For all the lovely people who reviewed in the first chapter, thank you!

I got a review concerning that I made Sakura too OOC. I thought the point of fanfics were supposed to be where you can devise your own plot and make characters do what you want them to do? I've seen Sakura in other fics where she's a serial killer or something, doesn't that make her OOC as well? But still, thank you for that review because I now know that I shouldn't change her too much.

And also, this story will be mostly on Sakura's point of view. And first names will be mentioned first.

Remember the age-old saying, 'Expect it when you least expect it'?

Apparently, I found out the hard way that it applies to lunch breaks as well. You might be wondering what in the world I'm talking about. But this isn't one of those cases where we actually saw a live animal still alive in the so-called 'food' which the cafeteria gives out. I've read books and watched TV about it, where they see a rat in their plate of "Tuesday Specials" or something like that in the cafeteria. But thank God our cafeteria serves out decent food.

But…

It was something WAY, WAY worse than "Tuesday Specials" in TV.

It all started when my friends and I decided to eat lunch near the Cherry Blossom tree outside. Everything was fine, Naoko was talking about how global warming was happening in a very fast rate and then we're all going to die, Chiharu was talking about Yamazaki's latest lie, Rika was talking about the new stock in the D-I-Y shop near the school, Tomoyo was talking about her latest designs for all of us and I was thinking about how to get back at Touya for the alarm clock-incident.

When I suddenly forgot about my chopsticks which were still in my locker. I excused myself and headed towards it and-

This is where the saying 'Expect it when you least expect it' applies, folks…

-saw Syaoran Li making-out with Laura Miyagi, against the lockers. (A.N. – Sorry SweetMelancholy! I just HAD to do this!)

Specifically, against MY locker...

You might be thinking, so they're making-out. Totally normal for high school students. What made me so "Expect the unexpected"?

And you know what?

I was asking myself the same thing. But they're making-out! Against MY locker! MY locker, people!

I cleared my throat, loudly. Very loudly. And they still haven't stopped. I tried again. Louder. Failed.

Since clearing my throat didn't work, I guess I didn't have any other choice... I whistled, very loudly might I add, until they broke apart, panting.

"What was that for?" Laura asked me.

"You idiots! You freaking idiots! You're making-out against MY locker, damn it!!!"

Except, I didn't say that, instead, I said –IN A VERY POLITE MANNER,-

"Could you please -um- make-out some other place except MY locker?" I asked in my SWEETEST voice possible for this situation.

I wanted to make it as humanly mature and quick as possible. But, no Syaoran Li just had to make things more complicated. "Aww, I think Kura-chan is mad…" he said while giving me a pout. Immediately after that, he gave me the infamous Syaoran Li smirk.

Maybe I should call one of Tomoyo's bodyguards right now to give me a gun…

"No, I'm not mad. It's just that I need to get something from my locker." I said, still using my SWEETEST voice for this situation.

"Oh, so this is Kura-chan's locker, eh?" He asked, still smirking. Somehow, I was getting a bit uncomfortable with this conversation.

"Syao-kun! Leave her alone and let's continue somewhere else, pretty please?" Laura was now grabbing onto 'Syao-kun's' shoulder like a five-year old whining for ice-cream. She added a pout for 'effect'. What? She actually thinks it's cute?

Yeah, right. And please note the sarcasm.

"I'm sorry…um… whatever your name is but I want to stay here for a little while longer." Syaoran tried to say, in a very bored tone.

Okay, I know that Laura is a bit irritating and clingy, but did he have to be that mean? He didn't even remember her name. He just French kissed her and he's throwing the whole situation aside like gum on a piece of paper? Wait… was it REALLY a French kiss?

Hey, why should I care again?

But to my utter surprise, Laura took it quite well. She just pouted, crossed her arms across her chest and walked away. Actually, stomped would be a better word.

"Aren't you going to… um… follow her or something?" I asked him, pointing towards Laura's direction, not knowing why I suddenly cared.

"Nah," he replied, while leaning against the lockers, fortunately, not on mine but next to it.

"Why?"

"Because I'm afraid you'll get jealous." And he said it with a bit of playfulness in his voice.

WHAT?!

"Jealous? Me? I don't know what you're talking about."

Really, I'm telling the truth here, alright? I'm not jealous. I saw Syaoran Li making out with Laura Miyagi. So what?

"Oh really? Then why did you want us to stop?"

Ha! I have a perfectly good reason why I wanted you to stop!

"I forgot my chopsticks in my locker, which you two were making out against." I was using my SWEET voice, but not the SWEETEST one.

And as far as I remember, this is only your first day of school Li! But you're already toying around with the girls here! What gives you the right to do so?

That was what I wanted to say, except that, I didn't. Because it would be wrong and just flat-out embarrassing.

