"I am Mikan. I will be the... uh, co-handler... in a way to say it, of the Dangerous Ability Class from now on. I hope we will... all get along" she announced.

Every student stood in shock. Getting annoyed by the stares, Persona asked, "Are there any questions?"

A student raised their hand. "Yes?" Mikan asked, turning to face the student, only to freeze when she saw who it was. 'Youichi' she thought. Youichi was currently standing next to Natsume, with a 'still-trying-to-get-this-all-through-my-head' look on his face. The young member fidgeted around before asking his question.

"What do you mean by being the 'co-handler' of the class?" he asked Mikan. Mikan closed her eyes and let out a small smile, trying to find a way to explain.

"Well, let's see. Persona is the handler of the DA class. By all means, he takes care of everything. I, will, basically, mainly, be your trainer. I will help train all of you, and help you all improve on your Alice... or Alices. I will also tag along on certain missions to assist you if needed. I will also take charge of the class whenever Persona is absent and is unable to take the class because he has 'things to attend'. Any further questions will be answered at the end of class" Mikan explained. She then turned to Persona, mutely asking him to add anything, which he did.

"I expect good results. Shiro Neko will keep me updated on how you all go within your training. If any of you fail... well, I'll let your imagination work from then on" informed Persona. Many students started to sweat nervously. Next to her, she saw Hana and Daichi chuckle under their breath in amusement.

"Wait, who is Shiro Neko?" a student called out. Mikan took a forward and spoke.

"That would be me, much to my displeasure" Mikan declared, while secretly glaring at Persona. "Well, by all means. Training shall start. Let's start with how you all fight, with and without your Alice. When you use your alice is up to you" Mikan called out. She turned to Persona, who nodded.

"Alright, training starts now, Kuro Neko, you're up first. Give her your best shot, do NOT, I repeat, do NOT go easy on her... or else she will use your ass to clean the whole forest. Put on your mask and you may start" informed Persona as he threw a spare mask, that he usually keeps, at Natsume.

Replying with a stiff nod, Natsume put on the mask and started to charge towards Mikan.

'I'm going to hate this' was all he thought as soon as he readied to attack.

Mikan closed her eyes as her brother announced the name of the first person up.

"Alright, training starts now, Kuro Neko, you're up first. Give her your best shot, do NOT, I repeat, do NOT go easy on her... or else she will use your ass to clean the whole forest" informed Persona.

Mikan inwardly laughed. It was true. She wasn't going to go easy on Natsume. But, she was going to use her 'Mikan muscle and skills' not her 'Sakura muscle and skills'.

Mikan opened her eyes as Natsume made his way to area where training and fights were held. She had been avoiding his eyes ever since she had jumped down from the tree and landed on the ground. Now, she was looking directly in his eyes, only to feel guilt and shame over her. Why? Why didn't she tell him sooner? Why can't she tell him? Why must danger be at every damn corner that she turns to? Why must she always walk straight ahead? WHY?

Heaving a sigh, Mikan got into stance and readied herself as Natsume charged towards her. Natsume being one of the errand boys in the academy, he was taught to never use his Alice until needed last. And as taught, he did just that. Instead of using his Alice, he tried to knock her off her feet.

Natsume knew that he was not to underestimate her skills, though, there was no way she could be that good, right? He thought as he swiftly turned around as Mikan somersaulted over him.

'What the hell?' he called out in his mind, though, his face remained calm as he tried to attack again, lunging a few punches whenever he got the change. Only, Mikan dodged every attack that he made. And as the fight went longer, his patience ran thin. Finally, he snapped and took a leap back and jumped onto a tree and started at activate his Alice.

"Finally..." he heard Mikan, Persona, Arakaki and Nishimura mutter under their breath in union. Behind his mask, he raised an eyebrow. What did they mean? He almost jumped when someone actually answered his question. Looking down, he saw Arakaki.

