Title: 1,000 Stars
Chapter 2: Getting Acquianted
Author: OneWeirdMoNkEy!
Written on: April 29, 2001
Disclaimer: Same old same old stuff here. I don't own anything except for my character, Satoshi!
*No one... Next to me is... No one. I walk alone on these streets now. No one to laugh with when I walk to school. No one to talk to at all. I'm all alone.* Sakura took small slow steps as she dragged her feet across the smooth sidewalk. Again flashbacks overcame her mind.
-Flashback-
"Syaoran-kun!!!!!!!!"
Syaoran turned around in the direction of the sound of his name. He saw Sakura waving to him as she ran closer and closer towards him. Her short hair was tied back into 2 half pony tails and her bangs were freely dangling from the sides. Her face projected pure happiness. *Wow... She looks so beautiful today...* Syaoran blushed.
"Ohayo (good-morning) Syaoran-kun!" She greeted him while she was trying to catch her breath.
"Ohayo Sakura..."
"Can I walk with you today?"
"Uh... sure"
The birds were singing songs as the two walked to school in silence. *C'mon you baka (stupid)! Say something to her or else she might think your a boring person to talk to...* Syaoran was fussing around in his mind. He didn't know what he should say to Sakura. What if he might say the wrong thing to her. Soon Sakura interrupted his daydreaming.
"So... Syaoran-kun... Do you always walk home by yourself?"
"Well I guess I do now since Meiling is not here anymore."
"Oh... Demo(but), don't you get lonely?"
"I don't mind...."
"Oh well do you wanna walk to school together from now on?"
Syaoran stopped walking and looked at her. She looked back at him. *Hurry up and answer her you baka!!*
"Uh... if you want to..." Syaoran replied. He could feel a slight burn on his cheeks.
"Great!! C'mon lets start walking or else we're going to be late!"
-End of Flashback-
She kicked a rock that was in front of her. *It's not the same without you Syaoran-kun...*
She entered the gates to her school and went straight to her locker. Over there she would meet her best friend, Tomoyo.
"Ohayo Sakura-chan!" She greeted with a smile.
"Ohayo Tomoyo-chan." Sakura said as she returned the smile.
"So Sakura-chan... Did you hear? I heard around school that there's going to be a new student coming today."
"Really?? How interesting... What's his or her name?"
"I don't know what HIS name is."
"Tomoyo-chan.... I thought you were the gossip queen! You're supposed to know everything that goes on at this school!"
"Well.... yeah demo, I don't know anything about this... I only found out today while I was in the office getting some stuff for our Math sensei(teacher)."
"Oh..."
"I want to see this new guy."
"I don't..."
"Sakura-chan... You never care for guys anymore. You're one of the most attractive girls in this school. They even voted you in the stand outs for that in the yearbook. Your in 8th grade and you still don't have a boyfriend."
"So... It's not like this school revolves around how many boyfriends or girlfriends you have."
"I know demo, still Sakura-chan..."
"All the guys here are bakas!"
"So... The new guy might be nice..."
"Tomoyo-chan... He's a guy."
"Oh well... You never really did like the guys at our school. Demo... I know a particular guy you like in Hong Kong." Tomoyo exclaimed putting a sly look on her pretty face.
Sakura didn't say anything because she knew it was true. All she did was blush a reddish color.
~*Bell Rings, School Starts*~
"Everyone, I'd like to introduce you to our new student, Kimura Satoshi. I know all of you will show the respect and courtesy he deserves. Now Satoshi, would you mind if I placed you in the back?"
The tall boy shook his head. "No Noguchi-sensei. The back is fine"
"Okay good. Now I'll place you next to Kinomoto Sakura. Sakura please raise your hand."
Sakura let out a big sigh. *I hope this guy is not like the other guys here at my school. They all act like stupid fools! Thinking of me as if I'm some stupid trophy to show off. They don't care about my feelings. None of them do! Only one does... Demo, he's all the way in Hong Kong. He says he's coming back demo, I have my doubts. He went all the way there to marry Meiling-chan and I don't think he would back down from a marriage like that...*
She raised her hand very low signaling Noguchi-sensei that she did not want the new boy to sit next to her. But he knew she was just being stubborn. "Will you PLEASE raise your hand higher Ms. Kinomoto."
Sakura let another big sigh and raised her hand higher. Satoshi walked over and took out his hand. "Ohayo Kinomoto-san. I'm Kimura Satoshi. It's a pleasure to meet you."
Sakura just looked at him. Her emerald eyes studied his features. His body was built up a little. He had black spiked up hair and his crimson eyes brought out the red highlights in his hair. *Crimson eyes... Never seen someone like that before* She placed her hand in his. *His hands... They're so warm. It reminds me of Syaoran's hands.* "Ohayo Kimura-kun. Please call me Sakura-chan. You don't have to be so formal towards me."
"Okay Sakura-chan. And you don't have to be formal towards me neither. Please call me Satoshi-kun."
In the right corner, Tomoyo watched as Sakura introduced herself to him. Her amethyst eyes widened and she bolted up right. *That look.... Sakura-chan are you falling for him?*
~*Afterschool*~
The bell rang and Sakura was about to zip up her backpack when she felt a hand on her shoulder. She wurled around to find Satoshi smiling at her. "Hey Sakura, do you walk home?"
