A Deeper Love.
Summary: Sakura is the school nerd. She snorts, wears the all time famous thick black glasses, and never brushes her hair at all. She has the biggest crush on the school's most popular kid ever, Syaoran Li, realizing she doesn't have a chance at all, she changes her whole appearance just to get his attention with the help of Tomoyo and Eriol. So is the transformation worth anything when she realizes that Li isn't the stuck guy she always thought he was?
Disclaimer: I don't own anything!
'Going back to school is always fun.' I thought to myself sarcastically as I drove my silver mercedes toward the front of the school. Everyone was watching with envy as I parked it. A crowd gathered around me admiring my car and asked if they could hold my books.
"Wow Sakura, you are soo beautiful. I wish I was like you!" a girl exclaimed but was pushed back into the crowd.
"Sakura will you be my girlfriend?" a hot football player asked but I rolled my eyes and shook my head. Lonna Parr, the most popular girl at our school and also my best friend came up to me.
"Sakura! Hey, we should go party this weekend! Are you doing anything?" She asked. I smiled.
"No way, loser." I said as I pushed her out of the crowd and continued my glory walk to the school entrance. I take that back, we're not friends anymore.
Suddenly Syaoran Li, the most hottest boy in Japan appeared right in front of me. He took my hand.
"Hey babe, how about you, me this weekend. A date?" he asked with a smooth voice, brushing his hair aside, and showed off his muscular arms. I giggled as everyone around me gushed.
"ok." I smiled as I held onto his arm and we walked into the school together with the same large crowd following idolizing our every step. Then the bell started ring and kept on ringing and ringing...
"Why does the bell keep ringing.." I complained with a weird look.
"BECAUSE YOU NEED TO WAKE UP SAKURA!" I heard Touya yell from there, I was pulled out from the best dream ever.
I sat up and glanced at the blurry clock. Realizing everything was blurry I search for my thick black glasses and put them on. I was now in my room with an annoying brother as a neighbor.
"Turn off that stupid alarm!" Touya yelled from the next room. I quickly turned off the clock and laid back down.
'That was the best dream I ever had.' I told myself as I smiled with my big dorky glasses. In reality, I guess you could call me a... nerd. Heh.. I stared into space thinking about what I had dream about but slowly drifted off to sleep...
"SAKURA! YOU ARE LATE FOR SCHOOL!" My eyes quickly opened as I glanced at the clock. 8:37! I am late.
My dad yelled again from below.
I changed into a large green shirt 3 times bigger than me and threw on a baggy pair of jeans I forgot to wash last night. I didn't even bother looking in the mirror or brush my hair. Running down the stairs I could hear my father lecturing.
"Sakura Kinomoto this is the 5th time you have been late, there was a reason for me buying you that alarm clock you know!" Of course I wasn't listening, I put on my shoes and grabbed my messenger bag.
I ran out the door and got into my old white convertible I bought from Ebay. (haha hey what can I say? Anything could happen on Ebay!)
Rushing in the school, class had already started. I ran up the stairs wondering if I locked the car but also trying to avoid any teachers out in the hallways at the same time.
I opened the door to find the teacher introducing a new student to the class.
"Miss Kinomoto, this is the fifth time you are late!" The teacher, Mrs. Sheer yelled at me giving me the same lecture like my dad did. Everyone looked at me, even the new student. I rolled my eyes and sat down at my desk which was in the back.
"Anyways, Mr. Hiiragiza... I'm sorry how do you pronounce your name?" Mrs. Sheer blushed. The boy flicked his blue hair to the side and said in a bold voice.
"Just call me Eriol." the whole population of girls in this class sighed and blushed along with the teacher.
"Ok, Mr. Eriol-"
"Please just call me Eriol." he interrupted her. It caught the teacher off guard but she didn't mind.
"O-ok Eriol. You may sit behind Lonna Parr since that is the only desk availiable. Wait, Miss Lacy Kowell I thought that was your desk. Why did you move when you know you are not suppose to?" Mrs. Sheer said in a mean voice but when she looked at Eriol, she smiled sweetly.
Lonna Parr raised her hand batting her eyelashes.
"Mrs. Sheer, Lacy is sick and I don't want to catch her whatever nasty disease she has so I told her to move." she explained while twirling her pale blonde hair. 'Whaaaaaaat a liarrrrr!' I thought to myself and most of the students in the class would agree.
"Is that true, Miss Kowell?" Mrs. Sheer asked. Lonna glared at Lacy threatening her to say what she wanted to say. Lacy was too frighten to speak, she just nodded.
"Oh, well then Eriol you may sit behind the girl with the pink shirt." Mrs. Sheer pointed at the snobby girl.
