Chapter 9 The Club Incident:
Sakura's eyes widened at the sight of the name in her hands. "You can't be serious I have to kiss him? And after everything that's happened, out of all people this is who I get paired up with? I can't do it, I am not doing it." Sakura stomped a stubborn foot on the floor as hard as she could, she was pissed she didn't want to be paired up with him, she had to kiss him and do lots of other stuff with him too in this stupid play, there shouldn't even be a play like this allowed. "This sucks like a rats ass, I can't believe my luck, what will other people think when they see me with.... ................................................................................................................
Syoaran Pov:
Syaoran was pacing around his small apartment angrily still remembering the little conversation he had had with Sakura, it wasn't that friendly and he tried his best not to revision it but to no avail, all the pictures were forming in his mind as he saw Sakura's shocked face look at him with the most dread which he noticed when she first answered the door. The look on her face was priceless and at that moment he was extremely happy to see her sad and speechless but now that it was coming back to haunt him he felt like going back and taking everything that he said to her and throwing it out the window. He finally stopped circling the room and hit his kitchen counter with his fist, making a small crack in the white tile.
"Arrgghhh! I can't get her out of my head, just the thought of her and Eriol makes me go ballistic, that should be me not him, that should be ME holding her in my arms ME!" Deep inside he was mad at himself for yelling at her but just didn't want to admit it. Slowly he made his way to his car still obscenely angry. He was practically dragging himself in order to reach his car, and all the frustration boiling inside of him made him decide to go to a club, hopefully there he would be able to calm down, have a few drinks, and talk to friends.
(sigh) "I really need to get over her, now I really see what she's like, besides I don't need someone like her, I need someone who is polite, loving, caring, and absolutely not bitchy, THAT I can't handle." Syaoran put a hand on his forehead with the other on the steering wheel keeping his amber eyes on the road in front of him.
He really didn't care anymore about what happened to her...or so he thought, he was just too upset at the moment to care let alone realize that he was in love with her, just the touch of her skin made him melt and that special look she gave him before her sudden change in personality was unbearable, even for someone as strong and manly as him. He frowned at the thought of never being with her and a small tear began to form in his eye, he blinked furiously as if to not let it fall onto his pale cheek. He wasn't going to weep over her, not after what had just happened. He was going to go and have fun, with Sakura's image out of his mind and soul and there was nothing that anyone could do to change that. ................................................................................................................
Normal Pov:
Sakura just stay at home for the rest of the evening eating anything she could, doing anything she could to take her mind off the play and Syaoran, the guy that she thought she would be most happy with, but now it was obvious to her that that was never going to happen.
"How is all of this going to end up? What will happen if my plan doesn't work, everything will crumble and I'll live a miserable life forever. All of this was for the sake of me and Syaoran, so we could be together, even Tomoyo thought of us as the perfect couple but I guess that she was wrong. If I told Syaroan now about everything, he would probably think that I only made it up to win back his affection towards me and only I will know that I am telling the truth other then Tomoyo. I can't take this anymore!"
Sakura dug her face into her hands as she sobbed uncontrollably, all her dreams she had had before were passing right before her eyes but not as happily ending ones but as sad ones that ended in despair. With her face still buried in her shaking hands she ran to her room alone with no one to comfort her. ................................................................................................................
Club:
Syaoran had arrived at the club a good thirty minutes before and was now sitting at the bar having a few drinks. He had already forgotten about Sakura and Eriol and was now talking with a few friends from school taking a few swigs here and there and was slowly beginning to get drunk which was what he wanted in the first place, all his thoughts of Sakura would disappear for the time being until the next morning, he knew perfectly well that it would come back again but just wanted to have an evening without any hassles.
"So Syaoran, why are you here? Don't you have to do that play crap back at home?" One of Syaoran's extremely drunk friends asked, swaying from side to side smiling dumbly.
