Shattered Dreams

Author's note: Yeesh, it's been awhile, I know, but hey, it took me quite some time to think of a new idea for a fanfic. I have thoroughly plot out the main ideas, story, and characters for this new story. Okay, "The Melaniemelmelgirl Show" was a crappy idea, and I regret trying it. Now, this story will be ABOUT 10 chapters, give or take a few. They will be LONGER than in my other fanfic, "What's Different on the Other Side", but not as many. And I am very busy in school and such, so it'll take awhile for the chappies to appear. Sorry in advance. Now, here is the synopsis:
The CCS cast is all in 8th grade. Syaoran just came back from Hong Kong three months ago, in October. It is now January, and Sakura and Li have been dating ever since his return. Most of the cast is 14, except for Rika and Chiharu. They are still 13. The Tomoeda Middle School is presenting a play called "Shattered Dreams", and everyone is trying out, hoping to get a role. It will also test the love and patience of Sakura and Syaoran, with definite E and T, and possible C and Y. (Chiharu and Yamakazi). Now, the story begins......
oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
It was a cold, bitter morning in January.
Ah, the second day of the year.
Happy, yet sad.
It meant that Christmas break was over.
And the new term had started.
BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP Sakura's alarm clock....beeped.
"Bleh.....did morning die......", she mumbled.
"MONSTER, TIME TO GET UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Toya's loud voice carried through the room.
"Feh....stupid Toya."
She opened one eye, and glanced at the clock.
"HOE!!!!!!!!!!!! I'M LATE!!!!!!!!!!!!" she screamed.
Indeed she was.
Syaoran was to come for her in 10 minutes, and they then would go to McDonalds for breakfast.
But poor Sakura was not ready.
She got up, running around her room, tripping multiple times over the messy floor, trying to get ready in time.
Quick like a bunny, she threw on her uniform, raked a brush through her wispy short brown hair, and put on some deodorant and such.
She ran to the bathroom, brushed her teeth and did her business.
Running back to her room for her book bag and wallet, she then rushed down the flight of stairs.
"Monster, you're going to be late for the brat!!!" her stupid older brother said.
"I AM NOT A MONSTER, AND HE IS NOT A BRAT!!!!" she said, stomping on his foot.
Toya responded by kneeling over in pain.
Feh.
Served him right!!!
Yelling a quick goodbye to her father, she rushed outside to see Li walking towards her.
"SYAORAN!!!" she squealed, running to him and jumping in his arms.
"OOOF!!" was his reply.
"Cant.....breath...." he said.
"Eeeep sorries!!!" she replied, blushing.
"That's okay," he said, leaning over and kissing her on the forehead.
Sakura blushed slightly as he did this.
"Well, let's go, we don't want to be late meeting Eriol and Tomoyo!!"
"You're right, let's go", he said.
They walked to McDonalds hand in hand. (Aww!!! Kawaii!!!!)
The ground was covered with a light coat of fresh winter snow.
The air smelled nice, too.
Crisp and fresh.
Ah, bliss.
A few minutes later, they arrived at Tomoeda's local McDonalds.
Inside sat Tomoyo and Eriol, sitting in a booth gazing lovingly at one another.
"Tomoyo!!!" cheered Sakura, breaking the two lover's gaze.
"Oh, hey Saku!!!" Tomoyo said.
"Hey, Sakura, what do you want?" Syaoran called out from the line.
"Some yummy hotcakes, please, with extra syrup, and milk!!"
"Okay!" he replied.
Sakura plopped down next to Tomoyo.
"So what's up?" she asked Tomoyo.
"Well, Eriol and I were discussing the new school play, Shattered Dreams."
"Shattered Dreams?"
"Yes, it's a romantic drama, and the tryouts are today after school. I'm signing up to do costumes, and for the lead singing role."
"Oooh, Tomoyo, you'd be great at singing, and it would be a great opportunity to promote your artistic sewing talents!!" Sakura cried, happily.
"That's what I told her", Eriol said, smiling happily at his purple-haired beauty.
"Aww, thanks Eriol-poo".
"Any time, smoky-wookums". (Yes they really act like that. Lol!!)
"Sorry to break up the love-fest, but I have Sakura's food", Syaoran said, popping up from nowhere.
"Yay!! Food!!!" Sakura exclaimed happily.
Syaoran handed her the hotcakes, syrup, and milk that she had wanted.
"Thanks!!" She said, hugging Syaoran.
"No problem, Sak!!"
For the next minute or two, everyone concentrated on eating, Sakura with her hotcakes, Syaoran with his Egg Mc Muffin, Eriol with his hash browns, and Tomoyo with her Mc Griddle.
Yum.
"So Sakura, do you think you'll try out for it?" Tomoyo asked, after swallowing.
"I dunno, what are the roles?"
"There's the lead girl, Sayiina, who is suffering from losing her family, the lead guy, Syorina, who helps Sayiina cope with her problems, the lead singer, Tokina, who is the best friend of Sayiina, the sorcerer who cursed poor Sayiina named Eriiji, and the ghost girl Chikuna that haunts Sayiina's dreams."
(Okay shut up, I TRIED to make them "original". But all I did was make them horrifically obvious. Sigh, the life of a struggling author...)
"Maybe I'll try out for Sayiina if I try out at all?"
"You should, Sakura!!! You did really good in that play in grade 6!!" Tomoyo pointed.
"IN GRADE SIX."
"Well, yah, but you ARE overly dramatic, which is what they are looking for!!!"
"AM NOT!!!"
"ARE TOO!!!"
"ARE NOT!!!"
"ARE TOO!!!"
"ARE..."
Eriol, cutting her off, a said, "Ya know, if you don't cut it out, we're going to be late for classes!!!"
Sakura glanced at the wall clock.
"HOE!!! I'M LATE!!!"
The four of them quickly gathered up their belongings, threw away their trash, and rushed to Tomoeda Middle School.
What a way to start a Monday....
oooooooooooooooooooooo
