I Love You

Chapter 2

Tommorow had came and everybody was going to school in the chilly morning. When Sakura walked into class, she saw Fuji sitting at his desk already. Sakura then remembered about the time when Kazumi was mentioning that Fuji has a crush on her. She quickly blushed and sat down. I can't love him...he can't love me, Sakura thought. Fuji saw Sakura walking in, so he waved and smiled. Sakura saw him. She couldn't help it, but she turned her away from Fuji. Fuji saw her turn her head and wondered what was wrong.

Kazumi came running in through the door yelling,"Sakura! Sakura! Look! LOOK!" Sakura turned her head to face Kazumi and saw her holding papers in her hand. "What is that?"asked Sakura. "HEHE! It's some flyers for the dance coming up! Want to go?" Kazumi asked. Sakura nodded and said,"Sure! When is it?" Kazumi smiled a scary smile and said,"This Sunday!" Sakura looked at Kazumi in the eyes surprised.

"W-why is it on Sunday? I can't go! I was suppose to meet Fuji at the park, so we can go and play a tennis match together!" Kazumi made a puppy-dog face and said,"Can you ask him if he can come with you? Please! I really want to go: Sakura closed her eyes and thought for awhile. Well I do want to go to the dance, but I can't just go up to Fuji and and say that our meeting at the park is cancelled. Hmm...maybe I should just go and do what Kazumi said. I guess I could tell him if he can come with me. But what if he thinks...NO! Ok we just go as friends then.

Sakura opened her eyes and nodded. "Ok then I guess I can ask him if he can come with us...and maybe he can bring a friend too! So the won't be alone with 2 girls!" "YAY! Ok today after school let's go to the mall to get some outfits for the dance!"agreed Kazumi. Sakura smiled and nodded her head. The teacher came in and started to take roll. After many classes it was lunchtime. Sakura went into the cafetaria and saw Fuji eatting with Eiji and the other Seigaku regulars. Sakura walked up a few feet and stopped. Her heart was pounding. W-what's wrong with me? How come my heart is beating so fast? Oh well, I must ignore this feeling...Sakura then walked up to Fuji and said quietly,"Umm...Fuji? Well...instead of going to the park...on...uhh...S-Sunday, can we go to the dance? W-well because my friend wants to go...and I can't leave her behind...and I-I can't cancel our meeting at the park so umm...can you come with me and Kazumi? Y-you can bring a friend if you want." Sakura then looked down on the ground.

She was blushing like crazy. She tried to hide her face by looking down. Fuji looked at her on confusion. Why is she acting so weird? Why was she stumbling while she was talking to me? Fuji then replied,"Sure. I guess I can bring a friend along." Sakura then looked up and nodded. She then ran off looking for Kazumi.

The day went by quickly. Sakura and Kazumi went to the mall to buy some outfits for the dance on Sunday. "Hey, Sakura, who is the friend that Syusuke will bring? Cuz I am gunna dance with him rite?"Kazumi asked while they were looking at dresses. "I don't know. Fuji never told me,"Sakura sighed. What happened to me? Why did i stutter when I ask Fuji? Sakura thought. "Ummmm... hey Sakura... who was that kid with the red hair? He looks kawaii!" Kazumi squealed. Sakura stared at Kazumi.

"So?"Kazumi pleaded. Sakura answered,"I think it's Kikumaru Eiji...he's one of the regulars on the tennis team." Kazumi dozed off into space...drooling, and sighing every now and then. Sakura looked at her and pretended that she didn't know her because people in the store were looking at them. Sakura slowly tip-toed away and she found a pink tank-top that had a read heart one it with glitter. She decided to try that one on.

When she came out of the fitting room to look at herself in the mirror, Kazumi figured out that Sakura disappeared and found her at the fitting room. When Kazumi ran next to Sakura, she gasped. Sakura turned around and looked at Kazumi. "Does it look weird on me?"asked Sakura. "NO! OF COURSE NOT! IT LOOKS GREAT ON YOU! YOU SHOULD GET THAT ONE!"replied Kazumi. Sakura went into the fitting room to change into her normal shirt and went to the cashier to pay. After that they went to look for clothes for Kazumi.

They found a green shirt with cutted sleeves. Kazumi decided to try it on and it fitted her perfectly. "That looks so great on you Kazumi!"yelled Sakura smiling. Kazumi nodded her head and said,"Yea I know!" They both laughed and went to the cashier to pay for Kazumi's shirt. They bought some jewlery and accessories. After buying a pink skirt for Sakura and some flare jeans for Kazumi, they both went home.

When Sakura came home, Sakuno came out of the kitchen and asked,"Where were you?" Sakura then replied,"I was at the mall with my friend to buy some clothes for the dance on Sunday." Sakuno looked at her."There was a dance? Can I come?" "Sure!"replied Sakura smiling. They both chuckled and Sakura went upstairs, to her room, to put her stuff away. After putting her new clothes away and her accessories for the dance, Sakura went to eat dinner. Then she showered and then went to sleep.

The next day came by as fast as the previous. Before anybody knew it, it was already Saturday. Sakura's alarm clock rang. She slowly opened her eyes to see Sakuno. "Umm...grandma and I are going to the market, so you are going to stay home alone for a little bit, ok?" "Mmmmphhhhhhhhllllllllll,"replied Sakura. A raindrop appeared on Sakuno's head and then she dashed out of Sakura's room and headed into the car with her grandma.

Two hours went by and Sakura slowly woke up. She stood up and went to the bathroom to wash her face and brush her teeth. She went downstairs, wondering where was her sister and her grandma. She saw a note on the table which said Dear Sakura, Sakuno and I went to the grocery store to buy some items for the party that we are having tonight for the Seigaku regulars. I didn't have time to make you breakfast, so I left some money on the table for you to buy food to eat. See you later Sakura. Love, Grandma.

Sakura placed the note down back on the table and grab the money that her grandma left behind. She ran upstairs to change and then went out of her house. Sakura wasn't familar with city, so she had a hard time looking for a restaurant to eat in. As Sakura was walking she accidentally bump into someone."AHH!"screamed Sakura as she fell down. "Oh my goodness, I'm so sorry are you o-" Sakura looked up while rubbing her back.

Beautiful blue eyes were staring into hers. Sakura quickly blushed and said,"F-Fuji?" Fuji took her hand and brought her back to her feet. "Yea it's me. Are you ok Sakura? I'm really sorry. My cellphone was ringing and i was busy talking on my phone that I wasn't paying attention."replied Fuji. Sakura quickly got her balance and let go of Fuji's hands. "I-it's ok Fuji-kun. Don't worry about it. U-umm...do you know any good restaurant around here?"asked Sakura as she was reaching into her pocket to get her money out.

"Wha? Where is it?"asked Sakura. Fuji opened his eyes. "Where's what?"asked Fuji. Sakura looked at Fuji and said,"My money grandma gave to me to go get something to eat! Now...I can't buy anything to eat...well it's ok. I guess I can try to cook something at home..." Sakura waved good-bye and turned around and walked back. Sakura felt a hand stop her. She turned around, seeing Fuji holding onto her arm. "U-umm...I can take you to this restarurant that I was going to. Want to join me? I can pay for you. Don't worry the money is on me."blushed Fuji. Sakura's heart started to pound. Is he asking me out on a date? No...I can't I... Sakura blushed madly and whispered,"U-umm...sure..."

Fuji smiled at Sakura and took her hand. "Follow me Sakura." Sakura smiled and nodded. She didn't know why, but she was really happy. She looked at her hand, and the hand of another boy touching each other. No...I can't...I can't...thought Sakura.
