To Catch Up with You

By: Sakura1301

Ch. 8 Fair Fun!

The Teacups twirled around and around and around. When the ride was over, everyone had gone all swirly eyed. Ooda looked like one of those stuffed doll prizes so no one thought anything of him. So he was safe as long as he didn't talk. Everyone sat down at a table til they felt ready to go on to the next ride. If they didn't wait, they would of bust. And I mean BUST! After they were settled, they headed for a ride that Li had chose. As long as it wasn't a Haunted House. Again. He agreed. He also had another trick up his sleeve.

"Um...S-Syaoran?" "Yeah?" "Are y-you sure you want t-to go on the r-rollercoaster?" Sakura was having a VERY hard time trying to talk. Li grinned. Again. "Yeah! I really need to catch some air! Your not...scared, are you?" He knew what he was doing. If he just got Sakura to think he was challenging her, then...SCORE! He'd have her in the bag! "SCARED!?" She shrieked. "ARE YOU CHALLENGING ME!?" Li gave her a smug look. "No. Im just wondering if your going to chicken out. Thats all." *C'mon! Just a little more....* "IM NO CHICKEN! HOW MUCH YA WANNA BET!?" *Score!* "How about...oh...let say...loser has to make the other supper for a week. Deal?" She put her nose in the air. "Deal!" And they shook on it. Ooda sweatdropped at the scene. He didn't want to get involved. Eriol and Tomoyo were about 5 people in front of Sakura and Li so they didn't notice the little bet going on.

After about 10 more minutes later, our kawaii couple finally made it to the ticket man. "Ticket please. Thank you." Sakura and Li were the last to board so they got the very back seat. In about 30 seconds after they boarded, it took off like a bullet. It shot out and then started to climb about 100 feet of track. Sakura's eyes grew wide with horror as she just relized that she should of never made that bet. Li glanced over at her and grinned. Ooda looked down from Sakura shoulder. They were now about 80 feet in the air and still climbing. Ooda jumped down to the floor of the cart and clung himself to Sakura's leg and closing his eyes. They were now 90 feet in the air and still climbing. Li knew Sakura was about cling onto him. Again. As soon as they reached the dropping point, Sakura clung onto Li with all her might. Then, "Bump...Bump...VROOM!" And down the tracks they went. Li raised his arms in the air just to frighten Sakura even more. "SYAORAN!!! MAKE IT STOP!!!" Li was enjoying this VERY much. He just grinned ear to ear. "WOOHOO!" Li yelled. Making Sakura even more scared. The roller coaster then made a 180 turn to the right. Making Sakura even more scared. "AAHHHHH!" Then as the coaster became slower and slower, Sakura slowly took her hands off of him. "It's FINALLY over." Sakura sighed with relief. But she didn't know how wrong she was. It was then climbing another 100 foot track. When Sakura noticed this she latched onto Li again. But this time, she was basically sitting on him. When they reached to peak of the track...Down it went again. "VROOM!" This time when it went about 25 feet down it made a sharp turn to the left then went about another 25 feet before turning down and down into a spiral. Ooda was on the brink of vomiting all over everything. He dug his claws into her sock. She didn't even fell it though. She was too scared. Then they finally came to a stop. Sakura was terrified. She was still clinging onto Li and Ooda clinging onto her. She was shaking and Ooda's eye was twitching. Eriol and Tomoyo went their diffent way while Sakura and Li went and sat down.

Sakura was still latched onto him. People were staring at them. It took Sakura about 5 minute to finally realize the ride was over but she was still shaking. Ooda was still twitching. "Mou! Syaoran! That was mean! You did that on purpose! Didn't you?!" "What if I said yes?" She slapped him in the arm. Playfully though. "You just did that cause you wanted me to hang all over you! See if I ever speak to you again!" She crossed her arms, turned the other way and 'humphed'. "Fine. You win. I have ta make you dinner for a week now. Don't I?" She turned to face him. She had a smile of full happiness. "YUP! I won! I won!" Li knew that if he said she won, she would be all happy go lucky agian. Ooda finally stopped twitching and released his grip on Sakura's leg. Sakura winced. "Ow!" Li looked at her. "Whats wrong?" "My leg hurts." She said as she lifted her leg up to examine it. However, she forgot she was wearing a skirt so Li got a birds eye view of her *Ahem* you know.... He grabbed her leg and forced it down. "Whats wrong Syaoran?" He turned red. "Sakura, your wearing a *ahem* skirt." Sakura then realized what she did. She turned a bright red. Her face was now a glowing a red hue. "Oh...uh...sorry..." She lifted her leg again but this time was more carful. She layed her leg on the bench with in laying on its side so that way it didn't reveal anything. Li sighed a breath of relief. It would be REALLY bad if his hormones just kicked in just then. He shuddered at the thought, but shook it off as quickly as it came. He pulled down her sock a little to reveal little punctured marks and small red spots on her sock. Just then Ooda just jumped on top of the table. "Sorry Mistress. I got sorta scared back there." Ooda looked down in shame. He was suppose to protect her instead of hurt her. She smiled and patted his head. "It's okay Ooda. Im fine. It was just a reaction when you got scared. Thats all." Ooda looked up then began to wag its tail. "You'll be okay Sakura. Just little marks. They should heal by the end of the day because you have magic surging through you. Unlike most people." He smile at her. She smiled back then picked Ooda up in her arms. "Okay. Lets go...and win me some prizes!" She said as she jumped up and down. Li and Ooda sweatdropped. Li sighed and agreed. He was happy that Sakura was sooo happy. It made him feel warm to see her smile. Sakura grabbed his arm and off they went to the game section of the fair.

