A/N: Hello all! S'been a long time since I've ever written anything. But this idea for this came up suddenly (well… not really. I've been thinking about it for quite awhile already. xD) while I was having a shower after reading a series of shōjo comics and um… :X and some H stuff too. x333 hohoho! :D but anyway. Here goes!

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THESE CHARACTERS! CLAMP DOES!

BOLD: Headings

Italic: Thoughts

Normal: Story

"BRIIIINGGGG!"

"Mmn… 5 more minutes…"

A 16 year old auburn-haired girl moaned as she bended her head to another side of the table filled with piles of manuscripts.

"BRIIIINGGGG!!"

"Alright already! I'm up!"

She whacked the alarm clock's head and rubbed her eyes, while staring at the alarm clock's time sleepily,

"OH KAMI-SAMA! I'M GOING TO BE LATE FOR SCHOOL! GAH AND THE DEADLINE! OH SHOOT!"

With that she quickly packed up her manuscripts and placed them into a file while changing into her uniform and eating a piece of bread. After tying up her ribbon, she quickly grabbed her bag and ran out the door of her small apartment after blow kissing her parent's photo.

Upon reaching school she sighed as her teacher lectured her about being late.

"Kinomoto. This is the 100th time you're late! You should try to be early sometimes… I do know you have good grades and all but do you want to talk to someone? Do you have any stress?"

Terada-sensei worriedly asked his star-student while Sakura laughed it off,

"Nahh! Sensei, no problem! Don't worry about me!"

Terada-sensei sighed and just let her off with a warning leaving Sakura happily skipping back to class.

"TOMOYO-CHAAAN~!"

Sakura grinned widely and hugged her long-raven haired friend from the back,

"Ah. Sakura-chan! Ohayo!"

Smiling, she sat down at her seat beside her and began to draw out the remaining drafts. When suddenly Tomoyo whispered,

"Ne, ne. So how's the project coming along?"

Sakura looked at Tomoyo and laughed,

"Fine fine! I'm going to complete the last chapter for the book soon."

Tomoyo grinned and jumped for joy,

"KYAH! Yay! I can't wait for the newest book to be out… I mean… Nami was about to confess to Hourai! And I definitely love the H scene you drew on Lovelove Diary! KYAAAAAH!!"

"Tomoyo-chan! Shhhh! You don't want me to be found out do you? People are glancing already!"

Sakura smiled nervously and sweatdropped at her classmates who were staring.

"EH?! Oh, come on Sakura-chan… Its so exciting! And I'm sure you won't be found out…"

Sakura bonked Tomoyo on the head and smiled,

"Just keep it low. I'm not supposed to be discovered. Seto-kun would be angry if I don't submit my drawings on time or if I get discovered."

"Hai, hai… I promise I won't say anything anymore. Geez. You really should get a boyfriend or fall in love… I mean, you're so cranky about these things but you draw tons of sweet romance stories!"

Sakura laughed,

"Nahh. There's no way I'll fall in love… The guys in the real world are too ug-... Oops. Not good-looking enough. And anyway, I prefer living in my dream rather than reality."

At that moment, Terada-sensei stepped into the classroom and placed the books on the table and Sakura quickly re-adjusted herself in her seat to face the front while she continued her drafts without anyone noticing.

"Okay class! Quiet down! Hiiragizawa! Go back to your place and stop flirting! (Hai… Hai… Sensei.) Today we're going to have a new student transferring in. He hasn't been in Japan for quite awhile. So let's warmly welcome him back."

Slowly a tall guy wearing thick-rimmed glasses and messy chocolate hair stepped in and fell down as he was walking up to the front of the class making the whole class laugh, except Sakura who was busy doodling on her drafts and didn't bother to look up.

He then slowly pushed himself up and nodded to the class, while Terada-sensei continued,

"Uh. Ahem. Okay… He's name is Li Hiro and he's been to Europe for a long time so I think I'd need someone whose fluent in English to be he's partner for today."

Syaoran nodded to the class and softly told the teacher in Japanese,

"Uh, Sensei, I can speak Japanese."

Sakura continued doodling with a happy-go-lucky grin when suddenly Terada-sensei called her and she jumped up with a shocked expression,

"KINOMOTO SAKURA! Pay attention and stop dreaming! Li will be sitting behind you got it?"

