I do not own Gakuen Alice.

Chapter 20 – Almost perfect.

"Berry stop fucking up my hair!" a very frustrated Natsume growls at me. I can't help it! His hair is just so soft and smooth and shiny.

"Did you know what whenever you walk, your hair bounces?" I grin at him.

"No it does not, stop being retarded." I looked at the other direction.

Is he..?

I grab his face to see if my assumption was right and by some form of magic or luck I am.

Here in my hands I have a blushing Natsume. Cute and adorable would be an understatement.

He took my hands into his and hides his eyes with his bangs. Like that is going to save him from my wrath!

We were messing around because we were waiting for 8:45pm for the movie to start. I take a look at my watch, it reads 8:43pm.

"Natsume lets go! I don't want to miss the trailers of the upcoming movies." I pulled him by his black leather jacket. Oh by the way he looked really hot if you guys were wondering.

He wore a plain grey V-neck with washed out skinnies and his badass leather jacket and a pair of his timberlands. His hair was in its usual messy state.

I on the other hand wore my black super skinny jeans and a hoodie that has New York in gold on it. I had a grey beanie on my head and I wore my high-cut leopard converse. Yeah I know he dresses better than me.

We race to our theater and sit at the back, top rows actually.

"I wanted nachos…" I subconsciously mumble to myself while taking my seat and lean back abit.

Just when I sat down Natsume got up and started to walk away. Maybe he needs to pee? Weird.

I get comfy in my seat and watch the trailers of the movies. Oh! I have got to watch hunger games 2!

About 5 minutes later Natsume comes back with nachos, popcorn and two large cup size cokes. I help him out by taking the nachos and one of the cokes. I try not to spill my coke but it was dark and I think I spilt some on my jeans but it'll dry up anyway.

We both sat down and I whispered a 'thank you' in his ear. That smirk of his didn't slip away from my view even if it was dark.

I munched on my divine cheesy and saucy nachos while Natsume ate his caramel flavoured popcorn. We were watching Thor 2. I love all of the avengers but Thor definitely steals my heart. I mean when he gets mad it's just so cute! He breaks everything and anything. I look at Natsume and for some bizarre reason I start comparing him to Thor… Naaah!

The movie went on and I wooed and screamed at a few scenes, which earned me a few glares from Natsume but do I care? Yeah I totally do (sarcastic).

While I was being captivated by the movie, I couldn't ignore the fact that I felt an arm slip around my shoulders and pull me in.

I didn't know how to react to this so I just stayed still and tried to concentrate on the movie again.

But things don't always go the way you want it to does it? I could feel the heat radiating between our bodies and I got this tingling feeling in my tummy and it seemed like the movie took forever to end. Usually I would wish movies could last forever but I wasn't having a super hot guy's arm around me before.

His index twirled with strands of my hair and I felt a jolt of comfort coarse through my body, starting with my head.

You know when you feel like you are in complete serenity and you just want to be stuck in that moment forever?

I feel that when I'm with him.

I gave up trying to flee and just placed my head gently on him chest. I could feel his heartbeat…

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Is this guy even human? His heart is beating like he on steroids! But my heart is doing the same thing so I won't judge anymore.

The movie got over and let's just say that lovey-dovey shit I was feeling? Yeah, it got aids and died tragically. Why you ask? Because I am totally pissed at Loki.

Ok I don't hate Loki, I'm all cool and smooth with him but how could he deceive Thor like that? Making him think that it was his father when it was just his illusion! Fucking son of- no I love Loki's adopted mother. I even cried when she died, someone good just has to die right?

"Berry, where are you going?" Natsume called me out.

You know I still haven't gotten use to that name it gives me the chills but good chills more or less.

I turn around and see him sanding under a lamppost about 10 feet away from me.

Was I really just walking randomly like that? Amazing what deep thoughts can do to you.

I walked back towards him where he gave me a worried look.

"What?" I said innocently.

"I don't know, I asked you how the movie was and you said 'Loki is a bastard' and went on walking, so babe you tell me." he said with his left brow twitching abit.

