LOOK SMART

Chapter 4: Part B

"Hey there girlire!" Tomoyo waited for me by my locker as she always

does before our literature class together. "How was tutor boy? Did you guys have

fun, learning together?" She laughed and had this devilish grin.

"Stop, you're going to make me sick! Don't imply anything sexual about

me and Li!"

"Oh, so there's a 'you and Li' now? I don't think you were the type to

put out Sakura!" She laughed relentlessly while I began to gag. "Fine, I'll stop!"

"Thank you." I said while grabbing my literauture book. We walked slowly

to our class since we had about two minutes before the bell rang.

"Besides, what's so wrong with Li?"

"Nothing, really. He's just not my type."

"What? Handsome, intelligent, and sweet isn't your type?"

"You only met him yesterday, for about ten minutes. How could you

possibly have gotten those qualities from that one meeting? And if he's so good

then why don't you go out with him yourself?"

"Because Sakura, my darling," she wrapped her arm around my shoulder,

"I am not the one who is head over heels in love with him!"

"As if! If anything I'm in love with Er--, umm erasers!"

"Erasers?" she repeatedly incredulously.

"Yeah, you know me... tasty little things aren't they?" I stepped into my

english class and quickly took my seat. God, I hope she doesn't figure me out. I

slid into my desk and opened the book to hide my tomato red face. Tomoyo took

her usual seat behind me. I could feel her eyes burn through my back. 'Just calm

down!' I told myself. Mayeb she won't remember, maybe she'll let it go. Yeah ,

just maybe. Yeah right! This is Tomoyo we're talking about. Suddenly her

thoughts were interrupted.

Li dragged himself into his seat, still weak from the beating he had

yesterday. He took out his text book and opened it to any page, letting his head

fall flat into it. He just stayed that way for a couple of moments. I looked at him

in awe. Even though he was all bruised up she couldn't believe how adorable he

looked. His tousled brown hair fell acros his forehead while his mouth was opened

a bit. I simply couldn't get over how cute he looked.

The bell rang as a signal for lunch to start.

"Sakura! Why the hell didn't you wake me up?!" Li yelled leaving the

classroom. He ran his hand through his hair try to shake off all of the chalk dust.

But I couldn't stop laughing. It was the most funniest thing I had ever seen.

"I tried," I lied, "but you wouldn't wake up!" I continued to laugh.

"You're such a liar!" Tomoyo chimed in. "If anything Sakura was the one

pointing the finger."

"Damn, teacher! He has no right to throw the eraser at me. So what if I

fell asleep in his damn class!" Li began to cough as he inhaled some of the dust.

"Li, you were snoring so loud the teacher next door had to come by and

tell us to keep it down!" I couldn't stop laughing. He looked so cute with dust all

over him.

"Well, I still hold you responsible Sakura!" Li yelled. "So you're going to

have to stay with me after school today!"

"There's no way in hell I would ever agree to that!" Li leaned over to me

and began to whisper in my ear.

"Or I'll tell Tomoyo about you little crush!" He pulled away. "So, I'll see

you today after school!" Li ran off to meet up with his friends.

"You ass!" I screamed in the hallway making everyone stop and stare.

"Sakura!" Tomoyo scolded.

"I hate him, I hate him, I hate him!!" I screamed storming off. Tomoyo

stood there in shock as everyone else stared at her. Tomoyo laughed sheepishly.

"She uh, has her you know, period." Everyone in the hallway groaned

and nodded at the same time as they went back to whatever they were doing at

them moment as Tomoyo tried to exit as graceful as she could.

AN: This chapter kind of sucks. Oh well, I'll try harder the next time! So please

don't stop reading. And if you have any advice that would be great!
