Chapter 5: Another day

-

'Idiot, wake up. Right Now'

Natsume Hyuuga had said those words so frustratingly, it was as if it's the end of the world and it is – literally. This morning he got a call from his grandfather that his little sister – Aoi Hyuuga who's currently studying abroad at Australia will be visiting him this instant. Who knows what tragedy would befall on him if she knew the deal between him and Luna's dad – Lyca Koizumi.

He would never see sunlight again, he would be locked away, alone in a cold dungeon - look at what she did to him, he was now exaggerating and Natsume Hyuuga never exaggerates, never. He looked at the sleeping brunette and sighed, trying to think of a way to wake her up, he knew that Mikan Sakura was a heavy sleeper but not to this extent as this is just too much – Too much. Maybe, just this time he should ask for Imai's help and to him it is a brilliant plan.

He then stood up, walked towards Hotaru's room and with a determined face, he knocked on the door. Once, twice, thrice and a thought came to him, 'Maybe Imai's a heavy sleeper too.' he widened his eyes at this new found theory, 'No! It's too early to give up, must wake Imai up.'

He then attempted to knock on the door again but before his knuckle could even touch the door, the door suddenly burst open which revealed a pretty pissed off and annoyed Hotaru. As soon as she opened the door out came her infamous fan and a bump instantly formed on his head – Fantastic! (Please note the Sarcasm).

"Why the heck did you do that?" Natsume asked her as he rubbed the just formed bruise on his head not forgetting to glare at her.

"I'm not a morning person Hyuuga, therefore I hit you. Is it that hard to understand?" She replied back, fanning herself with her fan while making eye contact with him. He narrowed his eyes and looked at her in the eye which held something like 'Superiority' or 'You Lost' or '(H) 1- (N) 0' in other words she's making him look like a loser but just for today, he'll let it slide as he needed her help.

"Imai, Wake idiot up." Natsume commanded her.

She stretched out one of her hands and patiently waited for Natsume to pay the amount of money she desired, "88,000 Yen right now."

Natsume sighed and motioned her to follow him to his room.

Natsume looked at Hotaru who slowly advanced Mikan and had sat on the edge of the bed. She moved her head next to her ear as she whispered, "I have Howalons…"

Instantly Mikan sat up and her eyes were desperately trying to find the said Howalons until Hotaru hit her with her beloved fan which resulted to VERY ear piercing 'Ouch'. While Mikan was whining at Hotaru, Natsume is currently in his own world, 'I wasted 88,000 Yen on how to wake the idiot up and this was how she did it? Just by saying a type of food?' he had been repeating this particular sentence in his mind for awhile now until he realised that Imai already went outside, leaving him and Mikan Sakura alone in her room. He looked at Mikan who was staring at him for quite some time now.

At first, he didn't want to admit it but being her pretend boyfriend was actually quite enjoyable. To the extent of him not wanting to leave her alone sometimes, it was that enjoyable. Now that they are going to get married, he didn't need to make an excuse so that he could spend more time with her. After all he's her husband, she wouldn't be able to avoid him and vice versa. Until now he's still figuring out about his feelings towards her, is it brotherly love? He didn't know but definetly not love.

His train of thoughts were then stopped when the only person in the room called out for him, "Hey, Natsume,"

He blinked and nodded, mentally telling her that she may continue. She smiled and greeted him, "Good morning!"

At that particular time, he thought that he died but then he managed to think her smile was beautiful which confirmed his existence. How can she kill him just like that with a smile? A smile! What's wrong with him these days? He shook off the thought and muttered a 'Hn' and he now remembered that his sister is going to visit him - he totally forgot about that matter, so better tell her now.

"Wear decent clothes and meet up with me downstairs at the living room, my sister's visiting." and with that he dashed through the door and went downstairs to the living room, still thinking of the smile which was directed to him.

Natsume is so weird sometimes, like just now when she greeted him good morning - he stood still at first, then he suddenly said that his sister was visiting them and out he went of her room. She shrugged off the thought and did her morning routines like she always did. She wore a white t-shirt which had flower designs at the hem and jeans which reached below her knee; she tied her hair to a ponytail and went down stairs.

At the living room she saw Natsume sitting down; reading a magazine and Hotaru was sitting in front of him, counting money. She headed to the kitchen and opened the refrigerator door, thinking of having cereal for breakfast until she realised that the refrigerator is filled with anything that has to do with crabs – Must be Hotaru's doing.