I give him a sly smile and pull one of his cheeks not to hard but when I realized how soft his face was I just had to pull both his cheeks.

"ahhHHhHHHHHhhhhHHh!" he bawled out.

He caught my hands desperately trying to pull them off his cheeks, which only made me pinch even harder, but alas I felt bad and let them go.

He rubbed his cheeks and flexed his jaw abit, honestly he looked like an idiot but I think I hurt his ego enough today.

"Natty, babe how have you been? Missed me on your lonely nights?" a cheeky voice came from behind him. I couldn't see who it was because Natsume was so… big.

A sudden vexation leaped into my mind on who the hell could that be… and why the fuck did she call him 'babe'.

I think I heard Natsume hiss out a 'shit' or something I couldn't make out.

He turned sideways to see whoever this girl is and let out a big sigh.

It saw some black haired girl with blue eyes. She had a petite body but with unbelievable curves. She looked like an evil Barbie in other words. A mustard crop top with a long red pencil skirt and blue pumps. Surprisingly she made it work until she walked up towards us and I saw her face that is.

Let's just say that Amy Whinehouse's eyeliner got nothing on this chick I mean she resembles a raccoon that got bunched in both eyes, full on foundation and ridiculously heavy blush-on and lets not forget the rouge bloody red lipstick.

Her face looked like a clown reject.

But none of that mattered to me because the only thing I'm staring at is her ludicrously French manicured FAKE nails on Natsume's chest and her face was inches away from his.

I suddenly had a urge to yank her off him and drag her down the street to that near by alley and do very malicious things to her, old habits don't always die.

Natsume had an annoyed look on his face. He jerked her off him and gave her a cold glare.

"Could you not do that infront of my girl?" he says bitterly to who ever this bimbo is and snatches my hand to bring me right next to him.

I couldn't hide the smile at how he is taking this situation. I've heard Anna fantasize about moments like these. You know those ' he'll pull you close and claim you as hi girl infront of everyone' kind of cliché things. How could stuff like this be happening to me? Maybe because it's Natsume Hyuuga.

The tramp look infuriated and her eyes glared at me with pure hatred. Someone is obsessed a little bit too much.

"You are seriously choosing this hand-me-down hoe over me?" she callously said. That stung a little.

And is Mikan Sakura going to take that shit from a tramp? HA! Hell no.

I removed Natsume's hand from my waist and smile sweetly at her.

She is actually my height even with those skyscraper heels on, not enough height? I go in real close to her, I was about 3 cm away from her face. I put on the most devious look I ever could and I see her eye twitch at the discomfort of the closeness.

"Are you intimidated?" I whisper to her.

No answer.

"Good, now what the fuck did you just call me? A hand-me-down?" she freaked out abit and pushed me, well tried to push me but I didn't budge. But instead she lost her balance and fell flat on her butt. I didn't even do anything and she already did so much, which I know she will blame later on me.

I don't usually look down on people, it's not in my nature but when she was already on the floor she gave me no choice. I smirk at her current demise almost cruelly.

She looked so humiliated and I actually felt bad for her but that was only 5% of what I'm feeling right now.

I tilt my head to the right abit and she looks at me with horrid eyes, like she's standing infront of the devil's wife. The irony right?

"You're not worth my time, you can't even stand up when someone pushes you down. You just cringe into a corner and sob forever." I say with a hint of pity in my voice.

"Let's go Hyuuga." I look back at him and we walk the other direction away from her.

And when I was out of her comfort zone she got up and yelled out loud enough for us to hear- Natsume-.

"What the fuck do you see in her that I lack?" she was desperate for an answer and she longingly gazed at Natsume.

Hyuuga sighed and rolled his eyes. He looked back at her with a you-are-stupid look.

"You lack originality." Was all he said to her and that was that. We walked on ignoring all the empty curses and threats she screeched out. We were in our own little bubble again.

I didn't want to go home yet, I know it was late but what would I do at home anyway?

"Let's go to the park." I said. Hyuuga only nodded and we walked there without saying another word. The silence wasn't so bad, I didn't really care actually. We walked and passed by some other by standers who stared back at me or us I guess.