"Oh no reason I just wanted to see if I could get a few friends together and chat that's all." Syaoran got up and stretched; loosing his balance he fell backwards onto the dance floor making all the faces turn and stare at him. All he did was wave at the crowd and lifted up his hands as his pals helped him up from the ground laughing hilariously.
"That was some fall dude, now are you thinking alright? You know were not stupid, tell us the real reason you came here, was it because you wanted to look for some chicks, because to tell you the truth that's why were here too, there's sooo many hot girls here and not to mention they're single too." Another guy said nudging Syaoran playfully. He then took another swig of his drink and roughly handed one to Syaoran. "Look all around you..." Syaoran turned around and saw nothing but blurs so in order to see he had to squint. "Do you see all of those sexy girls out there that are just waiting for someone like you to come along? If you don't see them then go out there and smell the roses buddy because tonight you're going to go on a long ride!" And before Syaoran could say anything they pushed his out into the crowd and into this beautiful brunette. She turned around surprised and looked at Syaoran who just looked at his friends, they smiled and were giving him the thumbs up back at the bar. Syaoran clearly wasn't thinking and began talking to her, forgetting all about Sakura.
"Hello, my name is Michelle what's yours?" The girl asked.(I know it's the same name as the one in the play but I just really like this name that's y I'm usin it again) Syaoran just wobbled in his spot and stared at her before he answered. She seemed pretty with long brown hair and brown eyes that sparkled in the fluorescent light and a to die for smile that would make any guys knees wobble. She was wearing a short black skirt with a red spaghetti strap shirt that clung onto her nicely curved body. After staring carelessly at her he then found the words to say and spit them out groggily.
"My name is Syaoran what's yours?" He replied. The girl smiled at his remark and invited him to sit down with her at a nearby table. Syaoran just followed her as he watched her butt sway from side to side and turned around to smile at his companions. She was already waiting for him when he took a seat next to her, scooting closer and closer by the minute. He was obviously having a great time for he was whispering into her ear making her blush and making her laugh every now and then.
The time seemed to go by really slow and Syaoran was already really drunk but wasn't drinking anymore for the girl had taken his beer away.
"So, do you want to dance?" She asked him getting up straightening her skirt.
"Sure I'd love to." He replied also getting up from the table. He wasn't that drunk anymore but still drunk enough to not be able to think straight. He took her hand and rushed over to the middle of the dance floor wrapping his arms around her waist pulling her closer to him. She didn't mind this one bit and moved closer, inches from his face.
"So Michelle what do you do?" Syaoran asked expecting an answer like McDonalds or something but didn't get one.
"Well, that's for me to know and you to find out." She said pointing a finger to his chest. He just looked at her and smiled evilly.
"I guess I'll have to investigate then huh?" She sweetly nodded her head and without any thought Syaoran pulled her into a rough kiss, their tongues colliding with eachother. They then parted gasping for breath when Syaoran whispered into her ear sending shivers down her back. "Lets get out of here and go to my place."
"Sure, but lets go to my place instead, I think I have some things that you'll enjoy." She said winking at him. Syaoran smiled and walked with her out of the club. ................................................................................................................
Tomoyo Pov:
"Now where is my damn lipstick?" Tomoyo said looking through her purse, she was headed for the club to have a few dances and drinks but stopped when she heard some voices protruding from out of the club doors. She looked up and saw Syaroan hand in hand with another girl, Tomoyo's eyes widened to their full extent at this sight and dropped her purse not caring if anything inside broke.
"...Then after we can go to the kitchen and get some hunny and..." The girl was saying to Syaoran who smiled and nodded vigorously at her remarks. Tomoyo just stared at the two as they got into their car and drove off, Syaroan didn't even notice that Tomoyo was standing there and boy after what she saw he was going to wish he did. ................................................................................................................
