Chapter 1

Mikan Sakura. Sakura... her last name sounds familiar... Oh yeah! I remember! I heard about how she met her handsome and sexy husband. Actually, Mikan is the only daughter of the Multi-Billionaire, Mahito Sakura. She was kind, smart, and wealthy and the most sought after woman in Japan. She had three best friends namely Hotaru Imai, the eldest daughter of the Imai Corporation. Next was this pink haired girl named Anna and her fraternal twin sister Nonoko. They are the best of friends but lets get back to Mikan since she is after all the leading lady of this story.

It was one of those dozy days where the thick gray clouds, covered the beauty of the sun. Mikan Sakura was still at her soft king-sized bed, curled up, hugging a pillow like a little child. Her i-pod playing a sweet melody that made her hypnotized to sleep even more. But there is always one thing that made this woman awake, the wrath of the Baka Gun of Hotaru Imai, her best friend.

The door smashed open with a loud bang as the famous rich daughter of Imai Corporation took her Baka Gun and released three big bullets heading towards the poor sleeping girl and made her eyes flutter elegantly but tiredly open.

"Hotaru, would you please stop doing that every morning?" Mikan said as she rubbed her eyes and her head. She stood up on the floor and inserted her feet inside her pink fluffy bedroom slippers.

"Then stop waking up late. It's already six am" Hotaru said emotionlessly while placing her Baka Gun back to her bag. "You know that I am an honor student in class and an honor student must not set a bad example to the school. So I must be always punctual at everything, you got that?"

"Yeah, yeah… You can always go to school by yourself you know… No need to accompany me just because you love me and care for me…" Mikan said and went to get her towel.

"For your information, I will not go to school by myself because the price of fuels in cars right now are increasing and I want to go with you not because I care for you or love you but because our family needs to save money and I can save money by riding on your limousine." Hotaru said and sat down on the couch with her legs crossed.

"Hmph. Heartless blackmailer." Mikan said and went inside the bathroom. After thirty minutes she went inside her walk-in closet and got her college uniform.

This was their last year in college taking up the business management course so both Mikan and Hotaru can have the corporations of their family to be handed to them.

Mikan combed her hair and got her things and went downstairs. Her father was waiting at the dining room reading the newspaper.

"Hey dad, morning!" Mikan said and kissed her father at the cheek.

"Morning, honey! Why don't you eat first before going to school?" Mikan's father said and closed the newspaper to face Mikan.

"No thanks, dad. Hotaru's here and she doesn't want to get late so we better go now." Mikan said and looked at Hotaru who was at the door of the limousine tapping her foot. Mahito nodded his head.

"Hana, where is my magazine?" Mikan asked.

"Here it is Mikan-sama." She bowed and gave the latest magazine to Mikan. Mikan bowed her head slightly and went to the limousine. She got inside first then followed by Hotaru.

They were finally at Alice Academy. Alice Academy is one of the finest and best schools in Japan owned by the Hyuugas. This school was built for ages and this school was handed down from generation to generation with the Hyuuga clan of course.

The shiny, black limousine caught much attention of the students. They already knew who it was just looking at the plate number of the car. 'MS' was written on the plate number. Nobody knew what it really stands for but some were guessing that it stands for either Mikan Sakura or Mahito Sakura while some were guessing both.

So Mikan and Hotaru went off the limousine and went inside their classroom. They were twenty minutes early and Hotaru was quite relieved at that. They're class starts at eight.

'I wonder what's going to happen this morning' Mikan thought and smiled to herself looking at the window. She saw a raven-haired guy sitting under the shade of the cherry blossom tree and he was reading a manga.

'Is he a student here?' Mikan asked herself. 'Well, duh! He's wearing the uniform of our school!' she mentally slapped her self. 'But why is he cutting classes? Cutting classes are strictly prohibited. Maybe he has a very strong family that's why the school can't punish his actions.'

Another blonde boy came towards him as he sat down beside him. She noticed that the blonde boy got the raven-haired guy's hand.

'What the hell? Are they gay?' Mikan thought.

Before Mikan could think another sentence about that mysterious raven-haired guy and the blonde boy and their gayish acts, their first teacher came inside the class.

"Good morning, I am Narumi and I will be your first teacher for this day." The blonde teacher chirped happily. Every student in the class thought he was a unique for his actions were somewhat gayish. Even his clothes made him look gay and his hair too.

'I love gayish teachers, they are unique and funny.' Mikan thought and went back and looked at the window but the raven-haired boy and the blonde boy wasn't there anymore.

'Where could they be?'



It was lunchtime and Mikan will be hanging out with Hotaru, Anna and Nonoko, her best friends. They said that they would meet at the garden of the academy where they always have lunch.

Mikan went there and found her best friends setting up a mat just like what they used to do back in high school.

"Mi-chan! I'm so happy that I could see you again." Anna hugged her best friend tight.

"Yeah, Anna… I'm suffocating…" Mikan said having a hard time to breathe. Nonoko tapped Anna's shoulder. She released Mikan from her tight hug.

"Anna, you're suffocating Mi-chan! And it's not like you're not going to see Mikan again." Nonoko shook her head.

