Chapter 1- The New Boy
"Miss Daidouji, there's a phone call for you." A little stout maid handed Tomoyo a cordless phone. "Moshi Moshi! This is Tomoyo speaking. Who's this?" "This is Sakura. I --" Sakura, Tomoyo's cousin got cut off. "HI! NICE TO HEAR FROM YOU! HAVEN'T HEARD YOUR VOICE FOR A VERY LONG TIME COUS, WHAT'S UP?" Tomoyo screeched excitedly into the receiver. "Hi, I'm calling from a hotel phone. Long distance call and Touya offered to pay for the phone bills. He's wringing his neck now, so I can't talk too long. I'll be back in a week's time. Could you come fetch me from the airport?" said Sakura. "Sakura quit gabbing on the phone. You're burning a hole in my pocket." Tomoyo heard Touya shout. "Honti ni? (Really?)" Tomoyo shouted. "Yeah.Ja (Bye)" shouted Sakura as Touya wrenched the phone away from Sakura. He hung the phone back. "YAHOO!" Tomoyo shouted and jumped for joy. Sakura was off at Hawaii on vacation with Touya and Fujitaka. She had already been there for two weeks. Back at the resort, Sakura glared at Touya and activated the Fire Card, aiming it at his pocket. "There, you want a hole, I'll give you a hole. Teaches you for interrupting my phone calls. Besides, you did offer to pay for the phone bills right?" Said Sakura. Touya was frantically patting his pocket to extinguish the flame (You know comic style).
~ One week later Japan airport ~
'I can't wait to see Tomoyo' thought Sakura as she stepped into the airport. She scanned her eyes through the packed airport, searching for Tomoyo. She could not find her, but instead found another interesting thing. She saw a fortune telling table, with a lady seated behind it. The lady had frizzy puffed hair and wore some weird patterned silk lined robes. Curious, Sakura crossed over to her. She hid her powers as well as she could. "Hi, could I have my fortune told?" asked Sakura. The lady looked up at her. "Sure. Please sit here." The lady answered in a faraway and mystical voice. Following that, she touched Sakura's forehead and chanted some words. Sakura felt and an electrical sensation pass through her body. The lady looked up at her and said, "There will be a new man in your life. Be it love or danger, there will be one." Puzzled, Sakura walked back to where the others were waiting. Tomoyo was already standing there. Once she saw Tomoyo, she forgot about the fortune telling lady and what she said. "Konnichiwa Tomoyo-Chan!" Sakura waved to Tomoyo. She walked over to her and gave her a hug. "Konnichiwa Sakura-Chan!" Tomoyo replied, "it's good to have you back." Together, they went out of the airport.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------
"Ms. Kinomoto, could you please come up to the front of the class and read out your holiday essay?" said Mr. Terada. 'Uh-oh. I totally forgot to do it!' Sakura frantically searched through her bag, trying to stall for time. "Just a sec." She told Mr. Terada. "Brring." The Tomoeda School bell rang, signaling the end of the school day. 'Phew, saved by the school bell, as always.' Sakura sighed, and gathered her things. She picked up her bag and asked Tomoyo, "Wanna come to my house? I've got no after-school-activities." Tomoyo nodded. ~ On the road after school ~
The sun was shining. It was a sweltering hot day. Heat seemed to be hovering at ground level. Sakura and Tomoyo were perspiring on the way home from school. "It's so hot! Let's go to the ice-cream parlor and get some ice cream. I'll go get it." Said Sakura. Tomoyo started to search for her money, but Sakura was already off. "Don't bother about the money. My treat!" Shouted Sakura. She rounded a corner and bumped into someone. The impact was so great that she fell back. "Gomenasi (Sorry), Gomenasi!" Sakura apologized profusely and looked up.
