''Why should I?''

''Because you're my partner Natsume! Dammit! And you're my friend!'' Mikan tried
again (for the 45 time) persuade Natsume to play a good Alice partner and
socialize with her. However, as always she did not suceed.

He just looked at her and coldly replied: ''Do you really expect me to go to
Central Town with an ugly polka-dottet-panty-girl like you?''

Mikan stopped. She blinked, closed her mouth and really stopped. She got this
insults everyday. They were just jokes, but still insults. She looked at him, at
his handsome face, his black hair, his red eyes and his cool look. He really did
look great. He was a nice guy. Sometimes. And she liked him. She really liked
this stupid, good-for-nothing, handsome jerk.

''I can't believe myself...'' she said loud enough for Natsume to hear. He just
looked at her strangely and raised his eyebrow:  ''Wh-? You can't believe
yourself? What's that supposed to mean?''

Mikan looked him straight in the eyes and wondered about her thoughts. She was
staring at him and Natsume didn't actually know, what is happening or what is he
supposed to do. 

''Polka... Say something!''

But Mikan kept silent. He was a jerk! He really was an asshole! And although he
was a smartass and egoistic wannabe star, she liked him! 

She liked him! 

How does that go?
 
Was she that stupid or what?

And he? Was he blind?

Her emotions were seen on her face, but Natsume did not understand, what was she
ruminating about.  He became a bit unsure.

Mikan noticed that and decided! He was going to regret every single bad word, he
said to her. 

Natsume Hyuga! 

You are going down!

She smiled devilish.

Natsume blinked and looked at her as if she was crazy. 

''Oi! Polka! What's wrong with you?''

But Mikan just laughed laud out, looked at Natsume for a second and turned
around. Slowly she walked away and did not stop to laugh. If Natsume thought
that she was nuts before, than he was sure that he was right now.