It's ridiculous, have they never seen two teenagers walk the earth or something?

"They will make wonderful babies if they last long enough" an old granny said.

"Grandma! Don't say stuff like that" a frantic 14 year old looked at me wide-eyed.

I look back with a smile; I mouth a 'thank you' to the old woman.

I don't know if Natsume heard it but that thought of him and I having kids made me want to scream out. Literally.

After a few more minutes of silence, we finally reached the fountain.

It still looked amazing as always; it's like when I'm here all my problems go away, like every heartache would alleviate into nothing. The air was colder here but not so cold it would hurt or affect my breathing.

I walked up to it and sat down with my back facing the outer walls. I looked at Natsume as he sluggishly sat beside me. Our arms touched and I liked the warmth shared. His presence did wonders; it made me feel guarded at all times. No one could lay a finger on me.

"I'm sorry" he muttered under his breath while looking straight ahead.

"About what?" I really had no clue what he was apologizing for.

"About Andreia." He said with a straight face.

I'm not stupid, I may act like that sometimes but that was to hide the pain. You see the more innocent you are the less pain you see but once you do see the pain it really takes a toll on you. I just fake it so people wont see my vulnerable.

"So, how long were you with her?" it just slipped my mouth.

"I was never with her to begin with!" he defended himself.

"One-night stand kind of thing?" I couldn't make it sound polite, ok… I'm hurt I know. Who wouldn't be?

He just looked at me searching my face for something; I had a poker face on so good luck with that Hyuuga.

"You better not laugh because if you do…" he had a childish smile on his face.

Ok, now I'm just confused.

I waited for him to tell me what he meant but I guess he still didn't trust me enough so I got up annoyed only to be pulled back down roughly.

"What the fuck Hyuuga?" I said.

"I didn't sleep with her" he suddenly said.

"Oh, but you did with a bunch of other girls right?" I didn't look at him; I didn't want him to see how much it hurt. I was at war on the inside trying to prevent the tears from falling.

"Mikan, you don't get it. I never slept with a girl" he played with my hair. He does that a lot when he's nervous around me.

"Liar." How could I believe him? After all the things Sumire has told me?

He grabbed my wrists and makes me face him. There was a slight pressure on my hands but it didn't hurt me but caught my complete attention.

"Why would I lie about something like this?" he looked me straight in the eye.

So, The Natsume Hyuuga is a… Vi-Vir-VIRGIN?!

I can't, I just had too. If not I would explode and no more Mikan.

I erupt with laughter and I felt hot tears form in my eyes. That whole bad boy, perverted, virginity-taker reputation he has is a complete lie?

"Hey! Just because I'm a virgin does not mean I didn't do shit Sakura" he tried to be all badass but I knew he was trying to protect his wonderful pride.

"You..-ahahaha- vir-ahahaha- and I thought you were a sex addict" I cant remember the last time I laughed this hard.

"Are you still mad now?" he asked still concerned that I might be pissed abit.

I looked at him and he looked like the boy I met here all those years ago. How could I be mad?

I move to him and cup his face.

"No, I'm actually really happy you managed to subdue your hormones for all these years." A chuckle slipped out.

"Shut up."

I laugh again.

I hadn't realized how close we were until he leaned in a stole a kiss from me, got up and ran.

That bastard! I ran after him screaming curse after curse but underneath it all I was proud of him in a way.

(Somewhere close by)

"Hey Reo, isn't that the ex you were talking about?"

A mad Mikan was chasing a black haired guy, she wasn't so far behind him.

"Yes it is!" a malicious smile crept onto his face while watching the two enjoy each other's company.

"Someone's jealous."

And next the only sound heard was the crushing of his fellow teammate.

It was an unexpected punch that couldn't be dodged. He held his nose trying to press against it to ease the pain.

The rest of the team fell silent and were to scared to deal with Reo's wrath.

"Back to the game, we are going to crush those vermin."

Reo's last thoughts were cruel but he was determined to make it reality.

"You will be mine."
