I was thinking that Sakura has trouble in maths, so she asks syaoran 4 help, so she gets lots of time with him!!!! Teehee!!! ^_^
The whole of today I've been so stressed! First of all, I had two major exam things, secondly in history, the teacher made me empty the bin into the huge dumpster thing in the car park. I so knew that she'd make me do it. Just because she's my homeroom teacher, doesn't mean I have to always do it! Grrr and then when I came back, I couldn't open the classroom door! Very embarrassing! And thirdly I had to type this whole chapter again! Because something screwed up in Word and I crossed it thinking I'd already saved it…BIG MISTAKE! Never do that without saving it first okay??? Otherwise you get real pissed off and hurt your hand punching the table ^_^ But enough about me, on with da story…again…
Azure Flame
Chapter 4 - Eriol torture time
Sakura was lying on the end of her bed, gazing at the ceiling. She'd managed to meet up with Hiroki again. He'd seemed happier, but Sakura was to busy thinking of other things, to feel happy for him. Just that afternoon, when she had kissed Eriol (Huh! I told ya I was gonna cut out all the mushy Eriol bits! ^_^) She had imagined that it was really Syaoran…
Sakura sat up startled and ran a shaking hand through her honey hair. "What am I going to do?" She asked herself. "I don't even know his name!" Sakura got up and walked over to her shelf. She grabbed her old year books and collapsed onto her bed. She found a photo of her year and naturally looked straight for Eriol. She smiled as she looked at him and before she could stop herself, she scanned the crowd for Syaoran. Eventually she found him.
"Li Syaoran," she muttered to herself. "That's a nice name, it sounds Chinese too." Her heart starting beating faster as she glanced at his photo again. "What's so good about him? He's a complete asshole!" She slammed the book shut and walked over to her window.
"But when I fell, he held me so gently…"
***
"Your project will be due in exactly a month. Unfortunately, due to your disgraceful behaviour last lesson, I will be choosing your groups. Any questions?" The students were silently exchanging annoyed glances to each other.
"Excellent. Okay, let's see who I shall pair you with…"
Sakura rolled her eyes and whispered to Yumei, "Gosh, Mr Duncan (Bwahahaha! Sorry, personal joke ^_^) has got something up his butt!"
"I reckon!" Yumei replied. (Cause that's what my friend Gen would say.)
The two of them continued talking, when at last Mr Duncan came over to them. "Yumei, you're with Jounouchi and Taylssa. Sakura you're with Syaoran and Eriol."
Oh God! Please say that it's not…
"Nice little group we have here," Syaoran muttered saracastically.
"What do we have to do Eriol?" Sakura asked, ignoring Syaoran's remark. "To boil the water, after we add the green dye."
"I'll get the dye," Syaoran said and walked away.
"I better set up the Bunsen burned then," Eriol told Sakura.
"Then I'll get the beaker." When everyone was back, Sakura got ready to turn the gas on.
"Not yet Sakura," Eriol warned. "Hey Syaoran, don't stand there, you might catch on fire," Eriol warned, smiling slightly. Eriol clenched his fists hard to stop from laughing as he told Sakura to add the sugar. "Okay, turn on the gas...NOW!"
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!
It exploded all over...SYAORAN! (betta ya thought it was Eriol!)
Sakura gasped, Eriol smiled guilty. "Whoops! I forgot sugar explodes!" Syaoran rushed over to the sink complaining, "Ow! Ow! Hot! Hot!" he hurriedly turned the water on the cool his head. When he was finished Sakura covered her mouth. "What?" Syaoran asked slowly. Sakura pointed to his hair. He slowly glanced at his reflection in the sink.
"MY HAIR IS GREEN!!!"
"Must have been the die," Eriol shrugged innocently. Syaoran glared at him and then got permission to go to the bathroom.
"Eriol! Why didn't you tell me that glucose blows up?!" Sakura asked helplessly, for once in her life feeling sorry for Syaoran.
"Hey! I didn't do anything!"
