Well, this is me first fan fiction. I've been a member of FanFiction.net for some time now, but I'm just now getting around to writing one of my own. The relationships in this one may end up being a little confusing, but I like the idea I have and no amount of flames will force me to change it.

Ok! The girls are all 15, the guys all 16. At least the guys were all about a year older than the girls. They're all sophomore in High School. Since I don't know how Japanese school works, I'll be defaulting to American school standards. That said, I'll be giving them plenty of nice breaks that we in the States enjoy. Also, Christmas vacation starts in two weeks. Eriol and Syaoran are still gone.

Disclaimer: I own not Cardcaptor Sakura or Cardcaptors. I believe that Clamp and Nelvana own those rights. I only own my character, which won't pop up for a while, so I won't bother to give any more details about him.

Chapter 1

"BEEEEEEEEP! BEEEEEEEEP!" her alarm clock sounded. Kero rose from her drawer to rouse his mistress. He briefly looked at her and started drowsily to her clock. "Fiery..." she mumbled, and then her alarm clock promptly exploded. She simply continued to snore softly. Kero, on the other hand, had ducked under the bed at the loud noise. Once he realized that Sakura had only blown her alarm clock into a few million small bits, he sweatdropped and flew over to her and started to shake her.

"Sakura... Sakura..." he called. He realized that he was making no progress so he broke out the megaphone. "SAKURA!!!" She kept snoring. Kero sweatdropped again, then he got an idea. He moved close to her ear and whispered, "Syaoran's here." She immediately sat straight up, accidentally knocking Kero down and hurriedly looked around. "Syaoran? Where's Syaoran!?" That's when she noticed a dazed Kero on the floor. "Oh sorry, Kero. Where's Syaoran." "How Should I know where the Chinese Gaki is? I just said that to wake you up. That sure didn't work!" he said, pointing at where he clock used to be. "Where's my clock?" "You blew it up again! That's the third time this week!" "Oh sorry." "Now, it' about 6:30 now, so..." "What? AHHH! I'm going to be late!"

She ran to get showered, dressed, and she went downstairs. "Well, you're early Kaijou." Her wonderful, caring, nice, polite brother told her. "First off, I'm not a monster. Second, it's almost sev..." she looked at a clock. A clock that only read 6:15. She quietly walked towards the stairs and took a deep breath. "KEEEEEROOOO!" she yelled upstairs. She heard his laughter, which only made her angrier. "I'm sorry Sakura, but how else am I going to get you to school on time? And if I remember correctly, you're the one who blew up your clock." He retorted. Sakura sighed, realizing that he was right. She walked over and ate her breakfast. Once she finished, she said goodbye to everyone and left for school.

Street Corner

Sakura glanced at her watch. She'd been waiting for Tomoyo for five minutes. She suddenly realized what Tomoyo must go through everyday. She chuckled to herself at that thought. She then caught sight of longhaired girl walking towards her. Sakura waved.

Tomoyo stopped dead in her tracks upon seeing her. She dropped her jaw, and her books. Once she was finished picking both off the ground, she ran over to Sakura with a worried expression on her face.

"What's wrong?" Tomoyo asked, out of breath. "Did something happen?"

Sakura only gave her a confused look. "No... What makes you think that?" Seeing Tomoyo's disbelieving face, she said, "no, really! I'm good, almost dandy! You?" She was a bit nervous at this point.

"Sakura, you are never early. Something must have happened." "No really! I just accidentally blew up an alarm clock that Kero set half an hour early. That baka..." "You blew up your alarm clock again?!" "yeah, so what?" "That's the third time this week! And it's only Wednesday!" "The whole world's against me now." she mumbled playfully.

The two then walked to school. Mr. Terada had a similar reaction as Tomoyo when he saw Sakura walk in ten minutes before the bell. In fact, he almost collapsed. Once she noticed that the entire class had been gawking at her early presence, she turned to them.

"I'm early! Deal with it!" She then sighed as she took her seat. A few minutes later, the bell rang.

"Ohayo gozaimasu (formal good morning) minna-san." "Ohayo Sensei!" The class said in unison. Tareda smiled. It'd only taken him 5 years to get all of them to do it right. "Well, class, this is a very special morning. We have two new students today from China and England." he said, getting Sakura's attention. "Greet Hiiragizawa Eriol and Li Syaoran." Hearing the last name, Sakura nearly fell out of her chair in shock. no, correction, she did fall out of her chair in shock. She then jumped up and ran into Li's arms. Tomoyo politely waited for Sakura to finish falling and getting up before following her. Except, she jumped into Eriol's arms.

Somewhere in Tokyo, Touya stood up suddenly from the couch that he and Yukito were sitting on. Yuki gave him a questioning look. "Something just happened, and I don't think that I like it..." Touya mumbled before sitting back down. They both finished watching Sailor Moon.

Tareda-san chuckled and excused them into the hall to get re- acquainted. He then announced something else. "Luckily class, our third exchange student will be delayed until Friday. And since I would prefer not to have him enter in the middle of out most difficult chapter in Math, I'm not going to press on until Monday." The entire class, especially Sakura, sighed and happiness and made plans to thank this new student on Friday. And since we won't be pressing on, and since we're missing four students, you may have then next twenty minutes free as long as you keep the volume down." (I made Tareda-san a really nice guy, didn't I?)

