It was nine o' clock in the morning when Sakura awoke. She crawled out of bed quiet as she could, not to awake the sleeping man beside her. She tiptoed her way out of the room, heading downstairs, cell phone in hand. She stopped in the living room and sat on the couch, remembering the moments from the previous night.

"...Yeah, well Touya said you hadn't didn't come home last night.. So, I figured you'd still be there.. Dropped off a few outfits.." The voice came out through the phone softly.

"Oh, arigato, Moyo! You're the best!" Sakura exclaimed as quiet as she could.

"So..." Tomoyo had an obvious smile through her talk. "Fill me in.. What happened?"

"The basics of it: Lovely dinner, ignored my favorite eighties movie... Enticing kiss.." Sakura sighed happily. "Yawning.. Wore his pajamas.. His beautiful lush bed, cuddling.. A simple 'I'd really like to be with you...' Accepted, more kisses.. Sleep.."

"OH! How kawaii!" Tomoyo exclaimed so loud, it caused Sakura to pull the phone away from her ear. "Gomen! I'm just really excited for you!"

"That makes two of us really.." Sakura replied.

"Good! You deserve it.." Tomoyo paused. "Uhm, I know this is really last minute.. But.."

"But what?" Sakura asked curiously.

"Can you do a shoot today and tomorrow?.. About one in the afternoon.. Syaoran can go if he wants.. Please?"

"I thought you already had your models picked out."

"They're not reliable!.. I need my best friend! Pleaaase?!" Tomoyo begged.

"Of course I will Moyo-chan." Sakura laughed softly.

"Oh! Arigato times infinite! I'll pick you up around twelve. I'll give you a call beforehand. I've got to go though, so I'll see you soon! Love ya, ja!"

"Ja." Sakura said, as she closed her cell phone.

"Here are you clothes that were delivered earlier this morning, Sakura-chan." Chiyo said, walking into the living room where Sakura sat.

"Oh, arigato, Chiyo-san." Sakura replied, taking the stuffed backpack from Chiyo.

"Doitashimashite.. Would you like anything to eat? Or would you like to wait for Master Li? I can ask Wei to fix you something."

"Oh, that's okay. I can wait. Arigato."

Chiyo smiled, "Or.. I can even draw you a warm bath. How about that?"

"Honestly.. That sounds wonderful.. If its not too much trouble, I hope you wouldn't mind."

"Oh darling, not at all. It'll be in Master Li's room, of course. I'll come back once it's ready." Chiyo said, as she headed towards the bathroom upstairs.

"Of course it would be in Syaoran's.. It's the best room AND bathroom in the whole house." Sakura thought.

Chiyo returned five minutes later, informing Sakura it was almost ready.

"Arigato, Chiyo-san." Sakura said, getting up.

"I've also left a spare toothbrush on the sink. Have a good bath." Chiyo said, smiling happily.

"Arigato.. Really, you're amazing."

"Off you go Sakura-chan. Enjoy!" Chiyo said, leaving the living room as Sakura made her way upstairs.

Sakura walked into the bedroom quietly, placing her backpack on the table nearby. She looked at Syaoran still asleep in the bed. The covers only covering his waist down, exposing the rise and fall of his chest. His hair appeared slightly disheveled, sticking in every direction. Sakura smiled, as she walked into the master bathroom. She was surprised she hadn't noticed the large bath that was tucked toward the back wall, filled with steaming hot water and bubbles. Sakura walked over to the bath, sitting on the surrounding platform, and carefully put her hand in the water. The water was hot, but to Sakura's liking within the cool home. She quickly undressed, sliding herself into the bath.

"This feels great." Sakura sighed happily, as she relaxed, letting the hot water engulf her head to toe.

Syaoran awoke slowly, feeling for the petite body that was suppose to be nearby. He opened his hazel eyes slightly, and looked over, only to find ruffled sheets and pillows. Syaoran sat up, throwing his feet over the edge, and rubbed his eyes vigorously to wake up. It didn't do any good however, so Syaoran had decided to head for the bathroom. He shuffled his way slowly, from his bedroom to the bathroom. He walked in and stopped in front of the toilet, putting his left arm against the wall for support.

Sakura stared at the man who entered the bathroom. His shuffles caught her attention as she realized he was standing in front of the toilet.

"Oh... My... Kami.." Sakura thought, as she watched him put his arm against the wall to support his still rather sleepy self.

He sighed, pulling his pants down partially, releasing himself.

"It's too early.." He thought, as he relieved his bladder.

Sakura eyes grew wide, and ducked under the water, causing the water to splash out over the edge.