She looked at him thinking that he was trying to flirt with her. "Hai(yes), why?"
He shrugged. "Just wondering. Which way do you walk?"
Sakura pointed to the left which was the opposite side of where her house was. *I don't want this guy stalking me for the rest of school year!*
"Oh... I walk this way..." He pointed to the right. Sakura then had an annoyed look on her face. *Great now he walks the same way I do...*
He noticed the expression on her face and he step back a little. "Hey are you okay? Did I say something wrong?"
"Iie(No)... Did I point to the left? Heh clumsy me! I meant to the right! Hehe... Sometimes I get my left and rights mixed up!" *I don't want him to think I'm a liar through out the year neither* Sakura laughed sheepishly as she sweatdropped.
"Uh.... Okay... So do you wanna walk together?"
"Uh... I'm walking home with my other friend"
"Oh, well can I please walk with you guys? I don't really want to look like a loner."
"Uh... if you really want to..."
~*As they were walking*~
Sakura held an annoyed face as she stared at Satoshi. *I didn't really think he would say yes!*
Tomoyo caught her expression and giggled. "So Kimura-kun..."
"Please, call me Satoshi-kun"
"Okay Satoshi-kun, where are you from?"
"Oh I'm from America"
"Really? Wow I've always wanted to go there and see the sites."
"Heh well there's really nothing there..."
"How come you know Japanese so well Satoshi-kun?"
"Well... I am Japanese... I mean, doesn't my name sound Japanese???" He said sarcasticly.
Sakura caught on to this. She got annoyed. She didn't really like people we were always sarcastic. It made her feel stupid. "SHUT UP SATOSHI-KUN!" she yelled.
Tomoyo giggled. "Well... I see that you two are getting along very well..." Tomoyo stated sarcasticly.
Sakura was starting to grow a vein on her forehead.
"I know huh??" Satoshi said with a big grin.
"You guys are impossible!" Sakura screamed as she stomped in front of them.
"Well excuse me Ms. I-take-everything-too-seriously." Satoshi replied.
Sakura turned around and gave him an evil death glare. But Satoshi just stood there with a smile on his face. "What did you call me?!!" Sakura didn't want to wait for his response. She raised her hand so she could slap the heck out of him but Tomoyo held her back.
"Tomoyo-chan let me go!! I need to teach this boy a lesson!!!!"
"Sakura-chan calm down!! He's just joking..."
"I DON'T CARE! LET ME AT HIM!!!"
"SAKURA-CHAN!"
"Well this is my turn... Ja ne(see ya later) girls!"
"Don't say 'ja ne' to me!!!!!!!!" Sakura yelled and she started walking and stomping on her way home.
Tomoyo waved good-bye to Satoshi and ran to catch up with Sakura.
"He's nice..." Tomoyo said out of no where.
Sakura stopped walking and glared at Tomoyo. Sakura stared at her with an 'I can't believe you just said that' expression. "Nice.... You think that baka is NICE?!!"
"Hai... Don't you think so??" Tomoyo asked.
"Tomoyo-chan don't even ask me that question. If he gets me really mad... ER... I'm going to use one of my cards on him!!"
"Um... Okay..." Tomoyo whispered. *Sakura-chan I know you like him more than you think you do. You gave him the look when you guys first met. Like you did with Li-kun. Could this mean that your falling for Satoshi-kun and your getting over Li-kun? Nah... You love Li-kun with all your heart... Right?"
~*Next Morning*~
"Wow... This is the first time you woke up early..." Kero stated as he concentrated on the new video game Sakura just bought him, DDR 3rd mix.
"I know..." Sakura replied as she brushed her hair. "Oh who cares, I'll just leave my hair down today."
"Demo, it's hot... Shouldn't you put your hair up? You have long hair..." Kero suggested.
"I guess so... Arigato(Thanks) for the advice." She said as she started putting up her hair.
"You welcome... Hmm... Sakura... What does 'SSR' mean on this video game?"
"I don't know why don't you try it..."
"Okay..." He put the music to 'End of the Century' on training mode.
"Ja ne Kero-chan!"
"Yeah you too Sakura."
Kero pressed start and soon music started. His eyes widened when he saw all these arrows running up the screen. "AAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!" He tried to press start so he could fail himself but he remembered he was in training mode, he couldn't fail. So he just started pressing the arrows as best as he could. "HELP ME!!! HELP ME!!" he yelled as more combos started scrolling up the screen. Finally he pressed the last arrow. "HAH YES I STILL LIVE!!!" He laughed with victory until he fell over. His eyes were swirling around anime style. *Note to self... Never, ever, EVER... put it on SSR when you are just a beginner...*
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hehe I've added a new character! Hehe and wasn't the last part funny!! haha (no one laughs) ()^_^ hehe okay forget it! Well I thought it was funny. I mean, c'mon, imagin Kero trying to do 'End of the Century' on SSR!! SSR has like a million half beats and a million doubles! Plus 'End of the Century' is hard on SSR... I know because I tried it... and I was on training mode too so I couldn't fail myself... Okay well anyone have any questions or comments?? If you do please review! Okay and none of that 5 words in the review stuff! I'm getting sick of it... Please leave really thoughtful reviews. I want to know your full feelings about this fic because... I don't know but I have a feeling that it sucks. Oh well I don't know, but I have to know so please review. Okay thanks again for the people who reviewed last time.