"Oh my gosh, you're RIGHT! I blew up Syaoran!" Sakura groaned, tears in her eyes. (only because she's afraid of what Syaoran's temper is gonna be!)
"He's going to KILL me!" Sakura cried out unhappily. "No he won't Sakura-chan," Eriol assured her, and she snuggled into his chest.
Yumei walked over to Sakura, laughing her head off. "Hey Sakura! Syaoran sure seems HOT today! That little hot head!" Sakura didn't have time to laugh at the joke, for she smelt something burning. "What's that smell?" Yumei asked, scrunching up her nose. The three of them looked to the right…
"My BOOK is on FIRE!" Eriol cried, running over to the desk. (hehe suck shit man!)
***
"Hey Sakura! Guess what?! I found out that guy's name!"
"Really? What is it?"
"Li Syaoran!"
"Hoe?!" Tomoyo nodded intently. "Demo, what's wrong? You've gone all pale."
Sakura laughed falsely. "Nothing. So what about this Li guy?"
"Oh yeah! Do you think I should ask him out? I mean what if he has a girlfriend?"
Sakura tried to keep smiling, but really it felt as if her body and gone numb. "Sure, I guess so…" She managed, trying to be supportive of Tomoyo's crush.
"You don't mind?" Tomoyo asked, uncertainly. Sakura raised a quivering eyebrow. "Why would I mind?"
Tomoyo shrugged, "I don't know I felt that I had to ask you that or something Sakura!" Tomoyo smiled brightly again. "So I hear something happened in your science class!"
Sakura grinned. "Oh! You heard about that!"

"We'll need someone sensible to act the part of the witch," the history teaching explained. Syaoran grinned, "I think Eriol should do it then!"
"Good idea. Mr Hiragizawa it is!" The teacher turned to look at Eriol. "That means you'll be tied to stake in address with pretend flames. Are you a good a squealer?"
Syaoran grinned again, "He is now!" Unfortunately everybody heard him. The teacher smiled, "Are you alright with that Mr Hiragizawa?"
Eriol sighed with a worried expression on his face, "I guess so…" he replied and glanced at Syaoran just in time to see him evilly mouth, "pay back time!"
/// Lunch ///
"You have to play the witch?" Sakura asked. Eriol nodded gloomily, "It's all LI'S fault!"
"Well, you DID turn his hair green!" Sakura reminded him.
"yeah, I guess it IS a shame he couldn't get it out!"
"I wonder what his parents will say…" Sakura pondered.
"Nothing but good ole compliments…that is after the screaming!" Eriol wickedly grinned. "After all, green IS his colour! Matches his eyes don't you think?"
"yeah, but you betta be careful, Syaoran might get back at you in more ways."
"Oh well! I'm ready for him! I'd try him something more witty then green hair!" Eriol started laughing and accidentally fell of the desk he was sitting on. (That's for bagging out Syaoran! Let your sore butt always remind you of my wrath! Bwahahaha)
"Are you alright Eriol?" Sakura asked, peering down at him.
"Of course, I've never felt better!" he murmured as he rubbed his butt.
/// The Next Day /// (The hallucination stage….. ^_^)
"How does this taste?" Jounouchi asked, shoving a spoon full of Chillie in his mouth!
"TOO HOOOOOT!" Eriol cried out and hurriedly started bouncing on his feet.
"Sorry man!" Jounouchi apologised and ran to get some water. "Here!" Jounouchi tripped and the water splashed all over Eriol!!!
"TOO COOOOOLD!" Eriol cried and Jounouchi started rubbing him with a towel.
"Do you MIND???" Eriol's irritated voice asked, slightly muffled under the towel.
"Do I add the mushrooms yet?" Jou asked.
"Uh-huh."
"Rightio, here I go!" (he…he… I based this Jounouchi on the real one…evn though he wouldn't say that ^_^)
"how does it taste now?"
"Awful! Where did you get those mushrooms?" Eriol asked, disgusted.