Syaoran slowly, but surely turned his head toward the direction of the bath. "Hmm?" Syaoran looked over sleepily, at his pants and shirt lying in a pile on the floor.

"A bath?..." He thought, looking at the bubble filled bath as he finished, and covered himself. He looked closer at the pile and noticed the pink lacey bra and thong lying next to them. "Shit..." He snapped awake, his attention in full. He quickly walked toward the bath.

Sakura came back up a few seconds later, realizing Syaoran was standing in front of the bath. She coughed slightly, and opened her eyes.

Syaoran frowned, "Gomen.. I hadn't realize you were in here.." He sat down on the edge, staring at the soaked, beautiful woman who sat in his bath.

"Uhh.." Sakura stuttered, "I-It-it's not your fault.. I-I-It's just Ch-Chiyo-san ran me a bath..."

"Well.. I don't think you were expecting that to happen.. Gomen." Syaoran sighed, leaning in to kiss Sakura on the forehead.

Sakura half smiled, a bit embarrassed as what she had seen. "It's okay.. Honest." Her cheeks were flushed.

"That was definitely one thing I wasn't expecting to see.."
"Oh, I almost forgot!" Sakura sat up a bit straighter, careful not to expose herself too much above the bubbles. "Uhm, Tomoyo needs me to model for the shoot today and tomorrow.. I know it's last minute, but she really needs me. Do you want to go?.."

Syaoran smiled, "If you want me to be there with you girls, of course I will.. What time are we suppose to be there?" He asked, standing back up.

"There's something wrong when I find a beautiful woman taking a bath in my home..."

"Well, she's going to pick us up around twelve-ish.. So, soon.."

"Oh.. Alright, well, I'll go tell Wei to cook us breakfast in about thirty minutes, and I'll take a shower in a little bit.. Don't hurry too much out of the bath.. I didn't mean to ruin it.." Syaoran grimaced.

"It's okay, really. You were still sleepy." Sakura smiled, seemingly unfazed.

"Alright.." Syaoran said, as he leaned down to Sakura's level. He cupped her face, embracing her lips with his, and quickly nibbled her lower lip. He pulled away quickly, in attempt to control himself. He cleared his throat, and walked out of the bathroom.

Sakura sighed softly as he walked away, smiling. She dunked her head back in the water, washing her hair roughly to remove all the mousse that kept the puff together. Once she was done, she sat still in the bath, examining the room.

The bathroom was large for it being a bathroom, but about the same as a medium-ish bedroom. It was a two-part bathroom. Initially when stepping into the first room, the toilet and sinks are apparent, but held a larger room connected to it. The expanded room contained the large bath and shower. Other than the obvious bath, the shower was quite large. It was surrounded by green glass blocks, tiled high to the ceiling, curving from one part of the wall towards the other, but stopped however, creating a gap for the entrance and exit.

"It's really nice in here.." Sakura thought, as she grabbed the towel folded neatly nearby. She stood up and unfolded it, wrapping it around her body. She stepped out of the bath, and stepped down the steps, reaching the floor quickly. She bent down to grab the little pile of clothes, as Syaoran walked back into the bathroom.

"French toast okay?" Syaoran asked, looking as Sakura had bent down to grab the little pile of clothes, quickly clearing his throat.

Sakura's eyes quickly reverted back up, her hair blocking part of her view. "Sounds good." She smiled, standing back up.

Syaoran's eyes grew wide, and stared. What else would a guy when you find a beautiful girl, wrapped up in a towel, her long auburn hair hanging loose, dripping water every which way.

"G-g-good.. Uhm, I'm going to jump in the shower then.." Syaoran said, making his way toward the shower. "I'll warn you this time.. I'm dropping my pants, but I'll leave my boxers on before I get in the shower." Grinning, he took off his pajama pants, and stepped into the shower.

Sakura smiled, watching the outline of his figure through the foggy green glass blocks. Watched as he took off his boxers, throwing them back out the entranceway, landing on the floor. Sakura smirked, remembering how quickly she had torn his pants off in need to throw them into the wash. She left the shower, making her way back into the Syaoran's bedroom. She grabbed her backpack she left on the table and opened it. Inside she found the basics she needed for the day: bra, underwear, jeans, t-shirt, hairbrush, toothbrush, a pair of flip-flops, and one of her many purses.

"Oh, arigato Moyo-chan!" Sakura thought happily, as she quickly got dressed, and brushed her hair to perfection. She then went into the bathroom and brushed her teeth. Once she finished, she headed downstairs into the kitchen.

;

"Ohayo-gozaimasu, Sakura-chan." Wei said, as Sakura stepped into the kitchen, taking a seat on one of the stools.

