Chapter 3
"Ok, birthday girl, where would you like to go now?" Syaoran said with a smirk.
"Um. . . Why don't we just sit on that bench over there, I'm tired" Sakura pouted.
"Sure."
Meanwhile. . .
"Tomoyo! I thought you said we weren't going to follow them anymore." Eriol complained.
"I can't resist. Sorry Eriol, but I have a feeling that something big is going to happen and I can't miss it! How about this: I reinstate your puppy dog eye usage and after they go home you can take me where you want." Tomoyo practically pleaded.
Eriol pondered for a while. *Well, what could it hurt? Besides, I'll finally get some time alone with Tomoyo without the camcorder*
"Alright, but after this I'm taking your camcorder away."
"Fine." Tomoyo said with a glare.
"Now, now dear, it's for your own good," was Eriol's answer to the glare.
"Yes, father, now what else do you want me to do?" Tomoyo said sarcastically.
This time Eriol gave his own glare. "Sorry Tomoyo," Eriol said slightly dejected.
"Aww, poor Eriol. I was only kidding. I'll agree to whatever you say. . . AFTER this."
"Ok," Eriol said cheering up.
"The problem seems to be every time Syaoran gets up the courage to declare his love for her, something or someone interrupts." at that moment Tomoyo got the greatest idea.( at the MOMENT it was the greatest idea . . . Hehe) "Eriol, make a barricade around them at least a 10 metres radius."
"Uh. . .I'll try but I'm not sure if I can keep it up for long as I'm already putting a shield over us so they can't detect if we're here and it requires great concentration. If the slightest thing disturbs me, something weird could happen." Eriol
"So you can do it right?" Tomoyo
Eriol sweat dropped. Looks like she was going all out and at whatever the cost. The only thing he could do was agree.
"Yea." Eriol
He raised his hands slightly and stared directly at the couple sitting on the bench. (Sorry if this sounds totally bogus, but I don't really know how Eriol looks when he's doing magic. Just bare with me) Tomoyo could felt a warm air coming from Eriol that she felt whenever someone was doing magic. Suddenly, a squirrel jumped out of the bush they were hiding behind (does that make sense? The squirrel, in other words, was jumping towards Tomoyo) A frightened Tomoyo jumps back and knocks Eriol over.
"Uh oh" They both chorused as they heard a high-pitched scream originating from a certain auburn haired girl.. .
Back with S+S. . .
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" screamed (obviously it's ) Sakura
"What's wrong Sakura? Are you alright?" Syaoran asked with worry in his voice while frantically searching for a reason why she would be screaming.
"I-I-I can't see and I can't hear!!!!!!!" Sakura yelled on the verge of tears.
"What?!?! You can't see or hear?" Asking mostly himself as if she really couldn't hear well, she wouldn't have heard.
*What's going on? We were just sitting here and. . . I don't sense anything. What is this? The world is against me today. What do I do?*
"Syaoran," Sakura managed to say between crying and panicking, "Hold me. I'm afraid. Where are you? Don't leave me now."
"I won't. I'm here" Syaoran said as he took Sakura into his embrace.
Even though Sakura had no idea what he had said, she knew that she'd be all right, she was safe, sitting on that bench in Syaoran's arms.
Meanwhile. . .
"Eriol, you're genius, what did you do?!?!" Tomoyo asked amazed at the results before her eyes.
" Why thank you dear, but the credit is not mine I was only trying to make a barricade like you said when you knocked me over and it appears that it has made Sakura unable to hear and see," Eriol explained.
"Genius, genius!!! They're hugging each other. KAWAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!" Tomoyo squealed.
"You do know that we have to restore her hearing and sight ,right? Riiiight????"
"Um.. . " Tomoyo thought.
"Um?!?! Tomoyo! You can't "um" this has to be fixed," Eriol panicked.
"Oh, just a little longer. They're so cute" Tomoyo whined.
"Tomoyo. . ." Eriol said in a threatening tone.
"Oh alright, alright already. Just fix it." Tomoyo agreed wearily.
Eriol once again stared at the couple with his arms raised and chanted a spell.
"There," Eriol stated proudly. "Cheer up Tomoyo, they'll get together soon enough and next time it won't be with the help of magic."
"I guess."
Back on the bench. . .
Sakura sat up suddenly and frightened Syaoran slightly as they had been sitting in silence for at least 15 minutes.
"What is it Sakura?"
" I can't see and hear again!! Yay!!" Sakura cheered.
"Are you alright Sakura? No side effects?" Syaoran said still worried.
"I'm fine Syaoran. Don't worry about it." Sakura assured.
Both of them were sorry for it the embrace to be over. They rather liked being in each other's arms.
"Do you want me to take you home now? It's been a long day and boy do I mean long."
"Yep!"
They finally got to Sakura's house after many long awkward pauses.
"Syaoran?"
"Yea?"
"Thanks"
"For what?"
"For today and on the bench. I was really scared and I don't think I could've gotten through it without you."
"Oh" Syaoran said desperately trying to hide a blush.
Sakura halfway up the stairs hesitated for a moment and ran back down to where Syaoran was and gave him a little peck on the cheek.
"Sakura. . ." He said, speechless. (haha, isn't that an oxymoron)
But before Syaoran could say anything, Sakura had already run into the house and closed the door behind her. Syaoran had his hand on his face where Sakura had kissed him. He couldn't believe it. *My face probably looks like a tomato. I wonder what made her do that. Maybe she. . . Nah, she was just grateful. . . Right?*
*I can't believe I did that. . . I just couldn't help it. It was as if I wasn't in control.* Sakura
