Recap

Syaoran nods, not sure what else to say but just being there hoping it would bring some comfort to his friend. He was trying not to overthink about his date but he couldn't help to feel all jittery for his date later that day. He just needs to see her and forget about his world. No fighting, no killing, no more danger. Syaoran had to stop thinking about her and so he leaned over and increased the volume on his stereo as he drove home with caution. Fucking Aka's are bound to attack at anytime and he wasn't in the mood for them at all.

Love my way, it's a new road...

I follow where my mind goes...

Swallow all your tears my love

And put on your new face

You can never win or lose

—Li Mansion

By the time the group arrived at the mansion, a meeting was called immediately. Everyone in the mansion went back into the main gathering room with a large table in the middle. Many chairs all around the table but the large chair at the end was almost fit for a king.I was definitely fit for the Alpha of the family with a large wolf head on top of the chair. The gang sat closely towards that chair with 3 other chairs empty nearby it. Everyone had their assigned seat in the order they are in the pack. Syaoran was called back to meet up with his grandfather before the meeting started.

"This is probably about tomorrow's mission" Takashi whispered to Akio who sat on his right.

On his left sat, Xue who was typing away on his laptop with his headphones blasting, glasses at the tip of his nose. Next to Xue's left was an empty chair but behind it was Tomoyo, who silently typing on her own laptop. Behind Takashi and Akio were their girlfriends had their own assigned chairs, close to their mates. Chiharu was on her laptop fixing her microphone as Meilin was cleaning her gun.

Everyone else in the room that sat at the table looked like older business men in suits but behind them, a few young gang members stood around, some looked deadly but new as the others looked like they have seen a few battles here and there. Everyone sat silently till the main doors opened as everyone stood up showing their respect as three figures walked in.

Syaoran walked in first with his grandfather behind him, both the same height as a taller figure followed behind them. He had a black mask with wolf teeth covering his lower face with his messy short black hair giving him a dangerous look. He was wearing all black with his sleeveless shirt showing off his black wolf tattoo with golden eyes. As Wolf sat at the head of the table, Syaoran sat to his right as the other figure sat on his left. Wolf nodded indicating everyone was fine to sit. He looked over at the empty seat that was between Syaoran and Xue.

"Everyone here? Where is Hiiragizawa?"

Just as he said that, the door slammed opened and Eriol quickly walked in, rushing towards his seat.

"I apologize for my tardiness, I wasn't informed of the sudden meeting that was called" Eriol said as he bowed towards Wolf before sitting in front of Tomoyo, next to Syaoran. He looked a bit disheveled and was out of breath, Syaoran frowned.

'I really need to talk with him' Syaoran thought as he looked at his cousin in disappointment. Xue, who also stopped typing gave Eriol a look of disapproval, he nodded towards Syaoran. Both of them shrugged as they turned towards the alpha.

Wolf cleared his throat "I called this meeting because I wanted to make sure everyone was on the same page about the mission tomorrow. As you all know, The Aka Foxes declared war on us not too long ago in China with all the attacks on many of our factories and most of our businesses. We've lost many lives and we are finally striking back here in Japan where it hurts the most for them. I've had many sources out here watching them and they have conformed to me that most of their leaders are here in Japan." he looked around at everyone in the room. "Enough is enough for me. I'm tired off all this non forsaken war with the Foxes and I want it to be over already."

Everyone all agreed and cheered abit as they listened to their Alpha.

"After tomorrow night, I suspect they are going to attack us at every chance that they get. Fang over here," nodding over to his left at the masked figure "Is going to lead on tomorrow mission with my grandson being his second in command. I want you all to hit them hard, with no one left alive and to come back safely as well."

He looks between the two young men "Any kind of failure towards the mission will be unacceptable as you both have many of our packs lives in your hands."

Both Syaoran and Fang nodded.

"As many of you will go out to fight, I trust those who are gonna be watching their every moment via cameras and radios, will help them complete their mission without any kind of hesitation and mistakes."

He looks over to the ones with computers. Xue,Tomoyo and Chiharu, who all nodded as Xue gave him a thumbs up.

