Author's Note: BIG PROBLEM! I will still write, but it has been very bad lately. I have so many test now that I missed so much school. Plus, have you heard? After the funeral, and writing some chapters, my 4-year old cousin somehow breaks my right hand and two of my fingers on my left hand, so it is so complicated to write, but I will try. My next chapters, 8 and 9 won't be out till next month hopefully, I should recover by then, thanx for that brief review. This is the chapter I did 3 days before I broke my hand. Enjoy, I will cope and try to get good grades even though my hands aren't in writing condition. Catch ya Later!
Disclaimer: I don't own CCS, and Fei's from Xenogears, but I do own my broken hands that had written this before that event happened...

Chapter 7-School Never Got So Depressing
Part 2
(During School)
Key:
blah = Thinking
"blah" = Talking
*******************************************************************************
The teacher then noticed that she had two new students, and walked them in. "Class, you have two new students from Hong Kong. Please welcome Li Syaoran and Li Meiling." Mr. Kamazaki said. Then two students came in looking like everyone, and then stood in the front of the class. One, the girl was looking at everyone with a cheery smile on her face. The other, the boy, had a frown and serious eyes, but was looking straight out the window.
"Hi, of course my name is Meiling Li, but call me Meiling since there will be two Li's in here. I love a lot of things, soccer's cool. What's to say, I have a gaki for a cousin, not mentioning any names......." Then she looked over at Syaoran, and continued, "I like martial arts, so don't mess with me, umm.....okay, Syaoran your turn."
"The names Syaoran, call me LI, though," stressing on the Li, "I take martial arts, and i had an extreme disliking to many things, okay, I'm done." The teacher than told them where to sit, there was four seats left, two behind Sakura and two on the other side. "Li, sit over by the wall next to Kaworu-san" and pointed to him, "and Meiling, sit behind him." The two went to their new seats, and prepared for the lesson.
I am so glad he/she isn't sitting next to me.... Syaoran and Sakura thought together.
"Open your text books to page 23 in the Connective Math book........." and the lesson drone on and on for a while. Finally, the bell rung, and they left the classroom. Meiling and Syaoran went to PE next, and sadly, Sakura and Fei were in that class, too.
********************************************************************************
Meiling and Syaoran went to go change into their gym uniform, configuring of a brick red t-shirt and navy shorts. Once out, the coach started to give directions.
"Ok, for you newbies, today, we will be playing soccer two on two, but of course, we must warm-up, starting with 10 laps around the gym, two jumping jacks, sit-ups, push-ups, chin-ups, etc. now start." Mr. Jubei said, and everyone went. Syaoran, ran with Meiling around the gym, right behind Sakura and Fei, who was pair-up, too.
"Jealous?" Meiling asked, directing her eyes to Sakura and Fei in front of her.
"Nope, just tired. You know, we could run much faster and be done in a minute." Syaoran said, ignoring her signals.
"Yeah, but where's the fun in that?"
"Where's the fun in goin' slow when it seems like walking."
"True, but we have to watch them." Meiling watched the couple run pretty fast, oblivious to them talking. She's completely ignored him...not good........ Then, she noticed that they were finished, and went into the center with Syaoran to do her crunches and stuff. Then she noticed the female population starin' at Syaoran and whispering about him, some like, "He's hot" or "Do you think he had a girlfriend?" and much more.
"Hey Syaoran, did you know the females in here are looking your way?" Meiling asked.
Syaoran glanced at her, not even looking at the girls, and continued doing his push-ups, then said. "So?"
"This will get her jealous!"
"She might not, there are other ways then jealously."
"Get a girlfriend."
"Same thing Meiling." Then Syaoran moved onto chin-ups.
"I'm tryin'"
"S'okay, I'll wait."
"For how long?"
"Just shut-up Meiling."
*************************************************************************
Sakura had been starin' at the two cousins wondering what they were talking about. Then Fei interrupted her.
"Ready?"
"For what?"
"Silly, the soccer game."
"Oh, hai, yeah!" Sakura was so oblivious that she zoned-out while talking to Fei. Then she noticed the girls and how they had all their eyes on Syaoran, looking at his muscles. They can have him, I don't care............ Then the whole group gathering with the couch to play their 'minigame' of soccer.
Mr. Jubei started to talk again. " Y'all will play two on two with another group, and will do a tournament for a reward, Okay, the teams are: Kinomoto and Wong, F! Zaug and Hung! Okaida and Takashi! Tasua and Kinada! Li and Li!" And he said so more names. Everyone played well until the next two and last teams played."Li and Li, Kinomoto and Wong, F. come and play. Class, after this, we'll play the semi-finals tomorrow." The two teams went into the center and got ready.
"Ready to win this, Meiling?" Syaoran asked her, while smirking.
"Sure, just don't ruff them up to hard, you can do that at try-outs after school."
"I'll try." Then the couch dropped the ball, and Syaoran with super-speed from all the training got the ball and was making it fast the the opposing net and struck a goal, leaving every one astounded, even Sakura. That was fast, it was like he used the Dash, he has improved...... The game raged on, Syaoran and Meiling making many goal, and finally it was over the score was 24-2. Then the couch let them change and then go to lunch. Sakura ran up to him on the way to his locker.
"Nice game Li-kun." Sakura said all cheery. I hope we can still be friends..........
"Arigato, Kinomoto-san, you did well." He said in a monotone voice and had his emotionless mask on. "I'm going to Lunch, Ja-ne Kinomoto." Then he walked up to Meiling and they left towards the lunch room, leaving a sad Cherry Blossom in the hall.
****************************************************************************
After grabbing their homemade lunches from their lockers which happened to be next to one another, Syaoran and Meiling made their way outside to sit under a cherry blossom. When they found the right one, they decided in would be their hang out. So, they ate the contents and talked.
"So have has school been for you?" Meiling asked.
"Not bad, had much fun in PE though." Syaoran replied nonchalantly.
"Mine's not bad. Did you know there is a dance coming up soon?"
"No, and I don't' care. You sound like Tomoyo."
"You know, they go to another school?"
"Good, I don't need the evil boy here anyway, and that dreaded camera........"
"I heard they were going to transfer....."
"Hope not."
"It'll be fun. We still have 4 hours left." Then Meiling saw some giggling girls heading their way... What they want? Where is Sakura? She hadn't seen Sakura, and still couldn't find her.
One of the girls, a shoulder-length black hair girl and blue eyes walked right over to Syaoran. "Hi, my name is Jelila Okaiwa." Syaoran acknowledge her. "Syaoran Li." They had a small talk, Syaoran not caring much.
"Who's that?"
"My cousin Meiling."
"Oh, so, you have a good day.":
"Hai, Arigato."
"So, I'll see you around?"
"Sure." The group left, Jelila being the leader, and you could hear them whisper, "He's the strong, silent type!" and "I wish he go to the dance with me...." and much more. Finally, lunch had ended and they returned to their boring lecturing. Sakura though went last, noticing the 'little' talk........ What's with that? Does he like her? Why do I care? I want to be is friend, but I want to ignore him, too.........
School went on, and then finally in ended. Students went to their lockers to go home or elsewhere.................
