Chapter 1: Can't Stand You

"What do you guys see in him, anyways?"
Daidouji Tomoyo rolled her eyes for what seemed like the millionth time. She shot her best friend an annoyed glance, but alas the girl couldn't seem to take a hint.
"I mean, he's not even that good-looking. And he's probably not that smart either... You think he cheats on tes-"
"Sakura!"
She stopped talking. "What's wrong with you Tomoyo?" Tomoyo glared at Kinomoto Sakura, her not-so attentive best friend. Calming herself down, her gaze softened and she shook her head, "You're obssesed with him." Sakura looked appalled. "Never!"
Tomoyo sighed in response, as their other companion Mihara Chiharu responded to Sakura's statement, "You've got to be kidding me! Sakura, he's all you talk about!" Sakura pouted and stuck her tongue out at her friends.
"I am not obssesed with Li Syaoran!" she cried.
"Did you say my name, Kinomoto?" Sakura's heart froze and her voice was caught. She slowly looked up, fear clearly written in her emerald orbs as she met his amber gaze. He was grinning at her with his perfect teeth. Li Syaoran...
"No, I didn't say your name." She stared back, as if testing his intentions. He kept his gaze nice and focused.
Sakura watched as he looked her over. Her long auburn hair was down, cascading onto her delicate shoulders. Her bangs fell softly onto her forehead, occasionally falling into her eyes. Her lips were a rosy shade of pink and her cheeks had a touch of pale rose-colored blush that made her look calm and serene. But what he couldn't get over were those emerald eyes of hers; they were completely mystifying. It felt as though you would drown in them if you stared for too long.
She wore the school uniform, but being as popular as she was, she wore the skirt much higher than some of the other female students.
She wasn't a slut, not even close. To all of her peers, she was absolute perfection. Everyone wanted to be like her. Even once, she began to wear her hair up into a high ponytail with ribbons. Soon enough, all the girls began to wear their hair in the exact same manner.
Sakura was a role model to them; perfect grades, perfect looks, high social status, tons of friends, admiration of her peers, and a hot boyfriend.
Unfortunately for her, he was best friends with Syaoran, so she had to endure his presence for her boyfriend's sake; her boyfriend Hiiragizawa Eriol.
Eriol was a kind and calm individual who prided himself on his composure. He had navy blue hair and matching eyes; he wore glasses, but he wasn't a nerd. Adored by all, Eriol was the mysterious guy that Sakura had managed to unravel. To her, he was the perfect boyfriend and before Syaoran's arrival to their high school, he was the most popular guy. Even so, he didn't mind passing the spotlight to Syaoran. They were best friends after all.
Like Sakura, Eriol didn't really care much for popularity. The fact that everyone looked up to them was just that. A fact. They didn't push themselves to incredible limits to be admired. They were just born to be popular, no questions asked. It was the same for everyone in their clique: Tomoyo, Chiharu, Yamazaki Takashi, Sasaki Rika, and the new and improved Yanagisawa Naoko.
Naoko wouldn't be in their group if she hadn't gone away for a summer with Sakura's family, and returned a gorgeous diva. Before, she'd been a quiet bookworm with short hair and glasses. Thanks to Sakura, she now had eye contacts, beautiful hair extensions and a bubbly personality. She was so thankful to her friend.
'It's no wonder Eriol loves her...' Syaoran snapped out of his reverie and noticed Sakura's amused grin.
"You can't help but stare Li?" she asked teasingly. Her emerald eyes twinkled with mischief. 'Damn! I thought I had the upper hand here!' Sakura stood from her seat and got close to Syaoran, who much to his dismay, began to blush furiously. "Am I that beautiful?" She whispered the words near his neck and he shuddered unvoluntarily.
"Sakura, if you're gonna cheat on me, don't do it in front of me." Sakura immediately recognized the cool voice and spun around. Eriol stood there, grinning like an idiot. "I mean, at school? Come on, get original!" Sakura laughed and threw her arms around him in a tight hug. He hugged her back, smiling down at her. Standing on her tiptoes, she gave him a quick kiss on the lips.
Hearing the digusted groans behind her, she giggled and pulled away. Eriol smirked and led her back to her seat. "Now what were you guys fighting over this time?" Tomoyo decided to answer, "Sakura is obssesed and Syaoran can't get enough." Chiharu burst out laughing and Sakura blushed. "I am NOT obssesed!"
Everyone in the class laughed, obviously interested in the popular clique's conversation. "Tomoyo, don't spread lies!" Sakura said, rolling her eyes. Syaoran put his books down onto the desk beside her. "I think I agree with Tomoyo-san. I think you are obssesed." he said. Eriol feigned surprise, "Sakura, how could you?" Once again, the room was filled with laughter, and this time Sakura couldn't help but laugh also.
Just then, the bell rang and everyone took their seat, preparing theirselves for a long history period...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
History was the best class ever... If you were deaf.
Syaoran arose from his seat as soon as the bell rang. Shoving his books into his backpack, he waited for Eriol to finish cuddling with Sakura.
They whispered little words to each other and sneaked kisses when they thought no one was looking. But for some odd reason, he felt uneasy seeing them together. Not only because seeing your best friend make out with his girlfriend is quite unsettling on its own, but because it didn't seem right. They didn't seem right...
"Syaoran! Let's go!" For the second time, Syaoran was brought back to reality by his friends.
He joined them by the door, and they all headed out to the courtyard for lunch. As usual, Chiharu had cooked up something delicious for all of them to eat. When they reached their usual spot, Tomoyo and Rika, who had joined them on their way, spread out a huge blanket under a sakura tree.
Once they were all settled, they began to eat and talk about pointless things.
"So, last Thursday, me, Tomoyo and Naoko drove all the way to Tokyo to see Hamasaki Ayumi's concert. It was so totally worth it!" Sakura said, after swallowing some natto. Eriol seemed midly interested, but decided to start up a conversation with Syaoran instead.
"You into any girls lately?" he asked, a smile plastered on his face. Syaoran chuckled softly and shook his head, "Nah, not really." Eriol laughed at this. "Syaoran, you have the whole female student body at your mercy. Don't tell me that you don't like at least one of them."
"You know what, Eriol? How about we don't talk about this?" Eriol laughed again, knowing that this conversation was far from over. "Alright, then."
Syaoran nodded absentmindly, listening to Sakura's story. "So, then she sang 'Carols' and she wore the nicest white dress I've ever seen!" Tomoyo nodded in agreement, "It was awesome."
Eriol watched his best friend watch his girlfriend and smiled to himself. 'He's fallen.' He shook his head in silent mockery and continued to listen to his girlfriend's story, knowing that something would soon develop between both of them. He felt a slight twinge in his heart, but knew it was for the best. Syaoran deserved a nice girl, but why did that nice girl have to be his girlfriend? 'No matter. Even if this royally sucks, I'll get them together.'
'Now if only they could stop hating each other...'
"Eriol-kun?" Tomoyo asked him. He blushed and looked into her lovely violet eyes. "Y-Yeah?" She chuckled, "Just checking if you were still on this planet." He gulped and smiled at her.
'And if only Tomoyo wasn't so beautiful...'
