Chapter 3: Will He Forgive Me? Author: kroniC LiL kaijuu (new name;D) (The A.N.'s!!: Aiya...I edited this thing cuz at first I was in a rush. Yeah...I'M SORRY ABOUT YOUR REVIEWS!!._

Sakura peeked out from the creaked open door to English homeroom and walked in. She scooted her way to her chair and sat down. Suddenly, the door busted open and a very angry person stood in the doorway panting heavily.

"Sakura..." Tomoyo said angrily out of breath. Then, she started to make her way to Sakura-all the other students just froze and their eyes followed her every move. Sakura just sat there acting like she didn't even noticed that she walked in until Tomoyo came into view. "Oh! Hi, Tomoyo," Sakura greeted with a sheepish grin on her face.

Tomoyo had her eyes narrowed down at Sakura but after taking a deep breath, her face softened. "Look, Sakura, I understand that you feel that you don't have the courage to confront Syaoran after what happened." Tomoyo said, taking a seat in front of her and grasped her hands. "I'm totally with you, but you're gonna have to talk to him sooner or later...and don't ever ditch me like that again, okay?"

Sakura had an uncomfortable look on her face and was struggling a bit. "Tomoyo?" She asked.

" Yes?" Tomoyo grinned.

" You're squeezing my hands NUMB."

" I know--this is my revenge." Tomoyo said. " And if you ever...EVER do that again, you'll end up in a neck brace, kapito?"

" Ok." Sakura strained and let out a big sigh when Tomoyo let go. //Man, Tomoyo's stronger than she puts on. //

"Now class, let's take attendance..." Their English teacher said as she walked in.

Even though it class was starting, Sakura took this time to think.

// I can confront him. I can. All I have to do say sorry for what I did. I'm sure he'll forgive, right? Right! Aww...maybe I should go down on my knees and beg for forgiveness. Oh, God, maybe I can't confront him, I mean, if I were in his shoes I would be mad for a little while. WHAT AM I THINKING!!!! //

"Kinomoto?" The teacher called.

" STOP PRESSURING ME! III!!!!!!!!!! CAN'T!!!!!!!!!!!! DOOOOOOOOOOOOO IIIIIITTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Sakura screamed and drew attention to her.

" Ms. Kinomoto, a simple "present" is good enough for me." The teacher told her, which put the class in a giggle fit.

"Heheheh..." Sakura laughed nervously and sank in her chair. // I can't wait for this to all be over... //

xDDD

" You know, Sakura, I didn't know this thing was bothering you that much." Tomoyo said to Sakura in the hall going to the cafeteria.

" Well, now you know, and I've decided that I'm just gonna have to ignore him the whole day. I mean, we only have like...okay, he's in most of my classes but I can handle it." Sakura said.

" That's good," Tomoyo said a little unsure, " but how are you going to keep this up until the end of the year?"

"Good point," Sakura said putting her finger to her lips. "BUT IT'S THE ONLY PLAN I GOT-SO I'M GOING WITH IT!!!!" She said slamming her right fist into her left palm.

Tomoyo examined her friend's face during the pause and asked, " that hurt, didn't it?"

"Yeah it did," Sakura strained and cradled her hand in her other arm.

"Well, let's get going to Chemistry class." Tomoyo said guiding Sakura to the classroom.

@_@

"Class, do you know what time of the year it is?" The Chemistry professor asked the students.

" Wait, wait, I know this one!" A boy in front said searching for an answer. He opened his mouth and.

"Anyone ELSE?" The professor asked again but the class just stared at him. " Ok, FINE! It's the first of the 2nd semester-which means that it's time to switch partners!"

The whole class groaned as the professor happily went behind his desk to his book where he written down the new partners. "Okay, let's see..."

Tomoyo gasped and shook Sakura's arm, " OMIGOD what if you get Syaoran?!"

Sakura made a small squeal and whispered, " ah, damn, I never thought about that!!"

"Miyamura and Koishikawa." The professor said going through the list.

