Chapter Five So we met again

Warning: This chapter is mostly on Tomoyo and Eriol. I needed them stir up the rest of my story.

"Ohayo, Tomoyo-chan," Sakura greeted when she saw Tomoyo walked down the road towards the school. Tomoyo turned around and fake a smile, "Ohayo, Sakura-chan." Sakura looked at her, she knew something was wrong.

"Tomoyo-chan, what's wrong?" Sakura asked. Tomoyo looked down at the floor. "Tomoyo-chan?" Sakura asked again. Tomoyo shook her head, "Nothing, Sakura- chan." And she ran off in which Sakura followed behind.

Syaoran's side

"Syaoran, get your ass up," Eriol shouted, "We have school today!"

Syaoran opened one of his eyes. He had totally forgotten about school due to Li Yong Yi's case. His mother had received the news and will come to Japan after she finished her case in Hong Kong.

"Syaoran!!" Eriol shouted again as he slammed the bedroom door open.

"I'm awake," Syaoran replied as he sat up at the side of the bed.

"Good," Eriol smiled as he went out of the room, "Your breakfast is ready."

'Now he sounds a lot like my mother and Wei,' Syaoran thought as he washed himself up.

As Syaoran looked into the kitchen, he wondered again, 'How some we have school today? Isn't it holiday?'

"We have half a day at school only," Eriol replied as he saw Syaoran wondering.

"And how did you know what I'm thinking, Mr. Know-It-All?" Syaoran asked, narrowing his eyes.

"Syaoran, how long have I know you?" Eriol laughed, "A look on your face tells me everything in your head. It's like reading a book." Syaoran stared at him while Eriol continued while placing Syaoran's breakfast in front of him, "So have you open the book yet?" Porridge. Syaoran stared at it and back at Eriol.

"You cook this?" Syaoran asked. "What do you expect? I bought it?" Eriol asked with his hand by the sides.

"Can this be eaten?" Syaoran whispered as he stared at the porridge. He had never seen Eriol cook before nor did he know Eriol could cook. Eriol whacked Syaoran's head hard which made Syaoran yelled in pain, shouting, "What the hell you do that for?"

"I really hope I did put in poison," Eriol hissed as he walked away.

"Give me a break will you? Can't you see I'm joking?" Syaoran laughed.

"Yeah as f I will believe that," Eriol laughed. How childish can they be? After all, they are only 16.

"I haven't opened the book alright," Syaoran replied to Eriol's question, while still smiling, "I'm too caught up in the case."

"I thought so," Eriol replied in agreement. The past two nights were the trouble ones. The whole government was turning upside-down within, due to their carelessness. It's a good thing that the president did blame them.

"When are you planning to open the book then?" Eriol asked as he looked at Syaoran gobbling the food at high-speed.

"Tonight," Syaoran replied as he swallowed his last spoon of porridge, "Here, I'm done."

"You're fast, do you know that?" Eriol asked, sweatdropped.

"I'm not call the beast of the Li's for nothing right?" Syaoran asked sarcastically. He had never lost to anyone when it comes to eating. Eriol washed his dish.

"I am driving for today, Eriol," Syaoran shouted as he walked out of the kitchen. Eriol stared at him leave, 'This is not good.'

Eriol packed his things and went down the stairs. He found Syaoran starting the engine of the car. (Still the same car)

"Eriol, hurry up will you?" Syaoran shouted from within his car. Eriol sighed and got into the car. As soon as he does that, Syaoran blasted the car off. (Blast the car off? I don't think that will even happen in real life.)

"Syaoran, careful with you driving!" Eriol shouted as he fastened his seat belt. Syaoran just ignore his comment. Eriol looked at the car driving past the rest of the car, he bet those drivers will be cursing under their breath on Syaoran for driving that fast. (Wouldn't he get caught for speeding? I myself is also wondering.) After a while, the school came into sight.

"Eriol, hold on tight," Syaoran grimed, "I'm going for my special technique."

