Well, becuz in my last chapter, I got lots of complaints that my chapters were too short I made them longer. Tell me if you guys like the story, alright? oh and sorry if I write slow, I had to come up with ideas.
Disclaimer: I don't own CCS. I never and never will. (but i wish i did ^_^*::hehe::)
To ask her or not to ask her....
Chapter. 2*
"Ugh, I hate having to learn Japanese." Syoaran said silently to himself.
"::sigh:: The side-effects of moving to a foreign country, eh? The things one does for love." said a voice.
"W-what?"
"Oops sorry to interrupt. it's just me." answered Takashi.
"Oh, hey. What a coincidence you're sitting right...behind...me. But wait you don't usually sit here. Wait a second... You don't take this class!!!" Syaoran said exasperated.
Takashi smiled. "Your right. I got transferred from Hino-sensei's class to here. And for the silliest reason too. 'Talking too much!' now tell me, isn't that strange? I mean, me?, talk?"
"Yup, that's definitely weird." Syaoran mumbled trying to spare his friend's feelings.
"You know... you really should tell her how you feel"
"W-what? w-who??" said Syoaran trying to act confused.
"You know who I'm talking about."
"N-no I don't."
"Why do you ask her to the dance!?!?"
"Who!?!?"
"What do you mean, who? Why Sakura, of course, you like her, don't you?"
".....yes. Who told you? Tomoyo?!"
"Chill. No one told me, it's just you're so...obvious."
"I AM??? I mean, no I'm not. You don't know what you're talking about!"
::school bell rings::
"Oh! I guess class is over." remarked Takashi.
'I'm saved by the bell' Syoaran thought.
He walked out of class with Takashi not far behind. Syoaran turned around just in time to see Chiharu bonk Takashi and then grab him by the ear and drag him to his next class. After she was done she caught up to Syoaran and yelled for him to wait for her.
"Syoaran-kun I really need to talk to you!" she exclaimed.
"What, now? But class is just about to start!" he replied in anguish.
"Yes! NOW! Follow me." Now Chiharu was dragging him, Syoaran, through the halls. She was really a straight-forward no-buts kinda girl. He had absolutely no idea what Takashi saw in her. Then again, he thought, 'Maybe no one else but me can see Sakura for the most gorgeous, lovely and charismatic girl I ever met.'
He stopped. He was so pathetic.
Chiharu took Syoaran all the way to the empty science labs at the end of the hall.
"What are we doing here?" asked Syoaran, half-upset, half-confused, but mostly very very scared.
"Like I said, I needed to talk to you."
"But here??" It made Syoaran wonder. Why here of all places? Here is where couples usually came to mak-... 'ugh'. He shook the idea out of his head. 'Nah, she wouldn't. Would she?'
"So no one would see us, of course."
"Oh" 'seeing us doing...what??'
She leaned in closer and whispered "I know Sakura would kill me, if she knew I was gonna ask you this."
Syoaran held his breath. What was she gonna do?
"Why don't you ask Sakura to the dance already?!?"
'phew, what a relief'
"I'm sure Takashi-kun has already spoken to you about it"
"um...well..."
"You'd better ask her soon Syoaran-kun or you'll regret it"
After lecturing him, Chiharu left to her class. Her words still rang in his head.
'You'll regret it,...you'll regret it, ... you'll regret it....'
He shook his head wildly trying hard to get rid of the thought. It was really getting on his nerves. It was only morning, about 4th period, not even a little close to lunch and he had been nagged about the dance enough times to make his head spin already! Even at this, he knew that this wasn't the end of it. But he really was sick of it! He didn't have to be told he liked Sakura! He had figured that out all by himself all the way back in 4th grade. That was 6 years ago!!!
Pa-lease! It doesn't take a person THAT long to realize he's in love...
He gasped at what he had just thought. 'Tomoyo was right. I do love her.' He looked down at his feet. 'Where am I ever going to find the courage to tell her?'
"Well, I guess it's off to class now." he said out loud.
"I should say so!" It was Terada-sensei.
'I guess he was on break.' Syoaran thought. 'Lucky for me that I'm not one to think out loud.'
"Ehem, shall escort you to class?"
"uhhhhh..." Syaoran mumbled under his breath. He had never been caught by a teacher before.
"Gomen nasai, Terada-sensei."
"Hai, that's exactly what you'll have to tell your teacher when she finds out you skipped class.
"Ahhhhh.." he had just remembered something, I mean who cares what the teacher says, but what about Sakura? She's in his next class.
'Uh, that's gonna look bad. She thinks I'm such a good student. What am I gonna tell her if she asks what happened.' He could just see it now.~ There he was in front of his most favorite person in the whole entire world just rambling on and on like an idiot, "uh, nothing happened Sakura, I swear. I was talking to Chiharu in an empty science lab that's all."~ 'Oh yea, real believable. Man, is this gonna look bad.'
And while Syoaran thought all this, Terada-sensei just carelessly dragging him closer and closer to his class.. and to embarrassment.
"Kijo-sensei, did you ever wonder where young Li-san went?" Terada inquired.
"Hmmm...the thought never crossed my mind...but now that I think of it, that's probably why my class was so quiet."
The class laughed amongst themselves.
"WHAT?" Syoaran blurted, "but I'm one of the quietest students!"
Looking very perturbed, Kijo-sensei glared at him and said, "Here Li-san, sit."
She sat him down in the closest available seat, which just so happened to be...
right-next-to-Sakura.
'Oh great!' he moaned, 'just great!'
"What happened Li-kun?" Sakura asked sheepishly.
"I have no idea." he muttered.
"Excuse me?"
"O-oh!.. nothing" he stuttered, trying desperately not to tell her what he had done earlier.