Sakura's House:
Sakura was reading the novel she had been reading for the past 2 weeks and was only half way through the book. Her eyes were drooping off slowly with every passing second, and finally without realizing it she fell off into a deep slumber, but little did she know that right this second Syaoran was going to do something that he would regret for the rest of his life. ................................................................................................................
Syaoran:
Syaoran drove his car to Michelle's place, still slightly drunk and laughing. He was so off guard that he didn't realize that she had put her hand on his leg until she squeezed which made him swerve to stay in the right lane.
"What was that?" He asked giving her a half smile.
"Just a taste of what I'll be doing later on tonight." She replied winking again. Syaoran just continued smiling and focused his attention to the road.
Later:
He arrived at the front of Michelle's house and turned off the engine, as soon as he stopped she kissed him roughly with her hand playing in his tousled hair. Syaoran responded positively to this and kissed her back with the same force and passion. Then all of a sudden flashes started coming to his mind, pictures of him and some other person. There was a flash of emerald eyes and then there was a sound of giggling in the distance. Still kissing the woman in front of him he remembered being in a corner somewhere outside, inches away from an auburn haired beauty, about to kiss her, their breath warm against eachothers lips and then...
"I can't do this." Syaroan said abruptly pulling away from her.
"What's wrong Syaoran?" She asked sitting back in her seat.
"No..Nothing..it's just.. I.. I have someone waiting for me and I need to go to her." Syaoran said facing the dash of the car. Michelle just looked at him surprised and irritated by his words.
"What? You're saying that you have a girlfriend waiting for you back at home? I can't believe this, and all this time you didn't say anything, how disgusting!" She said throwing her hands in the air as she got out of the car, slamming the door behind her. "What would make you think that you can do this? This is rude, and very wrong of you, and if you have someone waiting for you then why were you in the club, flirting with me in the first place?" She said folding her arms. Syaoran just hung his head and answered her in a calm but quiet voice.
"Because I never realized how much I loved her until now." Michelle just stood there and was about to say something when Syaoran drove off leaving her alone at her steps.
He drove to his apartment after thinking about going back and apologizing to Sakura, he decided it was best if he waited for the right moment, besides it was about 11 at night and he didn't want to wake her.
(Clink)
He threw his keys down onto the coffee table in the living room and thought to himself about what he was going to say to her while getting ready for bed, Meiling was home but was asleep in her room talking to herself without realizing she was doing so, Syaoran noticed this and smiled but stopped what he was doing to listen to what she was saying.
"I love you, please take me back I promise I'll never do anything to hurt you ever again as long as you make me yours." Meiling was tossing and turning in her bed while saying this and Syaoran smiled, also taking in mind the things she was saying. If he wanted to convince Sakura that he wanted and loved her then he was going to have to find the perfect words to say. ................................................................................................................
The Club:
Tomoyo was pissed, she thought that Syaoran really liked Sakura or even loved her but after what she just saw, her Sakura needed someone better then him. She didn't go into the club, instead she sat down on the curb thinking about Sakura and how she would feel after she found out about this.
'Oh Tomoyo (sob) I can't believe that he did this to me, I really wanted to be with him and now...now...o god!' Sakura buried her face in her hands as she bawled her eyes out. Tomoyo just sat there next to her with a comforting hand on her back.
"Oh Sakura I'm sorry, I'm sorry about all of this but I know that everything will turn out good in the end I just know it!" Tomoyo said getting up and walking back home, she didn't feel like having fun anymore, all she could think about was Sakura. It always troubled her to see Sakura sad and depressed. Ever since they were little she was always be there for her when she was in need. ................................................................................................................
Flashback:
"Come and get me Tomoyo haha I'm too fast for you you'll never catch up!" Little Sakura about the age of 5 called out. Tomoyo and her were racing down the road in front of her house, it was a nice warm day and it was the perfect time to go play tag.
"I'll get you sooner or later Sakura, just because you're better at roller blading then I am doesn't mean that you're not catchable."
