Chapter Five
Ever since that day in the backyard, Sakura
and Syaoran would only *glare* at each other. They didn't know who hated the other most, but knew that they couldn't stand each other. Yelan and Fujitaka noticed this, and tried to make them go out on a date. But they refused. {Along with Touya..}
"I am NOT going out on date with..that..that..poor excuse of a girl!" Syaoran said, crossing his arms.
"Hey! who are you calling a poor excuse? you should look in the *mirror* Li-kun!"
:-p --------Syaoran
:-p ------------Sakura
D -----------Touya
"Both of you stop arguing!" King Kinomoto and Yelan said at the same time. '
"You will BOTH go on this date, whether you like it or not!" Yelan said.
"It is right for you two to get to KNOW one another! Imagine on your wedding day--"
"Heh, i'm not getting married to THAT thing.." Syaoran replied.
"Same here!" Sakura said.
" u.u Ho?"
"ENOUGH!" King Kinomoto slammed a book on the table. "You WILL go on this date!"
Syaoran and Sakura stared at each other and then stomped their feet.
"We..will.....not!" They said at the same time.
"Too bad, because you are! and Lady Nakuru is going to accompany you!" He told them.
Nakuru blinked. "Who me?"
Fujitaka sweatdropped and sighed. "You're excused.." he said as he sat down.
......................................
Syaoran ran up the stairs and slammed the door to his
room. How could his mother bring him to such an awful place? and to think, he was actually starting to LIKE it here. Especially the backyard. He layed on his bed and looked up the ceiling. "That baka Kinomoto!" He growled under his breath. 'im not going anywhere with his gaki of a daughter'.
Sakura slammed the door of her room, and lied on her bed. "Why must father treat me this way?" she said. 'He knows i don't like him! and i will never too! He might as well just give up, and send Li-kun back to China, where he can't BOTHER me anymore..' There was a knock at the door. Sakura got up, and opened the door. It was Lady Nakuru.
"Oh, good day Nakuru.." she muttered.
"Good day, Kinomoto-chan.." she looked at her. "What's wrong?" Apparently, Nakuru zoned out downstairs. She sat down next to her. "You can tell me..^_^ i sware not to tell anyone.."
Sakura just layed there, looking all grumpy.
"^_^ Is this about you going out with Li-kun?"
Sakura muttered, "who? oh that Baka"
"Aww c'mon..you know you like him deep down Kinomoto-chan..just, go out on this date for your dad, he's trying really hard to find you a husband you know.."
"Really? why did he had to bring Li-kun here?! -.- I rather marry Prince Phillip.."
"Who? that english boy? well, he was kind of cute, and he really did like you...but Touya put him up on your Grandfather's statue, and believe me ^_^ he won't be coming back"
"I don't WANT to get married to Li-kun.."
"Well...you can't do anything about it Kinomoto-chan, because, even though you can't see it, he, probably likes you deep down ..and plus, he is really cute! ^_^ give it a shot! If you don't like him by then...then i'll convince your father to abandon him as your suitor.."
"You would...really do that for me?"
She nodded. "Of course..) Not, pay me 1,000 yen"
" u.u You're kidding me.."
" ^_^ Yep, i am..."
So, Sakura had promised to go out on this 'date' with Syaoran, but only if Nakuru kept her promise. Meanwhile, somebody knocked on Syaoran's door {guess..}
"Come in.." He muttered.
It was Yelan. She entered, and closed the door. She walked towards him, and caressed his hair. "My Syaoran...why do you hate her so? i was just trying to make you happy, that's all.."
"I can't STAND her mother..she's a pain in the a--"
Yelan smacks him upside the head.
"OUCH! X0 Why did you do that for?!"
"You were about to curse..."
" u.u Whatever" he crossed his arms once more.
"C'mon Syaoran, go out on this one little date! its not going to hurt you..."
"How much you want to bet on it?"
"Syaoran, please. Do this for me...please?"
He looked at her.
"Please? I was...just trying to make you..happy..find you, a wife...a friend"
He nodded. "Fine, but only if we leave the next day...i can't STAND that girl!"
"Fine. If that is your wish.." she got up, and left his room. Fujitaka was standing outside, and so was Lady Nakuru.
"So, did it work?" Fujitaka asked her.
Yelan nodded. "He bought it! ^_^"
"Did Sakura buy yours too Nakuru?" He asked her.
" ^_^ Yep..."
"Then its settled then..if they DONT like each other by the end of the date, we will have to seperate them..yes, A deal is a deal Yelan.."
"Doesn't matter anyways...he still has Meiling! ^_^"
"And she still has Phillip! ^_^"
"So.." Nakuru began. "When is this date anyways ^_^?"
" ._. We don't know yet...^_^ but its going to be soon!" Yelan said.
.............................................................*~..............................................................*~..................................................................
