chapter 6: the day after

Sakura's p.o.v

The sweet sound of my alarm clock woke me up. I never knew that I would miss it so much! I thought about the guy who saved me yesterday, I wish I could see him again! I got out of bed and started to skip to the bathroom.

After I finished getting dressed I walked down the stairs humming. I sat down at the table and started eating. I could tell that my father was running late because the pancakes were warm.

Then reality hit me when I took a glance at the door. Touya would come home drunk, smelling worse and worse everyday. And Stephen would never leave me alone. And that guy, I'll never see him again, and he probably doesn't want to see me ever.

But something was different, instead of the front door being swang open and a waft of rey bad smelling air coming from it, Touya came out from his bedroom door, dressed properly and showered, with rey nice aftershave.

Touya's p.o.v

I came out of my bedroom waiting for Sakura to finish off her breakfast. I walked down the stairs humming. 'Hey lil Saku,' I greeted rubbing her head. She just looked at me dumbfounded.

I knew she wasn't going say a word so I started off the conversation, 'I guess you like my pancakes.' I sat down in my seat waiting for a reply. She swowed what was in her mouth and said, 'You made this?'

'Uh-huh, you better hurry up, I'm giving you a lift,' I told her, drinking a glass of orange juice I left on the table. She started choking on the pancake that was in her mouth, 'Huh? You're going to drive me?'

'Yeah,' I replied, placing the glass on the table. 'You're not... drunk are you?' she asked. I started laughing. 'Nope, hurry up, or you're going to be late, sis,' I told her. I place the glass in the sink and walked out the door, getting the car ready.

Tomoyo's p.o.v

Sakura walked into class looking pretty confused. 'Sakura, what's up?' I asked pulling out her chair. 'My brother, he just dropped me off to school,' she explained. 'Oh my god, don't tell he crashed the car!' I said shocked.

Sakura just laughed, 'No, he was fine, I'm just surprised that he made me breakfast, had a shower and drove me to school in the same day.' 'Wow, that is pretty shocking,' I told her.

She nodded and then the teacher came in. 'Good morning class,' she said placing her stuff on the desk. 'Good morning, miss,' the class replied. 'We have a new student in our class,' she said, 'please make Syaoran Li welcome.'

Sakura started nudging me, 'that's the guy, that's the guy who saved me.' 'Wow, he is pretty cute,' I said. He walked up and smiled at Sakura, who smiled back; her face was like a tomato!

He sat behind us, next to Eriol. Later on in the lesson we turned around and I introduced myself, 'hey, I'm Tomoyo, and this is Sakura.' 'Oh, so you're the girl Eriol wouldn't stop talking about,' Syaoran said with a smirk.

Eriol's p.o.v

I can't believe he just said that! 'His only joking, right Syaoran,' I said putting him in a headlock. 'Yeah,' he said trying to free himself from my grip. I let go. 'Hey, I remember you, from yesterday,' Syaoran said to Sakura.

'Huh? Yeah,' she said coyly, 'Did I thank you?' 'You did now,' he said smiling. I was wondering what he was talking about, then I heard a familiar voice screaming outside. I dropped my head and could hear everyone running to the windows looking at what was happening.

'What's wrong, Eriol,' asked the sweet Tomoyo. 'Huh?' my face went red, 'It's Touya and my sister, they are at it again.' I let out a sigh. 'Again, aw man,' Sakura fell back in her seat.

'You're so dense, Touya!' I heard Naruku yell. 'I'm Dense! I'm dense! What about you, little miss prissy!' Touya yelled back. 'At least I take care of my little brother! You wouldn't know anything about your sister! Do you even care about her?! You probably wouldn't even know if one of you're friends harass her!' Naruku yelled, I know she wasn't going to give up this fight.

I saw Sakura sink into her chair. 'I'm so sorry about this, Sakura,' I told her. 'It's okay,' she said, trying to smile. 'I do care about her!' Touya yelled. 'Man, this is going to ugly,' Tomoyo said.

