I was so ready to die. That moron was in every single one of my classes so far. Now that it was lunch, Yuki was glued to one of my hips and Ariana was attached to my arm. We were walking around the Dining Hall, waiting for the Griffindor leader to pick a table for the house to sit at. The first year students were starting to line up for the Sorting. The Sorting Hat was sitting on a wooden stool that changed colors every 2 minutes. The first years were looking at the older students and whispering. I heard my name a few times. A black haired guy walked past them and smiled. I thought some of them were going to faint. I knew Harry was just being polite, but the girls didn't. All they knew was that they'd just been smiled at by the legendary Harry Potter.
"Have you seen the new guy? He's soooo cute!" Ariana was gushing to us.
"Ariana?" I looked at her.
"Yes?"
"Shut up."
"Oh, come on, Sakura, you know you think he's-"
"Ep."
"What?"
"Ep! Basic dog training word. Means 'no' or 'stop.' As in, stop talking about that perv!"
"Besides," Yuki chimed in. "He's taken."
"By who?" Ariana looked deflated.
Yuki threw her arm around me. "By our own little Saku-chan," she cooed.
I wriggled out from under her grasp. Turning to Ariana, I said, "Take him. Please, please, PLEASE! I hate that mother f-"
"Why?" Ariana gasped. "He's so cute, and smart, and cute, and athletic, and cute…"
"No he's not he's just a little sh-"
"So, is it really that bad with him?" Yuki asked me. She had no classes with me until Yearbook, and he was in that class too! "How bad can it be?"
"YES!!! And it can be very bad. That little son of a-"
"Whoa, Sakura, chill," Ariana interrupted me.
"Sorry. But it is really, really bad. He won't even leave me alone! I just wanna kill him! Aaaaaaaarg!"
"Saku-chan, he just likes you…"
"ICK! Don't remind me. No, really. Please, don't."
"…and you like him." Yuki continued as though I'd never spoken.
I shoved her playfully. "EW!!! That is soooooo wrong. And disgusting. And wrong. And revolsive. And wrong!"
"Revolsive?"
"Revolting and repulsive."
"Oh. But you still like him."
"NOOOOOO!!!!"
Ariana giggled. "Ooh, you angered the chibi!!!"
I rolled my eyes. "Yes, Ariana, we all know I'm short."
"And you're adorable, which is why you're the chibi of the group. But it's also why Syaoran likes yoooooou!!!" Yuki was giggling. The leader of Griffindor finally selected a table and we started walking towards it, still arguing away.
"But, Yuki, I-"
"You like him too." Ariana said between giggles.
"NO! STOP SAYING THAT!!!"
"If you don't like him, then why are you turning red?" Yuki tipped her head to the side and smiled cockily, like she thought she'd just won.
"I'm not!" I cried, even though I knew I was. "And how do you get that from 'revolsive' and 'disgusting' and 'wanna kill him'? How?!" I wanted to cry because I was so frustrated. Yuki was so blissfully oblivious.
"But Sakura…"
"But Yuki…!"
"You like him, he likes you," Ariana chimed in. She hugged me happily. "Lucky you, he's hawt!"
"Oh, no, Ariana! Not you too!" I wailed as I dropped my Mokona bag under the table. "Not you too, no. Ariana…" I sat down and pouted for the longest time. "Sushi," I said to the gold plate in front of me. It had been made to have whatever you wanted appear. All you had to do was say what you wanted to eat, and it would appear on your plate. Sure enough, I had a plate of tekka maki (tuna sushi) and California rolls in front of me. Yuki had spring rolls and Ariana had a veggie burger. Ever since she'd seen the program about slaughterhouses, she'd sworn off of meat. As a vegetarian, all she could do was stare enviously at my sushi-filled plate. And all I could do was poke at the fresh fish with my chopstick.
My friends were completely sold. They didn't know. They didn't know that he was truly disgusting, that he was a perv, that he'd stalked me around for the first eleven years of my life. I'd come here to escape the stalker, and all I'd done was make my friends like him.
And that made eating impossible.