Sakura nodded and stood up as Syaoran began walking towards her. She then sat down and continued drawing without sparing a look at Syaoran which glanced at what she was doing casually before walking on.

Soon afterwards, the bell rang that signalled the end of the lesson and all the girls began crowding around Syaoran who was packing his things except for Sakura and Tomoyo who were already beginning to walk out the classroom,

"Ne, ne Hiro-kun~ Are you really from Europe?"

"Hiro-kun~! Do you want to eat lunch together?"

"Hiro-kun!~ You have the same surname as Li Syaoran! Are you related?~"

"Eh!~ Introduce us ne~?"

Then one of the girls reached out and tried to take off his glasses. And he grabbed her hand just in time then mumbled in a husky voice,

"Um. Sorry. No. And please stop calling me Hiro… Its Li."

Then he got up from his seat and walked out the door. Leaving all the girls in class in fangirl mode over his voice.

-Elsewhere near the classroom…-

"Hmmmm…. Sa-ku-ra~! What do you think about the new student?"

"Eh? Oh. Li Hiro right? Hmm. Nothing? I didn't take a good look at him… I was too busy with the drafts… I gotta finish before Seto-kun comes and ram down my brand-new door."

Tomoyo sighed and patted Sakura's head as she cried buckets.

"Do you pay any attention to your surroundings at all besides me? He is a good-looking fellow ne? All the girls are crazy over him and his voice! You should look at him and consider him ne!"

Sakura looked up from her PSP and let her one of her earphones dangle from her neck,

"Of course I pay attention to my surroundings! There's a reason I don't bang into walls no? Geez, Tomoyo-chan! He's not my type… Those popular people aren't at least. You don't see me going for Eriol-kun right? "

Tomoyo laughed,

"But Eriol is my type of guy no...? He's cute… And funny… And…"

"-Sigh- I really don't know what you see in him…"

Sakura sighed as Tomoyo ignored her and continued rambling about Eriol Hiiragizawa, their class chairman as well as their long-time childhood friend.

"And did I mention so cu-….AH! I forgot to tell Natsumi-sempai I'm not attending choir today because Okaa-san wants me to host the fashion show at Tokyo Dome. Ne, you go ahead first. I'll catch up later."

Sakura pouted but nodded and went back to her PSP and plugged on her earphones as her friend ran down the stairs.

Then she walked along the corridors towards the roof and sighed as she looked at the long flight of stairs that went up,

"Geez. Why is everything so troublesome…"

She then switched off her PSP and placed it in her pocket and ran up the stairs when suddenly…

"CRASH!"

"Ow!"

"Owwie!"

"Ah. I'm sorry… Are you alright?"

Sakura rubbed her head but nodded lightly at the voice,

"Mmmn… Yup… I think I am…"

She then looked up and emerald met with amber as the boy held his hand out to her, Sakura stared at him but got up by herself and pushed away his hand,

"Thanks but its okay… I'm fine by my own."

She then saw his glasses on the floor and knelt down to pick them up,

"Sorry for crashing into you… Here, your glasses."

She smiled and held out his glasses to him which he stared in shock at and quickly grabbed it and put it on.

"Did you see…?"

Sakura looked at him,

"See what?"

Syaoran stared at her then shook his head,

"Uh. Its nothing, nevermind. Please watch where you walk Kinomoto-san."

"Oka- Hey wait. How'd you know my name?"

Syaoran stared at her weirdly,

"I'm in your class."

Sakura made a small 'o' with her mouth and laughed nervously,

"Ah… Gomen gomen. I don't look at my surroundings much so I tend to forget things."

"Its alright."

"Well, I best be going."

Sakura smiled and waved, then walked up the stairs slowly and brushed past him. Her strawberry-like scent still lingered there as Syaoran looked in her direction and he smirked at her figure as she got further and further.

"She doesn't know I'm Li Syaoran even after seeing these eyes? Hmm… Interesting…"

MEANWHILE...

Sakura began tearing open the packet of bread and hungrily munched into it as she lied down on the rooftop floor,

"Hmm… Come to think about it… That Li guy looks like someone..."

Suddenly, a dark hand popped up and a cold wind blew past her ear…

"I am going to haunt…. You…"

"AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Sakura fell over and knocked her head on the wall,

"Oww… Eriol! Please do not do such dangerous things!"

