Hey people, I finally got around to finishing this chapter. Sorry about the spelling and grammar and all that stuff. I hope that this is long enough. If not I can try and make them longer. Anyway, go read the story, I worked kinda hard on it.

Chapter Nine: Relationships
Syaoran POV
I put my key in the lock and opened the door. I walked into the house slowly trying not to alarm anyone to my presence.
No one seemed to be around. Weird. I looked at my watch; it was only 7:06PM.
"Where is everybody?"
I didn't let the uneasy silence bother me. Instead I went up to my room and dropped my bag on the floor. I went over to my dresser and placed my keys next to the many bottles of cologne. I glanced at the mirror, and that's when I saw that picture.
Ren. She was a beauty. I remember the hours we spent in the hot tub fooling around.
I miss her.
I reached out to the photo to take it down, everyday I try to take it down, but something inside me won't allow it.
"Fuck, I still love her."
I dropped my head down trying to think of a way to get her out of my head. I think about her every hour of everyday. In the middle of math class she's on my mind. While I'm eating lunch I think of her. Even in my dreams I can't escape her.
I turn away from the mirror to find Eriol leaning in my doorway looking at me.
"You're thinking about her again."
"Eriol, just shut up about it."
I went over to my bed and lay down.
"Where were you today? I came home and you were gone."
I reached into my pocket and pulled out his cell phone and tossed it to him.
"I didn't know you were into phone sex? Masturbation, yeah that's a given for any man, but phone sex? And with Sakura? No wonder you always hanging around her so much lately."
He looked at me confused? "What are you talking about? I've never had phone sex?"
"Yeah, well that's not what Sakura told me."
I put a smug smile on my face.
He looked at me weird again. "You were with Sakura?"
His expression changed, he looks…he looks jealous.
"You're jealous!"
He turned away heading out of my room.
I got up and following him into his room.
"I haven't been in here for a while. I forgot how blue it was."
Eriol stood in the doorway waiting for me to leave. "Get out!"
I smiled then went over and lay down on his bed putting my hands behind my head.
"Nope, not until you admit you like her."
He rolled his eyes, knowing that I would sleep there if I had to.
"She's my friend, that's it."
"Yeah right, if you had the chance you'd fuck her in a second."
"No, only you do that."
I got up from his bed and started to leave. "Just make a move on her already."
As I was leaving the room I heard him say, "I can't go after a girl you like."
I was going to turn back and yell at him, but I was in too much of a good mood.
Instead I went back to my room and made sure to lock the door so Eriol wouldn't pop in again.
I had my eyes closed as I laid there not thinking about anything special.
That's when Eriol's stupid notion of me liking Sakura replayed in my head.
I don't like her, she's not girlfriend material. Sure she's attractive and everything but she's just not my type.
I go for more extravagant girls like…Tomoyo. Yeah maybe now that I'm friends with Sakura she could hook me up with Tomoyo.
It's not like she has a thing for me anymore. She should have no problem with that.
Then I let my eyes close as I drifted into a deep slumber.
Sakura POV
I woke up to the sound of my alarm clock. It was 7:00 in the morning.
Wow my weekend is almost over.
Today was Sunday and I had to get ready to go sing in the chorus again.
I went into the bathroom and by the time I can out I was ready to go. I ran downstairs and grabbed one of those breakfast bars as I ran out the door.
It's a good thing the church is only two blocks away.
I lightly jogged there trying my best not to be late.
As I step inside I hear Miss. Austin call me.
"Sakura honey, be a doll and join me for a second." She was waving her hands for me to join her.
Ok, you can get through this.
I slowly walk her way knowing just exactly what was coming. Every Sunday it was the same thing, I go to church, and Miss. Austin would find a new boy to introduce me to.
She was standing next to a handsome guy with blonde hair and blue eyes. He was tall, very tall, and he wore a navy blue suit with a white collar shirt tucked perfectly into his pants.
"Sakura this is Mike," Then she turned to him, "Mike this is the one I've been telling you about."
He reached out his hand, "Nice to meet you."
Repressing the need to roll my eyes I just plastered on a fake smile and acted like I wanted to talk with this guy.
"Yes, nice meeting you too, but I must go get ready." I quickly let go of his hand and ran for the nearest door.
After a minute or two passed I realized that I had escaped into the coat closet.
"Please tell me no one noticed."
Then the organ started to play signaling the beginning of the service.
I waited until I was sure no one was around before I decided to step out.
Unfortunately, when I walked out I bumped right into the very guy I was running from.
"What were you-"
"Don't ask." I ignored his weird stares and continued into the chapel.
I bet he thinks I'm weird now. Well, I guess if I'm weird then he wouldn't bother me right?
I tried to ignore any other thoughts as I made my way up to the platform. Everyone else was already standing there waiting for the signal.
