~* Soccer Practice *~







The ball came near Ken, the best player on team 2, Kondo forcefully kicked the ball, it went straight to team 1's goal fast, suddenly an arm blocked the ball bouncing off to Syaoran. 'All right Ken!!' Syaoran thought (A/N: Yes, i just had to put my Ken in it!) Syaoran had the ball, he rushed toward the goal, there was a guy standing in his way, 'easy' Syaoran thought has he twisted the ball and quickly moved the the left side shaking off the guy. He then ran up ahead and saw Eriol was open. He fiercely kicked the ball and it went over to Eriol. Eriol moved 5 steps then kicked the ball high in the air "What the hell ar" The coach yelled (A/N: Bad coach) but before he could finish his sentence Syaoran jumped up and hit the ball with his head and it landed straight into the goal "Score!" Syaoran yelled. "Great!" the coached yelled. "Now for" But the coach was interupted by a cell phone going off (A/N: Why do they say off?not on?) Sudddenly Syaoran realized that was his cell phone. He quickly went and picked it up "Hello?" Syaoran said "Syaoran?" a small weak voice came from it "Yeah? Who's this" Syaoran asked "..It Its Sakura" Sakura said her voice cracking "Woah, what happened to you?" Syaoran said concerned " Well," Sakura said starting to sob "Um" Sakura began "The date didn't go too great?" Syaoran asked, "Could you please come pick me up? Tomoyo is" Sakura began "Yeah, I herd, Hold on I'll be right there ok?" Syaoran said "Thanks" Sakura said weakly "Sorry coach I got to run" Syaoran said "WHAT DO YOU MEAN?!!" Coach said going balistic " I got to go" Syaoran said walking off. 'I wonder what that was about' Eriol wondered. 'Hold on Sakura, just hold on' Syaoran said now running to his car.



---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----





Syaoran raced up to the restaurant. He was worried, really worried, never was he this worried for a girl, but he pushed those thoughts away, for now he had to find Sakura. He sped out of the parking lot and ended up stopping in front of a traffic light. "Kuso(shit)!!" Syaoran yelled. He looked around and remember when he raced with Sakura back to the apartment, remembered her sleeping on the same bed. What was going on? Suddenly the light turned green, breaking up his thought. He quickly rushed on. He rushed to the restraunt where he herd Sakura was gloating about before going to Tomoyo's. He found Sakura. Crouching near the ground, her arms wrapped around her, her face buried in her arms. She was crying. "Sakura." Syaoran said bending over. Sakura then slightly tilted her head up and looked into amber eyes. It was Syaoran. "Syao..Syaoran" Sakura said wiping her tears away, but more spilled out. "Sakura, are you ok" Syaoran asked softly reaching out a hand. Sakura took it. Syaoran gently pulled her up and looked at her face. She was a mess, her messy buns became limp long falling hair, and her sad, dull eyes were filled with tears that kept coming out. Her nose was a little red and runny from crying, with tear stained cheeks.







Sakura then wiped her tears again with her slender hand. Sakura then began to shiver. Syaoran caressed her face and removed a few tears away from her face, the hand felt so warm. Syaoran then took off his jacket and put it around Sakura's arm. "Let's go to the car now" Syaoran whispered in her ear. Sakura slowly nodded her head. With an arm around Sakura's shoulder they both slowly headed to the card.





~- Apartment-~



Syaoran opened the door, will one arm wrapped around Sakura's shoulder. Sakura was feeling slightly better. Syaoran signaled Sakura to sit on the couch while he wanted to call Tomoyo. 'Shimatta, what am I suppose to do? I've never been in a situation like the! Ahh Tomoyo please be home!' Syaoran thought while punching in the numbers. He waited for it to ring and heard Sakura sniffling and getting a tissue. "Hello?" Eriols voice suddenly popped out. "Eriol! Is Tomoyo there?!" Sakura ased urgently "Er.no sorry, she's still at the convention." Eriol replied. "Oh. " Syaoran said slowly. "Dude, what the hell is up?" Eriol asked. "Ah, tell you later, got to go" Sakura said "Ja" Eriol replied. Syaoran looked up to see Sakura on the couch hugging her knees again, sniffling and staring at nothing in particular. Syaoran sighed. What is he supposed to do?