"Then why aren't you able to get me then answer tha...woah!" Sakura turned around to face Tomoyo when a rock stopped her in her tracks, making her spin off course. She twirled around a few times and finally fell hard on her arm.
"Sakura! Are you okay?"
Sakura looked up and smiled sweetly but was in pain, and Tomoyo noticed it. Worried she skated over to the injured Sakura and took her arm gently in her soft caring hands. She looked at the wound and saw a big scratch from where she had landed.
"Ouch, don't touch it Tomoyo." Sakura winced as Tomoyo looked her arm over.
"Well Sakura you have a boo-boo and we have to fix it, you don't want to get sick from the dirty stuff on it do you?" Sakura looked at her friend and smiled again as she began to get up, trying not to move her arm as much as possible.
"Come on Sakura, lets' go to your house and get a band aide for you to use okay?"
"Okay."
They slowly skated to Sakura's house being careful as to not bump the injury. As soon as they got inside Tomoyo went to the kitchen and opened a drawer of cotton swabs, band aids, and liquid medicine to put over the wounds. She took a band aid out of its box and made her way to Sakura who was sitting on the couch, curiously looking and slightly touching her boo- boo.
"Sakura, don't touch it, it will hurt you." Tomoyo said wiping the wound with a wet towel. Sakura held out her arm out as Tomoyo did her magic, wondering how she could know and do all of the stuff she was doing now.
"How do you know what to do with owies Tomoyo?" She said as Tomoyo took the white paper off the back of the band aide.
"I learned from my mommy, she always does this when I get boo- boos like yours Sakura." Sakura just stared at her with her mouth open, she then bowed her head sadly.
"I don't have a mommy anymore, my daddy has to teach me about this stuff. I wish she were here though, I miss her a lot." Sakura frowned at the thought of never having her mommy back to care for her, to tuck her in to bed, and to read her stories when she was soaking in the bath.
"It's okay Saku, you have me, your daddy, and your big brother to take care of you don't worry." She took Sakura's hands in hers and smiled one of her comforting smiles, and just like that Sakura felt all her pain disappear and hugged her in return.
"Thank you Tomoyo, you're a great friend."
End of Flashback ................................................................................................................
"I'll tell her about Syaoran tomorrow at school, then I'll have a little talk with him." She then slowly vanished into the night. ................................................................................................................
Morning:
Sakura lie in bed wide awake since 7 that morning, she didn't really know why she was awake, maybe it was because the play was going to begin that day, or most likely it was because of Syaoran but just didn't want to admit it to herself. She just couldn't get over the fact that he now hated her, she didn't want that at all, she wanted everything to go back to the way it was before Eriol went all bonkers. But that was all in the past and it already happened, there was nothing that could possibly happen to make up for what she went through along with everyone else.
"I have to go to the play...and I have to face Syaoran along with Eriol as well. Just breathe Sakura, everything will be alright you'll see." She then got up and lazily changed into her uniform. "Ok one arm through the sleeve, now the other, ok and the skirt, just pull it up and zip it, there you go." Sakura said to herself grabbing her backpack and rushing out the front door.
Screech!
Sakura parked her car and slowly got out, she didn't care if she was late again, she just didn't feel like doing anything but knew that she had to face this sooner or later.
"Sigh...what a day this is going to be. I hope we start this stupid play soon so I can get home and sleep some more, this really sucks." Sakura said reaching for the classroom door. Everyone looked at her as she walked in, of course she was late and she knew it but just ignored everyone's stares and sat down in her seat. ................................................................................................................
Syaoran Pov:
Syaoran looked over at Sakura taking deep breathes to soothe himself. She looked sad and she had a reason to too, everything he said to her must've really gotten to her head and he was going to try and make her better...at least try.
'I have to tell her what happened, and I have to tell her the truth because if this somehow gets out and she finds out from someone other then me then I'm screwed. All of it wasn't entirely my fault, it just sort of happened, I want to be with her and I'll prove it to her someway or another.' ................................................................................................................
