Chapter 18 (Final)

Mikan gasp as she turns her head around and saw Natsume panting real hard, but their distant was quite apart.

"Why is he here?" Mikan mumbled.

Mikan was preparing to runaway, but her wrist was caught by Natsume.

"Don't run" Natsume mumbled with his bangs covering his handsome face.

"Let me go you insensitive jerk!" Mikan shouted while trying to struggle out of Natsume's strong grip.

"I will not until you come back with me." Natsume said, scratch that, commanded.

"Let me go! I will not go back with you!" Mikan screamed.

Natsume couldn't persuade Mikan to go back with him, so he decided to drag Mikan to somewhere that could cause less attraction.

"Where are you taking me? I said let me go you big fat jerk!" Mikan kept struggling but it was no avail.

"…"

"Answer me!" Mikan demanded.

Natsume dragged her to somewhere with trees surrounding them so they will not attract so much attention and pinned her to a tree.

"What are you trying to do with me Natsume!?" Mikan shouted.

"That's what I want to ask you, why did you have to run off the wedding store leaving me there like an idiot?" Natsume look straight in the eye.

"Why? Is that a question you should ask? Ask yourself you blockhead. To you marriage might not be something important, but to me, is very important. I didn't get a guy that I imagine I would and heck I didn't even get a proper wedding proposal from him!" Mikan explained sarcastically.

When Natsume heard this, he felt a tinsy winsy ashamed of himself and slowly, he let go of Mikan.

"I'm going home." Mikan said bluntly, but things will not always go the way you wanted, so Natsume grabbed her arm and pulled her to him and he crashed his lips on to hers, making her have the shock of her life.

Mikan was struggling a little bit, but slowly she realized that she couldn't win Natsume, so she gave in and respond to his kiss. After 10seconds, Mikan and Natsume finally broke the kiss, and then Natsume pulled Mikan in to his embrace.

"Nat-Natsume?!" Mikan shuttered.

"Mikan, I'm sorry I've always teased you, make fun off you, humiliate you and force you, but don't tell me that you hate me." Natsume struggled to say. (A/n: OOC I know…)

So Natsume finally let go of Mikan and kneeled down in front of Mikan then took out a red velvet box, when he opens it, Mikan saw the ring that she gave back to Natsume.

"Hey isn't that-" Mikan was going to finish what she wants to say but was cut off by Natsume.

"Mikan will you marry me?" Natsume asked.

"Pinch me and tell me this is a dream." Mikan said, not believing what her eyes just saw.

"OUCH!! Why did you do that for?" Mikan retorted.

"You said pinch you, so I did." Natsume replied bluntly.

"Stupid jerk!" Mikan stuck her tongue out.

"So, what's your answer?" Natsume asked.

"Let's just say if you dare cheat on me, the next thing you'll see is a paper with my signature on it. (Divorcement form)" Mikan smile and Natsume quickly grabbed her and plant a gentle kiss on her lips.

Ding Ling

"I'm back" Mikan said to her friend that is still waiting in the wedding store.

"Finally, took you long enough." Sumire said.

"Now faster go choose a dress for the marriage dinner." Anna and Nonoko said together.

"O-okay." Mikan sweat dropped and walked away.

"So how did you bring her back?" Ruka asked.

"Well, she just couldn't resist me." Natsume smirked, but luck was not his side today, what he said was heard by Mikan before she go in her fitting room. She walk quickly towards Natsume and stomped him hard on his legs.

"WHAT THE!!" He shouted while carrying his legs.

"Let's just say he persuaded me." Mikan smile and said to Ruka, and Ruka being himself, just sweat dropped.

2 weeks later

The church is the most beautiful thing you've ever seen, it's white and the garden is surrounded by lilies and iris, making it look so serene and holy.

There are many people that could be seen in this crunch, Anna, Nonoko, Hotaru, Sumire, Misaki, Kei, Tsubasa, Ruka, Koko, Yuu, Youichi, Mochu and Aoi.

