CHAPTER TWO
Eriol Gets the Girl
The next day, Sakura went to school using her own car at last. Her beautiful white Porsche was all she needed to brighten her day, or so she thinks it would. She got her car on her parking space and climbed off then headed inside the school building. Something was weird though. People were rustling about, chattering things about something, or someone. Sakura became suspicious. What the heck was going on first thing in the morning?
~*~
"Sakura, did you hear?" Chiharu said excitedly the minute she saw me. I simply raised my eyebrow at her in confusion. "I can't believe it! Someone wants to ask you out! Guess who he is," Chiharu added without a slight loss of her energy. She was hyper, I could tell. Tomoyo walked up to us and was wondering why people were acting quite strangely as well.
"What's going on? The people are acting quite odd today," Tomoyo said.
"That's what I was just about to say! Rumor has it that Eriol wants to take Sakura on a date!" Chiharu finally got it out... wait a second here... What?!?!
"Did I just hear you correctly?" I retorted. "The lame-o's best bud wants to ask me out?" I tried to confirm it. This could not have been happening, could it? I didn't know why but what the heck was going on in this world these days? Hiiragizawa Eriol wants to ask me out then. So what? "Chiharu, you must be joking. That's crazy, you know. Besides, it's just another dumb rumor that's not even true," I added.
"I'm serious. The guy said it himself. He likes you. Everyone was talking about it just a while ago. Syaoran was totally against it but what could he do about it? It's his best friend he's talking to," Chiharu told us.
Chiharu flashback:
Eriol was walking through the corridors with a big smile on his face. Everyone figured something was up. When Eriol's gentle exterior shifts to either a grin or a big smile, something is definitely up. I was standing there watching him and Syaoran make a fuss about something. People were watching them as well so I decided to eavesdrop like all the others were doing so themselves.
"I think she's a really nice girl. Just leave me on my own. I have my own taste with women, you know," Eriol told Syaoran.
"Come on! You desperately need my help! You can't have feelings for that--that-- Kinimoto girl!" Syaoran exclaimed, obviously irritated by his friend's words. Everyone stared at them with mouths agape. "Look, you're my best bud and I won't let you get into Sakura! There are way better girls out there," Syaoran continued.
"What girls? I don't see even one of the girls you're talking about. That's the reason I'm going to ask her out," Eriol replied. Syaoran stood still in disbelief. People started to talk in whispers. What's with the whispering? It's so obvious that they're talking about Eriol and Sakura. Sheesh.
"No way! Sakura isn't pretty! She's just a full-fledged bitch!" Syaoran insisted making everyone stare at them badly.
"I'm going to judge her for myself alright? Come on. It's me and not you. I like her and so what? You're acting like you're actually-- jealous," Eriol said, causing Syaoran to pause. "Are you?" Eriol questioned him.
"Me? Jealous? Why should I be? Eriol, you've really gone overboard. I pity you for falling for 'her' of all people. Man, you're crazy!" Syaoran spoke up again.
"Well at least I know you DON'T have feelings for her as well. Good for both of us then. I will ask her out on a date and that's final. No one, not even you, can do anything about it," Eriol told him and started to walk by again.
End of Flashback.
"Sakura, don't you think he's sweet?" Tomoyo asked me, teasingly.
"Yeah, I think so too. But that Syaoran has really gone too far! Calling me a full-fledged bitch and all. He's so stupid! I wish he rots in hell," I replied, imagining that fat asshole's face. The nerve of that guy thinking he's the king of the world! Like woah, if he's the king of the world, I own the universe!
"You just might work things out with Eriol. You never know," Chiharu told me with a smile that said 'flirt'.
"It could happen. Well, let's just see it for ourselves," I said as I continued to head down the hall.
~*~
Damn Eriol. He's gone insane. How could he have feelings for Sakura? She's been getting in my nerves and then that's when Eriol start to like her?! Just my luck. I am SOOO happy for him... not! During class, I wasn't paying much attention to the damn teacher. I was looking at Sakura from behind. What could Eriol have seen in her? So maybe she is pretty and authentic. A class smarty-pants and guy-getter. What's so special about that? I just don't understand. Other girls are way nicer, way cooler and things like that. But what makes Sakura above them all?
At break times, I would see her with Tomoyo or Chiharu and Rika. She'd be so cheerful and damn, she's always smiling. If she weren't so friggin mad at me, I wouldn't be so friggin mad at her either. Why is she mad at me in the first place? Had I done something awful to her? I don't remember though. She's the one who's always yelling at me, telling me how stupid I am. Crazy girl doesn't know a thing about boys. Better leave her alone.
