Chapter 1 – Plans

Everyone was so busy on their senior year. Mikan and all her friends decided to continue their studies at Tokyo University, where Tsubasa and Misaki are now studying at, which the Alice Academy allowed them to do on two conditions, everyone would still continue to do mission once a week and not one of them may use their alice. That will be no problem for them since they were already doing missions for the academy more than once a week and the academy would give them an instrument in which they would not be able to use their alice. They also decided to share an apartment together.

Everyone became a couple as well except for Natsume and Mikan. Ruka and Hotaru started seeing each other 6 months ago while Yuu and Nonoko, Koko and Anna and Mochu and Sumiere started last year on their junior year.

Their whole batch knows about Natsume and Mikan, Most guys in the academy would like to court Mikan since Mikan became beautiful and more mature. She was not the dense type anymore. She also learned how to take care of herself and act more like a lady; she also wears her hair down now. Unfortunately, soon that the guys try to court or go near Mikan, they would either have burned marks, animals rushing to them, experience having a scary illusion or being levitated away from Mikan. They all know that this was Natsume's friends doings and they were willing to help Natsume, to give him more time and courage to confess to Mikan.

Mikan knows how Natsume feels for her. She feels the same way but she feels that Natsume should be the first one to confess, after all his is the guy here. Then she remembered the conversation she had with Hotaru.

-Flashback-

"Hotaru, I can't seem to wait much longer. I don't know why he can't tell me his feelings for me. I feel that I'm not good for him. We'll all be going to college now and what if I meet someone who I'll learn to like in the end I'm getting tired of waiting." Mikan said

"Well if that happens Mikan, it's Natsume's lost." Hotaru said.

-End of Flashback-

-Inside the Cafeteria-

"Hey guys! I've already spoke to the land lady that we'll be staying at. She already received the money we sent her for the down payment for the apartment." Yuu said

"That's great Yuu! Now as far as I remember, it has 5 rooms, each room has a bathroom, a small living room and a kitchen with a dining room as well. This is so cool guys! Now, we just have to talk about the sleeping arrangements and chores to do" Anna said excitedly looking at everyone.

Yuu, Mochu, Koko, Sumiere, Nonoko, Ruka and Hotaru was staring at her as if she was not suppose to say anything like that to them then the rest was staring at Natsume and Mikan.

"Isn't it obvious Anna? We should sleep and stay with our boyfriends, Baka!" Sumiere said while hugging Mochu. Mochu just smiled at her wondering how he fell for Sumiere.

"Hey wait a minute, not everyone has a girlfriend or boyfriend! You guys all know I'm not taken yet as well as Natsume so we cant have that kind of arrangements." Mikan said, hoping that it would give a hint to Natsume to speak up and ask her to stay with him instead.

Mikan looked at Natsume, waiting for a response when he stood up and walked out of the cafeteria not even bothering looking at the gang.

Mikan irritated stood up as well and said, "This is hopeless guys! That jerk! I'm tired of waiting. We can continue the arrangement that Sumiere mentioned and I will take the room and Natsume will sleep on the living room." And she walked out as well, not smiling at all.

While everyone was continuing their dinner, Ruka suddenly spoke and said, "We have to do something, I feel that Mikan would not be able to take this any longer.

"That what I heard while reading Mikan's mind" Koko said frowning.

"Don't worry guys, I have plan. I'm getting a little irritated as well at Natsume for being a coward." Hotaru said smiling mischievously.
