First Day of School

13 years later…

17 year old Sakura and her friends entered the classroom, ready to greet their very punctual friend. But to their surprise, she's not there!

"I don't believe it! We got here before Tomoyo-chan does!" Sakura said in disbelief.

"Wow! Maybe were early." Naoko looked at her watch and her eyes widened. "15 minutes till school starts! Maybe she's sick."

"Hai, she must be sick because people's punctuality are eaten by the lazy bugs and—"

WHAPACK!

Now, there is a growing bump on Yamazaki's head.

BEEP, BEEP…

An alarm clock interrupted Tomoyo's slumber. She looked at it, half asleep but after seeing the time, she jumped out of bed, took a quick shower and went straight to the car, without taking her breakfast.

'I woke up late, I'm so hungry and now, I'm going o be late for class! This is so unlikely to be me.' After a few minutes, they're in front of the school building. Tomoyo quickly went out of the car and ran as fast as she could. Unluckily, since it's her last year in that school and her batch is the oldest, their rooms are at the last floor of the building. When she was a few inches away from her classroom, she bumped into a someone but didn't notice who he/she is because she's in a hurry. She muttered a soft and almost inaudible 'sorry'.

As soon as their teacher entered, everyone went back to their seats and kept quiet.

"Now, let's check the attendance." The teacher spoke. He mentioned names until… "Daidouji Tomoyo."

Exactly after the last syllable, as if on a cue, the door opened, revealing a panting and exhausted Tomoyo.

"Here." She raised her hand, still at the door. Sakura had two empty seats beside her so she decided to sit on the one closer to her best friend. After everyone has been called, their teacher made an announcement. Everyone listened attentively, except for Tomoyo who's looking at the window, still can not believe that she was late.

"We have a transfer student from England. He's Hiiragizawa Eriol."

After hearing his name, Eriol entered the classroom.

"Please take a seat, Mr. Hiiragizawa."

Girls were moving the vacant seats beside them, giving a hint for Eriol to sit there. Some shoved their seatmate out of the chair. He scanned the room to find a vacant seat that is no where near those girls. After finding the 'perfect' seat, he moved towards it.

Tomoyo's gaze was interrupted when someone sat on the seat beside her, which is beside the window.

"You look familiar. Have I seen you before?" Tomoyo thought out loud well, loud enough for her new seatmate to hear.

"If you consider bumping into me this morning, then yes." Eriol said smoothly.

"Oh, that was you? Sorry." She gave a nervous smile. "I'm Daidouji Tomoyo."

'That name sounds familiar…' "You already know me, don't you?" Since their teacher already introduced him to the class.

She bit her lip and shrugged.

"Not listening, are we?" He smirked. "I'm Hiiragizawa Eriol. Nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you too." She smiled. Their conversation was interrupted when the teacher spoke.

"Now, we will be picking the class president." The teacher started. "Any nominations? And I just want to remind you that you cannot nominate yourself."

Sakura raised her hand, high up in the air. "Yes, Ms. Kinomoto."

"I would like to nominate my smart and responsible best friend, Daidouji Tomoyo." Sakura said boastfully but she knew she was right. Hearing this, Tomoyo blushed and Eriol chuckled.

"Responsible?" He whispered to Tomoyo. "Is being late in class called responsible?"

Tomoyo giggled. Two more students were nominated and they started the votation. After totaling all the votes, the class representative of the school year is to be revealed.

"Our elected class president is… Ms. Daidouji. Please stand up."

Everyone applauded. "Your first task is to show Mr. Hiiragizawa around. You will be excused until recess. You may go now."

Tomoyo and Eriol stood up and head to the door.

"Congratulations. Your best friend is really proud of you." Eriol said as they exited the room.

"What made you say that?"

"You can hear it clearly from her voice."

She giggled. "Anyway, let's start with our 'tour'." He nodded.

After showing him everything he needs to know and see, they sat on the bench outside the school building. Tomoyo looked at her wrist watch. "Wow, we finished early. We still have 15 minutes left till recess."

"Daidouji-san, since I'm new, is it okay if I join you and your friends on our break times?"

"Sure."

"Thanks. Can you tell me about them?"

"My friends?" Eriol nodded. "Okay. We are 7, including me. Sakura is very energetic and somewhat childish. Syaoran is overprotective and short-tempered."

"Overprotective?" Eriol raised an eyebrow.

"Yes. On me and Sakura."

"Why?"

"Because Sakura is his girlfriend and me, he said that I remind him of his little sister who was raped and killed by her boyfriend. Anyway, Rika is very lady-like and a very good cook. Naoko loves supernatural things and can sometimes be very gullible. Yamazaki is very, umm… he has a very, very wild imagination and Chiharu is a… a human lie detector and very… brave."

"You have very interesting friends." Eriol smiled. "Do you mind telling me about yourself?"

"Well, I don't know haw to describe myself. Since we're going to be friends, you'll surely know me soon." The bell rang. "There goes the bell. Let's go so you can meet my friends." They both stood up and headed to their class room.

"Tomoyo-chan! You're so lucky you're excused from class." Sakura said as soon as she saw her best friend.

"Is it okay if Hiiragizawa-kun joins us?" Tomoyo asked.

"Sure." Chiharu agreed.

"Did Tomoyo-chan tell you about us?" Naoko asked.

"Hai."

"What did she say?" Syaoran asked.

"Hmm… she said that Sakura is energetic and childish. Syaoran is overprotective and short-tempered. Rika is very lady-like and a good cook. Naoko likes supernatural things and sometimes gullible. Yamazaki has a very wild imagination."

"Very wild imagination? More like a liar!" Chiharu stopped eating and objected.

"I am not a liar. I say what I know is true." Yamazaki replied.

"Whatever. You can continue now, Hiiragizawa-kun." Chiharu continued eating.

Eriol nodded. "Chiharu is a human lie detector and very brave."

Yamazaki chuckled. "Tomoyo is really good at finding euphemisms! Chicharu, brave? She's violent! And unlike Rika and Tomoyo, she is the worst cook that landed on the planet!"

Steam came out of Chiharu's ears and after 2 seconds, another bump grew on Yamazaki's head.

A/N: I'm so sorry I wasn't able to update last Thursday. I had to sleep early, which is around 9:00pm! Anyway, we went to Boracay, Philippines. I'm not sure if you have heard of it but it's a really great beach. If you didn't know, I'm from the Philippines so I'm just a local tourist.
