For any of you who are confused as to why this story seems to be going fast, I have some answers: If you think the coupling is coming to fast, please don't worry about it, Sakura doesn't like him like that yet, she thinks of him as a friend and only a friend…for now, Syaoran on the other hand likes her (it all has to do with the stories plot), and as for that kiss, come on you guys it was just a thank-you kiss, a chaste kiss, Chaste means pure, and simple, innocent, in other words nothing lol. And as for the story (in general) is going to fast, I'm sorry for that, but I can assure you it will all work out in the end and I'll try to slow down.
You guys may hate me for wut im doing to this story, but I kinda lost my plot and this was what I thought of. Here's the first of a few twists.
Thanks for everyone who reviewed my story You give me inspiration, and the littlest review will make my day:Gives cookies:
Chapter 6
Sakura sat in her room, brushing though her honey colored hair. She slowly put down her brush, and brushed across a golden locket she had for a long while. She couldn't look at it but her eyes drifted to it's engraving. A simple question. 'We still best friends?'. She knew what was inside, no doubt in her mind, but could she answer it herself? What he didn't know about how she felt...She gingerly picked it up and hug it up on a hook near her mirror; a constant reminder.
She was She was frustrated, She had school today, and she didn't feel like going. She thought 'Maybe I could ditch?' She sweat dropped lightly, 'and get scolded by everyone.' Speaking of school
She remembered her class would find out the roles for the play today, and her thoughts brightened a bit. 'Maybe I'll get the role I wanted?'
She got dressed and ready for the day, and ran down her stairs, almost tripping on a sock- which she proclaimed was the largest sock she ever saw and tried to kill her. She regained her balance and ran out her front door. She was in a rush, for she lost track of time, and would be late for school.
Sakura walked with a quick pace, the hair she was spending the time she had, got put once again into a disarray. She arrived at the school, and ran into her class room as the bell rang. All eyes were on her, as she slowly sat at her desk. 'Er...look away...please...' She sighed lightly and greeted her friends.
"Hey Sakura," Tomoyo and Meiling said happily. As Eriol and Syaoran gave her a nod. A silence arose in the class, as small murmurs of the play came about.
Minutes passed before the teacher made his way into the room. "Sorry for the wait class, I had to enroll a new student"
Wonder passed over the class, to whom the new student would be. Sakura sighed softly 'how quickly peoples thoughts change, what about the play?' Sakura got bored, sure she wanted to know who the new student would be, but she'd find out soon enough.
She began twirling her pencil, as her friends carried out a conversation behind her.
"Class meet, Joshua Cassidy" The teacher greeted to a tall boy, with black messy hair and light blue eyes.
Sakura's head snapped forward to the name. Her eyes widened lightly, as the guy's face held a pearly smile. Her stomach flip-flopped as her voice caught in her throat, she couldn't believe her eyes.
"Call me Josh please," He said off hand with a accent, and the teacher nodded lightly.
"Sit in front of Sakura for now, Sakura please raise your hand so he knows where to sit."
Sakura looked on dazed, she couldn't move she was stunned to her spot, memories flooded her mind. Her eyes nearly watered.
"I know who she is already" He replied with a light chuckle to his voice, and walked up to her, and greeted with a smile.
"Hello Sakura, long time eh?" The newcomer said lowering his voice slightly, as he took a seat in front of her.
"...Josh...You idiot!" Sakura yelled out with a hint of sadness, happiness, anger, and relief, as she punched him in the arm.
"Hey! Hey! That is no way to treat your old friend! Come on! Im sorry!" Josh yelled playfully, blocking her punches.
"You never even kept in touch!" Sakura yelled in a rage continuing to punch at him.
"No! I called that one time! You never answered! So I figured you never wanted to talk to me!" He said lowering his voice lightly, catching her fists.
"That,...was you?" Sakura whispered out softly, dropping her hands lightly.
"Yeah, it was" His eyes averted to the man sitting behind her, tension filling the air.
"Miss Sakura, and Mr. Josh, Please continue your conversation after class." The teachers voice tore their argument. Josh turned in his seat before whispering, "We'll catch up a little later"
"Now then, I have good news, and bad news...what do you want to hear first?"
The class roared for the good news. Because they figured it was for the play.
"Okay the good news is, I have the girls roles, for our play, they'll be posted on the board after class...Bad news...I don't have the guy parts...I apologize in advance." The teacher replied shortly, hearing female cheers and passive guys groans.
Sakura sat with an odd feeling, Sure she felt happy, but something more. She anticipated the end of school, She wanted to catch up with Josh, and she wanted to know what role she would get in the play. The time was killing her.
A few hours went by and she sat there hearing a lecture about plays, which she happened to already know. She tapped her pencil, against the wooden desk, eventually coming up with a steady beat. She got bored of that soon after and laid her head on the desk.
