Wow you really liked it? That makes me so happy. I love writing my
fanfics so it makes me happy that people actually read it.
I know I'm pretty evil. I don't think I will make this an R. I won't promise anything though cause I said that for Forever in one moment and look I have to make it R.
Well anyway. Enjoy.

Sakura laid on her bed looking up at the ceiling. It was pretty late and she'd need to go to sleep soon. She smiled as she remembered her afternoon and drifted off into a peaceful sleep.
^Flashback^
The gentle breeze flew through her hair as she walked bare foot on the sand waiting for her partner to join her. Her hair tied back in a high pony tail to keep it out of her face. Her eyes held contentment and joy.
She looked up at the night sky and was greeted with the full moon. It shone brightly as she walked on.
She thought about her friends back in Japan. Tomoyo, Eriol, Yamazaki and his lies, Chiharu, Naoko and Rika. Yukito. She smiled at the thought of him. He'd called a few days ago to say he would be coming to stay with them for a while. It would be good to see him again. Yue too.
"Sakura." She turned around to see Xiao Lang behind her. She smiled and walked back towards him. "What were you thinking about?"
Wrapping her arms around his neck she inhaled his scent. The mix of autumn and sandalwood.
"Just everyone. Tomoyo and the girls, the guys and Yukito." She said softly. "How it will be fun to have Yukito staying with us and not having Touya on my back as much."
"That would be good for both of us." He said chuckling. "If I hadn't run past that bus I swear he would have caught up with me."
"He wouldn't have killed you though." She said with a giggle. He'd told her at dinner about the chase. Touya had been determined to catch the Chinese boy and followed him half way home. A bus had been his savior when he'd run past it and lost Touya in the traffic.
"You miss everyone back home?" He asked soothingly as they started to walk down the beach.
"Of course. I will always miss them but I wouldn't change anything for the world." She said kicking her feet in the sand.
"Well the advantage of that is Tomoyo isn't following us around with her video camera and Eriol isn't going around calling me his cute little descendent."
"Why do you hate that so much? He's only teasing you." She said as he wrapped his arms around her waist and walked behind her.
"I don't know. I just hate it when he says it. It's the voice he uses when he says it." He said a little frustrated now. He didn't hate Eriol He still resented him for what he did to Sakura but he couldn't hold that grudge for the rest of his life. Especially when Sakura kept pleading with him to get along with his reincarnated ancestor.
"Well you're right about the camera. I love Tomoyo with all my heart but I don't think I could have handled it. I would have snapped eventually."
They kept walking till they reached the rocks. Sakura lifted her skirt up to her knees and stepped into the cool ocean water. Syaoran watched as she sighed in pleasure as the water hit her skin.
"Enjoying yourself there my Ying Fa?" He called out as she started to walk back. He kept up but stayed a few steps behind to admire her walking.
"Hai. It feels so relaxing." She turned around and smiled at him. He suddenly got a glint of mischief in his eyes and he ran towards her and splashed her with water.
"HOE!" She yelped in surprise as the cold water hit her upper skin. She continued to screech as her boyfriend kept splashing her with water. Unable to avoid the attacks she started to throw water at him.
They were both drenched as Syaoran lunged at her and pulled her into the water. She screamed as he grabbed onto her waist and tickled her relentlessly.
"Xiao Lang dozo, stop. I can't breath." She gasped out as he continued to tickle her.
Grabbing her by her hips Syaoran pulled her to her feet. They continued to laugh and Syaoran picked Sakura up and took her back to the sand.
Sakura couldn't stop giggling as he twirled her around in his arms. She loved it when he acted like this. So care free. Like nothing else mattered. He didn't act like that cold hearted warrior. He acted like a normal teenager who was playing around with his girlfriend.
"Ashiteru." She said and kissed him lightly on the lips. His eyes sparkled at her words and he returned the kiss eagerly. He held onto her protectively.
"Ashiteru cherry blossom." He said softly into her ear. Her body tingled at his tone of voice and she nuzzled her head against his chest. It was then when she realized how soaked they were.
The water clung to their clothes tightly as he set her down on the dryer sand. Sakura started to drain the water from her dress that hugged her body perfectly. Syaoran blushed a little when he saw her and turned around and started walking back to the car. Sakura followed behind him.
"What's wrong?" She said as he continued to walk. He had a slight blush on his face and he tried not to look at her.
"Nothing." He let out as they reached the car. Sakura smiled evilly and pressed herself against his back. She let out a little purr against his ear. (You'd be surprised how many guys like that. My boyfriend goes gaga over it.)
"What's wrong with my little wolf?" She purred into his ear. That made Syaoran shiver. She smiled at his reaction and turned him around so he was facing her. "Making you nervous?"
Syaoran gulped as she stared into her eyes. They sparkled in the moon light and her wet bangs made her look even more feminine.
She could always do this to him. She always knew exactly how to treat him to make him melt. From the simplest touch to the most provocative conversation. She made him feel light headed. Weak. Though he didn't care.
She loved this power she had over him. Loved possessing him like this. She could reduce him to the state of a child and behold his innocence. She wasn't innocent like everyone thought. She still had a tendency to be naive but she'd grown up and now understood her feelings and herself. She knew how to express her wants and her needs.
"Sakura." He groaned as she nuzzled against him again. He loved it when she did this but often had to stop himself from taking it too far.
"It's your own fault Xiao Lang. You threw me in the water. Now you have to deal with the consequences." She teased as she grabbed the keys to the trunk of the car.
She always left a set of clothes in the trunk of his car in case of an emergency or if she was staying over at his house with Meilin and forgot to pack a change of clothes.
Syaoran had done the same. He'd have soccer practice on some weekends and he'd need a quick change of clothes after he trained.