Mikan wore her beautiful wedding dress that was specially ordered by Natsume, and now she is walking down the red carpet to the altar with a beautiful smile, and those who is on the same red carpet as Mikan is, the ring bearer, Hijiri Youichi, the flower girl, Hyuuga Aoi, and the maid of honor, which is Anna and Nonoko.

When Mikan reached Natsume on the altar, he smiled to her.

"You look very beautiful today." Natsume whispered to her, not minding the fact that the priest is babbling stuff about love and god.

"Thank you, you don't look half bad yourself." Mikan whisper back.

"Do you, Hyuuga Natsume, take her Sakura Mikan, to be your lawfully wedded wife? To have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish; from this day forward until death do you apart?" The priest continued his vowed.

"I do" Natsume replied.

"And do you, Sakura Mikan take him, Hyuuga Natsume, to be your lawfully wedded husband? To have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish; from this day forward until death do you apart?"

"I do" Mikan replied.

"Hyuuga Natsume shall give Sakura Mikan this ring in God's name, as a symbol of all that you have promised and all that you shall share." The priest said and Youichi came up to the altar with a red cushion in his hand, and on top of it, is a red color velvet box with two beautiful rings.

Natsume took one of the rings and place it in Mikan's ring finger, and Mikan did the same too.

"And by the power invested in me, I pronounce you Husband and Wife, now you may kiss to end the vow."

After the priest said finish his sentence, Natsume snaked both of his hand on to Mikan's waist and Mikan put both of her hand on Natsume's neck, when their lips met, the whole crowd went crazy, they cheered and whistle through out the whole church.

As Mikan and Natsume went out of the church and to the garden, so did the crowds.

"Now is time for me to throw the flower, now girls get ready." Mikan said.

After what Mikan said, all the girl rush and stand a few feet away from Mikan, and when Mikan turn with her back facing them she goes in to count down mode.

"So I think the plan did go well, except it took a little longer than we thought." A rough man voice said.

"True, the 'Making-Natsume-confessed-to-Mikan-using-Kei-as-her-fiancée' plan. But I hope I'm not going to do it another time." A female voice is heard.

"I always know that Mikan will choose Natsume." The same man voice is heard.

"Well, I don't mind as long as my darling daughter is happy."

And yes! Bingo! It's Yuka and Shiro!

"What! Now don't say that, your daughter is destined to be with my son!" Shiro argued.

"Oh please, I think it is your son that needs my daughter. If your son doesn't want her, Kei can have her." Yuka protested.

"Now, now, is their big day auntie and uncle, don't you dare say anything bad." Hotaru warned them.

"Okay, fine." Yuka gave up.

"I'm just going to be talking with the guest." Shiro said.

After they both left Hotaru showed an evil glint in her eyes as she took out a voice recorder and played.

'"So I think the plan did go well, except it took a little longer than we thought." A rough man voice said.

"True, the 'Making-Natsume-confessed-to-Mikan-using-Kei-as-her-fiancée' plan. But I hope I'm not going to do it another time." A female voice is heard.

"I always known that Mikan will choose Natsume." The same man voice is heard.

"Well, I don't mind as long as my darling daughter is happy." The same lady voice is heard.'

"I could really get paid by this." Hotaru said.

"3" The girls started to squeeze here and there.

"2" The girls stiffen and they are nervous.

"1!" Mikan throws the flower!

After the Mikan throws the beautiful flower, many girls went crazy for it, as they screamed to get it. Well, who wouldn't? The myth behind it was whoever catches the flower of the bride, will be the next one getting married.

So as the flower drop in to the crowd, it was a war? Or should I say disaster? Lady stomping here and there just to get a flower, and unexpectedly, it landed on Aoi, who is sitting just right beside Youichi.

"Ah! Congratulation Aoi! Even though you are still young, I hope that Youichi will be the one you married to." Mikan went up and greet them.

"Eh?" Aoi obviously still blur.

"Good luck bro." Natsume patted Youichi's head.

And so, this is how Mikan and Natsume's story goes, and we shall all hope that you will also have a happy like them too, but also be warned, not every 'once upon a time' will end up with a 'happy ever after'. May god bless you my friends!