"All of the other members will follow orders as closely as possible. We all will stick together and no wolf gets left behind. We hunt as a team, a pack! Now lets go over the plans thorough as many of us has plans for later this evening." He smiled a bit as he gave Syaoran a wink before turning over to the white screen that was in the middle of the large table with a smile. Some people snickered and gave a wolf whistle as they looked over to the young leader.

'Really Gramps….talk about embarrassing me in front of the pack. And does everyone know about tonight?'

Syaoran thought as he sighs, scratching his neck. He looks over to Fang who had his arms crossed, looking as serious as he listened to the mission that was being explained for the millionth time. He's known him for most of his life, but never actually got close to the young man. That's just because he's always so damn uptight and kind of a hard ass. His loyalty to the family was always a main priority for him and of course being with him being one of the top fighters among the pack, kind of an equal fighter to him...but not that good. Syaoran smiles as he remembered all the training they both had. Fang almost always beating him to a pulp but actually never won a single fight as Syaoran always had the upper hand in the end. He smirked as he nodded at Fang who just rolled his eyes. He always had his damn mask on. Everyone wears their wolf masks during the mission but Fang lived in his. He never takes it off, so to everyone but the Li family has no clue on what he looks like. How he became involved into the family, he has no clue but he is very close to 2 other members in the club but he rarely sees them since they are either in China or in the tech room where any tech wolf goes to. Now that he thinks about it, he believes they live here in-"

"Are you paying attention Little wolf or you just giving Fang over there googly eyes?

Syaoran snapped back to reality as he quickly looks over at his grandfather, turning bright red as everyone laughed a bit. "Forgive me sir. Just concentrating on the missions instructions that's all" He punches Eriol on the leg, hoping it would make him stop laughing. He groaned abit rubbed his leg whispering foul words to Syaoran.

Wolf sighs "As I was saying…" He continued on reviewing the mission.

A couple of hours later, already being 6 o clock, Syaoran wish for the meeting to conclude for the night, then next thing you know, everyone started to pack up and leave the room as Syaoran walked over to his grandfather, who was having a conversation with Fang.

"I see baby wolf finally got back to his senses to listen to the rest of the mission. Tell me, what kind of flowers were you imagining on getting me huh? I do like either Peach or Cherry Blossoms if you care to know" Fang jokingly said as he crossed his arms again.

"Sorry your just so... distracting. I couldn't figure out if your face would actually melt If I threw water at it or you would melt completely like the witch in wizard of oz."

Fang scoffed as he was about to say something till Wolf spoke up.

"Now boys, no pre fighting till the actual fight that's gonna happen tomorrow. Xiaolang, I believe you have a date to go prepare yourself for. Don't want to show up all black and blue do you?"

"Date? Like there's someone actually interested in your ugly mug? She has to be a monster looking girl or something to actually talk to you" Fang laughed a bit as he turned to leave "See you tomorrow wolves, I gotta make sure all the equipment work and ready to go."

Syaoran frowns as his grandfather smiles, he watched Fang leave out the door before turning to his grandson.

"He has his mother's spirit that boy. Now son, good luck on tonight. I want you to be on your best behavior. she's must be very lovely if she caught your eye. Us Li's have very good taste in woman, no room for monsters, unless they are a special type monster."

"She is something gramps. Intelligent, beautiful and brave enough to punch a football player in the face. Those green eyes of hers were flaming bright that day" Syaoran said proudly but didn't notice his grandfather's smile falter abit. He quickly continued to smile like it never happened and patted Syaoran on his back for encouragement.

"Well best of luck to you son. Now this old man must rest for the night. It's been a long day in the office and I just need a drink or two before heading to bed. Let me know how it went ok?"

Syaoran nodded as he walked out to leave for his room to prepare for the night. Wolf wouldn't be more proud of his grandson, the boy makes him proud almost everyday. But something he said just seconds ago shook him up to his very core as he started to walk out of the room.

'Green eyes…'

Time flew by as Syaoran was already ready for his night. He was already walking downstairs to grab his jacket and his keys. Just as he walked by the entertainment area, the previous idiots who were playing their stupid game were already yelling at the television screen from their current match. This time Eriol was there with his book as he looked over to him with his usual smile.