He watched as she took out a set of long black pants and a long sleeve shirt. She slipped the pants on under her dress and then put on a set of sandals. Syaoran grabbed his bag of clothes and took off his wet shirt.
It took then a few more minutes to change because they kept making sure no one was around to see them. Well in reality they were making sure that the other wasn't looking.
Sakura was bolder with her actions but she was still shy around her boyfriend sometimes. She'd seen him shirtless before and that was enough to turn her into a tomato.
"Touya is going to kill me when he sees you. He'll think that something happened." Syaoran said as he got into the car. Sakura followed and they drove back to Sakura's house.
"Well nothing happened. I'll tell him the truth." She said calmly. Touya wouldn't believe it though. He'd be blind with rage that he wouldn't even hear her out. He'd just say that Syaoran put his hands on his Imoto.
They spent the rest of the car ride in silence. There was nothing they could say. The silence wasn't uncomfortable though. It was soothing. Their auras mingled together in that time, creating a serene atmosphere between them.
It took exactly twenty minutes to get back to Sakura's place. The lights were on downstairs and the shadow of a male figure could be seen pacing back and forward in the living room.
"Touya's still up." Sakura mused. They watched as he leaned against the window after hearing the car pull up. He always did this when they went on a date. He'd wait up for her while Kero and Fujitaka went to bed.
Syaoran sighed and got out of the car. He stepped over to Sakura's side of the care and opened the door.
"My lady." He said with an exaggerated bow. Sakura giggled and curtsied when she got up.
"Thank you kind sir." With that she took his hand and they walked to her front door.
"So I'll see you tomorrow at school?" He whispered leaning against the door frame. She nodded with a smile on her face.
"Of course." She kissed him on the lips ever so lightly. "Can I come over tomorrow?"
"Have I ever denied you access to my house before?" He asked as he wrapped his arms tightly around her slim waist. Ignoring the little voice at the back of his mind telling him that Touya was there.
"No." She kissed him again. This kiss was passionate and aggressive. Her arms snaked their way around his neck and she pulled him closer to her.
He obliged without hesitation and completely forgot about Touya or anything else. He could only sense her. He could only smell the cherry blossom scent she gave off from her shampoo. Simply tasted the sweetness of her lips against his own. Feeling only her body pressed against his and only hearing her little moans and sighs as they kissed.
They tried to keep the kiss up as long as they could but two things stopped them. The first was the lack of oxygen. Their lungs were burning for air and they were forced to separate panting.
The second reason they needed to part was the sound of footsteps walking towards the door. Touya had become impatient and had decided to grab his sister and chase the gaki away again.
"I better go. Touya might have a gun on him." Syaoran said seriously. He planted a number of goodbye kisses on Sakura's lips and started to walk towards his car.
Sakura waved to him until he was out of sight and then proceeded to enter her house to face her enraged brother.
"You know what time it is?" He said evenly.
"Ten thirty." She said calmly. "I got home half an hour before curfew. Goodnight Onii-chan." (She's seventeen. I think eleven is a pretty good time to get home on a weekend )
^End of flashback^
Sakura smiled in her sleep. Her dreams were always memories of her day with her love. Nightmares had become a thing of the past these days.
***
~Sakura~
I'm so nervous. I got three days left. Three days till the mock weddings and family day. Tomoyo still hasn't sent the dress and I'm afraid it won't get here in time.
I spoke to Li-sama and she said I could use the phoenix head piece for my outfit. She's so nice to me and the elders aren't harsh to me anymore. I think Tomoyo is right. It might be a sign for the future.
I'm getting the new report tomorrow. It will tell me what's wrong with me. Everyone seems to know what's going on except for me and Xiao Lang. Some of my friends in the class aren't too happy with their condition right now.
Miki is upset cause she got a pay cut so they won't be able to get that condo she wanted. She said they had to fix their finances. They are healthy though. I'm still surprised she's having a Greek wedding. She told me they're going to bring plates and everything so we can break them.
Ah Kum is another friend of mine. She's going to have the Hawaiian wedding. I'm apparently going to participate in that. I don't know how though. She said I just needed to be there in the dress she gave me. It's pure white. Apparently it's part of the tradition.
I'm still so nervous. What f I make a complete fool out of myself in front of my family and his. I don't think I could face anyone if I did. Especially Xiao Lang.
I really do hope I don't do anything stupid.
***
"I'M WHAT?" Screeched an auburn haired girl as she looked over her health records. She had gotten to class early because the boys were completing a test for gym. The girls would be alone for another few minutes.
"Calm down Sakura." Ah Kum said. The girls were all looking through their personal records. Some were pleased others weren't. Sakura was just in shock.
"How could this have happened?" She cried out. The girls all giggled.
"Sakura you know how a baby is made." Miki said. Sakura rolled her eyes at her friends and looked at her paper.
"I know that. Though why did the teacher give me this. I'm already pregnant before my wedding?"
"She must have a very distorted sense of humor." Lien said from behind the group.
"Yeah she does. Oh how will Xiao Lang react to this? We didn't plan for this to happen."
"That's the whole idea of this assignment Sakura. I mean it does happen in real life. Just remember we're all going to have families eventually. Just think of this as a head start."
Sakura read over her report again.
Kinomoto Sakura
Age: 20
Allergies: None.
Illnesses: None.
Current state: second month of pregnancy.
Infant condition: Developing normally with no signs of illnesses.
Stress Level: Medium.
Comments: With the infant's arrival you now have a choice with what you want to do. You may decide to keep the child or to take other measures. If you decide to keep the child you will need to research pregnancies and complete separate forms.
"Sakura what are you going to do?" Lien asked. They'd read through it and now they were all looking at her curiously. She could either keep it or get rid of it. Sakura's mind was made up instantly.
