Sakura: Hey everyone! Chapter4 of Sakura's Innocence. I'm introducing the chapter with
Syaoran.
Syaoran: I don't want to be here.
Sakura: Sure you do!
Syaoran: No I don't.
Sakura: Just admit you are lovin' this story.
Syaoran: That would be a lie.
*Sakura sighs*: Syaorannnn.
Syaoran: Go away!
Sakura: Fine!
Sakura and Syaoran entered his apartment. They had just gotten back from ice cream
where they met Eriol and his date. It was so strange because there was something about her
that made Sakura feel like she knew her. Sakura shrugged it off and decided to enjoy the
moment. She was sitting on the couch with Syaoran as they watched a movie. It was Pearl
Harbor(so sue me. I love that movie). The only light in his apartment was coming from the
TV. Everything else was dark. Sakura was leaning against Syaoran, and he had his arm around
her shoulders. She cuddled up next to him. Syaoran didn't seem to mind at all. Sakura felt a
strange feeling inside her. She recognized it but couldn't remember what it meant. She felt
Syaoran stiffen. Did he feel it too?
"Syaoran?" Sakura asked. "Do you feel that?"
He nodded.
"What is it?"
"You're sensing the aura of something. It must be very strong."
Sakura felt fear rising inside her. She hadn't used her magic since she was a kid
and thought her days of supernatural happenings were over. She moved closer to Syaoran. She
also felt the aura growing stronger. That must mean it's getting closer. "What could it
be?" Sakura asked nervously.
"I don't know." Syaoran said quietly. Sakura didn't like the tone of his voice. It
had a tint of worry in it. Syaoran didn't worry about or fear anything unless it was
serious. He stood up and said, "Stay here." He walked into the darkness. Sakura began to
slightly shake in fear and was afraid of every little sound. The aura was growing stronger
every second. She felt something brush her skin. She screamed and jumped up. It was only a
cat. Sakura sighed. "You gave me a fright." She said to the cat. It was black and had golden
eyes that seemed to glow. She didn't know Syaoran had a cat. Sakura reached over to pet
it. It didn't purr in response. Sakura felt something wet and sticky on her hand. She looked
at her hand and saw blood on it. She jumped and looked at the cat. It was staring at her
with its eyes glowing even brighter. She felt the aura growing stronger. Could it be coming
from this cat? Sakura had no idea what to do so she did the only thing she could think of,
she yelled, "SYAORAN!" At the top of her lungs. The cat jumped off the couch and ran into
the darkness. Soon after, Syaoran came running back to the room, his sword at his side. When
he didn't see any danger, he asked, "What?! What happened?!"
"A-A-A c-c-cat!" Sakura finally got out.
"A cat?! Why the hell did you scream if it was just a cat?!"
"Your cat's bleeding." Sakura said.
"I don't have a cat nor any pets!"
"Well, why was there a black cat in here?" Sakura asked.
"I don't know!"
"Syaoran calm down."
Syaoran obeyed and took a few deep breathes to lower his blood pressure. "Ok, tell
me what happened."
"Well, I was sitting here when I felt something touch me. I jumped up and saw it was
only a cat. It was black and had eerie golden eyes that seemed to glow. I felt the aura
coming from it. I petted it and looked at my hand. It had blood on it and then I looked at
the cat. Its eyes seemed to glow more and I felt the aura grow stronger, so I assumed it was
coming from the cat. Then I yelled for you 'cause I was . . . afraid and wasn't sure what
to do." Sakura slightly blushed after saying this.
Syaoran's eyes softened a little at this and he sat next to her. "Which hand is the
one with the blood on it?" Syaoran asked. Sakura showed her left palm to him and there was
no blood in it. "I thought you said there was blood on your hand."
"There was." Sakura looked at her right palm and it was clean too. She had no
evidence to show for it now.
"Are you sure you didn't imagine it?" Syaoran asked.
Sakura shook her head. "It was real alright." For some reason or another Sakura's
eyes began to fill with tears. Syaoran saw and wrapped his arms around her to let her cry
on his shoulder. It must have been real to scare her this much. He made some sounds to
comfort her and stop her tears. The TV suddenly shut itself off and there was complete
darkness. Syaoran felt Sakura begin to tremble in his arms. He held her tighter to let her
know he was there. Sakura began to cry again, and this made Syaoran even more determined to
stop whatever it was and protect his cherry blossom. Sakura grabbed his shirt in her fists.
