Summary: I had known her just about all my life. But there wasn't any real serious connection. Just the frequent hello, good evening, goodbye took place that I never returned. I never stopped to think about her really. I always thought she was just like everyone else out there. I was wrong though. She isn't like everyone else.

Freefall

The moment I had pulled up into the driveway of Tomoyo's place, she ran out, an amazingly large grin plastered on her face. It was a surprise that her face didn't break open. Running over to the car, she yanked open Sakura's side of the car door and with yelping slightly, Sakura allowed herself to be dragged in by the over enthusiastic Tomoyo.
"Hi Syaoran!" She called out to me when she had reached the front door once more as if just remembering me. Grunting, I got out of the door and shut Sakura's door as well and allowed myself into the mansion.
By the time I was inside, I was barely able to see Sakura being dragged up the stairs to what I presumed to be Tomoyo's room. Daidouji-san loved us and all, but ever since we found out girl and boys didn't have cooties after all, she never allowed us to go anywhere near her daughter's room. Thinking of Eriol, I smirked. And she had good reason to make such a decision too.

"Okay! I know something big happened today! Tell me!" Tomoyo screeched at the top of her lungs upon throwing Sakura onto the Daidouji heiress' canopy purple bed.
"Ow! Tomoyo-chan you're killing my ears!" Sakura exclaimed, covering them with a slight scowl upon her delicate features.
"Yeah, well that won't be the only thing I'll be killing if you don't tell me what happened today this instant!" Tomoyo cried, stomping her foot like a young child. Giggling, Sakura uncovered her ears and pat a spot next to her, signalling the dark-haired beauty to sit down.
"Well he came to my house this morning and met me when I was on my way to the mall since I had to buy some jewellery for the dress," Sakura began, thinking of where to start. "And he asked me to breakfast and—"
"Good God Sakura! Get to the part where he asked you to be his girlfriend!" Tomoyo cried exasperated.
"I never said he asked me to be his girlfriend. I just said he asked me something," Sakura told her friend, in a somewhat calm manner, her right eye twitching ever-so-slightly, getting quite tired of her friend's outbursts.
"You mean he didn't ask?" Tomoyo asked quietly, pouting.
"Oh he did," Sakura answered, before grabbing a pillow and holding it between herself and Tomoyo in order to avoid being launched on.
"Hey!" Tomoyo pouted again when she finally noticed she was hugging a pillow and not her best friend.
"Well I'd rather not fall off the bed, thank you very much," Sakura replied stiffly, scared for her life since there was that sinister look in her best friend's eyes.
"And what did you say you foolish little girl?" Tomoyo asked, edging closer to Sakura, ready to pound her if she came up with the wrong answer.
Taking in a deep breath, she answered…

"Hey Syaoran," Eriol asked, popping a few ketchup flavoured potato chips in his mouth, "why are girls so weird?"
"I wish I knew. If you can answer that, you can answer anything," I sighed, blowing my bangs from my eyes. Why were they so weird?
"Me and Tomoyo for example. We were making out of the couch one moment," Eriol began as a disgusted look covered my face at the thought of them doing that on the same place I was sitting on, and moved to the loveseat, "and the next she pushes me off screaming, 'Sakura-chan's here!'."
"Hey, at least you've made it that far," I grumbled beneath my breath. Cheh. He was complaining that he got interrupted? At he got to do something that was worth getting upset because it was interrupted.
"Oh, by the way, how'd the question popping go?" Eriol asked me leaning in eagerly with the ever present Cheshire cat grin on his face. He was probably begging Kami that she said no just to see me miserable. Feh. What a friend.
"Oh, well—" I began to answer before the tune to Stickwitu by the Pussy Cat Dolls interrupted us.
"Please tell me that's Tomoyo's phone," I spluttered out, seeing Eriol's face colour. Hearing him mumble a shut up and answer the phone I howled with laughter. He liked those songs? Feeling a grin overtake my face, I knew I'd have to tell Tai and use it against him, in quite the public manner, somehow.
"Shut up you idiot! Tomoyo made me do it!" He hissed amidst my laughter. "Well at least I didn't get rejected." Yup, that was good enough to shut me up.
"Now I didn't say she re—" I began but was cut off yet again.
BAM
"What was that?" Eriol asked quickly.
"I dunno. It sounded like it was coming from upstairs," I replied, slowly getting to my feet.
"Should we go and check up on the girls?" Eriol asked rising to his feet as well. Nodding, we both proceeded to the stairs.
"Ow! Bloody hell Tomoyo! What the hell was that for!" We heard Sakura's voice screech. First backing in surprise to hear Sakura swear, we looked at each other before nodding in understanding.
Never get involved in a girl fight. Ever.

Readers: Hey there everyone! Thank you so much to all the people who read or reviewed or did both for the last chapter. It means a lot so thank you all. /Shares cookies with all/ So, chapter 9 is up and running, and you still don't know what Sakura's answer was for sure, even though there are hints. This was just a fun chapter for me really, not really anything too good, but as long as I had a fun time writing it and you guys got an update that's all that matters right? Right! Well, drop me a review and let me know what you think, I'll try and get another chapter up for next week. Take care everyone and ja ne!
