Disclaimer: I don't own Card Captor Sakura.

Summary: It's Valentine's Day, and the last thing Syaoran Li expects is a Valentine's Day gift and letter from his arch rival Sakura Kinomoto! He takes it for real, while she still doesn't know the wrong guy's received it... SS

Author's Note: Hello this story idea just suddenly popped up in my mind and thus I had the urge to write it down. Hopefully it'll meet your standards in some way. Please read and review! Thank you!

"So how long more are you going to just stand there and admire him from afar?"

I jumped in surprise. Turning back, I saw a giggling Tomoyo.

I heaved a huge sigh of relief.

"Gosh, don't just scare me like that, Tomoyo," I said, leaning back against the wall. "My heart was ready to pop out of my mouth just now!"

"Sakura, I cleared my throat three times, but you were too engrossed in gazing at your Prince Charming to notice me!"

"I-I wasn't!"

Tomoyo giggled again. I blushed.

"So, when are you going to give him those?" she asked, pointing to the box of chocolate and letter I was holding. "School's already over and here you are, still hesitating."

I shrugged my shoulders. "I don't know... what if he laughs at me, or worse, avoids me?"

"So what, you're just going to bring them back home and never let Yukito know how you feel about him?" Tomoyo asked. "It's his last year here, Sakura. You're going to regret it if you continue to remain passive this Valentine's Day."

I felt my heart thumping hardly against my chest. Deep down inside I badly wanted to give him my handmade chocolates and letter, but deeper down there was still this shroud of fear of rejection.

"Look, he's gone," Tomoyo said, snapping me out of my thoughts.

I hurriedly turned. "Whaaaaaat? I-I haven't even... oh never mind!"

Tomoyo placed an assuring hand on my shoulder. "If you're feeling shy, Sakura, just stuff it into his bag before soccer training is over. "


"Come on, captain! I swear I won't be late for practice again!"

"That's what you said two days ago, Li."

"That's because I didn't count on meeting a crazy ex!" argued Syaoran.

Yukito remained firm. "No more excuses. You're vice-captain and you still can't seem to set a good example for the team! I'm sorry but you'll have to stay back an hour-"

"But I have a date tonight!"

Yukito smiled. "At least your date won't give you extra training for turning up late."

Syaoran felt himself boil inside. What could a studious dude like Yukito know about girls and dates?

"And Li, go get the soccer balls from the sports room," Yukito ordered.

Syaoran glowered at him. "If you'll excuse me first, I have a bursting bladder to relieve."


"I feel kinda weird, sneaking around in the guys' changing room," Tomoyo whispered. "Sakura, can you quick find Yukito's bag already?"

Sakura was frantically digging through a pile of bags. "I'm trying! I'm trying!"

Just then, they heard voices in the distance.

"I think people are coming!" Tomoyo alerted.

Sakura grew more panicky. "Ok ok, I found it!"

With that, she hurriedly unzipped the bag, stuffed her Valentine's Day present inside and zipped it up.

"Ok let's hurry up and go!" Tomoyo exclaimed as she grabbed Sakura's hand, ready to flee.

Too late.

"What damn kind of a stiff captain is he?" they heard Syaoran's voice grumble, followed by footsteps.

"Just put up with it, dude. It's his last year here and then, you're captain!" Yamazaki answered.

"Yeah, but for now I gotta put up with his shit till he graduates a few months later!" Syaoran replied.

Then, he sighed and said, "And tonight, Mika's gonna give me shit for showing up late for our date. And it's all cos' of Yukito that anal jackass-"

"HEY!"

"Shhh!"

Syaoran and Yamazaki froze. A heavy silence followed.

"Who's there?" Syaoran shouted, finally breaking the silence.

There was a scuffle, followed by Sakura jumping up from amongst the pile of bags. Soon, Tomoyo reluctantly stood up.

Sakura glowered at Syaoran. "I won't hear you insulting-"

Syaoran cut her off with a condescending laugh. "I should have guessed it was you, Kinomoto. I mean, who else indulges in such a sick hobby?"

"Shut up, Li," Sakura retorted. "I-I was just trying to find my earring!"

Yamazaki burst out laughing. "HAHA SYAORAN, SHE'S WORSE AT GIVING EXCUSES THAN YOU!"

Syaoran and Sakura turned to glare at him.

"A-Anyway!" Tomoyo cut in, "Sakura and I have to go now! Bye!"

With that, she hurriedly pulled Sakura out of the room and the two dashed off.

"That pair of looneys," Syaoran muttered before walking over to the pile.

"What are you doing?" Yamazaki asked.

"Checking to see if they plant bombs in people's bags for fun," Syaoran replied as he pulled out his bag.

Yamazaki quickly scrambled to his too. After digging through his bag, he heaved a sigh of relief.

"Phew! Nothing unusual about my bag! What about yours, Syaoran? Hey, do you honestly think they came here cos' Sakura was finding her earring? It's quite stupid, right? But then why else would they be here? UNLESS THEY'RE PERVERTS! But no way, I've known them for so long, they aren't the kind! But then why did they come here? Hey, Syaoran, are you listening to me?"

Syaoran didn't respond. He only stared blankly at the letter in his hands, his thoughts and emotions whirling chaotically within his mind...