During dismissal, Eriol left me behind. What a great day I've been having! Of course not! This is just one of the fucking days I experience when nothing goes well at all. Dammit! Oh and here comes Sakura to make it really bad for me. And Eriol having a thing for little Ms. Cherry Blossom just makes it even worse. Maybe I should just give up. If Eriol wants her, let him have her. Let him realize his mistake on his own. That is the way of nature and no way I'm going to have to change that.
I went outside and saw a certain blue haired friend of mine talking to a certain auburn haired girl... alone. Out of mere curiosity, I decided to 'spy' on them. What could happen? And what would happen?
~*~
"Hello Sakura," Eriol greeted her.
"Oh hi!" Sakura said in return with a pretty smile on her face. She acted normally despite how crazy it was that morning, learning about Eriol's feelings. She tried to hide the faint shade of pink that tainted her delicate cheeks.
"Um... say Sakura?" Eriol started again, his voice rather different than from just a while ago.
"What is it?" Sakura asked. It was coming; she could tell. Her hands felt like they wanted to tremble but they didn't. Why was she so nervous? Even she couldn't trace it out.
"Listen, do you want to watch a movie or something tomorrow?" Eriol blurted it out. He had just asked her. Now, it was all upto Sakura. She could either turn him down or accept the date. Tomorrow was a Saturday, perfect weather, perfect date. Would she give in?
"That would be nice," came Sakura's bright answer.
Eriol smiled at her and said, "Great. So, I'll pick you up at seven then."
Sakura smiled back and nodded in agreement. With a loss of words, she bid him goodbye and went on her own way. She looked ahead, walking stiffly and rather tense. As she left the school grounds, her body let her go and finally relaxed. She sighed and walked to the parking lot. She pulled the keys from her pocket and climbed in her Porsche. 'Eriol's a nice guy. I'm glad he asked me out,' she admitted to herself before she impelled her car through the road, ignoring the other drivers. She laughed at what she just did and soon got over it. She had gone home afterwards.
As Sakura got home, she left the car by the driveway and marched up the stairs to the comforts of her bedroom. Quick as a flash, she removed her shoes and hurled her self on bed. It had been yet another damn day in school. But as luck would have it, tomorrow was finally a weekend, a perfect time to relax and just chill out. Sakura instantly remembered her little date with Eriol. It had been quite a while since Sakura had gone on a date. Most boys were nothing to her. She has had a few boyfriends before but none of them actually turned out as she had hoped so.
Sakura jumped off her bed and went to her walk-in closet. A whole new wardrobe was set right in there. She decided to leave the clothes picking for tomorrow and get down for dinner.
~*~
Syaoran got home in a very bad mood. 'Eriol actually made her go on a date with him!' he thought and mentally slapped himself. Kinimoto Sakura, a name that brought shivers down his spine. A name he promised himself to curse forever. Syaoran felt anger bursting within him. He wanted to pour out his anger through doing something. He wanted to break something or even shout curses at someone. But why?
He slammed the door behind him to his room. He heard a faint knock in a short while. "Who is it?!" he called.
The door burst open with an angry raven-haired girl barging in all of a sudden. "Li Syaoran! What the hell has gone wrong with your damn brain!?" she scolded him.
"Shut up Meilin! Leave me alone! What's you're problem?!" he told his ever-so-nosy cousin.
"Oh now I'M the one who has a problem? You've practically been throwing everything you put your hands on!" Meilin replied with the same tone of voice as her cousin.
"Go out now! This is my room!" Syaoran said demandingly.
"What the fuck is YOUR problem?" Meilin asked him getting rather ticked. "Why the hell are you so mad?"
"Why?! Why am I so mad?!" came Syaoran's response. "I'll tell you why! Because some girl just took my bestfriend away!" he added without lowering his voice's volume as he talked.
"Oh really?" Meilin's answer was filled with sarcasm. "Like woah, I'm going nuts because of one damn girl."
"Look, if you really want to know, Eriol asked Ms. I'm-all-that out on a date tomorrow. Happy now?" Syaoran said.
"Something tells me you're talking about a certain Kinimoto Sakura. You're always making a big fuss about her!" Meilin replied as she started to mock Syaoran by imitating him. "Ehem. Sakura's did this, and Sakura's did that! And on top of that, she's being a really big bitch." Meilin grinned at the way she was getting on Syaoran's nerves.
"Shut up, Meilin," he told her.
"Do us all a favor and don't bring your anger all the way home. It's not like the entire world has to know about your hatred for her!" Meilin scolded him and rolled her eyes. "If you hate her so much then stop making such a big fuss because of her," she added before she walked away.
"Yeah, sure. Like I could do that," Syaoran scoffed before he finally settled down.