"I'm going to keep it." She said firmly. "I mean it may be an assignment but it's still my child. I couldn't get rid of it."
"When are you going to tell Li?" Ah Kum asked. Sakura turned around and sighed.
"I don't know. I have to tell him soon though." She sighed again and sat down on her seat. Things had just gotten a lot more complicated.
"Don't worry Sakura. You can tell Li when he gets here." Miki said.
"Tell me what?" The girls snapped their heads up to see their partners looking at them. Li was leading the group.
"Oh Xiao Lang." Sakura exclaimed nervously. He stared at her for a minute perplexed. She was acting strangely.
"Sakura?" He stepped up to her with concern in his eyes. "What's wrong Ying Fa?"
"Well you see. You better sit down for this." She said hastily. The others moved away to let the couple talk.
"Sakura just tell me." He said refusing to sit down. "What's the matter?"
"Well I know what's wrong with me." She said softly. She had gotten off her chair and walked around it to face her boyfriend.
"What do you have?" He was concerned. Assessment it may be but if it meant Sakura had to pretend to have some disease he'd go straight to his teacher. "Is it serious?"
"Well I have something. It will get better though." She said calmly. She was way past nervous.
"Sakura just tell me already."
"I'm pregnant." She whispered. He couldn't hear her properly.
"What?"
"Xiao Lang, we're going to have a baby." She said a little louder. She closed her eyes for a moment to await his reaction. All she heard was a loud thump.
She opened her eyes and looked at the floor. Her strong warrior was sprawled out on the floor with his leg twitching ever so slightly. His eyes held shock and his mouth was moving but no sound came out.
Sakura sweatdroped and went to his side. Everyone had gone to see what had occurred.
"He took it well." Miki joked as she watched Sakura place her boyfriend's head on her lap. She caressed his forehead gently and tried to get him out of his gaze.
"What happened to him?" Lim asked. He pushed his glasses up.
"Sakura and Li have a bun in the oven.' Ah Kum said in a sing song voice. The girls started to giggle and the boys couldn't help but snicker.
"Nice going Li." Kwan said. (I really can't be bothered thinking up names for the guys so I'm just gonna call them by their last names.)
"Hu?" Syaoran had just snapped out of his trance and looked up at all his classmates looking at him. "What I do?"
"You knocked Sakura up. Good on you." Fu said teasingly. He'd been the first to figure it out. He hadn't wanted to tell the couple cause it wasn't his place. Besides Xiao Lang's reaction was priceless.
"Oh Kami." He groaned as he got up. Sakura stayed quiet the entire time. She wanted to keep it but maybe he didn't.
"You ok?" She asked him when everyone went to their seats. The teacher had just walked into the room.
"Yeah. It was just a shock." He whispered as the teacher started to explain the background behind their statistics.
"The school has a new computer system. Your statistics are chosen randomly by the computer to match skills and will challenge your abilities as young adults."
Everyone listened to her speak. So their statistics were being chosen at random. That explained a lot.
"We're very lucky to have all this new equipment. Thanks to the fund raising and contribution to the school over the year. After class any student that has a new status or health problem according to their health records come see me before lunch."
The class started to work on their assignment. Some worked out their finances while others practiced their mock wedding. Sakura and Syaoran were discussing their new challenge.
"Do you want to keep it?" Syaoran asked her softly. Sakura nodded her head slowly and looked up at him expecting to see a scowl or a look of regret. What she saw was a small smile playing on his lips. "Good."
"You're not mad?" She asked slowly. He shook his head and embraced her tightly. Sakura sighed in relief. "We better practice for the wedding. I mean I'd hate to mess it up."
They spent the rest of the lesson practicing their wedding and helping their friend with theirs. Sakura was going to be maid of honor for Ah Kum. Syaoran would help Lem with his wedding.
The bell ran announcing the end of the lesson. The students all grabbed their things and walked out for lunch. Only a few stayed behind to talk with the teacher.
The students who had an illness were spoken to first. Luckily none was life threatening. They got their medical care set and they left too. Now only Sakura and Syaoran were left in the room.
"Miss Kinomoto. Can I see your medical records?" The teacher said. Sakura handed her the folder and the teacher looked through it.
"Well aren't you lucky. You are the first to try out the family equipment." The teacher said happily. "You have to be very careful with it though. It's very expensive."
"What do I have to do?" Sakura asked. Syaoran stood behind her listening intently.
"First hold out your arm." She did so and the teacher snapped something that looked like a watch on her arm. "This is to monitor your pregnancy. It will tell you when you're due. So to speak. When the alarm goes off you will get the next part of the kit."
"Anything else I have to do?" she asked looking at the watch.
"You'll need to research pregnancies and write down anything that may happen during this time. You'll understand as you read through the kit."
With that she handed Sakura a large box and they left for lunch.
***
"So who do we tell first?" Syaoran said as he carried the box. They were walking to his car after the final bell had rung.
"I don't know. Who will take it better?" Sakura said as she opened the car for him. They'd looked though the box during lunch and were shocked at how realistic everything would be.
They had to attend a breathing class that the teacher had assigned them. She'd have to write down any mood change she felt of any events that happened in her life that made her feel different.
The watch would monitor her body temperature. Mood swings. (It's possible to monitor your aura because it's an electronic field. So you can monitor your moods.)
It was sensitive to any sudden movement such as falling down or being hit.
"I think your family might be easier. I mean Touya will have to understand that its not real My family will have a field day."
"I can imagine your sisters." She giggled. He groaned at that as they exited the school gates.
(I'm making most of this up ok. I've done this assignment in sixth grade and it is a lot simpler but I thought I'd make it interesting.)
"So we're going to be parents." He said as they went on the main road to Sakura's house.
