*Chapter 4 - News Travels Fast*

"Kero-chan! Kero-chan!" Sakura called to the guardian beast. A little golden-yellow body emerged from one of her drawers.

"What's all the screamin' for?" she smiled.

"Syaoran asked me to the dance!"

"So, the gaki finally asked you to the dance?" Kero-chan smirked.

"He is NOT a gaki! He's very nice to me, and I... I..." she shook her head. "Where's the phone?" she asked.

"In the drawer, I think." he responded, fluttering over to the TV to play Xzylon Warriors, his favourite video game. Sakura dialed Tomoyo's number.

"Moshi Moshi, Daidouji residence, Tomoyo speaking." a voice answered.

"Moshi Moshi! It's Sakura."

"What's up?" she asked cheerfully.

"Syaoran asked me to the dance!" Sakura gushed.

"Does that mean I can make you a dress?" Tomoyo responded, dazed.

"Hai, of course, Tomoyo. I know it will be beautiful." She smiled, even though Tomoyo couldn't see it.

"Would you like to come over tomorrow? We could have tea and cake and I can measure you for a dress." she offered.

"Sure, that sounds fine." Sakura answered back.

"Okay, meet me at the fence tomorrow after school. Ja Ne, Sakura!" They hung up. Sakura lugged her history textbook out of her backpack. She opened it and started to read. All the words began to spin and she felt dizzy. She laid her head on the textbook and fell asleep, only to be awoken minutes later by the shrill ring of the telephone.

"Eh, moshi moshi, Sakura speaking." she answered groggily.

"Moshi moshi Sakura-chan! You sound tired." It was Meilin.

"Hai. I fell asleep studying for the history quiz tomorrow."

"I heard the news!" Meilin's voice sounded bright and cheerey.

"What news?" Sakura asked.

"You and Syaoran are going to the dance, arn't you? I knew he'd ask you! Aww... you two will look sooooo kawaii! together!" Sakura scrathed her head.

"Heh heh, news travels fast, doesn't it? Sorry Meilin, I gotta go. See ya tomorrow at school. Ja ne." They hung up and Sakura finished her studying.

Sakura watched the clock. "C'mon, just a little more..." BRRRRIIIING! Three o'clock. Time to go to Tomoyo's house. Everyone shuffled out of the classroom, all except for Syaoran. He approached Terada-Sensei.

"I-I would like to purchase my dance tickets." he said, staring at his sensei square in the eye. He smiled while taking two tickets out from his drawer.

"So, who are you taking to the dance?" he asked.

"Sa-Sakura-chan..." he whispered, blushing lightly.

"I knew you would ask her!" he chuckled, handing him the tickets. Sayoran gave him the yen as he walked out of the classroom, a big smirk on his face. It seemed as if the entire world knew he liked Sakura.

"Hey Syaoran!" Yamazaki screamed from across the hallway. "I heard you were going to the dance with Sakura! I knew you could ask her! You're lucky to be going to the dance with the hottest girl in class!" Chiharu pinched his ear and they started fighting in the middle of the hallway. Syaoran ran out the door in disbelief, and didn't stop til he got home.

Sakura stood outside by the fence waiting for Tomoyo when Rob, the school punk, walked over to her. "So, Sakura..." he said trying to seduce her. "Wanna go to the dance?"

"I-I-I'm already going with Syaoran." she said, turning her head.

"Woudn't you much rather go with me?" he asked, pushing up on her. She leaned back into the fence, holding on to the wire as tightly as she could.

"NO!" she said, almost spitting in his face.

"What if I make you wanna go with me?" he questioned, putting his hands on her hips, and kissing her neck.

"HEY!" she finally heard someone call. Rob turned around.

"What do you want Meilin?" he snorted.

"Leave Sakura alone. She alredy has a date for the dance." Rob let go of Sakura. He circled Meilin a few times before saying,

"I'll make you a deal." He smiled at Meilin. "I'll leave Sakura alone. If you go to the dance with me."
