Chapter 6: A Refined Tomoyo? (not really related)
Sakura tried to keep up her smiling face and the uneasy feeling of Syaoran's right hand casually drape at her slim waist to herself. It sent shivers to her whole body. even butterflies in her stomach and she didn't like what she's feeling one bit. 'At least he's not some perverted moron taking advantage of me.' She thought.
She breathed a sigh of relief as the encountered with Josh and Stacey ended when the firs bell rang to warn the students to get to their respective classes.
"Hope we'll see each other soon. You know, with all the people in the club and all." Josh said. Glaring at Syaoran's direction, he seemed to be getting very pissed about Sakura moving along with her life just fine without HIM and he hated it with every ounce of his being. Call it male ego.
He was left there in the hallway with his slut of a girlfriend staring at the HAPPY couple in front of him, his ex-girlfriend that he just dumped days ago. He grimaced at her so-called girlfriend, Stacey and what a fool she's been making herself out around that bastard foreign exchange student, Syaoran. Making those silly puppy dog eyes at his retreating back. 'Oh fuck.'
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-
Sakura sigh in relief and started breathing normally again when she realized that she'd been holding her breath the moment she had an encountered with Josh. She didn't seem to mind the lingering hand of Syaoran who smiled at how they fit perfectly together.
He pitied Josh for what a fool he'd been for dumping a sweet, beautiful, caring, loving and the long lists goes on of her good qualities. He instinctively tightened his hold on Sakura's waist as he remembered what a bastard Josh really is.
Sakura was brought back to the present by the sudden pressure on the part of her waist. 'Wait a minute.' She felt the fingers that lay comfortably on top of her stomach. She suddenly felt the urge to smack the hell out of the owner of those fingers when she noticed the whistling and the cat calls of her classmates and the not so welcomed presence of their professor who was at the edge of getting mad because of the noise their class created.
Instead of getting mad, as Sakura expected, the teacher gave a wink in their direction and ushered them to their seats. The teacher found it quite amusing that two students would quarrel one moment and in another instant be all that lovey dovey. Of course in the teacher's point of view, being a literature professor and all, he couldn't seem to separate reality from fiction.
"Settle down now class." He couldn't help himself smile, his knowing-too- well smile at the sight the couple in front of him presented. He seemed to have eyes for students who would surely be perfect for each other even if they both weren't aware for the moment.
"Syaoran, this is all your fault. Now our teacher is giving us THAT goofy smile." Sakura mumbled. "I don't want him to get the wrong idea about what he saw earlier." She gave him her 'don't argue with me, you know I'm right' look as she quickly went back to her seat.
"Hey, it wasn't that bad. At least, praised the Lord, he's not angry with us." He deliberately leaned over his chair so he could whisper those words for Sakura's ears only. Sakura returned it with a scowl, which makes her more adorable in Syaoran's opinion.
*-*-*-*-*-*-* Syaoran *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Literature subject was quite boring with the monotone voices of his classmates reading the texts. It makes him drift to sleep so he was doing himself a favor by doing an advance reading, zoning out the not-so pleasant sounds coming from the people around him. He liked reading the texts to himself than having to follow the tone of voice his classmates produced that makes him think of sleeping.
The speaker announcing that students were needed to go to the dean's office broke his silent reading. Getting the gist of the message, he righteously defended himself. 'It's not like I've done something wrong for me to be called.', knowing he's just a new student and a foreign transferee for that matter. Ignoring the announcement heard, he went back to reading.
". Repeating the announcement. Calling Mr. Eriol Hiirigizawa and Mr. Syaoran Li, you are needed in the dean's office immediately." Emphasizing the names of the persons who were to report at once.
'What the.?' He froze and almost dropped the book he's been holding.
His seatmate, fearing for his classmate's lack of response, nudge him to confirm his suspicions that what he just heard is not just a pigment of his imagination, thinking that he must have dozed off or been daydreaming inside class.
He slowly rose in his seat and excused himself from the professor.
'That was weird.' Sakura thought. 'Why would Eriol and Syaoran be called at the same time?' Syaoran is a mischievous brat that attracts trouble. It was no wonder he would be called. She guessed he'd get in a mess sooner or later. But good old Eriol, that was another story. He's sweet and caring, the nice boy type that seemed to be goodie-two-shoes. 'I wonder what they got themselves into.'