"This whole thing is about..." she started off. Natsume raised an eyebrow when she didn't continue. He almost jumped, again, when he heard Arakaki's voice in his head, "This is not only about how people fight without their Alice, Mikan wants to see how long they hold off their Alice as well- About how long you people wait until you use your Alice... as well as wanting to see how you all attack and all... without using your Alice"

Behind his mask, both Natsume's eyebrows went up at the explanation. He turned around to see Mikan already in another 'training session' with someone else. Hayate Matsudaira, to be exact.

Amused, Natsume walked over to where Youichi was and went to a nearby tree and leaned against the tree and watched as Hayate try to throw a few punches at Mikan, only to end up hitting thin air because she had already disappeared and appeared behind him.

Natsume watch Mikan, how she moved, her actions, everything. He couldn't help but feel as if he had seen someone familiar. Pushing the thought aside, he continued to watch as Hayate's patience snapped and started to activate his Alice. Hayate threw a wind blade at Mikan, who merrily stepped to her left to dodge it. Hayate popped a vein and threw multiple wind blades at Mikan, who, again, dodged them all easily with a couple of swift moves to the right and left, not bothered to jump out of the way.

Hayate was about to use his Alice again when Mikan stopped him by merrily putting her right hand up, signalling him to stop. Hayate stayed still for a moment before standing up straight and went over to the opposite side to where the other students were.

Hajime Yakumo was up next, who had the insect control Alice. Hajime stepped into the battlefield calmly and readied to attack. Only, unlike Natsume and Hayate, after a couple of attacks, Hajime stepped back and activated his Alice. Though, before he could do anything, Mikan put her right hand up again, signalling him to stop. Shrugging his shoulders and made his way to where Hayate was and sat down, leaning on a tree trunk.

Mikan scanned the class and her eyes landed on Youichi. "Come on, Youichi" she called out, waving her arm over, telling him to move onto the fighting area. Behind Natsume's mask, his eyes narrowed. As Youichi stood up, Natsume stopped him.

"You sure about this, kid?" he asked, trying not to sound too worried. Youichi let out a small nod and made his way towards the fighting area.

From the sidelines, Natsume stood up, ready to stop the fight if it were to get out of hand.

Mikan nodded at Youichi from across the field, who nodded back. Mikan put up her left hand, telling him to wait a moment as she took off her leather jacket.

As soon as she took off her leather jacket, all the guys in the class started to drool at the sight of her body. Nearby, Natsume felt a shared dangerous aura, which joined his own dangerous aura, emit through the atmosphere, straightening all the male student's minds. Turning to see where it came from, Natsume wasn't surprised by who it came from. Nishimura Daichi. Not much of a shocker there.

Mikan rolled her eyes playfully and indicated to Youichi to start, which he did. Like every other member, Youichi charged to attack, only, this time, Mikan also threw in a few attacks at him. Natsume's eyes narrowed. 'What the hell was this girl doing? Why was she attacking Youichi only? How come she didn't attack everyone else?' he asked himself as he continued to watch.

Mikan threw a punch at Youichi, who blocked it with both of his hands. She continued to attack from different places until Youichi finally activated his Alice on her. Mikan stepped back, not bothered by the ghosts that were surrounding her. Mikan stared at the ghosts for a while and then looked back at Youichi and gave him a nod. Youichi nodded back and deactivated his Alice and made his way back to Natsume, who was waiting to see if Youichi was hurt.

"You alright, kid?" he asked as Youichi made his way closer to Natsume. Natsume relaxed when Youichi nodded in reply. 'What the hell was she doing?' Natsume wondered. He then paid attention to the next person that was making his way towards the area to fight.

