Desclaimer: I do not own Card Captor Sakura. BUT I DO own Syaoran…IN MY HEART THAT IS! Love uuuu!

A/N: Hey u guys! Thanks for reviewing my first story of Mystified I'm glad that you all liked it. I've been thinking a lot about the story and I've been doing some planning for it. I hope you all like this chapter its longer than the first one. OH yea! I just want u all 2 know that even though I'm a big fan of Cardcaptors (Cardcaptor Sakura) doesn't mean that I'll always have Sakura and Syaoran become a couple in all my stories so watch out cause things aren't always what they seem! ;)

"Soooo...?" Tomoyo asked Sakura with a grin as she and Sakura climbed the staircase to reach their 6th period class.

"Sooo what?" Sakura looked at her friend with a confused look on her face.

"So what do you think about that 'mysterious stranger'!"

Sakura repeated "Mysterious stranger"?

Tomoyo rolled her eyes. Sometimes she worried about her friend. "the mystery guy, the new kid, the one that you were staring at."

Sakura stared at Tomoyo as if she were speaking another language. After what seemed to be a decade, a light bulb suddenly flashed in her head.

"Ooooooooo that guy."

"Yes Sakura, that guy.

"Well what about em'?

Tomoyo did one of those freaky animated sweat drops. "Well do you like him?"

Sakura almost tripped on the stairs when she heard that. "Whaaaaaaaat?" She turned to Tomoyo. "What do you mean do I like him? I don't even know him!"

"I don't know Sakura. I think its love at first sight!"

"Huh, love?" She felt the color rise to her checks when she realized something Tomoyo had said. "And I wasn't starring at him!" But Tomoyo didn't seem to be listening.

"Ahhhh couldn't you just imagine it Sakura? You and the mystery man in a candle lit ballroom. Dancing to a waltz, soft music playing in the background. His arm around your waist pulling you closer and closer. Drawing you into a passionate kiss..." Tomoyo held her hands clenched under her chin. Her eyes sparkled with stars.

"Ummm Tomoyo? Tomoyo...? Helllllloo? Sakura waved her hand in front of Tomoyo's face and sighed. Sometimes she worried about her friend.

Tomoyo jumped from out of her daydream. "That reminds me." I have to make us outfits for the spring feudal Japan dance that's in a few weeks!"

"No Tomoyo. no really I don't think that necessary! I wasn't even going to..."

Tomoyo cut Sakura off. "Yes this is going to be so much fun! I could make u a pink kimono with flowers on it and..."

Great Sakura thought. Once she starts you can never stop her.

-xoxoxoxoxoxoxo-

Sakura and Tomoyo hurried to class and slid into their seats right before the late bell rang. Their teacher Ms. Motozuwa stood in front of the class trying to quiet them down.

"Settle down class settle down. I have some news to tell you. We have a new student joining our class today."

What? No it couldn't be Sakura thought to herself. As if right on cue the door to the class opened and in stepped...

"Ahhh Mr. Li right on time" Ms. Motosuwa said.

It was him! The boy, that guy! The one that Sakura had seen in the schoolyard! Sakura couldn't believe it. What was he doing here? The classes eyes followed him as he made his way down the aisle.

Ms. Motosuwa continued, "This is Li Syaoran, your new classmate."

Whispers from the girls immediately traveled throughout the room.

"He's cute!"

"What's he doin here in this dump?"

"Wonder where he's from."

Sakura kept staring at him. She couldn't help it. The mystery man, her mystery man was here, in the flesh! In her class!

"Now where are we going to place you?" Ms. Motosuwa thought aloud to herself.

She quickly scanned the room. There were only two empty seats left. Please next to me please next to me Sakura thought. Wait a second, what am I thinking!

"How about next to..."

Sakura's eyes sprung open. Did she just say what she thought she said?

-xoxoxoxoxoxoxo-

Syaoran walked toward down the hallway looking for his right class. I don't even know why I'm here he thought to himself. He remembered the conversation he had with his mother back home in his mansion in China...

"We're moving where!" Syaoran shouted at his mother.

"To Japan." Yelan replied softly. "And do not raise your voice at me."

Syaoran exhaled slowly attempting to calm down. "And for what purpose are we moving there?" he growled.

