The Picnic and some

'Huh...? Where am I?' Li whispered to himself.

'Li... Li...' Somebody called out for him. 'LI!!!'

'Wha?!' Li yelled.

'What is wrong with you today Li? It isn't like you to fall asleep like that, especially on a warm day like today!' Sakura exclamed.

'Oh calm down Sakura.' Madison smiled. 'It's not like you've never done that.' Sakura's face went red. A few giggles were heard.

'Well... I, um, that's...' Sakura tried to make a excuse up.

'LI!!!!!' Meilin was running towards them. 'Li!!! Guess what?'

'What? Meilin? What are you doing here? I thought you were on vacation!'

'I was on vacation. But my mother said I could come and spend the vacation with you!' Meilin looked excited.

'Meilin?! What's are you doing here?! You're supposed to be on vacation relaxed so WE can be relaxed! You hear me?!' Instead, Sakura said 'Glad you're back Meilin!' and managed a smile.

'Whatever!' Meilin rolled her eyes. 'Oh Li! I'm so happy to be here with you. Aren't you glad that I'm here?' She changed the subject and faced Li. Li was silent. 'Hello? Li? Are you in there?' Meilin waved her hand in front of his eyes. Li sighed. 'Yeah, I'm in here. I think I'll just go home. I'm feeling tired.'

'What?! But, but Li! I just got here and...'

'Bye.' Li ignored her and got up.

'But...' Meilin tried to finish.

'Bye.'

'But, but...'

'I SAID BYE!' Li stood up and ran home.

'Look what you did AVALON!' Meilin faced Sakura and gave her the eyes. 'You just bore him to death! See?! Ugh... Oh, Li!!!!!' Meilin jumped up and chased after Li.

'Sakura!' Chelsea yelled. 'I can't believe you let her get away with things like that! I mean, how can you let her blame everything that happens between her and Li on you?'

'Yeah Sakura!' Nikki joined in. 'You shouldn't let ger get away like that. You've gotta teach her a lesson some day.' Everybody started to talk about the past when Meilin would blame Sakura about everything.

~Sakura POV~

I was listening to all these until I got lost in my thoughts. You can't blame me for thinking can you? 'I guess they are right about that. She can't blame other people for her problems. Someday she will have to face them herself.' I thought. I mean, Meilin thinks she has so much rights just because she's Li's fiencee! 'They're only future husband and wife because Meilin made Li promise her with puppy eyes.' I thought again. I sighed. Then I was dragged back into Earth by Madison.

~Normal POV~

'Sakura!' Madison snapped. 'Snap out of it!' She giggled. 'What's the matter? You've been staring at that path way ever since Li left!'

'Oh, I, I'm sorry. I must be losing it. Well, I think I should go home and finish my H.W. (Homework)' Sakura said.

'Of course you do! *wink* *wink* *hint* *hint* *nudge* nudge*' Madison said as she giggled some more.

'Madison!' Sakura face went red.

'Okay, okay!' Madison giggled even more.

'Cya later you guys!' Sakura said as she ignored Madison giggling and got up.

'Cya Sakura!' and 'Bye!' and 'Talk to ya later!' were thrown at Sakura as she left.

'Wait for me!!!!!' Madison yelled. Sakura slowed down. She was running before but now she was walking slowly looking up. 'Whatcha looking at Sakura?' Sakura turned around quickly. 'Oh it's you Eriol! I thought it was uh, somebody else.' She said turning red this time for no reason.

'Yep. Who did you expect?' Eriol smiled.

'I, uh, excepted, um, Madison! Yeah, Madison!' Sakura said. 'Where are you heading Eriol?' She changed the subject quickly so he wouldn't notice anything.

'I'm just walking around. It's a very nice day indeed today. Well I'll see you at school in two days Sakura! Say hi for me to Madison!' Eriol ran off and his voice disapeared.

'Hey Sakura!' Madison's voice was heard huffing and puffing. 'I, *huff* told *puff* you *huff* to wait for me!!'

'Hoe... Sorry. I just saw Eriol and he told me to say hi to you for him.'

'Eriol...?' Madison said. Her face went red when she heard his name.

'Yeah... Hey Madison, by any chance have you got a crush on...'

'NO!' Madison yelled not giving Sakura a chance to finish.

'Um... I didn't even tell you the name.' Sakura looked at Madison with funny eyes. 'Hmmm... I think miss fasion disigner here has got a crush on...'

'SAKURA!' Madison yelled as her face got redder and redder.

'Okay, okay! Just teasing! For once, I get a chance to tease you! Let me take advantage of it!' Sakura joked.

'Well then Sakura...'

'Yeah?'

'Do you have a crush on...' Madison didn't finish.

'On...' Sakura said trying to make it sound as unobvious as possible.

Madison whispered into her ear.

'MADISON!!!!!!!!!!!!' Instead, Sakura's face went red.

'Am I right miss magic?' Madison giggled once more. Sakura and Madison continued their talk about 'crushes' on their way home.

'Okay Sakura! Here's my stop! I'll call you tomorrow!' Madison yelled happily.

'Okay! And one more thing Madison...' Sakura dragged off.

'Yeah Sakura?'

'What are you so happy about?!' Sakura giggled this time. Madison joined her.

'Well, I feel better after sharing this with my best friend. After all, this is what best friends are for!' Madison said softly and ran home before Sakura could say anything. 'Bye Sakura!'

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

'Settle down class!' Mr. Terada said to the class. He started to call out the attendance. Rita blushed when Mr. Terada called her name. When he finished calling out the attendance he said 'Now class. We have a new student. You may come in now Miyuki.' A girl came in. Everybody was silent. She had light brown hair tied in a pony tail, purplish-bluish kinda color of eyes, and was about Sakura's size.

'Well...? This is Miyuki everybody. Will you please introduce yourself Miyuki?' The girl looked at Mr. Terada and nodded.

'Hi... My name is Miyuki and uh... I'm from Hong-Kong. I hope to make a lot of new friends here!' Miyuki smiled slightly.

'Thank you Miyuki. Now, where shall we place you?' Mr. Terada looked around. He stopped right behind Eriol. 'We could place you over there. I'll have to get a new desk for you. We don't have any desks in this class anymore since we get at least one new student every year.' Miyuki looked up and whispered something. 'Well, until we get the desk which will be soon, you can sit in that desk.' He pointed to one desk which was empty. 'The girl who sits there is absent today so you can sit there until recess is over.' Miyuki walked slowly to the desk and got all of her textbooks out. A few eyes were still looking her way.

'And today class, we will start out with...' Mr. Terada started their first lesson.