Normal Pov:
"Ok are all of you ready, today is the big day and we have to make it as perfect as possible right?" The teacher asked the class. They said 'yes' and began to file out of the classroom to the theatre. Everyone seemed excited except for Sakura, Tomoyo and Syaoran. Eriol didn't mind the play at all, to him it was just another way to get girls thinking that he was some sort of hunk who was good at acting, as for Meiling she was barely ever around Sakura and Syaoran that much, clearly she had other things better to do then help out with problems. Well, that was Meiling, the Meiling that never lended a hand to anyone other then herself, but no one really cared any how 'cause she was always mean and snotty to everyone so they never really payed much attention to her.
"Okay, get dressed, the classes will be coming in about fifteen minutes lets go lets go lets go!" Everyone just looked at their teacher who was too into the moment and shook their heads sadly.
Sakura was walking down from the stage towards the bathrooms when Tomoyo grabbed her arm. Sakura twirled around and stared her in the eyes questioningly.
"We have to talk...now." And without notice Tomoyo began their way to the back of the theatre where no one could hear them. They were walking up the steps when Tomoyo caught a glimpse of Syaoran who was also on his way to tell Sakura about his little incident in the club. She just gave him a glare and continued walking with Sakura in front of her. Syaoran just stared confusedly, he didn't know why she was acting like this and was curious. He just stood in his spot watching Sakura and Tomoyo talk in the back row. Tomoyo had Sakura's hands in hers as was telling Sakura something. Obviously it wasn't cheerful for Sakura clasped her hands to her mouth and was shaking her head vigorously. Syaoran looked at Sakura and then Tomoyo who was silently looking at her giving her a hug. Then they both stood up making their way back down the steps.
'What were they saying, why is Sakura crying?" Syaoran thought concernedly, keeping his eye on Sakura's advancing form. She caught him looking at her and her lips began to quiver as she ran to the bathroom with Tomoyo right behind her, who was holding their outfits in her hands. Tomoyo practically stomped to his side and whispered in his ear in a snakelike way.
"I saw you at the club yesterday and trust me, now you'll never have to talk to Sakura ever again since now she hates you, you're disgusting, both you and Eriol so stay away from her or you'll have to answer to me." She said looking him up and down before walking towards the bathroom doors but not before she stopped once again for one more quick word.
"I told her everything that I saw, everything from the brunette to your driving away in your car. And if you're thinking about talking to her, like I said before, stay away she doesn't want to see your sickening face ever again." And before Syaoran could tell her anything, she was out of sight. ................................................................................................................
"Okay, everyone fill up the seats over here and when there's none left move on to the next row." The teachers were instructing their students who just lazily sat down in any random seat.
The play was about to begin and everyone was about done getting in their places and were now rehearsing their lines in their heads, afraid of messing up. Sakura was in her spot already but was just looking blankly in one particular spot, not attempting to blink or move a muscle. Syoaran just stood there with a frown on his embarrassed and sad face.
'I have to tell her the truth, Tomoyo doesn't know the half of it and made it seem like it was all my fault...at least I don't think it was. I have to find someway to tell her soon, please god help me out." Syoaran said looking up at the ceiling of the stage. Just then everyone stiffened up from nervousness for their teachers booming voice echoed throughout the whole theatre.
"And now, the moment you have all been waiting patiently for, please sit back and applaud for my class and their amazing play called "What You See is What You Get"
Everyone clapped loudly as the red curtain began to slowly rise up. ................................................................................................................
N/A: ha ha ha yep, the play is about to begin and I wonder who Sakura will kiss, will it be Eriol or Syaoran who knows. So neways this may not be a fairly good chapter but the next one should be pretty interesting *wink wink* and again thanks to all of you who are reading my fic. Ill try and update asap so don't fret too much. Bye!