~- 10 minutes later -~





Syaoran eneter the living room with a tray containing two bowls and two spoons. He walked up to Sakura, placed the tray down on the table where he saw the coffee stain that happened the first day Sakura moved in. Syaoran then sat down next to Sakura and looked at her. Sakura's had stopped crying. 'Ah, thank god she stopped crying; Syaoran thought then said "Feel like any soup?" "It's chicken noodle..your favorite?" Syaoran thought. 'Hopefully..' Syaoran thought. 'That's not my favorite..' Sakura thought..Then she suddenly realized how much Syaoran was trying to cheer her up, to comfort her, this made her mouth gave a light tug to each side of her mouth and formed a small smile. 'Ah! She's smiling!! I must have guessed correctly!' Syaoran thought. "Sure, I would love to have some." Sakura said reaching for a bowl.







~- 10 minutes later-~





Sakura set the bowl down both of them done with their soup. Sakura got up and said "Tell you what Sakura,, you go dry off, take a nice warm bath and we come back and watch any chik flick of your choice. "Ok" Sakura said more cheerful then before. Sakura waked over to her room while Sakura took the bowls and went to wash them in the sink.







~* Bathroom *~





Sakura layed there, bubbles all over the surface, it felt good. She sighed and tried not to think of this evening, yet she did. She thought of how Brian was making out with Kimiko, about how Syaoran came to her even though he had a big practice. 'Brian and Kimiko were meant to be, I know they love each other very much...now if only I can find my love.'Sakura thought





~- Hour Later -~



Sakura emerged out of her room. She felt much better after her bath. 'Almost back to normal' Sakura thought. She had her hair in a mess bun, wearing her loose tank top that still had the brocken strap and soft pink pajama pants. She found Syaoran reading a book on the coach. "What's that?" Sakura asked curiously. "It's called a book, you've herad of those before right?" Syaoran said closing the book. Suddenly he slammed his hand over his mouth. He had forgot. 'Oh no! Here comes the water works!' Syaoran thought beginning to panic. Instead Sakura gave a small smile. 'Huh?' Syaoran then said "So what do you wat to watch?" Syaoran then quickly thought of the ultimate chick flick or move that girls loved to watch "Titanic?" Syaoran said 'Oh damn it!" It's a sad ending!! Ah shit!! Two times in a row! Think Syaoran! Think!!!' Syaoran said mentally kicking himself. This time, Sakura did start crying. "Oh, Sakura I'm sorry" Syaoran said putting a hand on her shoulder. Thay both sat on the coach. "Tel me about your err "date", it's better to let it out ne?" Syaoran said. Sakura then began to cry on Syaoran's shoulder. "When I got there" Sakura said muffling in Syaoran's shirt. " I saw.. saw Brian" Sakura then shedde more tears on Syaoran "and he was..was" Sakura began. Syaoran wrapped both arms around Sakura, hugging her tightly to his chest. "He was making out with..with Kimiko!" Sakura said bursting into tears. Syaoran was shoked at what she just said. 'That Brian! I'm gung teach him a lesson!' Syaoran thought then paid his attention back to Sakura. "Then..he asked me what I was doing there.." Sakura said burying her head in Syaoran's shoulder. Syaoran just hugged her tighter. After five minutes Sakura stopped crying and Syaoran offered her a tissue.





She pulled away from Syaoran to find a big wet spot all over his shirt. "Oh, I'm sorry" Sakura said "Ahaha, it's all right as long as you feel better" Syaoran said giving her a smile. Sakura smiled back "Now then, while I change my shirt, why don't you puck out a movie hmm?" Syaoran asked standing up. Sakura amiled even widder beginning to forget the whole incident. "Ok!" Sakura said little more cheerfully. "Arigato Syaoran" Sakura said "Oh, no problem, I don't mind chick flicks myself" Syaoran said waving his hand, "Sometimes I don't see what" Syaoran started rambling on and on while walking to his room. This caused Sakura to smile more. "No, not that" Sakura said. "Huh?" Syaoran turned around to look at her. "Thanks for helping me feel better, thanks for coming to pick me up, thanks for everything" Sakura said smiling. Syaoran then walked up to Sakura, really close so that they could only see each other's faces. He then put two fingers under Sakura's chin and slightly tilted it upwards. He then looked into her bright gleeful eyes. "Sakura, I'll always be there for you" and gave her a kiss on her cheek before hugging her. (A/N Aaaawwwww) After a minute he pulled away and simply said, "Now you find a tape while I change ne?" Syaoran said softly. Sakura sm iled and nodded her head. "Hai!"







