DISCLAIMER: I don't own Gakuen Alice
When you protect the ones important to you, your true strength will show.
The doors slammed open and the girls start screaming and swooning. They have hearts in their eyes and saying things like:
"Kyaaa… Hyuuga-sama, marry me"
"Hyuuga-sama, be my boyfriend"
"Andou-sama, marry me"
And some other things about the other guys. There are only six girls who didn't acknowledge their presence. They're chatting, giggling, and talking about random stuffs. Narumi entered the class and the six girls noticed him. They went up to him.
"Narumi-sensei, where are we gonna sit?" Mikan asked.
"Oh! I didn't give you your seats yesterday?" Narumi exclaimed.
"Well! Duh! We're not going to ask you if you did, right?" Hotaru said in a matter-in-fact tone.
"Ok. Then I'm going to look for available seats for you to sit," Narumi starts wondering around.
"Oh! Harada-san, you're going to sit beside Andou-san," Narumi said happily.
When the class heard him, they fell silent. The boys at the back are smirking. Misaki and her friends look at Narumi in horror.
"You're kidding, right?" Misaki said, narrowing her eyes.
"Ummm… no. The seats are almost full so there's only a very few seats left," Narumi said.
Misaki looked at Tsubasa and glared. The girls in class started to protest and they're mad because she got to sit next to their 'beloved' Tsubasa.
"What about us?" Mikan asked, pointing a finger to herself then, to Hotaru.
"Oh! Imai-san you're going to sit next to Nogi-san," Narumi said.
Hotaru twitched but immediately kept her stoic face back. She walked towards Ruka and looked at him for a second before sitting beside him. The girls are not that mad about Hotaru sitting next to their Nogi-san because they found her scary.
"And Sakura-san you're going to seat beside Hyuuga-san," Narumi informed her.
Her blood drained from her face. Then, he look up to see Natsume smirking. She's dead. He's going to have her head off. She also noticed the girls are beyond furious.
Hey! Why did she get to sit next to our Hyuuga-sama?" a redhead girl yelled, standing up.
"Yeah! That's unfair," another one said.
"And also that girlie over there," a purple haired girl pointed to Misaki, who's vein popped out.
"Calm down class. We don't have any available seats so live with it," Narumi said.
"But-," the redhead girl got cut off.
"You know what? You can sit to your 'precious' Hyuuga-sama for all I care!" Mikan yelled.
The others start murmuring.
"And if you want them to sit next to you, why don't we switch places?" Misaki said angrily. She stood up.
"Fine!" the purple haired girl said.
Misaki is about to walk to the seat of the girl but Tsubasa held her back. Everyone is shocked. It's the first time that Tsubasa holding back a girl from leaving his side.
"Eh?" the purple haired girl exclaimed.
"What's wrong with you?" Misaki asked to Tsubasa, annoyed.
They didn't notice that Narumi had already slipped off from the class because of the tension that is rising every second.
"I've got to choose who's going to sit next to me," Tsubasa stated seriously that made everyone more shocked than before. He has no grin or smirk. "Nice one Shadow Freak/Tsubasa," Natsume, Ruka, Koko thought.
When Misaki saw the serious expression of Tsubasa, she turned to the purple haired girl.
"This freak doesn't want me to go even if I want to, so sorry," Misaki said then she sat down again beside Tsubasa.
Everyone gasped at her except from the gang and the Misaki's friends. "Did she just call Andou-san a freak?"
Tsubasa flinched but let it go. At least, she's now sitting next to him.
"But I can't tolerate her," the redhead girl pointed to Mikan, "to sit besides our 'precious' Hyuuga-sama!"
"You know, I rather sit outside than sit next to that perverted monkey!" Mikan pointed her index finger to Natsume. Everyone looked taken aback except from the gang. Natsume's vein is throbbing in his head.
"What did just call him? You effing ugly!" the redhead girl yelled.
"Oh! Yeah? At least I'm not a slut like you!" Mikan replied back. The redhead girl looked shocked.
"Heh! You're just jealous because I have a body that any models could die for!" the redhead girl said proudly.
"I don't think so… Are you calling me blind now? I just see a clown now in front of my eyes who's using… balloons or… tissues for her boobs?" Mikan laughed. Everyone looked at the redhead girl and laughed. Our famous hotties found it very amusing. Then, the purple haired girl walked up to the redhead girl.