"Yeah. Oh Kami. Yukito is coming today." She exclaimed. She'd completely forgot that Touya was brining him from the airport.
'Well just one more person to tell. Plus I think it will sooth your brother's nerves.' Syaoran said in relief. Yukito could always calm Touya down. "At least I won't die for getting you pregnant."
Sakura started to giggle uncontrollably which confused the warrior immensely.
"I'm sorry for laughing it's just the way you said it. It was as if you really did get me pregnant." She kept laughing and Syaoran started to blush.
Sakura continued to giggle and laugh most of the way home and Syaoran continued to blush. She teased him the entire way home. He didn't mind it just bought on things that he didn't want to talk about just yet.
They reached Sakura's house and Syaoran parked in front of a large company care. It was a four wheel drive.
'Touya must have borrowed it to pick up Yukito." Sakura reasoned as they got their stuff out. She carried her bag and Syaoran carried the box.
It took Sakura a few minutes to find her keys but when she opened her door she dropped everything in her hands.
"Sakura what…" Syaoran trailed off when he saw who was sitting in Sakura's living room.
Sitting on one of the small couches was Yukito happily eating with Kero and Spinel. On the large sofa were Tomoyo and Eriol. Tomoyo as always was holding her trusty camera.
Across from them were Touya and Nakuru who was attached to his arm. Sakura's eyes were wide as were Syaoran's. He almost dropped the box when he was everyone.
"SAKURA-CHAN!" Tomoyo exclaimed as she raced over to her best friends. Sakura embraced her and the two girls started to babble immediately about everything that had happened.
Syaoran set the box down on the table and greeted everyone. Touya was too busy trying to get away from Nakuru that he forgot to glare at him.
"What are you doing here anyway?" He asked Eriol. The blue haired teen smiled innocently and held out a clothes bag.
"Tomoyo wanted to give Sakura her dress personally. Besides we have holidays."
They talked for a while. Well the girls talked and so did Eriol. Syaoran stayed quiet and Touya couldn't get a word in because Nakuru kept shoving food into his mouth.
"Hey Sakura what's in the box?" Yukito finally asked. Sakura and Syaoran both blushed.
"Here goes nothing." She whispered. "Well you see I'm pregnant."
Touya almost chocked on the food he was eating. Everyone else looked at Sakura then at Syaoran. Then back at Sakura.
"YOU TOUCHED MY SISTER? YOU GOT HER PREGNANT? YOU BAKA I"LL KILL YOU." Touya yelled getting up off his seat and attacking Syaoran.
"No, no. I'm not really pregnant. The assignment. It says I'm pregnant." She quickly explained. Everyone sighed in relief. Especially Touya who was suffocating Syaoran.
She explained everything that the teacher had said. She showed them all the things the kit bought. It had research papers for both of them to do. The manuals. The lot.
"What kind of school gives you assignment like these?" Touya said. He really hated the school now. His baby sister would technically have a baby of her own soon.
"I don't know but it's all so KAWAII." Tomoyo exclaimed. "You're getting married and you're going to have a baby Sakura."
Tomoyo hugged Sakura and they started to twirl around the room. This made Sakura dizzy and made the watch go off warning her that she was doing something that could be dangerous to her baby.
"Wow. That is high tech." Tomoyo commented. Sakura nodded and turned off the alarm. She'd need to be careful with what she did now.
They spent the rest of the afternoon talking. Tomoyo insisted on fitting Sakura's kimono in her room without Syaoran seeing it. Saying it was bad luck to see the bride's dress before the wedding.
***
"You're what?" Fan Ran screeched as Syaoran explained the situation. He'd just gotten home after spending the afternoon at his girlfriend's house.
"I'm going to be a dad." He hadn't told them it was for the assignment so everyone just assumed.
Everyone was silent. No one knew how to react. His sisters were in between screaming for joy and scolding. His mother was becoming very pale. Meilin seemed to be the only calm one there. She'd spoken to Sakura at lunch and she'd told her about her new 'condition.'
The elders looked at him as if he'd just announced he was going to blow up the planet.
Syaoran was enjoying himself immensely. He was going to pay them back for all the teasing and nagging they'd given him over the years. To have a child outside of marriage was a very serious and delicate matter in the clan.
"Xiao Lang. I'm assuming Sakura is the mother." Yelen said. He raised an eyebrow and nodded.
"When did you well find out?" Fuutie asked. She looked at her brother cautiously. He looked way too calm about this.
"Today in class. She told me we're going to have a baby." He said. 'Now to drop the bomb shell.'
"She should be due in the next three weeks." He said smugly. Meilin couldn't hold back the laughter. He'd acted so serious about the whole thing that it was hard not to believe him.
"THREE WEEKS?" His sisters yelled. Everyone was extremely shocked. The last time anyone heard it took a lot longer to have a baby.
"Yeah. The teacher said it would be the equivalent of the nine months of her pregnancy." He said. Everyone fell anime style at hearing him. They'd honestly thought that Xiao Lang and the card mistress had done something improper.
"You didn't think I got Sakura pregnant for real did you? Her brother would kill me." He said seriously. Touya had almost killed him.
"No of course not Xiao Lang. We know you have better judgment than that." Yelen lied. There was no need to put wood to this fire.
"Little brother is going to have a baby." The girls squealed. They got over the shock very easily. This was going to be exciting.
"Why did I tell you?" He sighed. His sisters had proceeded to babble and squeal about having a little nephew or niece. About how it would look and what they would name it. In the next five minutes they come up with at least ten names.
"Do you know if it's a girl of a boy?" Fei Mei asked.
"No. We only found out today. How can we know what it is?" Syaoran was starting to get annoyed with his sisters. Meilin kept laughing and watched as they interrogated him about the child.
It was strange though. The computer had thought this would be one of the challenges in the relationship. Not finances not health. A child.