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Eriol and Syaoran met at the front of the dean's office with the same puzzled look in their cute faces (I couldn't help it, they really are kawaii) and silently gestured for the other to see what they were called for.
"Ah good morning Mr. Hiirigizawa and Mr. Li." The Dean greeted them as she pointed to the seats in front of her. "Please do make yourselves comfortable. I'm expecting a guest from Hong Kong and I know both of you would be delighted to see her again"
"Her?" Eriol said, voicing out the silent question that's been bothering Syaoran as well.
'Please don't tell me she's my sister. Please don't tell me she's my sister.' Syaoran fervently wished. What will happen to his life now? First Eriol, and now his sister. It would ruin everything he so desired for, a perfectly quiet and independent life of his own. He would be like a dog, following orders from one of his older sisters. Remembering the bad days when he had to endure the bullying and the teasing of his sisters.
'Oh God. Why is this happening to me? Breathe Syaoran, it's not as bad as it sounds. Don't be that pessimistic.' His mind reprimanded him. 'No! It's really bad. That's my sister we're talking about? What am I gonna do? Oh no. What a bugger?'
Shaking his head to block those awful memories, he repeated quietly his mantra. 'She's not my sister. She's not my sister.'
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Well. that's all I can do for now. Again sorry for the late update and the short chappie. My subjects are killing me. Because I haven't updated for quite awhile. (people glaring daggers at my direction) All right, for about 7 long months so I decided to continue this chapter. Enjoy! This is my belated gift for all of you this Christmas. I hope you like it.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
"Syaoran-kun." A raven girl burst from the door and enveloped him with a big bear hug. "I missed you so much." She said, wiping out some imaginary tears in her eyes. "Why didn't you share your idea of being a transfer student? You know I would be glad to join you on your little adventure." She admonished, as if she's scolding a younger boy having been caught of getting candy from a jar.
"Hey, be careful with the hair." He uttered jokingly, relief flooding his senses. Returning the hug given to him. 'At least, she's more tolerable than my sisters.'
"Meilin, have you forgotten you dear cousin Eriol." He spoke giving a friendly smile and a welcoming hug to his cousin.
"Oh Eriol, of course I missed you too." 'But not as much as I missed Syaoran' Meilin mussed as an after thought, looking at Syaoran lovingly.
'Here we go again. Like good old days.' Syaoran sighed.
"Well, since you've been reacquainted again, which I'm happy about, I'd like to give the rest of the hours to yourselves and to tour your cousin in this exquisite university. After lunch, you may go back to your classes." Directing her gaze at Meilin, she stated, "Ms. Li will be having the same classes as you Mr. Li. I hope all of you will have a nice day."
They each bid Mrs. Kirisaki short farewells and set to the task on hand.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Lunchtime was such a chaotic one. As usual, many students ran back and forth, getting in line and racing to save tables for their group.
Sakura and Tomoyo sat at their favorite spot in the cafeteria, near a window that outlook a very beautiful Cherry blossom tree.
"What do you think happened to Eriol-kun and Syaoran-kun? They haven't returned to their class since the announcement earlier." Toomoyo said worriedly. 'I hope Eriol is just fine.' She sighed, opening her brown paper bag full of pastries. It seemed her appetite for today was lost.
"Ah don't worry too much about them, they're grown up man, especially Eriol." Biting a huge portion of her Bacon, Cheese and Mushroom Burger made by her dear daddy. "I know for a fact that he wouldn't get into trouble. (chomp) But Syaoran is a different story. (chomp) He seems to attract trouble here and there after all. (chomp) with his big mouth and. (chomp) obnoxious personality." Chibi-Sakura stated matter-of-factly in between chewing her food.
"Kawaii!!! Matte, hold that pose for me." Tomoyo exclaimed bringing out her camcorder out of nowhere. It made her really happy and forgot all her problems just by the sight of her cute precious friend and cousin.
Sakura sweat dropped. "hehehe."
"He's really not that bad." Tomoyo murmured.
"Who?"
"Syaoran. He's good at sports and he excels at academics too. But I won't let him beat me at the latter part. Hohoho." Tomoyo boasted making her trademark laugh but instantly stop when she caught sight of Eriol.
Sakura snorted.
"Hey Ms. Grumpy. Pigging yourself with the food I see."
Sakura swallowed the last bit of food she'd been gnawing and glare at the direction of Syaoran.
"I'm fine with the way I eat. Thank you very much." Being kind of childish, she sticks her tongue out and continued her dining, not bothered for a bit for the interruption.
