Last Chapter:
"What was I thinking about before I got Wei's phone call? Oh… Now I remember. I was thinking of why it was so cold in the house. Duh! I left the window open last night. Then why was Sakura so warm?" Realization finally dawned on Syaoran. "Don't tell me that Sakura…"
End of Last Chapter
"Don't tell me that Sakura has a fever. Are you kidding me?" Syaoran raced up the stairs and ran into to room. Sakura was still sleeping. Cold air that was coming through the window blew against Syaoran's bare arms. He hurriedly went to the window and closed them. He turned on the heat in the room and felt Sakura's forehead. Her head was pretty warm. He got out a thermometer and woke Sakura up.
"Sakura, Sakura, wake up," said Syaoran while gently shaking her. Sakura moved a little bit. "Sakura, wake up," said Syaoran a little louder.
Sakura sat up groggily. "What happened? My head hurts really badly," mumbled Sakura.
"Sakura, I need you to take your temperature really quick. I think you have a fever."
Without paying much attention, Sakura took her temperature. Syaoran checked it. "Sakura, lay down, you have a 107 degree fever. (Fahrenheit) That's a high fever."
Syaoran helped Sakura lay back onto the bed. He tucked her in. They were sleeping without blankets last night. That's why they got Sakura got the fever. Syaoran went to find some medicine for Sakura. He went downstairs and cooked breakfast quickly. After he was done, he went upstairs. He took note of the time so he would know when to give Sakura her medicine again.
Sakura stirred. She opened her eyes. Sakura saw Syaoran setting the food on the small desk by her. The smell of the food woke her up. The food looked great and probably tasted great too.
"I see that you are awake," said Syaoran, breaking the silence in the room. Syaoran let out a little smile. He helped Sakura sit up. "Let me feed you. I don't want you to waste your energy when you have such a high fever."
"But…"
"Don't worry about it. Just get better soon. I made some soup. It should warm you up a little." Syaoran let out a sigh. "Sorry, it was completely my fault. I was the one who didn't close the window last night sorry."
Sakura blushed at the thought of what happened last night. "It's not your fault at all."
"There is no need to cheer me up. I know that it was my fault. How could I have been so dumb? I can't believe myself," said Syaoran.
"Syaoran, it wasn't your fault. If it was, it would have been mine too. Anyways, the soup looks good." Sakura reached a hand out for the spoon that was in Syaoran's hands.
Syaoran pulled his hand away. "Like I said, you have a high fever and I don't want you to get anymore weaker than you are already."
"I can feed myself…" Before Sakura was able to finish her sentence, Syaoran stuffed the spoon into her mouth.
"Swallow," said Syaoran.
Sakura swallowed and pouted cutely. "I know how to eat Syaoran."
"Okay, I'm just making sure."
One spoonful by another, the soup was almost done. Syaoran felt his face heat up at the thought of Sakura's lips. He was surprised on how he had enough courage to say that he would feed her.
"Okay, I'm going to clean the dishes, you can turn on the TV if you want to," said Syaoran as he put the remote control by her head.
"Aren't you going to eat anything?" asked Sakura worriedly.
"Don't worry about me. I'll grab a bowl of cereal before I wash the dishes. Get some sleep Sakura." Syaoran gave her a smile and left.
The door clicked and he left Sakura there with her heart beating fast and face heated up. "What is with this feeling? I have never felt it before. I feel so… So…. I can't explain this feeling. It's driving me nuts! It feels really nice, yet it's so confusing at the same time. It's so weird. Ugh! What is this feeling!?!" Thinking about all of this in her head, Sakura soon fell asleep. When Syaoran came back into the room, he saw Sakura fast asleep with a cute expression on her face. He looked at the remote control on the table and saw that it was in the same place as it was in the beginning.
"I guess that Sakura was so tired and exhausted, she didn't even want to watch the TV," Syaoran mused. Syaoran took a few steps toward her. "She is so cute when she is asleep." Syaoran stared at Sakura, he took a few more steps toward her. Soon, he was right next to her. Before he knew it, he was sitting on the bed staring at her. "Why does this feel so familiar? Oh yeah, maybe it is because that I did this last night too. Why can't I just get rid of this feeling? Why did I have to fall in love with the one girl won't probably ever fall in love with me." Syaoran reached over and tucked a lose stand of her hair behind her ears.
As he did this, Sakura stirred. Immediately Syaoran withdrew his hand and stood up from the bed. Sakura opened her eyes.
"Sorry if I woke you up. I didn't mean to."
"No problem. I wasn't really planning on going to sleep. I just accidentally fell asleep somehow," mumbled Sakura.
"Take your temperature again. I want to see if it got any better or any worse," said Syaoran. Sakura took her temperature again. "You still have a 107 degree fever. I'm getting kind of worried. It's a really high temperature and I don't know what to do.
"I'll be fine. It's not getting any worse. That is the good part. I should be fine." Sakura gave a reassuring smile.
"Let me get a cold towel to put on your forehead. It should make you feel better."
"Thanks."
"No problem." Syaoran went into his bathroom and found an extra towel. He soaked it in cold water and rinsed it. He came back out leaned over to put the towel on Sakura's forehead. Sakura blushed at the close proximity. She could feel his warm breath on her face. "I hope he doesn't notice the blush on my face," thought Sakura desperately.
"I wonder why Sakura's face is red. It's probably form the fever that she has," thought Syaoran. He noticed how close he was to Sakura and blushed.
"Syaoran, do you have a fever to? Your face is all red."
"Uh, I'm fine. There is no reason why my face is red," stammered Syaoran. He moved away from the bed and sat down on the chair closest to the bed. "Well… Get well soon I guess."
"Did I tell you that school was cancelled because it was flooded and that your mom wanted you to stay here because the electricity was kind of went off? Also, Wei said that he couldn't work today because his house was flooded and he needed to clean it up," said Syaoran all in one breathe.
"No I don't believe that you told me any of that. I guess you have to take care of me the whole day huh?"
"Yeah I guess." Syaoran took the towel off of Sakura's forehead and went to the bathroom and rinsed it under rushing cold water. He came back and put he towel back onto Sakura's head. "I hope that you will feel better soon."
"Don't worry I'll get better soon. Did I say thanks yet?
"I have no clue," said Syaoran.
"Well, anyways, thanks for being by my side and thanks for everything that you have done for me. Thank you." Sakura sat up and the towel fell onto the bed. She quickly kissed Syaoran on the cheek.
Frozen, Syaoran didn't move. Finally, he found his voice. "You're welcome."
Sakura blushed and laid back down. However, Syaoran was too busy trying to conceal his blush to notice Sakura's. He took the towel that fell and he put it back onto Sakura's forehead. "I think you should go to sleep." Syaoran leaned down and kissed her cheek. Once again they blushed but neither one noticed the other person blushing. Syaoran made a move to get up but Sakura lifted her hand and latched onto his arm.
"Syaoran, stay with me. At least stay with me until I fall asleep. Please?"
Syaoran was really surprised. "Okay." He sat back down on the bed but Sakura didn't let go of his hand. She closed her eyes hoping the first person that she saw when she woke up would be Syaoran. Soon, Syaoran fell asleep. He fell asleep even before Sakura did. His head fell on Sakura's shoulder. Sakura opened her eyes when she felt a weight on her shoulder. She turned her head only to come face to face with Syaoran's sleeping face. "Wow! I didn't know that he is so cute when he is asleep." Sakura smiled. She snuggled in and soon fell asleep knowing that Syaoran was right next to her.
