Chapter 4: Leo's Jam

Another day at Mission Creek High School…

"Hey guys." Leo walked up to Adam, Chase and Sakura.

"Hi." Sakura waved.

"With the dance coming up, I thought I can give you a lesson or two about asking a lady out." Leo began.

"Well, for starters, I'm not a lady…yet, but I want out." Sakura raised a hand as Chase laughed.

"Great. Do you know who can teach us?" Adam asked.

"Me." Leo pointed out.

"Not gonna end well~" Sakura hummed as Adam and Chase snickered.

"You're gonna watch me as I ask out the girl of my dreams. Danielle~" Leo smiled dreamily at a honey blonde girl who was sitting by the bench.

"Danielle? Isn't she the girl who uses you as a foot stool in Math Class?" Chase asked.

"Where else is she supposed to put her feet? On the FLOOR?!" Leo exclaimed.

"Uh…yes?" Sakura frowned.

"Open up your notebooks boys, because class is in session!" Leo smirked as he went to Danielle and stood with one foot on the bench.

"Hey Danielle." Leo said trying to be as cool as he can.

"Do you know how much a polar bear weights?" Leo asked. Danielle shook her head.

"Enough to break the ice." Leo finished his joke.

"I'm Leo." Leo began.

"Didn't you send me 87 emails?" Danielle wondered.

"Yep! That was a slow day!" Leo faked a smiled.

"See you later Lenny!" Danielle said as she went away.

"It's Leo by the way." Leo said but waved at her moving silhouette.

Leo returned to Adam, Chase and Sakura.

"What else should I write on my notebook, other than 'Denied'?" Chase smirked.

"Oh! You can copy of me. I have 'She's not going to the dance with Lenny!'" Adam said as Chase nodded..

"Hi Bree!" Sakura waved at Bree who came over.

"Hi Kura!" Bree smiled weakly.

"What up with you?" Sakura asked.

"Are you guys talking about the stupid dance too? Why is EVERYONE talking about the stupid dance!" Bree complained.

"No one's ask you yet have they?" Chase asked with a smirk.

"Nope!" Sakura shook her head.

"No! I really wanna go with that guy!" Bree said as everyone looked at a boy talking.

"His name's Ethan. We sit next to each other in Chemistry, coincidence I think not 'Chemistry'…" Bree whispered.

"Potions?" Sakura asked as Chase and Bree nearly fainted by their Harry Potter addict friend.

"I got this!" Chase said as he shoved a piece of hair over his ear to listen to Ethan's conversation with a friend.

"He says there's a girl he thinks is cute." Chase said.

"Yeah Bree is cute and I really like her. But I don't know how to ask her out you know?" Ethan said.

"Ew! He's talking about YOU!" Chase gagged. Sakura sprayed a mouthful of water to Adam.

"Hey! I just dropped pudding on my shirt!" Adam exclaimed.

"Sorry AD!" Sakura apologized as she bends the water out of Adam's shirt.

"What? Really? Now? Why? Really?!" Bree panicked and asked.

Ethan walked over to the rest and towards Bree.

"Hey Bree, how's it going?" Ethan asked.

"Hi Ethan!" Bree almost shouted and stuttered.

"What is that over there?" Bree distracted Ethan as she ran away.

"Where is Bree?" Ethan asked.

"Uh…" Adam, Chase, Leo and Sakura shared a look.

"More importantly, what is that over there?" Adam distracted Ethan as they ran away.


Much later, Adam, Leo and Sakura were at the Lab. Adam and Leo were playing robots, and Adam obviously won Leo. Sakura was practicing guitar and humming.

"Adam, you won." Leo pointed out.

"Oh! Yippee! Sakura, did you see that?" Adam turned to the cat girl.

"Yea, nice game." Sakura smiled.

"What are you doing 'Kura?" Leo turned to Sakura.

"Principal Perry assigned me for playing music for the dance. Maybe as a payback for us humiliating Trent or she's tryin' to save cost for hiring the DJ!" Sakura stopped playing the guitar.

"Yeah! I remember! Last year, she hired DJ Wacka Macha!" Leo added recalling an insane DJ that their fellow headmistress hired last year.

"Nice. What songs are you playing?" Adam asked as he leaned towards her.