Sakura was now holding a large pink and white bunny in her arms along with Ooda. Li was carrying a larger doll. It was a white Siberian Tiger. It was now starting to get dark. But they kept on going to more and more games. And kept on winning more and more prizes.

~The other side of the Fair~

"Look at the stars Eriol. Aren't they beautiful?" Asked Tomoyo. "How can you see the stars? Its not dark enough to see any." "I know, but I saw a shooting star. See!? Over there!" She said pointing to a 'shooting star.' Eriol pushed his glasses up further onto his nose bridge and squinted. "Tomoyo dear, thats not a shooting star. Thats a plane." She went all dot eyed. "Oh. Hehe....I knew that." He smiled at her kawaiiness. "Your cute when you make those faces." He said while smiling a 'true' smile. "Oh yeah? Your cuter when you smile your 'true' smile. You should smile like that more often." She said as she put a finger on the end of his nose. He grabbed her hand and kissed it. She blushed a little. He did the same. Both had forgotten Sakura, Syaoran, and Ooda. Both with no worries in the world. Only radiating love from eachother. They looked into eachothers eyes and seemed like they were under a spell of love. Now, all we need are flying pigs. Oh! There goes one. Now its perfect. They leaned closer and closer til their lips were only millimeters away. Their lips finally met in a warm and passionate kiss of pure love. Both making the kiss go deeper and deeper til it could go no further. Both were relieved that they were at the very edge of the fair where the trees met. No one was around. It was empty except for the two lovers. Both had finally released eachother from their kiss of love. If they didn't it would of turned into the kiss of death from lack of air. Both burned in the face from the blush they were recieving. Both turned away from embarrisment. Tomoyo was the first to speak up. "Now, if only I could get Sakura and Syaoran to kiss! It would be SO KAWAII! And of course I'll be there to get it on film to! I'll make copies for everyone!" Tomoyo said with stars in her eyes. Both were now facing toward eachother. Eriol sweatdropped. But it quickly turned into a smile. "A perfect way to blackmail him my dear." Tomoyo reeled back to reality and looked at him, quickly catching on. "Oh, you are sooo evil." "Wha? Me? Evil?.....Yeah, true, so true." "Thats why I fell in love with you." "Your just as bad my sweet." They kissed again.....

~At the Ferris Wheel~

"C'mon! Lets go! We can see the whole town from here! C'mon! It'll be fun!" Sakura said as she pulled Li into the line. He sighed and agreed. If ya can't beet'em, then theres no use to fight back. Well, to Sakura that is. Tomoyo and Eriol had just appeared and got in line behind Sakura and Li. "Hello my decendant. Are you riding this also?" Asked a perfectly 'normal' Eriol. Not! "Of course I am! Why do you think im in line!? Duh!" "My my. Aren't we rude tonight. I hope you aren't treating Sakura like that." He glared at him. "I would never do that to her. But you are an exception." Li said bitterly. Sakura looked at him. "Be nice Syaoran." Sakura said. He smiled at her. She felt warm when he smiled at her. Ooda jumped out of Sakura's arms and jumped into a nearby tree. Knowing what was going to happen and not wanting to interfere.

They were finally next in line and stars and moon was now out, lighting up the fair below. Sakura and Li stepped into the cart and the man shut the door. They sat on opposite sides and looked out the window. Avoiding eachothers gaze. Next was Tomoyo and Eriol.

"Oooo! They make me sooo mad!" Tomoyo said as she angrily plopped next to Eriol. "Why?" "Because their avoiding eachother! Thats why!" She crossed her arms with her video cam in her right hand. "You should smile. You look much cuter with a smile on your face." She leaned her head on his shoulder and smiled. "Thats more like it."

~The other Cart~

Sakura looked outside. She could see herself in the reflection of the window. But barely. The night breeze blew making the night air a little chilly. Sakura wrapped her arms around herself and shivered. The air was blowing throught the top of the cart. Only because theres no roof to the small cart. Li saw this. He hesistated at first then he got up and sat next to her, wrapping his arm around her shoulder to try to help her warm up a little. Sakura leaned back til she was supported by Li's body. Li could smell that intoxicating smell of cherry blossoms and strawberries. He was starting to get dizzy. But he quickly regaind control. She smelt so good! "Syaoran?" "Hm?" "Aren't the stars lovely?" "Yes, very. And to think they all belong to you." She looked up at him in question. "They bow to you and lend you their power. Just think. All of them bowing to you." She blushed. She looked down trying to hide her blush. Li looked at her. He put a finger under her chin and lift her face up til he could see her deep emerald eyes. "It's true. You know." She smiled. He smiled back a caring smile. They just looked into eachothers eyes. Both getting lost in emerald and chestnut. Both could sense what was coming. They leaned in closer and closer. Both tilting their heads just a little. Their lips met in a warm, passionate kiss. The kiss of two magic holders. Their auras mixed, twinning and twisting with eachothers. Sakura put her arms around his neck and he put his around her back. She ran her hands through his hair and him running his hands up and down caressing her back. He deepened the kiss. Sakura did nothing but deepen it to. Both filled with love and passion. Finally, after going as long as they could without oxygen, had to break appart. Both panting and blushing. Sakura spoke up. "Was that your first?" "Yeah. You?" "Same here." Both smiled at eachother and leaned in again. Both going deeper.