She was so afraid. Every little sound, slight wind, or strange feeling made her jump.
" . . . Syaoran . . ." She squeaked out.
"I'm here." He replied. He let one arm go and grabbed his sword, ready to attack.
A few minutes went by and nothing happened. Sakura stopped trembling and crying. Her grip
on Syaoran's shirt lessened. As her eyes became adjusted to the dark, she could see the
shapes of objects. She was constantly afraid that something would lash out and try to kill
her. She knew that with Syaoran at her side, however, there was a very slim chance that
whatever it would be would last more than a few seconds or maybe even a minute. As she
gained more confidence, she lifted her head and looked around. She looked at Syaoran or
more his outline. She couldn't tell anything about him. Suddenly he stood up. Sakura's
grip on his shirt slipped and all she could feel was her leg against his shin. She felt
and heard him move away into the darkness. She strained her eyes to see, but it was to no
avail. What if Syaoran left her? No, he would never do that! Not with her so afraid, would
he? Then where was he? Suddenly the lights turned on. Sakura winced at how bright they were
compared to the darkness. Syaoran walked over to her.
"That was freaky." Sakura said as she let out a heavy sigh.
Syaoran nodded. At least you don't have to sleep here tonight. He thought to
himself. He sat down next to her. He let his head back and closed his eyes. They were so
close when the lights went out. She was literally clinging to him, but that was kind of a
turn on. That meant she felt safe by him and thought he could protect her from anything. A
small smile crept to his lips and he let out a small laugh.
That caught Sakura's attention. "What's so funny?"
Syaoran shook his, "Oh, nothing . . ."
"What?!"
"You really wanna know?" Syaoran brought his head back up and looked at her.
Sakura nodded. Her eyes were wide as if she was going to hear a great secret.
"When the lights went out you clung to me."
"What's funny about that?! So I was scared. It's a human emotion." Sakura said a
little angry that he was making fun of her.
"No, I didn't mean it as an insult. I was just thinking how . . ." Syaoran trailed
of and slightly blushed.
Sakura couldn't tell what he was thinking. He had a sly smile on his face so Sakura
thought she knew what he was thinking. She slapped him. He grabbed his cheek not because it
hurt but because he was surprised.
"What was that for?!" He asked.
"You and your perverted thinking." She answered.
"WHAT?!"
"I know what you were thinking."
" . . ."
"You were thinking perverted thoughts about me and you!"
"Wha- No I wasn't! I was thinking how close we were and how you were clinging to me.
I thought that must mean you felt like I could protect you and I thought it was . . ."
"What?" Sakura asked softly.
"I don't know."
Sakura wasn't convinced. "Tell me or . . . um I'll slap you again."
Syaoran gave her look. It didn't matter if she slapped him or not. He sighed, "I
thought it was, well, I guess kind of . . ." He couldn't think of a word to describe it.
"nice I suppose." He looked up at her. Her eyes had sparkles in them.
"That's sooo sweet!"
Syaoran blushed at this. No one had ever said anything he said was sweet(except for
his mother, but that doesn't count). " . . . uh . . ." How was he supposed to respond to
this? " thank you???"
Sakura threw her arms around his neck. "You're my valiant hero!"
Syaoran blushed furiously at this. Her valiant hero? He liked the sound of that.
"As the damsel in distress you comforted and protected, it is my duty to reward
you."
Reward? What kind of reward? His mind wandered a bit. No! Bad! Very bad! But what
if . . . NO!
Sakura brought her lips to his and gave him a long kiss. "What kind of reward is
that?" Syaoran asked a little disappointed.
"You didn't like it?" Sakura asked. She was a little hurt by that.
Syaoran sighed. Even though she was seventeen, she sometimes acted like they were
still young. It annoyed him a little, but she was so innocent. "No, it's just . . ." If
Sakura slapped him now and said he was thinking perverted thoughts about them, he would
have to admit he was. She tilted her head to one side.
"What?"
"Never mind." Syaoran ran a hand through his unkept auburn hair.
"Syaoran?"
He looked at her, "What?" He asked softly.
"I . . . do you . . . would . . ."
Her stuttering and choice of words made Syaoran curious as to what she was trying
to say. "What?"
Sakura blushed a deep crimson and looked down at the floor. "Could I stay here for
the night? I-I feel safe by you."