"Big plans little wolf or you going out to that date?" Blue haired cousin said sarcastically as he turned his page.

As soon as the word date was said, everyone stopped at looked at him.

"Oh shit! You mean an actual date with like an actual girl right?" Akio said taking off his game headset off. Both Akio and Takashi laughs as Syaoran frowns, Meilin smacks her boyfriends arm.

"Ow! Sheesh woman, it was just a joke" Akio pouts as Meilin rolls her eyes.

"Stop making fun of my cousin you dweeb. Xiaolang don't listen to these nerds. You look great! But who's your date? You've been talking to someone though? WHO IS IT?" Meilin yanked Akio's hair from excitement.

"Goddammit woman!" Akio yelled as everyone laughed.

Syaoran clears his throat "A girl Meilin. That's all you need to know for now"

"Whatever...Just..be careful ok? Don't want another ex getting all cra…"

"I get it Mei…" Syaoran snapped. Everyone got really quiet not really sure what to say with the sensitive topic.

"Anyways...you look real good Syaoran! I bet she's gonna be knocked off her feet seeing you tonight" Chiharu spoke up and winks at him, hoping to give him the encouragement he needed. He looked super nervous but excited.

"Thank you Chi" Syaoran smiles a bit, hoping she was right. "But before I go...Eriol a word?"

Eriol smiles as he places his bookmark on his saved page and got up to follow his little cousin. Syaoran led them to the other room and closed the door behind them

as soon as he got in.

"What's on your mind my dear little cousin?"

"Eriol where were you after school today?" Syaoran said as he looked at his cousin with all seriousness. He's been acting kind of weird lately with the disappearances and now that he had a chance to ask, he was going to find out tonight.

"I was at school, after class activity just lasted longer than usual today and I came here straight after. Why do you ask?" Eriol said as still kept his cheshire smile.

"Not with Ann right?" Syaoran asked, hoping his cousin wasn't stupid enough to mess with her. She was nothing but trouble and she could honestly care less of anyone but herself.

Eriol frowned at that moment.

"No Syaoran. That was a one time mistake and I would never do that to Tomoyo again."

Syaoran sighs. He always knew when Eriol was lying but luckily he wasn't at this moment.

"You know I love you both, but have you talked with her lately? You guys seems distant and she hasn't been her usual self"

"I don't know. We were good a couple of days ago and she kinda snapped at me a bit. I'm just giving her some space right now." Eriol said as he looked back at his cousin.

Syaoran nods "You should talk with her when the time comes again. You guys don't do so well apart. Just fix it ok? We all need to stick together at a time like this and I want all you bastards to be safe when the Aka foxes attack."

"Aw...Our dear little wolf does love us" Eriol was back with his stupid Cheshire smile as he patted Syaoran shoulder.

"Yeah whatever," Syaoran rolls his eyes "Anyways I have to go but I'll be in later tonight"

"Have fun will ya? I know it's been a while but I think you got a good one" Eriol gave him a thumbs up.

Syaoran nods, looks at Eriol curiously "A good one eh? I haven't even said who it was."

"Oh I know...I know everything…" Eriol smirks as he goes over to the door and opens it.

"Don't wanna be late do we now?"

Syaoran smiles abit as he walks by him says his later's to the other members. He held his jacket as he walked down the hallway and stops in front of Xue's room and knocks. Xue answers his door with his big gamer headphones on and his glasses off.

"Hey cuz whats up?" Xue rubs his tired looked up and down at his cousin "Leaving?" Behind him was his huge computer desk that had 2 large TV's next to each other, one screen had his homework and while the other one was obviously the game that the other idiots were playing in the other room. Smaller monitor devices behind it with with music videos playing, tv shows and news playing as well as whatever the property cameras were showing. He Had a mini fridge under his desk with his backpack next to it.

"Just need you to keep an eye on things around here for me while I go out." Syaoran looks over ands sees Tomoyo on Xue's King size bed with her laptop in front of her and piles of paperwork all around her. She looks up and smiles at him.

"Hey! Nice outfit you got on there Li! Oh I got something for you for the final touch of your outfit!" Tomoyo got up quickly and went over to her backpack that was on the other side of the bed and ran up to him.

