OK, soo, I forgot to mention that I will thank you (the people that added me to their favourites or story alerts or reviewed) all in the end of my story, like, at the end of the last chapter. Which means that I will


"Holy...crap." I muttered to myself as I walked in the room. I suddenly remembered today we had a quiz, and we had loads of homework from last class. Which I did not finish. Which means that I will get detention. Which will go on permanent record or something. Which will eventually lea--

OK. Never mind the homework. I DIDN'T STUDY FOR THE QUIZ!! What should I do?? Ok. Sakura, breathe in, out, in, out. Uh- oh. Here comes Madame Ko.

"Hello Sakura. Please take a seat."

I realised I was standing there, frozen like a statue, staring at the board.

"Huh? Oh. Ok." I sat down in my seat. Still worrying about the homework and test.

"Ok class I would like you to hand in your homework from last class. Then, pull your desks away from other desks and put everything away except for your writing utensils. We will start the quiz." Madame said almost immedietly.

Everyone got up with their homework and walked to the desk where we were supposed to hand in our homework. I just sat there, trying to figure out what to do. I could pretend that I handed it in, but it must've got lost later if she asks, or I can tell her I forgot it at home, or i could to tell her that I didn't do it. Weighing the choices, up, down, up, down... Ok. never mind that. Maybe i should just tell her that I forgot it and I promise to give it to her tomorrow. I walked up to her.

"Madame Ko, I forgot my homework today. I promise to bring it tomorrow, though." I told her, trying to look and sound as sincere as I can.

"Tsk tsk. Sakura, I'm afraid that you are going to have detention with me after school today." She said, looking very serious. I nodded and sat down. One down, one left. I have to get through the quiz with an above 86 to get another A. My parents are very strict on my letter grades, so I have to aim for an A or at least a B+. Or else my dad would be quite mad.

The quiz sheets passed down to me and I took one. Immedietly I could tell that it was quite easy. Verb Conjunction. I did those in grade 7! Reaching for my pen, I started on the first question...

I walked to my lunch period. At our school You have two periods in the morning and two after lunch. The classes alternate so we don't have one class for two days. I started to look for Tomoyo and Chiharu.

"Hey! Saku! Over here!" I heard someone call me. It was them and they were sitting at an almost empty table.

"Hey. What's for lunch?" I asked them.

"Nice ol' Mac & Cheese." Tomoyo asnwered.

"Ew. I hate cheese. Anything else?" I answered.

"They also have salad and soup. Chicken noodle soup." This time it was Chiharu who answered. She said the last part slow and teasingly. You wanna know why? I have a craving for chicken noodle soup, always. I can eat it anytime, really.

"Really? Yes!" I pumped my fist in the air and almost punched someone in the face. Oops.

""Whao Saku. What just made your day?" said the person who I almost punched. It was Eriol.

"The lousy caf serving chicken noodle soup today."

"Really?! I love chicken noodle soup! I didn't know the caf had that!" He looked really surprised and happy.

"Obviously. You got a salad, and everyone knows you hate your veggies." I answered.

"And that's the only right thing she said today." came a voice behind Eriol.

"Hoe? What do you mean, the only right thing that I've said today?!?" I almost yelled out to the guy. I could tell because his voice was deep. He stepped out to stand in front of me.

"Well, remember when you said I was dense? "

"DUH, doofus. What do I have, short term memory loss?"

"Well, you might. I don't know." Sweatdrop.

"Ever heard of sarcasm, Syaoran?"

"DUH, doofus!" he answered back using my phrase.

"Ran out of phrases to say to me, so you took mine?" I mocked him. He flinched. HA!

"No! Of course not!" He said, looking irritated.

"Sure..." I gave him my most sarcastic look.

"Um.. guys.. heh heh." It was Chiharu trying to get our attention. "I think we should go get lunch before the line gets too long."

"Ooh! Good idea!" I yelled, racing to the lunch line., only to be stepped on as soon as I got there by... THAT BIG FAT HEAVY GUY! STEALING MY SPOT IN LINE!!

"HEY! MISTER! THAT'S MY SPOT YOU JUST STOLE!" I elbowed him in the side and quickly took his spot when he retreated back.

"Ow! Sakura! What was that for!" Syaoran, aka Big Fat Heavy Guy yelled.

"For stealing my spot in line." I sounded smug, I couldn't help it.

"Sorry! Sheesh! What the BG?! It's just the line for lunch." He sounded offended.

"What's wrong with defending my spot in line? I got here first!'

"Nuh-uh!"

"Yuh-huh!"

"Nuh-uh!"

"Yuh-huh!"

"Shut Up You Guys! Just Freaking Shut Up, Ok?" That came from Moyo. Boy.. she looked mad. What went up her ass without me knowing?

"Sor-ry! What's wrong with you?" Syaoran and I said simulateously. Ok... Did he just agree with me? That's a first... He looked as surprised as me. The lips apart, forming a small O, those beautiful and soulful eyes widened...

Ok, Sakura. Reality check here.

I turned around to the front of the line, walking up to get my soup. The lady handed it to me, still hot, steaming a bit, yummm...