I went in my usual spot, the center of the front row. Some times I wish I was taller just so that once I could be in the back. I always wanted to be in the back. I like it back there. No one can see you and it's like having your own personal fort.
The organ begins to play and everyone starts to sing.
I was doing great, that was unit I saw Eriol sitting in the crowd smiling at me.
I almost choked on my notes when I saw him. But I had to keep cool. I don't want to come off like a total freak. Wait, why would I care if I come off like a freak, it's just Eriol. I don't like him that way.
I don't, I don't, I don't…or maybe I do.
"Thanks everyone for coming today, I hope to see you all next Sunday. God Bless!"
I walked off the stands and was heading home.
"You looked nice up there."
I turned around to see Eriol standing there smiling at me again. He didn't have his glasses on, but that didn't matter.
"Um…thanks, I didn't know you come here. Never seen you here before."
He walked up to me staring into my eyes, "I don't usually go to church, I just came to see you."
Ok, my heart is doing that fast beating thing again. I guess I like him, no use trying to hide that anymore.
I started to become uneasy having Eriol standing next to me so close.
"So, do you have any plans? I was thinking that maybe we could go get a bite to eat or something."
I looked at him. I don't think I have anything planned today. Maybe spending a day with Eriol wouldn't be too bad.
"Sure, where did you want to go?"
Syaoran POV
What time is it?
I looked at my clock, it read 10:32am.
I plopped my head back down on my pillow and tried to go back to sleep. I wouldn't have trouble if Eriol didn't wake me up so early asking for some cash.
Damn Eriol, where the fuck does he have to be so early in the morning?
Well, I guess if he does start to get a life then maybe he'd stop hanging around me. The last thing I need I for Eriol to follow me around.
I tried closing my eyes again, but I guess there was no hope for sleep.
Note to self, yell at Eriol for waking me up.
So I got up and headed straight to the shower. When I got out I quickly threw on some clothes and grabbed the keys to the spare car and headed out. There is no way I'm going to stay at home all alone. Who am I Eriol? Maybe I'll go out and try to pick up some girls. Haven't done that in ages.
Sakura POV
Ok, this is so weird. Here I am in a little coffee shop with Eriol actually having a great time. He's so easy to talk to.
"So, how long have you been into singing?"
I looked into his eyes. They are really blue.
"Um…I don't know. It's just something I do. It always makes me feel good."
He nodded than took a sip of his coffee.
"Sakura, do you consider us good friends?"
I had my hands cupped around my cup of tea.
Ok girl, think about what you say before you say it. You don't want to lose Eriol as a friend.
"To be honest…yeah. I know it's weird and all us not knowing each other for long but you're really easy to talk to."
He nodded his head again. He looked like he was taking in every word that I say. Examining it for any possible flaws.
"So, then how about you and I go out sometime?"
When he said that I almost chocked on the tea I was sipping.
"What?" My eyes widen and I couldn't believe my ears, my eyes, I couldn't believe anything at that moment.
I guess I came off really, really surprised because the next thing I heard out of him was his reassurance.
"You don't have to say yes or anything like that. I was just asking. If you want to say no then I won't blame you for it. We'll still be close friends."
I put down my cup as I tried to form some words. The shock of him actually asking me out was overwhelming.
"No! I mean no, I would love to go out with you. Well, not LOVE, like I was waiting for you to ask, because I wasn't but that doesn't mean that I don't want to-"
He cut me off. "It's ok, I get what you're saying."
He put on that pleasing smile that can brighten up anyone's day as he looked at me with those soft blues eyes.
I guess I was staring because he began to blush. Blush! I've never seen Eriol blush. But then again I've never really talked to him before this week.
Syaoran POV
"Come on Syaoran, I thought you said you wanted to hang with me."
It was Wendy. I don't know what compelled me to call her and invite her to lunch. I guess I didn't feel like being alone.
Don't get me wrong, I have no problem being a lone, and it's not like I like her or anything.
Well, she isn't bad looking, and that's all that counts in the end.
"Syaoran, if you weren't going to pay attention to me then why did you ask me to meet you here? I have better things to do then follow you around all day."
"Then why did you follow me?"
She put on this innocent little girl act but I knew better. Wendy was one of those girls that you don't trust. The most she's good for is a little fun here and there.
"You can't blame a girl for falling to pieces after hearing your strong masculine voice on the phone."
She started to bat her eyes and inch closer to me.
We were sitting in a booth at a little dinner. Nothing much, after all it's not like this is a date or anything.
She sat right next to me clinging onto my arm almost digging her fake nails into my skin.
"So Syaoran, what did you have planned for us today?"
I shrugged my shoulders. I really had no clue.