She took a box of cereal which was crab flavoured and ate in silence, she then heard the front door open and figured that must be Natsume's sister. She quickly finished her cereal; put the empty bowl on the sink not forgetting to put the cereal box back into the refrigerator as she went outside just to see somebody really familiar.

"Aoi, what are you doing here?!"

Instantly Aoi muttered a string of curses under her breath, something along the line of 'Why must she appear so early?' and 'I feel so asdfsgjh1;')-578!' while Natsume had knitted his eyebrows in confusion and as for Hotaru, she had mysteriously disappeared.

There was uncomfortable silence until Natsume decided to speak up, "Mikan, do you know who this is?" he said as he pointed to his little sister.

"Of course I know! She's Aoi Sixdots, a friend of mine!" Mikan smiled at him as she clinged to Aoi's neck like a koala.

Natsume knew from the pseudo name that Mikan had given him, Aoi had done something again. He narrowed his eyes at his now squirming little sister and glowered at Mikan who was now glaring back at him.

"What the heck is wrong with you?" Mikan snapped at him.

Natsume took a deep breath in and ushered Aoi to stand next to him. Aoi nodded at him and forcibly detached Mikan's arms from her neck and was now standing next to him, leaving Mikan dumbfounded.

"What's going on?" Mikan said in a confused voice.

Natsume sighed as he lazily introduced his little sister, "Mikan, this is my little sister – Aoi Hyuuga."

"What?! What do you mean by that? Someone as nice as Aoi is related to you? You have got be kidding me!" Mikan angrily replied to his declaration.

"No why would I kid you? This is my little sister."

"If both of you are related then why are your surnames different?"

"That is what I'm going to ask Aoi now, right?"

"Uh … Peace?"

"You're not going to get away that easily. Explain,"

"So much for acting-like-I-didn't-know-anything-plan." Aoi muttered those words under her breath before she explained to her brother about her trip to the particular restaurant.

"I'm so sorry Mikan!" Aoi frustratingly cried as she flew into Mikan's arms while using her greatest weapon – the puppy dog eyes.

"Don't worry about it; you're just worried about your brother right?" Mikan lightly pat her back before sending a 'help me' signal to Natsume who was standing in front of her.

Natsume inwardly smirked at this as a thought came to him, "Aoi what if I ended up not marrying Mikan at all? You better be careful next time!" he feigned his voice into something so enraged that it would make people willingly kill themselves.

Aoi, who heard this loud and clear, continued her wailing while Mikan was now scowling at Natsume for being the 'Nicest person on earth' – the irony.

"Aoi, your brother and I forgive you!" Mikan exasperatedly said to the person who's in her arm as she ushered for Natsume to say something nice.

Before Natsume could even say something, the forgotten figure – Hotaru suddenly cut him off, "Mikan, we have to go to work right now."

Natsume glared at Hotaru for cutting him off, maybe he should've hired an assassin to kill her when she's alone in this villa but then he will be taunted by her evil spirit in return – the karma.

"What? Today's Sunday Hotaru!" Mikan giggled at Hotaru.

Hotaru sighed as she shook her head a she thought, 'that brain of hers needs upgrading' before continuing, "You volunteered to help the other branch of the restaurant on their sales, right?"

Mikan formed an 'O' with her mouth as she gently removed the crying Aoi from herself, "I'm sorry Aoi, I wanted to spend more time with you but it looks like I have work to do." She gave Aoi a weak smile as she darted upstairs to change into her uniform and was now at the kitchen retrieving her wallet.

As she and Hotaru were about to depart, a voice stopped them, to be more precise – Natsume's

They stopped on their tracks and looked back at Natsume who was now walking towards them. He stopped in front of Mikan and gave her a kiss on the cheek which made Hotaru take out her camera and take pictures, Mikan flushed and Aoi who smiled at the lovely couple.

"Be careful on the way there and when you come home." Natsume advised Mikan, whose face was now glowing bright pink in colour. He heard her muttered a squeaky 'Okay' before dragging Hotaru with her out of the door.

Natsume silently laughed at this before turning his back on the door and faced his little sister who had a wicked smile on her face. He clicked his tongue at her expression – something's fishy, "Why are you smilling like that?"

"You mean you haven't noticed?" Aoi innocently asked him as she tried to suppress a grin from emerging on her face which was futile.

"Haven't noticed what?" Natsume eyed his little sister.

"Amigo, you are blushing."

"Shut it." Natsume growled at her who was now laughing hysterically.