~- Two minutes later -~



Syaoran walked into the living room. "Have you chosen ms.?" Syaoran asked teasingfully. Sakura smiled. "Yup, Serendipity!" "Not a bad choice" Syaoran answered. They popped the VHS in the VHR and sat on the coach. Sakura then began to snuggle with Syaoran. Leaning her whole body on Syaoran while paying attention to the TV. Syaoran just smiled and wrapped an arm around her.







~- Two hours later -~





"Ok" Syaoran said standing up and stretching. "Aw, what a sweet movie" Sakura said also standing up. "I wonder if I'll ever find my true love in time." Sakura said softly out loud. "Hey!" Syaoran said putting his arm on Sakura's shoulder "You will, you definetly will!" Syaoran looking into her emerald eyes. "Arigato" Sakura said smiling. "And if you don't.." Syaoran said smirking "Then you can marry mee if you're getting old" Syaoran said. "Hahaha, no thanks" Sakura said walking to her room. "What? Not good enough for you?" Syaoran asked teasingly. "No, you're perfect" Sakura said jokingly. About to enter her room, she saw how lonely it was in there, she would rather stay out here, with Syaoran, with someone to be with. Syaoran saw this. "Hey, Sakura why don't you come sleep with me today?" Syaoran suggested. Sakura's face lit up. "Really" Sakura asked smiling "No!" Syaoran said then said, "Of course, no lets go" Syaoran said putting an arm around Sakura's shoulders. "By the way, Chicken noodle isn't my favorite soup" Sakura began "Oh? Then what is?" Syaoran asked feeling stupid "Clam chowder" "Mine too" (A/N: Mine too!) When they got into Syaoran's room, Syaoran moved over to let Sakura in. She slipped in and pulled the green sheet over her shoulders. Then hugged Syaoran. Syaoran just automatically wrapped his arms around her slim waist. They both fell asleep in each other's arms..







SwtKanideSakura: Aaawwww! You see? S+S moment! Teehee hope it was good enough for you -_-ll ok ok I WAS going to end it here..but I think that I would have been to short then huh? Ok! More!





Sakura woke up to find herself in Syaorans room again. She tried to pull the covers over her head again. While hearing bird chirping, she felt that she had more space...she quickly pulled herself up to sitting position and scanned the bed. Syaoran wasn't there. 'Oh shit, I hope Syaoran's not on the floor again!! Please oh please!!' Sakura thought while moving slowly to the edge of the bed. She looked on the ground. It was empty. "Hoe?" Sakura thought. "Where'd he go?" Sakura asked looking under the bed. "Nope not there...'' Sakura said slowly. She then smelled something. Breakfast. Sakura slowly walked into the kitchen and found Syaoran cooking, wearing an apron and holding a spatula on one hand and a pan on the other. "Ohayo" Syaoran said putting the pancakes in a plate "Morning" Sakura chimed. Looking at Syaoran in the apron. Sakura had to admit, ever since yesterday, when he was so caring for her, she did start to like him. "Ya know Sakura, If you don't hurry up we are going to be late" Syaoran said beginning to removing the apron. "Oh yeah! todays there's school!!!" Sakura said rushing into her room.







