop off your schedule and we're in the same class."
"Really? Yay!"
"Oh, your hair looks nice."
"Thank you but now I'm wondering how to put it because my pigtails seem childish."
"I can help with that. Just take black ribbon, then make a single ponytail, and then put it like this so it lies on your shoulder. Doesn't that look good?"
"Yes. Hey is Rou-san in our class too?"
"Yeah. I'll show you where all of our classes are. Then during lunch tomorrow we can take a tour of school."
Now onto the next day…
"Now class we have a new student so make sure to treat her politely. Please come in Yukihara-san. "
I walked in the class wearing my boots since I couldn't wear the heels unless I tripped every 10 seconds. I also had my violin case on my back since Nobara told me to bring it.
"Won't you introduce yourself and your instrument?"
"Yukihara Mikan, violin."
"Does anyone have any questions for our new student? Yes Mashiro-san."
A girl with long white blonde hair spoke. "You're related to Misaki-senpai aren't you?"
"Yeah."
"Well don't think that just because the rest of you're family is amazing at music that you'll be the best of this school."
"Mashiro-san that is not a question."
"So what's your point," I asked in an emotionless voice.
"My point is that if you don't have any talent, don't think that your family's ability can change that."
"So you think that I don't have talent."
"Yeah."
Hmm... She's different then how the people at Alice were treating me. I like this school already.
"Wait you're not going to say anything?"
"Is there a reason for me to?"
"Not real-"
"Then I don't have anything to say."
Sensei looked back and forth between us. "Okay then… Yukihara-san why don't you just sit next to-"
"Sensei! Yashiro is breaking the piano again!"
"Just sit in the empty seat. Where is he this time?"
Then they both ran out. Does this normally happen? She sounded rather calm. Reminds me of Kotone –sensei. Let me see... the only available seat is next to Rou-san. And I wanted to sit next to Nobara-chan. Oh well. I walked to the seat until the blonde-haired girl blocked my way.
"What do you think you're doing?"
"Walking to my seat."
"You cannot sit next to Rou-sama."
"Why?"
"Because I said so."
I sighed. "Nobara-chan, can I sit next to your brother?"
"Sure. I don't think he'll mind."
"What she says doesn't matter."
"Then why does what you say matter?"
"Because I'm 11th best person in this school."
"She's the 3rd best."
"But this doesn't concern her it's between you, me and that seat."
For the love of- I sighed.
"Rou-san, can I sit next to you?"
"Sure."
"Wait! You can't just address Rou-sama with a simple san. Who do you think you are?"
"Didn't you hear Sensei? I'm Yukihara Mikan."
I decide to walk past her and sat down. Oi, that girl is annoying. The downside to this school is that there is an annoyance like her. And I wasted 12 minutes with her.
"Do you deal with her everyday?"
"Yep."
"And you survive?"
"Just barely. When'd you dye your hair?"
"Yesterday. Wanna try?"
"Not if you do it."
"What it's not like I'm going to dye your hair pink or something. Okay maybe purple… although green might work… "
"And that's definitely no."
"Not like a dark green. More like a grass green."
"Still no."
"How about…"
"Hey, new girl!"
I turned my head toward the annoying girl.
"Did you say something Baka?"
"Did you just call me Baka?"
"Do you have bad hearing? Yeah I called you a baka, Baka. "
"Why you-"
"Do you have something to say Mashiro-san?"
I looked toward the door. A woman with strawberry blonde hair and blue eyes…
"Koizumi-sensei! What are you doing here?"
Koizumi?
"I have told you before Mashiro-san that I do not tolerant people-"
"Bullying your students, but I wasn't making Ibaragi-san cry!"
"It's rude to interrupt someone who was talking and it is unlady-like to yell. Furthermore you are harassing one of my students I don't accept that either."
"But she's not one of your students."
"Last I heard the younger Yukihara is the best in school."
"But she-"
"If you continue to test my patience you do know the consequences don't you?"
"I'm sorry Sensei."
"Now apologize to Yukihara-san."
She turned to me. "Sorry."
"If I am here again all of you will be punished. Understood?"
Everyone said," Understood Koizumi-sensei."
She has quite the authority doesn't she? Those blue eyes… Who do they remind me of? I remember seeing her picture before, but there's somewhere else I've seem them. But where exactly? Eh it'll come to me eventually. She then left without another word.
Later…
"Nobara-chan exactly who is Koizumi-sensei?"
"Well, she's a teacher here who's a little strict. It's better if you follow what she says."
"What's the punishment?"
"You'll find out. After all she's our music teacher."
"Hmm…"
And so now we find out what the punishment is…
The violin started to slip from my hands as the whip made contact with my fingers. Let me explain she asked me to play a song to see how well I played and a minute into playing she hit me. Now for the past 15 minutes, after almost every note I play she hits me.
"No good, no good at all."
Her heels clacked as they walked toward me. She twisted the whip in her hands. I saw that Nobara was about to speak up but I silenced her with a glare.
"You are suppose to be the best in school, however because of the feeling that comes from your music is always sad. That won't do. It seems that you will have a painful time learning at this school. As long as you can play well the feeling of the song doesn't matter."
"I understand."
"Did I ask you to speak?"
And that is how I ended up with a lot of bruises on my hands and wrists.
"Ouch!"
"Mikan, please stay still I'm only trying to help. Really that woman, it's only your first day and you already get so much pain."
"Its fine, besides compare to the pain Natsume caused to me it's nothing."
"It hurt that much did it?"
"Yeah."
Normal POV
Little did Mikan know someone was eavesdropping on them. Cough, cough Rou, cough. This is basically what happens for a year. Each day Mikan's eyes got darker and darker but the good news is that she learned to trust Rou and eventually her feelings for him grew so her feelings for Natsume were forgotten for a bit. This is how Rou confessed to her after Nobara kept going on and on and on, on the fact that he likes her.
So two years after Mikan had transferred…
"Nobara-chan told me that you wanted to tell me something what is it? I'm sorry but I have to go attend Koizumi-sensei's extra lessons soon or I get punished."
"Then give me five minutes."
"Sure."
"I like you."
"Eh?"
"Ever since you've transferred here. So if you would…," Rou said as he held out his music charm. Mikan put her hand over his.
"Thank you Rou-san. To tell you the truth, I've liked you too for awhile. "
"So will you go out with me?"
"Can I call you just Rou?"
"Yeah."
Rou kissed her on the cheek and handed her his charm. Then someone yelled," Rou kissed her on the lips not the cheek!"
"Nobara… one day you'll be an old woman with a bunch of cats."
"Oh shoot! I've got to go before I've late! Later Rou!"
She kissed him on the cheek then hurried out.
Moon: Okay about that last part it was either make a bunch of chapters about what happens or do that. I will change it so it's a bunch of chapters if that's what people what or I will keep it like this, and this way Natsume and Mikan see each other faster. So basically it's your choice. Oh, and who do you think Nobara should be with? Please give your opinions!