What she saw made her blush. In front of her stood a handsome guy. He had messy brown hair and the loveliest (in Sakura's opinion) chocolate brown eyes. "Never mind. Daijoubu ka (Are you alright)?" The boy asked Sakura. "Hai (Yes)!" Sakura muttered. She dare not look up in fear of blushing even more. "I'm Li Syaoran. You can call me Syaoran." The boy said stretching out his hand. "I'm Sakura, Sakura Kinomoto." Sakura took his hand and shook it. 'She's so pretty. Her eyes are so green' thought Syaoran blushing. "Hey Sakura, what's wrong?" Tomoyo shouted catching up. She stopped at the sight of Syaoran. She blushed too. Syaoran looked at her with her flowing black, long hair, and his eyes finally rested on her face. 'Why must all the girls in Tomoeda be so pretty?' Syaoran sighed. "Come on, I'll treat you all to ice cream." Said Syaoran. "Anyway, I'm Li Syaoran." Syaoran introduced himself again to Tomoyo. "I'm Tomoyo. Tomoyo Daidouji. Can I call you Syaoran?" Tomoyo blushed hard. "Of course." Replied Syaoran and he lead the way into the ice cream parlor.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------
Syaoran stepped into Tomoeda High School. He walked down the halls buzzing with the student's gossips. Finally, he came to class 8-D. He slid open the door and plopped into an empty seat. The school bell rang and the teacher rushed into class. "Good morning. Today, we have a new student joining us. Li Syaoran, could you please stand and introduce yourself to the class?" The teacher went over to the board and wrote Syaoran's name on the board. Syaoran stood up and introduced himself. The girls started to giggle behind him. The day dragged on and finally it was break time. Syaoran decided to explore his new school, so he went to the garden. It was mid-summer and cherry blossoms were blossoming everywhere. Tomoeda High School has a huge garden and a pond in the middle of it. This garden was where many students come together and escape from all the schoolwork. Syaoran took a deep breath of air. He gazed at the scenery and saw something, which made his eyes grow round in wonder. He saw a familiar girl with auburn brown hair. 'Who's she? She feels special.' Syaoran crossed over to the girl and realize that she was Sakura. Syaoran crossed over to her. "Hi, Sakura. Remember me? Syao-" Syaoran's jaw dropped open. There was a boy standing beside her. He had his arms around her waist. "Hi! I didn't know you enrolled into this school!" said Sakura excitedly. She waved her hand in front of his face and said, "HELLO! Earth to Syaoran!" Syaoran snapped back to reality. He glared at the boy's arms around her waist and immediately felt a pang of jealousy and a pinch of anger. "Uh, yeah." Syaoran stared coldly at the boy and left. The boy looked at Syaoran's back and said, "What's up with him man?! Who's he?" Sakura wriggled out of his grasp and strode away.
~ Next Day ~
Syaoran again went to the garden to do the load of homework he had to catch up with. He saw Sakura with yet another different boy sitting by the pond. Syaoran couldn't take this anymore. He gathered all his things and stalked away.
~ Next Day ~
Now Syaoran knew better than to go to the garden. He went to the library instead. He settled himself into a chair and started to do his homework. Then, he heard the library door open. He glanced back and saw two figures walk in. Upon a closer look, he realized that one of them was Sakura. She was talking animatedly with a boy. 'What the- Another boyfriend? Is she that popular? She changes boyfriend everyday!' Syaoran pretended not to notice them and tried to hide himself behind one of the bookshelves. Too late, Sakura spotted him at the corner of her eye. She dragged her new boyfriend along to meet Syaoran. "Hey Syaoran!" Sakura called. Syaoran froze and slowly looked back at them. "Hi Syaoran, this is my boyfriend, Roy." Roy had these beautiful sky blue eyes and they seemed to be piercing through Syaoran. His wavy black hair was pulled into a short ponytail. Syaoran eyed the ponytail critically, nodded and the both of them looked away. Suddenly, Sakura started to wave to someone. Syaoran looked up and realized it was that black hair girl named Tomoyo. "Konnichiwa Tomoyo-Chan. Remember Syaoran? Well, I found him among the bookshelves looking for a book. He was so absorbed in looking for a book that he didn't even notice us coming." * Syaoran: sweat drop * (Ain't she dense) 'How could I forget him?' Tomoyo sighed. Sakura paused for a breath and continued, "Roy and I want to go on a double date but we don't know who to go with. So we decided to pair you and Syaoran up. Well, is it alright with you both?" Alarmed, Syaoran's eyes snapped up to look at Tomoyo. Tomoyo blushed and looked away. "No." Syaoran said flatly and started to gather his things. Tomoyo was crestfallen. Sakura looked at Tomoyo helplessly and tried once more. "Onegai (Please).You just arrived at Japan. You should come with us to sight-see." Syaoran heaved a sigh and said, "Alright, alright. I'll go. Just inform me about the place, time and the date." Syaoran backed out of the library. "That's great! Arigatuo (Thank You)!" Sakura called after him. Once outside the library, Syaoran leaned against the wall and said to himself, "As long as I get to spend time with Sakura, I'll go."
