Chapter four- School

By Aneko-chan

It was morning, and it was time for school. Everyone was at the dining table, except for one person…

“HOOOOEEEEEEEEEEEE! I’M LATE!” A voice yelled out from upstairs. Everybody turned to see Sakura running down the stairs, dressed in her school uniform and quickly ran to the dining table and grabbed a piece of toast. And before she leaves the table, she glares at Syaoran and then gave a kiss on the cheek to her father and puts on her roller blades. She opens the door.

“Otou-san! I’M GOING TO SCHOOL!” She yells and quickly leaves the house. Fujitaka smiles and frowns when he sees Syaoran still eating.

“Syaoran, why are you not going to school yet?” He asks him. Yelan frowns at her son.

“I’m the new kid. I can go there a little late and introduce myself.” He said, eating more toast.

“Xiao Lang. Go to school now.” Yelan said emotionless making Syaoran get up from his seat and got his backpack and putted his shoes on and he quickly opened the door.

“I’m going to school now. See ya after school!” He yelled, slamming the door behind him. When he was walking to school, a lot of girls stared at him and started giggling and pointing at him. Syaoran sighed. Why does this happen to him? He was so annoyed by having a tomboy as a fiancee and now girls start pointing and giggling at him. He sighed and gave them all a cold glare. The girls now saw that and some started crying and some quickly ran away from the cold glare. He sighed. Then a redhead came up to him. He rolled his eyes.

“Hey there hottie. The name’s Yumiko. Wanna go out sometime?” She said seductively. He gave her a glare.

“No. I have no interest in you so go away.” He said in a cold tone. She took a step back. She smiled seductively.

“Fine but just to let you know, you’ll be mine soon.” She said and gave him an imaginary kiss and walked away, moving those hips of hers. Syaoran gave her a disgusting look. How come there are these kind of dumb, and ugly kind of girls here in Tomoeda? He sighed again and walked to Tomoeda high. This is what shocked him. Tomoeda is full of girls.

Uh oh…why me? WHY! Syaoran thought, slapping his forehead.

“Hey…are you okay?” A familiar voice asked him. Syaoran looked up to meet Sakura, staring at him weirdly. He glared at her and walked past her.

“Yes I’m fine.” He growled, making Sakura glare at him.

“Sheesh…why do you have to be grumpy all the time?” She asked him. When they got to the front of Tomoeda high’s front doors, Syaoran turned to Sakura.

“Why do you have to dress like a tomboy all the time?” He asked, making Sakura wince.

“Hey…I’m just trying to be nice ya know!” She said, pissed. “You don’t have to call me that all the time…” She said silently. Unfortunately Syaoran heard her.

“Then what should I call you? Beautiful? Honey? Darling? Sakura? Ha! Like I would!” Syaoran said as he walked past her, grumbling about idiotic girls around the whole school. Sakura thought a moment.

“Well, I think calling me Sakura is okay! If only I get to call you Syaoran!” She said, following him to the front desk.

“Fine fine. Since it’s only because you’re engaged to me…” He said, as he got his schedule from the person and looked at it. Then he looked at Sakura.

“Hey…what do you have first period?” He asked her.

“English. Why?” She said. Syaoran shrugged his shoulders.

“I have English too. Looks like we’re in the same class.” He said and went upstairs to English class. Sakura followed him. When they went upstairs and into their English classroom, everyone stared at them. Syaoran saw a girl with purple hair and ameyste eyes wave at Sakura and Sakura went to sit next to her. The teacher, Terada-sensei looked at Syaoran and smiled. He nodded.

“Mr. Li! We’ve been expecting you. Please introduce yourself.” He said and Syaoran came up and bowed to the class. The girls started sighing and blushing and the guys glared at Syaoran. Sakura and her friend with the purple hair rolled their eyes.

“Hi. My name is Li Syaoran. I came here from Hong Kong. Pleased to meet you.” He said. Terada-sensei nodded.

“Alright then Mr. Li, let’s see where you can sit.” He scanned the room until he sees a empty desk right next to Sakura. Sakura noticed and her eyes turned wide.

OH NO! NOT THE SEAT NEXT TO ME! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Sakura’s mind screamed when Terada-sensei looked at the empty desk and then at Sakura.

“Okay. Li, sit next to Kinomoto. Kinomoto, raise your hand.” Terada-sensei said but was interrupted by Syaoran.

“No need. I know who Kinomoto is.” Syaoran said and started walking towards Sakura. Sakura groaned. The girls glared at Sakura and the guys glared at Syaoran. Syaoran gave Sakura a ‘Great. Now I’ve to sit next to you too!’ Sakura glared at him. She gave him a ‘So what? Now I have to sit next to you too!’ Then they both glared at each other, giving each other daggers. Everyone noticed this and started feeling fear that those two are like enemies or rivals.