"Here I fixed it up for you" She pulled the chain out of the little bag she had it in and placed it around his neck.

"Tomo….is this..?" Syaoran looked down at the pendent that was hanging off his chain. It was his father's old Wolf pendant that he used to wear.

"Your grandpa asked me to fix it up for you and give it to you after words. Made the eyes different since Orange isn't your color so I made it green instead" She smiled.

Xue nodded in approval. "Nice! Gives the outfit the complete look now."

Syaoran smiles "Thank you Tomoyo. Alright. Well I'll be back later tonight so keep an eye out"

They both nodded they bid him a good night closing the door as Syaoran left.

"Wonder where he's going?" Xue said as he sat back down on his gamer chair.

"To a date of course!" Tomoyo pulled a soda out of the fridge and opens it.

"Date? How'd you know?" Xue looks back at her with his eyes bulging out abit.

"His outfit, who'd you think set it out for him? I told him when he was ready to go out for any date to wear that outfit." She smiles as she went back on the bed to finish her homework.

Xue nods "Nice….but I wonder with who?...hmm maybe my sis might know." He pulled his phone out and texted Meilin, who in the end was as doubt founded as he was about his cousin. Syaoran is keeping a girl from everyone and they gotta find out who she is as soon as possible.

'Maybe when he's ready I guess' Xue thought as snapped out of his thoughts when he heard Tomoyo's phone go off. She looked down on the screen and gets up.

"It's Eriol...He wants to talk" Tomoyo said as she was packing her things.

"Hmm maybe you guys get 'the' talk tonight?" He watches her as she ruffled his hair, giving her an annoyed look.

"Maybe...but we'll see I guess. I'll see you tomorrow neh?" She leans down to give him a kiss on his cheek as he nods, watching her nervously out the door. Xue just went back to his big screen and continued his night with taunting the fools in the next room.

-Kinomoto Residents-

'It'll be alright as long as I'm myself,Right?'

Sakura thought as she was taking deep breaths. Music played softly in the background and She started to sway abit to the current song playing.

Oh I beg you, can I follow?
Oh I ask you, why not always?
Be the ocean, where I unravel
Be my only, be the water where I'm wading

You're my river running high
Run deep, run wild

'He should be here any minute.'

Sakura looked at herself in the mirror making sure everything in place. She wore a white spaghetti strap shirt with light blue jeans and a light grey cardigan to cover her shoulders from the chilly night. She bend down to check her shoes, light grey converse to somewhat match her outfit. Standing up again and nodding at her appearance in approval. As the music started to build up, she begin to dance abit to calm her nerves.

I, I follow, I follow you
Deep sea baby, I follow you
I, I follow, I follow you
Dark doom honey, I follow you

He a message, I'm the runner
He the rebel, I'm the daughter waiting for you…

Not noticing the time, she heard her phone stop playing the current song and her normal ringtone started to blast loudly. She went over to picked it up from her nightstand and smiles as she answers.

"Hey!" his deep voice made her cheeks pinkish.

"Hey yourself! Ready to go?"

Sakura smiles as she grabbed her small purse and turned off her lights while walking out of her room.

"Yeah you outside?"

"Yup, just saw a light turn off from the top windows, that you?"

As she petted Kero, Sakura walked out of her door and locked it. "Yup coming out now". She hung up her phone and turned to spot the black Nissan sports car in front of her house. She sped walked and Waved at him as got to the car.

Syaoran lowered his music as he turned to look at her as she got in the car. "Hey ready?" he smiled warmly, heart almost beating out of his chest.

Sakura almost melted at his appearance. He wore a dark blue long sleeve shirt with black jeans and black chucks. His messy hair still somewhat look a little wet,his silver chain with a wolf head pendant hanging loosely on his chest. She realize that she was too busy staring to answer back from his question and spoke up.

"Yeah, all buckled up" she showed her seatbelt that was across her chest.

"Alright hang on k?" Syaoran as he drove off down her street.

And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten-ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine

Sakura smiles as she listened to the music that was softly playing in his car. She recognized it as it was something that her father would play in the kitchen as he cooked.