"What?!" Eriol sweatdropped as he felt himself slamming hard against the window as Syaoran pulled a immediate right turn into the school. The car drove through the gate at top speed. When the lot came into sight, Syaoran pulled an immediate brake and make the car turned a 180° and came to a stop. Eriol who is still sweating, sat in his seat in shocked. Syaoran got out of the car and stared at his parking skill.

"Not too bad," Syaoran told himself.

"It' you!" A familiar voice shouted. Syaoran turned and found himself face to face with that girl again.

Sakura's Side

The rest of the way was silences. Tomyo didn't speak to Sakura either did Sakura. It felt unusual and this worried Sakura.

"Tomoyo-chan," Sakura finally opened her mouth.

"Yes?" Tomoyo asked politely.

"What exactly..." Before Sakura could finish her sentence, a car swept past them at high speed. Both Tomoyo and Sakura stared at the car as it came to a stop and out came the guy Sakura met two nights ago. Sakura could feel herself blushing the moment she sees him. Her heartbeat went faster.

"Not too bad," the boy exclaimed.

"It's you!" Sakura exclaimed. The boy turned and looked at her.

"From the look, you are a student here," Syaoran said as he walked over to Sakura. Sakura felt herself getting hotter from within, her face getting redder.

"Yes," Sakura replied. Syaoran looked at her face turning tomato-red and thought to himself, 'This is going to be fun.'

"Still thinking about the kiss?" Syaoran asked.

"One thing I'm warning you stranger," Sakura warned, "I have a boyfriend so don't you go spreading you kiss me before."

"Oh, you afraid that he might abandon you?" Syaoran teased her.

"Zetsu wouldn't," Sakura argued back.

"Zetsu is your boyfriend, I guess," he asked.

"So what if he is? I warn you..." Syaoran interrupted her, "The name is Syaoran. You keep on calling me stranger."

"Do I look like I care?" Sakura continued, "But I warn you, one word from you, you are dead."

"I'm so scared," Syaoran lied, "I think I'm going to wet my pant. Ha! You think I'm going to say that?"

"Why you..." Sakura can't find anything to fight back. This guy is good in this.

Tomoyo stared at them. Just then, Eriol got off the car and Tomoyo spotted him. She could feel herself blushing. 'Why?' Tomoyo wondered as she felt herself blushing. The scene came back hunting her. Tomoyo wanted to walk over to him but something pulled her back. Something.

Eriol spotted the now-all-red Tomoyo and thought, 'Oh no, this girl is in the same school as me?'

Not knowing what to do, Eriol shouted, "Come on Syaoran, we have to go," as he pulled his friend away. Tomoyo and Sakura looked at them disappeared at the corner. Sakura turned and walked towards Tomoyo.

"Are you alright?" Tomoyo asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine," Tomoyo lied.

Syaoran's side

"What's wrong, Eriol?" Syaoran whispered. They had met the principal and their teacher. Now they were having a tour about the school.

"Nothing," Eriol lied.

"You're lying," Syaoran replied.

"I'm not," Eriol whispered.

"Yes, you are," Syaoran hissed, "Just spilt it out."

"Fine," Eriol spoke unwillingly, "Remember that girl, the vilent-hair girl."

Syaoran nodded his head, "I saw her just now. She was blushing."

"That's the problem," Eriol made a face.

"She's the problem?" Syaoran questioned in disbelief, "What's the problem with her?"

"Oh, come on, Syaoran," Eriol stared at him, "Don't tell me you don't know."

Syaoran stared at him and like a strike of lightning; he suddenly knew what he was thinking.

"Now, I see," Syaoran grimed, "You don't know how to explain the situation." Eriol made another face again. Why did he even bother to tell him this? He must be out of his mind.