“Hmph!” Sakura turned her head away from him. Syaoran snorted and walked past her to his new seat. Then someone came into the classroom with a note in his hands. He gave it to the teacher and then left the room. Everyone stared at the note in Terada-sensei’s hands, especially Sakura and Syaoran. Terada-sensei read the letter and afterwards, looked shocked and looked at Sakura and Syaoran. They both gulped.

It better not be anything so embarrassing… Sakura thought, sweat coming out of her forehead.

It better not be anything about the engagement… Syaoran thought, a lot of sweat coming out of his forehead. Then Terada-sensei stood up from his desk.

“Ahem. Class there’s something I need to let you know, and everyone who has a crush on Kinomoto or either Li.” He started, making everyone stare at him.

“Just to let you know, Li’s mother informed me to tell you. She doesn’t want any girls going after her son, which is Li and Kinomoto’s father doesn’t want anyone to go after his daughter, which is Kinomoto…” He continued, making Sakura and Syaoran glare at him. Terada-sensei started sweating.

“And Li’s mother and Kinomoto’s father wants us all to know that Li and Kinomoto are ENGAGED, so no one could go after Li and Kinomoto, because the parents said that the engagement will never be off and never will.” He finished, making everybody too shocked to say anything. The girls started crying and some glared at Sakura. The guys were shocked and glared at Syaoran. Some had veins on their heads. Sakura and Syaoran went off too, of course. They bammed their desk at the same time and stood up.

“WHAT THE HELL! THE FREAKING ENGAGEMENT CAN’T BE OFF!” They both yelled at the same time. Sakura and Syaoran stomped all the way to Terada-sensei, PISSED badly and Terada-sensei was whimpering, afraid for his life.

“GIMME THAT!” Sakura yelled and snatched it from the sensei’s hands. Sakura and Syaoran read the letter and their eyes widened at the same time.

“T-This letter i-is…” Sakura started, stammering.

“R-real…” Syaoran finished for her, recognizing the handwriting of their parents. Then they both couldn’t control it anymore.

“HOW COULD THEY DO THIS TO ME!” They both yelled out, making the whole class terrified of them. Sakura was trying to calm herself down and went slowly back to her seat. The purple haired girl started comforting her and squealing about Sakura being engaged. Syaoran said nothing and sat back down in his seat. No one said anything for the whole period. Then it was lunch time.

“SAKURA-CHAN! YOU NEVER TOLD ME YOU WERE ENGAGED TO LI!” The purple haired beauty squealed, jumping up and down. Sakura sighed.

“Tomoyo-chan, if I told you that, you would’ve been squealing all day long never stopping. That’s why I didn’t tell you.” Sakura said, leaning on the lunch table. The girl called Tomoyo stopped.

“Oh. But Sakura-chan, you must admit, he is cute and hot.” She said. Sakura rolled her eyes.

“Yeah right Tomoyo-chan, he’s a guy with no manners towards girls, he’s grumpy, he’s an idiotic jerk…and…” Sakura said but a voice stopped her.

“Oh? An idiotic jerk? And what? Please continue what you were going to say.” The familiar voice asked Sakura, making Sakura turn around and glare at him.

“I was saying that you’re an idiotic jerk AND a stupid, no mannered, and insensitive bastard.” Sakura finished, making Syaoran smirk.

“Oh yeah? I thought that was you.” He said, making Sakura glare at him. Sakura was about to say something when Tomoyo interrupted.

“Excuse me. Your Li Syaoran right? I’m Daidouji Tomoyo. Sakura’s cousin. Pleased to meet you.” Tomoyo said, smiling. Syaoran nodded.

“So your that ugly tomboy’s cousin? I never expected that you would be much prettier than her.” He said, while Tomoyo was shocked and Sakura was fuming.

“WHAT DID YOU CALL ME AGAIN!” Sakura yelled while she threw her lunch tray at him and he quickly dodged the food and the tray at the same time. Sakura cursed at herself for forgetting he was a martial artist and was a good one at that.

“Ha! Missed me!” He said, smirking. Sakura cursed him silently and sat back at the lunch table. Then a certain redhead came by next to Syaoran.

“Hey Syao-kun. I heard about your awful engagement with Kinomoto.” Yumiko said seductively making Sakura roll her eyes and making Syaoran glared with no emotions at Yumiko. Yumiko smiled and touched Syaoran in the arm. Sakura stared shocked and Syaoran winced and moved away from her.

“Hey slut. What are you doing to him?” Sakura said, glaring at Yumiko. Yumiko smiled at her.

“I’m touching him. I’m going to make your fiancee MY boyfriend sooner or later. I know he’ll fall for me. You’ll see.” She said, making Sakura glare at her harder. Tomoyo glared also at Yumiko.

“Haven’t they tell you that the engagement is never going to be off?” She said, icily. Yumiko looked at her.

“Yes I have. But maybe I could change that…” Yumiko said as she gave Syaoran a imaginary kiss and left. Sakura, Tomoyo, and Syaoran looked at her disgustingly.

What does she mean by changing the engagement? All three thought, confused.