Sakura crossed her fingers and closed her eyes. // DON'T GIVE SYAORAN. DON'T GIVE SYAORAN. DON'T GIVE SYAORAN. DON'T GIVE SYAORAN. DON'T GIVE SYAORAN. DON'T GIVE SYAORAN!!! //

"Daidouji and Hiiragizawa."

" Aww, man." Tomoyo groaned and looked over to Eriol, who winked at her and blew her a kiss. When Tomoyo was going over to her new seat, she responded by giving him the finger.

" Ooh, I LOVE IT when you're mad." Eriol whispered to her and put his hand on her knee.

" If you value your life, you better get your hand off and PRONTO!!" Tomoyo muttered to him while keeping a bright smile on her face.

With that, Eriol immediately took off his hand and kept his hands to himself in fear of her.

" Uh...and Kinomoto and...Momoya."

// What?! // Sakura turned her head shrieked, "Yumi?!" Noticing the class's eyes were on her, she smiled at said, " great, Yumi."

" Isn't it though? But what's even better is that you not with her, but with Mr. Li."

" Huh?" Sakura said confused. // THAT'S WORSE!!!! //

" Yeah, I was just kidding, you." The professor laughed.

Syaoran was now coming her way and Sakura was looking more tense than ever.

// I was suppose to be ignoring Syaoran, but this, this is just plain evil! //

He dropped his bag by the chair and sat down.

Sakura noticed that he didn't even look at her and slouched in her chair. // He must really hate me... //

" Okay, now that that's settled, let's move on to our next lesson."

// Aw, man...what am I going to do? What should I do? Maybe I should apologize to him...but would he forgive me? Damn, what does that matter anyway, seeing how he ignored me; I don't think he'll be my friend anymore. This is all my fault. //

" Now, what I would like you to do is, with your partner and the ingredients you have, to make carbon dioxide."

"What? I wasn't paying attention." Sakura mumbled to herself and started panicking.

" Okay, Sakura." Syaoran said.

" Huh? What?!" Sakura jerked.

"You set up the equipment, okay?" Syaoran said.

" Ah...s-sure." She said getting a beaker and the stand out. // Aww, damn what do I do?// Then, she looked over to Tomoyo, who was right across, and was copying her set up until the professor came and blocked her view. " Damnit." She muttered.

"Sakura?" Syaoran said to her. " What's taking so long?"

"Uh...um..." She stammered.

"You weren't paying attention were you?" Syaoran said.

" Um.," Sakura said searching for a good lie but just ended up saying, " no."

Syaoran sighed and said, " alright, I'LL set up, then, and you just do whatever the book says, okay?"

" OK." Sakura answered.

When he was done, he started adding the ingredients. " Okay, Sakura. Add the last ingredient and we're done."

" Okay," Sakura said quietly and the wind blew in her face from the open window. She looked in the book and picked up a chemical. " Add the whole tube into the beaker." She read and poured everything.

" Wait, Sakura," Syaoran said grabbing her book and turning the page, "that was the wrong page. You just added the wrong chemical into there. The chemicals don't mix, but will cause a--"

Suddenly, there was a rumbling from their beaker.

" OH, NO!" Sakura shouted.

" EVERYONE TAKE COVER!!!!" The professor instructed.

But Sakura just sat there all scared.

Syaoran dived just in time and hid covered her from under the table. Green goop exploded from the beaker and a stench filled the room. //Syaoran is covering me...aww...DAMN DOES HE SMELL GOOD!!! //

" UGH!! EVERYONE EVACUATE THE ROOM!" The professor shouted and led everyone out. " As for you two," he said pointing at Sakura and Syaoran when they got out, " come here."

Sakura and Syaoran walked to the end of the hall where they had a talk with the teacher.

" What were you two thinking?!" The professor asked them as they kept their focus to the ground.

" S-sorry, Professor." Syaoran said. " I accidently spilled the wrong chemical in."

Sakura looked up at him in shock. //He's lying for me???// "NO! It was me, Professor, I wasn't paying attention and I didn't notice that I was looking at the wrong page and took the wrong ingredient. It had nothing to do with, Syaoran. Sorry." Sakura confessed.

