Chapter Four :: To Survive in School, Part A
"D…Did you just call Kinomoto…Sakura?!!" (AN: From last chappie)
Syaoran didn't say anything, but looked down at his feet, blushing furiously. Sakura looked up, and blushed as well.
"Syaoran-kun…called me Sakura at the beach…and I asked him if I could call him 'Syaoran-kun' in return and he said I could."
Meiling looked down at her feet, and ran out of the room. Tomoyo stood up calling, "Meiling, come back!"
"Hey—you still haven't answered my question. What card transformations?!" Hinato looked at Tomoyo suspiciously.
Tomoyo turned back to Syaoran. "I think you should go after her…" Syaoran looked up at her and exclaimed, "Why me?" Tomoyo glared at him. "She's your cousin after all."
Eriol who was silent though this whole scene, spoke up. "No, Li stay here. I'll go…" he glanced at Hinato. "With him."
Hinato started to protest, "H—hey! Stop dragging me, I want to stay here with my darling Saku—"
When they were out of the room, Tomoyo smiled sweetly at them. "So—you were saying Sakura?" she asked while holding up her video camera.
"Tomoyo!" Syaoran and Sakura yelled at the same time. Tomoyo sweatdropped. "Okay okay…no need to yell…"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Why—do I—have to go—with you??!!" Hinato was grumbling as Eriol was dragging him along.
Eriol's eyes glittered mischievously. "Oh—I think you will see why—very soon…"
Meling tried to shake off the tears, but they kept flowing. How??! How could her—her Syaoran do this to her?! She sighed and looked towards the ocean from the rock she was sitting on.
She then looked up quickly as she heard approaching footsteps. She prayed it wouldn't be Syaoran or Sakura and it turned out to be—Hinato. Wait a second. Hinato???!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Hinato wasn't in a very good mood himself that day. Well, it was okay, because he had gotten to meet Sakura…a dream come true. But then, he saw the look in her face when she looked at Syaoran and was sort of depressed. No mood at all to be comforting some arrogant girl like that—Meling.
He sat down dejectedly on the rock by Meling's side not looking at her, though hearing her silent sobs. "So, kind of a dandy day, isn't it?"
Meling looked up and glared at him. "Oh yes, just dandy, isn't it?" She then sighed and also added quietly, "Yes. Just dandy."
Hinato looked surprised to her quiet mood, expecting a loud and mean reply of some kind. She looked kinda cute when she was angry… Wait a sec…he wasn't falling for—Meling??!
Meling looked up at Hinato's face, an astonishing shade of bright red.
"What's the matter with you? Have you been baking in the sun too long? Your face is bright red."
Hinato blushed and turned around looking towards the ocean. The waves were so calm and tranquil…it seemed all too peaceful. What a nice town, he thought to himself. How lucky he was that he got to stay here for a week.
Meling looked wistfully at the sunset. Sure, Syaoran was the one that she still loved the most…but he loved someone else now…she suddenly burst into tears and leaned on whatever was closest—Hinato.
Hinato was surprised at Meiling, but he put one arm around her, feeling awkward. He patted her soft black hair, "Don't cry Meling, I'm sure Li loves you…in a different way."
Meling sniffled, "But the worst part is that I like Kinomoto…she's really nice and sweet! I can't ever hate her or Syaoran, even though a part of me wants too!"
Hinato just hugged her gently and whispered, "Don't worry, everything will be fine at the end. You'll see." (AN: Ahh…Hinato isn't that dim-witted now is he?)
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Hooooeeeeeeeeeeeeee!" A big crash and a bang could be heard upstairs at the Li apartment. "Does she always make this much noise every morning?" Syaoran muttered, while buttering his toast.
"I'm going to be late, I'm going to be late!" Sakura glanced around frantically searching for her ponytail ribbons, but remembered where she was.
"Oh yes…" She quickly scooped up two pink ribbons from her suitcase and tied her hair up into two small ponytails. She dressed into her school uniform in record time and rushed to the bathroom, Kero trailing after her.
"Sakura, you have to learn to be more organized! You can't run around like this every morning you know."
"And why not?" Sakura asked while trying to brush her teeth and clean her face at the same time.