'Maybe they like each other, you know what they say, you hurt the one you love,' Syaoran said. Sakura and I looked at each other and burst out laughing, Sakura ended up on the floor rolling around. 'Don't count on it,' I told Syaoran, trying to catch my breath.

Syaoran's p.o.v

I got to know Sakura much better, she seems a bit shy though. I wonder why she wanted to kill herself; she seems like a pretty happy person. 'Looks are deceiving,' Sakura said. 'Huh?' did I say that too loud. 'I don't get it, why can't people see through her plastic face!' Tomoyo said, looking at a girl walking past with a group of girl behind her and guys drooling over her.

'Syaoran, I saw you starring at her, do you like her?' asked Eriol nudging me. I started to go red and looked at Sakura. 'No way, I don't even know her,' I replied. 'You soon will, here comes the princess,' Tomoyo said rolling her eyes.

'Move out of my way Sakura,' the girl said pushing Sakura, who landed on her butt. 'Hey, I'm Mary, but you can c me beautiful,' she said flashing her fake eyelashes. 'You're very modest,' I said sarcasticy. She hugged my arm and started drawing circles around my button with her finger, 'So we both agree that I am the most beautiful thing you've even seen, you're so sweet.'

I removed her hands from my body, 'Uh... yeah sure, whatever.' I helped Sakura up. 'Ew! You're friends with her,' Mary said crossing her arms. 'Yeah, why?' I asked. Sakura dusted her self off.

'She's so weird! And so clumsy! Anyways, I'll see you around honey,' she said winking at me. 'Uh-huh,' I couldn't wait for her to leave. Finy she did. 'Aw man!' I said leaning back.

'What, do you miss her?' asked Eriol nudging me. 'Do you?' I asked looking at him. 'No way, I'm glad she's gone!' said Eriol. 'Oh yeah, because now you're with Tomo-' Eriol covered my mouth and gave me a noogie and whispered, 'Shut up Syaoran!'

Sakura's p.o.v

After school I walked to the café. I swear I could slap Mary, and Stephen! God, when will he stop it! I put on my apron and started doing my work. I had to wash the dishes with Mimi.

'Hey, how was school?' I asked. 'Boring, like always, I wish something good would happen! What about yours?' she replied. 'Same, except there is this new guy in my class,' I could feel my face burning, just the thought of him makes me smile.

'Oh rey, give me details,' said Mimi nudging me. 'Well, we met yesterday, and his rey cute!' I said starring up at the roof. 'What happened yesterday?' asked Mimi. 'Huh?' I didn't want to tell her that I tried to commit suicide, 'I was at the cliffs, next to the beach and I accidenty slipped, and he caught me.' 'I wish he didn't,' added Mary.

'Go to hell Mary,' Mimi said. 'This must be hell, coz you're here!' said Mary, 'and Sakura, you missed a spot!' she bumped into me making my drop the plate. 'Sakura!!!' Nick yelled.

'Sorry boss,' I apologised. 'Come here with me,' he beckoned me. I followed him out to the back. 'Sakura, what's wrong with you, you've been like this week,' Nick told me. 'It's not me... it's-' 'Mary, I know, you told me but I find that very hard to believe,' Nick said.

'You know you're my favourite employee,' Nick continued, 'but if you keep on breaking plates, I'm sorry to say but you're going to have to leave.' 'Boss!' Mimi ran out the back door, 'It was Mary, I saw her with my own eyes!' I can't believe that she was defending me.

'Mimi, how many times have I told you not to butt in,' said Nick. 'Sorry boss,' she said looking the other way. 'I'll keep a close watch on Mary okay, now get back to work,' said Nick.

I looked at the door and saw Mary watching then she quickly ran off. I went back to my job. 'Oh my god, I can't believe her! She was ears dropping; now she's going to be acting like an angel! Fuck man, I wish we had a camera!' complained Mimi. 'Yeah, me too,' I agree, rubbing the plates.

