Hi! I was thinking of doing a story based on a real experience. So I decided to do this one.

'Thinking'
Chapter One: The New Girls
Some shallow people say that if you have money to buy everything you want, you have everything. Those are some of the stupidest people ever! My story is what will change anyone's mind. It started when I was three, everything was going great. I always played with my eight-year old brother but then one day…
"Big Brother!" Three-year-old Sakura squealed when she saw Touya coming into the park.
"Hey kaiju. It's time to go home." Touya said picking up his baby sister.
"Okay. Bye guys." She called back to her friends.
"Bye Kura." They all called back to her.
Both siblings reached the gate of the largest mansion in the city. Touya bent down and stuck his hand out for his sister to step on. She put one foot on and the other on one of the bars of the gate. He lifted her up so that she barely reached the dial. When she pressed then combination she called in, "Nana it's us!"
The gate swung open and both of them stepped inside before it closed. They ran up the curved driveway and reached the door. Sakura turned to knob while Touya pushed. Once they entered they heard their parent's voices coming from the family room.
Curiously they sneaked up and listened:
"I don't understand why this is such a big problem." Said their dad's voice.
"It's not that it's the very fact that you don't understand it. that's my problem." Came their mom's voice. The tow sibling looked at each other before listening again.
"What's the whole point of this?" Their father said loudly.
"You know what the point is." Their mother said in a furious whisper. "Don't be so loud the kids might hear you."
"They'll find out eventually." Their father said angrily.
"No! This is our problem! Don't bring them into this. This is between you and me." Their mother said. Touya looked at Sakura who had a confused face on and took her hand. He led her to her room but paused outside the door.
"Kura listen, don't mention what you just heard to anyone. Just forget you heard it."
"Okay. But what did it mean?" Sakura asked.
"Nothing just forget about it."
I tried to forget it. But I couldn't. I didn't know what it meant then but I started to figure out that it wasn't good. Especially when my parents started arguing more and distancing themselves from each other. I didn't like it. When they went on business trips they wouldn't come back for months. As time went by I started to get angry for not figuring it out sooner. I always thought that things would get better, but they didn't. When my brother left it just got worse.
"Please don't leave." Twelve-year-old Sakura begged.
"I have to Sakura. My college is far away from here." Touya explained looking over at his friend, Yukito, for help.
"Take me with you." Sakura cried.
Intercom: Flight 407 for Tokyo, Japan now boarding.
"No!" Sakura cried holding on harder to Touya.
"Listen, I know you're kind of dense but I'm sure you've noticed my parents acting strange, so if anything happens, call me. I'll call as soon as I can. I promise." Touya said sadly as Yukito pried Sakura off him. He let her friends grab her before they both left.
Sakura sank down to the floor crying. Her friends Matsumi and Meilin hugged her trying to comfort her.
I called. When ever something bad happened. He called me four times a week but then his calls started to stop. I tried calling him but he never picked up the phone. I started to think that he forgot about me. Now, two years later, I'm living in the wealthiest part of Japan. My family is the richest family in Japan and my friend's family is the second. Their parents are no longer alive but they try to liver life to it's fullest. One night. I got into to an argument with my parents. Not knowing what to do I ran to my friend's mansion next door.
I knocked furiously until a maid opened the door. It was Lacey, their caretaker. "My goodness, Sakura. Come in." She took me inside. I couldn't stop crying and the fact that it had been raining outside didn't help either. "Girls!" She called up the staircase. Two girls came sliding down the railing. They stopped at the bottom when they saw me.
"Oh my gosh Sakura what happened?" Matsumi said as she hugged me and led me to the living room. "Lacey could you get a blanket and some hot chocolate for Sakura?"
"Yes."
"Are you okay?" Meilin asked.
"No. My parents were arguing again and I had enough. They called for me. So when I entered they were arguing again. SO I got mad. They gave me a choice, to leave or stay. I wasn't thinking so I just yelled, 'I would rather leave than stay here.' So I'm being sent to a boarding school." Sakura cried.
"Boarding school?" They asked.
"Yeah. I don't want to leave. I want to stay here with you guys but I have one day left." Sakura cried. "I don't want to leave you guys."
"You won't have to." Matsumi said.
"What?" I asked.
"We're going with you." Meilin said.
"It's boring here anyways." They said. "Wherever you go. We'll both go."
"Thanks."
So this is where I am. On a plane to Hong Kong , China. The girls are excited. This is where they were born. They also seemed excited to come back.