"Thanks." I smiled at her nicely, and walked on to the cashier place.

"Hey Sakura, can you get me a spoon? My hands are all used up." Syaoran said to me from behind me. I jumped. When did he get behind me?

"Uh.. sure, just a sec.." fumbling with my hands, I got one free and grabbed two spoons. Walking towards the table where I sat, I put down my soup and turned to Syaoran, who was right behind me, fumbling with his cookie, soup, and soda. Didn't the poor guy know how to get a tray?

"Well? Do you want me to give it to you now, or give it to you when you sit down?" I asked him.

"Uh.. here. Can you put it in my mouth for me?" Ok... what a weird request.

"Uh.. here." I said, sticking his spoon into his mouth. He made a sound, I guess it was supposed to mean "thanks". He walked off, and I sat down, looking confused.

"Oooohh..." was heard from Chiharu.

"What?" i asked her. She was looking at me like a mother looking at a small child doing something wrong, kind of pityingly. If that's a word.

"That was quite sweet of you, to stick his spoon into his mouth." I gave her a weird look and started to eat my chicken noodle soup. Suddenly I felt someone poke my face. I sweatdropped.

"Uh.. Moyo, why are you poking me?"

"Dear dear Sakkie. Remember last time you ate chicken noodle soup? You took a big gulp of air and swallowed it with the soup and later you got a really bog stomach cramp." she looked at me, sort of amused. "I was trying to make sure that your cheek didn't have air in it."

Ok...

"Moyo, that's so weird." Chiharu said to her.

"I was helping her! That's not weird!"

"By poking someone's cheek?"

"What? I know someone who did it to someone before. And that was just for fun. Right Sakura???" Oh yeah. Last year.. no actually last last year, I poked Syaoran's cheek once because he had a bruise on it, and I was hoping to make it feel better... what? I had to find out where the bruise was before I could help, didn't I?

"Hey! How can you remember something like that?! You forget the most important things, Moyo." I almost whined at her.

"I don't know. I remember small things, I guess."

"Ok.." I quickly finished my soup, knowing that the bell was going to ring in a few minutes. "Listen guys, I have homework today, so I can't hang, K?" They nodded. "Bye!" I waved, gathered up my garbage, and walked off, almost slamming into Eriol.

"Oh! I'm sorry. Again." I apologized.

"It's Ok. Hey Saku, do you have time right now? I need help with math homework."

"Sure. Meet me in the study hall, K?" He nodded and I walked off towards the garbage can.

I walked to the study hall with my homework binder and my pens a few minute later. Spotting Eriol sitting in the corner, I walked towards him.

"Hi." I said, pulling up a chair.

"Hi. Thank you so much for helping me with my homework. Teach is gonna kill me it I don't have this done by third period." he answered, scooting over to make room for me. "You don't mind if I asked Syaoran to join us, would you? He needs help too, and he's in my math class."

"I know. I'm in your math class, Eriol. Remember?" I rolled my eyes at him.

"Oh...oh yeah! You are in my math class, Saku! I forgot!"

"Obviously." I mumbled under my breath. "Ok. What do you need help on?"

"This, this, and this." He pointed to three questions. All of them were exponents.

"Oh. You don't really get exponents, do you."

"Nope."

"Ok. Do you know what they are?"

"Nope."

I sighed. "Ok. An exponent is when you multiply the normal sized number by itself the number of the times the small number says. For example. This question. This is equal to 9x9x9x9x9x9x9x9. Do you understand?"

"No."

"Yes."

The first one came from Syaoran, who joined us when I started explaining. the second one was from Eriol.

"Well, Eriol, since you understand it, why don't you explain it to Syao here, and I'll start on my homework?" I asked them, turning away and starting before they could answer.

I went through my last two periods feeling quite down. Why? Because it was time for my detention with Madame Ko, and let's just say that detention with another teacher would've probably made it easier.

I walked into her classroom only to find there was someone already there. It was Meiling. She probably also got detention from Madame Ko for texting in class or something. that's what usually got people landed in detention, besides homework.

"Hi Meiling." I said as I walked in.

"Oh hi Sakura. Did you get detention as well?"

Duh. "Yeah. Forgot my homework. What about you?"

"Texting in class." What did I tell you?

"What do we do? Where's Madame Ko?" i asked her, noticing that the old woman was not in the room.

"Gone to the bathroom. Might be a while." Oh... "We're supposed to clean up here."

"Ok. I'll erase the board, and pick up the scraps of paper."

"And I'll move the desks back to normal and arrange the pencils and stuff over there."

"Ok."

"Ok." We both got to work, not really talking to each other. Akward silence filled the room.

"What's the new guy's name? I heard he's in your homeroom class."

"Who?"

"The one with galsses, midnight hair and lots of money."

"Oh. Shinji."

"Is he dating anyone?"

"I think taht he and Hikaru are meeting today so she can show him around." Please tell me you aren't thinking of dating him.

"Oh." Akward silence filled the room again. Suddenly Meiling took a deep breath, turned to me, and said...

Muahahaha. I'm going to end it there now. Please review, and remember, critisism welcome! I hoped you liked the lil bit o' romance in it...
