"Hey Sakura, deadline for the school's newsletter is in two weeks time. You got any ideas for any article?" Tomoyo, a girl with savvy slate grey hair stood in front of Sakura.

Sakura took out her lunch bag, and shut her locker. She sighed at her best friend. "I've been racking my brains. No inspirations." Her auburn hair fell right above her shoulders, her emerald green eyes looked troubled.

"Sakura.!!"

Sakura turned around, facing Meiling, one of her good friends. She got a shock. Meiling's eyes were swollen and puffy, her black shiny long hair all ruffled. "He.he.dumped me." She choked out, sobbing hysterically. She crumpled onto the floor, leaning against Sakura's cold metal locker.

Tomoyo and Sakura gasped. They both knew that Syaoran was Meiling's greatest crush, and to be going out with him, was the-dream-come-true for Meiling. They kneeled down, patting Meiling's back.

"What happened?" Sakura asked gently.

"He.suddenly said that it was time for us to let go." Meiling sobbed. "Didn't.even.say.why." She said, through gulps of air. "We.only.dated.for.3 days."

Sakura and Tomoyo exchanged glances at each other. Syaoran was known throughout the school as the flirt, a guy who dumps girls after being bored with them.

"Calm down Meiling," Tomoyo supported Meiling's back, balancing her. "Come on, get up, tell us what went wrong."

Sakura and Tomoyo lifted Meiling up from the floor. Streams of students were starting to file out of classrooms as the bell rang. "We had better go to the canteen.getting too crowded here." Muttered Sakura, and the three friends swam through the flood, heading for the canteen.

===============================================

The aroma of baked food wafted through the air, the buzzing of conversations filled the canteen.

Tomoyo and Sakura and chosen a secluded table at the corner of the canteen, away from the crowds.

"Here, dry your tears." Tomoyo offered a tissue to Meiling, who was sitting opposite of the table.

Meiling dapped the tissue at her puffy orange eyes, gabbling, "I didn't know what happened...I agreed with whatever he said, called him up frequently to chat, popped up wherever he was, and I.I.told him I loved him!" She bawled out. "The next thing I knew, he dumped me!"

Sakura and Tomoyo nervously glanced at each other, while consoling Meiling.

Sakura banged her fist upon the plastic table top. "What a flirt! He treats girls like toys.bored of them, throws them away. Someday, I'm going to teach him a lesson." Suddenly, a sparkle lit up in her green pools. "Hey guys.I've got an awesome idea." a glint of excitement danced in her green orbs. "Why don't I write a column in next month's newsletter in the girls' area about how to lose a guy in 10 ways just for Meiling! The girls just have to do the opposite on what I write, and I can test them out on a guy.I just need one as a guinea pig." Sakura said happily, with Meiling and Tomoyo gaping at her.

"Well, Sakura, that.sounds like a great idea!" Tomoyo broke the silence. "What do you think, Meiling?"

"Yeah Sakura! You'll do that for me?" Meiling said sweetly. "Thank you! You're the greatest friend ever!" "Come on, we had better get going, Class's gonna start." Sakura said, a smile fixed on her pretty face. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Hey Syao! Where did that pretty black haired girl go? You were dating her the last few days." Takashi enquired, sinking a bite into his burger. Syaoran, Takashi and Eriol were seated together in the canteen.

Syaoran lay back in his chair, running his hand through his soft chestnut hair. "She wasn't that great after all. Got tired of her." He said coolly.

"Syao, you can't even keep a girl for 1 week. Look at Tomoyo and me! We're getting along great. She's such a wonderful girl." Eriol trailed off, his blue eyes scanning the canteen through his spectacles for his girlfriend. He spotted her. He turned back at Syaoran, satisfied. "When are you going to get a steady one?

"I've got loads of choices. Just taking my time." Syaoran rested his palms on his head, showing his arm muscles.

Eriol shook his head despondently, navy hair falling over his face. "I bet with you Syaoran, you can't even keep a girl for 2 weeks."

"Of course I can." Syaoran said mockingly. "Wanna bet? I can keep a girl as long as I like."

Takashi's grey head shot up from his burger. "I challenge you!" He said gleefully, showing bits of bread in his mouth.

"Chew your food before you eat, Takashi!" Eriol chastised, looking disgusted at the small pieces of vegetables sticking out of his teeth. "So Syaoran," Said Eriol, going back to the subject, "I bet with you a hundred dollars and three kowtows that you can't keep a girl for two weeks. Deal?"

Syaoran smirked, his fiery amber eyes flaring. "That'll be too easy Eriol, why don't I let you choose the girl."

===================================================== Syaoran strolled calmly towards an auburn haired girl, the one that Eriol chose. According from him, she was the toughest the girl to catch. Hadn't gone out with a boy for quite a long time.

"Hey there."

Sakura spun around, upon hearing a soothing male voice. She found herself facing Li Syaoran. His chestnut hair was messy, he wore a jacket and khaki pants, but it was his flaming amber eyes that captivated her the most. Sakura had to admit that Syaoran was gorgeous. Suddenly, she felt a tug at her arm. It was Meiling. Sakura broke out of her trance, blushing. IWhat am I doing? Falling for the guy that Meiling just cried over with?/I

"What's your name?" He said, grinning.

"Sakura."

Syaoran stared at Sakura. She was very pretty, her deep emerald green eyes enticing him, with her auburn hair adding touches to her face, making her more beautiful. She had a slim and slender figure. "That's a pretty name." He said at last, touching her porcelain chin, slightly tipping it.

Sakura stiffened at his touch. She moved away uncomfortably, the touch still lingering there.

Completely ignoring Meiling's presence, Syaoran continued, "Hey Sakura, why don't we meet after school? There's this cool place I want to show you." He smiled, brightening up that handsome face.

Suddenly, something struck Sakura. IWhy didn't I think of it before? He'll be a perfect guinea pig for my column.and a perfect revenge for Meiling! /I Loosening up, Sakura gave a dazzling smile, "Sure. See you later."

"Excellent." Syaoran walked away, smirking. This was going to be working great. He'll win the bet, get a hundred bucks, and three kowtows from Eriol.

Sakura walked towards her friends, smiling, with Meiling eyeing her warily. IThis was going to be working great. /I "Come on guys, I've got something to tell you."
