Summary: Sakura Kinomoto is a natural nerd. She moves to a new school and starts a new life, people like her much better. But when Syaoran, from her old school comes, will he change Sakura back to what she was before, or will he be able to accept this new popular princess?
Note: I am sorry for the odd old chapter 24. I know it was weird, and I was writing it at 12pm in the morning XD! Anyhow this is the new chapter, please forget the old one.
Sakura was sitting in the family room watching TV. Using the remote she switched channel after channel trying to look for a good show. Sakura groaned. "What happened to all the good ol' cartoons?" she wondered. Her father, who was cooking in the kitchen chuckled. "Sakura why don't you do some of your homework?" her father asked. Sakura turned around and stared at him in disbelief. "Why would I want to do my homework?" Sakura asked exasperated. Fujitaka chuckled again at Sakura's comments.
Ring ring. Ring ring. The telephone was ringing loudly through out the house. "Sakura can you get that?" Fujitaka asked. "I'm kind of busy with this." he pointed at the vegetables. Sakura tried reaching the phone from the coach but her arms were not long enough. "Evil phone." Sakura muttered and lazily standing up she grabbed the phone.
"Hello, Kinomoto residence. Sakura speaking." Sakura spoke into the phone.
"Hi Sakura, it's Tomoyo!"
"Oh hi Tomoyo!" Sakura glanced at her father and walked out of the room. She never liked her father listening to her phone conversations.
"So what did you call me for?" Sakura asked.
"Do you want to come to the swimming pool with some friends and I? It'll be really different since we've never seen you anywhere but at school."
Sakura thought. "Sure just let me ask my dad." Sakura walked into the kitchen to her Fujitaka and asked if she could go swimming with her friends.
Fujitaka looked thoughtful. "I want you to eat dinner first. Then you can go swimming ok? Maybe you could even have these friends of yours here to eat!" he added. Sakura told Tomoyo and they agreed that after they all had dinner at the Kinomoto house and after they would go to the pool. Sakura hung up the phone and began helping Fujitaka with the cooking.
An hour past and finally the food was ready. Sakura laid everything on the table and at that moment the door bell rang. "Just on time!" Sakura father exclaimed smiling. Sakura father crossed the hallway towards the door while Sakura set the table. Sakura could hear many voices. 'I didn't think it was that many people.' thought Sakura. By the time she looked up she saw Tomoyo, Rika, Chiharu, Eriol, Yamzaki, Reo and Syaoran already seated at the table. Sakura felt the colour rise to her face. 'Syaoran is here!' thought Sakura. Sakura shot a look at Tomoyo but Tomoyo just giggled and began talking to Rika.
Syaoran seemed to feel uncomfortable too, and he seemed to blush even more when Sakura was left to sit right in front of him. Syaoran seemed very interested in the table cloth at the moment. Fujitaka failed to notice this all and began gesturing everyone to eat up! After eating a bit everyone began to speak. "You have a very beautiful house Mr.Kinomoto." Eriol complimented gazing at the chandelier with it's sparkling light.
Fujitaka smiled and said thank you. "Do you work at the University? I have heard your name mentioned before." Eriol went on. "Yes, I am a teacher there." Fujitaka replied. Everyone looked at Fujitaka oddly. They didn't like teachers much. "Don't worry I probably will never go to your school to teach." Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. "How is it at your school anyhow? I hear Sakura is doing much better there!" Sakura turned redder then red. "Yes there was this one boy who kept bothering her. What was his name?" Fujitaka placed his hand on his chin thinking. Sakura got up from the table.
"Let's go now shall we?" Sakura said shaking. Everyone was bewildered but Reo gave them glares and they all stood up and left the room. "Ah well ok I hope to talk to you soon!" Sakura's father said. Eriol stayed at the table. "I want to hear about the boy who bothered Sakura!" he complained. Tomoyo put her hands on her hips and Eriol seeing defeat leapt up and said good bye.
"Opps I have to get my towel and stuff be right back!" Sakura dashed up the stairs and grabbed her things coming back downstairs in mere minutes. "Ok ready. How are we getting there anyways?" Sakura asked. Everyone grinned. "We're going in Tomoyo's cool car!" Chiharu said happily. Tomoyo seemed embarrassed but they all shuffled out the house and Sakura locked the door behind her.
Tomoyo black limo was already parked in Sakura drive way and they all got in. Sakura felt like the one embarrassed now because she was sitting right next to Syaoran. It didn't seem like there was much room with all the bags and things so Sakura felt like she was a little too close to Syaoran. Syaoran also seemed nervous about this too. 'How did this come to happen?' thought Sakura. The car started driving and Tomoyo started up the conversation like always.
"Ok so we're going swimming! Everyone brought there gear?" she asked. Everyone nodded. "Do we have to pay to get in?" asked Rika. "I forgot to bring money just in case." Tomoyo shook her head. "I'm paying for you all!" everyone cheered at that! But then Reo slumped in his seat and pulled his cap over his face. Sakura poked him. Reo tried slapping Sakura but she backed away into Syaoran. Sakura realized this and returned to her normal seat. Tomoyo giggled. "What's wrong Reo?" asked Chiharu worriedly. "Eh I'm tired that's all we played soccer all yesterday it was tiring. Right Li?" Reo turned to face Syaoran with his cap still over his face.
Syaoran nodded. The two boys were both on the soccer team. "Man did you knock out that other guy?" said Reo in awe and he put his cap away from his face. Syaoran glared. "I didn't knock him out. He was juts temporarily unconscious when he caught the soccer ball. It's not my fault he doesn't know how to catch good." everyone sweat dropped. Then laughed loudly. Syaoran stared at them all confused at them all.
Authour's Note:
This chapter was only created to redo the old chapter 24. Next chapter will be done tomorrow and they will be at the swimming pool.
