Sugar Pink: Hello everyone! I'm here today to introduce a new story! Please R/R! This chapter is still in trial mode, so if it doesn't do too well, like lack of reviews, then I'll remove it. Just a test run to see how the plot will turn out.

Summary: Sakura Kinomoto and Syaoran Li never got along since the first day they met each other way back in elementary. Now in high school, their constant bickering have only gotten worst. Due to a prank that they wanted to play on each other, the student body and the teachers evacuated the school when the fire alarm was pulled by accident. Upset about the whole thing, the principal decided to punish Syaoran and Sakura by making them do community service: taking care of little kids in the local preschool and nursery centre. Now with their hands full of little hyperactive kids, will Syaoran and Sakura possibly fall in love . . . while teaching the little kids the ABC's?

A Preschool Prank Romance

Chapter 1: My Enemy, the Prankster

It was a bright and sunny morning in the small town of Tomoeda. Birds were chirping their song of spring, and cherry blossom petals were fluttering everywhere, creating a very pink atmosphere.

"What a nice day! Too bad we have to spend it in school." A 14 years old teenager sighed. Her honey brown hair blew in the wind that was streaming in through an opened window. Her emerald eyes were glued to the beautiful sight of the cherry blossom trees.

"BOO!!" A loud voice yelled, scaring the girl out of her daydream.

"AHH!!!" The girl screamed, falling out of her chair. A voice laughed as she fell to the ground.

"You should have seen your face!" Another teen laughed. He has chestnut brown hair and warm amber eyes, which were twinkling with laughter.

The girl glared as she realized who scared the daylights out of her. "Syaoran Li, you are so dead after school!!"

"Ooh, I'm scared." The boy with amber eyes, whose name was Syaoran, said sarcastically. "Sakura Kinomoto is mad at me again."

Sakura got up from the ground, and sat back in her seat. "You are so immature!"

"Oh, that hurts, considering that it came from someone who still has stuffed animals on her bed." Syaoran smirked.

"Hey!" Sakura's cheeks turned pink. "When have you been in my room?"

"Last month when Hiishu-sensei paired us up for that English project," Syaoran replied easily.

"Oh, you mean our project that I completed all by myself? You mean our project, the one that you never even touched?" Sakura glared.

"Hey, it's not my fault that you're such a project hog." Syaoran shrugged.

"I am not a project hog! You're just a slacker!"

"Project hog!"

"Slacker!"

"Project hog!"

"Slacker!"

"Ahem!" The sensei cleared his throat loudly at the front of the room. Syaoran and Sakura quickly put a halt in their argument.

"Thank you, Mr. Li and Ms. Kinomoto." Hiishu-sensei sighed. Teenagers today, he thought. "Now, today, we'll be starting a journal. I want you to record everything that happens in your life for two months. You do not have to include . . . err . . . personal things, but everything else that's makes up a typical day of your life."

"How long does it have to be, sensei?" A girl with long purple black hair asked. Her name was Tomoyo Daijouji, Sakura's best friend.

"That's a very good question. It depends on how much you have to say, but of course, I'd expect something more than a quarter of a page. You can go out and buy your own notebooks to keep it in. Any other questions?"

The class was silent. "Good, then you can have a few minutes to chat among yourselves. Then the class wasn't so silent anymore.

"Let's go to the soda shop!" Someone cried.

"I saw this really cute notebook in Twin Bells!" Another chirped.

"Aw man, I have a curfew tonight!"

Syaoran turned around in his seat to face Sakura.

"I know it was you who stole my lunch last week and fed it to the stray cats behind the school."

"What makes you think that?" Sakura asked innocently.

"Because I hid your towel from you that day we went swimming in P.E. class and you caught a cold because you came back in that wet bathing suit--oops!" Syaoran's cheeks reddened a bit, embarrassed as if he had just said too much, which, of course, he did.

Sakura grinned. Finally admitted, eh? "I knew it was you all along who took my towel!" She huffed.

"Just like I knew that you're the one who stole my lunch!" Syaoran shot back. Then the bell rang, signalling that it's the end of the school day.

The students talked busily as they went to their lockers.

"Hi, Sakura-chan." Tomoyo said, walking up to her friend.

"Oh, hi, Tomoyo!" Sakura replied.

"What are you going to do after school today?"

"I'm going to think up a plan to get back at that Syaoran Li for scaring me in class today. I hate him." Sakura grumbled, grabbing her backpack.

"Oh, Sakura, why can't you guys just be friends?" Tomoyo suggested.

"With him? That's impossible! He's always so--hey, what's this?" Sakura reached into her bag and felt something soft . . . furry . . . CRAWLING!!!!!!!

"AAHHH!!" She hollered, jumping about a foot away from her bag.

"What is it?! What's wrong?" Tomoyo asked.

"M-my b-b-backpack!! There's s-something crawling in there!" Sakura said, pointing to her bag. Tomoyo grabbed Sakura's bag and flipped it upside down, shaking it. Something fell out. It was a,

"MOUSE!!!!!!" Sakura screamed, as the white furry creature leapt out from her bag. The poor white mouse was falling from Sakura's bag, and it looks like it was going to be the end of his life because he was heading straight for the hard floor, but then,

"Oops, I got you, buddy." Syaoran appeared, catching the mouse before it fell. The mouse squeaked, probably in fright.

Syaoran turned around and looked at Sakura, whose emerald eyes was widen with fright as well. He smirked.

"What's the matter, Sakura-chan?" He asked, putting a lot of exaggeration on the words 'Sakura-chan.'

"The mouse surprised her." Tomoyo explained.

"Oh, are we scared of an innocent little mousy?" Syaoran teased in a babyish voice.

"You! You put that thing in my bag!" Sakura said, pointing an accusing finger at him.

"Now, why would I do that?" Syaoran asked innocently. Maybe a little too innocently.

"Because you want to get back at me for taking your lunch last week and feeding it to the stray cats in the back of the school--oops!" Sakura covered her mouth, as if she had said too much, which, of course, she did.

Syaoran grinned. "Oh, I knew it was you who took my lunch."


"Just like I know it was you who put that mouse in my backpack." Sakura crossed her arms across her chest.

"Whatever you say, Sakura-chan." Syaoran smirked, walking away, with the white mouse squeaking in his palm.

"This means war, Syaoran Li!" Sakura screamed after him.

*****

"Man, you should have seen her face!" Syaoran laughed.

"Gee, wasn't that kind of mean of you?" Rei asked. Rei was Syaoran's best friend. He has jet-black hair and dark brown eyes.

"You guys haven't seen the look on her face when she stole my lunch last week." Syaoran pointed out.

"I think it was a swell prank." Eriol Hiiragazawa grinned. He's Syaoran's other best friend. He has dark midnight blue hair and azure eyes behind his glasses.

"I know." Syaoran grinned. "Anyway, she threatened to prank me back good, so we better all think of something good before she can get me back."

"What do you have in mind?" Rei asked.

"I have the perfect prank. Here's what we do . . ."

*****

"Oh, that Syaoran Li makes me so mad! I have to come up with a good prank to get him back!" Sakura promised.

"What are you going to do?" Tomoyo asked, worried that her friend might do something crazy.

"I have the perfect idea already. Here, I'll tell you. . ." Sakura grinned.
