It's Never Easy - Chapter 5 (I Think)
Steph-hime: Okay, I'm updating from School, very naughty of me, but hey, I'm bored!! What are ICT lessons and free's for anyway. I've also reposted, the spell checker at school is rubbish!!
Disclaimer: If I owned CCS, E+S would so be official (they're majorly kawaii!!) and Tomoyo would have her oh-so-cute Japanese Voice instead of the dodgy dub voice. In other words, I no own.
(Sakura's POV)
'How did I get myself into this mess?' I asked myself for the fifth time in as many minutes. 'Why did I agree?'
It all started when Tomoyo walked over to me, looking too cheerful.
"Oh, Sakura-chan." She called.
"Yes Tomoyo?" I asked, turning to face the lavender eyed girl.
"I've got the perfect solution to get you out of your slump!" She quickly said.
"And what would that be?" I asked sceptically.
"I'm setting you up on a date!"
" Oh no." I said, backing away from her.
"Come on, it'll be just like the old days when you and Syaoran used to date." She pleaded.
"That was a long time ago, and besides, I don't think I'm ready to date again."
"Please?" She asked, showing puppy dog eye's. "Do it for me."
" Fine Tomoyo."
I caved. I could never say no to Tomoyo, my best friend and cousin. She kind of has a spell over me.
"You look so kawaii!" Tomoyo screamed as I entered the living room.
"So who is this guy?" I ask, hoping that he's not some psychopath.
"He's one of my cousins, and he's really cute." Tomoyo gushed.
The doorbell rang.
"That'll be him!" Tomoyo said, excited running towards the door.
"Luke!" She screamed. "It's been such a long time!" [1]
"So where's this girl that I absolutely have to date?" He asked.
Tomoyo practically dragged him to me.
"This is Sakura. I know you'll get on great!"
Silence.
"So, you're from Japan?" He said awkwardly.
"Yeah, that's right." I answered.
More silence.
I could feel myself willing Tomoyo-chan's driver to go faster.
"What's it like over there?" Luke asked.
"It's pretty, lot's of Cherry Blossom trees. My old road had a lot of them." I answered, remembering skating under the shade.
We finally got to the restaurant.
"The tables just down here." The waiter said, willing us to follow him.
We sat down, and were handed menu's. Then I realised something, my English is not quite as good as it should be.
I cursed to myself. [2]
"Did you say something?" Luke asked, looking into my eye's.
"I'm just having a bit of trouble reading the menu." I sighed, before giggling nervously.
"Don't worry, if you want, I can order for you?" He suggested.
I absentmindedly nodded, and accidentally started to listen in to a conversation.
"Here you are, your normal table." The waiter we had said.
"Thank you." A voice suspiciously like Eriol's said. "Want me to pull out your chair koi?"
"Shut up." A voice hissed. Hmmmm that sounded like Syaoran.
'It can't be.' I said to myself, shaking my head.
"Is something wrong?" my date asked.
"Huh? Oh no, everything's fine." I said. "I, uh, gotta use the girls room." I stood from my seat and made my way to the bathroom.
"It can't be them." I said out loud, not caring if anyone else was in the bathroom.
I quickly washed my hands before opening the door. There they were. Being as inconspicuous as I could, I hid behind a bush.
'I'm getting too much like Tomoyo.' I thought to myself.
I peeked my head over the top of the bush, to see them holding hands.
"Are you okay?"
"Argh!" I said, okay, screamed, knocking over the bush and causing them to look straight at me.
"Hi." I said, laughing nervously.
(Syaoran POV)
"Sakura?" I stood up.
"Hello Sakura-chan, what a coincidence." Eriol said, smiling.
"What are you doing here?" I asked.
"I'm, erm, on a date." Sakura said, before quickly walking back to her table.
"That was unexpected." Eriol commented.
I don't get it. Was she spying on us, or just using the date as an excuse. For all I know, she could have found out that we we're eating her tonight and got a date so she could watch us.
"Syaoran." Eriol whispered, taking my hand in his.
I automatically blushed.
"Mou, your so cute when you blush." [3]
I glared at him.
"Can we go?" I ask.
"Why, just because Sakura-chan's here?" He asked me.
"No, I don't feel like being out right now." I said.
"Okay." He said, signalling for the waiter to come over.
"I think its great that Sakura's on a date." Eriol said.
"Yeah." I answered.
"Something tells me that you're not too happy."
I don't get it. Am I jealous? I shouldn't feel like this, Sakura and I broke up. So why do I feel so protective?
"Let's just go home." I said, taking his hand and slightly pulling him.
[1] Luke - First name I thought of.
[2] Sakura's a bit OOC here, and I apologise!
[3] Mou = Geez.