"This is going to be a very interesting term." Meilin whispered to herself. Her cousin was going to have his hands full.

Well anyway. Enjoy.

Sakura laid on her bed looking up at the ceiling. It was pretty late and she'd need to go to sleep soon. She smiled as she remembered her afternoon and drifted off into a peaceful sleep.
^Flashback^
The gentle breeze flew through her hair as she walked bare foot on the sand waiting for her partner to join her. Her hair tied back in a high pony tail to keep it out of her face. Her eyes held contentment and joy.
She looked up at the night sky and was greeted with the full moon. It shone brightly as she walked on.
She thought about her friends back in Japan. Tomoyo, Eriol, Yamazaki and his lies, Chiharu, Naoko and Rika. Yukito. She smiled at the thought of him. He'd called a few days ago to say he would be coming to stay with them for a while. It would be good to see him again. Yue too.
"Sakura." She turned around to see Xiao Lang behind her. She smiled and walked back towards him. "What were you thinking about?"
Wrapping her arms around his neck she inhaled his scent. The mix of autumn and sandalwood.
"Just everyone. Tomoyo and the girls, the guys and Yukito." She said softly. "How it will be fun to have Yukito staying with us and not having Touya on my back as much."
"That would be good for both of us." He said chuckling. "If I hadn't run past that bus I swear he would have caught up with me."
"He wouldn't have killed you though." She said with a giggle. He'd told her at dinner about the chase. Touya had been determined to catch the Chinese boy and followed him half way home. A bus had been his savior when he'd run past it and lost Touya in the traffic.
"You miss everyone back home?" He asked soothingly as they started to walk down the beach.
"Of course. I will always miss them but I wouldn't change anything for the world." She said kicking her feet in the sand.
"Well the advantage of that is Tomoyo isn't following us around with her video camera and Eriol isn't going around calling me his cute little descendent."
"Why do you hate that so much? He's only teasing you." She said as he wrapped his arms around her waist and walked behind her.
"I don't know. I just hate it when he says it. It's the voice he uses when he says it." He said a little frustrated now. He didn't hate Eriol He still resented him for what he did to Sakura but he couldn't hold that grudge for the rest of his life. Especially when Sakura kept pleading with him to get along with his reincarnated ancestor.
"Well you're right about the camera. I love Tomoyo with all my heart but I don't think I could have handled it. I would have snapped eventually."
They kept walking till they reached the rocks. Sakura lifted her skirt up to her knees and stepped into the cool ocean water. Syaoran watched as she sighed in pleasure as the water hit her skin.
"Enjoying yourself there my Ying Fa?" He called out as she started to walk back. He kept up but stayed a few steps behind to admire her walking.
"Hai. It feels so relaxing." She turned around and smiled at him. He suddenly got a glint of mischief in his eyes and he ran towards her and splashed her with water.
"HOE!" She yelped in surprise as the cold water hit her upper skin. She continued to screech as her boyfriend kept splashing her with water. Unable to avoid the attacks she started to throw water at him.
They were both drenched as Syaoran lunged at her and pulled her into the water. She screamed as he grabbed onto her waist and tickled her relentlessly.
"Xiao Lang dozo, stop. I can't breath." She gasped out as he continued to tickle her.
Grabbing her by her hips Syaoran pulled her to her feet. They continued to laugh and Syaoran picked Sakura up and took her back to the sand.
Sakura couldn't stop giggling as he twirled her around in his arms. She loved it when he acted like this. So care free. Like nothing else mattered. He didn't act like that cold hearted warrior. He acted like a normal teenager who was playing around with his girlfriend.
"Ashiteru." She said and kissed him lightly on the lips. His eyes sparkled at her words and he returned the kiss eagerly. He held onto her protectively.
"Ashiteru cherry blossom." He said softly into her ear. Her body tingled at his tone of voice and she nuzzled her head against his chest. It was then when she realized how soaked they were.
The water clung to their clothes tightly as he set her down on the dryer sand. Sakura started to drain the water from her dress that hugged her body perfectly. Syaoran blushed a little when he saw her and turned around and started walking back to the car. Sakura followed behind him.
"What's wrong?" She said as he continued to walk. He had a slight blush on his face and he tried not to look at her.
"Nothing." He let out as they reached the car. Sakura smiled evilly and pressed herself against his back. She let out a little purr against his ear. (You'd be surprised how many guys like that. My boyfriend goes gaga over it.)
"What's wrong with my little wolf?" She purred into his ear. That made Syaoran shiver. She smiled at his reaction and turned him around so he was facing her. "Making you nervous?"
Syaoran gulped as she stared into her eyes. They sparkled in the moon light and her wet bangs made her look even more feminine.
She could always do this to him. She always knew exactly how to treat him to make him melt. From the simplest touch to the most provocative conversation. She made him feel light headed. Weak. Though he didn't care.
She loved this power she had over him. Loved possessing him like this. She could reduce him to the state of a child and behold his innocence. She wasn't innocent like everyone thought. She still had a tendency to be naive but she'd grown up and now understood her feelings and herself. She knew how to express her wants and her needs.
"Sakura." He groaned as she nuzzled against him again. He loved it when she did this but often had to stop himself from taking it too far.
"It's your own fault Xiao Lang. You threw me in the water. Now you have to deal with the consequences." She teased as she grabbed the keys to the trunk of the car.
She always left a set of clothes in the trunk of his car in case of an emergency or if she was staying over at his house with Meilin and forgot to pack a change of clothes.
Syaoran had done the same. He'd have soccer practice on some weekends and he'd need a quick change of clothes after he trained.
He watched as she took out a set of long black pants and a long sleeve shirt. She slipped the pants on under her dress and then put on a set of sandals. Syaoran grabbed his bag of clothes and took off his wet shirt.