Sakura's side

Flashback of Tomoyo

"What were you doing, Tomoyo?" Sonomi continued her scolding even after they got home. Tomoyo listened obediently. She sat in her seat and listen to her mother's lecture. Even so, she was not listening to Sonomi, she was still thinking about that Hiiragizawa guy. She lets herself in, which is a dumb thing for her to do. Not to mention that if her mother had not come in, she would already.... But she thinks again, everything was like a dream. His lip was soft and sweet. She never knew why. Is kiss always like this?

"Tomoyo, you are not listening to me," Sonomi shouted angrily, "Who exactly is that guy?"

"I don't know, Oka-san," Tomoyo sighed, "I just met him."

"You just met him and you kiss him?" Sonomi asked in shocked.

"Oka-san, I told you already," Tomoyo sighed again, "He was the one who kiss me. Not me."

"And you let him? Tomoyo..." Tomoyo wasn't listening to the rest of what her mother was telling her. She was just too tired. Tired.

End of Flashback

"Daidouji-san!" A voice called out to Tomoyo from her thoughts.

"Yes!" Tomoyo answered.

"Will you kindly read from line 35 onwards?" Miss Torema asked. Tomyo continued the story, 'The Region of Flame'.

Sakura stared at her friend as she read on. Something is definitely wrong. It's unusual for Tomoyo to not listen to the teacher.

Just thenm, the door slid open. In came Mrs. Mandy along with Syaoran and Eriol. Tomoyo stopped her reading and stared at them as well as Sakura.

"Class, I want you to meet, Syaoran Li and Eriol Hiiragizawa from Hong Kong," Mrs. Mangy introduced them. The girls stared at them. Whispering was heard. Tomoyo just stared at Eriol as Eriol and Syaoran introduced themselves.

"My name is Syaoran Li, nice to meet you," Syaoran said politely with his wolfish smile.

"My name is Eriol Hiiragizawa, hope to work well with you," Eriol said as he gave the girls his cool smile.

The girl went crazy over them. Eriol spotted Tomoyo again; it was obvious for she was standing up. He knew she was looking at him, but he acted as if he didn't know.

Sakura was staring at Syaoran (Of course). 'So his name is Syaoran Li.' She thought, 'Hey, wait, Li? Which means...' Sakura stared eye-widened at Syaoran. 'He's a Li? No. It's not possible. There is many people in Hong Kong that are called Li. He might not be one that opposes my family.' Sakura comforted herself but thinks again, 'What if he is?'

"Li and Hiiragizawa will be sitting behind Kinoyoto and Daidouji," Mrs. Mandy replied. It was easy to spot their seats for there were only two empty seats in the chole class. They went over and settled themselves down. Syaoran grimed at Sakura as she stared at him.

"Nice to meet you, Kinoyoto-san," Syaoran greeted as he acted as if he didn't know Sakura. Sakura was rather relief by his action.

"Same here too," Sakura replied as she turned to face the front.

'He isn't so bad after all.' Sakura thought.

Eriol was staring at the still-standing up Tomoyo. His heart was beating very fast and he asked himself why. Tomoyo wanted to turn around and looked at him. She had a lot of questions after that night. But something worries her. What if he was playing her out?

"Thank you, Daidouji-san, you may sit down now," the teacher told her and the lessons continued while both Tomoyo and Eriol couldn't concentrate.

After school, Tomoyo packed her bag quickly and was about to leave when Eriol finally called out to Tomoyo.

"Daidouji-san, can I speak to you for a moment?" Eriol asked. Tomoyo looked at him and so did the rest of the girls in the class. They watched as they left together before they muttered things under their breaths. Sakura packed her bags and followed closely behind, while Syaoran watched as she left.

Tomoyo's Side

"What's the matter, Hiiragizawa-kun?" Tomoyo asked nervously.

"There's something I have to tell you," Eriol replied, his back facing her.

"What?" Tomoyo asked, faking a smile. But she knew inside her, she was having a bad feeling about this.