"You're right. Mi-chan will never leave us, right Mi-chan?" Anna asked.

"Of course, you three are the most important persons in my life and of course including my father." Mikan said.

"Will you stop the drama already? It's giving me goose bumps." Hotaru said and rolled her eyes.

"Stop over reacting, Hotaru! Hey, I noticed that you stopped selling pictures from popular people? Would you mind telling me why?" Mikan said.

"It's because the popular people aren't popular anymore. So I have to find the perfect bait that will never decrease its popularity among girls." Hotaru sipped the tea.

"And I thought you gave up on blackmailing." Mikan whispered.

"What did you say, Mikan?" Hotaru asked her and fakely smiled.

"Oh, its nothing, Hotaru. Really!" Mikan denied while Hotaru looked at her suspiciously.

"Why don't we eat already? Nonoko and me are hungry and I baked cookies." Anna said proudly.



Classes resumed when the bell rang twice. Students went to their respective classes and Mikan went to her next class, which was Math.

She hated Math although she had good grades but she never liked the lessons. She sat down at her usual seat and waited for the teacher to attend to them. And just in time, a read head teacher with eyeglasses went inside. He looked strict with his chest out posture and his face had a scowl plastered on it.

"Afternoon, I am your Math teacher, Jinno. Call me Jin Jin" he said.

'This is one teacher that you should never mess up with.' Mikan thought as she sat properly and listened to Jin Jin.

"Use the quadratic formula to answer this problem…" Jin Jin stopped when there was a knock on the door. He opened it and another teacher was there, beckoning him to come over to a very important meeting with the headmaster of the school.

"Sorry but classes will be cut since the teachers have a very important meeting to attend to." He said grabbed his books and went off.

After Jin Jin left the classroom, students started to whisper and murmur about the meeting Jinno had to attend to. Mikan was never interested in these topics so she decided to go home.

"Hotaru, I'm going to walk back to home." Mikan said and without even waiting for the reply of her best friend, she went out of the room leaving the door open.

Mikan's POV

Sigh. I'm so glad that Jin Jin had a meeting to attend. Even though school had just started, there is much homework the teachers gave. I guess I'll be working on it when I get back from home.

Oh, I almost forgot, the latest magazine that Hana gave to me. I better read it.

Let's see… In the horoscope section… Where the heck is Capricorn…. Capricorn…aha! There it is…

Capricorn: Today is the day. (Okay, what did the magazine mean by that?) Be true to yourself and never lose hope even though someone has to ruin your day. Prepare yourself for something unexpected.

Okay, that is way creepy. The magazine didn't completely say what today is. It made me very confused and it kind of made me nervous? Why?

I'll look for my lucky and unlucky number then…

Your lucky number is 31 and your unlucky number is 13 so be careful.

I was walking along the street reading a magazine that says 'Number Thirteen is bad Luck' and unfortunately, got bumped by a raven-haired boy wearing a number thirteen shirt. That's right number thirteen… WHAAATTT!!! Number Thirteen?! Could my life get any worse?

I mean come on, I have so many things to do and I also have to maintain my grades then suddenly, I got bumped onto this raven-haired guy! This is totally a nightmare!

"Watch where you're going!" he said and pushed me out of him since we were in an awkward position.

"Sorry" I said and stood up and gave a hand to him but he ignored it.

"I can stand up by myself you know." He said. Quite obnoxious, isn't he? But I don't care! He even made my day worse… The horoscope is right, number thirteen is my unlucky number and I have to stay away from that number from now on.

"Don't be rude. You can at least say 'no thanks'… you…you conceited jerk!" I screamed at his face and I saw a scowl plastered on his. I guess I've hit a nerve on him but he deserved it.

"You!" he pointed at me. "You're going to regret this!" he said and curled his hand into a fist ready to smash my face but stopped when a blonde boy came up.

"Natsume, stop! You know it's not good to hit a lady." At least the blondie ceased him before that fist came giving my face bruises.

The blondie looked at me, "I'm really sorry for the unpleasant behavior of my best friend. Please excuse him since he's got some issues right now." Blondie said and bowed slightly.

"It's okay." I said. "Just tell him not to be too arrogant of himself." I said a little bit louder so he can hear and I saw his eyes roll.

"Thank you. We should get going now. Bye Miss…um…" blondie said as I continued his sentence.

"Mikan, just Mikan, nice to meet you. And you are?" I asked him. He smiled at me.

"I'm Ruka Nogi and that guy over there is my best bud Natsume. He seems pretty upset right now so that's why he almost hurt you." He said and looked at the OAC guy. (OAC stands for Obnoxious And Conceited)

"See you later!" blondie said as they went off. That's something unexpected. I can't believe I made a friend here!

I was just wondering where they go to study?

Publishing house (Normal POV)

"Mr. Editor! It seems that we made an error at the horoscope area."

"What?! Why did you tell it to me now? Our magazines have been released everywhere already and you're telling me there's an error! Goodness!"

"I'm so sorry sir but it seems that the Lucky and Unlucky number of Capricorn were switched. I'm really sorry."

"It doesn't matter anymore. It's just a horoscope anyway. This section is just for fun. And readers won't even notice that."

"Oh okay."