~ Day of Double Date ~
"Sakura, you've covered every bit of your room with your clothes! Including- me!" Kero yelled. "Oh, sorry Kero! I need to find the perfect dress." Sakura continued to search through her wardrobe. Kero scratched his head and asked, "What's so special about this date. Isn't it like the rest of the normal dates?" "What normal dates?" Sakura shot back. Kero shrugged his shoulders and continued, "Well, the normal dates with those guys.erm.ah.those boyfriends you change once every, let's say, two days?" "Well this is someone special." Sakura giggled. "Oh you've FINALLY found someone you really like." Sakura let another giggle escape from her before saying, "Well, you can say- love at first sight." Suddenly the doorbell rang. Curious, Kero flew over to the window to see who her date was. Sakura's date had his back turned towards the gate. Furthermore, part of the house's wall was blocking Kero's view, so Kero didn't catch a glimpse of his face. 'Hmm.dark, long, wavy black hair.looks familiar. Oh great! Sakura's dad and brother aren't at home. I'll go take a peek later.' Thought Kero. Sakura picked her way over to the window. "Ah! She's here!" That caught Kero's attention. 'Sakura's date is a 'she'?' Sakura turned to Kero. "Tomoyo's here. Could you invite her in?" (Kero, who was in the air, froze and fell to the ground like a block of ice.) Kero invited Tomoyo in and led her to the sitting area. "Gomen, I'm late." Apologize Tomoyo. Kero snorted and said, "Luckily you were late. If you were earlier, you would have to wait longer for Sakura. She's not even dressed yet."
~ At the restaurant ~
Roy and Syaoran sat at the table in silence, waiting for their dates. It was a square table, and the two boys were seated opposite each other. They had their heads turned away from each other. Every few minutes, they turned and glared at each other. "Hi guys. My, are both of you early! Why did both of you come so early?" Sakura called out them. * Everyone sweat drop * Tomoyo raised her eyebrow at Sakura and hissed into her ear, "We're the ones who are late." "Oh! Sorry." Syaoran seemed stunned by Sakura's looks. She was wearing a baby pink dress which hugged her body and showed her perfect figure. Sakura noticed that Syaoran was staring at her and tried to test his reaction. She stooped down and gave Roy a kiss on the lips. She then whispered into his ear, making sure what she said was audible, "I'm so sorry I'm late. Did you wait long DARLING?" Roy seemed stunned and redness was already creeping into his face. "Uh.Yes.Erm.No.I didn't wait long." He raised his hand to his mouth, surprised by Sakura's action. Sakura looked sideways at Syaoran. He was fuming. His face was turning the same colour as Roy's and looked like it was ready to explode. He was gripping firmly onto his napkin, as if trying to contain his anger. His knuckles were already turning white. He was glaring fiercely at Roy, who didn't seem to notice Syaoran. Satisfied at Syaoran's reaction, she smiled and settled herself on a chair.