Kero frowned thoughtfully. "Because you just can't!"
Sakura ran, almost toppled down the stairs and crashed into the kitchen. She composed herself and announced, "Good morning Wei, and Syaoran-kun. What are we having for breakfast?"
Wei started choking on his tea as he started to cough and stare at Sakura. "A—hem…did you call Syao—ermmmm…"
Syaoran grumbled about names and fuss and reached for another piece of toast. "We're having toast, Sakura." He informed her.
Wei, who had begun to stop coughing, choked on a piece of bread and drank down large amounts of tea. (Hehe, I know OOC…but this is MY story! ^_^)
"Lovely! Wei, are you okay?" Sakura asked as she sat down and started to butter her own piece of toast, relieved that she still had 15 minutes to spare.
As soon as Wei stopped coughing, he replied, "Ahh…oh yes Miss Sakura. I do believe Syaoran called you…Sakura?"
Syaoran blushed a deep crimson and Sakura giggled. "Hoooe…yes." She replied. Wei's eyes twinkled, "You know, he only calls his sisters, and Meiling by their first name. This is highly unusual."
Sakura changed into a pale pink and said quickly, "I'd better start leaving. Don't want to be late now, do we Syaoran? Ehh…now that I'm mentioning it, how DO you get to school? I usually roller blade."
"Either Wei takes me there or I walk." He said curtly. "Okay then, we'll walk for today then, since Dad said that my roller blades wouldn't fit inside by suitcase will all of my other stuff. Let's go!"
Syaoran was silent, the whole way to school, as Sakura hummed a tune that she had heard somewhere, but forgot the source.
She was secretly glancing at him every few seconds, but smiling the whole time.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Ohayo Sakura-chan." Tomoyo greeted her warmly. Her eyes sparkled as she added, "How was this morning?"
Meiling and Eriol were nearby as well, since Meiling was staying for the week. "Just dandy!" Sakura replied cheerfully.
Meiling felt a hint of surprise and blushed when she heard what Sakura had said.
"Dandy…" she whispered softly to herself. Eriol greeted her politely. "Did you say something Meiling?" "Oh…just mumbling to myself."
Eriol's eyes twinkled from beneath his glasses.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Sakura groaned as she struggled to keep up with Syaoran.
"Why do we have to be so early to every single class?" Luckily, she was already in all of Syaoran's classes, so they didn't have to change the schedule.
Syaoran didn't answer her, but kept heading towards the gym room. The gym teacher told them, "We're going outside for some basketball today, please change into your gym clothing."
Sakura changed into her pink t-shirt and white shorts, bordered by cherry blossoms. This was again, ANOTHER outfit designed by Tomoyo. She quickly put on white socks and sneakers and hurried after Tomoyo outside.
Syaoran looked up when Sakura came out and blushed fervently. She looked so beautiful, yet innocent and sweet. But she was a very good basketball player as well…
"Okay," the teacher began "Today, we are going to play doubles basketball. I know last week we did single, but this time, you will pair up with your partner for the project in class, and you will play against another team that I choose."
Syaoran sighed, but relieved to have such a good partner. Sakura came over, and giggled.
"Well, guess we are partners, huh Syaoran? Wonder who will we have to play against?"
Yamazaki and Chiharu headed over to them, and smiled. "Sakura, we're playing against you today, should be fun, hmm?" Chiharu grinned.
Yamazaki started to talk, "Did you know, that the sport of basketball actually originated from Egypt? They were really bored one day, and they took some cow leather…and invented the basketball!"
Chiharu growled at him, and started to drag him over to the court by his ear. "Lies! Lies I tell you!" she yelled.
Syaoran and Sakura sweatdropped, but Sakura giggled softly. "This will be fun!"

Hehehe, did you like this chapter? I turned it into two parts, since I was tired and didn't want to keep writing. Lazy, huh? Well, please R+R and tell me if you liked this chapter. Arigatou, and I bid thee all good night, since I'm tired, and it's almost 10:20 pm. Ah! Also, I'm starting a new fanfic soon. It's called The Destiny of Love, and another S+S fic. Stay tuned, okay? ^_^ ~~ Kinomoto Sakura
