Me: Yay! Chapter 3!

Mikan: Yay! NatsumesSoulmate does not own Gakuen Alice, though. Hihi!

Me: Where's…?

Mikan: Natsume? I dunno.

*Natsume comes in panting*

Mikan: …

Me: …

Natsume: Where the fucking hell is Hotaru?!!

Me: Natsu-chi… I was just telling them about the new chap—

Natsume: Hotaru!!! Give me back my manga you son of a &*#(!!!

Hotaru: I'm a girl. Enjoy the fanfic and review, to whoever is reading this…

Chapter 3: Why is this happening to me?!

"R-ruka… uhm,"

What the hell am I supposed to say?!

My mortal enemies' manager just found out that I'm a girl! Fucking hell.

"Look, uh… why d-don't you come inside..?" I managed to choke out. I looked at his face as he slowly regained his business-like attitude. He gave me a nod in reply.

I stepped away from the door for him to enter. I could tell he was more than surprised. He walked quite stiff that his usual professional aura disappeared a little.

I motioned for him to sit on the velvet couch I have in my living room. I sat down across him.

Everything was hell tense.

I kept on searching for things to randomly look at, and I guess Ruka felt the tension, so he decided to say something.

"So…"

Even if it was just a single word.

Then, I just couldn't take it anymore. I hated it when I got tense. I get sweaty.

"Look---"

"Mikan,"

Hotaru barged into my room with the trophy in her hand.

Me and Ruka just stared at her. Hotaru was smart enough to notice the tension.

"Oh Shit." Then she turned to me and gave me a glare saying "He knows now, doesn't he?"

I just nodded to her direction.

Really. What a friend. Just when I got all my strength to talk to Ruka, she did that.

"Could somebody tell me what whacked-out situation I got myself into this time?" Ruka said.

Hotaru just rolled her eyes.

"Exactly what's infront of you genius." She said.

Hello? Did you guys forget that I was alive and kicking?!

"Sakura, is actually 19 year old Sakura Mikan. And yes, she is a girl. Obviously." Hotaru continued as if she was explaining to 5 year old children. "So far, only the both of us know about this. I expect you to keep your mouth shut about this. Nogi."

She pronounced Ruka's name as if inserting poison into her words. Creepy.

"Y-yes Ma'am-m" Ruka said. Then, to me, Hotaru asked, "Ready to go?"

"Give me 15 minutes. I haven't even showered yet!" As I stood up from the couch, Ruka said, "Where are you guys headin'?"

"None of your business." Hotaru answered.
"Hotaru, don't be mean." Poor guy. Getting pushed into this kind of situation.

Hotaru just sighed. "Crimson Rose."

Ruka got that weird glint in his eye. "Mind if I come?"

"Sure!" I answered. Now I have someone to take care of Hotaru for me when things get out of hand… hihihi. Hotaru gave me a warning look. Then, to Ruka, she said, "Great, but how the hell are you planning to tell Hyuuga?" Ruka was dumbfounded.

"Right. There's always that." He said.

"Just don't tell him then!" I answered. Why do they have to make things too complicated?! Hotaru glared at me. Again.

"Fine, fine. Just get dressed Mikan. I'll go meet you by the parking lot, kay? I gotta change too. Blonde boy. Leave. Now." She said to Ruka.

"Okay, Okay. See you guys in a few." He said as he rose from his seat and followed Hotaru out of my room.

"Okay. Time to get changed." I said to myself while heading to my closet room.

Guys, it'll probably take me until Saturday to post the new chapter, because we have school again tomorrow. Thanks for reading and please, please, please review!
