Flashback from the previous chapter…"Soo…Do you think that Sakura's still alive?" asked Eriol.
"Hmm…knowing Tomoyo, probably not…" replied Syaoran.
At the Kinomoto Residence
"HHHHHHOOOOOOOEEEEEEEEE! I'M LATE!" Sakura scrambled out of bed and started looking frantically in her closet for something good to wear to school.
There was a muffled gasp from under the pile of clothes that Sakura was throwing around.
"Sorry Kero, I'll get you a pudding later on" Sakura muttered and continued to look through her clothes. In the end, she ended up picking a pink tank top and a white skirt that reached just above her knee.
Sakura basically fled down the stairs, greeted her father and brother as cheerful as she could, put on her roller blades, grabbed a piece of toast and left.
She roller bladed as quickly as she could to school, being careful not to crash into someone or something.
At school
Sakura rushed to her locker and emptied what she needed for her next few classes, and ran to her first classroom. She quietly opened the door, expecting that the whole class would be staring at her, but instead, she only saw Syaoran.
"Konnichiwa Syaoran!" Sakura said, smiling. "But where is everyone else?" she said looking confused.
Syaoran blushed and pretended to read his book and muttered, "It's only eight o'clock Sakura."
"HOE! I'M SOO GONNA KILL TOUYA!" said a really annoyed Sakura.
"Who's Touya?" asked an interested Syaoran.
"Oh him…he's just my stupid, annoying, older brother…" replied Sakura, slumping into her seat which was in front of Syaoran's.
"Soo…why do you come to school so early?" Sakura asked.
Syaoran glanced up from his book and quickly looked back down, preventing Sakura seeing the pink tinge on his cheeks.
"I not sure actually," he began. "I guess its just part of the routine, now that I'm used to it…"
"Oh, okay," replied Sakura. Just then the door burst open and in came Katrina, swaying her hips from side to side and flipping her long blonde hair.
"Hey Syaoran," she said seductively, acting as if Sakura wasn't there. Syaoran ignored her.
"Syaoran, honey, go out with me tonight?" she said, trying desperately to get his attention.
"It's Li to you," Syaoran said coldly, glaring at her. "Plus, who would want to go out with a slut like you?" Katrina was lucky that they weren't in public; otherwise she would've been too humiliated to even come to school.
"You'll regret that you ever rejected me Li," she said, her voice getting icy.
"Whatever," Syaoran replied without even looking at her.
"Humph!" and with that Katrina stalked out of the classroom.
For a while Sakura was silent until, "I can call you Syaoran, right?" she asked curiously.
"Umm…I guess…" Syaoran replied blushing madly.
"So, who do you let call you by your first name?"
"Friends and family," he replied.
"But Tomoyo's your friend…and she still calls you Li."
"That's because…" Just then the door burst open for a second time and Syaoran was saved and didn't have to say why Tomoyo called him Li. In came Tomoyo, Rika, Chiharu and Naoko.
"Hi Sakura, Li," they all greeted them. Sakura stole a glance at Syaoran, but quickly replied, "Hey." Syaoran just nodded.
"So Sakura. Finally got out of the habit of sleeping in?" teased Tomoyo.
"Nope! Touya set my alarm clock an hour early. I'm so gonna kill him after school. You guys gonna join me?" asked Sakura.
"Umm…"
"I don't think…"
"Err…"
"Better not…"
"So much for friends…" said Sakura sarcastically.
"Thanks. Aren't we just the greatest?"
Later
Ding DongSorry for this announcement just before the bell. If you are a girl and you want to try out for this year's cheerleading squad, please go to the gym at lunch. And also, if anyone wants to try out for this year's boy soccer team go to the field at lunch. Thank you.
"So Sakura, you gonna try out for cheerleading?" Tomoyo asked.
"Definitely," replied Sakura. "What about you?"
"Cheerleading's not really my thing, but Rika, Chiharu and Naoko probably try out. Right girls?"
"Yep," they all cried in unison.
At lunch, the girls all walked down to the gym, with Tomoyo holding her video camera.
"This is going to be so kawaii!" she cried for the thousandth time.