Sakura hid her notebook filled with music lyrics and the key notes of playing them.

"Oh, it's a surprise." Sakura faked a smile as she tugged her ocean blue cap.

"So…I was kind of wondering if you'd like to…" Adam was about to ask Sakura to the Dance.

Just then, Chase came inside the Lab.

"Guys! Guys! I finally figured it out!" Chase exclaimed.

"Yeap! Do NOT eat the outside of a pineapple! Whew! That will come back and hunt you!" Adam said as he shuddered.

"No! I figured out what type of guys Danielle likes!" Chase replied.

"Oh! Great! For a second there I thought you're gonna say you're gonna cross-dress at the Dance!" Sakura said as she scribbled something on her notebook. Leo and Adam snickered at Sakura's comment.

"No I'm not! Anyway, I recorded what she said just now." Chase said as he attached his finger onto the Lab Table.

"In the movie, the Hero punched the bad guy in the face and saved the baby from the alligator's mouth! I would SO go out with a guy like that!"

"Great! I'll go get the baby and Chase you go round up the alligator!" Adam exclaimed.

"You don't have to get a baby. You can do that when I babysit my cousin Naomi." Sakura said sarcastically.

"Not that! She wants a hero! We just need to make Leo look heroic!" Chase pointed out.

"That's fascinating. What else shall we do today?" Leo said as he faked a smile.

"I wish you could borrow my Super Strength!" Adam mumbled.

"You can't do that!" Sakura exclaimed.

"Yeah! It's all you got!" Leo added. Sakura and Leo fist bumped.

"Wait. Adam is on to something! Which is quite an achievement for one who can't eat a pineapple correctly." Chase said as he thought of something.

"I passed it down didn't I?" Adam exclaimed.


The very next day, Adam, Sakura, Chase and Leo went to school early.

Adam lied on the floor with a row of lockers on top of him. Sakura and Chase were looking out for Danielle. While Leo was beside Adam, waiting for the signal.

A few boys saw Adam and went to save him but were ushered away by Sakura.

"Here comes Danielle! Commence Operation 'Lady for Leo'!" Chase signaled as Danielle and a friend came into the corridors.

"Oh no! This man is trapped! It looks like he needs a hero to save him!" Leo said.

"Holy Raava! Leo is TERRIBLE at acting!" Sakura frowned. She wasn't gonna have high hopes for an Acting Career for Leo.

"Oh no! save me before the alligator comes!" Adam said. His faked a cry for help was worse than Leo's!

Leo stomped onto the lockers as Adam kept quiet.

"I will lift these heavy lockers! One! Two! Three!" Leo exclaimed as he pretended to lift the lockers, by which Adam was pushing up the lockers. But to most, it looked as if Leo was doing all the hard work.

"Oh my goodness! I can't believe that just happened!" Danielle gasped as she went to Leo and Adam.

"You know, it takes a big man to-" Leo began.

But Danielle went to Adam instead.

"You must be so strong! How did you survive under those lockers? Do you want me to walk you to the Nurses' Office?" Danielle asked Adam.

WAIT WHAT?! Leo, Chase and Sakura were shocked.

"He's not the strong one! I'm the strong one!" Leo exclaimed.

"No thanks. I'm fine." Adam assured Danielle.

"Good, because the Dance is on Saturday and I love to dance! Maybe we can hang out!" Danielle said.

"Oh! That'd be awesome!" Adam agreed.

"See you then~" Danielle winked at Adam as she left.


Much later…

"I can't believe it! You stole my woman! Back where I come from, we call it a love crime!" Leo yelled.

"Look, I'm keeping my options open, Okay? A girl is interested in me for the first time, and I think it's kind of nice." Adam spoke.

"Ew! 'It's kinda nice' !" Leo mocked Adam before he attacked him.

"Enough! Watching you fight like that is like a Chihuahua fighting a horse!" Chase said.

"Or a turtle-duck fighting a Komodo Rhino!" Sakura added.

"I'd so smack him senseless with a guitar! Wait…why would I hit Adam, he's a good buddy! Neh! Maybe I just wanna help out Leo…" Sakura thought to herself

"Yeah Adam. It's not fair. Leo wanted her first!" Chase reasoned Adam.

