Do you like me or love me

Chapter: 1

Rain, rain and more rain! What a bad day for howalons. She was planning to go to the central town. Mikan sighed as she walked through the hallway, passing fan boys staring and drooling at her. (She didn't bother running today) Ever since she turned 14, every boy in the Alice academy seemed to have noticed how hot she really is. Except for the raven- haired boy who is also known as Natsume. Mikan always had a strange and weird feeling in her every time she went near him. She can't really figure it out but she knows she's just over acting. Mikan began to pick up the pace, when she finally reached her classroom she gently pushed the door open and gave her usual greetings.

" Good morning every one"

" Good morning sakura Mikan" The class replied. She then walked pass Hotaro with a frown. She didn't even try to hug her or say hello. She just walked pass without a word. Why didn't she say hi? Hotaru stared at her as she walked to her seat, which was right next to Nastume.

" Ohio Sakura Mikan…umm…nice… clothes" Ruka slightly blushed. He still finds is nerve racking to talk to the girl he had a crush on since he was ten. " Umm…Sakura are you okay" He stared at the brunette who was somehow drifting into space.

She suddenly snapped out of it when she felt a hand on her right shoulder.

" Na-Ruka…" she hesitated when she found out she was about to Natsu-Oh- you- know- who

" If you're wondering where Natsume is, he's in hospital" Mikan suddenly remembered everything. What had happened between her and Nastume last night. In her room. He was severely beaten by one of the teachers after the event in her. No wonder she felt upset and weird.

"Yeah and if you're thinking about visiting my Natsume, you will wish you were never born" Sumire butted in with her usual attitude. Before Mikan could say anything Narumi walked with a cheerful smile. (Mainly because Nastume isn't here). The whole class (as if planed) stopped the mumbling and the whispers.

"Now as you can all see we are missing a student in our class, you all know who, and you're all invited to visit him later on this afternoon. Oh and since the rain won't last till tomorrow, you will all have to stay indoors. Any questions? " Some raised their hand up and Narumi picked randomly. Guess who he picked…Sumire.

"So what can we do if we get bored" she asked

"Well there is an assignment for every one. Each of you has to look after a young toddler or should I say buddies for a whole week. And if you manage to take very good care of him/her you'll get an A" Narumi smiled.

"Can't I just stay with Natsume till he gets better? " Sumire begged.

"Sorry but that's all for now your buddies will be waiting for you after break. Now it's free period. See ya" Narumi walked out and everyone went back to their whispers and chatting.

What's wrong with me? Why am I thinking about Natsume at a time like this? Mikan thought ignoring everything Narumi said.

"What's wrong with me? Why am I thinking about Natsume at a time like this?" Kokoroyomi said, since his Alice was reading minds. Mikan gasped when she realized he was reading her mind. Everyone turned to look at her and Sumire frowned in anger.

"Shut up!!" She yelled.

"Can I just have some piece and quite" Kokoroyomi read.

"Please stop…" Mikan sobbed

"Natsume, Natsume, Oh Natsume"

"ENOUGH!!" Mikan yelled finally using her nullification Alice. The class just stared.
