oo2: "Twisting Turns"
The platform was packed. It was seven o'clock in the morning on a Monday and Sakura's first day of work. She had figured that this would happen and even though she left early there was no avoiding the crowds. Especially in Tokyo. A ding echoed throughout the station, signaling that the next train was approaching. Tokyo was definitely different from Tomoeda, but it was a nice different. The fast-paced lifestyle was something she could get used to. As soon as the doors slid open, everyone filed in, almost as if they were water gushing out of a hole. Another ding resonated in the air and the doors shut firmly behind them. It was hard to move, they were packed like sardines inside! Sakura tried to keep a straight face as someone stepped on her shoes thus pinching her toes. Luckily, there was a little more breathing room after some people got off the first stop. Still, there were no open seats, so Sakura just clutched onto the handrail.
It offered little help when the train shifted, causing people to bump into Sakura. She lost her grip and fell backwards onto someone's lap.
"I'm so sorr—"
She peered up at amber eyes and unruly, chestnut hair.
It was her neighbor!
She instantly remembered a few days back when he was jogging shirtless, and her cheeks quickly turned red.
He smiled and shook his head, as if saying it was okay before helping her up. She thanked him and kept her back to him for the duration of the trip. She wasn't able to notice that they both had the same stop.

A/N: This one was actually inspired by my friend who told me about his trip to Japan. I am so envious, but I plan on going next year when it's sakura season. I'm super pumped. Anyway, I've written a few more of these and although there is no plot they are rather continuous. I honestly just wanted to write fluff because Sakura and Syaoran are just so good for that. I hope you're having a good day, wherever you are xoxo.