"Ohayo-gozaimasu, Wei-san." Sakura said happily, a smile on her face.

"Juice for you?" Wei asked.

"Hmm... What do you have?" Sakura asked.

"Orange juice, orange/banana/pineapple juice, fruit punch?"

"Oooh, the orange/banana/pineapple is my favorite!" Sakura's eyes lit up.

Wei chuckled, as he grabbed a glass and poured the juice out. He handed the cup to Sakura, who drank it happily.

"Do you just want just syrup and powdered sugar on your toast? Or would you like some fruit and cream?" Wei asked, preparing all the ingredients.

"Syrup and powdered sugar.. It's the best."

About fifteen minutes later, Syaoran came downstairs, dressed in only a pair of jeans. "Smells delicious, Wei."

"Will be ready in a few minutes, Master Li." Wei said, cooking the food.

Syaoran said, sitting on the stool next to Sakura's. He sat facing her, as she turned to look at him. He smiled, staring at the beauty, leaning in for a quick kiss on the lips. "Ohayo-gozaimasu..."

"Ohayo.." Sakura said softly, blushing slightly.

"So, I didn't know that you modeled part time.." Syaoran asked, quite the questioning look on his face.

"Uhm.." She laughed nervously, "I-I model when she needs me... I've been in a few magazines, and I've been offered a contract.. But, I love to draw more. It's just nice to make extra money to save really."

"You're quite the woman.."

Sakura scoffed, "Hardly."

"You are.. Really." Syaoran leaned in for another quick kiss. "Really.." He whispered, pulling back.

"Here you are." Wei said, as he placed the plates of food in front of the two.

"Arigato, Wei-san." Sakura said happily staring at the food before her.

"Ah, Arigato Wei." Syaoran smiled.

"What kind of juice would you like today, Master Li?" Wei asked as he made his way toward the fridge.

"Hmm.. Orange juice would be fine.. Arigato Wei."

Wei nodded, as he grabbed the orange juice jug out, and grabbed a glass. He poured some juice, putting the jug back into the fridge, and then gave the cup of juice to Syaoran. "Enjoy." Wei said, as he stepped out of the kitchen.

"Well, let's enjoy the breakfast, then I'll finish getting ready so we can be ready when Tomoyo-chan picks us up."

"Mmhmm." Sakura nodded, stuffing her face with the delicious french toast.

The two finished their breakfast a little over twenty minutes later. Syaoran grabbed all the plates and cups, putting them into the sink. "Alright, well I'll finish getting ready then." Syaoran said, leaving the kitchen.

"Oh, got to get my sandals out of your room before I forget." Sakura said, as she got up and followed Syaoran upstairs.

"Tomoyo bring you the bag of clothes..?" Syaoran asked, heading for his dresser.

"Yeah, she's the best." Sakura smiled, as she put her clothes from the previous night into the backpack.

Syaoran smiled, putting on a white a-shirt and then made his way into his walk-in closet. "Agreed." Syaoran said, as he came back out, sporting a black polo shirt. He went into the bathroom for a good five minutes before coming out, his hair perfectly done in a fauxhawk. He then headed back over to his dresser where he grabbed a bottle of cologne, spiriting it onto himself. He put it back, and grabbed his wallet, keys, and cell phone, stuffing them into the proper pockets. Wallet in the back right pocket, keys in the left front pocket, and the cell phone in the front right pocket. Lastly, he grabbed his Rolex watch, sliding it onto his left wrist. "Well, I'm ready."

"Oh? Are you sure? I thought you weren't pretty enough yet." Sakura said giggling.

Syaoran stared at Sakura menacingly, and made his to her.

"Uhm.. I was joking.." Sakura said nervously.

"Right.." Syaoran smiled, bending down to kiss her.

"Oh, how mean of you." Sakura said, as the kiss broke.

"I'm not always mean."

"Yeah.. Okay, you're right." Sakura said, as her cell phone went off. "Pure snow pure heart futari-" Sakura quickly grabbed her phone, answering the call. "Moshimoshi? Hai.. Be right down." Sakura said, closing her phone. "She's here."

"One more." Syaoran asked softly, grinning.

Sakura smiled, kissing him once more. "Better?"

"Much." Syaoran said, as he went to put on a pair of sandals.

Sakura slipped her sandals on, grabbed her purse and headed downstairs, Syaoran in tow. She grabbed her handbag she left on the counter, stuffing it into the purse. The two then headed out the door, seeing Tomoyo's limo.

"Hey!" Tomoyo said, throwing open the limo door.

