If you guys must know, No, I haven't died yet. Classes start on Monday and I took the liberty to enjoy my summer vacation and work at our newly opened store… I was also lazy as hell.
But I'm back and that's what matters… right? Looks hopeful
"How about the princess of Ruby Kingdom? Is it Meiling? Because you know w/ her eyes and all..."
Err… No comment? (o.o)
"Hehe, Li is so cute! But I like Eriol more...is he going to be in this fic?"
Yes… And a very important role he will play. Cackles evilly
"And why wasn't Syaoran shocked when Sakura asked him that? Isn't he going to wonder how she might know and stuff?"
Uhm… err… whistles Oh wow! It's a shooting star! Runs away
"Hey... This idea seems like the idea of... Cosmic Baton Girl, or on the Animax channel in the Philippines: Princess Comet."
Oh… Pilipino ka rin ba? Hehehe… Oo nga diba! Pero di ko naman ginaya eh… Iyong main plot lang… pero may mga iniba ako… Mwahahaha…
Your answers are correct! I'm sure you guys are going to hate me for this chapter. Cowers in fear. But look at the bright side; you'll get Super SS Fluff in the coming chapters! That is something to be happy about right?
Chapter III: Who is he?
He gazed out into the open field as the summer breeze touched each blade of grass. The sun was rising, its rays reflecting the small dew drops on the bleachers. As he leaned on the rusting wire fence he noticed some movement on the soccer pitch…
He jogged his way down the cemented stairs; the silhouettes on the pitch became clearer with each step. He sat down on the last step as he observed him… and her.
A blank expression formed on his face.
She noticed him as she was walking towards the ocean; it was an hour before dawn and a perfect day for a peaceful walk on the sandy beach.
She scrunched up her face as she tried to remember what the name of this place was. Her face brightened as her emerald gems twinkled in delight.
"This is a soccer field" she stated as she nodded her head twice.
She beamed at her accomplishment and gazed at the figure on the verdant field. She stepped down the stairs until she made it to the bottom.
He looked at her for a moment before breaking out into a small smile.
"Hey there" he said.
She smiled back. "Hi…"
He was wearing a red shirt with black outlines at the sleeves. A small dragon was embedded at the right sleeve with thick black thread. He was wearing jogging pants and worn-out white, turning gray, sneakers.
"New here?"
She nodded. "Yeah"
Sakura noticed his attire and the black and white balls scattered around.
"What are you doing?"
"Practicing"
"For what?"
He sighed. "Championship"
She looked at him with a lost expression. "Excuse me?"
She stepped closer resulting in a mild crunching sound of the grass.
He grinned sheepishly as he rubbed the back of his neck.
"Forgot you were new here" he laughed as he turned to her.
"Tomoeda has this annual soccer Championship between all the district schools"
She nodded once. Tomoyo explained to her that Chiharu was a cheerleader for the soccer team. Soccer is a ball game using no hands: a game in which two teams of 11 players try to score by kicking or butting a round ball into the net goals on either end of a rectangular field. Only the goalkeeper may play the ball with a hand or arm, her cousin explained.
"Want to play?"
She blushed as she shook her head. "I don't know how"
He placed a finger on his chin as he looked up to the sky. A moment passed as he turned to her.
"I'll teach you, besides I need a partner"
"A partner?" she repeated as she approached him.
He smirked at her mildly as he kicked one of the balls.
She barely caught it and as she did, she felt the air whoosh out of her lungs.
She flushed as she dropped the ball on the ground.
"What was that for?" she yelled.
He smiled charmingly at her. "A welcome to my new partner"
She pouted as she picked up the ball and threw it at his head.
He laughed as he dodged it. "I'm Kazuki Yaboshi"
"Sakura Kinomoto"
He motioned her to come closer to him with his hands. "Come on"
She smiled as she jogged towards him.
At the last minute, she slipped on a soccer ball, and fell into his arms.
She flushed red as she heard him laugh.
"Quite the clumsy one, aren't we?"
She pouted as she looked up.
Her heart skip a beat as swirls of dark amber met with hers.
They stayed like that for a moment, gazing into each other's eyes with Kazuki holding her up.
"You can stop staring at me now" he smiled.
Her eyes widened as she pushed him away from her causing him to lose his balance and fall down on his butt.
She looked at him with laughing eyes. "Err… Sorry about that…" she apologized as she offered to help him up with her outstretched hand.
He raised an eyebrow at her as he held her hand in his for support. Kazuki dusted off the dirt off his clothes as he stood up.
"That wasn't exactly the thank you I was expecting" he chuckled.
She flushed. 'He is much, much friendlier than that Syaoran Li guy' she reflected.
"Lesson one" he smiled as he threw the ball at her which she caught with her hands.
"Don't ever touch the ball or it'll explode!" he shouted.
Sakura let go of it immediately then sulked as she heard him burst into laughter.
"You really don't know anything about soccer?"
She shook her head slowly.
"Don't worry"
His voice broke her out of her reverie.
She looked at him slowly.
"I'll teach you everything you need to know" he winked.
"Arigato"
He dusted off the supposed dirt from his shirt and stood up. He slowly walked up the stairs, and as he arrived at the very top, he took a glance back at the couple before walking away.
"Who is he?"
'A boyfriend?'
"But she's still new here"
'Moves fast'
He chuckled a bit at his thoughts.
"Moves very fast" he mumbled as he made his way to the beach.