"Oh yeah? Then why is your face red?" Doesn't this guy ever shut up? He had the nerve to poke my cheek too.

And my face is turning red because of fury. Nothing to do with jealousy. Cross my heart, I'm telling the truth.

I opened my locker, looking for my chopsticks. Which now I realize I should have done earlier, rather than start this whole conversation. I still didn't give him an answer though, because I really just wanted to get back to eating near the Cherry Blossom tree with my friends. I didn't even want any eye contact either. So I just took my chopsticks and started to walk back. Away from him.

But he just HAD to follow.

"Why are you following me? Don't you have better things to do Li-kun?" But he just put his hands in his pockets and simply said,

"Not really,"

And he just followed me all the way back.

"Sakura! What took you so long? We were waiting for fifteen minutes already!" Whined Chiharu. But when she saw Syaoran Li behind me, smiling, and me biting my bottom lip while my face was red with fury, she just let out a silent "Oh…" while Naoko, Rika and Tomoyo tried to restrain themselves from jumping up and down like they won the lottery or something.

Are they thinking what I think they're thinking? Did they actually thought something happened between me and him?

Because nothing, absolutely NOTHING happened.

"Konnichiwa, Li-kun!" The four of them chorused together, at the exact same time.

"Uh, Hi..." clearly he found it a bit strange I guess.

"Did you happen to see Eriol around here?" he asked. Hey wait. So he followed me here to look for Eriol? And I thought he actually wanted to eat with me or-

I mean, so that's why he followed me here. I should have known.

"Nope, haven't seen him." The four of them still said at the exact same time. Something tells me this isn't coincidence.

"Oh well, thanks for telling me. I'll go look for him now."

And with that, he walked away from our spot.

And when he was out of ear-shot, I got attacked by my 'friends' and nearly tumbled over while still being attacked by questions.

"You and Syaoran?" "So it really DID happen!" "Ohohohoho! I can't wait to make your outfits for your dates!" "Wow Sakura! It's only his first day here and you're already together?"

Those were just some examples. If I listed all, it would go on for ages.

I tried to get out of their steel-like grip.

"Hold on! HOLD ON! Me and Syaoran Li ARE NOT TOGETHER!" I shouted.

And they didn't listen.

The last bell finally rung. Which means I can finally avoid Tomoyo's questions and offers of Wedding Dresses. Puh-lease. Just because he followed me towards the tree DOES NOT MEAN I'M GOING TO NEED WEDDING DRESSES LATER!

But no matter. I can take this in slowly.

At least I'm looking forward to work now. Being candy-counter girl at a hotel has its perks sometimes. Besides, I heard from someone that the owner's son is coming. So I guess I have to be in my best behavior today. Not that I've ever been irresponsible in work. Because I've never.

"Wow Sakura, you look like you're thinking about something pretty deeply."

"No Trina, a lot of things happened to my life today."

That was Trina, actually, her real name is Katrina but she says she's a dog-person so she decided to drop the 'Kat'. Kind of weird, eh? She's 17 and almost my height, red hair which was let down with a butterfly clip on the left side and hazel eyes. She works here as the cashier for the souvenir shop. And our shifts are starting in about 15 minutes, so I guess it's alright to talk

"I heard that Mr Li's son is gorgeous!" She was gushing… like always. When Orlando Bloom came to the MayFlower last year, he almost put a restraining order on her. Almost.

"Heh, all my problems started when a new guy transferred in our class today with the same last name." I dropped my head on the counter.

"Cheer up! So what do you think he'll look like? Tall, dark and handsome?" She was curious, no doubt.

"I have no idea, but I hope he's not the spoilt type."

"That would be a turn-off, eh?" She closed her eyes and shook her head.

I laughed. "Yeah, besides, I really wouldn't know. I never seen his face on any magazines or news channels."

"That's because you're always too busy with either work or school. You don't even socialize much. Anyways, back to the topic. He's also the heir to the Li Clan, right? I highly doubt all his martial arts training made him spoilt."

"In fact he isn't."

That voice… Oh no...

"Well, well, well. Kura-chan is actually working in my dad's hotel, eh?"

And there he stood. Still with that smirk on.

Now we're getting started! Whoo!

I know that this is cliche, concerning that it has the classic love-hate relationship and blah blah blah, but you guys! This is only the second chapter... I'm going to put more meaning to it than just fluff and cheesy humor. I'm not the kind of author which will only put crack into my chaptered fics, I put real drama in it too. Sooner or later. And about Sakura's OOC-ness, I love her too much to change her completely. Most of the things you read here are only her thoughts, not what she says. Oh, and I'm not sure what this site does to my chapters, sometimes words are stuck together and has spelling errors. I check them at least 5 times but they sometimes keep appearing.

And don't forget… the review button!
