Mischievous Love

~starjade~

In Which Sakura and Syaoran

Meet

Syaoran had shoved his hands in his pocket and was walking along the sidewalk , his face angry and determined. He hated this! He wanted to scream , yell , bang a wall , do that stink bomb prank again....

Anything to show up his mother!

Grr....whenever the elders punished him , they would just add some more training , or do some task , like fight this guy or do this test...

Never make friends with someone!

Syaoran shuddered at the word. Syaoran never had many friends , except for Eriol. It disgusted him through and through...

" Hey , Syaoran ,wait up!" a voice behind him cried.

Syaoran stopped and turned around waiting for Eriol to catch up to him. Eriol finally made it to his side , breathing hard. He quickly fixed his glasses and looked over at Syaoran.

" Man , your looking angry today. More than usual."

Syaoran rolled his eyes. " Don't tell me you haven't heard my 'punishment' yet!"

Eriol put a hand under his chin and nodded. " Well , I have heard about it....but I wanted you to say it!"

Syaoran growled and Eriol laughed.

"What? You can't deny how funny that sounds." Eriol put a hand on his chest and dramatically posed like he was on a stage performing.

" How horrible! I am forced like Cinderella to be nice to someone! How dreadful! How repulsive! The inhumanity! Friends! I shudder at the word! The sadism! The-"

" Cut it Hiirigizawa!" Syaoran growled , and Eriol was driven to fits of laughter.

Syaoran couldn't help the hint of a smile that grew on his lips. To a normal person , it wouldn't sound like a punishment. But in case you haven't noticed...

Well maybe you haven't. Let me just state it again.

Syaoran Li isn't normal.

That clear enough for ya?

As they walked to school , Eriol calmed down enough to say , " Did you remember the itch powder?"

Syaoran nodded. " What is it for?"

Eriol smiled , mischievously. " Oh , a little present in the underwear of our favourite little teacher."

Syaoran stared at him , curiously.

" And how will you manage that?"

Eriol snapped his fingers. " Magic."

Syaoran rolled his eyes. " Using magic isn't very fun , Eriol."

Eriol shrugged. " That's why there will also be red paint on his chair."

Syaoran grinned. " Good Job!"

~~~~~~******~~~~~

Innocently , the two students walked into class , standing beside their chairs , like two goody two shoes. The class looked at them suspiciously , as everyone of them kneeled and peered at their cheers , inspecting them inch by inch.

The teacher cleared his throat , glaring at Syaoran and Eriol from the corner of his beady eyes.

" Alright class , sit down."

The class sat down , as the teacher did.

CRUNCH.

" Huh?" the teacher whispered , and got up quickly. Red paint was splattered on his chair. Eriol snapped his fingers , and he began to scratch his behind.

" What is going on???" he roared , and the class backed away from the crazy teacher who was scratching his butt.

The teacher roamed the room with his eyes and landed on two snickering perpetrators.

" SYAORAN LI , ERIOL HIIRIGIZAWA!" The teacher screamed , his face red. The whole class cracked up as he itched his butt like crazy , red paint coming off on his fingers. He screamed with terror as he raced around the room , rubbing his butt on the wall , only succeeding to paint the wall red.

He gave a horror-struck look at the laughing class , before running out the door , his toupee flying off his head and onto the ground.

Eriol picked it up , and quickly grabbed a super glue bottle that he had been hiding in his pocket ,and squirting it onto the underside.

" You forgot your toupee !" he yelled , and the teacher put his hands on his head and yelled , quickly grabbing his toupee and squishing it onto his head. Of course , forgetting that the toupee was being handed to him none other than The Eriol Hiirigizawa.

Transparent white glue oozed from the edges and the teacher halted , a suspicious expression growing on his face.

" What is this..." he whispered , and tried to take it off. Too bad it was stuck to his head.....

" AHHHHHHHHHH!" he screamed once more , and after scratching his butt , and giving a horrified glance to the two culprits , he ran out the door down to the office.

The whole class stared at the two , wondering how they could pull of such a prank.

" That was funny!" Eriol cried , wiping a tear off his face.

Syaoran grinned. " A master piece, if I must say so myself!"

The whole class stared at each other and erupted into loud applause for the two pranksters , who bowed , proudly.

Until the principal growled on the intercom , " Syaoran Li and Eriol Hiirigizawa , report to the office , IMMEDIATELY!"

