Students of the Clow: Ascension II
Chapter 6
Disclaimer: I do not own CCS, although I wish it did
Soon the big day of the fair came. It was a very important night-a night to remember, for this was the night that Sakura and Li went out on their first official date.
Both of them had dressed up in their nicest outfits for the occasion. At first, the date started out pretty mildly. They went on a few rides and had a bite to eat, but not a great deal of romance. In fact, there wasn't even much talking between the two of them. Since it was their first date, they were both a little nervous and unsure about how to go about things. (Especially Sakura.)
At one point during this date, the couple came across a ring toss game and Sakura asked Li if he could possibly win her a stuffed bunny. (Hmmm, something about this sounds freakishly familiar to me... Oh well, it's probably just my imagination.) It took him a number of tries, but Li was eventually successful. Sakura was very thankful for the gift and now had enough courage to hold Li's hand.
It was at this point that they ran into Chelsea and Zachary, two of Sakura's classmates and friends.
"Hey Sakura!" called Chelsea. "That's a great-looking bunny you have!"
"Thanks," replied Sakura. "Actually, Li won it for me."
"Li? I thought he was returning to Hong Kong to stay?" Chelsea then noticed that Sakura and Li were holding hands. "Say... is there something we should know about?"
"Uh, know about?" Sakura said, trying to look innocent (but not doing a good job).
"Yeah, I mean, first we hear that Li's going home, only to find out he's decided to stay here. Secondly, Sakura, ever since you came back from visiting Hong Kong with Li, you've been acting a little suspicious. And now we find you holding hands and winning bunnies for each other. That's got to be more than a coincidence!"
"I smell a conspiracy," Zachary joined in.
Sakura and Li glanced at each other, both thinking the exact same thing: 'Should we tell them?'
"There's no conspiracy," Li finally said. "The truth is, I chose to stay here so I could be with Sakura. You see I'm now her fianc-"
"-Errr, boyfriend!" Sakura cut in. She didn't want to give away TOO much information.
"Fiancer boyfriend?" Chelsea was confused. "What's a 'fiancer boyfriend'?"
"I believe that's what they call boyfriends in Canada," lied Zachary, as usual. "It's a well-known fact that in Canada, all of their money comes in the form of coins. In fact, they even have three-dollar coins with pictures of velociraptors on them! Of course that's nothing compared to-"
"I think we've heard enough from you now," said Chelsea, as she began dragging Zachary away. "Velociraptors on coins... I swear, one of these days YOU'LL be extinct!"
Sakura and Li were left a little puzzled.
"Okay, even I could tell that one was a lie," said Sakura.
"I'm still trying to figure out how that guy can see where he's going when he has his eyes closed all the time," muttered Li. (Isn't it about time SOMEONE mentioned that?)

Well I've finished my exams, which means I should have more time now to work on my writing (and hopefully turn out far better chapters!) R&R!
