Syaoran turned his head and looked at the girls that Erica was introducing. They were all amazingly beautiful and from the way they are standing and the way they are looking at him, he could tell that these girls are not to be messed with. Even though he only transferred into this school for a week or so, he already heard some of the major rumors that were flying around. He knew that the school was basically being run by two major cliques and that they were all beautiful, but honestly, hearing it and seeing it are two different things.
Despite this, Syaoran knew that these certain types of people bring lots of trouble. He knows because he has dealt with these girls in the past before. Thinking about the past, especially with this one relationship with this girl who looked as innocent and beautiful as an angel, brought back memories along with sadness and anger. He was so much in love with her that he was ready to give his heart to her but she…she said things that he would never forget in his life.
As his mind pondered these things, his eyes were on their own schedule. For some reason, they landed on a specific green-eyed girl. In fact, the word "green" was too general to use, more specifically, her eyes were the most beautiful emerald colour he has ever seen. Even though green is his favourite colour, it is because he could see depth in her eyes. There certainly was more to this girl than what she puts out to be.
In the inside, Sakura felt a bit of uneasiness when she could feel Syaoran's intense eyes on her. Although she showed no emotions on the outside, she felt confused in the inside. That's because she doesn't understand why she is feeling this way just because a guy is staring at her. She should be used to it by now. 'Aren't I?' She thought to herself.
Although Tomoyo was just as dumbstrucked by these men's handsome looks, especially the guy with black hair with a tint of blue in it that is being illuminated by the lights. His eyes are so dreamy she could feel herself drowning in them. She doesn't know if the other girls could feel it, but this guy sends out a calm and cool vibe. 'Damn, what am I doing? I can't believe I'm letting this guy get under my skin. I have to get a grip on myself.' She snapped out of her trance and looked away, breaking the eye contact with the guy whose name was Eriol.
She looked at Mei Lin and Sakura. They were just as dumbstruck as she was. 'I have to bring them back to their senses. I don't want those stupid Irresistibles to know that these boys got under our skin,' she thought to herself. She was about to make a move, but she saw Mei Lin's features begin to slightly change from being dumbstrucked to irritation.
Mei Lin stared in awe at the handsome guy with red streaks in his black hair named Jason. He is definitely somewhat close to meeting most of her high standards. He was tall, around 6'1 and built. His style wasn't bad either. He was wearing blue jeans and a slightly tight white shirt that showed the outlines of his muscles. They made eye contact and although Mei Lin felt herself being slightly attracted to him, she pushed those feelings away and glared at him as she saw the flirtatious wink that he sent her.
"Listen, I don't give a two shit that you guys just got transferred here from whatever the hell hole you came from but you best know how things work around here. Learn the rules and live by them. I'll be nice and tell you guys something since you guys are amateurs to the school: mess with any one of us, and we will mess with you. Take this not simply as a warning but also as a threat," explained Mei Lin, crossing her arms as she looked at the 3 guys.
Tomoyo felt relieved in the inside. 'At least one of us regained our poise to actually say something. If we didn't, the Irresistibles will take it as a weakness. That cannot happen,' thought Tomoyo as she looked at Sakura. She could tell that Sakura was back to her senses, even though nobody could tell that she was ever awe strucked from the beginning. The Untouchables were always good at concealing their true feelings and emotions. It was thought of as a sign of weakness and therefore it must be eliminated.
"What needs to be said has been said. Let's go," said Sakura, as she turned her back to Erica and her Irresistibles and the guys. Tomoyo, Mei Lin, Rika, Chiharu and Takashi also turned their backs to Erica and group and began walking away with Sakura. However, after a couple of steps, Sakura stopped and turned on her heel to face Erica again.
"Oh and one more thing, Woodson. You will definitely not get away with trying to hurt my friends like that. My warning to you is that you better expect the unexpected because I WILLunexpectedly hurt you 10 times more," Sakura said in a threatening tone. She gave the Irresistibles one long stare before she turned on her heel and continued walking off.
"I'm sorry Syaoran, Eriol and Jason for what just happened. I was just hoping to introduce you guys to them so you guys can meet more people from the school. I don't know why they said such awful things to you guys. They are always like that," said Erica apologetically, looking down on her GUESS white heels.
"Yeah, Sakura and her group said that we hurt their friends, but we really didn't. That Takashi came up and started kissing Miranda and his girlfriend, Chiharu, thinks that its Miranda's fault. Takashi lied and…" said Kaia, but she was interrupted by Syaoran.
"No, you guys don't really have to explain. It doesn't really concern us. We actually don't want to be apart of this drama," explained Syaoran, looking at his friends for help.
"Yeah, don't worry about it. We understand that you girls had good intentions, it wasn't your fault," said Eriol sympathetically .
"That's good that you guys understand. The Untouchables have always detested us for some reason. Maybe it's because they saw us as a threat to them which makes them have to act that way…" said Miranda, but she stopped when she saw the hard look that Erica was giving her.
"Would you guys like eat lunch with us later?" asked Erica smiling sweetly, looking at Syaoran.
Before Syaoran could answer, Jason already beat him to it.
"That's great. We'll see you at lunch then," said Jason.
"Cool. We'll meet up during lunch time alright. See you guys later. Have fun in your first day of classes," said Erica, before she walked away, with Miranda and Kaia behind her.
Syaoran, Eriol and Jason turned the other way and started walking to their classroom. "Damn, those girls were sizzling smokin' hot. Especially that black haired chick. I could tell that she's feisty," said Jason, smiling at the memory of Mei Lin.