During dinner, that very same
day, Fujitaka announced, that Sakura and Syaoran's date, will take place 4 days from now. Which made Sakura and Syaoran relieved. After dinner, Syaoran got up, and walked back towards the backyard. He sighed, seeing the magical view once more. He sat down on that very same bench, and saw that very same cherry blossom leaf, still floating in the lake, it was still in the same spot. The near end. He sighed and closed his eyes, smelling the fresh scent of peonies and cherry blossom leaves. Nakuru, {who had followed him once more} couldn't help but watch.
'He looks so confused...' she thought.
Syaoran opened his eyes and saw Nakuru standing right there.
"Hiya! ^_^" she waved at him.
" u.u What are you doing here?"
"^_^ Spying on you...its my duty as Lady of the Kinomoto Empire, to find out everything there is to know about everyone!"
" u.u You made that up, didn't you?"
"^_^ Yes, wasn't it belivable.."
Syaoran blushed. "Um..no, not really"
"So, what's the deal with you and Kinomoto-chan eh?"
Syaoran smirked. "Heh, that baka!"
" ^_^; I'm..gonna believe i didn't hear that just now.."
"Whatever, believe what you want!" Syaoran said.
"Aww, don't be all stubborn now! I know you like Kinomoto-chan.."
"How come everyone is SAYING that all of a sudden?"
"Um..no purpose, none at all ^_^ well, good bye" and she ran away.
" o.o; What's gotten into her?"
Yelan was standing infront of the doorway that leads to the backyard. She spooted Nakuru and ran to her. "So, did it work?"
"A little bit..but, he got to suspicious so, i just um... o.o left"
Yelan fell to the floor in disbelief.
" I'm...i'm really sorry Lady Yelan..^_^ i tried my best!"
Yelan's eye twitched. "I'll NEVER get Syaoran to go out with Kinomoto-chan! He will NEVER like her!"
"Oh don't worry about it Lady Yelan.."
"Why? you know how stubborn my son can be.."
"He probably DOES like her..i saw them talking yesterday in the backyard..in the EVENING, and Syaoran looking at her...LOOKING at her..^_^ oh yes, they like each other alright.."
"Liking in means of, can't stand her or him?" Yelan asked.
"Possibly! ^_^"
Yelan fell once more. "Its hopeless!"
Later on in the evening, Sakura
was walking down towards the backyard. {Syaoran left early to sleep} She entered, and sat down on the bench. She sighed, as the breeze blew her brown hair. Her emerald green eyes gazing upon that same cherry blossom tree..which was dedicated to her, written in her own mother's handwriting. She got up, and touched the tree. She leaned her face on it, and kissed it gently. "Mother.."
"What are YOU doing here?"
Sakura turned around, it was Syaoran.
" -.- Have you come to bother me again baka?"
"Curse you Kinomoto-chan!"
"Hey wait a second!" Sakura said. "How come you like coming here so much?"
Syaoran blinked. "W-What are you talking about?"
"Nakuru-San told me ^_^"
Syaoran crossed his arms. "Whatever.."
"You're soo stubborn! One can think how many wives you must have by now!"
"And how many husbands do YOU have? one could think, who would love such a dense princess?"
"Who would love such a stubborn, arrogant, rude prince!?"
0 -------------Syaoran
p ---------Sakura
Sakura was about to leave the courtyard, but then Syaoran grabbed her arm. Sakura blushed. "W-What are you doing?!"
"I was thinking..."
"Yeah?"
"I've been hearing, that Yelan, that baka kinomoto, and Nakuru are setting us up!"
"My father is NOT a baka!" Sakura told him.
"That's not the point!"
Sakura blinked. "Then...what are you saying?"
"You don't want to go out on this date now, do you?" he asked her.
"Of course!"
"Then, we should just...play along"
"What do you mean by 'play along'?" She raised a brow.
"Idiot! we should keep hating each other even MORE! that way, My mother, and your father will HAVE to give up, and then, i'll go away and never bother you again"
Sakura thought, and then smiled. "That sounds like a good idea to me!"
Syaoran took out his hand. "Promise?"
Sakura looked at it, and took out her hand, shaking his. "Promise"
They both smiled at each other, but then, Sakura twisted his arm.
"OUCH! X0 damnit!"
" p Fool, like i would ACTUALLY believe you!"
"Baka!" Syaoran said.
"Gaki!" responded Sakura.
"Baka"
"Gaki"
"Baka"
"Gaki"
And that fight, took 10 minutes long to finish. Both were tired,
and without making a peep, they went upstairs to their rooms...
Meanwhile..
Meiling was peeking through a hole in her door. "Hmph! we'll see about that! Nobody's going to take my Syaoran! Nobody!!"
Touya, who just happened to appear glared at Meiling. "What did you say twerp?"
"^_^ Nothing.." when she saw that Touya was leaving, she glared at Sakura's door.
"What are you GLARING at?!" Touya asked Meiling. Apparently, he didn't leave.
"Um..um nothing nothing at all!"
And this continued on for 4 minutes...
