Eyes of Mine
The last chapter! I hope you enjoy this one!
So now we enter the future, and what are we to expect? Marriage? Yuki an older, more independant woman? Hotaru's baby? Oh, what will Hotaru's third child look like, you ask? You'll have to read to find out!
Me: I loved making this story! I am so totally smiling whilst writing this! And again, so sorry for the late updates. My sister is happy I have finished this story, because now she says I can get on with a Naruto based story. I don't really read or watch Naruto, so I keep asking her questions on the characters... I can relate to the Gakuen Alice cast a bit more, you know?
Disclaimer: I disclaim to owning all rights to Gakuen Alice, the characters and the script. Anyways, I am not Tachibana-sensai, and I just have to say she is amazing. I still need to read M to N no Shoujou, but what I have read of it is amazing, and so is Swan Lake. Anywhoo, disclaimer over and out!
Thnak you for reading this story all the way through. It has been a treausre to write, so yay! -claps happily- This chapter may be short, so I am sorry if that it is so. -bows-
Chapter Eleven: Those Eyes of Mine
When I first met you, I never expected how our lives would turn out and how much we would change through that very first meeting. I instantly knew that you were special to her when I first laid eyes on you. Instantly, I could tell that you were going to rule a part of my life, but the things that tried to test our new found relationship were a struggle. Luckily, we seemed to struggle through it, and in the end, we were victorious. I want to let you know that I love you, and that I am sorry for whatever I did to upset you. You are now in my life, and I am happy. You love me and I love you, and there is no doubt about it, because you are my father...
8 Years into the Future...
"Waaah, momma, do I look okay? Oh my goodness, my hair's a mess! Momma!" cried out Yuki as Mikan ran into the room to see Yuki sitting in a chair, wearing a billowing silk white gown with a white veil hanging down the back of Yuki's head. Mikan sighed, running towards her daughter. Mikan herself was wearing a long white gown with a flowing skirt, her hair in a wave of curls and wearing whilte lace-up heels.
"Yuki, honey, your hair is fine, and you look absolutely beautiful! I have never seen such a beautiful bride!" Mikan told her daughter, but she still tidied a few loose strands of hair that had fallen from the clip in her daughters hair,
"You're so lovely, your husband-to-be will be so speechless!" Mikan whispered as Yuki turned red, then quickly grabbed her mascara, ready to lengthen and thicken her lashes with a thirteenth coat.
"Mom, don't flatter me!... what about you? Won't papa drop to his knee's whemn he catches sight of you?" asked Yuki, smirking as Mikan herself turned red, then stared at her reflection beside her daughters.
"Hm... you're fathers used to waking up next to me, he won't notice a difference, Yuki." Mikan told her daughter who gave a small snort, and tried to make it as elegant and lady like as possible.
"Yeah, whatever... but seriously, you look gorgeus, momma. Papa really will fall in love with you all over again. He may have seen you in many types of clothing," Yuki said, with Mikan turning a dark red , "but he has never seen you in a wedding dress. He'll be so shocked when he see's you,"
Mikan placed a hand on her daughters shoulder, then kissed her powdered cheek. She straightened up with a sigh,
"I still an't believe I'm going through with this... a double wedding, with my little girl... you're growing up." Mikan muttered as Yuki laughed sweetly,
"Yes, I am, but so are you, momma. But don't worry, you still have Honey-Rose and Shiro Hikaru! They are still kids, and have a long way to go before they grow up!" beamed Yuki as Mikan laughed,
"You're right!... Actually, speaking of Honey-Rose, I wonder where she is..." muttered Mikan to herself, looking around the room. Her youngest daughter and second born child, Honey Rose Sakura Hyuuga, was their bridesmaid, but the two didn't know where she had run off too.
Suddenly, a shreik was heard, and both Mikan and Yuki knew what was happening with the 7, nearly 8, year old girl,
Suddenly, that very girl came bursting in through the doors, her black hair a tumble of curls and waves with her long pink dress billowing behind her, but before Honey-Rose had entered, a boy had stormed in before she did, looking like he needed a hiding place.
"Hide me!" yelled out Kiori, the 15 year old son of Ruka and Hotaru. As a teenager, he looked exactly like Ruka did, but his usual expression was replaced with worry and desperation. He wanted to hide from Mikan's daughter, who had suddenly caught hold of Kiori.
"Gots you! Come on, mister!" she snapped, and trailed Kiori out of the room as Mikan tried her hardest not to laugh. Yuki kept a straight face whilst Kiori glared at the two brides-to-be's, and Honey-Rose grinned as she stared at her prey... er, friend.
"Honey-Rose, what are you going to do to Kiori?" asked Mikan. Honey-Rose looked up, blinking. She then smiled, showing each other her teeth, perfectly straight and white.
"Make him marry me, of course. I need a real man in my life!" she said proudly, one hand on her hip, the other clutching Kiori's shirt as he blinked down at the kid who probably didn't know what she was talking about. And that did it. Mikan and Yuki couldn't contain themselves, and burst into fits of laughter. Kiori narrowed his eyes at them, but let Honey-Rose drag him off to wherever she wanted to go.
"Aw, Honey-Rose has a little crush!" giggled Mikan as Yuki shook her head, smiling,
"Yeah, but it's a little... illegal, isn't it? I mean, Kiori's about seven years older than her!" Yuki pointed out as Mikan smiled herself, nodding.
