Chapter 1:
Syaoran's insane suspicion
Normal POV
It was a nice and peaceful Monday morning in Japan. A girl of 15 sat up. Her shoulder long, auburn hair was messy. Her emerald green eyes were now squinting at her alarm clock, 7:15 am.
"Oh it's still early, might as well get up." She turned to her drawer to see a peacefully sleeping Kero. She stood up, made her bed and headed for the bathroom. She took a nice warm shower. She came out covered with a baby blue bathrobe. She had another towel in her hand which she used to dry her hair.
"Oh Sakura! You're up early!" Kero beamed at Sakura.
"Hoe!" startled, she turned to see Kero playing a video game. "I thought you were still asleep?"
"I was but I need to finish level 8 by today! I can't wait to tell Suppi!" he had an evil grin on his face for a while then went back to playing his video games.
"Sakura! Breakfast is ready!" Touya called from the kitchen.
"See you later Kero-chan." Sakura waved at Kero, who was busy playing his video games.
Sakura hopped her way down the stairs. She was humming a song softly. 'Mmmmmm….onii-chan really does make good pancakes.' Taking in the aroma of her brother's home made pancakes.
She entered the kitchen and sat at one of the chairs. Touya was still cooking when she sat at the table. He didn't seem to notice that Sakura was already seated. What Touya didn't really know was that Sakura was staring admirably at him. Why wouldn't she? Well he is mean and overprotective, but aren't brothers like that? Even if he is being mean at me deep inside I know how much he loves me so. He is currently working as a manager at a recording company, still single…hehehe….a lot of women like him but he doesn't pay attention to them, poor girls. I was almost awaken from my dreamy state when he turned to me.
Sakura's POV
"Ohayou gozaimasou Kaijuu!" laying a plate of pancakes in front of me.
"O-HA-YOU O-NII-CHAN! I am not a kaijuu!" while stomping his foot. He yelped in pain. The look on his face was priceless. 'That's what you get for calling me a kaijuu onii-chan!' a small smirk forming on my face and thought to myself.
Knock Knock
"Can you get that for me squirt?" Touya tilted his head towards the door prompting me to open it.
"Sure!" I headed towards the door and opened it. There standing in front of me was a man my age. He has messy chestnut hair, his bangs drooping over some of those amber eyes. He was well built and his face, it was just perfect. Li Syaoran, heir to the wealthiest and most powerful family in China. He was my best friend, next to Tommoyo that is. I ran to him and gave him a hug. Finally realizing what I was doing, I broke the hug. He didn't seem to mind though.
"Syaoran! What are you doing here?" he came into the house as if it were his own.
"Coming to see my best friend of course!" he said smiling at me. He went to the kitchen,
"Bro!" Giving Touya some sort of handshake, sits at the table and helped himself to some of Touya's pancakes.
"So how's the practice? Still kicking butt at school? Sakura always talks about your soccer games." Touya questioned Syaoran since he once became his soccer coach. Ever since then they had been quite good friends.
"Good! Everything's excellent!" he shoved some of the pancake in his mouth.
"How about you kaijuu? Want more pancakes?" Touya asked Sakura.
"Kaijuu?" Giving Touya a confused look; his eyes traveled from Touya to me, "Kaijuu? You?" They both burst out laughing leaving me furiously blushing.
I was so embarrassed, first Touya embarrasses me, now Syaoran might call me that name for the rest of my life. I had enough! I got up, took my bag, strapped my skates on and took off.
I heard Syaoran call after me but didn't bother to listen to him.
"Oh No! I'm in big trouble! Well go to go. See you later Touya." Syaoran took his bag and ran after Sakura.
He finally caught up to me.
"Sakura! Matte!" Syaoran grabbed my wrist motioning for her to stop.
I shoved his hand away and continued to speed up.
"Sakura! Come on! Gomen nasai."
"Leave me alone Syaoran!"
"No"
"You heard me! Get lost!"
"No. Not until you forgive me."
"I won't! Now, go away!"
"Can I try convincing you?"
"Try…"
I was cut off. It happened too fast. The next thing I know I was being carried by Syaoran to school; bridal style.
I was shocked, "What do you think you're doing?"
"Convincing you."
A blush crept up my cheeks. He was smiling at me. 'Doesn't he think I'm heavy? Doesn't he mind being in this position? What is he so happy about?' my mind raced with questions. I wasn't able to talk the entire time I was in his arms. We finally came to a halt; he smiled and looked down at me.
We were now at the front gate of our school. I could feel all eyes staring daggers at us. Girls were all looking at the smiling Syaoran as if he were doing something terribly long. I couldn't blame them. Syaoran is the most popular guy in school and here he was a girl in his hands and smiling as if it were the most wonderful thing that ever happened in his life. What can I do? Everyone knows that Syaoran and I have been best friends for a very long time now but people are still convinced that we are going out. We've been denying the issue ever since.
"So, did I convince you?" smiling more.
"Okay I give up!" I put both my hands up in defeat. I threw him a fake punch. He put me down.
"Now everyone thinks we're going out or something!" I got up and dusted my uniform clean. It was a while before his reply came.
He smiled and looked away, "I don't mind." His words made my cheeks go hot pink.
"Well I'm going to see Tomoyo-chan. See you later Syao-kun." I waved at him and took off. "See you later Sakura-chan!" he waved good bye and walked in the opposite direction. 'I can't believe that Syaoran actually carried me all the way to school.' I giggled at the thought.
I ran for the stairs and walked into my classroom. Every girl in my class was glaring at me. I was glad that Rika, Naoko, Chiharu and Tomoyo-chan were smiling at me; I smiled back and greeted them all a wonderful morning. A girl with long dark lavender flowing hair and eyes of deep violet was running towards me giving me a bear hug.
"Why didn't you tell me about you and Syaoran-kun?" she let out a high-pitched squeal.
"Hoe!" I was blushing beet red. 'Did the whole school know?' my mind screamed. "H-How did y-you know?" I asked her stuttering.
"Hohohohoho! Good thing I brought my video camera today! I got it all on tape!" she stated stars twinkling in her eyes.
"Hoe!" I sweat dropped and explained the whole story to her. She had her dreamy state the whole entire class. I smiled; I never thought such a thing could make my best friend happy.
Syaoran's POV
'I can't believe how light she was. Man! I never thought I would be able to do that my entire life. Her skin, it was so soft and creamy. Her eyes, they were so deep that I thought I'd get lost in them. Her hair, the sweet scent of Cherry blossoms was all over them. Her body, she had perfect curves considering that she was very athletic. Who could never want a girl like her? Other than her body, she was smart, kind, friendly and very thoughtful. The only thing is that I think she has a little bit of "tomboy-ness" in her. Believe me, if there's anyone who knows all about her other than Tomoyo it's me; she has no boy friend when every guy goes wild just to ask her out; she doesn't like shopping, she rather do sports than go to the parlor; she hangs out a lot with guys (except for Tomoyo); she hates wearing dresses (other than skirts) and c'mon she never asked me out! What kind of girl won't fall for a guy like me?' His mind was out of his head flying over the clouds.
"Mr. Li! So what's the answer?" his math teacher; Mr. Takero snapped Syaoran out of his trance.
"Huh? What?" he was now sweating.
"Clearly, you haven't been paying attention!" Mr. Takero growled at Syaoran. He turned to the board and started his boring lectures once again. Syaoran actually was good at math, actually he loved it. His head had just better things to think of. 'Did what I just thought about Sakura be possible? Please no! Please don't let it be!" my mind was now screaming. Finally, the bell rang.
To Be Continued...
