Nelvana... owns them so don't sue me

Cherry Blossom Afternoon
Sakura placed
the phone back down. It was a sunny afternoon in spring and the card
mistress just
called her best friend. But to her dismay she wasn't home
"Darn!
Tomoyo went out shopping with with Eriol-kun." Sakura said. "And Kero
just went to
the arcade with
Suppi-chan." " I guess I'll go to the park by myself then."
Sakura went
upstairs to her room and changed into something appropiable. She chose a
pink sundress
with a matching blazer with it. She tied her now chin length hair with
pink barretes to
complete her "pink look". She hurriedly went downstairs and got a
book
from the kitchen
table.
"Well at
least, I'll get to read this book without any disturbances." Sakura
thought
She got to the
door and wore 2 inch platform sandals(pink of course) and went out. Thinking
it would be nice
to read the book under a cherry tree over looking the river. Sakura hummed
to herself and
headed for the park.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
A boy with dark brown hair and amber eyes
stared at his surroundings. Behind him was a
Cherry tree with
Cherry Blossoms in full bloom. In front of him was a river and next to it was
another grove of
Cherry trees in full bloom too. With a sketch book and a pencil in hand he sat
down. It was just
one of those serene places at the park that you would want to just sit down and
relax.
Li Syaoran opened his sketch book and began drawing his
surroundings. He felt so peaceful and
relaxed. He just
kept drawing until he felt a fammiliar aura behind him.
He looked up and
saw the once rival, became friend and now secret love looking at him. Her jade
colored eyes
sparkling with admiration.
" Li-kun, you
know. You draw so well." She told him, praise evident in her voice.
"
S-sakura!" Syaoran stammered and felt his cheeks heat. " What are you
doing here?"
" Nothing
really" She explained " I just got bored at home and decided to go at
the park and read
but the place
where you happened to sit is the same place I want to sit too"
Li looked at her
playful jade colored eyes. " god, she's beautiful.." He whispered to
himself and
didn't noticed
Sakura looking at him intentely.
" So... What
I'm saying is do you mind if I sit with you?" She asked him. Immediately snapping
Syaoran out of his
daydream.
" N-no of
course not! I don't mind" He stammered. Quickly making room for her.
Sakura smiled and
gladly took the room he made for her beside him. She opened her book and
began reading. The
story was nice. It was about prince and a princess. Fighting their way to tell
their true
feelings for one another besides all the chaos happening around them. It
reminded her
of herself and
Syaoran, only she wasn't sure how he felt about her. She continued reading.
Different kinds of
emotions displayed on her face.
Syaoran looked at
her. "Kami-sama, she's like an angel." He thought. He watched her
different
display of
emotions on her face. " I guess it's because of what she's reading."
He thought. He
looked at her
again but saw her looking right at him too. Her eyes seemed to bore inside of
him.
Green orbs met
pools of amber as they stayed that way. Watching eachother. Syaoran suddenly
cupped her face in
his hands and stroke her cheek affectionally. The spaces between them are
rapidly lessening.
Sakura looked at Syaoran, slowly closing her eyes. Syaoran closed his eyes
well.
Then they felt it.
Syaoran's lips brushed againsts Sakura's, just a brush. But several
kinds of
emotions flooded
through them as they pulled apart. Both of them looking intentley at
eachother's eyes.
Syaoran placed an
arm around Sakura's waist and held her close to him. He bent his head over
to whisper something at her. His breath
tickling her neck.
" Wo Ai Ni...
Sakura..." He whispered only loud enough for her to hear.
Sakura gasped at
the suddened proclamation of love to her. But she snuggled close to his
warmth and
whispered back.
"Aishiteru...
Syaoran..." She said. Surprising herself because she heard herself say his
name.
Syaoran, also
surprised, hugged her tighter. Never wanting to let go. They stayed like that
until
Sakura fell
asleep, resting her head on Syaoran's shoulder. Syaoran gazed at her lovingly
until
he too fell
asleep.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Eriol and Tomoyo
watched from a distance. Tomoyo holding her ever present video camera.
Recording the
tender scene just moments before. Eriol walked towards the sleeping couple
and gestured Tomoyo
to do the same.
"
Kawaii!" Tomoyo squeeled softly as she picked up the long forgotten
sketching pad, pencil and
book. She stood
up and headed towards the car to start it.
Eriol stood above
the couple and smiled. A soft tender smile of contentment. He didn't want to
wake up the
sleeping couple but he couldn't let them spend the night here. He nudged
Syaoran's leg with his foot. Syaoran woke up and saw
Eriol standing over him.
"Hiragizawa..." He said sleepily. Looking at the grey eyed
boy.
" Ssh!
Sakura-chan is still sleeping." Eriol whispered pointing at a sleeping
figure beside
Syaoran.
The mention of
Sakura was enough to wake Syaoran's sleepy head. He looke towards his left
and saw Sakura
sleeping peacefully. He smiled at her. One of his rare 'real smiles. Eriol
looked
away to give the
couple a few moments of privacy.
He looked at them
again and saw Syaoran carrying Sakura in his arms. Her head rested on his
shoulder, a look of
contentement on her face. Eriol smiled at them before raising a questioning
eyebrow at Syaoran.
"She looks so
peacefull. I didn't want to wake her up." Was all he said.
"Aah..."
Eriol nodded at turned around. Walking towards Tomoyo who was smiling like
crazy
videotaping the
whole scene.
Syaoran walked
towards his friends. Carrying the precious bundle close to his heart. He
thought
of all the mean
things he told her before. But as time progresses, he found himself falling for
her.
And now she was all
his, and he was all hers.
" My beloved
Ying Fa..." He whispered to himself as caught up with Eriol and Tomoyo.
And Now Sakura was
with him and he was with her, Nothing else matters...
~ God did not create the woman from the man's head so that he should ~
command her nor from his feet so that she would be his
slave. But rather
from his side so she would be near his
heart

Author's notes: Like it? I made this coz I was in the mood. It kinda resembles
the Rurouni
Kenshin fic
"Closing the Distance" by Sekihara Tae (I think). Well I kinda got
this thing for Quiet,
Tender stories.
Hmmm....maybe that's why I like Joseph Palmer's stories. (Hey I love anime
romance, practically one of
the only IMPORTANT reasons I like/watch anime, My friend Tasuchinu
and Horiko can vouch for
that) Anyway this is my first fic so please r & r