"Mikyuu," the purple haired girl called out.
"What is it? Mitsuki?" Mikyuu asked.
Mitsuki pointed something at Mikyuu's shirt. Then, she looked down only to see a tissue dangling between the buttons of her blouse. Her face is red, very red, and she's shaking because of anger and humiliation. She let out a bloody murder scream. She's ready to slap Mikan. The girls, Mikan's friends, stood up, even Hotaru. The guys are ready to stop her but Natsume run faster and he get between Mikan and the frustrated redhead girl.
He held Mikyuu's hand before it landed on his face. Everyone gasped and didn't move from their seats. They looked surprised, especially Mikan's friends, they didn't expect that Natsume will protect her after the incident yesterday. But Natsume's friends thought, "It is part of the bet."
"H-Hyuuga-sama, a-are you si-siding he-her?" Mikyuu asked, horrified.
"It's really bad hurting someone who you didn't even know and just because of a pointless reason," Natsume said coolly, but there's a tint of poison in his voice.
Mikan is standing still. "I don't understand. Why did… why did he protect me? After the incident yesterday, he shouldn't be concern about me even if it's because of just a piece of crap, right?" she thought.
"Oi. Are you alright?" Natsume looked at Mikan over his shoulder because his back is facing her. He already let go of Mikyuu's hand.
"Y-yeah," Mikan answered.
Mikyuu run to Mitsuki who comforted her.
"Hey listen up! I'm the one to choose who will befriend me, who will hang out with me, who's I'm friends with, and who will sit beside me. And I choose her," Natsume pointed his finger to Mikan.
He grabbed her hand and they walked to their seats. Natsume rest his feet on the table and take out his manga. Mikan looked to him.
"Th-thank you, Hyuuga," Mikan said.
"Hn. It's not free, for your information," Natsume replied.
"What?" Mikan asked. Her eyebrows are meeting.
Natsume leaned in to her, she backed away slightly.
"Don't call me Hyuuga, call me Natsume," he whispered huskily. Everyone watched intently.
"Wh-what? Why would I call you that? Conceited jerk!" she said angrily. A tint of blush is visible on her cheeks.
"Fine then, if you don't want to call me that then, you're going to be my girl," Natsume said, smirking.
"WHAT? No way in hell!" Mikan yelled. Natsume blocked his ears.
"You don't have to shout, you loud-mouthed girl!" Natsume said. Mikan twitch.
"You perverted, conceited, egoistical Mr. high and mighty!" Mikan muttered.
"What did you say?" a vein is popping out from his head. "A simple task, you can't do?"
"I can call you a monkey, moron, or whatever but I can't call you your disgusting name," she replied.
"You little girl, don't mess with me," Natsume threatened but Mikan is already immune to it, thanks to Hotaru, her oh-so-beloved bestfriend. His last string of patience has already snapped.
"Don't call me a little girl, gorilla!" she yelled.
"He's going to chop her head off," everyone thought.
"Loud-mouthed girl"
"Monkey"
"Pig"
"Moron"
"Idiot"
"What is he doing? Is the bet about being the worst enemy of the girls or being a lover?" Ruka and his other friends thought. They are a little annoyed because of their bickering.
"Beast"
"Childish"
"Pervert"
"Polka"
"Huh?" everyone thought, even Mikan.
Then it struck her, yesterday he saw her bra when he almost kiss her. Her face reddens and there's smoke coming from her ears. Her friends and Natsume stuck their fingers on their ears. Then, she explodes…
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH! I'M GOING TO KILL YOU HYUUGA! GO TO HELL, YOU BASTARD!"
Yukihara Manor…
"I'm… not… going to get… married!" Mikan wailed like a child. Anna and Nonoko are comforting her.
"What exactly did he mean by 'Polka'?" Sumire asked, intrigued.
Mikan blushed and then she hugs Anna.
"Stop crying Mikan," Nonoko patted her back.
"If you don't stop crying, I'm going to shoot you by my Baka Gun," Hotaru threatened. She's annoyed by Mikan's wailing and being childish.