Present Time
"So this is the Academy?" Sakura asked when they arrived in front of the school.
"This place looks familiar." Matsumi said.
"Yeah it does." Meilin agreed. They walked up to the office and gave their names.
"Kinomoto Sakura, Li Matsumi, and Li Meilin." The secretary read. "Is this correct?"
"Yeah." The girls replied.
"Great." The secretary said sarcastically. "Two more Li's." Meilin and Matsumi looked confused as they received their things. "You're sharing room 335 with Daidouji Tomoyo."
They walked upstairs and found room 335 with all their things already outside the door. They each grabbed their suitcases and went inside. The floor was made up of white tile, there were two cream colored couches in front of a 82 inch plasma TV and a marble table in between. There were glass and marble frames on the walls with pictures of a girl and a boy.
They heard footsteps behind them and saw a girl with waist length black/purple hair and amethyst eyes. She saw them and said, "So you are the three new girls?"
"Yeah that's us." Sakura replied.
"Future Hiiragizawa." Meilin and Matsumi teased.
"Nice to see you again, too." Tomoyo replied.
"This is Sakura." Meilin introduced. "Our best friend."
"Sakura this is Tomoyo." Matsumi said. "Our other best friend and future cousin."
"Now let's get unpacking shall we." Meilin said and they rushed to the two beds on the right.
Next Day
The four girls walked down the stairs and onto the campus grounds.
"So I see you have almost all my classes. That's good." Tomoyo observed. "First period: Science. Yeah you get to be in a stinky lab first thing in the morning."
They walked up to a four-story building. "This is the science building."
They walked inside and saw a group of girls standing in the middle of the hall. Then they heard, "Hey there's Tomoyo."
The girls moved aside to reveal three boys standing there. The one in the middle had messy chocolate brown hair and amber eyes. The one to his right had azure hair and midnight blue eyes as well as glasses. And the one on the left had brown hair and dark blue eyes.
Sakura, Meilin, and Matsumi all stood there frozen. Ten Matsumi and Meilin ran forward. Matsumi ran to the one on the right and Meilin to the one on the left. They hugged the person that they ran to and hugged them tightly. Then they switched and stepped back.
The one in the middle pretended to pout and said, "How sad Meilin, you run to your boyfriend before your cousin."
"I know Meilin." Matsumi agreed.
"And you, Matsumi act as though you never met me." He said again.
"Who are you?" They asked pretending they didn't know him then squealed. "Syao-kun!" He nodded his head before they ran and hugged him at the same time so that he stumbled back and hit the wall.
"Don't worry Syao-kun we could never forget you." They said in a baby voice.
He kissed the top of their heads and said, "And I could never forget my two most annoying cousins."
"I thought it was only Eriol." Matsumi said out loud.
"Yeah, he's number 1, though."
They stepped back and each got one of Sakura's hands and dragged her forward. "This is Sakura Kinomoto."
"That's Eriol, Tomoyo's boyfriend, Ryu, Meilin's boyfriend and Syaoran." Matsumi said and then saw both of them staring at each other. "Syao-kun we can tell that you think she's cute but damn it stop drooling."
"If he thinks you're cute I'd have to agree with him." A voice said behind them.
Matsumi turned around and saw a boy with spiky black hair that had a tint of green on top and green eyes mixed with blue.
She was staring at him dreamily until Syaoran broke the trance that he had with Sakura and stepped in front of Matsumi and said, "That's my baby cousin you're talking to Minamoto."
"I think whether or not she wishes to talk to me is her choice, Li." He said back and stepped around him. He took her hand and said. "My name is Justin Minamoto. What's yours?"
"Matsumi Li." She said softly.
"And she's not interested in a playboy like you." Eriol said angrily.
Matsumi registered the information that he said and then she said, "You're a playboy? Damn,too bad and I was starting to like you, too."
He walked over to Sakura and said the same thing then added, "Would you like to go out later?" Sakura looked over his shoulder at them and gave them a help-me look.
Syaoran walked up to him and said, "No because she's already going out with me."
"What?" He asked turning around.
"You heard me." Syaoran replied.
"Oh yeah? Prove it." Justin challenged. Sakura sighed and walked over to Syaoran. She got the back of his head with one and hand and brought him down to a kiss.
Most of the girls in Syaoran's "fan club" gasped. Eriol and Ryu grinned while Tomoyo, Meilin, and Matsumi were practically jumping up and down in excitement.
