Full Summary: Love Blossoms is back! A new student transfers to the prestigious Tokyo U. The student's a she and her name's Sakura Kinomoto.

Pairings: SakuraxSyaoran TomoyoxEriol MeilingxOC

A tale of Love and Hate, Life and Death, and Honesty and Betrayal...

Sakura walked down the hallway as quickly as she could, feeling all eyes on her. She groaned in her head as it was only her first day and several guys had asked her out already, because they wanted to…get to know her. What a joke. Yeah, right. They didn't love her, they love her fucking looks. Crap them. She'd declined and rejected them all in different ways. Like:

"No way I would go out with you or be your girlfriend. You can go to hell."

To the cocky overconfident guys. Complete with a smirk as she watched the guy walked away dejectedly with his friends laughing at him, half his ego destroyed.

"There is no fucking way in hell I will. Hear me?"

Complete with an icy smile with a cold air around her. To the perverted guys which actually had an immediate effect. They shuddered at her coldness.

"I told you four times. There is no way I will go out with you or even be your girlfriend. If you don't get it into your thick skull, I'll retaliate. I may consider castaration."

To the stubborn guys who had challenged her but backed down when she mentioned their privates.

'I need an aspirin… I am so going to take some after school…' A resigned sigh escaped her. She breathed a sigh of relief as she reached her locker. She started to open her locker with her locker combination.

She muttered to herself, in thought, "Now… What was my combination again? Oh, yeah. 17-5-1-26." Her locker opened. Sakura grinned to herself, "Success!"

She felt a tap on her shoulder and so she spun around to see three guys. Immediately, her eyes turned to emerald ice and a cold smirk was on her face. It had an immediate effect. The guys flinched.

"What do you want?" Sakura icily asked. Her icy tone had an underlying hint of menace on it.

"Uhh… We just thought… N-n-n-nothing." The guys stammered and ran away. In their minds they were screaming bloody murder, she's freaking cold!

Sakura sighed, her smirk gone and her eyes back to normal and started taking out her bento and books for her period after break. It was currently break time. The students had twenty minutes worth of break. But, unfortunately for Sakura, she had Calculus after break, which was her worst subject. She inwardly grimaced at her own luck.

"Wow, you sure know how to keep them at bay." A female's voice said in amusement. A chuckle was then heard.

Sakura spun around for the second time that day and blinked in confusion as she saw two girls in front of her staring at her with amused expressions. Realization seeped in and she let out a soft 'Oh' come out from her lips.

"Well, they did deserve it. They were the ones who disturbed me and thank you for your compliment." Sakura smiled. Realization hit her. She slapped a hand to her forehead, "Where are my manners? I'm Sakura Kinomoto. Call me Sakura." The emerald-eyed student stretched out her hand for a hand-shake.

One of the girls shook her head while the other sweatdropped at Sakura's behavior.

The girl who had spoken and sweatdropped had friendly amethyst eyes and thick, dark violet tresses which contrasted nicely with her elegant, slight aristocratic features. She also had full, luscious lips. Her hair was tied into an elegant French braid which fell beneath delicate shoulders. Clad in a pair of boot-cut black jeans which suited her down to the ground and a beautifully-made silk white wrap top, she looked wholesome and sophisticated. Adorning her feet was a pair of platform sandals while around her neck was a silver rosary necklace and her ears a pair of sapphire teardrop earrings.

The other girl who had shaken her head had twinkling ruby eyes and glossy black hair. She was wearing a pair of high-quality slim-fitting dark jeans that hugged her curves in all the right places and a crimson crop top which balanced her outfit. Her onyx black hair was tied into a simple high ponytail. For accessories she was wearing two leather bracelets on each wrist, a pair of quartz earrings and a silver chained reversible pendant that mimicked the constellations representing a star map of the zodiac signs. Coveting her feet was a pair of black-buckled boots which almost reached the knees.

The amethyst eyed girl introduced herself first, extending her creamy hand towards Sakura, "I'm Tomoyo Daidouji. Call me Tomoyo."

The ruby-eyed girl grinned and extended her own hand the emerald-eyed student, "I'm Meiling Li, Syaoran's cousin. Call me Meiling."

Sakura shook hands with them. "Nice to meet you two." She replied. Hesitating slightly, the new student bit her lip briefly as she contemplated something before looking at them. "Um, where do you eat around here?" Sakura asked, tilting her head to the side, unaware that she was using the puppy eyes look.

"Kawaii!" Tomoyo gushed.

Meanwhile, Meiling groaned, "The puppy dog eyes… Oh no… Don't give me that look…"

"What?" Emerald eyes blinked, confused. What were they talking about? What puppy eyes?

Gushing complete, Tomoyo offered. "Well, you could join us. We're meeting the others outside. We could introduce you to them and get you settled in."

Sakura hesitated for a moment before responding. "Well, if it's not too much trouble…"

"It won't be a trouble, Sakura." Meiling said. "Come on."

Ten minutes later, they were outside and sitting under a large Aogiri, otherwise known as a Phoenix Tree – a tree with large, elegant branches and stunning virmillion flowers and leaves – as they got to know each other better, forming better bonds.