~- 10 minutes later -~









Sakura rushed out of her room. Her hair straight down. She was wearing a light pink shirt with a few cherry blossom design on it and blue denim short skirt along with baggy socks (A/N I love those! there so kewl!!) and light pink platform tennis shoes. She saw Syaoran had just finished washing the dishes, he was still wearing his apron. There was a plate of pancakes on the table. It was for her. She ran up to it and stuffed it all in her mouth "Pig" Syaoran said then went back to rinsing the cup. "Hmph" Sakura said. washing her plate. Syaoran rushed in his room to get his back pack. He then came back out. "Why are you still wearing you apron?" Sakura asked questionlly. "Its... its stuck" Syaoran said sweatdropping. "Awww, here let me help you" Sakura said trying to untie the knot. "Dude Syaoran what did you do?" Sakura said fingering it then pulling random strings. She blushed at the fact that she was so close to him. After a minute she finally set it loose. "Thanks Sakura" Syaoran said taking off his apron revealing that he was wearing a dark blue shirt along with baggy blue jeans (A/N all blue) "Lets go" Syaoran said running to the door.









~- 10 minutes later -~







Syaoran and Sakura were both rushing to their class, suddenly Sakura tripped "HHHOOEEE" Sakura screamed but felt strong arms around her waist. She then got up, Syaoran's arm still around her, she faced him. when suddenly the bell rang. "AK!" They both said entering the room. "Please be seated" the professor began to drown on and on. Syaoran sat there thinking. Ever since yesterday he had felt a certain feeling. He wanted her to be happy, wanted to make her happy, He wanted to see the shinning gleefulness in her eyes, whenever he wrapped his arms around Sakura's delicate slim waist he would melt. He wanted her.







~- Lunch -~







Syaoran walked up to Eriol. "Hey" Syaoran said while walking to he cafateria (A/N I know cafeteria food are nasty!! well lets just pretend this is a really really good one that serves Mc Donalds and Burger King or something) "Yo, I herd about what happened" Eriol began. not noticing that Sakura and Chihiru were only 5 feet away from them. "And I have to say good job! I don't think i could have done that even with Tomoyo" Eriol said inline, again not noticing Sakura and Chihru were two people behind them. "Haha, its all in the skills my man" Syaoran said high fiving Eriol "And if i didn't know any better, I'd think that you are falling for her." Eriol said giving a secret smile. Syaoran stood there stumped. He wanted to tell Eriol of course, but he knew that Eriol would tell Tomoyo and Tomoyo would tell Sakura. Not wanting to give Sakura more pressure then she has already he said "Naw, I helped her cuz she looked so helpless" Syaoran said. Sakura stepped back a little 'Is that what he thought? Just because I looked helpless? Sakura then continued to talk to Chihru







~- Near end of Lunch -~







"Sakura!" Chihru said running up to her "Hey Chihru" Sakura said smiling. "I need to find a new place to stay..." Chihru began, "Yamazaki says he needs some space... maybe it's because i always choke him...but if he would just stop telling lies!" Chiharu said "But it doesn't matter, we can't be living together so early anyways, it would just be like being married, then what's the point of being married?" Chihru said giving a little laugh. "Haha, so if you see any cheap apartments.." Chihru said "But I wouldn't break you two up, Heck no" Chihru said not noticing that Syaoran and Yamazaki were near them. "Hoe, why?" Sakura asked "Oh, come on Sakura! that was really sweet of what he did, if only Yamazaki could be like that... besides you honestly can't tell me you don't feel anything for him.. I mean he has the looks the body and now the sweetness! i mean score!" Chiharu said 'You got that right' Sakura thought 'But if Tomoyo isn't the first to know she'll be furious' Sakura then said "Nope, that was kind of him, but how can I like him?" Sakura said lying. 'Oh, so she doesn't like me that way' Syaoran said looking down sadly. "So Syaoran?" "What do you say?" Yamazaki asking "Huh?" Syaoran said looking at Yamazaki. "Dude are you ok? I said, sine Chihru is moving out, wana move in?" Yamazaki asked. "Oh, naw, I'll stay to help Sakura pay for rent and all" Syaoran said Yamazaki was about to say something when the bell rang...







