CHAPTER 2
The next day was a Saturday so Sakura invited Tomoyo and Li over to her house. Her brother went somewhere with Yukito ("And hopefully, Nakuru won't be there." Touya said before he left) while her father had to go to a meeting. "Hmm. what should I pack." Sakura asked herself. Just then, she heard the doorbell ring and went to see who it was. It was Tomoyo and Li. She quickly let them in. "I was thinking about what to pack when you guys came." Sakura trailed off as she saw Tomoyo listing off things Sakura needed. Sakura and Li looked at Tomoyo with awe and disbelief. "There, I think that's all you'll need." Tomoyo said cheerfully. The list was 5 pages long. "uh Tomoyo, I don't think I need that much." Sakura said. "Oh, well then, I guess I'll take off." Tomoyo started. "Um, thanks Tomoyo." Sakura laughed. For the next hour, Sakura, Tomoyo, and Li started to pack the things they might need. Though not without bickering from the "brat" and the "Stuffed animal." "Don't you know anything about going to places?! You put the heaviest things at the bottom!!" Li grumbled at Kero. "Of COURSE I know about packing. In fact, I probably know it better than you, Brat! Hmf!" Kero countered. "Don't call me 'brat' you stuffed animal!" "Yeah?! Well I'm no stuffed animal, I'm the Beast of the Seal, not a teddy bear." "Yeah? Well you look like one!" "Not when I'm in my true form." Kero blew a raspberry at Li. Li gave Kero a penetrating scowl. Tomoyo laughed while Sakura tried to break them up. "Um, guys? We really need to pack and um. ACK!" Sakura dodged a piece of candy that Kero threw at Li. "All right that does it!!" Li started toward Kero. "Nyah nyah~! You couldn't catch me with a 10 foot-long net!!!" "Why you little." Li grabbed Kero by his tail and held it. Then he gave it a sharp yank. "OUCH! Hey!!" Kero yelped. Then he bit Li on the finger.hard. "OW!!! Eurgh." "Oh no, Kero! Here, I'll bring some bandaged and some medicine." Sakura offered. "Hah! Serves him right! Never mess with the Beast of the Seal! Muhahaha!" Kero laughed triumphantly. Sakura was back with the bandages and medicine. "Let me see where Kero bit you." Sakura said kindly. Li blushed furiously. "Hah, that shade of red would go great with my curtains!" Kero scoffed. The blush was replaced by a death look to Kero, who was eating the candy he threw at Li. "There, all done!" Sakura said. "Oh, um. uh, thanks." Li stammered. Sakura smiled. Li blushed again. "I'll bring some tea." Sakura said. Sakura went downstairs, when she heard someone behind her. Li had come along. In truth, he came to confess that he liked her. "Oh Li, good timing, here, I need some help with this." She pointed to the tea tray. "Oh, um.okay." Li said. He blushed again. "Sakura.I." Li started. "Yes?" Sakura asked. "er. that is. I mean. I like." Li was very close to confessing, but just then. "Hey Sakura, do we have any cake left? Can you bring some?" Kero appeared in the kitchen. "Oh! Yes, okay, I'll bring it along." Sakura replied. She went to the refrigerator and took out some cake. She sliced it into a few pieces and put the pieces onto trays. "Come on, we better hurry or Kero might bite someone's finger again!" Sakura laughed.