"I love this song…"

Syaoran smiled "Me too. My dad would play this song most of the time when we used to hang out"

"My dad too! He would tell me it was a favorite of his when he was a teen and it was a constant song his friends would play." Sakura smiled as she sees him smiled.

"My grandpa would tell me that I have the same shitty taste as my dad in music but then again he also thinks that my cousins Lady Gogo music is far more tasteful."

Sakura giggled "You mean Lady Gaga! She's good too though! But The Smiths have this weird way of getting to you in some way."

"Yeah it does. Weird ass lyrics to some songs but I just like it because it reminds me of my dad. He passed when I was 6." Syaoran nods as he kept driving and would look over to her while talking to her.

Sakura frowns a bit "I'm sorry. My mom passed too when I was small. I don't remember her much since I was close to six, but I do remember her smile everytime she looked at me. Made whatever room we were in somewhat brighter and her hugs scared away every time of monsters I would be afraid of.." She smiled a bit as she looked down at her hands.

As they were at a red light, Syaoran reached over and covered her hand with his,squeezing them a bit to show some kind of comfort. Sakura looked up and both eyes looked back at each other. She smiled as he pulled back to continue driving as the light turned green.

Take me out tonight
Take me anywhere, I don't care
I don't care, I don't care
And in the darkened underpass
I thought oh God, my chance has come at last
(but then…

A couple of lights and some turns here and there, the black car finally stopped in a parking lot near downtown. Many people were out but not too overcrowded as Sakura looked around her small town. She smiled as she recognize the place.

"Hungry much?" Syaoran asked as turned off the car engine. They were at a small italian restaurant which happened to be her favorite place to eat. Sakura nods as they both got out of the car and walked up to the door. Syaoran held the door for her as she thanked him. She walked in as he followed.

Both teens sat at a small table as they ordered their food from the waiter. As soon as he was done with writing on his paper pad, the waiter walked away to get their order in as they both made small talk, asking each other simple questions and laughing. Neither of them had a care in the world but something about Sakura was really familiar to him. He wonders if they have met before somehow or if he's just feeling crazy somewhat.

"How's your hand doing by the way?" Syaoran said as the waiter came in with their food and both started to eat right away.

"Oh this?" She shows him her right hand. Her knuckles were alittle purple.

"A little bruised but nothing to worry about. What about you? Your cheeks a little red from earlier" Sakura reached over to touch his cheek softly, pointing out his small bruise on his face.

Syaoran almost turning cherry pink as he felt how soft her hand were against his skin. He quickly went back to his food, almost finishing the pile of spaghetti he wolfed down.

"Nothing that I can handle." He smiles "Remind me not to piss you off."

"Ha funny...well serves that jerk right." She pouted abit as she took another bite of her food. "Nothing but a spoiled brat who thinks he can do whatever he wanted because he's a stupid jock. Football's overrated anyways, but whatever I'll cheer the other guys instead everytime they knock him to the ground." Sakura continue to eat till she noticed he was staring at her with a soft smile on his face. She blushes.

"Anyways...I'm glad nothing too serious happened to you guys. I saw your senses coming back to you when I was calling out your name."

Syaoran took his last bite of his food while nodding. "Yeah I honestly was close to losing it and wanting to beat him senseless, but then I heard an angelic voice call my name out and it pulled me back to reality along with her bright green eyes staring right back at me." He placed his fork down and looks at her, looking into her beautiful emerald eyes and took a deep breath. "Sakura…"

"Hai?" Sakura wiped her mouth as she chewed the bit of food that was in her mouth.

"Before we go on to the rest of this...well amazing date...I just wanted to make sure...if your ok with this. With hanging out with me I mean. I know you don't care but we've had a couple of people stare at us here and I just don't want to cause any kind of trouble for you. And I'm sorry for bringing this up all of a sudden..It's just...I'm serious about this. Your probably the only girl that I can't get my mind off of since we met and I don't want to mess anything up." Syaoran knew that he probably didn't have to spill out his feelings like that but he couldn't hold it all in anymore. He needed to make sure before he would actually started to get feelings for this girl, well that's if he didn't start already.

'Did I honestly get lucky with this boy? Mom...are you seeing this? Is he a prince or something?'