Lonna smiled accidently dropping her pen to the ground. She bend over and tried to pick it up right in front of Eriol trying to show off her low cut shirt. "Slut" I coughed out loud.
She smiled at him and pretended she didn't hear me.
"Sorry it just... fell out." she said innocently. Eriol raised his eyebrows and walked past by her.
"Eriol!" Syaoran called out and slapped his hand.
"What is up man? I haven't seen you in forever!" he said to Eriol.
"Hey!" Eriol greeted him and sat down. Lonna turned around.
"Syaoran you know him?" she giggled. And from there, it was the talk of the day of the new student that came into town who became popular.
During lunch, Lonna Parr and her cliche friends were all over the poor new guy. It must suck to be constantly annoyed by the most preppiest girl at our school.
I sat under a cherry blossom tree sitting by myself. Well I have friends though, they are just... not all here today... but that doesn't mean I have imaginary friends, just friends that couldn't make it to this school on this certain day... and for the rest of the school year.
I chewed my food slowly trying to kill the time.
Yes, I admit it.. I have no friends except...
"Hi Sakura!" Tomoyo Daidouji called out, she was my cousin and the only nice girl who would wave at me. Or maybe the only reason she is waving at me is because she is my cousin... Everyone loved her because of her sense of style and fashion oh and the fact that she is extremely rich. Well most of the students here are but she still is considered the most wealthiest if you don't include Syaoran Li.
"Hey Tomoyo!" I greeted. Her and her reluntanct friends sat with me under the tree.
"I can't believe your birthday is coming up!" she exclaimed.
"Wow I'm surprise you actually remember!" I said. Its nice to know somebody knew when my birthday was.
"So what are you goign to do?" she asked anxiously. I shrugged.
"Lets go shopping at the mall! Or get a total makeover!" she suggested.
"Or how about I waste all my birthday money on going to that video game convention at the end of this month! I want to go there! I heard they got new games coming out!" I said out loud. Then the lovely silence came in our way.
"Sakura.. um.. " Tomoyo tried to say, "well... I got to go." she quickly ran off with her friends.I laughed well more like snorted but still I call it my laugh. I know Tomoyo wasn't fond of video games since the last time we went there for my birthday and the year before that.. heh.. I go there every year for it, if you didn't know. Since this year is my 16th birthday I might as well just... do something different.. maybe. Psssh yeah right! This year is the 154th anniversary, I can't miss that!
I looked over at the table with all the ditzy girly girls and the big macho jocks. One girl was laughing and flirting with a boy. On the other end of the table was a group of girls cluttered together looking at a magazine. Lonna Parr was over there looking all slutty as she can be with boys practically praising and worshiping her feet. No this is not a hint of jealousy here... just wondering what it would be like to actually be.. one of those ditzy girly girls.
I stuck out my tongue with disgust. What am I talking about?
I packed up all my stuff, I rushed into the school heading toward the girl's restroom.
Passing through the hallways I accidenlty bumped into Syaoran Li and his friends.
"Hey speedy, watch where you are going!" his friend Drew Penn exclaimed, the major ass above all the male population yet so loved by many girls at the same time.
I rolled my eyes trying not to avert my eyes toward the hottest guy ever... Li, who was looking at the clock. Darn it, I just looked at him. I mentally slap myself in the head.
I continue my walk to the restroom until someone stopped me.
"Hey, I saw you talking to Tomoyo Daidouji earlier." Eriol Hiiragizawa said as he stood in front of me blocking my way.
"Thats great." I said uninterested, folding my arms across my chest.
"Well, do you know her?" he asked anxiously. I snorted.
"duh! yeah, in case you didn't know. She is my cousin." I replied. 'Everybody knew that!' I told myself in my head
"Tomoyo Daidouji? No way! She is so hott! and you are... well.. you're you." Penn said comparing the two. I scoffed and rolled my eyes again. 'Ok not everybody knows...' I frowned.
"Thats nice to know." I said as the bell rang signaling lunch was finally over and I started to walk away from the three boys.
It seem like I didn't care but honestly that hurt deep inside. Well that brought my self esteem down by a lot. I guess I am an outcast to this society and its not fair. I never ever had a boyfriend or a date to any dances. Or even been to a dance! I never had someone crushing on me just me and my thousand crushes. I never had any friends except Tomoyo well she doesn't count because she's family but everyone else around me at least had one of those things I never got.
I trudged along to restroom feeling down. I came up to a mirror staring at the at the girl looking back at me. I frowned and watched as other girls perfect themselves. All I could do is re-adjust my glasses. Not much of a improvement but I must say these glasses bring out my eyes. I smiled, seeing that all the girls giving me weird looks.
Yes, I admit it. I am jealous, so kill me.