"Hey. All's fair is love and fake locker accidents!" Adam pointed out.

"Adam, you cannot go to the dance with Danielle. Leo wanted her first." Chase said.

"Too late. The damage is done. I'll never love her again." Leo said coldly.

"Look! I'll talk to Danielle. I'll convince her that Adam is not an option and she should be with Leo!" Chase suggested.

"Nice one Chase!" Sakura said as she played her guitar.

"Yeah, go to the dance with her. But then everyone's gonna think you're dating your babysitter!" Adam said as Leo pounce onto Adam.

"Uh Chase, should we clear this one out?" Sakura asked Chase.

"Nope. I'll just to the school to find Danielle!" Chase blinked but turned away.

"And I'll be practicing singing in the music room." Sakura replied as she and Chase walked away.


Later, at school…

Sakura was on her way to the canteen after practicing her singing when she saw Bree.

"Hey Bree." Sakura waved over.

"Hi Sakura. I think I freaked Ethan out!" Bree spoke.

"You think? You left skin marks on the hallway!" Sakura exclaimed.

"I think I have to ask Ethan to the dance. That might make it up to him." Bree sighed.

"Well, here's your chance, he's at his locker!" Sakura pointed over to Ethan.

Bree walked up to Ethan to ask him to the dance.

"Uh…Ethan? Can I talk to you?" Bree asked.

"Sure, what is it? Better make it quick, I've got History lessons later." Ethan said as he turned and only to find Bree on top of the lockers.

"Bree? What are you doing up there?" Ethan asked.

"Oh…um…just helping out the Janitor. This place is dusty!" Bree lied.


Meantime…

Danielle and a friend of hers were gossiping.

"Hi Danielle, sorry to barge in on your Gossip Session. Which you may or may not been having." Chase said as the girls were impressed.

"Look, remember that one who was involved in the Locker accident the other day?" Chase began.

"You meant the tall, good-looking one?" Danielle was interested as she twirled her honey blonde hair.

"No, I meant the smaller, more interesting looking one." Chase described.

"Oh! My sturdy little foot stool!" Danielle remembered.

"Bingo!" Chase nodded.

"I know that you're going to the Dance with my brother, Adam. But that is ruining his friendship with Leo. So I was hoping you'd go to dance with Leo instead of Adam." Chase tried to reason Danielle.

"Aw~ That's so sweet! You're worried about your friends~ You know what, I already have the solution." Danielle squealed.

"See, I knew once I talked to you it will all work out just fine." Chase sighed in relief.

"It is, I'm going to go to the dance with you." Danielle decided.

"See you later, cutie!" Danielle winked as she left.

At that moment, Adam and Leo walked in.

"Guys! Look, Danielle is not going to the dance with neither of you." Chase began.

"What? Who is she going with?" Adam asked.

"ME!" Chase exclaimed happily.

"GAHHH!" Leo pounced onto Chase.


Much later, at the Davenport Mansion…

"I can't believe you're going to the dance with Danielle! What happened to 'Leo wanted her first'?!" Adam demanded.

"Look, she asked ME. She's like a cotton white lamb in a sunny…" Chase said dreamily.

"WE GET IT!" Adam and Leo yelled.

"Adam, admit it. Chase won. The best man won." Leo said.

"No, I'm the best man! And I'm gonna win her over at the Dance!" Adam yelled as he went out.

[A/N: I'm skipping how Leo and Chase danced the 'Refrigerator Dance' and focus on Sakura and Adam]

(Sakura's P.O.V)

I was watching High School Musical 3. Ah~ Peace and quie-

~DING DONG~

NEVERMIND!

I rushed up to the door and saw Adam outside.

"Hey AD." I faked a smile.

"Hi Kura." Adam smiled.

So Adam told me that Danielle choose Chase over him and Leo. Now he is trying to win Danielle back at the dance. Problem is: HE DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO WALTZ WITH A GIRL!

Holy Raava. I will NEVER understand love!

"What are you watching?" Adam asked as he sat on the couch.

"High School Musical 3. Ooh! Here's my favorite song!" I squealed.