He looked at Mikan Sakura who was surrounded by his co-workers asking whether it was true or not that she was getting married to Natsume Hyuuga and other Nastume related questions. To say that he was jealous was not a lie; he was damn envious of Natsume Hyuuga! Ever since he started working here he was drawn to Mikan Sakura. Her auburn tresses which he always wanted to touch, her expressive hazel orbs - To tell you the truth, to him, everything about her was beautiful. On a fateful day he wanted to confess his undying love to her but then she had declared to the media that she's in a relationship with Natsume Hyuuga.

His dreams further shattered when he found out that she's going to marry – "Ruka-pyon?" a sweet voice interrupted his thoughts. He looked at the source of the voice and it was none other than Mikan Sakura, the person that he has been constantly thinking of. He smiled at her and asked her in a gentle voice, "What's wrong?"

To Mikan Sakura, Ruka Nogi was her Prince Charming or something like her Romeo. Oh how much she loved his eyes, they were bright cerulean in colour and were just beautiful, his dazzling smile which makes her feel all gushy inside and then there's his slick blond hair, she could never resist that. Unfortunately, she could never be with him as she's Natsume Hyuuga's wife but that is after two years right? After that she would instantly ask Ruka out, she can't wait for that day!

Mikan shook her head and replied as she fought off a blush, "Nothing, It's just not like you to space out like that."

Ruka Nogi smiled at this; Mikan Sakura is just so adorable, Natsume Hyuuga's soo lucky to have her.

A woman was seen hiding in the shadows taking pictures of Ruka and Mikan moments with her trusty camera. From this it is confirmed that this woman is none other than Hotaru Imai – The Blackmailing Queen, 'I wonder what will be Hyuuga's reaction to this' she thought while taking pictures, 'For sure it would be Interesting' A smirk was seen on her face as a plan formulated in that ingenious brain of her.

It was 8.00 PM at that time and the threesome was seen relaxing at the living room of the villa as Aoi had already went home since Natsume shooed her away. Mikan was now watching television; Hotaru's busy evaluating her 'photos' while Natsume was doing some paperwork for his company, this silence was disturbed when a continuous chime bell was heard. This indicates that someone was outside.

"I'll get it!" Mikan voluntarily stood up and headed towards the door way and saw though the glass door that it was Kotaru Hyuuga that was visiting them. He waved at her as she smiled at him while opening the door, welcoming him inside the villa.

Both of them went to the living room and the other occupants of the house looked up when they entered the living room, "Oh, It's just you. What do you want?" Natsume stared at him with bored eyes.

"Not much actually, I just want the to-be-wedded couples's signature." Kotaru bluntly told him his purpose coming here.

"For what?" Natsume stopped whatever he was doing and looked at his grandfather who was still standing.

"Wedding registration and Divorce papers of course."

Kotaru took out a folder out from the suitcase that he has been carrying from when he arrived here. From some reason Natsume flinched when he heard the word 'Divorce papers' coming out from his grandfather's mouth. He sighed and looked at Mikan who was now sitting up to sign the papers - Divorce papers andwith that he flinched again. What's wrong with him? He shook off the thought and took a nearby pen to sign the papers – Divorce Papers, 'flinch'.

After both of them had signed the papers, Kotaru was about to take his leave when Hotaru stopped him.

"Why so early?" Hotaru asked him but still preoccupied with evaluating her pictures.

"Pardon?"

"The divorce papers, why do they need to sign it right now?" she looked at him who was staring at her from the beginning while that somebody flinched.

"Then there wouldn't be the need to rush, when the time comes that is. I'll see you when I see you." Kotaru said as he stepped outside of the villa.

There was silence after that until Hotaru broke it rather interestingly, "Hyuuga, is there a need to flinch at the word divorce paper?"

"Shut up, Imai" flinch.

It was 11.00 PM and by that time Mikan was already asleep and Natsume was about to sleep when he saw a big brown envelope on his bed. He took the envelope in his hands and read what was written on it 'Courtesy of Hotaru Imai' he narrowed his eyes at this - Imai is always up to no good. He tore the envelope open and out came pictures, he took one of the pictures and scanned the picture rather carefully – It was a picture of Mikan with another man and at that time Mikan was blushing really hard. He glared at picture of the other man and he would kill him if he ever met him with his wife. The word 'his wife' was continuously repeated in his mind.

'What the fuck is wrong with him?' he's not supposed to be like this after all he has Luna. He guessed that it's maybe because of the work piling up and he was not thinking straight, he got himself ready to sleep as he thought of something to do with Mikan Sakura tomorrow about this man.