"You sound like you haven't seen hot girls around before, Jason. If I didn't know you better, I would have thought the only girls that you revolve around are…," replied Eriol. Jason laughed and punched Eriol on the shoulder. "Whatever man," he said.
"It's time for class. Let's go," replied Syaoran, after glancing one more time at the direction that Sakura walked off from.
***
It was just any other day in class, boring as hell, almost to the point where Sakura just wants to get up from her chair and walk out the school, drive her car to the mall and just shop for hours with Tomoyo and Mei Lin. It was math class and it was Sakura's least favourite subject. Sakura was always a straight A+ student. Contrary to what people believe, that beautiful people are stupid and lazy, Sakura was never one to become lazy. She worked hard for her marks because she wanted her father to be proud of her. She didn't want her father to start worrying about her because he already have been through a lot – especially after the death of his wife, Sakura's mother.
She looked at the blackboard and saw her teacher, Mr. Bourne, writing out a new formula: y= mx+b onto the board. Sakura began to space out after trying so hard to focus to what the teacher was saying. 'Honestly, I don't understand why we even need to learn this formula. Do we need to learn how to calculate the slope of anything to earn a living? I hardly think so,' thought Sakura in her mind. She sighed and whipped out her Vertu Ascent Ti Ferrari cellphone.
Saku: Moyo
Moyo: whats up Saku
Saku: gather some of the people to the house, you know what we need to do
Moyo: Got it. I'll let Meimei know.
Saku: Thanks.
Right then, the bell rang which signalled the end of school for the day. With her books already packed up beforehand, Sakura took her Burberry duffel bag and swiftly walked out the door. Walking through the hallway, three of the girls that was at their lockers putting on their lip gloss, saw that Sakura was walking through the hallway so they turned around and nodded to her as she walked passed. Sakura smiled and as she turned her head back around, she saw that Tomoyo was walking alongside with her.
"Oh hey Tomoyo, I didn't see you coming. You need a ride to the house?" asked Sakura, as she smiled and nodded to a couple of guys who was walking past them.
"Yes, that would be nice," replied Tomoyo, "Urgh. I hate those stupid Irresistable followers. Always glaring and giving us the dirty looks every damn day. It's sucha piss off sometimes when you're in a bad mood."
Sakura laughed. "They're not worth our time, Tomoyo. Don't be bothered by them."
A few lockers ahead, a couple of nerds were punching around with each other, talking really loud. One of them reached inside their lockers and pulled out a chocolate pudding and opened the tin foil. He was holding it out using it as if it's a weapon, threatening to squirt his friends with it. As he squirted, his friend ducked away, and it splattered across the floor, splattering some onto Sakura's expensive white Prada heels.
People who saw what happened immediately stopped what they're doing and just stared at Sakura, Tomoyo and the nerds. After hearing a sudden quietness from one direction, students from the other side of the hallway came to see what was happening. For a moment, there wasn't even a whisper. The nerds stared in horror from the chocolate pudding on Sakura's white heels, to Sakura and Tomoyo. It seemed as if for a moment, time stopped and everyone was waiting to see how Sakura would react.
The nerds gulped, and the one who squirted the chocolate pudding in the first place silently and slowly took some tissues from his locker and tried to wipe the chocolate pudding off Sakura's heels. However, before he could, some of the boys came in front and shoved him away.
"What makes you think you're even worthy enough to wipe it, you freak?" asked Kane.
"I'm so-so-sorry Kin-Kin..." sluttered the nerd, his eyes wide with fright but he was interrupted by Kane. "Oh shut your mouth. Whatever you have to say will not save you now," he said, a disgusted look on his face.
"Boys," said Sakura. The guys along with Kane turned facing Sakura's back. "Initiate them for me, would you?" Without waiting for a reply or turning to face the nerds or Kane and the group, she briskly continued to walk through the hallway to the front doors of the school. She was well aware of all the stares she's getting from the rest of the student body, but she did not care. Tomoyo glanced at the poor nerds who were being roughly shoved into their small lockers one by one and turned around to follow in Sakura's footsteps. ' There must be something on Sakura's mind. She usually isn't this unforgiving.'
As Sakura neared the front doors of the school, a familiar guy with chestnut brown hair and chocolate brown eyes came into view, looking at her with a frown. Sakura had a feeling that he was going to say something, but as she walked until she was two metres away with a straight face void of any emotions, she suddenly felt a tug in her heart. She didn't understand what it meant, but at the moment there wasn't any time to think about it.
"Was that really necessary? They already tried to apologize for spilling the chocolate on your heels," said Syaoran, watching her and Tomoyo walk past him without even a glance towards him. It didn't matter to Syaoran though, he knew that manners wasn't a strength in these girls' character. But still, he couldn't believe how cruel they actually were to those students.
"Hey, I'm talking to you," said Syaoran louder, deepening his frown as he looked at them. Tomoyo opened the door for Sakura, and she walked out without looking back or giving a response. Before following Sakura out the door, Tomoyo looked at Syaoran and said, "If you know what's best for you, just mind your own business, Li. What we do to others does not concern you."
Syaoran watched as the door closed. He sighed, thinking to himself, 'I haven't been here for a full week, and there is already drama. I have to say that the Irresistables are a much friendlier group of girls' He turned around, walking through the hallway to try and find Eriol.
From a distance, where Erica Woodson and her two best friends, Miranda and Kaia stood, they watched the entire scene that just happened. Erica smirked, pleased with her handiwork and said, "Girls, bring the nerds to me. I think they deserve a reward for a job well done."
