Summary: On a windy, snowy day, Syaoran and Sakura sit bored in his apartment. So what do they do? Build snowmen, of course!
Syaoran and Sakura. The most sweetest couple in the petite town of Tomoeda, Japan. (as voted by Tomoyo, of course, after a series of 'kawaii's and various sizes of sweatdrops)
It didn't help that they were sitting, extremely bored, like 'a lump of coal', as Sakura often called it. Syaoran sighed, as his girlfriend/wife-to-be ranted on and on how important it was to be actually doing something, and not sitting endlessly in boredom at home during this beautiful time of year, Christmas!
To be honest, Syaoran just didn't care.
Unfortunately, Sakura always got her way.
So here he was, sitting innocently and helplessly 'like a lump of coal' on his comfy, warm couch, just about to fall into a deep, much needed sleep, until, all of the sudden--poof!--he was blinking rapidly, butt buried deep in the two-foot snow, with a layer of white powder sitting on his head.
Not how he planned to spend the day.
"Oh, Syao-kun!" Sakura giggled. "What a great idea!"
He could only scowl furiously at her.
"We could build snow forts! Wouldn't that be absolutely fun and divine?"
Her poor boyfriend/husband-to-be could only sweatdrop, and wonder why in all worlds did he choose to be with her at his house during this moment. (And not to mention, why did he actually not do anything about it!)
Sigh.
Oh yes. That was right. He loved her.
"C'mon Syaoran-kun! We could have so much fun doing this, just like romantic couples are supposed to during winter!" The auburn-haired, emerald-eyed onnanoko clapped her hands in sheer glee.
Heh heh. Syaoran managed to fraud a weak smile, gave up, and grunted. Why couldn't Sakura just leave him alone?

Five minutes later…
Found Syaoran reluctantly, against his own will, rolling a small ball of cold icicles. Damn Sakura and her cardcaptor magic…was echoing inside his brain every second of this hell he had to go through. Did he neglect to mention he hated snow!
"Syaoran!" Sakura whined. "Please do this? For me?"
Of course, Syaoran found her accomplished puppy dog eyes irresistible, and complied. And wound up rolling the ball faster and faster.
Eyes widened.
A squeal.
Uh-oh…
"Syaoran! Snowmen! So that's why you didn't want to build the fort with me…!" Sakura laughed in glee.
"I hate you," the grumpy boy said.
"Love you too," Sakura smiled. "Let's get going, then!"
And so that's how the poor boy got wound up into doing his least favorite activity. Using snow to build men!
Twelve years ago…
"Syao-kun! It's snowing!" Feimei cried.
Four-year-old Syaoran raced out of the house, leaving his sister in the dust, blinking.
"Snow! Snow!" The little boy twirled around, and finally fell with a satisfactory 'thump' into the white powder.
Feimei caught up with her little brother, and said the five fatal words that would change his life—
"Want to build a snowman, Syaoran?" cried her eager face.
Syaoran felt himself nod aggressively.
"Okay!" his sister cried, and started forming a ball with her hands.
Quickly using her martial arts skills, in the blink of an eye, she had made the small ball into a big ball.
Syaoran, ever the copycat, made one too.
Only, he did one thing wrong.
Because of his small size, the unexpected, albeit inevitable, happened.
He tripped—lost his balance—and got rolled into the ball…
Sakura slapped him across the face gently, repeatedly.
"Syao-kun! Calling you back to earth!"
sigh Only one way…
She pressed her lips to his, and immediately, his eyelids fluttered open.
Pulling back satisfactorily, Sakura smiled. "Let's keep on going!"
So Syaoran started to roll—again.
And history, as well know, repeats.
He should've known he shouldn't have worked so fast.
He should've known Sakura had planned something.
And once again, he found himself trapped in snow, rolling rapidly down the hill and straight into a tree.
He sighed.
Not again.