Sakura's House:
Sakura was reading the novel she had been reading for the past 2 weeks and was only half way through the book. Her eyes were drooping off slowly with every passing second, and finally without realizing it she fell off into a deep slumber, but little did she know that right this second Syaoran was going to do something that he would regret for the rest of his life. ................................................................................................................
Syaoran:
Syaoran drove his car to Michelle's place, still slightly drunk and laughing. He was so off guard that he didn't realize that she had put her hand on his leg until she squeezed which made him swerve to stay in the right lane.
"What was that?" He asked giving her a half smile.
"Just a taste of what I'll be doing later on tonight." She replied winking again. Syaoran just continued smiling and focused his attention to the road.
Later:
He arrived at the front of Michelle's house and turned off the engine, as soon as he stopped she kissed him roughly with her hand playing in his tousled hair. Syaoran responded positively to this and kissed her back with the same force and passion. Then all of a sudden flashes started coming to his mind, pictures of him and some other person. There was a flash of emerald eyes and then there was a sound of giggling in the distance. Still kissing the woman in front of him he remembered being in a corner somewhere outside, inches away from an auburn haired beauty, about to kiss her, their breath warm against eachothers lips and then...
"I can't do this." Syaroan said abruptly pulling away from her.
"What's wrong Syaoran?" She asked sitting back in her seat.
"No..Nothing..it's just.. I.. I have someone waiting for me and I need to go to her." Syaoran said facing the dash of the car. Michelle just looked at him surprised and irritated by his words.
"What? You're saying that you have a girlfriend waiting for you back at home? I can't believe this, and all this time you didn't say anything, how disgusting!" She said throwing her hands in the air as she got out of the car, slamming the door behind her. "What would make you think that you can do this? This is rude, and very wrong of you, and if you have someone waiting for you then why were you in the club, flirting with me in the first place?" She said folding her arms. Syaoran just hung his head and answered her in a calm but quiet voice.
"Because I never realized how much I loved her until now." Michelle just stood there and was about to say something when Syaoran drove off leaving her alone at her steps.
He drove to his apartment after thinking about going back and apologizing to Sakura, he decided it was best if he waited for the right moment, besides it was about 11 at night and he didn't want to wake her.
(Clink)
He threw his keys down onto the coffee table in the living room and thought to himself about what he was going to say to her while getting ready for bed, Meiling was home but was asleep in her room talking to herself without realizing she was doing so, Syaoran noticed this and smiled but stopped what he was doing to listen to what she was saying.
"I love you, please take me back I promise I'll never do anything to hurt you ever again as long as you make me yours." Meiling was tossing and turning in her bed while saying this and Syaoran smiled, also taking in mind the things she was saying. If he wanted to convince Sakura that he wanted and loved her then he was going to have to find the perfect words to say. ................................................................................................................
The Club:
Tomoyo was pissed, she thought that Syaoran really liked Sakura or even loved her but after what she just saw, her Sakura needed someone better then him. She didn't go into the club, instead she sat down on the curb thinking about Sakura and how she would feel after she found out about this.
'Oh Tomoyo (sob) I can't believe that he did this to me, I really wanted to be with him and now...now...o god!' Sakura buried her face in her hands as she bawled her eyes out. Tomoyo just sat there next to her with a comforting hand on her back.
"Oh Sakura I'm sorry, I'm sorry about all of this but I know that everything will turn out good in the end I just know it!" Tomoyo said getting up and walking back home, she didn't feel like having fun anymore, all she could think about was Sakura. It always troubled her to see Sakura sad and depressed. Ever since they were little she was always be there for her when she was in need. ................................................................................................................
Flashback:
"Come and get me Tomoyo haha I'm too fast for you you'll never catch up!" Little Sakura about the age of 5 called out. Tomoyo and her were racing down the road in front of her house, it was a nice warm day and it was the perfect time to go play tag.
"I'll get you sooner or later Sakura, just because you're better at roller blading then I am doesn't mean that you're not catchable."
