Seven Years Ago...
"Sakura! Congratulations! You finally defeated the Enemy!" Tomoyo said, approaching her.
"Your Mission is now finish," Keroberos said, nodding
"Yatta!" Sakura screamed happily as she jumps.
Syaoran Li looked down and sighed. He clenched his fist and took a deep breath. "It's time to say goodbye..."
Everyone looked at him. Sakura frowned, "Shaoran-kun..."
Syaoran forced a smile, "Meiling and I will go back to China." He paused; "since... the mission is done, and the cards have chosen their mas-umph" he was silenced by Sakura's sudden bear hug that nearly knocked him over. "Sakura..." he whispered as he hugged her back and then he realized he was crying.
When they both let go of each other, Sakura wiped her tear and smiled at him. "Promise me that we will be friends forever?" she asked,
Syaoran nodded, "Hai."
Sakura raised her hand for a pinky promise, "Pinky Promise?"
Syaoran accepted it, "Yes. I promise."
They both did the pinky promise...
Seven Years Later...
"Ohayou!"
All eyes on the cheery student entering the classroom and they all greeted her back.
Sakura Kinomoto, age 17. She grew into a beautiful lady that every man in the school dreams of. Years had passed; she is now living a normal life because the two guardians decided to live with Clow Reed in England.
Sakura sat on her chair while waiting for the class to start. Her eyes caught the peony flowers in the classroom vase that was brought by one of her classmates. A certain person entered her mind. I wonder... how is he? Shaoran-kun...
Her thoughts were disturb when their teacher entered the classroom.
Sakura sighed as she stands outside the gate of the fuurinkan high. Fuurinkan high was known as a wild high school and up until now, she couldn't understand why in the world Tomoyo decided to enroll in this school. All she knew is that Tomoyo decided to try the wild school to improve personality. But what's wrong with her personality though? A sweat drop appeared on her hair as she saw the principal running around the campus like a lunatic.
"Sakura-chan!"
Sakura smiled seeing her friend, "I came to pick you up," she said,
Tomoyo giggled, "Why thank you, so how is school?" she asked, as they started walking away from the school.
Sakura frowned, "School is fine. On the other hand, your school-"
Tomoyo giggled more, "... is fantastic! The principal is very funny! He kept mentioning us that he doesn't like delinquent students so we should study more and be diligent!"
Sakura shook her head no, "He is the delinquent one... Tomoyo-chan."
"But guess who enrolled here in Fuurinkan high?" Tomoyo asked while Sakura blinked. "It's Meiling-chan."
Sakura gasped, "Hontou ni?" she asked, Tomoyo nodded her head yes. "How is she?"
Tomoyo giggled, "Still the same Meiling-chan."
Sakura sighed in relief, "Yokatta... I thought she has changed."
The next day after the school bell rang for dismissal, Sakura was about to pick up her bag when she heard someone calling her. She looked and saw three of her classmates approaching her.
"Sakura-chan, we are going to the arcade do you want to join us?"
Sakura smiled at them, they've been inviting her for weeks now but she always bail out at the last moment because of Tomoyo. She picked her bag and nodded.
At the arcade, Sakura just stood behind her classmates playing a dance revolution game. She wasn't fond of that game so she told her classmates that she will look for another game. Everyone nodded and kept dancing. Looking around, she couldn't find an interesting game. So she decided to go back to her classmates. But before she could go back, she saw the game 'Toshingden' she stopped in front of the empty chair and the game was currently on. She remembered how she and Keroberos used to play the game.
"I think I am going to play this game," as she sat on the chair. Whoever left this game must thank her for finishing the battle.
Someone is sitting on his chair.
Syaoran frowned as he looked at the girl. Didn't she see the card? Everyone knows that if there is a card on the machine it means it is reserved. Before his temper increased, he suddenly felt a familiar presence surrounding the girl. So slowly, he approached her and his eyes widened. Is she...? Auburn hair? Green eyes... He didn't realize he was already standing beside the game machine and the girl was frowning at him, annoyance showing on her face.
Didn't someone tell you that it is bad to stare at other people?
He blinked, "E-Excuse me?"
"You're staring."
And you're in my seat.
Sakura gasped, How rude! Her gasped turned into frown,"What do you mean by that?"
The guy pointed at the card. "It is reserved."
Sakura blushed as she noticed the card for the first time. How could she not see that card? She was about to apologized but when she saw him smirked, she glared at him. Well two can play at this game. "Well Mister-whoever-you-are. Even though this machine is reserved, but you happened to leave it while playing. Which is-"
"Kinda rude?"
Sakura paused and gritted her teeth.
"So tell me Miss-whoever-you-are." His smirked grew wider. "Which is ruder? Me, staring at you or You, stealing my game?"
Before Sakura could retort back, obviously she wasn't an expert in this kind of 'name calling'. She heard her classmates calling her.
Sakura-chan! Let's go!
Syaoran looked at the voice where he heard her name. Then he looked back at the girl in front of him waving at them.
"I'll be there in a second!" she said, picking up her bag. Then she looked back at him. "It's all yours. Enjoy it."
He quickly grabbed her arm to stop her and said, "Wait!" he then quickly released her, when he saw her glaring at him, "Sorry! It was a reflex!" he said, his hands up straight in the air.
"To answer your question earlier, you are ruder than me." Sakura said, while crossing her arms over her chest. "Pervert" she added,
"Even at the arcade, you are being pursued? What is your secret?" they giggled.
Syaoran looked at the girls who are now standing beside them. Ignoring them, he looked at the angry Sakura in front of him. "W-What is your name?" he asked, which made Sakura rolled her eyes.
One of Sakura's classmates came to stand in front of Syaoran, "Hey cutie-pie... I don't think Sakura-chan is interested." she said, "But my name is Hikaru Suboshi." She said,
But Syaoran's eyes didn't left Sakura, "Sakura... what?"
Sakura shook her head and looked away, then one of her classmates replied Syaoran. "Kinomoto"
Syaoran took a step back, like he almost lost his balance. The girl he wanted to see for so long is now in front of him and he acted stupidly. It seemed to him that he couldn't move his feet. So, he just stood there while the girls started walking away from him.
Is he one of your suitors Sakura-chan?
No. And I don't know him.
He is cute though.
I don't care.
Syaoran blinked, he couldn't believe that the rude girl he met today was his childhood friend... Sakura Kinomoto. Why is she so rude?
