Grow Up Naota

From Bubblegum Wiki

Naota POV

Haruhi pinned me to the ground.

"Naota!! How old are you?!! You act like you're two years old!!! Time to stop being like a two year old!!!! Grow up, Naota!!!!"

I felt hurt inside I wanted to cry. I walked past by Mikuru.

"Are you alright Naota?"

"I'm fine Mikuru."

I had to walk out of the Brigade. I didn't know what to do. I didn't want to drop out because I didn't ask become part of the Brigade and I was brought there because I would be her replacement as Brigade leader, but her words slapped me in the face. Kyon followed me.

"Naota. Haruhi is the one who acted like a two year old. Not you."

The next day, classes were just normal as it is. The teacher called me to read the next page of the book Chin Can is Gone. I started to enter into the dream space as Haruhi from my past experience was about to tackle me.

"Mr. Naota are you okay? Do you need to see a nurse?"

"Mr. Kyon would you please escort him to the nurses office?"

We saw Miss Anzu coming by. Kyon told her everything what happened. Miss Anzu told him that dreamers can experience a traumatization of their bad memories in the dream space. Since I was the victim, Miss Anzu told him to call her if I start having these problems.

"Asahina. If Naota starts experiencing problems, please call Miss Anzu."

"Naota. Miss Anzu coming over to have dinner with us.

The students was all around thinking if I had a seizure. Miss Anzu finally got me out. The school principal sent me home, Mikuru let me stay at her apartment handing me her keys. I arrived at her apartment to rest my head trying to get my mind off my sister.

Then these bad memories of Haruhi came back as I was in the dream space. Mikuru returned from school found me looked and called Miss Anzu. She again snapped me out of it. Apparently, Mikuru and Miss Anzu advised me to take a walk and told Kyon if he inside the dream space with me. I felt horrible and sorry for myself, if I went into depression celestials would appear out of nowhere due to me being part godlike. Haruhi was right. I need to grow up. I act like a two-year old.

Miss Anzu called me that a Nephilim had possessed a bank manager. I told her not to alert Haruhi saying that I am fit to fight. Unfortunately when I arrived and attempted to trap the possessed host in the dream space, my traumatization started returning, Seto head of the Dreamers Bureau had put me off on paid leave because of my condition and alerted Haruhi. Miss Anzu promised to keep my incident classified from Haruhi. I went back to Mikuru's feeling embarrassed.

"I don't want to talk about, Mikuru. It's classified."

I tried not to yell at her.

"I'm not trying to upset you, Mikuru. i just don't feel well today."

We were watching a Spanish film called "Hermano Y Hermana Futuro." translated as "Brother and Sister Future" in Japanese subtitles about a boy who runs into the past after being dared by his mother to stop her and his father from meeting each other.

"This boy is born a time traveler.?"

Mikuru and I watched the part where his mother's past self found out that he's from the future.

"Yuichi hermano mayor(Brother Yuichi)."

I saw Mikuru thinking if she was from a distant future or born a time traveler. But I couldn't tell her, it was "classified information". We were near the end of the movie when Miss Anzu came for dinner hoping that I was alright and not going into one of those traumatizations I saw the boy trying to admit to his mother she was right. Maybe it's time for me to do the same. It ended with a useless anti-pot PSA of a man smoking pot while his dog sits there staring at him with the music playing "Showtime Paul."

Haruhi's POV

Why should I care about Naota? He still acts like a hissy fitting two-year old and that's a fact. Classes as boring and I didn't care if Naota doesn't show up for the Brigade Meeting or would help me fight the Nephlims. Miss Anzu didn't say anything. At the end of all that fighting it was


It was payday. I received my paycheck from the Dreamers Bureau which normally was used to pay off rent utility and food. I didn't care what Haruhi would do with her paycheck, probably waste it on useless stuff for the Brigade which Kyon agreed with me. I went to the cafe to get myself a drink. I saw Mikuru, Yuki, Koizumi, Kyon and Miss Anzu there. I saw Haruhi coming out of the ladies room looking really mad. I couldn't believe Kyon standing up for me



"I don't care what Naota does. He needs to grow up and stop acting like he's two."

Her words made me feel like Mikuru since we are both a perfect bond. Haruhi then sat at the booth I was sitting.

"Haruhi I need to tell you that you were right about me."

We'll this was a waste of time. Haruhi ignored me. Then she finally picked up a menu looking at the menu items

"Oh look at that. Isn't that great? oh wait, it's says for people "3 and up." I could share with my little brother but I can't because you act like a two-year old."

Haruhi is starting to tick me off. Mikuru saw me thinking what I was trying to do.

I got up from my table and didn't bother dealing with Haruhi in front of Mikuru.

Her words were hurtful I could've say I wished she wasn't my sister. But I didn't because my powers I would've erased her existence as it said "Be careful what you wish for." I went to the register to pay for my drink and tip then left to go back to Mikuru's. I however decided to pay a visit to Kyon's family. Kyon's parents were kind even his little sister, Imouto although she does look like Mikuru, thankfully she's not connected to her according to Koizumi. Kyon told them what happened, they said that I am always welcome. I looked at what Imouto was drawing, it was me and mean ol Haruhi. I appreciated her art. Then Kyon returned and Haruhi was with him, I decided to leave thanking his family and head on back to Mikuru's apartment. Why should I waste my time admiting to her that she was right about me when she was rude ignoring me giving me those hurtful words? Maybe I should've smite her to death with my shock gun.


But then I started realizing that I was acting like a two year old. I felt horrible I wanted to recreate this world were as said from the Lyric 'There ain't no good guy there ain't no bad guy' with everyone unharmed except Haruhi. But unfortunately I couldn't she still my big sister.

Haruhi's POV

Finally it was payday, My hissy fitting brat is probably spending his money on dirty things I suppose I could pay off the rent, utilities, and food. I invited the Brigade over for a drink and Naota's not invitied.

Naota's POV

We'll as usual. Classes. Then I didn't bother going to the Brigade meeting only went to see Mikuru for her keys so I can go and rest. Never heard from Miss Anzu checking on me if I'm feeling better and ready to come back. It's okay with her taking on Nephilims with Haruhi.

Kyon treated me and Mikuru to dinner.

Unfortunately he brought Haruhi along. Which apparently I couldn't stand my own sister not listening to me saying that she was right about me.

I grew a bit suspicious what Kyon and Mikuru was going to do. Going to the restroom leaving me alone with Haruhi.

The music was playing a theme from an American movie Local Hero, I wish it was playing my theme music, the one that sounded like "I'm a little teapot." making me feel like I'm in an amusement park it was called "Happy Happy Christmas by Drax."

"Hey, Naota."

"Haruhi."

"Haruhi. I was being rude at the cafe the other night."

"I want to tell you that you were right about me. I needed to grow up. I act like I'm two years old."

We'll this isn't fair for club members. When they miss days or be late they do what Haruhi says while I get a free pass.

Haruhi's POV

We'll Kyon invited me to dinner and my choice to wear was a red top, white shirt, blue leather shorts, black leggings, and four inch leather pumps that came from my bunny costume.

Mikuru was there in blue and red pumps and that little hissy fitting 2 year old brat was with her. But I couldn't help to see that there was something deep inside me. Kyon told that he and Mikuru were going to the restrooms leaving me and Naota. I feel so much guilt that I need to apologize.