~- After School -~







Sakura slowly walked out of the school and began walking to the parking lot. when suddenly she heard her name "SAKURA!!" Sakura quickly turned around to see Kimiko running to her. Kimiko was a little short 5'5" and put her jet black hair in a ponytail, she had light orange eyes. 'Oh great' Sakura thought and began to walk off again. Finally when Kimiko was side by side to Sakura she began. "Sakura.. I'm sorry about Saturday" Kimiko began. Sakura just walked on "Look, I know how you much feel, I knew how much you liked Brian, and I'm sorry, but you see" Kimiko said. "I love him, and he loves me" Kimiko said "So please, please don't be upset with me or him." Kimiko continued "I'm sure he didn't mean to" Kimiko finally ended. Sakura stopped walking and looked at Kimiko. Kimiko looked down, with shame, Sakura could tell Kimiko really meant it. "I understand" Sakura said giving her a warm smile. Kimko brought her head up and saw Sakura smiling. "Ya gatta( I'm glad)!" Kimiko said hugging Sakura. " I truly love him" Kimiko said. 'Just like Syaoran' Sakura thought. Sakura suddenly stood in shock hearing what her voice just told her





"Sakura-chan? Daijubu?" Kimiko asked. "Yeah, haha I just wanted to know where Syaoran was" Sakura said. "Last time I saw he was on the field with Brian.." Kimiko said. "NANI!!" Sakura said "Oh my god! Come on Kimiko" Sakura said beginning to run while dragging Kimiko along "Oy Oy! (Hey Hey)" Kimiko began.





~* At the field*~







"What do you want Syaoran?" Brian asked impatiently. Syaoran flared in anger. "Why did you do such a thing?" Syaoran asked. "Huh?" "Oh, you mean the date with Sakura" Brian began. "Simple, I love Kimiko with all my heart" Brian said 'Just like how i love Sakura..' Syaoran thought but then pushed the thought away "But why did you do such a mean thing to Sakura" Syaoran said clutching his fist. "Look, I'm sorry I hurt your girlfriend, but i didn't realize I loved Kimiko until the night before, and after that, everything just sorta blurred.." Brian began Syaoran blushed hearing those words. "She's not my girlfriend!" Syaoran finally said. "And you will pay!" Syaoran said punching him in the face then kicking him in the stomach followed by an ax kick. (A/N: So basiclly Syaoran kicked Brian in the stomach then in the back) Looking at Brian on the ground. Brian got up, he had a bruise on his face. Syaoran was in the middle to wheel kick him when "SYAORAN!!!" Sakura yelled, she quickly used the time card. And ran up to Syaoran. "Syaoran! What do you think you are doing?!" Sakura yelled. " I was getting revenge for you" Syaoran said. Sakura then called back time and whispered we'll talk about this later. Kimiko ran up to Brian and hugged him. "Oh my god! are you all right!?" Kimiko asked frantically. "Yeah, I'm fine. Brian said, I deserved it." He then faced Sakura and looked at her "Sakura, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you" Brian said reaching out his hand Sakura smiled "Its ok, I understand, you two are in love" Sakura said looking at Kimiko, she was still clutching onto Brian. Sakura then reached out her hand and they both shook







~- 20 minutes later at the apartment -~





"Syaoran! What the hell do you think you were doing?" Sakura asked furiously "I was revenging you!" Syaoran asked confused what just happened. "Look, I don't need you to fight my battles for me!! I am sick and tired of you always pretending to act so strong!" "Look I just" but Syaoran was cut off by Sakura "No! You listen here! You aren't that that strong! Got that? I was announced the one who passed the final judgment! Not you! I defeated Eriol! No You! I am the mistress of the cards!!! NOT YOU!!! and you have been training since you were 3!! You're a weakling!" Sakura yelled and finally ended. Syaoran took a step back at his shockness of what she said. It was worse already that Sakura didn't like him that way, now she hated him and worse she rubbed the part that has always haunted his life. "I'm sorry" Syaoran mumbled then walked into his room. After Syaoran left Sakura immediately felt bad for what she said and began to cry a little while walking to her lonely room....





~- 2 hours later -~

Sakura sat on the kitchen table reading a magazine and thinking about Syaoran. Suddenly Syaoran's door opened and Syaoran came out. He then walked to Sakura "Sakura..... I'm moving out...."



SwtKandieSakura: GASP!! OHOHOHHO! Maybe I shouldn't have written more huh?! =)