"Ohayo." Syaoran said, having Sakura go into the limo first. He followed shortly after, and they all sat on the comfortable seats.

"Arigato for doing this shoot, Sakura-chan." Tomoyo said happily, staring at the two, sitting side by side.

"Of course, Moyo-chan." Sakura said smiling. "I don't plan on letting you down."

"You never do.. And I won't either." Her eyes gleamed.

Sakura laughed softly, looking at Tomoyo.

"So.. It's super, super official?" Tomoyo said as she cupped her hands together, eyes wide.

"Hmm?" Syaoran seemed a bit surprised. "Word has already spread?"

"Ohhohoho." Tomoyo giggled. "She called me this morning of course.. I had to find out the details." She grinned, almost mad.

"I see.." Syaoran said, looking over at the beauty near his side.

Sakura blushed, feeling the stare from her now technical boyfriend.

"Can't keep your mouth quiet for a little while, huh?" Syaoran said, giving her a stern look.

Sakura's mouth dropped at his words, as she turned to stare at him. "How da-" Her words were cut off quickly by the rush of soft, warm lips taking over hers.

"OH HOW KAWAII!" Tomoyo exclaimed, quite loud.

"..Only quiet when I have your lips.." Syaoran said quietly, pulling himself back.

"Oh.. You... I hate you." Sakura pouted.

"Oh, you two are perfect.." Tomoyo giggled.

"Arigato." Syaoran said, grinning.

"Pffffff." Sakura was still pouting, just as they arrived at the studio where the shoot was located.

Syaoran opened the door, letting himself out first, and then held it open for the girls to get out after.

"Come, come!" Tomoyo said, leading the two into the studio. "You can wait here, Syaoran. I've got to take Sakura to the dressing and make-up room. We'll be back!" Tomoyo said, leading her and Sakura away.

"Oh…. kay.." Syaoran said, as he looked around. There were lights, and chairs placed all over. The set background was a single grey color, a maroon armless love seat sat in the middle.

"Oh, hello, are you a model?" A woman asked to Syaoran's right.

"Huh?" Syaoran looked over at the woman, a dark brunette, dressed in a black a-line skirt, and a white dress shirt.

"Uh, no.. I actually came here with Daidoji Tomoyo, and my.. girlfriend, Kinomoto Sakura."

"It's kind of crazy to call her my girlfriend now that I think about it.."

"Oh, I see.. You certainly have the looks to be one.. Hmm.. Sakura hadn't mention of a boyfriend the last time I saw her.. Is this recent?"

"Uh.." Syaoran was unsure what was appropriate to say.

"Oh, gomen. I'm Minzuno Kinu, Tomoyo's assistant." The woman said, holding out a dainty hand.

"Li Syaoran." Syaoran replied, softly shaking her hand. "It's very recent, by the way.. The whole boyfriend/girlfriend thing."

"Oh.. Well, that's good. She needs a man." The women named Kinu said, smiling.

"Kinu, Kinu!" Tomoyo's frantic voice rang throughout the room as she appeared.

"Hai, hai?" Kinu said calmly, as Tomoyo stopped by her side.

"...Nevermind. I guess it wasn't that important because I forgot." Tomoyo said sheepishly.

Syaoran chuckled at Tomoyo's words, while Kinu just shook her head and smiled.

"Oh, you've met Sakura's boyfriend?" Tomoyo emphasized the last word happily.

Kinu's smile grew bigger. "Of course.. I thought he was a model at first though.."

"Might as will be one." Tomoyo winked.

Syaoran blushed a light pink.

The sound of several footsteps headed their way, just as the photographer and his assistant walked into the studio.

"Ohayo, Tomoyo-chan." The photographer said, as he placed a quick kiss on Tomoyo's cheek.

"Norio! How are you?" Tomoyo asked, as everyone arrived.

"Good, good. How are you?"

"Fine... Oh, we had to have Sakura stand in for a model again."

"Ooh, lovely! That girl is beautiful and amazing.. I'm surprised she hadn't pursued modeling as a career." Norio said, as he opened up a rolling bag he brought with him. He pulled out his camera, and made sure everything was in perfect order.

"Oh, who's that handsome guy over there?" One of the female models said, obviously oogling at Syaoran.

"Hands off ladies!" Tomoyo said abruptly. "We've work to do!"

"Yes, yes. This shoot is inside and tomorrow we will be out in an open field. So I expect beautiful shots! You two first!" Norio said, pointing at the first male and female model that stood in front of him. "We're not doing annoyed faces, so FIX IT!"


Oh, oh, yes that's it.

There is a bit of a surprise in my profile.

Take a glance, and let me know.

Stunninglythere