'Oh my god, I am like, so smart!' said Mimi. 'What do you mean?' I asked. 'What do you mean, "What I do mean?"' said Mimi, 'you're friend's mother owns a toy company right? Ask her if she could get us a camera.' 'What? I am not spying on her!' I disagreed. 'It's not spying, it's just, watching over her, come on! Do it!' ordered Mimi. 'Alright, alright,' I said.

'Syaoran, you came to see me,' I over heard Mary said. 'Oh, is that the new guy,' asked Mimi, checking him out. 'Yeah,' I said scrubbing the plates harder. 'Actuy, I came here to see Sakura,' Syaoran corrected her.

'Oh my god, did you hear that?' said Mimi excitedly. 'Why would he want to see me?' I asked. 'He digs you, girl. Come on, get out there, I'll tell boss that you're on you're lunch break, now go out there and have some fun!' Mimi pushed me out.

'Oh hey, Syaoran,' I said nervously. 'Hey, am I disturbing you?' he said with a smile. I could feel my knee becoming weak, thank god I'm holding onto the counter, 'No, you're not, I'm just going to take my lunch break,' I told him.

Mimi's p.o.v

I walked over to boss, 'Hey, Sakura is taking her lunch break and I'm just going to start taking peoples orders okay, thanks.' I wiped my hands and grabbed the pad and a pencil.

Has I asked people for there orders I checked up on Sakura to make sure she was doing well. 'Hey,' I said to her. 'Oh hey,' she replied. 'Who's you're friend?' I asked, with a smile. 'Oh, Syaoran, this is Mimi, Mimi this is Syaoran,' said Sakura with a sweet smile.

'Nice to meet you,' he said, putting out his hand. I shook it and said, 'you're very polite, you got a great boyfriend Sakura.' 'What? Mimi... he isn't my boyfriend, yet... I mean, his just a friend,' Sakura was stumbling over her words. 'Yeah, exactly, he is a boy and a friend, so his your boyfriend,' I teased. I could see Sakura's face going red.

'Anyway's, what can I get you two?' I asked. 'I'll have an iced chocolate thanks, and you want?' asked Syaoran. 'I'll have the same thanks,' answered Sakura. 'Two iced chocolates, coming up, and nice hair,' I said.

'Hey, two iced chocolates, and make it quick,' I ordered. 'Hey, you can't tell me what to do!' Mary said, giving me dirties. 'But I bet Syaoran can,' I said. She started on the order, mumbling under her breath. I loved seeing her like this.

I turned around to see what Sakura was up to. I could see that Syaoran guy toty likes her; why else would he come here. 'Here's you're order, sir,' said Mary. 'Good dog,' I said patting her head.

I walked over to their table, 'here's you're order.' 'Thanks,' said Sakura. 'No problem, have a good time,' I said giving them the bill. I got other peoples' orders, trying to hear what they were saying.

'So, Sakura, what are you doing on the weekend?' Syaoran asked, taking a sip. 'Working I guess,' Sakura answered. 'Oh, okay,' Syaoran said, looking down into the glass.

'But if you want, we could go some where, I mean I'll just see if I can swap shifts with someone,' said Sakura. 'I would like that,' Syaoran said smiling. 'Oh hey, I better get back to work, I'll pay for it,' Sakura said.

'No, let me, please, then next time you can take me out,' Syaoran compromised. 'Alright then,' Sakura said. 'Keep the change,' Syaoran winked at her and left waving. Sakura picked up the glasses and brought it to the counter.

'So, how did it go?' I asked. 'I think you know, ears dropper,' Sakura teased. 'Hey, I had to look out for you to, you know, make sure this guy will treat you right! You're like my little sister,' I admitted.

'Thanks, and you're like my big sister, except that you're rey bossy!' said Sakura. I started chasing her around and tickling her. If I ever had a little sister, I'm glad it's her.