"About the kiss..." Eriol paused; he knew he was going to break this girl's heart. He knew he would and he hates himself for breaking the angel's heart. (Angel's heart? I thought so)

"Don't worry about it, I wouldn't tell anyone," Tomoyo smiled.

"It's not about that!" Eriol shouted, he could feel himself all tensed up.

"I really need to go, Hiiragizawa-kun," Tomoyo insisted as she turned to leave.

"I was having a bet with Syaoran," Eriol finally got to his point. Tomoyo stopped and turned to face him.

"I thought you might...you know... mistake that I..." Before Eriol could finish his sentence, Tomoyo continues, "Don't worry, I know." And she ran off. Tears were building in her eyes the moment she heard that sentences.

"Daidouji-san!" Eriol shouted as he watched her ran off. His heart was in pain.

'Why am I feeling this?' Eriol thought.

Sakura's Side

"Mo... Where can Tomoyo-chan be?" Sakura asked as she searched the school for her sight. Just then Sakura spotted Tomoyo running towards her direction.

"Tomoyo-chan," Sakura shouted as she ran towards Tomoyo.

"Gomen, Sakura-chan, I want to go home alone for today," Tomoyo replied as she dashed past her and down the road. Tomoyo didn't want Sakura to see her tears.

"Tomoyo-chan!" Sakura who just recovered from the shock went after her but lost her sight again.

'Is Tomoyo-chan crying? Why? What did Hiiragizawa talk to her about?' Sakura wondered.

Eriol's side

"So you told her about it?" Syaoran asked as he drove themselves home. Eriol sighed, while his face turned slightly red. He was still thinking if he had done the right thing. His heart felt like it had been hit by a thousand needles.

"And why are you blushing?" Syaoran smirked. His friend had found a girl, he just realized.

"I'm not blushing," Eriol lied, his face turning redder, "And, yes, I told her about it."

"What is her reaction?" Syaoran asked, trying to stop himself from laughing his heart out.

"She is a wise girl alright," Eriol replied half-heartedly, "She didn't blame me or anything." 'Oh' was Syaoran's only reply. And the rest of the journey was silence again.

Tomoyo's side

Tomoyo sat alone in the park. Her face had turned red and so were her eyes. She knew just how dumb it was for her to cry her heart out. Her heart was in pain while tears kept forming in her eyes. Tomoyo, you are just another girl that that guy played and put aside. Tomoyo, have you forgotten your mother's teaching? Never ever trust a guy not until you know him inside out. Tomoyo didn't know what to do as more tears rolled down her cheeks. Just then, a handkerchief appeared in front of her eyes. Tomoyo looked up and saw a golden hair guy with piecing black eyes in front of her.

"Here you go, Daidouji-san," the guy handed his handkerchief to her. Tomoyo blushed.

"My name is Vicky Molly. I'm in the same school as you are," Vicky introduced himself.

"Vicky?" Tomoyo's voice was blurring. She had cried too much.

"I've been noticing you for a while," Vicky told her, a sweet smile on his face. Tomoyo looked at him. She didn't know she had admirers. (And yes, she had a lot of admirers and so is Sakura) She knew Sakyra has a lot for she is hyper-cute.

"You... like me?" Tomoyo questioned softly, staring into his eyes.

"Ah? Why... Yes, Daidouji-san," Vicky replied nervously, while blushing.

"Call me, Tomoyo," Tomoyo replied.

"Yes, Tomoyo-chan," Vicky replied, "I was hoping you could consider being my girlfriend." Tomoyo stared at him, it was all of a sudden that the sentence came out of nowhere.

"I know it's a bit rush for you to consider, since you know practically nothing about me," Vicky added, afraid that he might offend Tomoyo. Upon seeing his reaction, Tomoyo laughed. Vicky is really one strange guy.

"You know something, Tomoyo-chan," Vicky said, "Your smile is the most beautiful." Tomoyo blushed upon hearing that sentence.