"I don't know, maybe after we eat we can go to the mall or something. Maybe catch a movie. Stuff like that."
I wasn't looking at her but I could tell that her eyes widen with excitement. Excitement? Why would she be excited to see a movie? Not unless she thought this was like some kind of date. Wait, does she think that we're on a date or something?
"Um…Wendy…"
"Yes?" She inched closer to me if that was even possible with her already on my arm.
"Do you think that we on some sort of date or something? To be honest I just called you to hang out, nothing more."
She put on a devious smile on her face.
"Yeah, I know but I was hoping that maybe you'd change your mind when you saw me."
I peeled her off of me. "Well, I didn't. And I don't want you going into school tomorrow telling your friends that we went on a date and shit like that. You got it?"
She backed off of me a little. Then she started talking about what she looks for in a guy. I didn't really pay attention.
Finally our food came. At least she would have to shut up to eat right?
Why did I even think about inviting her in the first place?
Sakura POV
I finally reached home around 2:00PM.
I've never felt so good, so free. And all because Eriol asked me out.
As soon as I walked in the door my brother started drilling me about where I was and who I was with.
I pretty much ignored everything he said until I heard him mention a name.
"Wait what did you say?"
He looked at me with a disappointed expression on his face.
"After everything I said you only heard when I mention a boy. Honestly Sakura where is your head these days?"
"Touya just tell me."
He rolled his eyes and reached into his pocket pulling out a piece of paper.
"Some guy named Mike called you. I don't know something about meeting you in church. Anyway he wants you to call him back. Here's his number."
He was about to hand me the note but at the last minute he decided to crumple it up and throw it at my head instead.
"Oh, just wait until you go to sleep." Then I bent down and picked up the paper and stuffed it into my pocket before heading upstairs.
I tossed my body on my twin bed reliving today's events in my mind.
Today was a great day.
Syaoran POV
I don't know what happened between the dinner and the movies but all I know is that I'm standing on the front porch of my house kissing Wendy.
I can feel her hands move from my shoulders down to my back. Then she moved them up into my hair messing it up. Not that it wasn't messed up in the first place but I just don't like the way t felt, having her hands in my hair.
I pulled away, both of us were out of breath.
"Are you sure you want to do this?"
Had to ask first. It's been awhile since I last fucked a girl and I guess I lost my touch, but just a bit. The last thing I want to do is fuck a girl thinking everything is ok when she really doesn't want to fool around.
"Are you kidding me? I'm the one that insisted on us going someplace private."
Then she lunged at me again sticking her tongue down my throat.
Somebody really needs to teach this girl how to kiss.
She was basically slobbering all over me.
Somehow I managed to get my key into the lock during our outdoor make-out session.
When we reached inside she immediately started to take off my black leather jacket.
I kicked off my shoes and slyly moved my hands under her shirt searching for the hooks of her bra.
Then a smile came to my face when I realized she wasn't wearing one. She caught me off guard when she pulled off my black shirt leaving my upper body bare.
So I did what any man would do. I grabbed her tits messaging each one in my hands.
"Syaoran, screw this foreplay and fuck me now!"
I started to kiss her earlobe as we were heading up the stairs and that's when I saw them.
Eriol was standing in the living room with one eyebrow raised and a little smirk on his face.
But he was the last person I had to worry about. Next to him was my mother with her arms folded and I could swear I saw smoke coming out of her ears.
Man I'm never going to hear the end of it.
And next to my mom was the one girl I've been thinking about. The one girl that fills my dreams and nightmares.
Ren. She was standing there with her eyes closed. It was as if she couldn't even stand to look at me anymore.
Frozen in my position I realized what Wendy and I must look like. Here we are standing in the entrance with my hands up her shirt and me shirtless.
"Syaoran, I suggest you ask your lady friend to meet with you another time, and go upstairs and get decent. If you haven't noticed we have company.
I swallowed hard doing what my mother said. After I escorted Wendy out I put my shirt back on and went up stairs to change for dinner. Whenever we have company over we always have to dress up for dinner.
After minutes of searching through my room I managed to find a decent pair of slacks and a plain white t-shirt.
As I was whipping off the smudged lipstick from my face I heard someone knocking.
"Get your ass in here."
I knew it was Eriol, I was waiting for him to follow me. And I was waiting to yell at him for waking me so damn early this morning.
"Eriol, you bastard why the fuck did you wake me up so early?"
But when I turned around to look at him I noticed that it wasn't Eriol that was knocking.
All I saw was black hair and intense brown eyes.
"Ren, shouldn't you be helping my mother with…um something?"
She walked to me grabbing my hand into hers.
"I've missed you Li Syaoran."
Ok, so Ren has come back. Well, that can be a good thing for Syaoran. Maybe it will make him change for the better…or for the worst.
Review and tell me what you think.