Mikan continued to call up students until all the students had their turn. In the end, all students were confused by why some of the fights went longer than others, and why for some of the students, Mikan worked harder on. Mikan called for all the students to gather for her to explain. When everyone was ready, she spoke,

"What everyone just did just now, was not only for me to see how you fight. I want to see how long you wait until you use your Alice, how long your patience goes for. And I have to say, some of you…" Mikan shot a glance at 'certain' students', "have quite the patience, while others, I'm a tiny bit disappointed. Some are too lazy and started using their Alice within only, what, 3 and a half minutes into the training session, heck, maybe even 1 minute. While some were… too… calm. We need to make sure we read our opponents, picking up certain skills, certain tactics, their strengths, what they're good at and what they're not god at, and using it as an advantage.

"I will start calling on students and work with them individually. And for those who were wondering, Youichi was the only one who I attacked because he is the youngest member here, and needs to start feeling a little bit more pressure. I will hand the class over to Persona now" Mikan informed them as she stepped back for Persona to speak.

While Mikan was handling the class, Persona had made himself comfortable, leaning against a tree and watched in amusement as his fellow students started getting impatient.

"Well, that is all for today, I expect you try and improve by next lesson. Is it understood?" Persona asked, firmly. All students immediately nodded, except Natsume, who replied with him usual 'Hn'.

"Alright then, class dismissed" Persona announced.

All students started to leave. Before leaving, Natsume turned back and took of his mask and threw it to Persona, who caught it with ease. Before turning back, Natsume glanced at Mikan, who was currently walking over to Daichi and Hana.

"She better start explaining later" he muttered as he turned to leave, and proceeded to the Sakura Tree.

Mikan made her way to Daichi and Hana after class was dismissed. Hana had come to her room to tell her Persona wanted to tell her something. Mikan happily chatted with Hana while Daichi lay on his back, trying to take a nap.

Moments later, Persona appeared. Sensing his presence all looked up and nodded at him in acknowledgement. Persona nodded back and told them to stand up.

"Hey, Onii-chan. What did you want?" questioned Mikan. Persona stood a clear distance away from Mikan as he told her.

"Well, seeing that your Alice controls devices are a bother, the principal has appointed you a time to get some tattoos... They work the same way on your body- pretty much an Alice control device, only, in tattoo form. You are to go today in about... less than half an hour from now" announced Persona. As soon as Persona announced the news, Hana and Daichi jumped five metres away from Mikan, and waited for her reaction.

All waited silently as Mikan stood, frozen. All prepared when Mikan's eyes slightly widened.

"Oh shit" Daichi muttered.

Mikan started to release a dangerous aura around her. "WHAT! WHY? WHAT THE HECKIE? SERIOUSLY? WHY! YOU KNOW THAT I HATE THAT STUFF! NOW I HAVE TO GET ONE?" she exclaimed.

"Actually, you're going to get more than one. Not sure how many, but it's more than one" Daichi spoke calmly, digging his hands into the pockets of his jacket.

"WHAT? NOOO!" Mikan sulked. She collapsed on her knees and started sulking. "What has the world come to?" Mikan murmured to the ground.

Daichi slowly made his way over to her and placed his hand on top of her head. Hana slightly smirked, though, she sweat dropped about what happened next. Daichi had placed his hand on Mikan's head, making her look up, though, once she did, he started to ruffle her hair to the max.

"And for a moment there, I thought he was going to be nice... sheesh... that sucks..." Hana muttered to herself. Persona grunted in reply.

"OI! What did you do that for?" shouted Mikan, glaring at Daichi. "My hair's all messy now!" she added, as she started to fix up her hair. Daichi rolled his eyes as Hana and Persona made their way to Mikan and him.

"Well, stop whining then" suggested Daichi.

"NO! I don't want to get one! You're not getting one! So leave me alone!" Mikan shot back. Daichi popped a vein.

"You idiot, I'm getting a couple of tattoos as well... Tch, and even if I were not in the need to get a tattoo, I'M the one you has to listen to YOU crying and yelling about" Daichi replied, irritated as he ran his fingers through his hair. Mikan's eyes lightened up at what Daichi said.

"Really? You're getting tattoos, too?" she asked, ignoring the second part of what he said. Daichi nodded in reply, which made Mikan smile.