"Okay, Let's order our dinner." Said Sakura. Once the dinner arrived, Syaoran snatched the plate from the waiter. Sakura continued her sweet talk with Roy. Syaoran glared at them and brought his fork down on his plate with a loud clank and started to eat roughly. When dinner was over, Roy stood up and told the others, "Sakura and I will be going to the nearby park for a walk. We'll meet you all back here later! See ya later!" Roy stood up and took Sakura gently by the arm. Without waiting for anyone to protest, Roy proceeded to the door with his arm around her shoulder. Syaoran stared at them angrily. Tomoyo and Syaoran were left sitting at the table. They looked at each other in awkward silence. The candle on the table flickered and its shadow danced across Tomoyo and Syaoran's faces. Tomoyo squirmed and blushed. She looked down at her lap. Syaoran started to feel uncomfortable and decided to talk to break the silence. "Erm.so.To.Tomoyo." A startled Tomoyo looked up quickly in surprise, "Yea.yes?" "Well, since we've just met, tell me about your family background." Syaoran continued slowly. Tomoyo flushed and said, "My family? Oh. My family consists of my mom." (Ok, I'll not go through this part. You all should know right?)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------
~ Meanwhile, at the park ~
The moon was bright that night. Everything was bathed under it's magnificent light. Sakura and Roy were strolling on the path in a comfortable silence. Roy however seemed to be rather nervous. (Well, they've just met a few days ago. You can't expect them to be mind readers and know everything about each other.) Sakura had her way with boys and struck up the conversation. "So, Roy tell me about your interests." Sakura looked up at Roy earnestly. That certainly got Roy talking. "Well, as you know, I'm the school pro at the computer, did you know an interesting thing about the computer? You can."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------
~ Back to the restaurant ~
Tomoyo continued to talk and scrutinized Syaoran closely. He seemed to be getting bored. 'Gosh! No wonder he's bored! I've been talking like I've just read out from a composition!' Tomoyo suddenly realized. ".So that's my family for you!" Tomoyo finished off. Syaoran looked like he had just dozed off. "Oh, sorry. So, you don't have any siblings at all?" said Syaoran apologetically. Tomoyo shook her head and replied firmly, "No." 'Oh. She doesn't have any siblings at all. She must be very lonely. Furthermore, her mom isn't always at home. She only has her servants to keep her company. Poor thing.' Syaoran searched through her eyes and saw a sadness that lingered far behind. "So you must be very lonely." Syaoran voiced out his thoughts. Tomoyo looked at him, "No! Well.sometimes, well, yes I have to admit it." Tomoyo heaved a sigh. Syaoran stood up and reached across the table and laid his fingers on Tomoyo's soft cheek. "Anyway, with me around, you won't be lonely at all." Tomoyo flushed a deep dark crimson colour. "Thanks."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------
~ The park again ~
".I've got to show you my trophies when you come one day. I've got loads." Roy turned to Sakura. 'Sorry buster. You should know that I never keep a boy for more than three days. This is already your second day.Finally he's finished. He has been talking for a LONG time. He's really self centered! Can't stand him. I was just about to fall to the ground and fall asleep. I wonder what's going on back at the restaurant. Hrrmph! Roy pulled me out just like that without asking for my advice.' Sakura was dragging her feet on the ground. "Erm, Roy excuse me, but I need to use the bathroom. I'll meet you back at the restaurant." Sakura strolled away in the direction of the restaurant. 'Hrrmph. He doesn't even know I'm gone. He's probably still thinking of his computers. Ha. If he doesn't look out where he's walking, he's going to bang into the tree up ahead. I better run back first to check on those two.' Sakura sniggered under her breath and tiptoed away. She ran back to the restaurant and stopped short in front of the door. She gasped. She came just in time to see Syaoran stroke Tomoyo's cheek and Tomoyo to smile back at him. Suddenly Roy came running back. (He really banged into the tree before realizing that Sakura wasn't by his side.)