"Then why aren't you able to get me then answer tha...woah!" Sakura turned around to face Tomoyo when a rock stopped her in her tracks, making her spin off course. She twirled around a few times and finally fell hard on her arm.
"Sakura! Are you okay?"
Sakura looked up and smiled sweetly but was in pain, and Tomoyo noticed it. Worried she skated over to the injured Sakura and took her arm gently in her soft caring hands. She looked at the wound and saw a big scratch from where she had landed.
"Ouch, don't touch it Tomoyo." Sakura winced as Tomoyo looked her arm over.
"Well Sakura you have a boo-boo and we have to fix it, you don't want to get sick from the dirty stuff on it do you?" Sakura looked at her friend and smiled again as she began to get up, trying not to move her arm as much as possible.
"Come on Sakura, lets' go to your house and get a band aide for you to use okay?"
"Okay."
They slowly skated to Sakura's house being careful as to not bump the injury. As soon as they got inside Tomoyo went to the kitchen and opened a drawer of cotton swabs, band aids, and liquid medicine to put over the wounds. She took a band aid out of its box and made her way to Sakura who was sitting on the couch, curiously looking and slightly touching her boo- boo.
"Sakura, don't touch it, it will hurt you." Tomoyo said wiping the wound with a wet towel. Sakura held out her arm out as Tomoyo did her magic, wondering how she could know and do all of the stuff she was doing now.
"How do you know what to do with owies Tomoyo?" She said as Tomoyo took the white paper off the back of the band aide.
"I learned from my mommy, she always does this when I get boo- boos like yours Sakura." Sakura just stared at her with her mouth open, she then bowed her head sadly.
"I don't have a mommy anymore, my daddy has to teach me about this stuff. I wish she were here though, I miss her a lot." Sakura frowned at the thought of never having her mommy back to care for her, to tuck her in to bed, and to read her stories when she was soaking in the bath.
"It's okay Saku, you have me, your daddy, and your big brother to take care of you don't worry." She took Sakura's hands in hers and smiled one of her comforting smiles, and just like that Sakura felt all her pain disappear and hugged her in return.
"Thank you Tomoyo, you're a great friend."
End of Flashback ................................................................................................................
"I'll tell her about Syaoran tomorrow at school, then I'll have a little talk with him." She then slowly vanished into the night. ................................................................................................................
Morning:
Sakura lie in bed wide awake since 7 that morning, she didn't really know why she was awake, maybe it was because the play was going to begin that day, or most likely it was because of Syaoran but just didn't want to admit it to herself. She just couldn't get over the fact that he now hated her, she didn't want that at all, she wanted everything to go back to the way it was before Eriol went all bonkers. But that was all in the past and it already happened, there was nothing that could possibly happen to make up for what she went through along with everyone else.
"I have to go to the play...and I have to face Syaoran along with Eriol as well. Just breathe Sakura, everything will be alright you'll see." She then got up and lazily changed into her uniform. "Ok one arm through the sleeve, now the other, ok and the skirt, just pull it up and zip it, there you go." Sakura said to herself grabbing her backpack and rushing out the front door.
Screech!
Sakura parked her car and slowly got out, she didn't care if she was late again, she just didn't feel like doing anything but knew that she had to face this sooner or later.
"Sigh...what a day this is going to be. I hope we start this stupid play soon so I can get home and sleep some more, this really sucks." Sakura said reaching for the classroom door. Everyone looked at her as she walked in, of course she was late and she knew it but just ignored everyone's stares and sat down in her seat. ................................................................................................................
Syaoran Pov:
Syaoran looked over at Sakura taking deep breathes to soothe himself. She looked sad and she had a reason to too, everything he said to her must've really gotten to her head and he was going to try and make her better...at least try.
'I have to tell her what happened, and I have to tell her the truth because if this somehow gets out and she finds out from someone other then me then I'm screwed. All of it wasn't entirely my fault, it just sort of happened, I want to be with her and I'll prove it to her someway or another.' ................................................................................................................
