A Fighter's Spirit
By that ingenious writer Dark Moon!
Author's Note: You all forgive me! I'm so happy, but this is going to be short anyways cuz I got the all new chapters of 'Another Chance' to write. Don't get angry I'll have lots of short chapters to post along with this one that might not end up in a cliffhanger if I'm lucky.
Part 7
Yue left Sakura to wash and change while he went to get the picnic basket. He passed many of the children who were showing off what they had learned to some of the kids who hadn't been able to make the lesson.
"Sakura is so cool! She said next lesson if we have time she's going to teach us how to fight a gang of people if they attack you."
"Really? I wish I was able to make it. But I had to coax Kero into taking his afternoon nap. He knows he gets cranky but every time Miss Helen makes pudding he has to be there."
Yue chuckled before going into the kitchen and seeing Helen put the finishing touches on the basket.
"I was wondering when you were going to show up. Here's the lunch, I added some of the pudding I made but it might be best to let it chill a little longer before eating."
"Thanks Helen. I don't know what we'd do without you." Yue kissed her cheek.
"Probably starve. Now go on with you, that young lady won't wait forever." Helen pointed behind Yue where a just out of the shower Sakura stood smiling at them.
"Ready?" Yue asked her.
"Yeah."
Yue led Sakura out through the back door to the garden, one hand carrying the basket the other holding Sakura's hand. As they left, Yue thought he heard Helen mumble something about a 'cute couple' but must have heard wrong. They didn't have to go far and were soon at the lake watching some of the a group of teens and younger ones playing in the lake. Sakura saw Yue's disappointment and asked what was wrong.
"Nothing." he said aloud, 'I just wanted to be alone with you.' he thought inside.
"Great. Let's eat, I'm famished." Sakura waited as Yue laid out the blanket and put the basket in the middle before sitting down with the basket between them.
They talked through the afternoon, turning down the calls to join the games in the water and enjoying the companionship of the other. Sakura bent to grab a sandwich and Yue couldn't help but lean over to smell her hair.
'Mmm, cherries. With a hint of cinnamon, I think.' Yue thought taking another sniff.
Sakura felt something tickling the back of her neck and sat up quickly hand raised to slap off the offending bug. Yue didn't know Sakura was going to sit up so fast and was taken by surprise when he felt petal soft lips on his.
Emerald green met silver violet, a storm of emotions swirling in those depths. Taking his chances, Yue pressed his lips a little harder on hers and was happy to feel her respond.
"Ooooh, Sakura and Yue sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G." came a chorus from the lake.
Yue broke away from Sakura fast and turned an interesting shade of magenta, staring down at the grass. Sakura had a blush of her own coloring her cheeks but a shy smile made its way on her face. The song went on for a few minutes until Helen called out that dinner would be ready and that they all had to clean up and finish the last of their chores before it was time.
"Helen, Helen guess what we saw?" some of the younger ones called out, running towards the cook who was already walking back towards the house.
"And what might that be?" she asked, smiling down at them.
"Yue and Sakura kissing." Tomoyo whispered, giggling.
"Ya don't say." Helen replied looking over to the couple, seeing Yue staring at the ground and Sakura looking at him curiously while putting the remains of their picnic.
"Yeah, Yue jumped back and turned all red." Hype reported, jumping up and down.
"We should leave them alone for now. Hurry inside and change." Helen ushered them all in and with a faint smile closed the door.

DM: I wish I had been able to get this out sooner but because of another bout of writers block I'm lucky this came out. I hope ya'll like it and may my muse come back to spite me with inspiration.
Clow: Do you know what spite means?
DM: Yup.
Li: Then why'd you say that?
DM: Cause if I act like I want inspiration he'll take even longer to come back from vacation and then I'll never get this story going.
Sakura: I never knew you had a muse.
DM: I only used him for Gundam Wing fics, but when I finally decide he's useful for CCS he decides to take a break and go to the Bahamas. Not even asking if I wanted to go. *pouts*
Yue: If you were on vacation then you wouldn't have thought of this fic.
DM: Actually I would have, it just would have been a long time before I wrote it. Anyways, please review!
