Ohayo gozaimasu!
Long time no write, ne? Sorry I've been taking longer to update; summer has officially reached its "not so boring-ness" period, plus, there was that vacation, wasn't there? Gomen ne, gomen ne!
I don't think I will write "Follow Your Dreams" until after I finish this ficcie; I'm not that good at multi-tasking (is that what you would call it 0.o?). Unless it comes to eating and watching TV ^-^!
I've said it before, I'll say it again; I don't own CCS.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sakura grinned cheerfully as she gulped down the rest of her orange juice.
"Well, I'm off to school! Bye, 'Tou-chan (nickname for brother)!"
Touya glanced at her warily. When had she ever called him 'Tou-chan? And whatever happened to her gloomy mood? It was impossible to see any traces of her depression yesterday. He smiled secretly. He shouldn't have been so worried about her yesterday, after all, his sister always bounced back all right before.
"Sayonara (Bye), kaijuu (monster)!" Touya looked for a reaction in Sakura, ready to leap aside in case a flying foot came his way. He waited. 3...2...1...Then, he realized the awaited stomp was not going to come. Touya smirked.
"Yes...two times I got away scot-free!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Ohayo (hello) Rika-chan!" Sakura grinned at her friend as she flew past. She radiated an air of happiness and bouncy energy.
Astonished, Rika watched her zoom by, wondering what Sakura ate for breakfast that morning, managing an amazed smile and a small wave.
"Chiharu-chan, ohayo!"
"Ohayo..." Chiharu trailed off as Sakura rolled right past her. She, like Rika, stared as Sakura's speedily retreating form, eyes wide.
"Ohayo gozaimasu, Naoko-chan!" Sakura beamed, her smile reaching from ear to ear.
"Ohayo, Sakura-chan! Why so genki today?" Naoko smiled, then realized Sakura had rocketed away. Smiling inwardly, Naoko headed towards Rika and Chiharu, who had already grouped together.
"Wonder what happened?" Chiharu was saying as she approached them.
"I dunno. Maybe she did really well on an exam?"
Chiharu rolled her eyes, laughing at her studious friend. "No, that's not it. School hasn't even started yet...Maybe she finally achieved a secret goal of hers?"
"Maybe, but I don't think that's it."
"Oh, Naoko-chan, ohayo!" Naoko smiled as her friends both greeted her cheerfully.
"Sakura-chan isn't all that stressed out about school, and she's not one to hide things from her friends unless she thinks they would be hurt, especially not her goals. You guys are probably thinking of yourselves, what with Rika, who would love to be a perfect student, and Chiharu, who desperately wants to stop Yamazaki-kun from lying. Yes, Chiharu, we all know about that," Naoko added with a slight smile, as she noticed Chiharu's astonished look.
"Then what do YOU think is the problem?" Rika asked, curious.
"It's definitely because...she finally got a rare, collector's edition of Dragons in the Sky*, Volume VI!!!!" Naoko's glasses gleamed as she thought of how happy she would be to have such a rare fantasy book.
Chiharu and Rika both sweat-dropped.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sakura was still giddy from Syaoran's phone call last night as she approached her best friend, Tomoyo. As she came closer, she began to have some doubts. Would it be alright for her to tell Tomoyo that her boyfriend had asked her out, albeit only a friendly date?
"Sakura-chan, ohayo!" Tomoyo's smiling face popped her thoughts.
"Oh, Tomoyo-chan! Ohayo!" Sakura tried to keep her smile from spreading too wide. No matter what she said to Tomoyo, the truth would remain: she was going out with Syaoran to the carnival!
As Sakura tried to keep herself from smiling, Tomoyo tried to keep her smile pasted on. Remembering last night's happenings, where she revealed everything to Eriol, she wanted to cry. Eriol had said he loved her. Before, she was unsure of who she loved, but now the answer was clear. She loved Eriol, not Syaoran. But no matter what, she would always be on Sakura's side, even against her own emotions.
Tomoyo sighed, accidentally letting her smile slip. Sakura was babbling on about going to some carnival or other with Syaoran.
Sakura stopped talking as she gazed into Tomoyo's face. She seemed to be lost in her thoughts. Tomoyo looked melancholy, as if she were about to cry. Sakura berated herself. She was now also in turmoil. What could she do? She didn't want to make Tomoyo unhappy, but she knew she'd go crazy if she saw Tomoyo and Syaoran together.
The school bell rang, making both girls start, then smile at each other falsely. Unbeknownst to both of them, they were both thinking the same thing;
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As class began, Eriol sat, thinking, in his chair.
Recalling last night's revelations, he sighed. So, Sakura loves him? He didn't really think so, but Tomoyo probably knew better than him, anyways. Eriol immediately took back his mean thought, thankful he didn't say it aloud. Eriol didn't know what to do.
"If I don't date Sakura-chan, Tomoyo-chan would be very angry at me, and there goes my chance with her, but if I do date Sakura-chan, Tomoyo-chan and I wouldn't be able to be together, anyways..." Eriol sighed.
"What's this about dating Sakura-chan?"
Eriol whipped his head around, seeing Syaoran. "Don't you know you shouldn't listen in on other people?"
"Don't you know you shouldn't talk to yourself out loud, in public?" Syaoran teased.
Syaoran was in a strangely good mood today. Probably because he would get to spend some time with his best friend, Sakura. He missed seeing her cute face, especially when she was excited or happy. He missed the way she stuck out her tongue when she was in concentration, the way her laughter rings through the air.
Wait, what was he thinking? He should be missing Tomoyo, and her...her...her beauty? Syaoran was slightly uncomfortable because he was unable to recall his girlfriend's qualities, but he dismissed it. After all, he and Tomoyo had a long time to get to know each other's traits and quirks.
Eriol growled at him, unable to think of a comeback.
Syaoran suddenly had an idea. "Hey, if you're going out with Saku-chan, we should have some double-dates! I mean, Saku-chan and Tomoyo-chan are best friends, and we're pretty good buds, as well."
"Wait," Eriol interrupted, "I'm not dating Sakura-chan!"
"Oh," Syaoran winked at him. "You're still trying to confess, huh? Well, you can confess to her on our double date!"
Eriol tried to say something, but Syaoran continued talking.
"We could go to the carnival together! I was planning on taking Sakura as a thank you for...for helping me out all these years. You and Tomoyo could come too, and we could just make it a double date!" Syaoran wanted to be alone with Sakura, but he was in such a good mood, he wanted to help out Eriol. And he could still spend some time with Sakura, as well.
Eriol was prepared to decline, but then had a thought. "Alright, I'll come."
"Great!" Syaoran smiled, oblivious to everything going on, including Sakura's love for him, Tomoyo's love for Eriol and needless consideration for Sakura, and Eriol's emotional restraints.

*I made up this name, but if it actually is the name of a real book, gomen ne! That doesn't belong to me either!
Well, I'll make this author's note short, so I can update sooner. Wow, I'm such a slacker, I haven't written for almost 2 weeks!
Okay, no more small talk, I write, you read and review, deal? See ya!
