Sparks Fly - Taylor Swift
Sakura and Syaoran - Post-Cardcaptor Sakura
Sakura threw down the phone as soon as Tomoyo had said it. "He's back." She ran through the house, throwing on her rain coat, her untied hair getting caught as she jerked the hood over her head; and shoving on her rain boots as she rushed out of the door. She was vaguely aware of an annoyed Touya calling after her as she slammed the door, but she ignored him as she ran through the pelting rain towards his apartment, the dim streetlights guiding her along the way.
She hadn't seen him for weeks, his family in China was always calling him home, calling him away from her. Her boots filled up with water as she made her way through Tomoeda, splashing through puddles and gasping for breath as she filled with excitement.
No lights were on in the place where he lived, so she waited outside, barely sheltered from the heavy rain which blew around her, as if excited by her own emotions.
As the taxi pulled up in front of his house, Syaoran wondered where Sakura could be right now, whether she was safe and warm, or asleep and dreaming. Shielding himelf from the rain with his lightly packed bag he began the wet journey towards his door, his home, then he saw her, the soaked and shivering girl waiting for him to come home. He dropped his suitcase as he ran to her, thinking of nothing but holding her in his arms, protecting her from the rainstorm. Her head whipped around to see him coming and sparks seemed to fly from her hair as the light captured the droplets that flew from the auburn strands. Her green eyes lit up with unspeakable joy as they met his deep brown ones and relief flooded through them both.
Syaoran held her tightly as the rain fell around them, glad to see the smile which had been haunting his dreams since he had left Japan. His heart melted as she kissed him shyly, then stepped back, just within arms reach. He smiled with her as he reached around to unlock his door and usher her inside, to the warmth and comfort of home. They removed their soaked outer clothes, Sakura's hands brushing his neck as she took his coat, sending shivers down his spine. He brushed a damp strand of hair out of her eyes as she captured him with her bright green eyes again. The lights in the room lit her face up and made her shine under his gaze.
Sakura felt Staoran's intense eyes on her, following her every move, which made her blush, even when he held her and murmured that she was beautiful for the thousandth time. They wrapped themselves up in blankets and held each other, warming up with just a touch, safe from the rest of the world. Then together, they feel asleep on the couch and met each other in their dreams, surrounded by a thousand fireflies and dancing through their sparks, kissing in the sparkling shower.
