Syaoran's POV/At the airport*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Oh, Syaoran! I'm gonna miss you!" Cried Meiling.
"Yeah, I'll miss you, too," Syaoran replied. 'YES! No more Meiling for a LONG time! Yes! Yes! Yes!'
"Bye Syaoran. We're going to miss you," said his mother.
"Bye, Mother. I have to go now!" Syaoran waved as he boarded the plane.
"Welcome on board Hong Kong Airways! Our flight to Japan will take approximately two hours. Please enjoy the ride!"
'This is it! I'm going to college! I wonder what Tokyo University will be like. I can't wait to get there,' thought Syaoran as he sat stiffly in his seat.
When the flight arrived at the Tokyo International Airport, Syaoran got off the plane and went to get his baggage. And after that was through he caught a cab to take him to his dorm. When the taxi arrived at Syaoran's destination he paid the driver, got out and walked calmly to where he was suppose to check in.
"Your name, please," said the man behind the desk.
"Li Syaoran."
"Ok, follow me." The man lead Syaoran up three flights of stairs to his dorm. "You'll be staying with your roommate in dorm #305. Here's your key." And with that he walked off.
Syaoran knocked on the door of his dorm, and after a few seconds it opened. "Hello. Are you my new roommate?" Asked boy who had opened the door. He was tall with dark brown hair and eyes that matched his hair perfectly.
"Yes, I'm Li Syaoran," he said with a small bow.
His roommate bowed, too and said, "Nice to meet you, Li. I'm Kishii Ryu. Come on in."
Syaoran stepped into a large yellow room. I t contained two beds, a couch, an armchair, a small coffee table, and a TV. "This room is probably gonna be really tight with both of us in here," said Ryu.
"Mmm-hmm."
"So. Where are you from, Li?" Asked Ryu.
"China."
"Really? Sounds cool," said Ryu, trying to make conversation as Syaoran started to unpack.
"Mmm-hmm."
"Are you always this talkative?" Asked Ryu sarcastically.
Syaoran glared at him, and Ryu shrank back a little.
"Um... Sorry. So... Um... Do you have a girlfriend or something? Back in China?"
This got Syaoran talking... A little. "You could call her that I guess. I was set up with my cousin. She's my fiancée."
"Oh, what does she look like?" Asked Ryu eagerly.
'Sorry to do this Meiling, but I don't want this guy bugging me about you.' Thought Syaoran. Then he said, "She's fat, with beady eyes, and she has a mustache."
"Oh, that's nice. Do you...um... Love her?" Asked Ryu uncertainly.
"She's like my sister. And I don't love her the way she wants me too."
"Oh, ok."
"What about you? Do you have a girlfriend?" Asked Syaoran. 'I might as well talk to this guy, seeing that he's not going to shut up.'
"No, but I saw this really hot chic on campus yesterday and I'd like to get to know her better."
"Oh that's nice you'll have to point her out to me sometime," Syaoran said then he yawned. "I guess I'm still tired from my flight. I'm gonna lay down for a while ok?"
"Sure, I was planning on going out and looking around again today, so I guess I'll go do that now. See ya." And out the door he went.
'Aww... Some peace and quiet.' Thought Syaoran as he lay down.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*First class at Tokyo University*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Welcome to Tokyo University, class. I am sure all of you will enjoy this year, and do your best!" Said the homeroom professor. "Now lets get to know each other. When I point to you stand up and tell the class your name and your hobbies and what ever else you see fit to say."
"Gosh, see treats us like we're in elementary school, still!" Whispered Ryu to Syaoran, who was sitting next to him. Syaoran just nodded. The teacher was just two people in front of him.
"Hi! I'm Kori Whinder! I'm from America. I like boys and make-up!" Said a girl with blond pigtails.
"That's nice," said the professor, then pointed to the girl in front of Syaoran. She had auburn hair that stretched down to her waist. And as she turned around and smiled at the rest of the class Syaoran could see she had green eyes.
"Hello. I'm Kinomoto Sakura. I enjoy cheer leading and almost all sports."
Syaoran felt a nudge from his right. "That's the girl that I told you about when you got here!" Whispered Ryu, "She's pretty hot, huh?"
Syaoran just nodded a little. He had to admit, that she was really pretty. And judging by the looks the boys were giving her, they also agreed with Ryu. Then Syaoran noticed the professor pointing at him and he stood up. "I'm Li Syaoran and I'm from China. I like playing soccer." Then he sat down again. He didn't notice the whispering from a lot of the girls in the class.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*After Classes*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Do you think she has a boyfriend?" Asked Ryu, who was referring to Kimomoto Sakura.
"How am I supposed to know? You should just ask her out and see what she says," replied Syaoran impatiently. Personally he didn't see anything special about this Kinomoto girl, except that she was good looking. But there were a lot of pretty girls on campus.
"Oh, look! There she is. I'm gonna go talk to her. Wait here," said Ryu as he walked off.
"Whatever." Syaoran watched as Ryu talked to Kinomoto, and after about three minutes Ryu motioned for Syaoran to join them. Syaoran just shrugged his shoulders and walked forward.
"Hi. You're Li Syaoran, right?" Asked a smiling Sakura.
"Yes." 'Weird. Why do I feel a magical aura from this girl?'
"Li, Sakura likes soccer, too! And so do I!" Ryu exclaimed.
"That's nice."
"Maybe we could get together with some friends this Saturday and play a game," suggested Sakura.
"Sounds like fun! Are you in, Li?" Asked Ryu.
"You bet!" Said Syaoran. 'If she thinks she's going to beat me at soccer, then she's got another thing coming!'
"Sounds like a date! I'll see you guys tomorrow!" Said Sakura as she walked off.
"So, I take it, she doesn't have a boyfriend?" Asked Syaoran after she was out of earshot.
"Oh, she does, his name is Miwa Zeshin. But Kinomoto-san is really nice, and easy to talk to."
"I see." Said Syaoran. 'There's still something funny about that girl. Why does she have an aura? And there is no way she can even think she can beat me at soccer!'