It took then a few more minutes to change because they kept making sure no one was around to see them. Well in reality they were making sure that the other wasn't looking.
Sakura was bolder with her actions but she was still shy around her boyfriend sometimes. She'd seen him shirtless before and that was enough to turn her into a tomato.
"Touya is going to kill me when he sees you. He'll think that something happened." Syaoran said as he got into the car. Sakura followed and they drove back to Sakura's house.
"Well nothing happened. I'll tell him the truth." She said calmly. Touya wouldn't believe it though. He'd be blind with rage that he wouldn't even hear her out. He'd just say that Syaoran put his hands on his Imoto.
They spent the rest of the car ride in silence. There was nothing they could say. The silence wasn't uncomfortable though. It was soothing. Their auras mingled together in that time, creating a serene atmosphere between them.
It took exactly twenty minutes to get back to Sakura's place. The lights were on downstairs and the shadow of a male figure could be seen pacing back and forward in the living room.
"Touya's still up." Sakura mused. They watched as he leaned against the window after hearing the car pull up. He always did this when they went on a date. He'd wait up for her while Kero and Fujitaka went to bed.
Syaoran sighed and got out of the car. He stepped over to Sakura's side of the care and opened the door.
"My lady." He said with an exaggerated bow. Sakura giggled and curtsied when she got up.
"Thank you kind sir." With that she took his hand and they walked to her front door.
"So I'll see you tomorrow at school?" He whispered leaning against the door frame. She nodded with a smile on her face.
"Of course." She kissed him on the lips ever so lightly. "Can I come over tomorrow?"
"Have I ever denied you access to my house before?" He asked as he wrapped his arms tightly around her slim waist. Ignoring the little voice at the back of his mind telling him that Touya was there.
"No." She kissed him again. This kiss was passionate and aggressive. Her arms snaked their way around his neck and she pulled him closer to her.
He obliged without hesitation and completely forgot about Touya or anything else. He could only sense her. He could only smell the cherry blossom scent she gave off from her shampoo. Simply tasted the sweetness of her lips against his own. Feeling only her body pressed against his and only hearing her little moans and sighs as they kissed.
They tried to keep the kiss up as long as they could but two things stopped them. The first was the lack of oxygen. Their lungs were burning for air and they were forced to separate panting.
The second reason they needed to part was the sound of footsteps walking towards the door. Touya had become impatient and had decided to grab his sister and chase the gaki away again.
"I better go. Touya might have a gun on him." Syaoran said seriously. He planted a number of goodbye kisses on Sakura's lips and started to walk towards his car.
Sakura waved to him until he was out of sight and then proceeded to enter her house to face her enraged brother.
"You know what time it is?" He said evenly.
"Ten thirty." She said calmly. "I got home half an hour before curfew. Goodnight Onii-chan." (She's seventeen. I think eleven is a pretty good time to get home on a weekend )
^End of flashback^
Sakura smiled in her sleep. Her dreams were always memories of her day with her love. Nightmares had become a thing of the past these days.

~Sakura~
I'm so nervous. I got three days left. Three days till the mock weddings and family day. Tomoyo still hasn't sent the dress and I'm afraid it won't get here in time.
I spoke to Li-sama and she said I could use the phoenix head piece for my outfit. She's so nice to me and the elders aren't harsh to me anymore. I think Tomoyo is right. It might be a sign for the future.
I'm getting the new report tomorrow. It will tell me what's wrong with me. Everyone seems to know what's going on except for me and Xiao Lang. Some of my friends in the class aren't too happy with their condition right now.
Miki is upset cause she got a pay cut so they won't be able to get that condo she wanted. She said they had to fix their finances. They are healthy though. I'm still surprised she's having a Greek wedding. She told me they're going to bring plates and everything so we can break them.
Ah Kum is another friend of mine. She's going to have the Hawaiian wedding. I'm apparently going to participate in that. I don't know how though. She said I just needed to be there in the dress she gave me. It's pure white. Apparently it's part of the tradition.
I'm still so nervous. What f I make a complete fool out of myself in front of my family and his. I don't think I could face anyone if I did. Especially Xiao Lang.
I really do hope I don't do anything stupid.
***
"I'M WHAT?" Screeched an auburn haired girl as she looked over her health records. She had gotten to class early because the boys were completing a test for gym. The girls would be alone for another few minutes.
"Calm down Sakura." Ah Kum said. The girls were all looking through their personal records. Some were pleased others weren't. Sakura was just in shock.
"How could this have happened?" She cried out. The girls all giggled.
"Sakura you know how a baby is made." Miki said. Sakura rolled her eyes at her friends and looked at her paper.
"I know that. Though why did the teacher give me this. I'm already pregnant before my wedding?"
"She must have a very distorted sense of humor." Lien said from behind the group.
"Yeah she does. Oh how will Xiao Lang react to this? We didn't plan for this to happen."
"That's the whole idea of this assignment Sakura. I mean it does happen in real life. Just remember we're all going to have families eventually. Just think of this as a head start."
Sakura read over her report again.
Kinomoto Sakura
Age: 20
Allergies: None.
Illnesses: None.
Current state: second month of pregnancy.
Infant condition: Developing normally with no signs of illnesses.
Stress Level: Medium.
Comments: With the infant's arrival you now have a choice with what you want to do. You may decide to keep the child or to take other measures. If you decide to keep the child you will need to research pregnancies and complete separate forms.
"Sakura what are you going to do?" Lien asked. They'd read through it and now they were all looking at her curiously. She could either keep it or get rid of it. Sakura's mind was made up instantly.
"I'm going to keep it." She said firmly. "I mean it may be an assignment but it's still my child. I couldn't get rid of it."