Chapter 1- The New Boy
"Miss Daidouji, there's a phone call for you." A little stout maid handed Tomoyo a cordless phone. "Moshi Moshi! This is Tomoyo speaking. Who's this?" "This is Sakura. I --" Sakura, Tomoyo's cousin got cut off. "HI! NICE TO HEAR FROM YOU! HAVEN'T HEARD YOUR VOICE FOR A VERY LONG TIME COUS, WHAT'S UP?" Tomoyo screeched excitedly into the receiver. "Hi, I'm calling from a hotel phone. Long distance call and Touya offered to pay for the phone bills. He's wringing his neck now, so I can't talk too long. I'll be back in a week's time. Could you come fetch me from the airport?" said Sakura. "Sakura quit gabbing on the phone. You're burning a hole in my pocket." Tomoyo heard Touya shout. "Honti ni? (Really?)" Tomoyo shouted. "Yeah.Ja (Bye)" shouted Sakura as Touya wrenched the phone away from Sakura. He hung the phone back. "YAHOO!" Tomoyo shouted and jumped for joy. Sakura was off at Hawaii on vacation with Touya and Fujitaka. She had already been there for two weeks. Back at the resort, Sakura glared at Touya and activated the Fire Card, aiming it at his pocket. "There, you want a hole, I'll give you a hole. Teaches you for interrupting my phone calls. Besides, you did offer to pay for the phone bills right?" Said Sakura. Touya was frantically patting his pocket to extinguish the flame (You know comic style).

'I can't wait to see Tomoyo' thought Sakura as she stepped into the airport. She scanned her eyes through the packed airport, searching for Tomoyo. She could not find her, but instead found another interesting thing. She saw a fortune telling table, with a lady seated behind it. The lady had frizzy puffed hair and wore some weird patterned silk lined robes. Curious, Sakura crossed over to her. She hid her powers as well as she could. "Hi, could I have my fortune told?" asked Sakura. The lady looked up at her. "Sure. Please sit here." The lady answered in a faraway and mystical voice. Following that, she touched Sakura's forehead and chanted some words. Sakura felt and an electrical sensation pass through her body. The lady looked up at her and said, "There will be a new man in your life. Be it love or danger, there will be one." Puzzled, Sakura walked back to where the others were waiting. Tomoyo was already standing there. Once she saw Tomoyo, she forgot about the fortune telling lady and what she said. "Konnichiwa Tomoyo-Chan!" Sakura waved to Tomoyo.

Tomoyo suddenly realized. ".So that's my family for you!" Tomoyo finished off. Syaoran looked like he had just dozed off. "Oh, sorry.

Furthermore, her mom isn't always at home. She only has her servants to keep her company. Poor thing.' Syaoran searched through her eyes and saw a sadness that lingered far behind. "So you must be very lonely." Syaoran voiced out his thoughts. Tomoyo looked at him, "No! Well.sometimes, well, yes I have to admit it." Tomoyo heaved a sigh. Syaoran stood up and reached across the table and laid his fingers on Tomoyo's soft cheek. "Anyway, with me around, you won't be lonely at all." Tomoyo flushed a deep dark crimson colour. "Thanks."

".I've got to show you my trophies when you come one day. I've got loads." Roy turned to Sakura. 'Sorry buster. You should know that I never keep a boy for more than three days. This is already your second day.Finally he's finished. He has been talking for a LONG time. He's really self centered! Can't stand him. I was just about to fall to the ground and fall asleep. I wonder what's going on back at the restaurant. Hrrmph! Roy pulled me out just like that without asking for my advice.' Sakura was dragging her feet on the ground. "Erm, Roy excuse me, but I need to use the bathroom. I'll meet you back at the restaurant." Sakura strolled away in the direction of the restaurant. 'Hrrmph. He doesn't even know I'm gone. He's probably still thinking of his computers. Ha. If he doesn't look out where he's walking, he's going to bang into the tree up ahead. I better run back first to check on those two.' Sakura sniggered under her breath and tiptoed away. She ran back to the restaurant and stopped short in front of the door. She gasped. She came just in time to see Syaoran stroke Tomoyo's cheek and Tomoyo to smile back at him. Suddenly Roy came running back. (He really banged into the tree before realizing that Sakura wasn't by his side.)
