Chapter 4: A Surprise
Sakura POV
I started to show up to school campus with the group. As soon as we get to class, we heard whispers around the classroom. One of our classmate which is also our friend Rika came up to us smiling.
"Hey guys." Said Rika
"So what's happening?" we asked together
"It looks like we are getting a new classmate." Said Rika excitingly
Before we could usher another word, the classroom door slide open and then the professor walked in with a new student.
"Syaoran, Eriol!" called out a girl with long black jet hair. She threw her arms around them as if they were very close.
For some reasons I got very jealous. Of course Tomoyo noticed this and give me a concern look. Before I could say something, the professor talked out loud in a tone of voice that surprised us.
"Would you like to introduce yourself to the class?" said the professor amusingly
"My name is Mei Lin Li, I'm a cousin of Syaoran and friends with Eriol. I also came here from Hong Kong. Pleasure to meet you all." Said Mei Lin smiling
The class clapped with excitement as they welcome Mei Lin to the classroom.
"Thank you for the introduction. You may sit next to Syaoran, and Eriol then." Called out the professor as they gather our attention for the continuing lessons
I felt very relief that Mei Lin was a cousin of Syaoran. So she couldn't be a competition, then I hoped silently. A smile then appears onto my face. Few minutes later, I felt a nudge around me as I notice it was Tomoyo again. The little devil friend I should call her, as I rolled my eyes.
"I saw that." Accused Tomoyo with a smirk
"Oh please, you saw nothing." I said smiling
I poke Tomoyo back in the ribs and we both giggle at the interaction we had. This of course had capture Syaoran attention, who was smiling.
Syaoran POV
I couldn't help but smile at their friend's interaction between Sakura and Tomoyo. I also noticed Sakura was wearing a different outfit than other day. She was dressed in a simple white T Shirt that is a V neck again in simple skinny blue jeans.
I noticed the first day I caught her, that she was a fashionable person who can take care of herself. I have to say I like that about a girl a lot and what she wears, I do observe closely. I sort of am a stalker, aren't I? A smirk just forms across my face because I can't help what I feel for the girl I'm attracted too.
It's so soon to called a moment that I do have feelings for her, but at the same time my past mistakes and the one who hurt me the most is holding me back from falling for her. I guess, only time would tell wouldn't it?
Mei Lin POV
So that's who Syaoran liked. I was amused, and excited at the same time. I haven't see Syaoran smile like that in years. I know what he saw in that girl named Sakura Kinomoto. There's something about her, that I liked also, but not in that way of course.
This year will be interesting, and I'll definitely be friends with the girls here. Syaoran, you been through so much the past few years, as family I wish what is best for you and hope you aren't stupid enough to let Sakura go because of that.
Normal POV
"Okay Class! Class is ending now, so go along." Said the Professor
The class quickly scurried out their way to the door. The group of Sakura, Tomoyo, Eriol, Syaoran, and Mei Lin went out the door lastly. Mei Lin turned around to face the girls with a smile.
"It's nice to meet you two! I hope we can be good friends." Said Mei Lin smiling
"Same here." Said Sakura/Tomoyo
"Great, so what's for lunch?" said Mei Lin
The group laughed, as they went to the cafeteria to get their lunch.
-Few Minutes Later -
"What class you have later guys?" called out Mei Lin who was sipping on her drink
"I have piano." Said Sakura
"I have music singing lessons." Said Tomoyo
"History." Said Eriol
"Science." Said Syaoran
"What about you Mei Lin?" said Tomoyo
"I have Science with Syaoran." Said Mei Lin
Syaoran groaned rolling his eyes, the group just burst out laughing at his movements. While enjoying their lunch break for another twenty minutes, they begin splitting their directions to their next class. Of course Eriol walked Tomoyo to her music class, while Sakura went with Syaoran and Mei Lin.
"Bye Sakura, hope to see you and Tomoyo later." Called out Mei Lin waving as Sakura did the same.
"Syaoran, I just wanted you to know you deserve happiness like everyone of us. Just don't miss this chance with Sakura." Said Mei Lin patting on Syaoran shoulder
"Thanks Mei." Said Syaoran with a generous smile
With that both cousins walked off to their Science class that was waiting for them. As each of them was in class, interesting things will begin to happen soon, how soon? Well stay tune, my readers.
Ends of Chapter 4
