Card Captor Sakura: Dance With Me
Disclaimer: Dream…as long as you know it's not impossible to make it all reality…
Real Disclaimer: I don't own Card Captor Sakura, or related characters. The lucky folks at CLAMP do, though. The only thing I own is the basic plot of this story.
If I owned Card Captor Sakura, Li and Sakura would've confessed early on in the show *not too early though*, Eli and Madison would've hooked up already, Yue would be mine … all mine! Mwa ha! And um, I'd make some cameo appearances. Ha! Just kidding! XD
On with the ficcie…
Chapter One: The Unexpected Arrival
Sakura Avalon's large hazel eyes blinked in curiosity, as her best friend, Madison Taylor, talked to her on the bus ride to Readington Elementary School.
"The tradition is the guys asking the girls," Madison stated the obvious, "but for this dance, the girls have to ask the guys!" she smiled at Sakura's cringing. "Don't worry Sakura – you're a brave girl. Besides, it's just a boy!"
Sakura lowered down uncomfortably in her seat. "Yeah, I guess…" she mumbled, nervously picking at the brown fabric the bus seats were made of.
Li Showron sat behind Madison and Sakura, and was busily chatting with his rival, Eli.
"So, I'm assuming you know about the upcoming dance," Eli said intelligently.
Li frowned at him, and then nodded.
"I'm so relieved the girls are asking us this time," he said with a sweat drop of relief.
Li shrugged. "Yeah, I guess I am too."
"So anyone you plan to go with?" Eli said, peering at Li threw his glasses.
Li wasn't a huge fan of Eli in the first place, but he felt very embarrassed as he almost fell off his cushioned seat when he asked whom he was going with.
"N-not s-specifically," he stuttered, blushing.
Eli laughed. "Me neither, actually," he chuckled, eyeing Madison secretly.
Li noticed and lifted the conversation up. "Oh really?" he slyly asked.
Eli nodded. "Yep."
"If you insist," he let it go. Secretly, he knew Eli was going to take Madison, or at least, hoped to.
The bus came to a stop, and all of the children gathered their items together as they boarded off of the school bus.
Once inside, everyone took his or her seat. Their teacher, Miss Mackenzie, waited patiently in front of the classroom for the chit-chat to die down, finally everyone stopped talking and Miss Mackenzie started the lesson.
Sakura was filled with mixed emotions. Since when was a silly boy such a big deal? Half of her was very nervous to ask someone, when the other half as urging her to do it.
"Sakura," Miss Mackenzie prompted her. This interrupted her thoughts.
"Nice drawings," Miss Mackenzie eyed Sakura's sketches of boys that she had been drawing while deep in thought. Sakura blushed an amazing shade of red. "But please listen. You have plenty more time to draw. Later," she said, while patting Sakura gently on the shoulder and walking to the head of the class.
Sakura could feel everyone's eyes on her. She sunk down in her seat, blushing and hating all of the attention.
"So when you're doing Algebra, you have to do the same equation on both sides. How would you find x – 3 = 27? We already know 30 – 3 is 27, so x would be 30, or at least we SHOULD know that, but if we didn't, how would we figure it out?" Miss Mackenzie inquired.
Madison rose her hand. "You would simply go x – 3 +3 = 27 + 3 so the 3's would cancel each other out on the one side. The equation would look like this," she rose from her seat and walked to the board.
"X – 3 = 27
X – 3 + 3 = 27 + 3
X = 30."
She wrote on the board. "That is correct," Miss Mackenzie smiled.
Madison smiled warmly before returning to her seat.
"Where did you learn that?" Sakura whispered.
"In class, when you were daydreaming," Madison whispered back. Sakura face faulted.
~~
Sakura shielded the bright sun from her eyes as she sat comfortably under the big shady tree with Madison.
"So, who are you asking to the dance?" Sakura broke the silence.
Madison frowned. "Actually I haven't given it much thought," she finally said.
"Yeah, me neither," Sakura lied.
"I might ask a certain someone though," Madison smiled her signature smile.
"Oh really?" Sakura asked slyly. "And who might that be?"
"You'll see, Sakura," Madison grinned.
Sakura sighed before laying down on the soft freshly cut grass. "I pretty much have no idea. I guess I'll go alone," Sakura thought aloud.
Madison frowned. "Alone? Sakura Avalon? No way!" Sakura smirked. "What about Li?" Madison asked her.
"Li?" Sakura sat straight up. "I don't know," she felt her cheeks grow warm, as she blushed a brilliant shade of crimson.
Madison smiled at her reaction. "I think you two would have a great time together!" she laughed.
"Well maybe. I'll think about it," she truthfully considered, before getting up, and pushing a strand of her beautiful brown hair out of her face. "We better get going back inside," she advised.
"Yeah, I guess you're right," Madison nodded while getting up.
When they got back inside with the rest of the class, Miss Mackenzie cleared her throat. "Class," she instructed. "I have been informed that an old student is returning back here, today, at Readington Elementary!"
The children gasped and excited chatter arose. "He or she should be arriving very soon," Miss Mackenzie smiled.
Sakura turned to Li who sat behind her. "Who do you think the person is?" Sakura asked Li.
Li shrugged. "I don't know," he thought about it, and was interrupted as a familiar figure approached the door.
"Hi everyone!" an all-too-familiar voice greeted cheerfully.
"Here they are now! Welcome back!" Miss Mackenzie smiled.
