Don't leave me…
~*~From previous chapter…~*~
~*~ At the mall ~*~
Sakura walked around the aisles taking a look at all the new clothes that were on sale. There was a pink designer miniskirt that Sakura was fond of but Tomoyo could probably make the same thing so she decided not to get it. She walked out of the store with a glum look on her face.
1 more store she thought.
She walked over to another store. As soon as she was inside the store she accidentally ran into someone.
"Oh sorry…" she cried, helping him up.
They were eye to eye. Immediately Sakura recognised his hazel eyes and his still messy auburn hair.
~*~Chapter 2~*~
It was Li. How could Sakura forget a face like his? Does he remember me? Sakura thought.
"Sorry miss…" he got up quickly and walked off.
H-he didn't remember me?
She had to find out.
"Umm… excuse me but…" Sakura began, as she got out of the store, "Are you…"
She looked around again for him. Where I she? I'm sure he came out here and…
Suddenly Sakura felt a hand fall upon her shoulder, "Hey!"
Sakura turned around to see Eriol.
"Hi."
"Where's Tomoyo?" he asked, looking around.
"Her mum needed to talk to her for some reason…"
"Hey, I'm going to grab a bite. Wanna come?" he invited her.
"Sure…" Sakura replied looking around one more time. I-it was probably my imagination… anyway… why would Li be back in Tomoeda?
"Sakura!" Eriol called, snapping her back to the real world, "Are you coming or what?"
"Coming!"
~*~Kinomoto Residence~*~
Sakura sighed and picked up her phone. She dialed Tomoyo's number.
"Hello?"
Tomoyo picked up.
"Hey Tomoyo!" Sakura smiled, "What's up with you?"
"Nothing just doing homework… What about you?"
"I went to the mall today and I saw…uh…" Sakura began to think telling Tomoyo wasn't such a good idea, "Well uh…"
"Sakura you can tell me anything… I'm your best friend…" Madison assured her.
"Well, what would you say if I told you that I saw…um…Li Syaoran?"
"What?! Are you telling me that you saw Li today? At the mall and you didn't tell me?! Sakura that would've been great on film!!!" Madison yelled, "So has he changed? What did you talk about?"
Sakura sweatdropped, "Madison I said 'IF' I saw him…"
"I would say you're delusional or you're so evil for not calling me right away!"
"Madison, I'm not even sure if it was him…" Sakura sighed.
"So you're admitting that you did see him!"
"No, Madison, I'm just saying that… that…"
Sakura paused What am I saying?
From downstairs Sakura heard a loud shout, "Sakura! I need the phone! Finish up already!"
It was her older brother, Touya. He loved to make fun of Sakura and her friends.
"But Touya!!!" Sakura yelled back down at him, angrily, "I just called!"
"How much time do you want?! There are other people in this house as well! Now get off the phone!"
"Touya, you're not the boss of me anymore! I can do what I want!"
"Not until you're 18 squirt, now hand over the phone or I'll personally have to disconnect you!" Touya began to stomp up the stairs. Sakura ran over to her dresser and tried to push it against the door.
"That's hopeless, Sakura…" yawned Kero stirring from his nap, "Touya is gonna kill you!"
"You know, Kero! No one asked for your opinion so just shut up already," Sakura yelled at the stuffed toy.
Kero sweatdropped, "You know Sakura if you had a manners…"
Sakura gave a long sigh and kept pushing the dresser.
"Uh Sakura? Is this a bad time because if it is I'll go…" Tomoyo suggested.
"Um no… This isn't a bad time I'm just trying to barricade my door," Sakura panted.
Touya banged on Sakura's door.
"Let me in!"
"Oh well in that case…" Tomoyo giggled.
"I better get off… before I get killed…" Sakura laughed, "Bye Tomoyo till tomorrow!"
"Ok. Bye!"
Sakura hung up and opened her door. Touya fell in, as he had been trying to push open the door. Sakura began to laugh.
"What's wrong Touya? Can't stay on your feet?"
Touya grabbed the phone from her, "Ha ha. You should consider becoming a comedian, really…"
He stomped back down the stairs as Sakura closed the door.
"Have you eaten dinner yet?" Came a familiar voice from above her head.
She looked up.
"No, Kero. We haven't eaten dinner…"
Kero's face lit up, "Great! I didn't wanna miss dinner. I'm starved!"
Sakura sweatdropped, "Kero, you're always starved."
"I'll take that as a complement."
Sakura flopped onto her bed and sighed. I wonder if it was LI? I'm positive it was… but I could be wrong…
Those were Sakura's last thoughts as she drifted off to sleep.
~*~ Tuesday~*~
"Wake up!!!" Someone screamed in Sakura's ear, "Rise and shine"
Sakura turned over and groaned.
"Sakura!" Came the voice more clearly now. It was Kero.
She pulled the blanket over her head, "I'll get up in 5 minutes, Kero. Promise."
"You're late… again," Kero sighed.
Immediately Sakura shot up and looked at her clock. Oh man! Not today, not today.
Sakura leaped out of bed and rushed into the bathroom. She ran back into the room a few seconds later.
"What am I going to wear?" she squealed.
Kero sweatdropped as he watched Sakura running back and forth. Sakura quickly grabbed her fave shirt and skirt and pulled them on. She quickly made a spot check before dashing out with her homework, which had hardly been done, spilling out of her backpack.
~*~Tomoeda High~*~
Sakura ran panting and puffing into class. The teacher immediately turned to face her.
"Miss Kinomoto. How come all these students can arrive on time and you can hardly keep your homework in order?" the teacher scolded, looking at the trail of papers that Sakura had left behind her.
"Sorry miss…" Sakura mumbled, taking a seat in the back of the room, near Tomoyo and Eriol.
"Hey Sakura…" Tomoyo whispered.
"Late again?!" Eriol butt in.
"I slept in ok?"
"Miss Kinomoto. You've been here for what? 10 minutes and you can't even keep your mouth shut. If you don't want a detention, I suggest you be quiet and listen," the teacher yelled.
Sakura rolled her eyes
Great… Not another day like this
