"Apologize? Hn. Who needs to apologize to Polka? We didn't do anything wrong." the fire castor said coldly. But inside, he was regretting. He let his pride took control. His world crash into the brunette's weak heart and she couldn't hold back anymore.

"Why should I forgive you?! You never cared for me?! Your stupid pride always come first?! If I told you I was leaving, 3 years ago, you wouldn't even care?! Don't think about apologizing?! I don't need your apologies?!" Mikan cried as she ran out the door, followed by Zero who was sending them cold glares.

Natsume hid his eyes under his bangs and jump out the window and went to the sakura tree.

"She came back. She's still the same. Except she isn't the same girl who calls me Natsume. Sh-she even had a boyfriend...why, Mikan, why, even though I stole your first kiss...why? Please, Mikan, don't leave me. Forgive me. I'm sorry. I'll prove to you that I love you and I am better than that Tajima."

Chapter 12

Mikan ran down the hall with her hands covering her face. She didn't look at where she's running. She needs to get away from them, especially that damn Hyuuga. She don't care that her boyfriend is running after her, she could outrun him and she did. Why did she have to come back? Why can't she just stay in America with everyone? Why does that bastard have to come and ruin her happy time. She was running so fast that she didn't realize where she was heading until...

BUMP

Mikan stumble backwards and fell on her butt. She didn't see who she bumped into and wept her tears furiously. She apologize to the person in front of her when she tried to stand up.

"Mikan-nee?" said a soft quiet voice. With wide eyes, the brunette look up and saw a familiar emerald-green eyes staring at her.

"You-chan?" the brunette said with jaws dropped to the ground. "I mustn't let him see me like this." she thought as she plaster a big fat fake smile on her tear soaked face. She quickly gather the small boy in a big bear hug that she longed to do. The little handsome boy returned the hug as he finally saw his beloved "sister".

"Mikan-nee! It's really you! I missed you so much!" cried the young ghost summoner. Mikan smiled as she look and caress the now 10 years old boy.

"Yes You-chan. It is me. I've come back." The brunette said.

"Onee-chan did Na-"

"MIKAN?!" shouted a voice down the hallway. Both of them turn and faced a panting handsome silver-haired boy.

"Jeez. what kind of legs do you have?"

"Mou Zero!" Mikan said as she giggle and lightly punch his chest. Youichi could sense that something is going on with these two.

"Next time, don't run off like that, okay?" Zero said while Mikan blushed. A dark aura was coming out from the silver-haired little boy. He obvious doesn't like this handsome teen. "Who is this bastard?! Who do he think he is?! The only person who can make onee-chan blush is onii-chan?!" Zero turn and look at Youichi who was glaring HARD at him.

"Mikan, who is this?" Zero asked. "What's wrong with this kid?"

"Zero, this is Youichi Hijiri. He is like my little brother. You-chan, this is Zero Tajima, my boyfriend." Mikan introduced.

"What about Onii-chan?" Youichi said with bangs covering his eyes. Mikan can sense the sad expression from him. "What about Onii-chan? It thought Mikan-nee love Onii-chan. Why is this stupid bastard her boyfriend? No one is supposed to date Mikan-nee! Only Onii-chan is allow to?!" the ghost summoner screamed in his head as he glare at Zero.

"Eh?" The brunette said.

"What about Natsume-nii? I thought you loved him." Youichi breathed out. Mikan's bangs were covering her eyes while Zero clenched his fists when he remembered that Mikan had a long-term crush on the fire castor.

"Hyuuga is a nothing to me..." Mikan said as she walk away with Zero leaving the shocked Youichi behind.

Unknown to them, someone was watching them and heard every single words they said.

Mikan and Zero were always seen together. All the "friends" of the brunette wants to approach her and apologize to her, but she always ignore them. The little ghost summoner try to find a chance to let Natsume and Mikan be alone, but the boyfriend of hers wouldn't even budget to let them, gaining hatred from Youichi and Natsume.

Mikan wander around the academy. Zero is off in a mission. She insist to go with him, but he wouldn't want her to get hurt. She was also wondering why they weren't let her go missions even though she had the rarest and strongest alices.

