Yes, I'm still sleepy. However, I've decided to post my newest story here since well... I don't wanna explain, okay? Just read it if you want. Here's the summary, by the way:
SUMMARY:
The whole female population has always treated Natsume Hyuuga like a god. They practically kiss the ground that he walks on! Thus, he doesn’t respect them and treats them as objects - mere playthings that can easily be discarded & replaced. However, that changes when he meets Mikan Sakura: a bar waitress turned personal maid.

NOT JUST A TOY
Chapter One: Selecting the Next Target

DISCLAIMER: Higuchi-sensei already owns Gakuen Alice so even though it has been my dream (for several years now) to own it, that would be impossible.

OPENING NOTES:
I know that I promised you guys that I’d update Baffled but seeing that nobody seems to care about that story, I lost my interest to continue editing it. Besides, I wanted to try this style of writing so…
Anyway, I hope that you’ll find this new story of mine fairly entertaining.
By the way, probably most of this fic will be done in Mikan’s POV but nevertheless, I’ll specify the POV I use in each segment of my story so as not to confuse you.

(Third person POV; whole chapter)
“Remind me again why I’ve decided to come with you to this place,” a blond male says as eyes the establishment in front of him with apparent distaste.
“I never asked you to come. You may leave if you want,” his companion answers with a shrug. “I’ll have fun by myself,” he adds as he opens the door to the bar with a smirk.
His blond friend rolls his eyes at this “Oh I remember now. I came here to make sure that you don’t get raped by your rabid admirers,” he says sarcastically, earning a snort from the other male. “Oh… and I’m also here to remind you that you shouldn’t go to seedy places like this because you currently have a girlfriend,” he adds as he follows his friend inside and frowns as his dislike for the place grows.
“You know that Hikari won’t mind.”
“Hikari? Who’s Hikari? I thought you were dating Megumi?” the blue-eyed guy asks, clearly puzzled.
“Oh, yeah… Her. Well, she won’t mind,” the raven-haired male says dismissively.
“Natsume,” the blue-eyed boy says in a reprimanding tone “You’re impossible. You couldn’t even remember the name of your current girlfriend. And knowing you, you probably don’t even remember any of the names of your past girlfriends as well. But then again, what can I expect? Even I wouldn’t be able to remember any of my girlfriends’ names if I happen to have a new one every single week.”
“Stop comparing me with you, Ruka. We both know that when it comes to relationships, we’re very different because unlike you, I cannot simply tie myself down to a single woman. I need a frequent change. There are billions of them anyway so it feels like it’s a waste not to do so. Besides, if you stick with one of them for too long, they become too proud, boring and clingy so you can’t really blame me if I want to rid myself of pests and get myself something more entertaining,” Natsume utters as he scans his surroundings in order to look out for a new source of his ‘entertainment’.
“Just listen to yourself. There’s clearly something wrong with how you perceive women. You talk about them as if they’re just mere playthings. What’s worse is that you have a sister. Shouldn’t you learn to understand and respect them more? I-”
“Oh Hyuuga-san! Nogi-san!” a long-haired man in his early twenties suddenly approaches them with a wide grin. “It’s a pleasure to have you back here.”
“Ah… Tonouchi-san, er… good evening to you too.” Ruka returns the jovial greeting out of mere politeness as his companion continues to survey the area, seemingly oblivious to the other person that had arrived.
“So… Do you have anyone in mind for tonight?”
As an answer to his question, Ruka adjusts his collar uncomfortably while Natsume continues to ignore the older man. Tono (Akira Tonouchi) notices the evasion to his question and his grin falters a little.
“So no one?” he says a bit disappointedly but he quickly regains his enthusiasm and ushers the duo to their usual table. “Well, that doesn’t matter. Just wait here and I’ll have all the beautiful ladies line up for you in an instant. I’m sure that-”
“I want her,” Natsume speaks all of a sudden, effectively cutting off the manager’s rant. As he says this, his eyes sparkle a little and a small mischievous smirk graces his formerly bored expression.
With that, the two other males with him instantly whip their heads to the direction of his heated gaze. Their eyes fall upon a bored-looking brunette sitting by the counter, surrounded by two older women. They both frown as they take on the appearance of the young lady.
“Eh… Are you sure?” Tono asks uneasily after a pause “Mikan just came in today. She’s extremely inexperienced. Why don’t you choose someone else? I’m sure that the other girls will also fascinate you. Why don’t I introduce you to-”
“I want her,” Natsume repeats.
“Are you really sure?”
Natsume glares at him in reply.
“Fine,” Tono says with a resigned sigh. “I’ll go and get her.” He then walks off to get the brunette.

AUTHOR’S NOTES:
So how was it? Man, I’m sleepy… I hope you see the change in my writing style.
Anyway, I intentionally made this chapter short. I can make the next chapter longer though. But that is only if I receive a good amount of reviews. And no. 4 reviews are not enough. I actually think that receiving only 4 reviews is pathetic. However, if you still don’t want to review, then I won’t force you. You’ll just have to bear with shorter updates from now on.
[MUAHAHA! I sound bitchy. But really, please review or else Natsume will kill you! Haha. I should stop. I think that I’m weirding you guys out xD]
