Summary: It's the story of a typical, talented but too shy to show it, nerd and like to hide in own shell type of girl. One day a handsome guy and the most sought-after heartthrob in the school befriended her and courted her afterwards. They became the most controversial couple then. They were the talk of the Academy. Definitely NOT YOUR dream girl and definitely YOUR dream boy is a love couple! But the twist of fate happened. The nerd girl found out that she's just being played by the once she thought her Prince. She left and after years she came back. But she's different now than before. For she is now carrying sweet revenge in her return…

Sweet Revenge

Chapter 1: A Girl Can Make You Cry

A girl with brunette hair is crying in front the tough raven-haired guy. Tears keep flowing on from her hazel eyes. Hurt..no..very hurt is evident in her eyes. Hatred from the guy infront of her is very visible, too.

"You play on my emotions." She said, full of regret, at the same time confusions in her voice. How could this guy whom she loves so much more than herself hurt her? Hurt her very much. How could he?

Tears are still flowing from her eyes. She keeps on wiping them, but it just keep on flowing. Flowing and betraying their master.

The handsome raven-haired guy just plastered a blank look, he seemed does not care that the girl is crying out hardly and needed his comfort. He just stared at her hazel eyes. He could see anger now and not the love, which he usually seen at her when they were together. Were not are. Past not present.

"So?" the raven-haired guy nonchalantly grunted, hands on his pants pockets.

"You said you l-love me." She stammered. Oh, she couldn't handle this anymore. Mix emotions inside her. She could feel that her heart was broken into pieces, and see her world cut apart.

She noticed that the guy's Adam's apple move up and down, as if clearing something. "I always say that to every girl. It depends upon them, if they will believe me, besid- "

SLAP!

The brunette girl couldn't stop herself from slapping hard the handsome guy's cheek. She bowed and covered her eyes through her bangs. "Enough." She begged weakly.

The guy only touched his swollen cheek. Hearing gasps from the people surrounding them.

"I hate you Natsume Hyuuga." She continued in a low voice, but enough for him to hear.

The guy just stared at her blankly.

She then lifted her face to meet his dark eyes. Her tears could not stop flowing. She does not care anymore that she just shown her weakness in front of him and to many people present there. She does not care anymore to the world. She just felt dumb numb at the moment.

"Someday…" she said, wiping her tears again, ".. A girl can make you cry." She ended, before running from the crowd especially to him...

"Kkkriinnnnnggggggggg!"

"Oh shit!" a girl with brunette hair and hazel eyes cursed upon waking up. "Stupid dream." She cursed again. 'I dream it again.' Her mind yelled, repeatedly.

She sighed after couple of minutes just staring blankly at the white wall, and decided to went inside her bathroom. She looked at herself in the mirror, and then touched her own reflection.

"I dream it again." She whispered after a while. She couldn't help but glanced at the earring on her left ear.

She tried to stop herself from reading the printed name, but after struggling in her own, she ended up processing the name embedded in it. Natsume, the name reads.

She closed her eyes, calming her pounding heart. She wanted to get rid of him in her system, but she could not. As long as the earring is with her, she won't be able to forget him. For years, she's been trying to get rid the earring, but, it's more than a steel to just wear off easily. Damn.

She sighed frustratingly again. She asked the same question a thousand times again. Of where could her ex-boyfriend bought the damn earring.Because of this, she still felt herself belongs to him. The memories of the past she already buried long time ago were still like a film keep on playing in her mind.

She sighed for the third time. No point arguing with her own self. She took a bath and brush herself then got dress. After doing all the things she needed to do, she sat on her bed. Thinking of something again.

Then the ring of the telephone inside her room interrupted her thoughts. She just stared at the phone not for a while now, then after five consecutive rings she finally decided to answer it.

Not all the time that the telephone inside her room will ring. She knew that whoever the person who called her surely has important matters to talk with her, and definitely connected to the most memorable place, rather, school in her entire life.

"Hello? Mikan Sakura speaking." She answered softly.

"Mikan-chan!" the voice in the other line cried, obviously happy to hear her voice.

Mikan recognized the voice. She smiled immediately, "Narumi-sensei!"

She heard Mr. Narumi giggled. "Oh, Mikan-chan you have not forgotten me. Yokkata!"

"Oh, I would never forget you, sensei. So what's up?"

"It's fine, Mikan-chan. I just called to check if everything is ready." Mr. Narumi said, happily.

Mikan glanced at her baggage. She just finished packing last night. "Yup. I'm done. The flight is this afternoon 15:00." She informed.