Sakura couldn't help but stare at the young man in front of her. She studied his eyes and she knew right then and there that he was telling the truth.

"I don't care what others say, they can say whatever they like about us, and why would we care. Plus they don't really know us either. The more I know you…" She smiles softly at him "The more I feel like I've known you for ages. Just your aura... it so warm and safe, I can't help but feel like I'm flying or something. I know it sounds silly but I would tell you ahead of time if I wasn't really interested. So don't worry about it ok? Let's just see where this I don't know whatever it is between us goes to,but I'm willing to try if you are as well?"

Syaoran nods, his heart beating like crazy. 'I'm flying too…'

"Now" Sakura gets up from the table and offers her hand to him "Shall we? I love movies but not spooky ones, so let's go see what's out"

Looking up at his date, Syaoran didn't hesitate on taking her offered hand and followed her out the restaurant after paying for their meal, not once letting go of her hand.

Once they got back in the car and drove to the movie theater nearby, they didn't take too long to decide on what to watch. A comedy movie, nothing too scary or sappy. They stood in line at the concession stand waiting for their turn to grab some snacks while they chatted away laughing, hands still interwinde as they stood close to each other. Both didn't feel nervous at all. It was as if they were feeling complete with each others company.

The movie wasn't as long as they wished it would be and neither were ready for the date to be over so Syaoran suggested ice cream. He took her to his favorite ice cream place and both picked out 2 scooped cups of their favorite flavors.

"Hmmm I love ice cream! Though I've never heard of this place before though" Sakura took scooped up her mint chocolate ice cream.

"This place is kinda old actually. I guess since it's close to the edge of town not many know of this place but they always stay busy. I used to come here with my dad and gramps all the time when I was younger when we used to visit from China." Syaoran was almost done with his sweet treat as well. One scoop of rocky road and one of black cherry.

"Your grandpa sounds so sweet! And China? A long way from home aren't you?" Sakura spoke as they both walked towards a small park that was nearby.

They sat on a bench that was right by a small cute pond. Variety of fishes swam, while flowers floated on the calm water. The scenery was honestly perfect for the both nervous teens just trying to get to know one another.

"Yeah at first my parents would come into town to visit some friends they had here and my dad of course would work but he would still have time for us. Now were here with my grandfather and some of my cousins to accompany him while he does some work business here too. And since we only had a year of school left, minus well finish here right? That way If he needs us, we'll be closer to him." Syaoran smiles and he got up to toss his cup in the trash, taking Sakura's empty cup as well. As he sat back down on the bench, he sat a little bit closer to her.

"So do you do have any siblings besides your cousins? Sounds like your a lot closer to them" Sakura asked, curious to know more about the boy next to her.

"Well I do have four older sisters…" Syaoran said as he scratched his neck abit.

"FOUR? Wow so your like the baby brother right?" Sakura interrupted as she giggled a bit at the end of her question.

"Yes" Syaoran sighs annoyingly "But they act more childish than I do and they drive me crazy! I swear I think we were born backwards or something."

"Older siblings are meant to drive us crazy. My brother LOVES to pick on me. It's a constant thing but I know he loves me. Super over protective of me and likes to scare off any poor soul that tries to talk to me." Sakura knew she wasn't over reacting about her brother.

"He doesn't sound so bad, I mean I do the same with my sisters, but there all married with children so I don't have to worry as much. Their husbands know better then to hurt them" Syaoran smirked a bit remembering all his brother in laws faces when they were given their special warning. One of them even urinated his pants but he loved his sister much enough to get passed the warning.

"If one even glances at me he would just give them his stupid death glare and poof! Off they go. He used to terrorize my ex boyfriend couple years back." Sakura smiled a bit. Even though Touya was a pain in her butt but she still loved him with every bit of her soul.

"So ex boyfriend huh?" Syaoran blurted out without even realizing what he said.

"Oh yeah…" She blushed "But that was way back once upon a time ago. I would never go back to that presumptuous jerk and wish he got a house fall on him" Sakura knew she was over exaggerating but a breakup is a breakup and hers wasn't a great one.

