She's Got The Beat
By ForevernAlwayz
Summary- Sakura Kinomoto was the quiet type...until she moved to Hong Kong for college. Home of the hippest college rock bands, Hong Kong, China, is a scene. And Sakura is dying to break out of her small-town shell. So she decides to do something totally un-Sakura: learn to play the drums.
When crashing the cymbals, the girl's a wild child! Plus there's a perk to her new gig: a cute bass player. Unfortunately Mr. Bass Man isn't exactly looking for love. Can this rocker chick change his tune? Or does finding her own rhythm mean sacrificing true love?
.:.—it's like yea…
(me interrupting)
"talking"
"We all worked hard…" said Missy Hino
Her red hair was in a high ponytail and her brown eyes stared at me with hatred…
Ya wanna know why?
It's because I got valedictorian instead of that slut!
I yawned silently…
This was getting boring…
The bright sun shone down on as…
It was getting mad hot in these stupid graduation gowns.
I'm valedictorian of 2005!
I already have 10 awards.
Damn…I'm good!
As salutatorian sat down the principal got up and said a few things but I wasn't really paying attention.
Too busy playing around with my boyfriend Josh Ozawa.
He has black hair and baby blue eyes.
Everything about him was perfect…well to me he is…
He's not that smart either.
He passed because he paid the teacher.
You see me, and Josh are the richest kids in the school.
"Sakura Kinomoto is our 2005 valedictorian!" announced the principal
That's me!
Sakura Kinomoto!
As I walked up to the stage .:.releasing my boyfriend's hand which he frowned to.:. I smiled proudly.
My emerald eyes shone with happiness and the wind blew back my auburn hair from keeping it flying.
I made my speech where it made people's tears disappear.
They all laughed as I finished my speech.
I sat back down as diplomas were handed out to people.
"Josh Ozawa" said the principal
Josh smiled brightly and kissed me before going up.
My name was soon called and was handed my diploma.
I walked out of the school with 10 trophies' and a money certificate.
I got into my car.
Dad and Touya were here but they left in their own car.
I put all me trophies' right next to me.
My car was a 2006 Silver MX-MIATA.
Dad had gotten it for me on my birthday.
I raced through the streets and soon arrived home.
As I was getting out my cell phone rang.
I looked at the caller ID to see that it was Josh.
"Hey there stranger" I said
"Hey hun" he said
"What's up?" I asked him
"Party tonight at Jody's!" he said
"Don't worry. I'll be there!" I said
We hung up as I walked up to my room and chose out an outfit.
Soon it was 8:00 as I opened the door to Jody's house.
"Hey Sakura" said Jody hugging me
"Hey" I said smiling at her
She led me outside to the backyard where she had a huge pool and food lined up on rows of tables.
Josh was talking to his friends.
He waved to me as I sauntered over to him.
"Hey there hot shot" said one of his friends
"Hey whoever you are" I said dismissing them
They left us together as we began kissing each other.
Who knew someone would push us into the pool.
As we got out and started eating and dancing it was soon 10:00.
Damn…time flies when you're having fun.
As me and Jody were talking Josh comes up to me.
"Hey baby" said Josh
Jody smiled leaving us two together.
"Sakura…I love you so much" he said as he got down on one knee
I gasped.
This must be a dare.
"Sakura will you marry me?" he asked
I looked into his blue eyes.
He wasn't joking at all.
"I can't Josh" I said
"NANI?" he screamed getting up
"I can't. I need to finish college and if you were going to the same college than that would be terrific but I can't Josh. I can't leave college for marriage" I replied bravely
"Now I'm not good enough for you?" he asked furiously
He clenched his fist tightly making them turn white.
His blue eyes a blaze with fire.
"Is there another guy?" he asked angrily
"No! I need to go to college. I love you Josh but…I can't give up college" I said calmly
"You want to fly to some crappy ass college to get what kind fucking education?" he asked
"TO GET A FUCKING GOOD EDUCATION YOU BITCH!" I yelled
"And you know what Josh. Let me ask you something. What did the five fingers say to the face?" I asked him angrily
Before he could say anything I slapped him hard. (get it?)
I then punched him square in the jaw and stalked out of there without looking back.
Who the fuck did Josh think he was?
You know what?
I really don't give a damn about Josh anymore.
He can go fuck himself.
I returned home washing myself.
I cleaned my teeth and got into bed.
It was a hot night as I turned on the A.C.
NEXT DAY
I got up early packing my stuff.
I couldn't wait to go to Hong Kong, China.
I was going to a very wonderful university there.
Hong Kong Finest was about to have Sakura Kinomoto invade!
I packed some jeans, t-shirts and many more.
I don't wear dresses or skirts.
Hate them.
Despise them so I never wore one ever!
I put on a pair of jeans and a baby pink t-shirt.
I walked downstairs dragging the suitcase and wearing a pink NIKE book bag over my shoulders.
Dad and Touya were downstairs waiting for me.
Dad was sniffing as Touya stood there doing nothing.
"Well?" I asked
He sighed and took my suitcase out to the limo.
"Honey" said my dad as he engulfed me into a huge hug
"Dad…" I said weakly trying not to cry either
My father released me as we started crying.
Touya separated us.
I got into the limo as I was driven to the airport.
I arrived soon arrived at Japan International.