Eriol's side

The two guys sat quietly in the car. Syaoran concentrated on his driving while Eriol looked out at the window. He was still thinking about Tomoyo. As they stopped in front of the traffic light, Eriol spotted Tomoyo with another guy in the park. Something struck hard on his heart. Tomoyo was laughing at the boy and smiling at him too!! Eriol stared at her, he thought he heard his heart shuttered into pieces. His fist were clinched together hard. He never saw her smile before. Her smile was beautiful. 'An angel from heaven.' Eriol thought. 'And why am I feeling jealous? Don't tell me I fall in love with this girl?'

Syaoran saw Eriol's reaction and looked over the direction he's looking. He spotted Tomoyo and the guy, he looked back at his friend.

"You are not going to interfere?" Syaoran asked sarcastically.

"No, it's not my problem," Eriol lied still staring at Tomoyo, in his heart, he wanted so much to get off the car and havoc that guy, "Let's go. It's green light."

"Fine," Syaoran giggled, "If she is being stolen by others, don't come crying over me." As he started the engine and drove off.

Sakura's side

"Sakura-chan," Zetsu called out to her as she walked down the path home.

"Zetsu-kun," Sakura turned and saw him. She didn't want to met him, at least not now when she was still in thought of Li.

"What's wrong Sakura-chan?" Zetsu asked, sensing something wrong.

"Nothing," Sakura lied, "So how's your day?"

"I still have things to do," Zetsu sighed, "But I want to spent more time with you, Sakura-chan."

Sakura blushed. "Zetsu-kun, you better hrruy up," She told him with a smile, "It's about 3." Zetsu stared down at his watch in horror and dashed off. "Sakura-chan, I will call you later. Bye for now,"

"Be careful!" Sakura shouted as she watched his shadow disappeared down the path. Sakura sighed again, she still can't get that kiss scene off her mind. She felt like she did something wrong behind Zetsu's back, especially Zetsu had never kiss her. That Li came and stole her first kiss and worst still, he might be the Li her mother told her to be careful of.

If he is really the Li her mother was telling her, what will she do? Kill him? Or torture him? No, Sakura, this is not right. He didn't know you as Kinomoto right? Then why bother about him? Hey, are you going soft on him? If that guy is Li, then you should be hunting him, but why are you so unwilling? Don't tell me you have feeling for him?

"I told you no!! I wouldn't allow my daughter to take that job," Nadeshiko slammed the phone as Sakura walked into her house. Sakura sweatdropped as she walked past her mother.

"Sakuar-chan, how was school today?" Nadeshiko asked.

"Fine," Sakura replied, "OKa-san, you know the name of the Li's son?" Nadeshiko looked at her in surprise, did Sakura find a Li?

"Yes," Nadeshiko replied in an odd tone, "Why did you asked?"

"Hmm?" Sakura looked at her mother in an uncertain look. Has her mother found out she had a Li on her mind?

"Why did you ask?" Nadshiko questioned again.

"I thought since I should be on guard on this guy, I need to know his name or I wouldn't know who the real one is," Sakura lied. White lies.

"Really?" Nadeshiko questioned again. Sakura sweatdropped and nodded her head. Nadeshiko soghed and replied, "Sakura-chan, you know you shouldn't lie to me."

"I understand, Oka-san,"Sakura replied.

"The name is Syaoran," Nadeshiko replied.

Sakura's face turned white, her mouth widen in horror upon hearing the name.

He IS the Li!!!

Finally I finish my chapter five. This chapter is really...

I'm currently focusing on Tomoyo and Eriol since they are first-sight lovers. (Not sure if everyone understand it) I need them for the back of my story. Sakura and Syaoran of course.

Those who read a lot of love story should be able to predict the story. Very easy to predict.

Next chapter Chapter Six Ever since...

Syaoran finally read the book that belongs to his father. The secrets between the Li's and... What?! Kinomoto's? What is it got to do with them? What's going on here? As Syaoran read on, he found out that Sakura is... (Completely on Syaoran's part)
