I couldn't find any fan art for this either, only Hajime x Mikan....

Mikan wiped the tears that fell down her cheeks as she walked down the hallway quickly. She made an attempt to confess to her crush, who rejected the love that she had for him and asked if they could stay as friends. Mikan made a turn into the girl's bathroom and leaned her back against the wall, crying her eyes out as she slid down the wall. She hugged her knees and rested her head on her knees as well, closing her eyes tightly. People passed by now and then and asked her if she was okay, which she lied and said that she was okay.

After a while, Mikan got up from the bathroom floor and walked out. She reached into her apron pocket and pulled out a roll of bandages, letting out a small sigh of relief. She made her way into the classroom, grabbing a chair from any random desk and starting to drag it out of the classroom. "Where are you taking that, Tsumiki?"

"O-Oh!" Mikan dropped the chair and looked at the person who called her name. Ibuki Stood at the other side of the room, walking towards the nurse. Ibuki looked at Mikan and then looked at the chair near her feet.

"Where are you taking the chair."

"H-Hajime n-needed a chair s-so he could h-help out things up..." Mikan said, which wasn't exactly a lie. He did ask her to bring him something to hang things up, but that was after she was rejected, so she ran before he could finish.

"Oh, alright." Ibuki said, smiling at Mikan before running out the room and leaving. Mikan let out a sigh of relief as she picked the chair up again. She carried the chair, which included her tripping and falling a handful of times, and walked out of the school building. She went to a tree and put the chair under it, letting a small sigh of relief when she put it down. Mikan pulled out the roll of bandages, starting to unroll them, letting out a small grunt when she used her weak strength to tear them apart.

Mikan stepped onto the chair and tied the long bandage onto a branch, letting a sigh of relief when she was done. She looked at the noose that she had made with the materials that she had and felt proud of what she had done. She took in a deep breath and started to take a large step over the edge of the chair and then-

"Hey! Don't do it!" A voice cried out, startling the timid nurse as she let out a small scream of surprise. Mikan grasped onto the loop tightly so she wouldn't fall and closed her eyes, her breath shaky and tears that forced their way to her eyes. "Are... Are you okay...?" They asked, making Mikan open her eyes and look at the person who called her name.

"H-Hajime...?" She asked, looking at the person in front of her. She was majorly confused, because wasn't he helping put things up? Why was he here?

"Nono, I'm Makoto Naegi, from the 76th class." He said, rubbing the back of his head a bit.

"Oh..." Mikan said, looking at him while loosening her grip on the bandages.

"Here, let me help you down." Naegi said, holding a hand out. Mikan nodded a bit and slowly took his hand, taking her other hand off the loop and cautiously putting her feet on the ground.

"Th-Thank you..." Mikan said, looking at the ground a bit. Was she really about to kill herself?

"No problem, glad that I could help." He said with a small smile. "Um.. if you don't mind me asking, why were you about to kill yourself?"

"O-Oh..." Mikan said looking down a bit. She told him the whole story after that, wiping her eyes afterwards.

"Oh, I'm sorry about that..."

"I-It's fine...." Mikan said, looking back up a bit.

"I hope that things get better." Naegi said with a small smile.

Hope...

He loved that word....

"Hey Mikan!" A voice called, startling the nurse again. Mikan turned her attention to where the voice was, seeing Mahiru at the school entrance. "Ms. Yukizome needs you for something!"

"O-Okay!" Mikan said, starting to walk over to the redhead.

"Hey, I'll see you tomorrow!" Naegi said, waving at Mikan and leaving the nurse very confused. She looked at him before turning away and going back to her class.

The next day, Mikan walked to her class by herself with her things pressed against her chest. Her eyes gazed up as she saw Nagito talking to some of his friends across the hall. Mikan hurriedly put her head down and walked faster, hoping that he wouldn't see her.

"Hey, Mikan!" A voice called, making her jump slightly. She turned around to see Nagito walking towards her. "Listen... I'm sorry for what I said yesterday..."

"I-It's okay...." Mikan said with a small smile. The two were silent for a bit before Naegi went over to them and put a hand on her shoulder.

"Hey, are you okay?" He asked, looking at her while she nodded softly.

"Y-Yes..." Mikan said, giving him a small smile.

"That's good..." Naegi said, smiling at her and laughing a bit. He waved at her before going off to his own class. Mikan smiled a bit and watched him leave before going to her own.
