Six. 02:15 p.m.
"That idiot," Natsume Hyuuga mumbled under his breath, as he searched for the brunette who was nowhere to be found for the last half an hour.
He specifically told her to wait near that damn Chinese restaurant.
But she wasn't there.
He growled out of frustration, as he parked his car near a children park, a few streets away from the restaurant.
If he couldn't find her by car, might as well just look for her in the place where he was certain that she would be present.
The raven-haired sighed, as he entered the park. It was eerie for an idiot (i.e. Mikan Sakura) to wander around.
"Let me go," he heard her yell.
Panic took control of his senses. He ran, where the source of the voice could possibly be. Thanks to his developed-cat ears.
Who was she with? Is she alright? What the hell that idiot is yelling? Were the questions he inquired in his mind.
Natsume was out of breath, when he caught the petite silhouette with a man, twice the size of hers.
He was about to interfere, but he didn't see the need to.
It wasn't because he was a selfish and narcissist teenage boy, who didn't even want to save her guts. Hell no.
It was because she had the situation perfectly handled, upon watching the scene.
Mikan was in a fighting position -like the one she used whenever someone tries to provoke a fight with her-. The man scoffed, probably thinking how pathetic she looked right now.
It wasn't the case though.
What the man didn't know, was the fact that the so-called idiot had a bottle of pepper powder behind her back.
Natsume smirked. She finally listened to his warnings - such as bring a bottle of pepper powder whenever she feels she's in danger and spray it on the 'bogeyman'.
Which she totally did.
"Gomenasai," she softly spoke, "But Natsume told me that if someone that I didn't know tries to touch me, I have to spray this to them."
That soft-hearted idiot.
"Oi, Polka!"
She turned around, her hazel eyes widened at the devil smirking at her.
She felt mortified at the smirk plastered on his handsome features.
"N-natsume? What are you doing here?" Mikan asked, as soon as she rushed over him, ignoring the weak protests from the stranger.
He held her by the wrist, and dragged her out of the park. His grip on her wrist was... reassuring and calmed her nerves.
"Idiot," he faintly murmured in the thin air but she caught it.
The owner of chocolate eyes did not comment, seeing how frustrated and tired he looked. There were huge bags under his crimson eyes -from what she could see, thanks to the moon- and his raven hair was messy. He was wearing his PJs, with a navy blue jacket at the top.
Once they were in the car -away from all meanies-, Natsume did something she despises.
He flickered her on her forehead.
"Ouch! Meanie!"
"Idiot. You told me to pick you up," he coolly stated.
She looked guilty, "Gomenasai, you took a long time and I was bored so I decided to go to the park, but then that evil man wanted me to go with him but I said no and then he tried to touch me so I sprayed like you told me to."
He barely caught what she said in her speedy explanation, but he, nonetheless, understood.
Natsume remained silent. He turned the engine on, and began to drive.
The ride was completely calm and for once, Mikan did not blabber nonsense. She was lost in her own thoughts.
"Ano, Natsume?"
He spoke too soon.
"Hn." He concentrated on driving, and she knew that.
"What does a bitch mean?"
The car suddenly stopped. Natsume turned to face her, his crimson eyes darkened.
"Who called you that?" His tone was even harsher. She flinched.
"R-reo called me that. Is it a bad word?"
Her innocence would get her in trouble, that's for certain. He sighed and resumed back to driving.
"Tell meeee," she whined.
"Only if you tell me what the hell happened."
She looked at him, hard. Why was he so curious? That perverted-fox should mind his own business!
But... Her inner voice told her, He did drive you at two a.m. The least you could do is tell him what happened.
A sigh escaped from her rosy lips.
"Deal."
