A Rose by Any Other Name Chapter 6 Just Like Before
"La, la, la" sang Sakura as she skipped down the hard pavement with Tomoyo close by.
"You know? I missed my old self." Sakura said thoughtfully to Tomoyo
"We all did Sakura" Tomoyo whispered, she didn't want to pry but she couldn't help herself "what made you decide to change anyways?"
Sakura stopped skipping and singing then spun to face Tomoyo, a serious expression plastering her happy one. Then a split second later she grinned "well you know? cant stay the same forever, people need change!" Sakura giggled as she continued skipping and singing with a very confused Tomoyo trailing her.
They arrived at school receiving stares. No one could believe what they saw. It was Sakura before their very own eyes, dressed like any other girl.
Chiharu was glowing with happiness as she squeezed Yamazaki. "I told you! I told you!" she kept whispering to him.
Sakura slowly walked up to Chiharu and Yamazaki
"Um. Mihara-san?"
Chiharu winced at her calling her by her last name "yes?"
Sakura looked around and decided that they had too much of an audience "well could you come to the roof top with me?" (AN: Some lucky schools in difference countries have rooftops. ooo soo jealous!)
"um. sure."
Sakura began walking towards the stairs as Chiharu slowly followed and just as Yamazaki was going to follow too, Tomoyo held him back.
"Daidoji-san?" Yamazaki said with strain in his voice
"It's okay Yamazaki, I think they need sometime alone."
Yamazaki nodded and just looked back at Sakura and Chiharu as they disappeared up the stairs.
(Rooftop)
...long silence..
Chiharu, feeling terribly uncomfortable with the silence said "so. uh. what did you want to talk about?"
Sakura suddenly pulled Chiharu into a huge hug. "I'm so sorry, I haven't been your friend at all! I didn't mean to make you so mad! I'm such a baka! I didn't mean you were a bad friend, I'm sorry! You're one of my best friends in the world and I'm sorry for hurting you so much. Will you ever forgive me?" Sakura asked as she sobbed into Chiharu's shoulder.
Chiharu's eyes softened *Now this is the Sakura I know* "Sakura-chan I wouldn't give the world for our friendship. I missed you Sakura and I'm just glad you're back." Chiharu said as she pulled Sakura into a tighter hug.
"You know? Let's go back to before your change and we'll pretend none of this happened. Okay?" Chiharu said cheerfully as she looked at Sakura
"Arigatou."
(Another Place at school)
As Syaoran arrived today everyone was talking about Sakura being different. He didn't catch all the details because he was too busy thinking of the horrible phone conversation he had with his 'fiancée.' *Gah! Why is she my fiancée? When did I ever say yes to the stupid engagement?*
Meiling could obviously tell there was something wrong with him because in all his morning classes she wouldn't stop asking. After a while she got bored of asking "so wtf is wrong with you today? and decided to revert to a new question.
"Have you seen Kinomoto-san today?"
He looked at Meiling stupidly "what about her?"
"Oh no reason" Meiling smiled mischievously.
*Oh crud. Meiling's hiding something again; whenever she does she always has that evil smile. I thought a bit, I wouldn't see her in class until after lunch but if I was lucky I could catch a glimpse of her at lunch.*
"Meiling if there is no reason then why are you asking?" Syaoran said angrily as he leaned over the chemistry table pouring liquids in Meiling's scribbled handwriting.
"Tell you later Syaoran, oh and your not suppose to mix that together it will e--"
BOOM!
"Told ya baka!" Meiling snickered as the teacher angrily lectured Syaoran for the rest of class.
(Lunch)
Sakura's change had done lots of good for Sakura. She was suddenly surrounded with friends and she was laughing. She felt so happy and she almost forgot all her sorrows. Everything was just like old times, before Touya's incident, before her life had seemed to fallen out of her grasp.
In the distance Syaoran watched in shock as she saw Sakura looking as normal as ever with so many friends surrounding her. *maybe there is still hope for me*
Tomoyo spotted Syaoran and whispered to Sakura that he was watching them. Sakura turned different shades of red and she told everyone to go find a spot to eat and that she would find them later.
With that Sakura started walking towards Syaoran.
Syaoran felt the blood drain from him as Sakura started walking towards her. *.I feel very uncomfortable all the sudden.*
"Hey Li-kun"
"Uh. Hey Kinomoto-san."
"Please call me Sakura" Sakura giggled feeling slightly uncomfortable
"Uh ok Sakura"
"Can I call you Syaoran-kun?"
"Sure."
"Great! Hey lets be friends again, okay? I missed you a lot." Sakura then couldn't hold it anymore and she cracked, tears spilled like a waterfall.
Syaoran just stared helplessly and automatically his arms went around her shoulders and comfort her.
Sakura looked at Syaoran who smiled and she smiled back knowing they could go back to before.
After Sakura and Syaoran realized how close they were, they quickly broke apart and both turned interesting shades of red.
"Um. do you want to come eat lunch with me?" Sakura asked as her blush turned brighter.
Syaoran smiled and gathered up his courage as he took Sakura's hand, walking happily towards everyone. Sakura stared at their linked hands and grinned.
Meanwhile; in the bushes behind them..
"Hohohoho! I, Tomoyo have caught another one of Sakura's precious moments on tape!"
"You never change do you Daidoji-san?" Meiling asked
"Not a chance!"
Cherryblossom419: Yay! I finished another chapter. No Miko. not yet anyways. muahahahaha! R&R!