"It was… It was the pattern of my bra I was wearing yesterday," she answered quietly and quickly. She stopped sobbing because she doesn't want to taste the painful shot of Hotaru's Baka Gun.
"… what?" Misaki asked. She didn't quite catch what did she say.
Mikan sighed and then said slowly, "It was my bra yesterday that he's talking about by 'Polka'."
Anna and Nonoko's eyes almost popped out from their sockets. Sumire spit out her soda. Misaki almost chocked the chocolate she's eating. And Hotaru is ready to kill; she's preparing her Ultra Baka Bazooka.
Mikan sweat dropped because of their reactions.
"What a pervert!" Misaki exclaimed.
"Yeah!" the twins agreed in unison.
"But when?" Sumire asked. Mikan blushed at the sudden question because she remembered the incident yesterday.
"You're always together with us," Nonoko mentioned.
"It has something to do with yesterday's incident. You always answering us with "he does something perverted" but you didn't tell us what exactly he did," Hotaru pointed out.
Mikan blushed harder then gulped. Her friends noticed this and shot her questioning looks.
"O-ok. This is what happened," Mikan closed her eyes then proceed to tell what happened. The girls are listening intently. After she told them about the part she went out from the bathroom, they gasped except from Hotaru.
"Then… he leaned in closer… our… our li-lips were a-about to b-brush b-but I re-realize what is happening so I kicked him in his you-know-what," she told them then continue, "I didn't know that he saw my bra that time."
"Oh! My effing God! You almost got kissed?" Sumire asked incredulously.
"Y-yeah! He almost got stolen my first ever kiss!" Mikan yelled.
"I'm gonna be sure that Hyuuga will never see the morning again," Hotaru said. She really cares about her friends, especially Mikan. She's protective when it comes to them.
"But didn't he protect Mikan earlier?" Anna said.
"Oh! Yeah! Why did he do that even after the incident yesterday?" Misaki asked, confused by the raven boy's acts.
"Duh! He's a playboy and I bet he's planning to win Mikan's heart," Hotaru said in a matter-in-fact tone.
"Yeah! Like that stupid Andou," Misaki muttered.
"Let's just sleep," Sumire said, yawning softly.
"Yeah," the twins said sleepily.
Then, the night dragged on.
Math class…
"Urgh! I hate Math! And I also have to deal with this jerk beside me," Mikan thought angrily.
She looked out the window. There are no clouds or anything at the sky. It's clear blue sky. The leaves on the trees are swaying and the birds are flying peacefully. Oh, how did she want to be just like that.
After a few minutes… "Miss Sakura!" Jinno-sensei shouted. Natsume nudged Mikan who snapped out of her thoughts and turned to looked at her math teacher. He's friggin' mad.
"Please answer the question for number 5," the teacher in his 30's with a metal stick on his hand ordered.
"Ummm…" Mikan stood up, she began sweating and fidgeting. Then, she noticed a note at her notebook.
"517," she answered. The teacher looked satisfied and said "Good". Jinno turned around on the blackboard.
Mikan looked at the crimson-eyed teen beside her who's staring boringly to the board. She poked his arm under the desk and he looked at her.
"Thank you," she muttered softly.
"Hn," he replied.
The day passed quickly and Mikan is confused than ever.
"First, he's annoying me then he's kind to me. Then, he's going to annoy the hell out of me again, and then, he's going to be kind to me! What the hell is wrong with that guy?" she thought while looking up to the ceiling of her bedroom.
Then, her eyes began to droop and she fell asleep.
Cafeteria…
"Hey wanna hang out with us this weekend?" Kitsuneme asked them.
"Oh! Sure! We don't have anything to do anyways," Misaki answered.
"So who's going?" Yuu asked.
"I am," Mikan said cheerfully.
Nonoko, Anna, Sumire, Misaki agreed. Hotaru just nodded.
"So what day? And what time?" Tsubasa asked.
"Ummm… let's see… Saturday afternoon will be good," Sumire said.
"Ok."
"Oi. Polka, are you comin'?" Natsume asked in a bored tone.
"Yeah! And don't call me 'Polka' fox," Mikan replied back.
"Whatever," Natsume said.
"This is a perfect opportunity for our bet," Natsume, Ruka and Tsubasa thought.
Yay! The chapter five is done!