"Alright then! LET'S GO CENTRAL TOWN TO GET OUR TATTOOZZZAH!" she exclaimed, emphasising the plural, added onto tattoo, and grabbed Daichi's to drag him to Central town, only, to be stopped by someone.

"Oi, where do you think you're going, idiot?" Persona called out. Mikan stopped dragging Daichi and turned back and glared at her brother.

"I am NOT an idiot!" she exclaimed. "And what do you mean? Where are we going to get the tattoos, then, if not Central town?" she added, confused. Persona merrily pointed the opposite direct where she was headed to, making her sweat drop.

"Are you serious? In the academy?" she muttered in disbelief.

"Yes, now, you head in the main door, take the second left, then take the third right, take the fifth right after that, then the first left, then go straight, no matter what you see in front of you. Start heading over there, you've got less than fifteen minutes. Go" ordered Persona. Mikan nodded and turned to Daichi, who nodded at her. Together, they made their way towards the academy.

When they reached the main door, Mikan recalled what her brother had directed them. "Head in the main door and take the second left" she recalled, as she grabbed Daichi's hand and took the turn on the second left. "Then take the third right, fifth right after that, then the first left" she said all at once. She was about to drag Daichi again when he spoke.

"Oi, stop dragging me. And I was thinking..." he started off, stopping Mikan in her tracks and listened to Daichi. "How about a little race? To see who gets there first" he announced. He saw Mikan grin and spoke.

"Alright then, let's start, 3- 2- 1, go!" and with that, she ran off first. Shocked, Daichi quickly ran after her.

"OI! THAT'S CHEATING!" he called out to Mikan like a little boy. Throughout the hallways, the only sounds that were heard were the sounds of laughter and shouts coming from Mikan and Daichi. Well, Mikan was the only one laughing.

Daichi quickly caught up with Mikan and picked her up off the ground, carrying her bridal style, and continued to run with Mikan in his arms. Mikan continued to laugh hysterically in Daichi's arms as she held onto Daichi for dear life, since he was running so fast.

Mikan continued to laugh as Daichi continued to turn when needed. Daichi took the last turn, which was the first turn to the left, and stopped in his tracks. As soon as Mikan's laughs died down, she looked up at Daichi, confused upon why he stopped running. She then looked at the direction where he was looking at. When she saw what it was, she sweat dropped and commented.

"Does Onii-chan want us to die or something?" she spoke, her jaw slightly apart. Daichi snapped out of it when he heard Mikan's voice and shrugged, causing Mikan to hang onto him for dear life from the sudden movement. He let out a small 'sorry' and proceeded to walk.

"WHOA! Wait, what are you doing? Are you SERIOUSLY going to walk into the wall?" Mikan exclaimed, trying to wriggle out of Daichi's arms. Only, Daichi didn't let go.

"You brother said to go straight, no matter what is in front of us. I specifically remember, "go straight, no matter what you see in front of you" is what he said" said Daichi, slowing down to a stop and continued to speak. "You really think he would actually want us to run into the wall and die?" questioned Daichi, with a raised eyebrow.

Mikan crossed her arms across her chest and huffed. "Well..." Mikan couldn't think of anything to shoot back at him. Sure, her brother could be one hell of a freaking son of a bitch, but he is very trusting. That is, unless you do something that will make him angry.

Mikan looked up at Daichi, who looked into her eyes challengingly. Mikan nodded, mutely telling him to proceed walking. Though, instead of walking, Daichi started running. Mikan had to use up all of her self control in order to not scream, jump out of Daichi's arms and break his neck.

When they were a metre away from the wall, Mikan shut her eyes tightly, waiting for them to crash smack hard into the brick wall, when she suddenly felt something weird around her. As much as she wanted to open her eyes when the weird feeling was over, she continued to keep her eyes shut.