"For now, but once Honey-Rose hits sixteen, they'll be able to be together... although she might have changed her views by then, seeing as Kiori might have a different type of woman he likes. After all, Honey-Rose is a little outrageous, isn't she?" asked Mikan. Yuki agreed,
"Oh, yeah. She is definately that." she muttered, then suddenly, another person came bursting in through the doors, wearing the same sort of dress that Honey-Rose was wearing, but it was more elegant, less babyish and more fitted to the body, showing off the girls' slender figure. She was blonde haired and violet eyed, the oldest daughter of Ruka and Hotaru at 14.
"Auntie Mikan, Yuki, have you seen Chi? She's run off again!" cried Hana, a little out of breath from running. She was talking about her 8 year old sister, the third child and second daughter to Ruka and Hotaru.
"No, I can't say we have, Hana. Where do you see her last?" Mikan asked her bridesmaid as the girl sighed, shaking her head.
"The lounge, but that kid just goes off to wherever... Oh, man! I'll kill her!" snapped the female replica of Ruka, stomping out of the room.
"Don't get blood on the dresses!" Mikan called out as Yuki laughed, then another giggle was heard, and a little girl wearing the same pink dress as Honey-Rose popped out of the closet, grinning like the devil. She had long, bouncey blonde hair and blue eyes. Another child of the Nogi's, obviously.
And even though Hotaru had promised to never have more of Ruka's children if the third turned out to look him again, she had not kept that promise, as she had another two children... who looked exactly like Ruka,
"Auntie Mikan, shhh!" giggled the 8 year old, and then another two little girls came out of the closet after their older sister. They were twins, aged 5 years old, and the anelic pair of the whole family. They were Freya and Leia, who were also wearing the bridesmaids dresses like their big sister, who quickly ran out of the room with her little sisters following her obediantely. Mikan rolled her eyes at Yuki, who just smiled.
"I fell so sorry for Kiori, having to live with so many girls, and then he comes to visit us for sanctuary, but is bombarded by the wrath of Honey-Rose," Yuki said as Mikan nodded,
"Yep, but that's life... anyway, we need to finish getting ready, or we'll be late for the wedding." Mikan told her daughter as Yuki nodded, finishing off her make-up as Mikan tidied their hair...
"Hey, dad... how long do women take to get ready?" asked Shiro, the only son and youngest child of the Hyuuga family as Natsume shrugged. His son and best friend, Ruka Nogi, were his best men for the wedding.
Natsume was extremely nervous, even more nervous than Tori, the soon-to-be husband of his daughter, Yuki Rari.
"I have no idea, but they do take a while, don't they... Man, I hope they come soon, this suit isn't the most comfertable thing I've worn..." Natsume muttered as Ruka rolled his eyes,
"What are you rolling your eyes at?" growled Natsume as Ruka smirked,
"Nothing, Natsume... it's just you're fussing so much. Don't worry, the wedding'll go fine. If it's you and Mikan, you're sure to tie the knot. I'm more worried about Yuki and that Tori guy, seeing as they're young. You and Mikan don't have much left in your life, so this should be exciting for you," Ruka joked as Natsume scowled.
"The cheek of it... I'll burn you good when this wedding is finished," he hissed, but had to shut up, because the organ music started to play. Natsume snapped his head up, and faced the alter, just like the nervous Tori, and they heard footsteps.
The first thing that came down the aisle was the ring bearer, Kiori, who was forced to hold the hand of Honey-Rose, who was beaming happily whilst the crowd in the pews awwed at her cuteness. Kiori hated every living moment of it, to be honest.
Next came the other bridesmaids, with the twins, Freya and Leia coming first, then Hana and Chi. Hana looked straight ahead whilst Chi just skipped around, waving to people and curtseying happily. Hana shook her head, but smiled.
Then came in Mikan and Yuki, holding hands. Both of them were as nervous as each other,
"Oh my... wow!" breathed Shiro, nudging Natsume in the ribs. Natsume looked at his 6 year old son disapprovingly, because he had nudged him hard, but he forgot about the pain quickly when he looked up to see a blushing bride, well, two of them, walking his and Tori's way.
Mikan was red, and looking at the ground, but when she looked up her eyes locked with Natsume's, and she almost melted. This was it, she was finally getting married to Natsume. Both she and Yuki were going to be with the men they loved, and they would be happy for a life time.
Mikan stopped, standing beside Natsume, and she let Yuki's hand go as Yuki smiled,
"I love you," she mouthed, then turned to Tori, who whisperedsomething to her as Yuki smiled, then gently kissed him. Mikan looked at Natsume, taking in every detail of him as he took in every detail of her. He then took her hands, and kissed her gently on the mouth,
"I have seen you in some of the most outrageus things, Mikan Sakura... but this beats everything hands down. You're gorgeus beyond words," he told her as she blsuhed harder, then kissed him on the lips, too.
"My words can't describe you, either... But you look like the perfect man," she told him as he grinned.
"I already knew that," he whispered as Mikan rolled her eyes, then they turned to the alter where the two pledged their vows alongside Yuki and Tori, and they said the crucial words that Natsume and Mikan had been waiting to say for a long, long time.
"I do."...
We watched our sadness slowly turn into our happiness, and we watched it through those eyes of mine...