" Why, Ms. Kinomoto. I would have expected better from you." The professor said looking at her, then Syaoran. " But, I'll let you two off on a warning, so we don't need to get the Principal involved with this."

They both brightened and said, " thank you, Professor." As they were about to turn, the professor's words stopped them.

" Just a minute there," the professor said, " there's still the matter of the mess in the lab. You two will be spending your lunch recess, cleaning the place."

Sakura's jaw dropped as the professor left them.

^_^

They did, indeed spend the whole lunch period cleaning, but they did not say a word to each other...until they were done.

"Phew," Syaoran said wiping his brow with his sleeve, " that was long."

" No shit," Sakura agreed and her tummy rumbled. // It's good that we're talking. //

They both heard it and laughed.

" Haha, we missed lunch, so I don't blame you." Syaoran said.

" Man, I could eat a whole box of pizza right about now." Sakura joked.

"Damn, you would look like cow after that." Syaoran laughed.

" I was kidding, you impotent pussy." Sakura pointed out, narrowing her eyes at him.

"Aren't you talking about yourself?" He comes backed.

"Why don't we put it to the test, you and me." Sakura challenged.

" Oh, you wanna fight me do you?" Syaoran asked her as she got into fighting stance. " Okay, bring it on!"

"Alrighty!" Sakura said as she charged at him, her fists clenched, and Syaoran grabbed both of her wrists with one hand and started tickling her with the other.

" Coochie coochie coo!!!" Syaoran laughed.

" NO FAIR!! ILLEGAL USE OF HANDS!!!" Sakura laughed trying to break free, which she did but only got out one of her hands, which was still closed. With the other, she twisted around his arm and grabbed it. Then, she used her knee to hit the back of his legs and pushed him down with her other closed hand.

" DAMN! Where did a girl like you learn to do something like this?" Syaoran asked straining.

"Ah, Tomoyo." She answered and with her closed hand, she held it over his head and poured left over goop from the explosion on his hair.

" Euw!!!" Syaoran said grossed out when she released him.

" But that, that was all me!" Sakura said happily.

"This is so gross." Syaoran said touching his gooey hair.

"Ah, you'll be alright. It comes right off with soap and water." Sakura assured him. // He looks so cute like that. //

" Okay, in that case," Syaoran said reaching in his hair and threw some goop in Sakura's hair as well.

" EUW!!! GROSS!!! DAMNIT SYAORAN!!!" Sakura yelled angrily. // This is so cruel. //

"Hey, you said it's comes off?" Syaoran laughed. "Well, I'm heading the locker room. We better be excuse for this. See ya!"

As was about to walk away, Sakura knew she better do something. "Syaoran!" // It just seems right. //

He turned and said, " yeah?"

"Uh...umm...I..." She stuttered looking at him straight in the eye and just said, " nevermind. See you later."

And he's gone.

"I couldn't do it..." Sakura muttered to herself. " How will I know if he forgave me for what I did?"

_

" Ah, finally a class that I can just sleep through and forget all my troubles--History!" Sakura said preparing to bore herself to sleep.

POOK!!!

// What the?! // A circular crumpled up paper had hit her head and landed on the side of her desk. Sakura started to open it and a small cupcake slid out of it. Then she noticed that something was written on it and read:

HEY, SLEEPING BEAUTY!

IT'S NOT A BOX OF PIZZA, BUT IT'S FOOD.
~SYAORAN

Sakura smiled to herself and continued to read.

P.S. YOU KNOW THAT I COULD NEVER STAY MAD AT YOU FOREVER. YOU'RE MY BEST FRIEND AND I KNOW WHAT YOU DID MEANT THAT YOU WERE JUST LOOKING OUT FOR ME, SO I FORGIVE YOU.

" YES!!!!" Sakura yelled, standing up. She noticed that she was bringing attention to herself again and sat back down. //HE FORGIVES ME!!!!//