Out in the hall, Syaoran, Sakura, Eriol, and Tomoyo were busy catching up. Syaoran explained that he couldn't call or write Sakura because of the Elders, and Sakura naturally accepted his apology. She also told him the story about the alarm clock, which sent both boys into fits of laughter while Sakura sweatdropped. Eriol called Li "his cute little descendant" a few times to make for the years that they've been out of communication. Li threatened and glared at Eriol. Once their twenty minutes were up, Tareda-san called them back in. They then made plans to meet at Tomoyo's that weekend. Sakura suggested that they invite the new kid since he got them out of math for the rest of the week. They all agreed, as long as he seemed respectable (Syaoran's condition, no doubt) and took their seats.

Lunch

Sakura and Syaoran were both in her favorite Sakura Tree eating lunch. It had been oddly warm for the beginning of winter, so they only had on light jackets. Unbeknownst to them, Tomoyo had excused herself early so that she could stake out the tree from a high limb with her camera. As Sakura and Li were talking, she suddenly swung down, hanging from her legs, and shoved the camera in Li's face.

"KONNICHIWA!" she yelled at him. "Ahhhh!" Syaoran yelped as he fell out of the tree. He just happened to land in the arms of the reincarnation of Clow Reed that we all know and love. "How nice of you to drop in, my cute little descendant." Eriol said with that odd smile on his face. Syaoran only stared at him in horror, then he got an idea.

While no one was looking, he leaned up and kissed Eriol on the cheek (don't worry, he isn't that way, I'm just painting a funny picture for all the kiddies). He then flipped out of his hold and jumped back into the tree. Eriol had a really confused look on his face, and stood there for about three minutes before Tomoyo got worried.

"Eriol, what's wrong?" "S-s-s-Syaoran... kissed me on the cheek..." he stuttered out, still confused. "What!? No! You hentai! I'd never kiss you!" Syaoran yelled at him with a grimace of disgust on his face. "Eriol, you must have imagined it! Hey, I wonder who he thinks about other than Daidouji-san?" he remarked.

Eriol went pale and Tomoyo went pink enough for the both of them.

Sakura finally stepped in, "Let's just all forget this ever happened, okay?"

"Agreed" they all stated in unison.

"Riiiiing!"

After school

The gang was walking home and was approaching the separation point (the place where they have to divide up to go their separate ways home).

"You guys want to come to my house?" Sakura invited. Seeing Li's hesitant expression, she remarked, "Touya won't be there."

"I'm in!" squealed Tomoyo. After recovering his hearing, Eriol expressed a similar sentiment. "Sure thing. I'll have another chance to argue with the stuffed animal." Syaoran said. "Sweet!" Sakura said, getting odd looks from the guys. "What!?"

Kinomoto Household

Tomoyo and Eriol walked in ahead of the other couple and took places on the sofa. Hearing the entrance, and feeling his mistress's aura, Kero lazily flies downstairs after losing twelve straight times in his new video game. He then spotted Syaoran, holding hands with Sakura, walk in.

"GAAAAAKIIII!" He yelled and he pushed him away from Sakura. "Stuffed animal! Go away and Shut up!" He yelled back angrily. "Oh yeah, and who's going to make me?" "I know exactly how to shut you up!" "Oh yeah, how?" "Like this!" "..."

Kero was in shock from what the Gaki just did. He had reached into his bag and handed him a six-pack of Fudge Swirl pudding packs. Kero's eyes were watering from joy. He cried as he rushed in and hugged Syaoran. "Thank you! I promise that I'll be nice for the rest of the week!" Sakura was stunned, as were Tomoyo and Eriol. Kero flew into the kitchen to devour a few puddings. "Excuse me but, huh?" Eriol asked. "It worked, didn't it?" Syaoran said, laughing inside from his hopelessly lost expression.

Later that evening

The gang had talked, laughed, and done their homework together. It was getting a little late and Sonomi had already called Tomoyo, asking her to come home. They were all saying their goodbyes.

"Bye Syaoran-kun" Sakura said, and gave him a kiss on the cheek. Tomoyo saw this and got a little competitive. "Goodnight Eriol" she said just before she kissed him on the lips. Sakura wanted to outdo her friend, but Li was in a hurry to get home with it so late. Her three friends left, taking the limo that Tomoyo had called for. She glanced at the thermometer outside. "Brrrr, only 5 degrees centigrade out there (about 35-40 degrees F). It's supposed to get down to -2 C tonight." she commented to herself as she bumped the heat up a few extra degrees. She then headed up to her room. On the way, she passed a very fat, very passed out Kero with three empty puddings surrounding him. She chuckled at the sight. She picked him up gently and carried him up to her room. She put him in her drawer and grabbed one of her spare alarm clocks. She made a mental note to get more, seeing as how she was down to two spares. She set it, climbed in bed, and fell into a deep sleep.



Fin Chapter one

How do you guys like it? I personally like it myself. I may end up adding or editing a few parts later, but this'll do for now. I apologize for the short, fluffy chapter. But it was all necessary to set up for the next chapter. Some real action will start soon enough. Until next chapter, sayonara!