"Outside in my garden."
"I see. Did you grow them yourself?"
"Nup, they came after the rain last week!"
"Are you SERIOUS? Those ones are poisoness!"
"Really? I thought…" Jou didn't finish his sentence for he saw Eriol fall unconscious.
"Was it really that bad?" Jou pondered, grabbing a spoon and trying some for himself.
"Woah! Dat's shit ass man!" Jou said and then fell on top of Eriol, in a dead faint.
"What the hell happened here?!" The design and technology teacher aksed, running over to the boys.
"They fainted after they tried their cooking," a girl informed her, glancing at their rigid bodies. The teacher walked over to the saucepan and sniffed it.
"Gosh! Those stupid boys! This stuff's DEADLY!"
"Cool! Mind if I take some home? My sister sure could use some mushroom soup!" a kid eagerly asked. The teacher shook her head irritably. "Stop being such an idiot Titoki!" she said annoyed. "Betta get these guy's down to the nurse's office!"
***
Sakura walked out of the office, frowning. Eriol seemed to be in a very bad mood, and typically letting it all out on her.
"What's wrong honey? Run out of boys to fall on?"
She turned around and looked the guy straight in the eye. "What do you mean?" Sakura asked.
"Slut." The guy responded and walked past her. Another guy slapped her butt as he walked past. "HEY!!!!!" She cried out. A girl looked at Sakura and then ran away.
"Bad news Sakura!" Yumei told her.
"What now?" Sakura asked confused, still shocked at what the guy had said.
"There's a huge rumour going around."
"let me guess, it has something to do with ma being an easy slut?"
Yumei nodded. "how did you know?"
"Just a feeling!" and she told Yumei about what had happened.
"God! What dickheads!" Yumei said angrily.
"Tell me about it!"
"That sucks. Well I stop here! See ya Sakura!"
"Ja ne Yumei," she replied.
/// Few mins later ///
"Hey Kinomoto!" another guy said and winked at her. She desperately urged the tears to stay in her eyes.
"Wait Kinomoto!" Yet another boy called out. She turned around and glared at none other then Syaoran. "I suppose you're gonna tell me some smart remark about how you think I sleep around with any old guy too?!" She yelled at him, tears finally betraying her.
"N-No!" Syaoran argued, looking slightly hurt.
"E-Excuse me?" Sakura asked disbelievingly.
"I wanted to tell you that I don't believe it."
"Well that's great isn't it?!" Sakura replied sarcastically.
"I'm serious! That rumour is all bull!"
"How do you know that?" Sakura demanded, tears still rolling down her flushed cheeks. Syaoran didn't say anything.
"Exactly!" Sakura muttered and started walking down the oval again.
"I know you wouldn't so that!" Syaoran called after her.
"Why? You said the exact same thing that time at soccer!" She cried.
"I….didn't mean it like that," Syaoran said running up to her.
"Just leave me alone Li," she desperately said.
"If it helps, I think they're all assholes." He tried again, ignoring her first plea. Sakura didn't say anything else for a while. Eventually she said, "I'm sorry you're hair got turned green…"
"That's alright! I needed a change anyway!" he said brightly. Sakura giggled then stopped, remembered who she was with.
"It's alright you know. If it was someone else, I'd laugh too."
"Aren't you nice.
"You'd be surprised he answered. Sakura nodded dully.
"Oh come on and cheer up!" Syaoran demanded and playfully punched her arm. "You should hear all the stuff they say about me!"
"What? Like you're a complete moron?" she said accidentally grinning evilly.
"Hey! Watch it!" he joked then suddenly looked embarrassed. "Sorry if I was a jerk to you before."
"What are you apologising for?" she asked confused.
"Because I realised that you probably don't need shit from me , let alone everyone else's…anyway I better go now."
"Oh, okay, bye. Sakura said and watched him walk away.
"A-Arigato!" She called out.
"What for?" he asked half turning around.
"N-never mind…"
"Whatever." He replied and disappeared into the tree's.