"Take my hand, take a breath. Pull me close, and take one step. Keep your eyes, locked to mine, and let the music be your guide~" Vanessa Ann Hudgen's voice came booming out of the speakers loud and clearly. She has one of the most amazing voice ever!

Well…I am kind of okay at dancing so I volunteered to teach him dancing the Waltz.

"Okay, put one of your hand on my waist. And the other to hold my hand." I said as he did what he was told.

Wow! He is good at dancing…

"And with every step together, we just keep on getting better. So can I have this [can I have this dance?] Can I have this dance~"

By the time the song ended, I looked over to the clock and realized that it is 5 p.m. It's time to feed my 'family' and by family, I meant pets. [I have like 30 of them, DON'T JUDGE ME!]

"Well, um…thanks for practicing dancing with me." Adam said as he runs his fingers through his hair.

As soon as Adam went out, my mom, Aunt Tasha and Bree came in.

"Hi Kura!" Bree waved.

"Hi." I waved as I fed my pet Furball some fruits.

"Sweetie, let me handle this okay. Oh! There are 2 parcels in your room." My mom said as she fed the pets.

"Yeah, you girls have your 'girl-bonding time'." Tasha ushered Bree and I away.

I took Bree to my room. I found two parcels on my bed. That's odd!


To Sakura the tomboy we know,

Here's for your big dance at school! Hope you'll like it!

Your friends,

-Mazlee, Azlin, Amirah, Anusha, Hani and Luna


"Who's it from?" Bree asked as she peered over.

"Oh. My buddies." I smiled. Mazlee is the sissy Gossip King, Azlin and Amirah are the prettiest girls in school, Anusha is the friendliest Indian you'd meet, and Hani and Luna, the twin cousins.

"It's cute! I'm sure Adam will like what you're wearing~" Bree teased.

"Nope. He, Leo and Chase are fighting for Danielle." I shook my head.

"Oh." Bree gasped.

"Anyway, what about you and Ethan?" I teased as she blushed.

"I tried asking him. But every time I see him I just want to slap myself before I see him, I become a…" Bree said.

"A dork monster?" My mom and Aunt Tasha came inside.

"MAJOR dork monster!" Bree exclaimed.

"Bree, you're not the first one who gets nervous around a boy she likes." Tasha said.

"Yes, when I was your age, I keep getting nervous around Harushi. I practically hide myself whenever I see him when I was younger!" My mom said.

"I flew across the room and jumped on the top of the lockers." Bree said.

"That's a first!" My mom and Tasha nodded.

Anyway, my mom and Tasha picked out a blue dress for Bree. Tasha advised Bree to wear high heels.


Saturday/The Dance

Adam walked into the Dance Hall and saw Chase and Leo.

"Hey Chase. Did Danielle dumped you already?" Adam joked.

"No, she's at the washroom." Chase said.

"Yeah, she's probably crawling out of the windows!" Adam joked. Leo snickered.

At that moment, Bree walked in the Dance Hall.

Bree was wearing a blue dress with matching heels.

"If you're planning to dance with those heels, may I suggest you wear a helmet!" Leo exclaimed.

"Haha!" Bree faked a laugh as she glared at Leo.

"Where is Sakura?" Adam asked.

"In the changing room. She's wearing something a friend of hers gave her. Oh and Adam, why didn't you ask Kura to the dance? Since it's so obvious that you liked her." Bree teased as Adam denied.

"Look, I only have a crush on her. But Danielle is my true love." Adam said.

"Oh! There's Ethan! Wish me luck!" Bree gasped as she half struggle her footwear to Ethan.

"Hi Ethan, do you want to dance?" Bree asked nervously as she glitched out a few times.

"Sure. You just move to the music." Ethan waltz with Bree but was unfortunately trapped in a dance cyclone.

Danielle came in and Chase humiliated himself with Leo's signature 'Refrigerator Dance'.

Adam tossed Danielle up to the ceiling and ended up ditching him.

Leo managed to impress her and everyone with his 'Aunt Janice and her Book Club' dancers.

"The dance is over now?" Danielle was a bit grossed out by Leo.

"Oh Sorry! You smelt so good I kind of passed out." Leo smiled.

"What is wrong with your friends?" Danielle turned over and saw Chase and Adam. Adam hogged all the food.