"Good to hear that. After two years staying there in U.S you're finally back to your home school!" Narumi obviously sounded glad.

Mikan just smiled. "Yeah. It's nice to be back." She only said, trying to sound glad too for the good teacher, but her smile slowly faded at the thought of it again.

Of course, Mr. Narumi didn't see it, "Oh, Mikan-chan there will be a Masquerade ball tomorrow night. The timing is just right in your arrival. The Academy requested you to perform for tomorrow night. Is that okay with you?" Narumi informed, hoping to hear a 'yes' from his favorite student.

Mikan sighed, if before, she's too shy to perform in front of a crowd. Now, she's somehow different and changed. She gained confidence to herself. She smiled and answered Mr. Narumi, "Of course, sensei. It would be a pleasure for me to perform for the Academy."

"Oh, just great, Mikan-chan. I know you can do it!" Then Mr. Narumi said few more things before he ended the phone call.

Mikan was left staring nowhere. She will finally be back to Alice Academy. She knew that everything had change now. What would happen now after her arrival? She could not help but muse it. She knew she left a mark in the Academy for them to remember her. Being once a girlfriend of the famous Hyuuga Natsume was enough for her to be popular. Not because of her intelligence or talents that made her well known, but, simply because of being the girlfriend of the famous Black Cat made her known in the population.

'Damn!'she cursed at the thought of him, but she felt her hand shaking. Not shaking for nervousness or fear, but, from excitement?

Yeah. Excitement. She waited two years to officilally come back to the Alice Academy she once left. She waited for the day to be face to face to him once again and show him, that's she's different from the Mikan before to the Mikan now.

The eyeglasses, braces, and the out-of-fashion dress were long gone and replaced by a beautiful yet innocent face of a brunette. Abroad really did a great part in her blossoming. From being the nerd and 'ugly' duckling she was, is now turn a beautiful swan.

"Thanks to Hyuuga." She mumbled sarcastiscally to herself.

Then all of a sudden a mysterious smile plastered on her face

"Tch. It's time for my sweet, tasty revenge..."

-۞۞۞-

At the Alice Academy the next morning…

Everyone is excited for the upcoming ball that gonna happen that night. Everybody goes here and there to prepare themselves. The ball is the most awaited part of the Alice Academy's Annual Festival.

Everyone is excited apart for a certain raven-haired boy who is resting under the Sakura Tree, while, looking blankly at the skies. You couldn't guess what he's thinking right at the moment.

Then a pair of shoes approached him, but he still didn't bother to look at the intruder. Then the intruder sat beside him, while, patting his bunny.

"Ne, Natsume..." a blonde haired guy with ocean blue eyes, called. He seemed bother of something.

"Hotaru and you had misunderstanding again." Natsume guessed, still not looking at his best pal.

Ruka, the Animal Pheromone Prince, stayed silent for awhile. "Yeah. You guessed it right." He admitted. "You see, I'm just late from our supposed meeting, she then became angry and suddenly decided not to be my partner in the ball tonight." Ruka sighed after saying it. You could hear in his voice that he is very bothered at the idea.

Natsume, this time, glanced at his best friend. "How long you're late, Ruka?"

Ruka who was hesitant at first answered his question while looking at the view in front of him. "Ahm...one hour and fourteen minutes?" he answered, unsure.

Natsume smirked. "It's your fault." He concluded.

"Yeah, yeah, it's my fault, but I need to do something very important-"

"Much important than her?" Natsume cuts.

Ruka bowed his head. "She's the most important to me, but I did an effort to tell her that I'll be late but the squirrel I tasked to tell her didn't reach her." He explained, desperately.

"Don't wait to lose her completely, Ruka." He advised, but it sounded more for himself.

Ruka managed to read between the lines what Natsume trying to say. He looked at his best friend, feeling pity of his fate. He then changed the topic. "Natsume, you are going to the ball tonight, aren't you?" he asked him.

"No." he answered directly.

"But everyone are expecting you to come, Natsume. Even Andou and Herizawa will attend," he's talking to their two other friends who just graduated in the Academy. The ball is for Alumni also and the graduates are free to come in the annual festival ball.

Natsume didn't bother to respond and just placed the manga on his face.

Ruka just shook his head, and then stood up. "In case you change your mind, I left a suit in your room for you to wear." He started to walk. "Thanks for listening, Natume. See you tonight." He then left.

When Ruka was gone, he got the comic off his face, and stared on the blue skies again. He knew the efforts of Ruka and the others to get him out from his misery after she had left him. But it is so clear to him like what the skies are showing right now that it is his own fault why he was in his own misery in the first place.