But after a while when they didn't pull away, some girls got annoyed and "coughed". They pulled away both of them blushing and happy. Justin got mad and gave Matsumi a piece of paper and walked off.
The three-minute bell rang and all of them separated to their different classrooms. When the girls arrived at their first class they had to wait outside to be called in.
"So did you kiss him enough?" Meilin asked.
"I know you two were at it for like ten minutes." Matsumi said right after.
Sakura was about to say something when they were called in. The classroom had roughly around twenty students in it when the girls started. When they entered a few whistles and calls were heard.
They gave a piece of paper to the teacher who sighed and said, "Not two more Li's. Oh well. Class settle down We have three new students here today. Kinomoto Sakura, Li Meilin, and Li Matsumi." The boys were still loud so the teacher looked over at Syaoran for help.
"One of them is going out with Ryu, the other one is taken, and the smallest one is my baby cousin so shut it all of you!" He said loudly. The class instantly got quiet.
"Don't be so mean Syao-kun." Matsumi whined. "I mean Meilin is going out with Ryu but who is Sakura going out with?" Syaoran sat down and covered his face with a book. "I thought so."
The teacher saw that everything was quiet so she spoke, "Does anyone have any questions?"
A hand shot up in the back. "Yes Mr. Minamoto?"
"Hey Matsu. Have you thought about going out with me?" Justin asked.
"Yes I have thought about it."
"So?"
"No." She said cheerfully and the class snickered.
"Alright," The teacher said. "We will be changing around a few thing in the seating order. Let's see we'll split u the little team of Mondragon and Li." She said looking at the seating chart. "Mr. Mondragon get your things and move to the table second to last. Miss Kinomoto you will be sitting next to Mr. Li." She gave her a packet and showed her to her seat.
"Hey." Sakura said when she got to her seat.
"Hi." Syaoran said back.
"Miss Li," The teacher started.
"Yes?" Both of them replied.
"Meilin." The teacher said. "You will be sitting in the next to Mr. Mondragon." She gave her an identical packet as she passed by her.
Meilin looked very happy with her new seat as she sat down and leaned sideways against Ryu.
Matsumi looked around and saw the only available seat. She mentally cried and automatically said, "It looks like there are no more seats so I'll just join another table."
"Actually one of our students left so you can have her seat. She was sitting next to Mr. Minamoto in the very back."
"You mean the one hidden in the shadows in the very corner?" Matsumi asked feeling like she was going to cry.
"Yes." The teacher said as she turned around to get her packet. When Matsumi saw that she turned around she mouthed the words, damn it!
The class laughed but stopped when the teacher turned around. The teacher gave Matsumi her packet as walked down the row like she was going to her funeral.
When she sat down she heard someone whisper in her ear, "You know they can't see what we're doing back here."
"Okay girls inside your packets are a pair of goggles, a lab book, and a lab coat. So will everyone put on their goggles and coats and take out your lab books today we will be…"
"This is going to be a long lesson." Matsumi whined.
Later
When the bell rang and the teacher dismissed them Matsumi was the first one out of there. She waited for the rest of her friends outside.
"How come we have Science 8 a.m. then Lang. Arts 8 a.m.?" Sakura asked.
"You have two lessons on Monday, two on Tuesday, two on Wednesday, and then one on Thursday. Friday we usually have events so we don't have classes and then we can do anything we want on weekends." Syaoran explained. "Hey can we talk, Sakura?"
"Sure." She replied. They were walking behind a building with everyone following then Syaoran said, "Alone."
They all turned back and then when they had waited for a couple of minutes they ran to listen.
"So that's basically it. Will you go out with me on Friday after the game?" Came Syaoran's voice.
"Okay." They heard Sakura's shy reply.
They heard them walking back to they scrambled back. They saw that both of them came out looking happier. "You heard didn't you?" Syaoran asked.
"Uh…"
"I'm a Li too remember?" Syaoran said.
"This sucks." Matsumi whined. "Everyone's paired up but me!"
"Hah. No one likes you." Syaoran teased as he drank from his soda.
Matsumi glared at him, "Maybe I'll just go out with Justin."
Syaoran started to choke on his soda. "What?"
Sakura smiled at him. He was nice, cute, and cared about his family. Most guys were only half of one of those things.
"I swear Kinomoto. You think that you can just come here and steal Syaoran away, you're wrong. I'll get you. Syaoran's mine." A girl's voice said from the shadows.
Please review. I hope you all like it and I promise it will get better. Just give me time to let the story go on.