The driver gave my luggage to some guy.
I'm guessing for the plane.
I walked into the airport and to Gate 12.
I got on.
"Hi. Um…miss…my luggage is being put on the airplane right this moment right?" I asked the stewardess
"That is correct" she said
I was in first class as I sat down onto the awfully comfy chair.
2 hours went by with me watching movies.
After 3 hours on the plane I finally got off and onto Hong Kong land.
I took in a deep breath and started walking to retrieve my luggage.
I got my pink suitcase and hailed a taxi.
"To Hong Kong Finest please" I said in Mandarin (ok…I'm not mandarin…I'm Cantonese so I'm not sure how to write it and I don't know how to write some Cantonese words into English n I pretty much talk in English instead of Chinese) (and I made up some retarded name for college)
I soon arrived at a huge school as my mouth flew to the floor wide opened.
I paid the man and he smiled.
He sped off and it kinda looked like he was about to crash into another car.
I walked in as I saw kids reading under a tree or playing a sport or whatever!
I looked at the map they gave me when I received their congratulations letter.
I found the office as I walked there slowly admiring the scene.
I soon arrived at the office.
I wasn't paying much attention until I bumped into a girl.
"I'm sorry" I said in Japanese forgetting I was in Hong Kong
"Its okay" she said replying back in Japanese
I looked up and met incredible purple eyes.
"Hi" I said softly
She brushed some of her purple hair out of her face.
"Hi. I'm Tomoyo Daidouji." She introduced
"Hi. I'm Sakura Kinomoto" I replied
"You new?"
"Yup"
"Me
too. My boyfriend is one year older than I am and attends this
college." She said with a cheerful smile
"Cool" I replied as thoughts of Josh filled my head
ARGH! GET OUT! I'M SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OVER JOSH!
I sighed as we waited to get our info about our classes.
I walked up to the desk.
"Hi, I'm Sakura Kinomoto." I said
"Hi. Ok…." She said as she typed in my name
She handed me a print out of my classes.
"Um…when do I get my room?" I asked
"Huh? What do you mean?" she asked confused
"They said that they would give me a room." I said
"These are summer classes. Only when school starts is when they start giving out rooms" she said
I bit my lower lip.
"Hey Sakura. You can always stay where I'm staying" said Tomoyo
"Really?" I asked as I felt myself brighten up
"Yeah" said Tomoyo and she was handed her classes
We rode the bus toward a huge house…
Whoops…
As we got closer I noticed a huge mansion and a bus stop in front of it.
"Here's where I'm staying with my roommate" she said cheerfully
"Cool…I live in a mansion like this too" I said calmly
"Yea…you see…I'm kinda rich" she whispered
"Me too!" I said a bit too loudly by mistake
She pressed some numbers and the huge gate opened.
"I usually make friends but only for my money…" she said sadly
"Don't worry Tomoyo. I'm not in it for the money. I liked you since I bumped you…just for who you are!" I said warmly
"Arigatou" she said and we walked inside with me lugging my heavy ass luggage…
I seriously wanted to kick it mad hard…to Mars or something…
But I need my clothes…
Tomoyo gave me a tour.
We reached her room.
"Wow…" I said
Her room was dark purple n light purple…
It looked spectacular.
Then I noticed a purple guitar.
"You play?" I asked pointing to lovely guitar
"Yup" she said and walked over to it
She picked it up and started playing a song.
I go sooooooo lost in it.
I opened my eyes when it was done.
"That was wonderful" I said giving her a soft smile
"Thanks" she said and smiles and led me to a pink room
"It's beautiful!" I said
"I designed it" she said
"Wow…" I said
"You can stay here" said Tomoyo
I looked at her and hugged her.
"You…can…let…go…now" said Tomoyo
"I let go of her and smiled.
"Thanks" I said
"No problem" she said and left me to be alone as I started unpacking
I unpacked a few things as I started humming a tune that I made up.
I saw Tomoyo talking to a girl her height with jet black hair and ruby red eyes.
"Oh Sakura! I want you to meet someone!" she said
I walked downstairs.
"This is Meiling" said Tomoyo
"Hi" I said nicely as she studied me from head to toe starting with my emerald eyes
She then smiled.
"Hi…I don't think you're the lying type trying to steal Tomoyo's money" she said and shook my hand
"I would never!" I said
Meiling laughed.
"I always like to check out because there are many people out there making friends for money" she said
I smiled.
"Don't worry. I would never. My dad is rich himself so we have something's in common I'm sure!" I said
"I can tell" said Meiling
"Me and Meiling are going out. You wanna come along?" asked Tomoyo
"Nah…I'm going to go around town…" I said
"Okay" and Tomoyo and Meiling handed me 10 dollars
"You're going to need it" they said
"It's okay. I'm not buying anything" I said as I tried to hand back the money "I'm going to change my money into Hong Kong money later"
They waved it off.
"It's okay" they said and left me standing there dumbfounded.
I walked out the door just walking a got my attention some how.
It was on a white piece of paper with a normal looking font.
"Hey You! Wanna Have Some Fun? Well Learn To Play The Drums Today!" I read aloud to myself
I looked at the address and went to an info center and purchased a map.
The street wasn't far away as I walked there with cars passing by and honking.
I soon reached a music store and saw it was pretty old as I walked in…