~~~~~*****~~~~~

Sakura looked around at her new room , proudly taking in the pink walls , the pink bed , the pink dresser , the pink pillows...

And we all are wondering what her favourite colour is.

She collapsed against her bed , and looked at the brochure that laid on the mattress. It was the brochure to the school she was going to tomorrow. She had already ordered the uniform that was required of all students , and was already told her homeroom class.

Getting up , she peered out her windows , taking in the tall buildings and parks that surrounded her house. It was quite an interesting city....now only if she could get her father to let her explore it.

Her gaze turned to her side and took in the towering mansion. Her jaw dropped as she gazed at it. The mansion made their house look like a bird's egg.

Sakura shook her head. Maybe it was haunted. With ghosts. With chopped off heads. And...

Sakura stifled a scream , as she opened the door. The silence of the house scared her. She knew Tomoyo was here somewhere...

But where?

Carefully , step by step , she went down the stairs. Each step echoed in the house , pounding against her ears. When her foot rested on the floor , she stared at the door.

Only a few more steps , Sakura. There isn't any ghost waiting behind that door with a long hook , ready to tear apart your flesh...

She held a fist to her mouth as she took one step and then another and then another...

Her hand rested on the knob and she took a deep breath but suddenly a shadow from outside fell upon her.

Her head jerked up as a dark figure came closer to her door , closer , closer , closer...

The doorbell rang , echoing through the house , pounding the walls.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

The long scream erupted from her mouth as she fell away from the door and pulling on the knob , causing the door to swing open , revealing a confused Syaoran.

Sakura continued to scream and she could hear footsteps from upstairs , signalling Tomoyo was coming.

She looked up and saw a chestnut haired boy staring at her. His eyes were cold and serious and she smiled a bit hesitantly. Embarrassment flooded through her veins as she remembered her scream that probably shook up the whole neighbourhood.

" uh...hello , how can I help you?" she asked , her voice terribly squeaky ,as she pulled herself up. Tomoyo came pounding down the stairs and ran next to her.

" Who is it?" she asked , staring at Syaoran as well.

Syaoran was staring at both of them confusedly. Who were this banshees?

" Hello , my name is Li Syaoran , I'm your neighbour and proper etiquette calls for me to introduce you to Hong Kong for I am the next leader of the Li Clan and am expected to do so."

This speech was made formally and Sakura blinked about five times before replying , quite intelligently , " Huh?"

Tomoyo elbowed her painfully. " I'm Daidouji Tomoyo."

Sakura smiled. " And I am Kinomoto , Sakura."

Syaoran nodded , his eyes scrutinizing the Kinomoto girl. She had auburn hair , emerald eyes , and a light figure. She seemed a bit empty headed , but the shocking colour of her eyes drew you away from that note.

" I hope you two will cordially accept my invitation..." he said , his voice bored and drawling.

Sakura stared at him. " Wait a minute....you live in that mansion beside our house , right?"

Syaoran had a strong urge to roll his eyes. " Yes."

Sakura clapped her hands and giggled. " Ohhhh....and I thought that mansion was haunted! It seems so cold and mysterious in there!"

Just like him , she thought as she looked him over. Chestnut hair , inquisitive , intelligent amber eyes and a cold facade that made you think over any ideas of being friends with him. He was strong and superior and gave them all a , I-am-so-much-better-than-you look.

" Okay , I geuss we'll come with you. When do you want us to be at your mansion , thingy?"

Syaoran glared at her. " Four o'clock tomorrow. After school."

Sakura's eyes brightened. " Hey do you go to..."

Syaoran answered , sharply. " Yes , I do. Bye."

With that , he whirled around and walked off. Sakura stared after him and then looked at Tomoyo. " Wait a minute.... I never even told him the name of the school!"

Tomoyo shrugged , peering after the boy. " He seems really cold and out of it."

Sakura shrugged. " Who cares? We have a tour guide!"

Tomoyo giggled as Sakura began hopping around the house , singing , " We have a tour guide , yippe , yippee , do da , we have a tour guide , yippee , yippee , do da!"

Tomoyo suddenly thought of something. " Hey , Sakura , come try on this totally kawaii outfit I made for you!"

Sakura winced. " Are you sure?"

Tomoyo grinned. " Absolutely! COME!"

With that , she pulled on Sakura's arm and dragged her along with her.
