Chapter 1. Smoothies.
It was your average, cold winter afternoon. Snow calmly falling down from the light blue-clouded skies, and cherry blossom petals dancing around the trees. Sakura ordered a cup of hot chocolate and walked out into the winter wonderland. She let out a deep sigh and walked over to a bench. She sat down and took a sip of her hot chocolate. She let out another sigh as the hot chocolate warmed her body. She looked up at the Cherry Blossom Tree hovering over her.

'It's December… exactly 2 more weeks till Christmas…'She thought to herself, as she got up to walk around the mall. She unzipped her jacket as she stepped inside the heated mall. The soft tune of a song danced around the store. Sakura drank her last sip of hot chocolate and threw it into the garbage. She stuck a hand into her pocket and pulled out a Christmas list.

As she silently walked from store to store, she thought about what Christmas would be like this year. She let out a deep sigh, and walked to the food court, her mind still pondering about Christmas. She placed her shopping bags on an empty chair next to her and sat down. A nice slow, Christmas song rang through the mall.

"Last Christmas, I gave you my heart…." Sakura hummed to it, enjoying the tune.
She and Tomoyo had planned to meet at the mall yesterday, 'were is she?' Sakura thought to herself as she turned her head, looking for Tomoyo.

"This year, to save me from tears…" Sakura slightly turned her head towards each direction, north, east, south, and west. No sign of Tomoyo. Sakura let out an annoyed sigh and stood up. She grabbed her things and left.

As she walked away items from her shopping bag mysteriously falling out, a young boy, with messy chocolate hair and matching mysterious amber eyes noticed the mysterious trail of items and began to pick them up.

Sakura stopped walking when she reached a small smoothie shop, she reached into her shopping bag to look for her purse. But when she reached in, the bag was completely empty! No purse, no clothes, no presents! Sakura rushed to the nearest bench and began to look through the shopping bag.

EVEYRTHING was gone! Sakura looked at the bag with confusion. Her emerald orbs showing sadness. She dropped the empty bag on the floor and placed her head into her hands.

Sakura bent over to pick up the empty bag when she saw two feet nearing her. She looked up and looked at the boy holding her purse and presents. Sakura's mouth opened, as she stared into the boys amber eyes.

The boy put the things down on the bench and grabbed the empty shopping bag of the floor. He chuckled, "There's a hole in this." He said, pointing out the hole.

Sakura groaned, "Thanks for pointing out the obvious Sherlock." Sakura immediately covered her mouth. 'Gahhh! That wasn't supposed to be said out loud!' She mentally yelled at herself for doing such a stupid thing.

The boy's smile quickly turned into a frown, "That's the thanks I get for getting your stuff?" He said coldly as he glared daggers at Sakura.

Sakura defensively stood up and stared at him, with the matching glare he had on his face, "Oh my! Thankyou ever so much!" She said with a sarcastic voice as she opened the holey bag and placed her items inside.

The boy rolled his eyes, "Stupid girl! THERES A HOLE IN IT!" He yelled at her. Sakura simply smiled at him and walked away, towards the nearest store to replace the holey-bag. The boy glared at her back, "DON'T EXPECT ME TO PICK UP YOUR STUFF EITHER!" He yelled after her. Sakura simply smiled to herself and walked into the store.

'Who cares if him and me got off the wrong foot? It's not like I'm going to see him again.' She calmly thought to herself as she placed her purchased items into the new bag and walked out to her car to head over to Tomoyo's house.
