Disclaimer: I don't own Wish-chan's New Trials or Card Captor Sakura. Clamp owns the latter, not me, unfortunately.
Author's note: Based on Wish-chan's New Trials. For those who don't know, it's one of the best fanfics ever, so read it... If you want to :P By the way, for those who don't know, Kai is super over-protective after not being with Miho for many years and usually shows his feelings by teasing. Aki is a rich boy, but he's not snobby, actually a pretty sweet boy. Miho is sweet and can have a streak like her brother sometimes to get what she wants. And Meilin, well, she's just like always ^.^ Hope you like it
The Stalking Date
Chapter 1
"Um, Miho-chan…"
"Yes Aki-kun?"
"How long do we have to pretend to be a couple? It's already been two weeks and your brother's stalking has not stopped. AT ALL," said Aki as they were walking towards Piffle-Café.
"Just until he stops stalking people. He needs to get over his sis-com," said Miho remembering why she had asked Aki to go on pretend dates with her.
-Flashback
"I'm leaving!" shouted Miho before opening the door of her house.
Thumps could be heard as Kai bounded down the stairs. "Wait a second!" he shouted before Miho could step out of the house.
"Yes, Onii-chan?" Miho asked.
"Where are you going?" Kai crossed his arms and his towering height over Miho gave him an air of authority and superiority.
"I'm going out with people from my class, we're going to the amusement park," she explained simply.
"Will there be any… boys?" Kai continued, his eyes giving a murderous glint at the last word.
"I think so, but they're all from my class and have girlfriends already. Don't worry, they won't try anything."
"Are you sure?"
"Positive."
A pause with a deafening silence filled the room as the two siblings stared each other down.
"You're not going," Kai said simply.
"WHAT!? Why not?"
"People lie Miho-chan."
"I know you do."
"People cheat!"
"You do that, not on Meilin-onee-chan though. I would kill you if you did, and so would Syaoran-kun."
"That's not the point!"
"Then what is it? Okaa-san and Tou-san already said I could go! I'm not a little girl anymore, I'm growing up!"
"You're not supposed to grow up…" Kai mumbled under his breath.
Miho stared at her brother defiantly. "I'm going, and that's final. Bye."
She fumed out of the house, making a promise to herself that if her brother wouldn't accept that she was old enough to go out with her friends, she would make him realize it. And she had the perfect person in mind to help her with her perfect plan.
-End of Flashback
"Okay, but I think that just walking and going on dates won't help him get over it. I think that he needs to see that his sister is growing up," Aki said, grabbing Miho's hand and pulling her closer.
"W-wh-what are you doing!?" stammered Miho, turning slightly red but not resisting.
"Well, you were the one who said we need to act more intimate Miho-chan," said Aki, "but you have not done anything other than calling me Aki-kun instead of Aki-sempai."
"Don't you think you're taking advantage again?"
"Maybe, but it's not every day that I can hold my Miho-chan without struggle."
"Playboy," muttered Miho under her breath and slightly pulling away .To her surprise, she found a strong force not letting her get away.
"Don't try to get away or else it won't be believable," Aki whispered in her ear as they reached Piffle Café.
"But I don't act all lovey-dovey. Onii-chan will notice the difference if he does not see me struggle at least a bit," complained Miho, struggling against Aki's strength. She had not noticed how strong he was.
"Okay, okay. Struggle, but I won't let go."
And Miho had to be contempt with at least being allowed to struggle.
-Not so far from the pretend-to-be couple-
"I can't believe you dragged me all the way here just to spy on Miho-chan and Aki-kun. I thought you were taking me on a date! You seriously need to get over your sis-com, and soon," stated Meilin.
"Shhh," Kai sweetly put a finger over Meilin's mouth, "I will be taking you on a date my dear Mei-chan but after I make sure that savage there doesn't taint my pure, little Miho-chan."
"You shouldn't be spying on your sister. She'll get really mad at you."
"But what if that playboy breaks her heart or crosses the line? I need to be there to save her as the devoted 'nii-chan I am," Kai said straining his neck to hear at least a bit of their conversation.
"Come on Kai. You know, as much as anyone, that Miho-chan can perfectly take care of herself. Now let's go to our date," said Meilin, dragging a reluctant Kai to the opposite direction, to the movies.
"Don't do anything to my Miho-chan you playboy, or I'll kill you!" thought Kai at every step he took.
Kai glanced back at the couple on last time with binoculars at hand. Wide-eyed, he saw the "couple" holding hands, talking happily and entering Piffle Café, famous spot for couples. "I'll kill you," he muttered under his breath.
-Back at Piffle Café-
"Weird, I thought he would follow us inside," commented Aki sipping on his milkshake.
"Me too."
"Do you think he decided to end his stalking sis-com habit?" asked Aki hopefully.
"Nah. Meilin-sempai probably dragged him off to a date. He isn't one who would give up easily. That's something I always admired about him. He's so determined, yet this time, I wish he weren't," said Miho with a sigh.
"Yeah, I admired that too, but at that time we did not realize it can get to be annoying."
"It's weird…"
"What is?" asked Aki.
"Well, everything I admired about him when I was little became annoying when I grew up."
"You always thought of your brother as being perfect, Miho-chan, and then he became that stupid good-for-nothing Mizuki Kai. But you know he still has some good traits. He cares for people, usually you and Meilin-san, and he is determined."