Daichi looked down at the girl in his arms, who had hidden her face into his chest when he ran into the wall. Well, not into the wall, but... into... the wall... Apparently, there was some sort of portal that led them to the room they were in now.

"Oi, idiot, open your eyes" he told her.

"Are-"

"No, we are not dead" spoke Daichi, cutting Mikan off while rolling his eyes. "Seriously, open your eyes or you'll regret it"

With her eyes still close, Mikan crossed her arms across her chest and looked up challengingly at Daichi.

"Really, now?" Mikan asked.

"Yes, you will" replied Daichi, rolling his eyes again.

"What are you going to do about it, hm?" she asked him. Daichi placed Mikan on her feet, knowing she would automatically open her eyes.

Mikan felt herself being carefully put onto her feet, causing her to automatically open her eyes, in fear the Daichi was leaving her. When she opened her eyes, she gasped at what she saw before her.

"Wow, this sure as hell does not look like a place where people would get tattoos. More like a place to hold a Ball" Mikan commented, as she took a couple of steps forward. Behind her, Daichi snorted.

"I told you that you would regret it" he stated. Mikan spun around a playfully glared at him. When she spun around again, someone was in front of her.

'Oh, golly gosh!" she cried out in shock. "Where the heckie did you come from?" she added.

When she had turned around, a man was standing in front her, a hand in the air, in a way to say hello. He was a quite a good looking man, as well as a tall person with silver hair and crimson eyes which reminded Mikan of Natsume. Mikan awkwardly waved back while taking a step back, closer to Daichi as the man spoke.

"Hello, Persona told me you would be coming. Please, take a seat" the man said, as he lead them to a sofa. As they sat down, a beautiful, blonde haired, brown eyed tall woman suddenly appeared.

"Patrick, time to get back to work" the woman called out.

"Alright then, Leanne" he called out as he let out a small smile and bowed, which Mikan returned, as he turned to leave.

Mikan saw the woman return a small smile before turning back and headed towards where she and Daichi were. As the woman approached, the woman let out a small smile, which Mikan returned, shyly.

"Hello, I'm Leanne. I'll be giving you your tattoos today. You two are Mikan and Daichi, right?" she asked in a kind voice. Mikan smiled brightly and replied with a nod along with Daichi.

Leanne smiled again and asked "Alright then, um, who would like to go first?"

Mikan's colour started to pale when Leanne suddenly mentioned it. She wasn't exactly looking forward to getting her tattoos. And because of that, she instantly pointed towards Daichi, who was looking away.

Feeling two people staring at him, as well as one person pointing at him, he slowly turned his head around, only to see two women staring at him, waiting.

"What?" he asked, as if he had done something wrong.

"You're up first, boy" Leanne announced as she made her way towards another area. Daichi looked around in a confused state while being dragged across the room.

"Oh, hell" he muttered when he realised he was first up to get his tattoos. "Well, might as well get this over and done with, eh?" he muttered, turning to Mikan.

Mikan let out a small smile and turned to Leanne to accepted two booklet that Leanne gave her. Mikan then passed one over to Daichi as Leanne explained things to them.

"Those are some of the designs. Choose two at the least. No matter how big or small, just check the subheading to see how high the control of Alice it is. There's low, medium and high. From my own guess, I think you two should go for medium. Well, I'm going to the other room for a bit. You go on ahead and choose. I'll be out as soon as you finish choosing" Leanne called out as she made her way to another room.

Mikan and Daichi were then left alone with the booklet full of designs for tattoos. Glancing at each other, they went over to the couch and opened the booklet and started looking through it.

"Wow, there's so many to choose from!" Mikan exclaimed as she flicked through the pages. Daichi's only reply was 'hm' as he continued to flip through the pages.

In the end, Mikan decided to get small tattoos here and there. She chose floral swirls, Sakura flower and a small flame. The flame had captured her interest for some reason. She smiled when she realised that it was Daichi's Alice.