"And the Dramatic pause gives...blah blah blah, yadda yadda yadda" The teacher continued his rant on plays.
Sakura felt a piece of paper stick to her arm. She looked at it; it was a yellow post-it note... She looked confused and read it. (A/N: ': post it conversation:') :Hey Kura, This class always this borin'-Josh:
Sakura laughed inwardly, and wrote back to him :Eh, kinda, So what brings you back here Josh:
She stuck it to his tan arm, and watched him grab it. A few minutes went by and a new post-it came. :Why to see you of course:) Why? You want me gone? Cuz I'll leave: Sakura knew his answer would be sarcasm of some kind. And replied:No! Stay, Cuz I said so:
And so there post-it conversation continued to keep them from going insane...
The end of class signaled as the teacher taped the roles to the board. Girls mad dashed to the front, there hopes answered or lost.
Sakura decided to wait until the class cleared out more, before she finally went to the front of the paper.
"She'll get it, she has to have! I feel it!" Tomoyo said in anticipation.
"Of course she will..." Syaoran said sighing, leaning against a desk. His mind was messed up, he kept thinking he lost something, but what did he lose?
Meiling looked back at Josh, he was just sitting there, watching Sakura. Her mind wandered as well, 'Were they something more then just friends?...poor Syaoran...'
Sakura walked back with teary eyes. And everyone's face dropped... "You guys...I didn't get it..."
Everyone walked to her, "Sakura im so sorry!" On the other hand, Josh slowly walked to her as she looked up at him with teary eyes. He took him thumb and wiped away her tears, as she looked at him, her eyes telling a private joke. He flicked her in the nose, "Don't be mean Kura, It's not nice to lie to your friends." Syaoran, Meiling, and Tomoyo's eyes widened. Didn't he even care?
Sakura smiled softly, "Awhhh, but I wanted to..." She looked at her friends, "No I really got the part, just felt like messing with you, But Josh here had to ruin it!"
"Sakura! That wasn't fair, I thought you actually didn't get it!" Tomoyo yelled out. "Im sorry Tomoyo, but I just had too"
They all broke into cheers for the latest news on her part. And walked out of the classroom.
The day was over, and they were saying their goodbyes. "Well it was very nice meeting you Josh," Tomoyo said heading off to her home. Meiling said her good byes and left, As did Eriol and Syaoran.
"So, You leaving too?" Sakura asked Josh who stood next to her at the time. "It wouldn't be right if I just let you walk home by yourself" He told her with a smile.
His smile. Sakura remembered he always smiled, he always did, no matter what, even if he was upset, He'd always cheer her up with that smile. "You don't have to, I can wa-"
"But I want to, so no more excuses, lets go" He said cheerfully, beginning their walk.
Sakura walked in there peaceful silence. 'He looks so different...' "Is it really you Josh?" She said nearly a whisper.
He looked at her "Of course it is silly" He replied with a chuckle. Sakura looked at him with a small smile, "Im sorry, I had to make sure, you don't seem like my dopey little friend."
His jaw dropped, "Me? Look at you, you aren't my dorky best friend Kura any more." He laughed at her face.
She raised her eyebrow, "So what are you implyin'?" He looked away laughing, "Oh nothin'"
"No fair! Tell me" Sakura pouted, and hit him in the arm. "Oh yeah, I know you love touching me." Sakura's eyes flickered playfully, as she slowly rubbed her hand down his arm, and then down his chest, "Oh yes, how did you know?" She asked seductively.
"I knew from the beginning babe," he played along as they saw a group of girls go by, and wrapped his arms around Sakura's slim waist. The girls stopped mid step watching them with wide eyes. Josh and Sakura enclosed the gap between them, their lips completely missing. As they heard the girls gasps, they laughed, "How long you think they'll wait there Kura?" Josh whispered to her, laying his forehead on hers.
Sakura felt mix emotions, they've tricked people like this so many times...but why this time did it feel so right? That they were in each others arms. "I don't know...what should we do?"
He broke away from her, adding, "Kura as much as I would love to show the world how much I love you, We are in the middle of a sidewalk, lets go."
Sakura nodded and laughed, walking with him, "Yes, you're right," And waved to the stunned girls.
They made it to Sakura's house catching up on what happened, how it was were he lived, and more about him. They talked about anything and everything.
They made it up the doorway and Josh stood right beside her. Sakura knocked on the door, and waited for someone to answer the door.
The door opened to see her brother and her dad, "Sakura the door wasn't locked what's-"
"Hello," Josh greeted stepping toward them with a small bow. There eyes widened as they realized who it was.
"Josh! What are you doing back? We thought you left" Sakura's dad asked ruefully.
