AN: I thought this was needed. Kero, Toya, and Syaoran don't get on that well..therefore, I thought they needed a bonding type of 'fic. Sort of a slow transition to getting along.
Inspired by my lovely friend Vampire Scooby and her "Bella and Emmett Bonding" Twilight 'fic. If you like Stephenie Meyers' work, check it out. If you haven't already, her stuff seems pretty popular ;). It all started when we were four and playing T-ball on a rainy day. And it has brought us to…here, I suppose.
Also dedicated to Acacia Adams. Your kind words may just be what kept me going. I don't know you too well, nor have we been talkin' long, but the short time I've known you has been lovely.
Disclaimer: If you've read any of my other 'fics, you'd know of my epic struggle to get the rights from CLAMP. Sadly, I haven't gotten anywhere…yet.
Chapter 1-a Quick But Meaningful Exchange
Syaoran was at Sakura's house. Sakura was sick, and her fever was getting higher by the hour.
" Syaoran-kun.." she managed to cough," T-thank you…D-domo arigato…for sitting with me."
" No problem Sakura," he said, nodding, sitting at her bedside.
" You..you….you know you…" she stuttered, coughing between each word," know you don't have to…stick around…you'll…get…sick..too.."
" No, no, it's fine.." he assured her.
" No," she coughed," I don't want you sick..go home…please..for..me.."
"but.." he protested," Fine…"
" Good…please..take..Kero..he'll..get.sick.." Sakura muttered.
" I can get ill, but Sakura!" Kero protested.
" Please.." she moaned.
Kero and Syaoran sighed and both replied in unison," Fine."
Syaoran walked down the stairs, with Kero floating above him. He heard Toya in the kitchen and froze.
"Kero, hide!" he whispered.
Toya walked over, right after Kero hid effectively.
" What're you doing here, brat?" he angrily asked.
" I was visiting Sakura.." he said.
" why?" Toya snarled.
" Beucase I happen to like her.." he said.
" Well I happen to dislike you, and I don't want you anywhere near my sister," he said.
" I'll be near her if I want to," Syaoran snapped.
Toya sighed," You leaving then?"
" No," he said," unless you kick me out.."
" Which I will do," he informed him.
" But.." Syaoran muttered," I'm worried about Sakura…I don't want to leave her.."
" Don't worry, we don't want your worry..now go away!" Toya said.
" Fine.." he muttered, heading for the door," But you'd better take good care of her."
Toya nodded," Oh, I surely will."
AN: Short intro to what's to come. Next chapter-Kero and Syaoran's night together.
