AN: This chapter is about Sakura's first day at her high school, mainly introducing her to her friends and Syaoran so there is not much S+S stuff going on in this chapter. The rest of the story will have little bits S+S fluff of what happens during the years leading up to Year 12.

Umm.this is NOT a fic on the lines of the movie "Save The Last Dance" so don't think it'll be.

Also thank you for reviewing the Prologue and Introduction even though I haven't even started. Thank you!!!

Well here it goes.enjoy!!!

Save The Last Dance For Me

Chapter 1 - The First Day

Sakura's Day

"Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god!!!" yelled a young slim Japanese girl, rushing around her bedroom. "Where is my uniform?!?! I left in here just last night after." hearing a chuckle a the door way, the 13 year old Kinomoto Sakura stopped yelling and turned to find her brother bent over with laughter.

"May I ask what is so funny Touya?"

"Have.you.checked.behind.the.door?" replied the 18 year old between gasps.

"Of course!!! Do you think I am such an idiot.?" And to Sakura's horror, behind her bedroom door was a neatly ironed Willetton High School maroon skirt, light blue blouse and a marron and blue striped tie hung on hangers. Trying to suppress his amusement, Touya offered to drive Sakura to school as she was running behind schedule.

"Oh thank you!!! Thank you! I'll repay you. Anything you want me to do I'll do it! I'll wash you car, clean your room, I'll."

"Just put on your uniform and stop blabbing."

As Sakura entered the gates at Willetton High School she was overwhelmed with year 9 students rushing around and hugging friends they haven't seen for 2 months. Sakura walked towards the year Coordinator Mrs Jones to get her timetable, when a blonde shapely girl knocked into her.

"What do you think you are doing?! Watch where you're going," yelled the girl and stalked off.

Sakura taking no notice of the mean girl received her timetable from Mrs Jones and went to her first class, Social Studies. Arriving at the classroom, Sakura noticed only 3 other people there, a Japanese girl and two Chinese boys. Standing a little away from the two Sakura started to take out her Lord Of The Rings file out.

"Is that a Lord Of The Rings file?" the Japanese girl rushed over, pulling one of the Chinese boys with her. "I love Aragorn! He is soooo cool!" Seeing Sakura's surprised expression, the girl introduced herself, "I'm Daidouji Tomoyo and this is my boyfriend Eriol Hiiragizawa. Over there is Li Syaoran."

Sakura introduced herself. "I'm Kinomoto Sakura. I absolutely love Legolas! You know when he slides down the stairs in the Two Towers? That is just the coolest!"

Eriol and Syaoran rolled their eyes at each other, both feeling slightly jealous. Trying to pay back at Tomoyo, Eriol exclaimed, "Those two suck! Know you know Hermione from Harry Potter? Well she's smart and pretty! Beat that!"

"Then why don't you go out with her then!"

Triumphant in making Tomoyo jealous as well, Eriol took his chance and put his arms around her, "Aw Tomoyo! You know there is no one else in the world, including movie stars that could ever replace you."

Syaoran cried out, "What is wrong with me? Aren't I good enough for a gal? If Eriol can get one, why can't I?"

Exasperated with Syaoran, Eriol pummelled him to the ground, with a disgusted Tomoyo and Sakura looking on.

At recess Tomoyo introduced Sakura to her group of friends. "Those two Chinese girls on the limestone are Amanda Ho and Syaoran's cousin, Li Meilin. Over there on the green bench are Masumi Kurosawa, Shaun Illingworth and Kellie Western. Everyone this is Kinomoto Sakura."

Sitting herself on the green bench, Sakura found herself talking to Masumi, Kellie and Shaun.

"Do you know any year 10's? Do you know Rick?" asked Kellie in excitement.

"Umm no. I just."

"You haven't? Just look for the hottest red head in year10."

"SHUT UP KELLIE!" shouted Amanda from the bench. Explaining to Sakura, "Ever since she saw this guy Rick in the holidays, she has been talking about how good looking he is. Personally I think he is ugly."

"Ricky boy, Ricky boy, Ricky boy!!!" chanted Shaun.

"Shut up." Feeling slightly dejected Kellie walked off with Meilin to get a drink.

"God she never shuts up about him," exclaimed Amanda, joining in the conversation. "Don't think we all hate each other when we tease. We are all used to it." Amanda explained to Sakura that Tomoyo, Eriol, Syaoran, Kellie, Shaun, Meilin and herself had been friends since primary school. Masumi was an overseas student and a family friend of Tomoyo's and it was her first time in Australia.

Remembering the girl that had bumped into that earlier that day, Sakura asked Tomoyo who was across the bench from her, if she knew who that was. "That girl is Jane Smith. She is really mean." Tomoyo pointed towards the big group of boys and girls that were about 30 meters away. "Jane is in that group."

Moving on to a new discussion topic, Sakura found out that Masumi was in her English, Maths and Japanese class. As Maths was next on Sakura's timetable, the two walked to the class chatting away like best friends. When they got there, to their dismay, Jane was standing there talking to one of her friends like a steam engine. Jane noticed that they were staring and immediately insulted them.

"What are you looking at? Just because you don't have friends doesn't mean you can stare at mine!" she attacked.

Choosing to ignore the comment, Masumi said, "Told you she was a real meany."

Sakura glanced over at Jane in disgust, as so far everyone she had met in Willetton High was really nice. Pulling out their workbooks, Masumi and Sakura got to work.

At lunch Sakura observed Syaoran and Eriol trying to keep Shaun from getting his World Industries visor back from them. Shaun pissed off with the game, he pushed Syaoran to get it back and Syaoran banged into Sakura.

"Oh sorry Sakura," said Syaoran. "Shaun was being an idiot and pushed me. Go bash him up for me." Casting a glare in Shaun's direction, Syaoran sat next to her.

Looking at Syaoran, face-to-face Sakura blushed. Regaining her composure, she joked, "Yeah right. I'll use my kung fu skills and knock him out, just because he shoved you!"

"You do kung fu? Sweet! How long?"

"Umm bout 3 years. You?"

"Me? Well my uncle has trained me since I could stand."

"Oy Syaoran! Stop flirting and showing off and come to the front and play Bay Blades," called Eriol.

"Yeah, yeah hang on. Umm got to go sorry " Syaoran got up and ran after Eriol.

"Hey Sakura," Kellie sat down next to her. "Even though I've known him for ages, I must say he is so unpredictable. One side goes around and bashes up people and the other one that's sensitive."

Thinking Kellie was talking about Rick, Sakura answered, "I haven't seen him yet."

"I mean Syaoran. Don't you reckon he's cute? I mean I like one guy but if there wasn't a Rick I might go for Syaoran."

Sakura blushed and mumbled something.

Kellie raised an eyebrow put didn't push the subject as Meilin sat down as well.

"On her way home, Sakura was daydreaming (again!) when someone tapped on her sharply on her shoulder. "Eh?" Sakura snapped back to reality and tripped over a bump. She forwards and found herself in the arms of an amber eyed Syaoran.

"Day dreaming again Sakura?" said Syaoran with an amused look on his face.

Quickly getting releasing herself out of his hold. "Yeah, uhh daydreaming. I uh do uh that uh a lot uh."

"See ya tomorrow then. I'll leave you to daydream."

Not having the guts to ask him to stay with her, Sakura walked home by herself. When she got home, Touya was already there.

"Hey. How was your first day?" asked Touya.

"Uhh, it was interesting. Quite comfy actually." realising what she just said, Sakura blushed and rushed upstairs, leaving Touya looking questioningly after her.