"This is so boring. Mou~ they wouldn't even let me take the mission with Zero..." the brunette thought as she whip the ground with a long grass. She didn't notice that she was walking into the garden. She look around with bored eyes, and seeing that there was no body, she slump against a tree, the sakura tree, their sakura tree. She gaze upon the sky. "A lot of things happen. Hn." she thought.

Suddenly, a strong hand clamped over her month. Mikan tried to break off. She turn around and saw a pair of blazing crimson eyes. She didn't know why she couldn't take her gaze off of the crimson eyes. They were filled with hurt, regret, love, and other emotions that are you cannot explain with words. She napped out of the daze and "glare" at him.

"What do you want, Hyuuga?" the brunette hissed. Natsume flinched when she called him "Hyuuga". He missed the sweet voice that called him "Natsume". He miss her smiles. Even though she smile everyday, but her smiles were only directing Zero. He missed her. He's fighting the urge to hug her.

"Nice try Polka. How many years had you focus on your glares?" he smirked. Wrong move.

"STOP CALLING ME POLKA?!" she shouted, causing the birds to flew away and the fire caster to smirk even more.

"You haven't change have you?" he smirked.

Mikan threw his hands away and walk away, cursing under her breath. How dare he insult her.

Mikan walk away from Natsume and start walking toward the special star dormitory. She fish out her spare keys that Zero gave him and open his room. She sunk into the couch, waiting for his return. It's getting late and he haven't return. Mikan start to get worry. She knew what the missions were like. Before she know it, she was dozing off.

An injured boy came jumping in the room. He gritted his teeth as his hands cover his wounds. He had scratches everywhere.

"What kind of school is this?! Good thing that they weren't let Mikan go on these freaking missions." he thought as he walk in the bath room and start cleaning his wounds. The cut on his right shoulder were deep. He took a quick bath and came out. He quickly apply the medicines that Persona gave him for his wounds in case if a certain brunette finds out that his mission is deadly dangerous. When he went to the living room, he saw his sweet angel dozing off on the couch. The boy smiled. "She must have waited for me." He carried the sleeping brunette into his bedroom and put her gently on his bed.

Next Morning...

"ZERO TAJIMA?! WAKE UP?!"

Zero groaned as cover his eyes from the bright morning light. He blink a few times and open his eyes. His vision was blurry as he blink a few times, adjusting his vision. In front of him was a furious looking brunette with hands on her hips.

"What the hell? Strawberry why did you wake me up so freaking early?" he said as he yawn and sit up. He look at the his angel with dwelling eyes that could fall any minutes and messy silver hair.

"When did you came back? Why didn't you wake me up? And most importantly, DID YOU GET HURT?!" she said as she turn the half-asleep boy around, checking for injuries. Lucky, the big slash on his right shoulder quickly healed. Thanks to the medicine.

"You were asleep when I came back so I didn't want to wake you up. Yawn. I'm tired. Call me up in about 15 minutes..." Zero said as he slump back in his bed. It's only 6:15 and his freaking girlfriend waked him up. He found something missing so he pull the brunette down beside him and cuddle her tight while the brunette blushed a thousand shades of red.

"Go to sleep. It's way too early. POLKA." Zero whispered in her eyes and smirked as he saw the big dark melting chocolate eyes widen with shock.

"MY NAME IS MIKAN NOT POLKA BAKA ZERO?!"

Natsume's POV

"MY NAME IS MIKAN NOT POLKA BAKA ZERO?!"

"Ugh, who would shouted in this early in the morning. Wait...WHAT?! How dare Tajima call her "Polka"! Only I'm allow to! No one should call her that nickname except me! Watch out Tajima."

I thought as I toss and turn in my bed. I couldn't get back to sleep now. Thanks to Polka. I stood up lazily and walk in the bathroom and took a quick shower. The cool water rain down my silky raven hair. After the shower, I put on my uniform and brush my teeth. It is still early so I walk out. I know that across from my room is that Tajima and Polka's is next to his.

"Polka...Mikan...I will get you back..."