"Don't tell me it's their first dance!" Danielle said.

"Actually, it is." Leo said.

"Ah! Homeschooled huh?" Danielle guessed.

"You have no idea." Leo said.

Leo went to apologized with Chase and Adam and things were cleared up.

"Okay, next song will be sung by Sakura Snowflower." The DJ said as Sakura walked up the stage.

"Okay Sakura, you can do this…No one would know the difference…" Sakura thought as she sighed.

Adam's jaw mentally dropped when he saw Sakura.

Her jet black hair let down, showing her auburn-orange cat ears. She wore a white dress that is sleeveless, with an attached light powder pink short sleeved jacket with a magenta ribbon in the middle. She had a matching pink waist ribbon. She had her guitar and a nervous smile on her face.

Wow! I never knew Sakura can be so…beautifulAdam's face flushed into crimson red as drooled.

"Okay, this song is dedicated to everyone in Mission Creek High School!" [If you can guess this song I'll give you a cookie. *HINT: From an Anime Manga*]

Kiss kiss fall in love,

Hey! Hey! Hey!

I see you come,

I watched you go,

You never seemed to leave me though!

So is this love,

Or hate?

We'll see, you're making me crazy!

In time I dream, you're all I see.

Well, all I see is you and me.

Lady, maybe, or host,

But I really don't mind!

If I have to choose a rose,

In this Garden of Romance,

Maybe we could take this chance,

Maybe you're my love!

And I would like to find,

A hand in yours that take mine,

And with one kiss,

We could stop time and I'd fall in love with you.

Tomorrow's far away,

Let's place our hope in today,

Just you and me,

In a beautiful spring,

And we'll always fall in love again!

Hey! Hey!

Maybe you're my love!

Sakura finished her song as everyone clapped.

"Wow, Sakura, who knew you can sing so well!" Leo exclaimed.

"Wow, who knew you were a girl?" Chase said sarcastically.

"Very funny!" Sakura joked as she hit the two guys.

"Sakura." Adam called out.

"Yes?" Sakura looked up to see Adam.

"May…May I have this dance?" Adam asked as he gestured a hand.

"Sure." Sakura smiled.

What's it gonna take for us to get a cute date?! Leo and Chase complaint.

"See, this is why cross-dressing comes in handy! All I need now is a wig, make-up, and a dress! And SHEH-BAM! Chasity is born!" Sakura joked.

"What's a 'Chasity'?" Chase asked.

"A female name for Chase." Leo and Sakura laughed.

"Oh ha-ha!" Chase frowned.

"Okay I'm sorry." Sakura apologized.

"How about I take turns dancing with you guys? As friends, okay?" Sakura make it up to them as the three guys nodded.


After the dance…

"So uh…Sakura. Thanks for teaching me how to dance." Adam thanked her as he walked her around the school floors. [Leo was talking to Chase about a girl (*cough* Janelle *cough*) he met when he 'accidentally' went to the Ladies' Room. Bree and Ethan were still slow-dancing.

"You're welcome." Sakura turned to the Tall Bionic.

Suddenly it started raining

"Oh come on!" Adam exclaimed.

"Awesome!" Sakura grinned as she placed her guitar on the floor and ran outside into the pouring rain.

"There's something about the way, the floor looks when it just rained, there's a glow on the pavement. You walk me around school, and you know I wanna ask you to dance right there. In the middle of the open compound yeah!"

Sakura sang as she danced around the open area exposed to rain. Luckily, she can create a water shield to protect herself from the rain.

Adam joined along too and danced under the rain. A few popular girls scoffed at how Popular Sakura had become within the minutes.

Soon after, some couples joined in for Dancing under the Rain.

"Thanks Adam." Sakura hugged Adam tightly.

"For what?" Adam tried not to blush too hard but his face was as red as a tomato.

"Everything, my best friend." Sakura smiled as she kissed him on the cheek.

"Ooh~~Adam's got a crush!" Chase teased. Leo made kissy noises.

"Shut it Chase!" Adam blushed.

"Em…Bree, what are they talking about?" Sakura whispered.

"You wouldn't understand even if I told you." Bree shook her head.

The next day, the entire school caught flu and was suspended for the rest of the week.