Syaoran chuckled abit "Yeah ex's are no fun. Mine just got a little bit obsessed and I was blinded by her to know that she was terrible to everyone that I loved. It wasn't healthy"

"Wow crazy. My ex was almost never around and he just proved my brother right when he used to constantly warn me about him. We would fight most of the time and he would never tell me where he would disappear to. Like he didn't care about us at all and when I found him with that girl...the end I guess" Sakura frowns. Memories flood back to her but she instantly pushed them back when she felt his arm around her shoulders and pull her into him. She blushed as she looked up at him, green eyes shining as the moon reflected them perfectly and Syaoran was in that moment speechless.

"I'm not gonna say that I'm glad that guy was an idiot because he hurt you, but I'm just glad that I have you here with me instead" Syaoran said as he smiled a bit. Being so close to her felt so damn right that he didn't want to let go.

Sakura didn't know if kissing him now would be too early or not but she didn't want to rush ahead or anything that would scare him off. So she just snuggled into him as they both turned back to the little pond in front of them.

"Thank you" Sakura whispered, feeling blissful then she ever felt.

"No Sakura, Thank you" Syaoran replied as he wished this perfect moment would never end while holding the perfect girl.

Both stayed a bit longer talking till it was already near midnight. As much as they didn't want to leave,they both had to leave their little paradise and return back to their different worlds. They were already in front of her house again soon after they left their secret hideout. Soft music playing in the while they somewhat kept taking glances of each other parked inside of his car. Syaoran cleared his throat a bit and spoke up first.

"I can't believe time flew by this fast. Seems to happen everytime we hang out or something. Wish I had a time machine or something." Syaoran said as they both laughed nervously.

"Same. I would have us in a bubble and just slow time down outside of it so we would have more time." Sakura turned to look at him after she unbuckled her belt. "I really had a great time Syao."

Syaoran looked back at her as she smiled sheepishly "Likewise Saku."

They both stared at each other and as Syaoran's upbeat music suddenly changed into a slow soft piano intro. Sakura smiles as she sees Syaoran sheepishly coughs abit. He reached over to change the song but stopped as Sakura's soft hands stopped him.

You can blame me
Try to shame me
And still I'll care for you

You can run around
Even put me down
Still I'll be there for you

Sakura smiles as she looks over to him "Never knew you had a soft side for music like this."

Syaoran blushes "It's part of my dad's music he used to listen to. Though I think he added this song for my gramps. He always says They don't make music like this anymore!" he smiles as he intertwined his fingers with hers.

"He's right you know. The man knows his stuff! He sounds like someone fun to talk to." She smiles playing with his fingers.

"I bet he would love to meet you. One day maybe?" He looks at her, hoping for a maybe future date or something.

Sakura nods as they both laugh nervously. Neither of them noticing how close they were getting to each other.

The world
May think I'm foolish
They can't see you
Like I can
Oh but anyone
Who knows what love is
Will understand

'I can't help it. I have to taste her…' Syaoran heart started to pound loudly, almost feeling like it was about to burst out of his chest as he leaned closer to her.

'I can't believe this is happening..' Sakura couldn't help but feel drawn to him as she leaned into him as well.

As soon as their lips touched one another, neither could deny the little shock they both felt. It was a slow but gentle kiss as they pulled back to look at one another, staring into eachothers eyes.

Anyone
I just feel so sorry (anyone)
For the ones
Who pity me
'Cause they just don't know
(Anyone) Oh they don't what happiness love can be

"Text me later?" Sakura whispered. Her head was spinning and she was hoping he felt the same way she's feeling.

Syaoran nods as he exhaled a bit smiling. "Definitely"

Sakura blushes as she unbuckled her seat belt and opened her door to step out. She walked up to her gate but before she walked into her house to looked back at the car and smiled as she waved. He had his window down so she saw him wave back as she went into her house.

Syaoran sat in his car for a second looking up at her second story window lit up. He smiled as turned his car on and drove away back to the mansion, replaying a certain song he will forever cherish. The same with a certain emerald beauty as she laid in her bed with her headphones having the song on repeat.

I know to ever let you go
Oh, it's more than I could ever stand
Oh, but anyone
Who knows what love is
Will understand

Oh (anyone) they'll understand
(Anyone) If they try love, they'll understand
