Thanks for all the reviews! BTW the institute they teach at is called Clow Corps.

Ice Queen

Chapter Four

Sakura's POV

What the f?!?!?! Why do I have to teach with HIM! I already have to stand him all day... and now I can never get away from him! Gah!

She gave a loud 'hmph' and went to do her warm up exercises before her little ninja wannabe students arrived.

Sakura found herself nearly destroying all the targets in the building with all the kunai she had embedded into them.

"Oops..." Sakura sweatdropped at her own idiocy. She'd catch it from Clow- sama (owner of institute) later.

She sighed and grabbed a towel while running towards her classroom. The students should all be there and meditating while waiting for her to arrive.

"Hello minna," her cold voice seemed a little more gentle with the students.

Immediately all the children (9-12 yrs old) stood up and bowed. She let out her first smile for the day, "Let's begin with kunai er... um... disguises. Pick a partner... don't let me know who. It has to be of the opposite gender. Then hurry into the outfits area and come back out. Stand in a line in front of me when you're done. I don't want to be able to who you are. You must dress and act like your partner."

She watched and laughed a little when the students came in a line before her.

This is always amusing.

Syaoran's POV

Since I was new... I guess Clow-sama let me watch Kinomoto for a while... she's to be my example in teaching. 'One of our best' Clow had told me.

My jaw nearly hit the floor when I saw her smiling at her bowing students... she looked kind of well... nice.

My jaw did hit the floor when she laughed at her student's lame excuses for disguises. She looked like an angel.

I had been watching at the door when I saw her freeze. Her head snapped around in my direction, "Li"

Her voice was frightening, "Go teach your own class. What the hel-heck are you doing here?"

Oh so she was watching her mouth for her students... she must like them a lot.

"Clow-sama told me to watch you to get this 'feel for teaching.'" I could see her turn red with anger. It was really amusing to watch actually.

"Kids... go change back into your clothes... I need to TALK with LI-SAN about STUFF," Sakura shooed her pupils away then stormed up to me. She flipped me off and hissed, "Just my luck isn't it?"

She raised a hand to slap me but I grabbed it and twisted it around. She kicked my legs out from under me and somehow we ended up on the floor... with me on top of her.

I had the pleasure of seeing her face turn absolutely pink. Pink... not the color you would expect of the Ice Queen but oh well...

"If you wanted to be alone you could have just said so," a girl with black pigtails... Chinese style was smirking at us.

I jumped off of her in less than a second. I saw the class laughing and a very pink Kinomoto stand up.

She had the most menacing look on her face ever, "Meiling..." Sakura growled and began storming up to her... well she would have if I hadn't felt sorry for the surely dead girl and grabbed Kinomoto around the waist to save her...

Oh crap. Bad move.

The class was laughing even louder and Kinomoto had me in a headlock and then sent me flying out the door.

Ouch. That really hurt.

I got up and stumbled. But was supported by a small person. "Hi! I'm Sanosuke... we can't have our teacher's boyfriend getting hurt now can we?"

I looked at his foxy grin and couldn't help grinning back.

"Class," a super cold voice whipped through the air. "Leave the ugly man alone. We're going to practice concealment techniques outside."

I obviously have offended her in one way or another.

Syaoran walked up to her to apologize, but Sakura's head just whipped around, she refused to meet his gaze.

Is she... is she avoiding me? Why can't she look at my face?

Syaoran didn't know why, but he was beginning to worry about her.

Sakura's POV

That's the first time anyone has ever been so... close to me. Ugh. I hate this! I can't even look him in the eye anymore.

What is the feeling? It's like I'm detached from my body... for some reason I feel cold and... alone.

Why do I feel like this? I got over this feeling long ago when my parents died... so why does it come back? Why now?

Why in front of... him?

To be continued...

Hi! Keep reviewing or else! Jk Jk. So..... what'd you think?