Syaoran was completely taken back by this. He couldn't believe that she wanted to
spend the night in his apartment. "S-Sure." Syaoran felt himself blush.
"Just let me go get a pillow and blanket. And something for you to change into."
Syaoran began to walk towards the hall that lead to his room when Sakura asked,
"Are you planning on sleeping on the couch again?"
Syaoran turned around. Wasn't it obvious? Of course he was. "Yes."
"I . . . um . . . you don't have to." She said quietly, her cheeks were still a
deep crimson.
"No, I wouldn't make you sleep on the couch."
"No, I mean . . ." She got up and walked over to him a bit timidly. " C-Could I,
Could I-I . . . um . . . I want t-to . . . uh . . ."
"What?" Syaoran asked softly.
"Do y-you mind if I-I . . . um . . . slept with you?" Sakura asked if it were
possible her cheeks would be more crimson.
Syaoran was completely taken back by this request. Sleeping in his apartment was
one thing, but sleeping with him was completely another. Did she want to . . . NO! She
wouldn't want to . . . Would she? "What do you mean?"
"I-I'm still kind of . . . afraid. I feel s-safe by your side."Sakura quickly
answered. "Do you mind?"
So, she didn't mean it like he thought. Thank God! He totally would have been
unprepared. " . . .um . . .uh. . . I-I g-guess it's o-okay."
"Thanks." Sakura said.
"Y-you're . . .uh welcome." He went to his room and got out some of his old boxers
and a T-shirt. He went back to the room, and Sakura went to change in the bathroom. Syaoran
wasn't sure what to wear to bed. He usually just wore boxers, but would she think he was
trying to . . . you know? He reminded himself she had already seen him in his boxers before.
He decided he would.
Sakura walked back in. The boxers barely stayed on her because of her tiny figure.
The shirt fell off one of her shoulders. Syaoran hadn't undressed yet. He led Sakura to his
room and took a second to himself to change. He then let Sakura in. They just stood there by
the doorway. It was an extremely awkward situation.
" . . . um . . . are you tired?" Sakura asked. What the hell kinda question was
that? She mentally asked herself.
Syaoran smiled at this. "Awkward huh?"
Sakura nodded. "It shouldn't be. We're just going to sleep." So, she went and sat
on the edge of the bed. She looked back at Syaoran. He turned out the lights and made his
way to his bed. Sakura knew he was next to her when the bed lifted her up a bit since she
was lighter than he was. She looked over towards him. She could barely see his outline.
He looked back at her. Sakura looked in front of her. She laid down in the bed, pulling the
heavy silk covers over her. She heard movement and knew Syaoran had also. Why was her heart racing? She thought she saw something and moved towards Syaoran.
"Are you afraid?" He asked.
"Yes. Kind of." She replied. Just admitting it made her move closer to Syaoran.
"Well, that's what I'm here for."He joked.
Sakura turned over to look at him. She hadn't realized how close she had gotten
towards him. Their faces were inches apart. She gulped. Her hand shook as she moved it to
his face. She hesitated then moved back some his bangs and leaned forward to kiss him.
He was about to kiss her back, but hesitated. "Maybe we shouldn't."
Sakura opened her eyes and looked at him strangely(even if he couldn't see). "What?"
Syaoran knew that if he kissed her it would most likely move to something else. He
didn't want that just yet. They had only been going out for two days. He was confused and
didn't know what to do. "You know what it will lead to." He answered quietly.
Sakura wasn't intent upon that, but she knew that it would probably lead to it.
"Yes, even if we don't mean to." She leaned forward and kissed his cheek. It was amazing
what soft skin he had.
Her lips were so soft. It was hard to keep from throwing his arms around her waist
and kissing her passionately.
"Syaoran?"
"Hmm?" Syaoran already felt himself drifting into sleep.
"I-I don't feel afraid anymore."
Syaoran pondered if it meant more than what it appeared to be. He realized it did
when Sakura kissed him passionately. I thought that was my part. He thought to himself. He
wrapped his arms around her waist. Sakura wrapped her arms around his neck and ran her hand
through his messy hair. Syaoran stuck his tongue in her mouth, eager to explore it. Sakura
did the same. She moaned as he began to put kisses down her neck. "You said we weren't going
to." Sakura mumbled.
"We're not. We're just making out." His answer was muffled.
Sakura had to laugh at that.
"What?" Syaoran was pulled out of his fantasy.
