Chapter Six
Syaoran's POV
Syaoran groaned as he plopped down in bed.
Ugh!
His dad had given him the beating of his life for being late home from school. When Syaoran had explained about work, his dad had beat him more, demanding why Syaoran hadn't told him about it sooner.
On top of that, he couldn't sleep. He kept seeing Sakura's tear-stained face in his mind.
Dang it! Kinomoto! What happened to you?
Sakura's POV
Sakura bit her lip until it bled. She lay in bed trying her best to hold her tears in.
What happened to all the walls I built around my heart? Why have they so easily broken down?
... is it Li? Could he be the fist person I've had contact with in such a long time? Tomoyo and Eriol and grown distant since the car accident... now she's pregnant so I can't see her at all...
Why has that boy broken me so easily? I trusted a boy before! He shattered my heart! Now I have walls built up around me so I should be okay... or that's what I thought.
How did he break those walls?
Sakura fell asleep distraught and confused. All her thoughts revolved around one person.
Syaoran Li.
Syaoran's POV
I walked into school probably with bags under my eyes. The beating last night hadn't been so bad so I could stomach it, but the lack of sleep was killing me.
I have to find out what happened to Kinomoto. Fast. I can't afford to lose more sleep.
I saw Yamazaki, Chiharu, Naoko, and Rika look at me a little worried but I smiled back at them and their concerned expressions disappeared.
We hung out at recess and ate together at lunch, because they insisted. I wanted to look for Kinomoto, but she had called in sick.
During physical ed, we had played soccer and I soon proved my worth. My team won that day. 10-0.
By the time I left school, I had a fan club made up of soccer fans, a flan club just for being me, and was captain of the school soccer team.
Why are those girls so persistent?
Syaoran ran around the corner towards the martial arts institute as fast as he could. The crazy girls were trying to kill him!
Ok maybe they all just want to ask me out but... come on!
Syaoran felt a hand grab him and pull him into the shadows of an alley and sighed in relief as he saw the stampede pass him by.
He turned, "Thanks yo- Kinomoto."
He saw two emotionless eyes stare up at him. "Your welcome," was her only comment to him as she got up and walk out of the shadows. He watched her silently as she walked into the institute then smacked himself on the head.
Why did she help me?
Syaoran caught up with her and tried talking with her, "Um... I don't have to watch you teach today... I've got a class of my own now..."
"That's nice." Her voice had a sharp edge to it.
"Look... about yesterday... I'm sorry for prying but-"
He was cut off, "Look! Don't pry into my life ok? But here's a piece of advice. Don't trust people. I used to be like you. You're going to get hurt being all soft. Get over it! People are just going to hurt you. They are NO GOOD!"
Sakura's POV
Why the heck is he asking about me anyway? Che. He better take my advice or he's going to get hurt... just like I said. People can't be trusted...
Sakura's bangs covered her face in shadow as she stormed away from him.
She was strict with her class that day and received worried looks from Meiling.
Che! A kid is worried about me! I've got to get over emotions. They're just a weakness.
But... why am I so irritated? Ever since I saw his 'fan club,' I've been pissed.
I couldn't be jealous... could I?
Ack! There I go with emotions again.
She walked out of the institute in deep thought, only to bump into something hard. A hand reached down to help her up from her fallen spot and she took it.
"Sorry," she grumbled then looked up at the person.
"Li?!?!?!" That's just my luck.
"Ne... Kinomoto... you can just call me Syaoran... actually I'd like it if you did," the boy was sincerely trying to get closer to her.
She didn't want to be the person to hurt him. She nodded stiffly and brushed past him then stopped.
I'm going to hate myself for this.
"Call me Sakura then... Syaoran."
Sakura again walked off.
Yup. I hate myself for saying that. I'm not supposed to be soft and nice but... I couldn't hurt him like that. I've been hurt before... it's not a nice experience... oh darn it!
Sakura sighed and walked home. In her mind swirled Syaoran's surprised and happy face... the face that was the response to her act of kindness...
Ugh. Why me?
To be continued...
Yay! Syaoran has begun melting Sakura's icy walls! So... if you want to see this continue... review!