Normal Pov:
"Ok are all of you ready, today is the big day and we have to make it as perfect as possible right?" The teacher asked the class. They said 'yes' and began to file out of the classroom to the theatre. Everyone seemed excited except for Sakura, Tomoyo and Syaoran. Eriol didn't mind the play at all, to him it was just another way to get girls thinking that he was some sort of hunk who was good at acting, as for Meiling she was barely ever around Sakura and Syaoran that much, clearly she had other things better to do then help out with problems. Well, that was Meiling, the Meiling that never lended a hand to anyone other then herself, but no one really cared any how 'cause she was always mean and snotty to everyone so they never really payed much attention to her.
"Okay, get dressed, the classes will be coming in about fifteen minutes lets go lets go lets go!" Everyone just looked at their teacher who was too into the moment and shook their heads sadly.
Sakura was walking down from the stage towards the bathrooms when Tomoyo grabbed her arm. Sakura twirled around and stared her in the eyes questioningly.
"We have to talk...now." And without notice Tomoyo began their way to the back of the theatre where no one could hear them. They were walking up the steps when Tomoyo caught a glimpse of Syaoran who was also on his way to tell Sakura about his little incident in the club. She just gave him a glare and continued walking with Sakura in front of her. Syaoran just stared confusedly, he didn't know why she was acting like this and was curious. He just stood in his spot watching Sakura and Tomoyo talk in the back row. Tomoyo had Sakura's hands in hers as was telling Sakura something. Obviously it wasn't cheerful for Sakura clasped her hands to her mouth and was shaking her head vigorously. Syaoran looked at Sakura and then Tomoyo who was silently looking at her giving her a hug. Then they both stood up making their way back down the steps.
'What were they saying, why is Sakura crying?" Syaoran thought concernedly, keeping his eye on Sakura's advancing form. She caught him looking at her and her lips began to quiver as she ran to the bathroom with Tomoyo right behind her, who was holding their outfits in her hands. Tomoyo practically stomped to his side and whispered in his ear in a snakelike way.
"I saw you at the club yesterday and trust me, now you'll never have to talk to Sakura ever again since now she hates you, you're disgusting, both you and Eriol so stay away from her or you'll have to answer to me." She said looking him up and down before walking towards the bathroom doors but not before she stopped once again for one more quick word.
"I told her everything that I saw, everything from the brunette to your driving away in your car. And if you're thinking about talking to her, like I said before, stay away she doesn't want to see your sickening face ever again." And before Syaoran could tell her anything, she was out of sight. ................................................................................................................
"Okay, everyone fill up the seats over here and when there's none left move on to the next row." The teachers were instructing their students who just lazily sat down in any random seat.
The play was about to begin and everyone was about done getting in their places and were now rehearsing their lines in their heads, afraid of messing up. Sakura was in her spot already but was just looking blankly in one particular spot, not attempting to blink or move a muscle. Syoaran just stood there with a frown on his embarrassed and sad face.
'I have to tell her the truth, Tomoyo doesn't know the half of it and made it seem like it was all my fault...at least I don't think it was. I have to find someway to tell her soon, please god help me out." Syoaran said looking up at the ceiling of the stage. Just then everyone stiffened up from nervousness for their teachers booming voice echoed throughout the whole theatre.
"And now, the moment you have all been waiting patiently for, please sit back and applaud for my class and their amazing play called "What You See is What You Get"
Everyone clapped loudly as the red curtain began to slowly rise up. ................................................................................................................
N/A: ha ha ha yep, the play is about to begin and I wonder who Sakura will kiss, will it be Eriol or Syaoran who knows. So neways this may not be a fairly good chapter but the next one should be pretty interesting *wink wink* and again thanks to all of you who are reading my fic. Ill try and update asap so don't fret too much. Bye!
