Life Without You
Sakura Kinomoto opened her eyes. She immediately found a pair of beady eyes staring her in the face. She screamed, jumped up from under the covers and knocked the small, yellow creature to the floor. The creature sat up and rubbed the large lump that was forming on his head. The creature looked like a small stuffed bear with large ears and small angel wings.
"Sorry Kero," Sakura apologized. "I've just never been able to get used to you waking me up in the morning." Sakura hopped off her bed and sighed. A small grin formed on her face. She walked over to her desk and opened the top drawer. She pulled out the pink book and removed the cards from under the cover.
"One question Sakura. Why is it so important that you wake up early today?" Kero landed on her desk, one hand still rubbing the large lump.
"Arigato for waking me up by the way, " Sakura mentioned quickly. "Um, I only wanted to talk to Tomoyo about something."
"What could be so urgent that you need to talk to your best friend for?" Kero asked confusingly. "Just remember to bring me back something later. Something sweet..." Drool began to drip from Kero's wide-open trap. Sakura giggled at the sight.
"Syaoran is coming for a visit," Sakura giggled as she changed into her school uniform. She fixed her auburn hair up into her normal hairstyle. "He won't arrive until later tonight. I'm so excited!"
Sakura couldn't stop smiling. It was barely over a year since Sakura finally admitted her love for Syaoran. After the Void card had been sealed, Syaoran returned to Hong Kong. This was his first visit since that incident. Sakura shoved the cards in her bag and ran out of her room.
"Ohayo Touya," Sakura greeted her brother enthusiastically, which was rare, extremely rare. "Ohayo mother!" Sakura glanced at the picture of her unfortunately deceased mother. Sakura took a seat at the kitchen table. "Ohayo father," Sakura turned her head towards the man in the apron behind the counter.
"Hey kaijuu," Touya automatically knew something was up when Sakura ignored his name-calling. "Why are you so happy this morning?"
"It's none of your business!" Sakura snapped. The grin never left her face even when she yelled at her brother.
"It must be something good if you're smiling stupidly like that." Touya searched his sister's emerald eyes for an answer. "Care to share why?"
Fujitaka walked over carrying breakfast. He told Touya to stop interrogating Sakura. However, Fujitaka was also curious about Sakura's exuberant behaviour. Fujitaka sat down and the three commenced breakfast.
"Sakura, why are you so excited?" Fujitaka questioned his daughter. Sakura nearly spat out her food when she heard the question. Touya laughed at his choking sister. Sakura finally swallowed.
"Well, um, its because today is such a beautiful day!" Sakura answered quickly before letting out a small hiccup and shoveling more food in her mouth.
"Right." Touya glared at his sister with the I-know-you-are-hiding- something-from-me look. Sakura sighed and decided to tell her family.
"Syaoran is coming to visit." Sakura mumbled quietly.
"THAT CHINESE GAKI!" Touya managed to say before falling backwards on his chair. Sakura could tell her brother was filled with rage when he quickly picked up his chair off the ground. "IF HE GETS WITHEN 100 METRES OF YOU SAKURA I'LL KILL HIM!"
"Shut up Touya! Syaoran is not a gaki!" Sakura shouted back at her brother. Touya was fuming; Sakura and Fujitaka could literally see the smoke coming from his ears.
"Maybe you should leave Sakura." Fujitaka whispered into her ear. "This could get very ugly."
"Hai, I will." Sakura grabbed what she could off her plate and headed towards the front door. She hastily put on her blades, taking a quick look at her enraged sibling. "See you later!" Sakura grabbed her bag.
"Sayonara Sakura!" Fujitaka waved to her as the door slammed.
"WHERE THE HELL DOES SHE THINK SHE'S GOING! THAT GAKI BETTER NOT TOUCH HER OR I'LL DECAPITATE HIM OR MUTILATE HIM." A mischievous grin formed on Touya's face. "OR I"LL DO BOTH TO HIM! HAHAHAHAHA!"
"Give it a rest Touya," Fujitaka sighed at his overreacting son.
Sakura skated gleefully down the route to school. Cherry blossoms floated by her auburn hair. She was so excited to finally see Syaoran again. The young adolescent spun around on her blades
"It has been too long." Sakura sighed to herself quietly. "I wonder what has been happening in his life this past year?"
End of 1st chapter. Tell me what you think! Criticism is welcome! ^_~ Next chapter should be up shortly since I already have the basic plot figured out.
