The Past, the Present

I was playing in the sandbox while Natsume and my cousin Ruka played
on the swings. A couple of minutes later, Ruka went to the restroom so
I walked up to him. Natsume. I actually have liked him more than
anything…so I feel that if I confess he will too. I felt the tingling sensation in my stomach. Of course I was nervous. I never confessed to anyone before, though I thought about only so many times. Only to Natsume, though. No one else mattered.

"Natsume?" I asked. I was so nervous I came out in a whisper. I straighten my shoulder back. I am Mikan Sakura.

"Hn."

"I like you."

Now he's going to say the same too…just like mommy and daddy!
"I don't. Who would like an ugly eight year old like you?" He scoffed and during the process he made something shattered, something as fragile as glass. My heart.

"Oh,"

Of course being me I pulled a fake bright smile and ran inside cousin Ruka's house.
I went inside with my head down, hoping Ruka didn't see the tears that I tried to hold back, as he walked past me. 'He's only 10. I'm not ugly. Mommy and daddy said so.' I looked into the mirror that was inside the bathroom and I looked at myself. I had a messy mane of dull brown hair, round glasses that took a portion of my face, crooked teeth that needs serious whitening, and I suppose straighten. I was also short and kinda on the fat side but that doesn't make me ugly right? I stared long and hard in the mirror. Right?

~13 years later ~

Natsume

"Hey, Ruka." I walked to the chair opposite of my best friend at the cafe, we sat outdoors, for some strange reason Ruka likes the outdoors. I guess. Apparently he had some news to share; I was only there for my best bud although if a vixen walked by I wouldn't hesitate to use my charms...
"Hey, my cousin, Mikan is coming by soon."
"Why? Hasn't that geek learned already."

'I hadn't seen her in like 12, 13 years? She's probably still that ugly fat ass nerd. A nerd that was never smart. I don't see how she can be so hideous and Ruka be soo hot. I'm not gay or bi though...just stating a fact. Last I've seen her was when we were all ten and she confessed to me, but then she moved away to America right? She was and probably still is a fat little wimp. I bet she couldn't even stand to see me. Then again I am Natsume Hyuuga so it's more like I can't stand to see her (so unworthy to see this godly sexiness).'

"What did you say? Never mind. Well my car broke down, and the thing is that
for some reason we need to go her mom's house, so she's just going
drive us."

"Hn."

A waitress suddenly came up to us, emphasizing her hips, as she strutted over. She had platinum blonde hair, and a pretty smile, more like okay, actually. I've seen better… I guess. She had a tight fitted black v-neck bodice shirt, a black mini ruffled skirt, and a mini
apron. Though I might give her a second look if she didn't wore bright red lipstick. She wore to much lip gloss as well, it made it
seem like she was pouting.
"Hi, would you guys like something?" she asked sweetly, she fluttered her eyes a bit too much, which was smeared with too much mascara, and green eye shadow.
'Too needy. probably another wannabee'

"No." I simply said, looking at the street. A lady with black high heel boots and tights, with a pink shirt tucked in, head held high, walked by. Her lips pouty looking her cheek bones unnatural high. She got major jobs done. I sighed. Are there no real hot girls anymore? Do I, Natsume Hyuuga, have to settle with people like that waitress that is still here? I should be dating a super model!

"Are you sure?"
It was obvious that she was just stalling to talk to us. Ruka, being half French and half Japanese, made his looks irresistible. My badass hot looks made me too and I know that no one was complaining, me or the girls. I looked away again while Ruka tried to get her away. A girl with long flowing auburn hair got out of a red convertible. She had an awesome figure and curves that could beat the goddess of lust, long model-like legs and her boobs was a plus. She was wearing a white v-neck shirt with ripped jean shorts, a black belt, and a black mini leather jacket, with black ankle boots.
"Hey Ruka, isn't she hot?" I nodded to the hot brunette. I saw Ruka's eyes go to where I was pointing, than slowly grew wide. He suddenly looked back at me with bewildered eyes.
"Natsume, that's my cousin, Mikan."