"You're right. Though it's suffocating, he does care for people," said Miho with a wistful smile at the image of being with her perfect brother.
"How about finishing our milkshakes and going around the plaza. I'll buy you something," proposed Aki.
"For real? You'll be me anything I want?" asked Miho.
"Anything for you my Miho-chan," responded Aki with a smile.
"Then I want a new laptop."
After seeing Aki's still happy face, Miho realized he could buy her a laptop though she had been kidding.
"So what laptop do you want Miho-chan?" asked Aki, feeling happy that Miho-hime was being a bit more selfish with him.
"I don't know. Let's go into a store and then we'll see. But you know, I kind of want a Mac." said Miho, testing her luck.
"A Mac. Hm," my dad might try to kill me but he was the one who said to always flatter the lady, "Sure, whatever for my dear Miho-chan," said Aki, casually blowing Miho a kiss.
Miho blushed slightly. She still had not gotten used to Aki's casualness in a relationship.
Wait, did I just think RELATIONSHIP!? Cool your head Miho. Remember this is a pretend relationship to get onii-chan off my case.
As they walked, the both became conscious of the other, even more than when the whole pretend started. Miho suddenly noticed how much Aki had grown over the half-school year that they barely saw each other now that he was at high school and she was still in junior high. He looked really handsome wearing a pair of black jeans with a stylish top. Miho started fretting with her outfit wondering if she looked okay.
Aki also noticed how pretty and cute Miho had become in the time they barely saw each other. She was wearing a white mini skirt and a white jacket over a sleeveless sky blue shirt. Yet she had taken off the jacket because she was feeling hot and he could see her bare shoulders. She has become really cute, thought Aki, suddenly blushing.
Suddenly a gust of wind blew Miho's skirt up and Aki saw everything. They both blushed crimson. Oh my God, this can't be happening. Aki-kun just saw my panties. She blushed even more at this thought.
Soon they found that their date had become extremely awkward. Whenever one of them started a conversation, the other just blushed and kept quiet. Yet, when they passed by a computer store, Miho yelled.
"Aki-kun, hurry, come see! Hurry!" said Miho.
"What is it?" asked Aki, walking towards Miho and eyeing the store.
"Can't you see? It's a computer store!" cried Miho ecstatically, trying to drag Aki into the store, "Come on, let's go inside. Remember you promised to buy me a Mac," beamed Miho happily.
"Oh it is true," said Aki, still eyeing the shop a bit critically, then he saw a Mac ad at the shop's window, "guess it's your lucky day Miho-chan, they're selling Macs in this shop."
"YAAAY!" cried Miho, "I finally get a Mac. I've wanted one for so long, thank you Aki-kun," Miho beamed up at him, hugging him tightly.
"I'm glad I was able to make you happy Miho," said Aki, unintentionally giving Miho one of his irresistible killer smiles.
"U-um, let's go inside," said Miho, awkwardly fiddling with the hem of her shirt and keeping some distance between them after she realized she had hugged Aki.
"Sure," mumbled Aki, confused by Miho's sudden change of emotions.
"Oh my God, look Aki-kun! They have every single type of Mac! Now which one should I buy" yelped Miho.
"I'll buy you whichever you want, but just for today. And let's try to make it fast, I think that your brother's movie is ending."
"How do you know that onii-chan is watching a movie?"
"I saw where they were heading before we entered the café," answered Aki.
"Well let's hurry; even Meilin-chan won't be able to control him if he sees you buying me so many things," said Miho, feeling sad that her brother was such a stalker. For once in her whole time knowing Aki, she wanted to spend time with him. And she suspected it wasn't because of her brother's stalking or all the gifts she was getting. But she sent that thought out of her mind. She did not really want to date a playboy, nor have a one-sided love with Aki. And just as she finished saying this, they saw Kai and Meilin walking across the street, looking at the computer store.
"HIDE!" shouted Aki and Miho simultaneously, their lips accidentally touching as they turned towards the back of the stored. They stopped mid-track, surprised at what had just happened.
"Stupid!" shouted Miho, "That was my first kiss! You stole it," she shouted at Aki as she hit him on his chest.
"Miho stop! This isn't as important as your brother's rage, I-I think he saw it."
"I don't care! I want my first kiss back!" shouted Miho, pounding Aki on the chest.
"Shit! He's coming. Let's go Miho, if we don't hide, Kai will never let you have a boyfriend, nor a kiss."
The store's costumers watched, surprised, as the two teens ran around the store, the boy dragging the almost crying girl to the back, barely missing the computers. What they did not know was that there was yet a bigger surprise to come.
Author's Note:
Tehe. This was actually the first fan fiction I tried writing, not my other story, 'The Confession.' I had kind of put this in the back burner and stalled finishing it due to lack of ideas (along with laziness) but I finally got around to getting this finished, which was supposed to happen last year. It was also supposed to be a one-shot, but knowing that people actually want to know what happens next makes me write faster and with more enthusiasm. I know, shouldn't be like that but, oh well. People get used to it :P hehehe The next chapter will be posted soon, I hope :D Review if you want to. But, just so you know, they make me write faster ;) Virtual cookies for all! Except for me, I shouldn't have one, I feel hyper enough :D
Looooooove to all of you,
Amanbu-chan! 3