Eriol sat down beside her and laughed,

"Aww… Don't be such a spoilsport Sa-ku-ra. I always did this when we were small and you would run away crying!"

Sakura growled at him with a crying puppy-dog face and continued eating her bread and ignored him.

"Now, now… No need to be scared… It was just a joke!"

Sakura pouted and looked away as Eriol fake cried,

"Nuuuu~ Sakura is ignoring me… TT___TT, Moyo-chan~ Do something."

Tomoyo popped out and giggled as Eriol went to sit at a corner and grew mushrooms.

"Sakura-chan~ I'm back!"

Sakura looked towards Tomoyo with shining eyes and pounced onto her like a cat while Eriol was in shock,

"Nuuu, Sakura won't look at me!"

Tomoyo giggled and patted Sakura,

"That was an unusual sight to see you eating bread so quietly earlier. Did something happen?"

Sakura sat up as Eriol also drew closer to them.

"Well yeah. I bumped into some guy earlier. I don't know who he is but he's from our class… I think. Was is Sou-chan? He has the same coloured hair but not close enough…. Hmmm…."

Tomoyo looked at Eriol and Eriol looked at Tomoyo and whispered,

"That's strange for her to think of someone. Does she have a fever?"

Sakura ears perked up and she growled at Eriol again and sighed,

"No. I don't have a fever. But I was just thinking he's eyes were really nice…"

Tomoyo stared at Sakura,

"Same colour as Sou-kun's hair…? Caramel?"

Sakura shook her head,

"No, he's hair was… What's that colour… AH! Chocolate! Yeah! Chocolate! Yum!"

Tomoyo and Eriol laughed at Sakura's reaction to chocolate and Tomoyo replied,

"Chocolate-coloured hair… Li Hiro?"

Eriol tapped his chin and nodded,

"That's the only guy with chocolate hair and in our class!"

Suddenly Sakura ears pricked and she stopped dreaming before turning to the door while making a low growl,

"Hey. Whoever's there come out."

Tomoyo and Eriol looked at Sakura then to the door. Then that very same chocolate-haired boy stepped out with his hands in surrender as the trio looked at him,

"Sorry for eavesdropping but I heard my name being mentioned as I was coming up."

Sakura stared at his messy hair in awe as Tomoyo and Eriol welcomed him,

"Ah. Hiro! Welcome to our heaven! Sorry, our little Sakura here was talking about how she bumped into someone."

"Yes, yes. We're sorry about that, Li-san."

Tomoyo nudged Sakura to say hello and apologize, but she continued staring at his hair. Syaoran walked up in front of her and waved his hand,

"Hello?"

Suddenly, Sakura took out her mini sketchbook from her pocket and quickly sketched something as Syaoran stared at her while the rest sighed.

"DONE!"

She then showed the three what she drew, it was Syaoran's hairstyle. Syaoran stared weirdly and laughed as he pointed to the top of his head,

"You kinda missed out my antenna here."

Sakura looked at her drawing again then pouted,

"I did not! It's perfect for my new character!"

Tomoyo and Eriol stared at the familiarity between the two before suddenly realising what happened. Tomoyo nudged Sakura and whispered before Eriol quickly clamped her mouth shut with his hand before she could complete her sentence,

"Don't let him find out you'r-"

"Don't let me find out what Daidouji-san?"

Syaoran on the other hand caught her soft words and Eriol quickly laughed nervously and interjected while nudging Sakura's side,

"Nice day isn't it today?"

Sakura took a second before realising what she'd just done.

"UH. Forget you ever saw that drawing okay?"

Syaoran stared at her in the same way he did earlier and chuckled,

"And if I don't?"

Sakura stared at him and he stared back with a smile.

"You're a pretty interesting girl, Kinomoto-san. I won't forget though. Still, if you could do me a small tiny favour… I'd gladly oblige not to tell anyone your little secret... I saw what you were drawing earlier in class no?"

Sakura gulped and for some strange reason, she felt a storm was heading her way...

What a dangerous person… Kami-sama! Help me! TT___TT

A/N: Ah. I'm done O_O. I think its pretty typical… I'm trying to twist the plot though. (8 Is the storyline alright though? Is the pace too fast? It's my first comeback story in a long time! TT___TT do RxR and tell me on ways to improve!
