Days after returning to the academy, Ruka joins everyone shopping for Christmas at Central Town. He also helps arrange a late birthday party for Natsume. He gives Natsume a sand clock, saying "If only we could turn back time", which makes Natsume choose Ruka's gift as one of his favorites. During the prepartations for the Christmas party, Ruka runs into Piyo decorating the Christmas tree and helps him.
During the party, Ruka blushes as he sees Mikan dressed up nicely. He offers to help Mikan with the cleanup, due to a deal made with Bear if it played with Youichi, but she insists she can do it alone. Ruka and Youichi go on the balcony to thank Mikan for her hhradwork. After Yo-chan kisses Mikan as a sign of thanks for giving him Bear to play with Ruka kisses her other cheek as another thank you. [2] This causes Mikan to be in shock and avoid Ruka, who is teased for daring to kiss her by Hotaru. He gets Mikan and Natsume to dance with each other since they didn't at the festival. He was surprised that Mikan and Natsume accidently kissed, but Natsume prevents him from asking him if they did kiss. Later on, this is cleared up during the Big Clean up Day chapter. Awkwardly Ruka, Mikan, and Natsume are grouped together to clean up the hallways by Jinno. Suddenly, the lights go out, which results in the situation being more uncomfortable. He and Natsume both notice that Mikan is scared, and to comfort her, they both at the same time hold on to Mikan's hands (Ruka holding Mikan's right and Natsume holding Mikan's left). Ruka and Natsume each wear a serious face as they compete over Mikan who is oblivious to the whole thing. A few moments later he and Natsume burst into laughter about what they are doing while insulting each other in a almost friendly manner.
