Chapter 1: The Beginning

--------------------------.

Laughter filled the air as students all over the beach played in laughter and fun. Volleyballs flew over the sun over nets, girls and boys ran on the sand, and others swam in the ocean. Over to the side, Sakura and Tomoyo sat beside their sandcastle, Tomoyo with her camera in tow.

"Everyone sure is having fun," Sakura commented with a smile.

"Yep, even Li," Tomoyo laughed and aimed her camera in the direction of the waters.

Over in the waters, Li, Syaoran weighed under girls that threatened to pull him under.

"Oh, Syaoran, you're so cute!!"

"Oh, isn't Syaoran simply cute?!!"

Li wiggled under the pressure of the girls.

"That's Li to you--" Syaoran replied before crashing into the waters, the mountain of girls still on top.

Over back on the sand, Sakura and Tomoyo sweat-dropped.

"Oi!! Sakura! Tomoyo! Come play volleyball with us!!" Naoko cried from over the distance.

Sakura and Tomoyo looked at each other and smiled before unanimously waving back and running over to their friends.

------------------------------------

As Sakura, Tomoyo, and the rest of their class boarded the bus, Sakura and Tomoyo laughed together among the bustling of the rest of the class.

"Boy, that was fun!" Sakura laughed.

"A-hem," Tomoyo replied.

Over behind them, Syaoran, Yamazaki, and a group of boys stood ready to get on the bus as well.

"That was a blast!!"

"Yeah, I can't believe Syaoran managed to slam that many shoots!"

"Tell me about it!"

The boys nudged Syaoran.

Syaoran shrugged in embarrassment. "It was nothing."

"Aw, don't be so modest."

"Yeah," one of them teased.

Syaoran only shrugged in embarrassment again, two hands at his side.

---------------------------

As the bus dropped Sakura home, and Sakura waved good-bye to her friends, a black shooting star flew above in the sky.

---------------------------

The next morning, Sakura skated to school while cherishing the beauty of the morning cherry blossoms, the light petals falling graciously all around her. She twirled about in the light before rushing to school.

"KINOMOTO SAKURA!!!!!!!!"

Bitds flew out of the trees of 12-1 as Ms. Shinomi screamed at her almost, if not always late student.

"I'm sorry Ms. Shinomi, it won't happen again, I promise," Sakura bowed in apology and ran to her desk, paper flying all about her and an angry teacher behind.

The class sweat dropped as a few minutes of class was wasted in their teachers tantrum.

At the back, Syaoran looked up and tilted his head to watch the scene.

----------------------------

Outside the school yard in the trees where a couple stand together busy even as the bell has already rung, a black shadow crawled behind and descended upon the female counterpart. A couple of minutes passed, and resounding slap echoed through the leaves in what was once a blissful passion.

Back up in 12-1, Syaoran looked up from his desk before indulging once again in his Japanese work.