"When are you going to tell Li?" Ah Kum asked. Sakura turned around and sighed.
"I don't know. I have to tell him soon though." She sighed again and sat down on her seat. Things had just gotten a lot more complicated.
"Don't worry Sakura. You can tell Li when he gets here." Miki said.
"Tell me what?" The girls snapped their heads up to see their partners looking at them. Li was leading the group.
"Oh Xiao Lang." Sakura exclaimed nervously. He stared at her for a minute perplexed. She was acting strangely.
"Sakura?" He stepped up to her with concern in his eyes. "What's wrong Ying Fa?"
"Well you see. You better sit down for this." She said hastily. The others moved away to let the couple talk.
"Sakura just tell me." He said refusing to sit down. "What's the matter?"
"Well I know what's wrong with me." She said softly. She had gotten off her chair and walked around it to face her boyfriend.
"What do you have?" He was concerned. Assessment it may be but if it meant Sakura had to pretend to have some disease he'd go straight to his teacher. "Is it serious?"
"Well I have something. It will get better though." She said calmly. She was way past nervous.
"Sakura just tell me already."
"I'm pregnant." She whispered. He couldn't hear her properly.
"What?"
"Xiao Lang, we're going to have a baby." She said a little louder. She closed her eyes for a moment to await his reaction. All she heard was a loud thump.
She opened her eyes and looked at the floor. Her strong warrior was sprawled out on the floor with his leg twitching ever so slightly. His eyes held shock and his mouth was moving but no sound came out.
Sakura sweatdroped and went to his side. Everyone had gone to see what had occurred.
"He took it well." Miki joked as she watched Sakura place her boyfriend's head on her lap. She caressed his forehead gently and tried to get him out of his gaze.
"What happened to him?" Lim asked. He pushed his glasses up.
"Sakura and Li have a bun in the oven.' Ah Kum said in a sing song voice. The girls started to giggle and the boys couldn't help but snicker.
"Nice going Li." Kwan said. (I really can't be bothered thinking up names for the guys so I'm just gonna call them by their last names.)
"Hu?" Syaoran had just snapped out of his trance and looked up at all his classmates looking at him. "What I do?"
"You knocked Sakura up. Good on you." Fu said teasingly. He'd been the first to figure it out. He hadn't wanted to tell the couple cause it wasn't his place. Besides Xiao Lang's reaction was priceless.
"Oh Kami." He groaned as he got up. Sakura stayed quiet the entire time. She wanted to keep it but maybe he didn't.
"You ok?" She asked him when everyone went to their seats. The teacher had just walked into the room.
"Yeah. It was just a shock." He whispered as the teacher started to explain the background behind their statistics.
"The school has a new computer system. Your statistics are chosen randomly by the computer to match skills and will challenge your abilities as young adults."
Everyone listened to her speak. So their statistics were being chosen at random. That explained a lot.
"We're very lucky to have all this new equipment. Thanks to the fund raising and contribution to the school over the year. After class any student that has a new status or health problem according to their health records come see me before lunch."
The class started to work on their assignment. Some worked out their finances while others practiced their mock wedding. Sakura and Syaoran were discussing their new challenge.
"Do you want to keep it?" Syaoran asked her softly. Sakura nodded her head slowly and looked up at him expecting to see a scowl or a look of regret. What she saw was a small smile playing on his lips. "Good."
"You're not mad?" She asked slowly. He shook his head and embraced her tightly. Sakura sighed in relief. "We better practice for the wedding. I mean I'd hate to mess it up."
They spent the rest of the lesson practicing their wedding and helping their friend with theirs. Sakura was going to be maid of honor for Ah Kum. Syaoran would help Lem with his wedding.
The bell ran announcing the end of the lesson. The students all grabbed their things and walked out for lunch. Only a few stayed behind to talk with the teacher.
The students who had an illness were spoken to first. Luckily none was life threatening. They got their medical care set and they left too. Now only Sakura and Syaoran were left in the room.
"Miss Kinomoto. Can I see your medical records?" The teacher said. Sakura handed her the folder and the teacher looked through it.
"Well aren't you lucky. You are the first to try out the family equipment." The teacher said happily. "You have to be very careful with it though. It's very expensive."
"What do I have to do?" Sakura asked. Syaoran stood behind her listening intently.
"First hold out your arm." She did so and the teacher snapped something that looked like a watch on her arm. "This is to monitor your pregnancy. It will tell you when you're due. So to speak. When the alarm goes off you will get the next part of the kit."
"Anything else I have to do?" she asked looking at the watch.
"You'll need to research pregnancies and write down anything that may happen during this time. You'll understand as you read through the kit."
With that she handed Sakura a large box and they left for lunch.
***
"So who do we tell first?" Syaoran said as he carried the box. They were walking to his car after the final bell had rung.
"I don't know. Who will take it better?" Sakura said as she opened the car for him. They'd looked though the box during lunch and were shocked at how realistic everything would be.
They had to attend a breathing class that the teacher had assigned them. She'd have to write down any mood change she felt of any events that happened in her life that made her feel different.
The watch would monitor her body temperature. Mood swings. (It's possible to monitor your aura because it's an electronic field. So you can monitor your moods.)
It was sensitive to any sudden movement such as falling down or being hit.
"I think your family might be easier. I mean Touya will have to understand that its not real My family will have a field day."
"I can imagine your sisters." She giggled. He groaned at that as they exited the school gates.
(I'm making most of this up ok. I've done this assignment in sixth grade and it is a lot simpler but I thought I'd make it interesting.)
"So we're going to be parents." He said as they went on the main road to Sakura's house.
"Yeah. Oh Kami. Yukito is coming today." She exclaimed. She'd completely forgot that Touya was brining him from the airport.