She smiled as she finally finished choosing. She turned to see how Daichi was doing, only to see him looking at her booklet, seeing the two tattoo designs that she had circled. Mikan looked at Daichi's booklet and saw that he had chosen an outline of the sun, a dragon and a flame, like her. Mikan couldn't help but smile at his choice.

"Those really suit you..." she spoke, softly. Daichi looked up at her and gave her a half smile.

"You too" he replied back as he watched Mikan stretch. "What level?" he added.

"Level what?" Mikan asked in confusion. She saw Daichi roll his eyes and point to the booklet full of tattoos. Mikan let out a small 'oh' before answering.

"Um, one medium, and two low ones... how's that?" she asked, worried that it would be good. Daichi leaned back on the sofa and thought for a moment.

"Yeah, it should be good. You could always wear your control devices later... or more tattoos" he replied. Mikan gave a small nod, though paled at the second half of Daichi's sentence. A few minutes later, Leanne and Patrick entered the room.

"Well, you're all good, right?" she asked. The two teenagers nodded as they stood up.

"Alright then, let's go. You two will be doing it at the same time. I'll be doing Mikan's, while Patrick will do the boy's" she announced, pointing to Patrick when she mentioned him. Mikan inwardly sulked.

Seeing the worry in Mikan's eyes, Leanne reassured her with, "It's alright. It won't hurt much. Just like a scratch from a cat... well, a couple of scratches... I'm sure you've experienced worse" she said, as she led the two of them to where they were going to get their tattoos.

Daichi and Mikan took a seat and waited.

"Alright, start telling us where you want them, and we'll get started" said Leanne. Daichi spoke to Patrick whilst Mikan spoke to Leanne.

After negotiating, Daichi started first. He made sure he had a calm front so that Mikan wouldn't worry. When it was Mikan's turn, Mikan couldn't help but grab Daichi's hand.

After Daichi was finished, he waited until Mikan was finished. Not long after, Leanne finished with Mikan and cleaned up.

"Alright, you should be good. Didn't hurt too much, did it, now?" she asked in a joking kind of voice.

Mikan let out a small laugh and turned to Daichi and look at him. He had gotten his flame on his right wrist, his dragon on left side of his abs and his sun on his right bicep. Mikan had gotten her flame on her right wrist, like Daichi, her floral swirl on the back of her neck and her Sakura flower on the bottom left side of her abdomen.

"Well, this will be interesting..." Mikan murmured. She then took Daichi's right arm and held out his wrist and then held her right wrist next to his.

"We're a match!" she called out childishly. Daichi rolled his eyes.

"Come on, we ought to go" he announced. Mikan turned back to wave goodbye to Leanne and Patrick.

"You come back anytime whenever you want!" Leanne called out. Then, she quickly called out something as they entered the portal.

"OH! THE TATTOOS WILL DIS-!" she called out as Mikan and Daichi entered the portal. Mikan wasn't able to hear the whole sentence since she had entered the portal, though she set it aside for next time.

Mikan and Daichi made their way back to their rooms together, since they were living across the hall from each other.

"Gosh, I hope they heard it..." Leanne murmured to Patrick as they continued to clean up.

"The tattoos will disappear when your true love tells you that they love you with all of their feelings" she told no one in particular.

Mikan and Daichi headed to their rooms together. When it was time to part way, Mikan smiled at Daichi before turning away to leave. Only, she was stopped by Daichi. Mikan slowly turned around to face Daichi with a questioning look.

Instead of answering her, Daichi took off the leather jacket that he had been wearing and gave it to her.

"Wear it" he ordered. Mikan obediently obeyed and put on the jacket. As she pulled out her pony tail from under the jacket, she asked, "why?"

Mikan frowned when she saw Daichi roll his eyes. She was about to yell at him when he cut her off by holding her right hand and spoke in a low voice.

"Well, Miss Oh-so-wise. Have you thought about your tattoos, yet? Who are you going to be when you show your tattoos- Mikan, or Sakura? Plus, Hyuuga will start wondering where you got your tattoos in such a time" he explained, as well as asked.