Meanwhile…

Syaoran, Ryu and Eriol walked down the hallway with the girls giggling and pointing at them. The three inwardly sighed, resigned and used to the attention that seemed to be never-ending. They had their fair share of stalkers as well, unfortunately, as well as a seemingly endless amount of prepositions. Why do they have so many fan girls? Including rabid ones? Well… This was mainly because of their looks.

Tousled chocolate brown hair and intriguing amber eyes that captivated and garnered respect from all, including sharp, handsome features consisting of high cheekbones and strong jaw; Syaoran Li was many a girl's dream knight in shining armour. He was currently clad in a collared dark forest green jacket with an intricate gold wolf design on the top right side worn over a white shirt and cotton black jeans paired with navy blue sneakers. A black leather watch was around his left wrist, as a dark leather bracelet adorned his other wrist.

On the other hand, Eriol Hiiragizawa was an enigma. Intriguing, mysterious azure eyes framed by a pair of thin-framed glasses, lapis lazuli blue hair and refined features with a touch of regality; his mysterious good looks garnered him much wariness and curiosity as well as attention. He was currently clad in a silver blue button-down shirt and a pair of conservative light blue jeans as black patent casual shoes adorned his feet. On his wrist was a dark brown canvas watch.

Lastly, Ryu Keisuke. Dark spring green hair, mischievous periwinkle-coloured eyes and princely features with a boyish charm that drew people to him as a moth to a flame; he was easily sociable and likable. The green-haired boy was currently attired in a dark slate gray shirt with an intricately designed black dragon with flames covertly underneath said dragon, the word 'Citrine' in bold, subscript letters beneath the image and a pair of golden brown jeans paired with casual Converse sneakers. Adorning one of his wrists was a simple swiss watch.

All of them were currently were in the midst of their walk towards their usual eating place as they made small talk.

"What did you think of the new girl?" inquired Ryu.

Syaoran shrugged, "Could be a naïve innocent girl which I doubt, or maybe one of those dumb blondes with all looks and no brains – which I hope she is not."

"Anything's possible." Eriol reminded them. "We shouldn't judge her first though, we haven't even talked to her." He pointed out logically.

Ryu grinned mischievously, "Says the one who was staring intently at someone..."

Syaoran smirked, playing the game as well, "True. Hmmm ….it was Tomoyo you were staring at, if I remember."

Eriol sputtered indignantly as he attempted to defend himself and his dignity, or what was left of it anyway. Inwardly he was cursing them at catching him staring at Tomoyo, and promised himself that he would get his revenge on the two.

Men.

Eriol huffed and crossed his arms.

Syaoran and Ryu high-fived in triumph while chuckling at Eriol. After all, it's not every day that you get to make the almighty Eriol actually huff.

As it was, they finally reached their meeting spot. To their surprise, the new girl was sitting with Tomoyo and Meiling whilst laughing and chatting.

Tomoyo looked up and saw them, "Hey Eriol! Ryu, Syaoran, hi!"

Meiling greeted them as well as they made themselves comfortable and started on their own lunch.

Sakura fiddled with her fingers a bit, looking at anywhere but the three males.

Tomoyo seemed to read her mind and mouthed the words 'Introduce yourself.'

Taking a deep breath, the emerald-eyed female allowed a friendly grin to spread on her face and greeted them. "Hello. I'm Sakura Kinomoto, transfer student from Hong Kong." She paused, and then added playfully. "You guys can call me Sakura. Kinomoto is too formal, and so is Sakura-san. It makes me sound old." The awkward tension broken, Sakura grinned inwardly at the snickers as she pouted outwardly, "Mou, there's no need to laugh, you know."

This only encouraged their laughter. Sakura kept her laughter inside as she crossed her arms childishly and huffed. Wait a minute; didn't Eriol do that a few minutes ago? Wow, what a coincidence…

'If that doesn't stop them laughing, then maybe…' Sakura thought and an angelic smile replaced her grin.

"So, I hear that the five of you are all…together?" She said innocently as she finished off the last of her bento.

Meiling choked. Tomoyo stared at her, wide-eyed. The three males gaped at her in shock.

"T-that is so not true." Meiling said indignantly, recovering her usage of vocal chords.

The amethyst-eyed student regained her composure, "We're just friends!"

"Where did you even hear that?" Ryu asked in disbelief.

"The day that happens…" Syaoran shook his head as he shuddered inwardly. That was a truly terrifying prospect. They were friends. Friends. Family. Definitely not… Syaoran grimaced inwardly.

Eriol was amused. Amused, but also indignant. "Is that what they're saying these days?"

Sakura burst into laughter. "Kami, that was so precious!" She laughed, clutching her stomach as they realized they'd all been had and started indignantly on the emerald-eyed student who stuck her tongue out at them and tuned out their protests as she hummed and sang Vanessa Carlton's 'A Thousand Miles' on purpose.

Suddenly, a voice was heard.

"Oi! Kaijuu!"