'Well just one more person to tell. Plus I think it will sooth your brother's nerves.' Syaoran said in relief. Yukito could always calm Touya down. "At least I won't die for getting you pregnant."
Sakura started to giggle uncontrollably which confused the warrior immensely.
"I'm sorry for laughing it's just the way you said it. It was as if you really did get me pregnant." She kept laughing and Syaoran started to blush.
Sakura continued to giggle and laugh most of the way home and Syaoran continued to blush. She teased him the entire way home. He didn't mind it just bought on things that he didn't want to talk about just yet.
They reached Sakura's house and Syaoran parked in front of a large company care. It was a four wheel drive.
'Touya must have borrowed it to pick up Yukito." Sakura reasoned as they got their stuff out. She carried her bag and Syaoran carried the box.
It took Sakura a few minutes to find her keys but when she opened her door she dropped everything in her hands.
"Sakura what…" Syaoran trailed off when he saw who was sitting in Sakura's living room.
Sitting on one of the small couches was Yukito happily eating with Kero and Spinel. On the large sofa were Tomoyo and Eriol. Tomoyo as always was holding her trusty camera.
Across from them were Touya and Nakuru who was attached to his arm. Sakura's eyes were wide as were Syaoran's. He almost dropped the box when he was everyone.
"SAKURA-CHAN!" Tomoyo exclaimed as she raced over to her best friends. Sakura embraced her and the two girls started to babble immediately about everything that had happened.
Syaoran set the box down on the table and greeted everyone. Touya was too busy trying to get away from Nakuru that he forgot to glare at him.
"What are you doing here anyway?" He asked Eriol. The blue haired teen smiled innocently and held out a clothes bag.
"Tomoyo wanted to give Sakura her dress personally. Besides we have holidays."
They talked for a while. Well the girls talked and so did Eriol. Syaoran stayed quiet and Touya couldn't get a word in because Nakuru kept shoving food into his mouth.
"Hey Sakura what's in the box?" Yukito finally asked. Sakura and Syaoran both blushed.
"Here goes nothing." She whispered. "Well you see I'm pregnant."
Touya almost chocked on the food he was eating. Everyone else looked at Sakura then at Syaoran. Then back at Sakura.
"YOU TOUCHED MY SISTER? YOU GOT HER PREGNANT? YOU BAKA I"LL KILL YOU." Touya yelled getting up off his seat and attacking Syaoran.
"No, no. I'm not really pregnant. The assignment. It says I'm pregnant." She quickly explained. Everyone sighed in relief. Especially Touya who was suffocating Syaoran.
She explained everything that the teacher had said. She showed them all the things the kit bought. It had research papers for both of them to do. The manuals. The lot.
"What kind of school gives you assignment like these?" Touya said. He really hated the school now. His baby sister would technically have a baby of her own soon.
"I don't know but it's all so KAWAII." Tomoyo exclaimed. "You're getting married and you're going to have a baby Sakura."
Tomoyo hugged Sakura and they started to twirl around the room. This made Sakura dizzy and made the watch go off warning her that she was doing something that could be dangerous to her baby.
"Wow. That is high tech." Tomoyo commented. Sakura nodded and turned off the alarm. She'd need to be careful with what she did now.
They spent the rest of the afternoon talking. Tomoyo insisted on fitting Sakura's kimono in her room without Syaoran seeing it. Saying it was bad luck to see the bride's dress before the wedding.
***
"You're what?" Fan Ran screeched as Syaoran explained the situation. He'd just gotten home after spending the afternoon at his girlfriend's house.
"I'm going to be a dad." He hadn't told them it was for the assignment so everyone just assumed.
Everyone was silent. No one knew how to react. His sisters were in between screaming for joy and scolding. His mother was becoming very pale. Meilin seemed to be the only calm one there. She'd spoken to Sakura at lunch and she'd told her about her new 'condition.'
The elders looked at him as if he'd just announced he was going to blow up the planet.
Syaoran was enjoying himself immensely. He was going to pay them back for all the teasing and nagging they'd given him over the years. To have a child outside of marriage was a very serious and delicate matter in the clan.
"Xiao Lang. I'm assuming Sakura is the mother." Yelen said. He raised an eyebrow and nodded.
"When did you well find out?" Fuutie asked. She looked at her brother cautiously. He looked way too calm about this.
"Today in class. She told me we're going to have a baby." He said. 'Now to drop the bomb shell.'
"She should be due in the next three weeks." He said smugly. Meilin couldn't hold back the laughter. He'd acted so serious about the whole thing that it was hard not to believe him.
"THREE WEEKS?" His sisters yelled. Everyone was extremely shocked. The last time anyone heard it took a lot longer to have a baby.
"Yeah. The teacher said it would be the equivalent of the nine months of her pregnancy." He said. Everyone fell anime style at hearing him. They'd honestly thought that Xiao Lang and the card mistress had done something improper.
"You didn't think I got Sakura pregnant for real did you? Her brother would kill me." He said seriously. Touya had almost killed him.
"No of course not Xiao Lang. We know you have better judgment than that." Yelen lied. There was no need to put wood to this fire.
"Little brother is going to have a baby." The girls squealed. They got over the shock very easily. This was going to be exciting.
"Why did I tell you?" He sighed. His sisters had proceeded to babble and squeal about having a little nephew or niece. About how it would look and what they would name it. In the next five minutes they come up with at least ten names.
"Do you know if it's a girl of a boy?" Fei Mei asked.
"No. We only found out today. How can we know what it is?" Syaoran was starting to get annoyed with his sisters. Meilin kept laughing and watched as they interrogated him about the child.
It was strange though. The computer had thought this would be one of the challenges in the relationship. Not finances not health. A child.
"This is going to be a very interesting term." Meilin whispered to herself. Her cousin was going to have his hands full.