Feeling dumb for her mistake, Mikan could only let out a small 'oh' before answering back an 'I knew that'. Daichi rolled his eyes again and waited as Mikan thought through his question for a few minutes.

"Well, I think I will show the tattoos on my wrist and the one on the back of my neck, since it will be harder to hide...though... I'm just wondering...how do I hide the tattoo on the back of my neck? I mean, while I'm Sakura... because I often tie my hair up..."

"Wear some sort of jacket or shirt or whatever it is that will cover your neck" Daichi cut her off. Hearing this, Mikan scrunched up her nose. Daichi gave her a questioning look.

"I don't like those jumpers with the long neck thingy mabobs. What are they called again? Um... turtle neck jumpers or something. I don't like them..." she muttered. Daichi raised an eyebrow.

'Seriously, this girl... she doesn't realise that she could look good even in a garbage bag...Anything that she wears looks incredible on her...' he thought. He stayed quiet for a moment before replying.

"Don't worry, you'll look good. Now, you sure you're going to show your tattoos as Mikan? What about the Sakura flower tattoo?" Daichi questioned her.

"Well, I'll hide that one. I'll only show it when I'm Sakura...which," she then lowered her voice even lower than it was in the first place and continued, "might be tomorrow..." she then continued in her normal lowered voice, "when we go on the mission"

She then shook off the atmosphere and looked at Daichi, who had cocked his brow at her. Mikan poked out her tongue childishly at him.

"Alright then, now, I guess I'll be going. Bye, Ken!" she exclaimed as she turned around to head to her room. Behind her, she heard Daichi grumble something under his breath before he called out her name, stopping her in her tracks. Mikan slowly turned around to see Daichi in front of her, holding out his arms around her. Mikan closed her eyes, thinking he was going to hug her or something.

Her eyes shot open when she felt his jacket move. "Eh? What are you doing, Ken?" she asked, confused. She saw Daichi roll his eyes as he proceeded to fix the collar of his jacket, so that the collar was standing up, covering her next. Mikan let out a small 'oh' as she smiled sheepishly.

"Right... so he can't see the tattoo... I was about to do that..."

"Sure you were" Daichi answered back, rolling his eyes...again. Mikan smiled and tip toed so she would reach Daichi's cheek and kissed it.

"Thanks. BYE~" she called out, as she skipped to her room.

Daichi stayed behind and watched Mikan's retreating figure until it disappeared. Finally, he turn right and headed towards his room while shaking his head and a smirk appearing on his face.

When Mikan went into her room, she quickly shut the door and went to her walk-in closet. As she changed into a plain white t-shirt with sleeves that ended at her elbows and black leggings, she thought about Natsume. As she made her way out, she quickly grabbed a dark grey hoodie and threw it over her head.

As she stepped out, she stopped dead in her tracks at the sight before her. "Natsume..."she muttered as her eyes widened. She was about to speak, when she saw the way Natsume looked.

Natsume stayed silent, staring back at Mikan, as she stood still, not daring to move a muscle. He saw her open her mouth, ready to say something, only to cut herself off. After a moment of deafening silence, Mikan spoke.

"What are you- Natsume... how did you-" she started off, keeping her eyes on Natsume, who seemed to have snap out of daze.

Mikan silently gulped, and stood still, still not daring to move a muscle. She opened her mouth when she was cut off by Natsume, who was looking her into the eyes. Something about him at the moment made her feel guilty all over.

"Natsume, what are you- I mean- How did yo-"

"When were you going to tell me? Actually, scratch that, what ARE you going to tell me, Polka?" Natsume questioned her, eyes staring hard at her. He then added something with his own concerned look that made Mikan weak in the knees. He then asked her one more question with, not anger, not disappointment, but hurt in his eyes.

"When are you going to start telling me the absolute truth?"