"Care to join us." Tomoyo invited, peeking out from her film making and gesturing at the vacant seats in their table, not forgetting proper manners.
"Hey." Sakura exclaimed when Syaoran easily slide to her side.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Having walked around the campus and reminiscing the past, at least that was what his cousin was blabbering about for what seemed like hours. Syaoran's stomach growled, reminding him that time flies and it's already lunchtime. His mind was set to their next destination. the cafeteria.
It must be his luck kicking in after a series of bad lucks; his favorite pastime was also there. Sakura Kinomoto was within reached. Not that he had taken a secret liking for her. Er. No. Maybe a little. but that's not the point here. Don't get crazy ideas on your mind. He's just very fond of getting under her nerves. He could almost brag about his expertise in teasing Sakura.
As if on instincts, words flew out of his mouth at her proximity. "Hey Ms. Grumpy. Pigging yourself with the food I see." He smirked as he led the way to Sakura's table.
Sakura swallowed the last bit of food she'd been gnawing and glare his direction.
"I'm fine with the way I eat. Thank you very much." The girl said, sticking her little pink tongue out to him and continuing eating her burger.
He couldn't help himself but smile at the childish behavior of Sakura. 'She looks more gorgeous when she's mad.'
"Care to join us." Tomoyo invited, peeking out from the camcorder, obviously busy recording Sakura's memorable moment.
"Hey." Sakura exclaimed when Syaoran easily slide to her side.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
"Sakura-chan, wait till you see the clothes I designed for you. You'll look 100% kawaii!!!." The girl holding the small box beeping with red light stated happily, picturing the outcome of the dress on her appealing cousin.
Sakura turned her head from Tomoyo, laughing softly her uneasiness.
"Nani? Anou. Eriol. You haven't introduced yet to us your friend." Sakura chided while to she took a glimpse at the raven hair girl as one of her newest acquaintance sat at pair sat at there table.
"Hi, my name's Meilin Li from Hong Kong." Meilin introduced herself good- naturedly. "Thank you for being friendly with Syaoran and Eriol." She bowed her head. Meilin didn't like it one bit when her darling cousin Syaoran was continuously teasing or was that flirting with the honey brown hair girl. Call it overprotectiveness.
"Meilin, I would like you to meet Sakura Kinomoto and Tomoyo Daidouji." Eriol said, extending a hand toward the two girls.
"Nice to meet you, Meilin." The aforementioned girls greeted in unison.
"So Meilin. We have a gig this evening. Wanna join us?." Eriol paused, "If its okay for the both of you?" He turned towards his other friends.
"We'll love it if you join us." Tomoyo replied with a refined laugh but frowned suddenly as a problem crossed her mind. "But who's going to be her partner?" Tomoyo thought aloud.
"Mou, that is a problem." Sakura considered the question and went to thinking mode (a.k.a. pointing her index finger at her chin as small dots float in her head).
Syaoran just sighed and patted Sakura's hair as she attempted to swat the offending hand. "Poor baby. Thinking of hard things is just not you."
"Shut up, will you." Sakura grumbled struggling to get back to her previous train of thoughts when she successfully whack the said hand.
Meilin sweat dropped and flailed her hands at her face, "It's no problem really." But was interrupted by Sakura, who hit her left hand with her other that was closed, and spoke. "I know who wants to go there with us." She looked at the other occupants of the table, ".willingly." an evil glint hovering her emerald eyes.
"That's great now we can be even." Tomoyo cheered.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Preview of the next chapter:
"Hey GAKI what are you doing here?" The man asked again, his eyes clearly showing the annoyance he felt for the guy in front of him.
"Why do you care?" Syaoran spat angrily. Just looking at Sakura's brother, Touya, could really put him to the edge.
"Nothing really, I'm just wondering why your fat ass is in front of our house." Touya rolled his eyes in authentic irritation. And his answer was a quick jab at his side and a death glare from his imouto that seemed to be screaming. 'behave'.
Rolling his eyes to the heaven (which he seem to have been doing a lot lately). "Sheeeesssshhhhh. Is it a crime to ask in the world all ready?."
And here is a chap who he only knew a few days confronting him.
Author's Note: Thanks for all those people who supported me, all those heart whelming reviews and those who have the kindness to send me the lyrics of the song 'Fighter'. Don't worry I might be using it on the next chap.. So stay tune. Please review.