"Because, I think that we all need a break from our lives here in China." She paused and took a sip of her chamomile tea. "I believe that the elders are putting way to much pressure on you since you will be the next to rule the Li empire."

Syaoran rolled his eyes. His mother was always worried about him. Didn't she realize that he wasn't a child anymore? He did things no other 15 year old did. Hell, he even did things some adults he knew couldn't do! He was responsible, head strong and independent. And he didn't need anyone worrying over him. In fact, he didn't need anyone at all.

"Not only that but I think it would do us some good to get away from all the paparazzi and publicity. I am sure you don't like the media trying to get any good dirt on you that they could now do you?"

Syaoran scowled At least that part was right. The media was always trying to get something on Syaoran and his family to make them look as if they were all just a bunch of no good thieves. The last thing they had come up with was that their family was in charge of some underworld conspiracy trying to over throw the government. Maybe being away from it all would ease a little off of his mind.

Yelan rose to her feet. "So its settled then. We leave tomorrow."

Syaoran's mind came back to the present. I was fine with the whole Japan thing but this is ridiculous! I cant believe she's making me go to school! I've never gone to school, I've always been home tutored. "I bet I'm ten times as smart than any of the kids there" he murmured to himself. He stopped in front of a door with the number 132 on it. This is it he thought. The first day of my new life begins now. Taking a deep breath he opened the door.

A woman who Syaoran assumed to be the teacher turned to him, smiled, and said "Ahhh Mr. Li right on time."

Looks kind enough. I'll just have to put her in her place if she starts anything.

He walked down the aisle and stood next to his teacher who gave him a warm smile and told him that her name was Ms. Motosuwa.

She turned to her class and announced "This is Li Syaoran, your new classmate."

Immediately the class broke out in a wave of murmurs. All eyes were glued on Syaoran. He felt like a caged animal at the zoo, and their was nowhere to run.

"Now where are we going to place you?" Ms. Motosuwa thought aloud to herself.

"How about next to...Sakura. Please stand up Sakura."

A girl with auburn shoulder length hair and amazing emerald green eyes. Where have I seen those eyes before? It suddenly hit him. That was the girl he had seen outside when the principle was showing him around the school! Syaoran walked towards the girl and took the seat next to her. Sakura stretched out her hand and gave Syaoran a huge grin.

"Konichiwa! I'm Sakura Kinomoto!"

Syaoran glanced down at her and then down at her hand. He muttered something and then gave his attention to his desk.

Ok...Sakura thought. What was that about?

-xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo-

"I'm home!" Sakura yelled as she and Tomoyo removed their shoes at the door. "Mom! Dad! Toya! Where is everybody?"

They walked into the kitchen and Sakura immediately went for the fridge.

"Hey look at this" Tomoyo picked up a note attached to the fridge and read it out loud.

To my little cherry blossom:

Your father had to run to work for an important errand and wont be home till tonight. Toya's gone to school and I am visiting our new next door neighbors. There are sandwiches in the fridge for you and Tomoyo and if you want you can drop by the neighbors' house to say hello.

With lots of Love,

Mom

"New next door neighbors? I didn't see any moving vans did you?" she asked Tomoyo who shook her head.

"Come on lets go over and introduce ourselves" said Tomoyo pulling Sakura along.

"But the sandwiches" Sakura reached for the fridge.

Tomoyo began to laugh "We can eat when we get back come on you pig!"

The girls stood outside of Sakura's neighbors house. They knocked on the door for the third time.

Sakura's eyes darted around "Maybe nobody's home. Lets go back ok? This place makes me nervous.

Tomoyo turned the knob and the door opened with a creek. "Lets go in"

"I don't know Tomoyo maybe we shouldn't its not right to go in someone's home with permission and...

"Come ON!" she pulled Sakura inside.

Inside the house was dark and the curtains were pulled closed. Tomoyo pried Sakura's fingers from around her arm.

"Ill look for a light switch" she said walking away from Sakura.

"Tomoyo? Tomoyo where'd you go?" Sakura backed into something. "Ahhh!" she and the thing yelled. "It's a ghost!"

The lights flicked on and Sakura found herself on staring into light brown eyes.

"What are you doing here!" Sakura and the person yelled at the same time, there bodies pressed so hard on each other they could feel their each others heart beats.