"We get the point Tomoyo," they all said. They arrived in the gym on time, but Katrina and her loyal friends were there as well.
"Can I please have your attention everyone," said a voice into a microphone. "I know you're all excited about the cheerleading try outs, but please try to remain as calm as possible. Can I please have everyone lining up in alphabetical order." There was a sudden rush, as everyone tried to get in a single line.
"Okay. Now I'm going to tell you a bit about the squad. I will judge each and every one of you here today, but pick only six girls for the squads and a few emergencies. I will then pick a captain and a co-captain depending on how you train during the practices. When I call you up, please show me some of your best moves and I will jot down how you do. Okay, can I please have the first person up." The line slowly got smaller and smaller, until there was only half the amount there was at the start.
"Kinomoto Sakura, you're up." Sakura walked nervously up onto the gym mats and did a series of cartwheels and flips, not making any mistakes at all.
"Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant Miss. Kinomoto." The line decreased a little again and now it was Katrina's turn. There was murmuring from the girls who had already done their audition.
"That girl, Katrina…"
"She was captain of the cheerleading squad last year…"
"Is she really that good…"
"I hope she isn't, otherwise I won't stand a chance…"
Katrina finished her routine with only one tiny slip up.
"Very good," said the judge. Soon, there were no more people to audition.
The judge spoke in a loud and clear voice, "I have decided on who will make it onto the cheerleading squad." The whole room was silent. "The following people please make your way up here. Katrina…" Katrina smirked and whispered, "I knew it!" "Rika…" Rika smiled. "Sakura…" #Hoe!# She thought. "Chiharu…Naoko…and finally Danielle. (Someone I made up. She's not really important in this story.) These six people will be representing our school this year, unless I decide to switch a few people around. Thank you to everyone who tried out."
Tomoyo immediately rushed towards them. "Congratulations!" she cried happily.
"I'm so happy I got onto the squad!" said Sakura. "I didn't think I would make it."
Soccer Try Outs
"Hurry up Eriol. Do you want to go or not?" asked a very impatient Syaoran.
"Of course I do!" replied Eriol.
"Did you know that soccer…" Yamazaki started.
"Shut up Yamazaki or I'll call Chiharu over to deal with you," muttered Eriol.
They ran as fast as they could down to the field and made it just in time to hear the sensei's announcement.
"Welcome to the boys' soccer try outs. To do this fairly, I'm going to divide you into teams and you will play 10-minute rounds against the other teams. Make sure you give everyone a fair shot at the ball. Let's start." In the end there was ten teams of six. The sensei told team one and team two to start playing, while he jotted down some things on his writing pad. When ten minutes was up, he blew his whistle and sent team three and four up and he kept doing this until all the teams had a go.
"Now that I have seen all the people here play, I have decided who the eleven people for this year's soccer team are. Please come up here when I call out your name. Syaoran Li…Eriol Hiiragazawa…Matt Richards…Rick Liu…Kevin Wong…Yamazaki Takashi…Tian You Wang…Taylor Saunders…Mickey Lee…Tai Chang…and Jake Avery. (All the names except for Syaoran, Eriol and Yamazaki, I made them up. I have no idea about Japanese names, because I'm not Japanese. I live in Australia, but I can speak mandarin.) The extra people on the team will be on this list, which I will stick outside my office. The first training session is next Wednesday. I'll see those people then."
Back in class
"So, did you guys make the soccer team?" asked Rika.
"Yeah…all three of us did. Did you girls make the cheerleading squad?" asked Yamazaki.
"Yep! All four of us." Replied Naoko.
"But Sakura was by far the best! Don't you agree girls?" asked Tomoyo.
"Yeah…definitely." They all agreed. Sakura blushed, but didn't say anything. Syaoran looked at her and caught her eye. He looked away, turning more than five shades of red.
# Ooh…looks like my cute little descendant has a little crush…# thought Eriol.
# KAWAII! They'll make such a kawaii couple # thought Tomoyo. Tomoyo caught Eriol's eye and they suddenly had plans.
When class was dismissed, while everyone rushed towards the door, Tomoyo and Eriol stayed behind, so that they could discuss certain plans and Plan A would take place in exactly a week's time…
