Attractions with Trouble --Prologue

Somewhere in Tomoeda+

Damn…he is catching up to me, Sakura thought. She was getting tired fast, which was obvious for the fact that she had been running for about half an hour now.

"Big brother, puff this would be pant a great time for you to come to my rescue…puff... pant."

Just as she turned the corner, an ES 300 Lexus, pearl-colored with a gold bottom, pulled up. The window rolled down and the face of her brother came into view.

"Hey, get in!" commanded Touya.

Sakura didn't bother opening the door. As she jumped into the open window, and Touya speeded off to who-knows-where.

Sakura took a few deep breaths before she asked, "Hey thanks. Where are we going anyway?"

"To the airport…we can't stay in Japan any longer," Touya said with his eyes concentrating on the road.

Her eyes widened, and then she turned to face him, "Hoe! You can't be serious!"

He was still looking at the road ahead, but she could tell he was very serious--dead serious. This was all her fault. Not only does she have to now leave the country, but also dragged her older brother into the same mess.

Beginning of Flash Back

"It is time for you to pay your father's debt, Kinomoto."

"Hoe? What debt? Who ARE you?" Sakura was utterly confused. It wasn't everyday that an older man would pull her into an alleyway on her way home from Tomoyo's house asking her to pay a debt. Usually they would say some cheesy pick-up line and ask for her phone number.

"The debt is the money YOUR father borrowed from me that YOU will be paying for him. My name is of no concern to you." The man was getting impatient very quickly.

"Well, since I didn't know about it, can't you give me a month or something?"

"No. In your father's will, he specifically said that YOU had the money to pay me back. I will be forced to kill you if you don't give me the 1, 000, 000 dollars right this minute."

This guy was serious. She didn't know what to do, so she did what first came to her head. Her mood "unexpectedly" changed, and she gave him a weak glare and then smirked, "Heh, you won't take me alive!" With that she ran for her life.

End of Flash Back

Remembering this made her feel very depressed. Also, her sudden courage surprised her. She had so many questions. Such as why her father mysteriously died, why he said that she would pay off his debt and not her brother, why did he not pay the debt off himself, what relations did her father have with this man. Her own brother didn't know about any of this or so she thought. She began to frown.

"Ah, don't worry, squirt. I already packed all our belongings, and they are in the trunk." He was kind of smiling. I don't know what father did or what is exactly going on,but what I do know is that I will protect you as your only older brother, a promise I made to mom years ago.

"Thanks a lot, big brother, I owe you a million (literally)," Sakura said sighing, not caring that he called her a squirt, "By the way, where did you snag this fancy little car?"

"A friend lent it to me. He'll pick it up from the airport later."

"Ro0oite," said Sakura rolling her eyes. It was a she and he bribed her into giving it to him.

On the airplane+

Sakura took her seat. "So bro, where are we flying to?"

"America. It's too damn huge; there is no way he will find us…well…at least for a while." Touya said this while putting some things in the upper cartridge.

"Will we ever go back to Japan?" asked Sakura with much hope.

"We will, Sakura…we will." He kissed her forehead before he took his seat next to her.

Tomoyo's house+

"RING RING! (at least 10x)"

"Eriol, she isn't picking up the phone. Where could that auburn-haired-fourteen-year-old girl be?" Tomoyo was getting worried. She distinctly remembered her telling Sakura that she would be calling her when she got home and she doubted that it took Sakura 3 hours to get home.

Why is Eriol so quiet? She turned to face him and found him staring at her frowning.

"Eriol, do you know something?"

"…."

"Hello? Did I do something?"

"Huh? What? No, why?"

"It looked like you were frowning at me…but…you usually look content when looking at me," said Tomoyo playfully smiling.

He realized this and blushed. "Uh…um…no, heh-ehe," He coughed, "But I do recall seeing her brother being rather uptight lately." Phew…that was a good save, Eriol, but I think she knows you like the way she looks. Those foOine legs of hers, her sapphire eyes, her silky hair, her smooth skin and…AHAH! She's looking at me, andI think she knows I'm thinking about her. Okay, just smoothly look away…

Tomoyo started laughing when she saw him look away blushing again. Maybe I should wear skirts more often, HAHAHAHA!

TBC…
