Chapter 2 – The Match
Syaoran's POV
"BRRIIIINGGGG!!!"
Well, there goes the bell again. I better check what I have next period. Hmmm…P.E. class! Maybe if I exercise a little I can get Sakura out of my mind.
Sakura's POV
I was wondering what class I had next, but I had already misplaced my schedule. I'm such a klutz! So I had to ask Tomoyo.
"Hey Tomoyo!" I said
"Yeah?"
"I just wanted to know, what do we have next period? I lost my schedule…"
"-sigh- Sakura what would you do without me?"
"Nothing."
Tomoyo chuckled and replied "alright, we have P.E., one of your favourite classes. You better stick with me until you find that schedule of yours."
"Yes m'am!" I said with a smile on my face.
I loved Tomoyo as a sister. She was my best friend and confidence; although…she can get a wee bit annoying sometimes. She's always carrying around her camera trying to film my every move. She also loves designing costumes for me. Whether it's for a date or party or just a night out in town, I'm always wearing her creations.
---------- P.E. Class
Syaoran's POV
As I went out in the field with my gym uniform, which consisted of white shorts and a white t-shirt which had one sripe of green through it, I saw Sakura. She was with her friend Tomoyo, and I just couldn't believe she was in the same class as me again. -sigh- Great, so much for trying to forget about her…My thought were interrupted when the teacher came out…
"Alright girls and guys, it's your first gym class and I, Mr. Kuchi, will be marking your skills and effort in this class. Since it's the first class, let's have some fun by playing a co-ed singles tournament in tennis! First one to win the rally moves on the next round."
"Yeah! Syaoran, you'll beat everyone for sure!" Eriol screamed at me.
"Yep, that's right!" I replied while grabbing a tennis racket from a bin.
"Ok, first up Tomoyo versus Yuuhi." said Mr. Kuchi.
"Awww…too bad that wasn't me. Hey Syaoran, isn't Yuuhi on the tennis team? He's the big jerk right? The one who's always cocky?"
"Yeah, and not to mention one of my rivals in this game…"
Sakura's POV
"Go Tomoyo! Go!" I screamed. I knew Yuuhi was on the tennis team and that Tomoyo never really played tennis except with me, but hey, she was always a miracle worker.
"You can do it Tomoyo!" I screamed once more, but then Yuuhi hit topspin to the left corner and she wasn't fast enough to reach it.
"Phew! Man, that Yuuhi is good." aaid Tomoyo as she sat right next to me on the ground.
"Well he IS on the tennis team. Not to mention a jerk as well."
"Ha ha, true. Very true."
---------- 35 minutes later… (still Sakura's POV)
"Ok, now we are commencing semi-finals! First match: Syaoran versus Yuuhi!"
"Hey, look Sakura, aren't both of them on the tennis team?" said Tomoyo
"I'm not so sure about that guy Syaoran…"
"Well let's see how they do. Whoever wins is going to the finals, and hopefully you'll win your semi-final match as well." Tomoyo said.
The two players assumed their positions, and Mr. Kuchi hit a ball towards Syaoran to start the rally. They were pretty good hitters, they just kept on hitting to each other harder and harder until Syaoran ran up for a volley.
"Say, isn't that dangerous Sakura?"
"It depends. In this case, I would say Yuuhi will win. He's going to power drive his next hit so that Syaoran can't get to it."
And like I said, Yuuhi hit a power drive, but somehow, Syaoran managed to get it and deflect it so that Yuuhi couldn't get it…
"And our first finalist is Syaoran!"
I was pretty surprised. I guess now I know he's good in tennis. I was going to go and congratulate him, but a group of fangirls were in my way, so I just sat there with Tomoyo.
Syaoran's POV
"Hey Eriol! You see that?"
"Yeah, that was awesome man! I can't believe you did it!"
"Phew, well the next round is gonna be easy. I'll be facing a girl."
"Yeah yeah, don't get all cocky, you're starting to sound like Yuuhi." chuckled Eriol. "Hey Syao–" Eriol was cut off suddenly when a group of fangirls decided to attack me.
"OMIGOSH, SYAORAN, YOU'RE SOOO GOOD!", "Like totally, he rocks!", "EEEEEK!" I was getting annoyed so I asked them nicely to move so I could get through to watch the next match. But by the time they decided to stop hovering around me, I missed the match. So I just decided to wait until Mr. Kuchi announced who I was going to play against.
"Ok, FINAL MATCH! Syaoran versus Sakura!"
"Whhhhaaaaaaaatttt?!" I said outloud, but I was quick enough to cover my mouth so that no one except Eriol could hear me.
"Are you scared of facing a girl?" Eriol said with an intriguing smile.
"No no no, I was just…errr…" and I dashed away to the court without answering him.
When I got to the court Sakura was there smiling and put out her hand. I was a bit surprised by this gesture and began to blush as I shook her hand.
"Good luck." She said.
"…" I didn't really say anything, but I wanted to, I just couldn't get the words out of my mouth…damned nerves…
Sakura's POV
I don't know why, but I couldn't help but look at Syaoran for the whole time when we were rallying. 6, 7, 8, 9, 10…we just kept on hitting. Then he started hitting harder so I tried my best to hit harder, but I couldn't match his power, so, I landed a drop shot, and to my luck, he couldn't get it.
"Oh my God! Sakura you won!" Tomoyo said as she ran towards me.
"I really did?!"
"Well obviously, that was some nice manoeuvre!" Tomoyo said while laughing.
Syaaron's POV
I was really surprised that Sakura beat me, but at the same time I was smiling and laughing…I couldn't help it. I kept on smiling, and smiling until Eriol came along and tore up my rainbow.
"Hey, you ok?"
"Yeah."
"You sure? You just got beaten by a girl…"
"And your point is?"
"You're falling for her."
My mind stopped right there…was I really falling for her?
To Be Continued…
Dum dum dummmmm…I tried ending in suspense. I think its good…well there you have it! Review please!
