Recently, I haven't been in the mood to continue this story.. maybe because I'm currently being tortured in writing for the Legend of the Past contest (im not yet halfway but its already 2000 words O.o) and I'm currently in the mood to write another story.. so yeah, I hope you don't get disappointed in this chapter..

The Love Note

Chapter 5: The Happening

"What is this?" I asked in an annoyed voice as Natsume walked around me, looking at the dress I was wearing.

"Uh-huh. Good enough." He glanced at the saleslady and said, "We'll take this."

I stared hardly at Natsume as he paid for the dress with a check. "What's this?" I repeated.

He looked at me for a second then replied, "I'm bringing you along tonight. There's a birthday party of some rich guy. His name is something along the lines of 'Gates'. His name is probably Entrance or something. We're going in the stead of my father."

I rolled my eyes. "Uh-huh, Uh-huh. I get it." I paused then glared at him. "But why am I included?"

"I didn't want to bring you either, but my mother insisted. She gave me a choice. It's either bring you or bring our baby. Well of course I chose to bring you," he said then smirked. He caressed my cheek. "Or do you want us to make a baby instead?"

I blushed then realizing what was happening, I slapped his hand away. "You are SO disgusting."

He grinned. "I know right? Should I wash my hand now?" He chuckled. "But admit it, you like it."

I rolled my eyes. "Why should I?"

"Cuz you like me," he replied in vanity. Goodness, how does he survive having that kind of behavior?

"You have a Sugar Mama, don't you?" I muttered.

"What?" He asked, not hearing what I said.

"Nothing."

I secretly slipped away when Natsume wasn't looking. How dare he!? He actually didn't let me eat any of the food served and made me go with him as he greeted who-knows-how-many guests. He said it was about socializing for the sake of future business deals. Hell! Like I care about his family's humongous company.

I stayed at the balcony, enjoying the fresh air around. Well, the air on the streets isn't that bad either. At least it's better than smoke, right? But fresh air is still the best. Not that I'm the countryside, old class type of girl, but maybe I am. Great! I think Natsume's teasing is getting past my skin and is now penetrating my way of thinking.

"Mikan? Why are you here?" a voice behind me asked.

"Okay, Natsume. Took you long enough to find me. Angry? Look at me to see my I-don't-care expression," I replied, not caring to turn around.

"Mikan? This is Anima. Do you remember me?"

I frowned. "Who the hell is.." I paused as I slowly remembered. I turned around in haste and smiled in apology. "Oh, Anima. Hi."

He sighed. "I thought you really forgot me. What brings you here? I was just imagining you eating with a stranger a few minutes ago then, Viola! You're here."

I laughed. "I was stalking you."

He laughed along then stopped. "Seriously?"

"Of course not." We both laughed. Somehow, this whole laughing thing makes me feel like I'm on a prank show without knowing it.

I feigned a cough. "Um, so you're rich?"

"Kind of. I didn't think you were rich though," he stated with a warm smile.

"No, I'm not. Some friend of mine dragged my here. And when I say dragged, I mean dragged like really dragged. Kidnapped, if I may say."

"Hey, are you taken?" he suddenly asked.

"Yes. I mean no! No! Of course not! What made you ask?" I blushed. Why did I even say yes?

"Nothing." He smiled to me. "For future business deals."

I cocked an eyebrow. What do they mean by "future business deals"? I have a feeling it has a double meaning.

"Mikan! Do you seriously want me to handcuff you to me or do you want your feet cut off instead?" Natsume told me as he stepped into the balcony. He paused for a second as he looked back and fro from me to Anima. He grabbed my hand and pulled me to his side.

Anima smiled innocently. "Mikan. Is he your brother?"

I swear I heard Natsume snap. "Brother? What are you talking about?" To my surprise, Natsume grabbed my neck and pulled me closer to a kiss. When Natsume pulled away, he glared at Anima. "I'm her fiancé."

And the next think I knew, I fainted.

I groaned as I opened my eyes. I looked around. I could see the huge buildings around through the glass. Below, the cars looked like simple toys and the people looked like dolls. It was a wonderful sight, really. Just that this isn't the usual thing I see when I wake up during the mornings.

I sat up in haste and looked underneath the covers. Oh shit! I looked around and saw my clothes folded on the sofa. Why the fudge am I naked!? What happened!?

Suddenly, the door of the bathroom nearby opened. Out came Natsume all wet with a towel covering his bottom half.

"What happened last night!?" I angrily asked. He simply ignored me and went towards the cabinet. I looked away as soon as I figured out he was going to clothe himself. The door of the room suddenly closed. I glanced back and Natsume was gone. Shit!

"WHAT HAPPENED LAST NIGHT!?!?!?" I screamed at the top of my lungs.

The door opened and Natsume peeped in with a smile. "Thanks for last night."

He closed the door and left. It took me a few seconds to register what he had just said.

WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED!?!?!?