"Just making out, eh?" Sakura rolled on top of him and kissed his upper body a
little. "That's your idea of making out." She got off him and laid next to him.
"You can make out with me any time if you do it that way." Syaoran joked.
Sakura laughed and fake slapped him. "You better behave." She warned.
"Or what?" Syaoran asked.
Sakura wasn't sure how to answer that. "That's confidential."
"Oh, really?" Syaoran put his face inches from hers. Then he dove in and began
kissing her neck. Sakura giggled.
"Stop! That tickles!" Sakura said between her giggles. Syaoran said something, but
she couldn't understand what because it was so muffled. Sakura had tears coming down her
face from laughing so hard. Syaoran looked at her and smiled.
"Will you tell me now?" Syaoran asked.
"You didn't do that to make me answer the question. You did it for your own
pleasure." Sakura replied.
Syaoran said, "You found me out." Their faces were still inches apart. Syaoran was
close enough that Sakura could tell that his eyes were amber even in this darkness. Sakura
lifted her head. Their noses touched and soon their lips followed. It seemed to last for
eternity. They finally pulled back both gasping for breath.
"Syaoran?"
"What?"
Sakura yawned, "I'm glad we don't have school tomorrow. I'm probably gonna sleep in
late."
"Ya. Me too." Syaoran replied. Sakura turned around and cuddled up closer to
Syaoran. He wrapped an arm around her waist.
It was a while and Syaoran still hadn't gone to sleep. It felt like he had
forgotten something. He looked over at Sakura and saw she was asleep. She was so beautiful.
He leaned down and ever so gently kissed her lips. "Goodnight, my Cherry Blossom."

Sakura and Syaoran entered his apartment. They had just gotten back from ice cream
where they met Eriol and his date. It was so strange because there was something about her

"Syaoran?" Sakura asked. "Do you feel that?"

"What is it?"
"You're sensing the aura of something. It must be very strong."
Sakura felt fear rising inside her. She hadn't used her magic since she was a kid

also felt the aura growing stronger. That must mean it's getting closer. "What could it
be?" Sakura asked nervously.
"I don't know." Syaoran said quietly. Sakura didn't like the tone of his voice. It
had a tint of worry in it. Syaoran didn't worry about or fear anything unless it was
serious. He stood up and said, "Stay here." He walked into the darkness. Sakura began to
slightly shake in fear and was afraid of every little sound. The aura was growing stronger

wrapped his arms around her waist. Sakura wrapped her arms around his neck and ran her hand
through his messy hair. Syaoran stuck his tongue in her mouth, eager to explore it. Sakura
did the same. She moaned as he began to put kisses down her neck. "You said we weren't going
to." Sakura mumbled.
"We're not. We're just making out." His answer was muffled.
Sakura had to laugh at that.
"What?" Syaoran was pulled out of his fantasy.
"Just making out, eh?" Sakura rolled on top of him and kissed his upper body a
little. "That's your idea of making out." She got off him and laid next to him.
"You can make out with me any time if you do it that way." Syaoran joked.
Sakura laughed and fake slapped him. "You better behave." She warned.
"Or what?" Syaoran asked.
Sakura wasn't sure how to answer that. "That's confidential."
"Oh, really?" Syaoran put his face inches from hers. Then he dove in and began
kissing her neck. Sakura giggled.
"Stop! That tickles!" Sakura said between her giggles. Syaoran said something, but
she couldn't understand what because it was so muffled. Sakura had tears coming down her
face from laughing so hard. Syaoran looked at her and smiled.
"Will you tell me now?" Syaoran asked.
"You didn't do that to make me answer the question. You did it for your own
pleasure." Sakura replied.
Syaoran said, "You found me out." Their faces were still inches apart. Syaoran was
close enough that Sakura could tell that his eyes were amber even in this darkness. Sakura
lifted her head. Their noses touched and soon their lips followed. It seemed to last for
eternity. They finally pulled back both gasping for breath.
"Syaoran?"
"What?"
Sakura yawned, "I'm glad we don't have school tomorrow. I'm probably gonna sleep in
late."
"Ya. Me too." Syaoran replied. Sakura turned around and cuddled up closer to
Syaoran. He wrapped an arm around her waist.
It was a while and Syaoran still hadn't gone to sleep. It felt like he had
forgotten something. He looked over at Sakura and saw she was asleep. She was so beautiful.
He leaned down and ever so gently kissed her lips. "Goodnight, my Cherry Blossom."
