Chapter Three: Who knows?


Syaoran was up and in his garden with his sword. He had practicing to do. He had been so bored that he had forgotten it. He thought it was best he did it in the morning before the girls woke up.

"Girls are funny things," said Syaoran.

"You're telling me," said a voice.

Syaoran turned around. No one was there. He stood with his sword is battle pose.

"Whatever is out there come out," said Syaoran.

Something whisked past him.

"Come out," Syaoran yelled.

"Here I am," said the voice.

"Oh my gosh," said Syaoran looking at the hideous monstrosity, "What the heck are you?"

"Glad you asked. I am a werewolf," said the werewolf.

"Get away from me," said Syaoran seeing a flashback of himself as a werewolf. =The dream!= he thought.

"No, I don't think I will," said the werewolf.

Syaoran took a swipe at him with his sword and was in turn hit in the back with a stunning blow.

"Not so tough are you Future Head of the Li Clan," said the werewolf.

Syaoran took another swipe and cut the arm of the werewolf.

"Now get out of my home," said Syaoran.

"No," said the werewolf.

Syaoran took his sword and with a swift move cut as his ankle. Not to badly injure him but to get him away.

"Get out," said Syaoran.

"No," said the werewolf running at him.

The werewolf threw a punch at him and he took the werewolf's arm and turned him upside down.

"This isn't over Syaoran, I'll be watching you" said the werewolf running.

"And I'll be waiting," Syaoran called out.

"I have to go tell my mother," he said.

He ran into the house and went to the study.

"Mother," he said.

"Syaoran, not now, I'm very busy with business," she said.

"It's very important," said Syaoran.

"What is it," she said looking up from her desk.

"I was just attacked by a werewolf," he said.

"You were what?!" she said.

"Attacked by werewolf," he said.

"Oh my gosh, we need extra security around here," said Yelan, "and other precautions are needed and what else what else…"

"Should I go now," said Syaoran.

"Yes," said Yelan picking up the phone.

Syaoran exited the room. =I hope that never happens again.= he thought, =But if I'm with someone I'll probably be fine=

"Good morning Li-kun," said Sakura coming out of her bedroom fully dressed.

"Oh hey, good morning to you too kinomoto-chan," said Syaoran.

"You can call me Sakura," said Sakura.

"And you can call me by my first name too," said Tomoyo yawning.

"And you guys can call me Syaoran," said Syaoran.

"Great, anyways you wanna go hang out at the mall today," asked Sakura.

"Sure, Tomoyo are you coming too?" asked Syaoran.

"No, I've got some reading I have to do," said Tomoyo.

"Really? That's too bad," said Sakura.

"Yeah," said Syaoran.

"Anyways let's go for breakfast," said Tomoyo.

"Sure," said Sakura.

So the three walked down to the dining hall. On the table was an elaborate breakfast. Muffins of all kinds, white, whole wheat and multigrain toast, waffles and pancakes pilled high and fresh squeezed orange juice.

"Wow," said Sakura sitting down.

"Wow?" said Syaoran looking at her sitting on the other side of her.

"I've never see this much food for like a small group of people," said Sakura.

"Oh, okay," said Syaoran.

So the three sat down and ate and talked for about and hour and finally decided that they were full and Sakura and Syaoran were going to go to the mall.

"You sure you're not coming?" asked Sakura putting on her shoes.

"Yeah I'm sure," said Tomoyo, "You go have fun."

"We'll see you later then," said Syaoran.

"Yup, bye!" said Tomoyo.

"Bye Tomoyo," they both said closing the door behind them.

"They are quite a cute couple, I like him more than Ben," said Tomoyo going to room.

So Syaoran and Sakura were walking down the path.

"So do you want to walk or take the limo," asked Syaoran.

"How far it is?" she asked.

"About 6, maybe 7 blocks," said Syaoran.

"Well it is hot out, does your limo have Air Conditioning?" she asked.

"Yeah," he said.

"Well let's take the limo. I'm not lazy or anything but I've never been in a limo before," said Sakura.

"Well then I'll tell the people at the gate to get the limo ready," said Syaoran smiling.

"Cool," said Sakura as they got to the front gate.

"Please get the limo ready George, we're going to the mall," said Syaoran.

"Yes sir," said George picking up the telephone.

Within two minutes the limo was in front of them.

"After you," said Syaoran.

"Thanks," said Sakura.

Syaoran climbed into the Limo.

"Wow," said Sakura sitting down.

"Nice? Isn't it?" said Syaoran.

"Yes, very nice," said Sakura.

"So you've never been in a limo before?" asked Syaoran.

"Nope never," said Sakura.

"Wanna a drink?" he asked.

"Sure," she said watching him go over to a mini cooler.

"What would you like? Coke, Sprite? We have pretty much everything.

"Do you have Mountain Dew?" she asked.

"Yeah, here you go," he said handing her a pop.

"So you have this limo always?" she asked.

"Yeah," he said.

"It must be nice for road trips," she said.

"I wouldn't know," he said.

"What do you mean?" she asked.

"I've never taken a road trip before," he said.

"Really?" Sakura said.

"Yeah, when we go to places we go by plane with a short ride to the airport," said Syaoran.

"Oh, that's cool," said Sakura taking a sip of her pop.

"We've arrived," said the driver over the intercom.

"Thank you," said Syaoran getting out of the Limo.

"So what do you want to do?" Syaoran asked.

"I don't know you tell me," said Sakura.

"We could see a movie or we could go to the playdium and play video games, or…" said Syaoran.

"The Playdium sounds like a great idea," said Sakura.

"Great then," said Syaoran.

So the Playdium was down on the other side of the mall so the two walked down the corridors of the mall talking about school and things. Suddenly Syaoran saw Whitney.

"Umm… Let's go in here," said Syaoran practically pushing Sakura into the first store he saw.

"Syaoran, what's going on," Sakura said.

"What do you mean?" he said nevously.

"I mean coming into this store, something's up," said Sakura.

"I wanted to look in here," he said scratching the back of his head.

"We're in a store full purses," she said.

"Yeah…Oh crap," said Syaoran.

"What's going on," said Sakura.

"Well, umm… I saw an ex-girlfriend of mine. I saw her yesterday too and kinda told her I had a girlfriend," said Syaoran.

"So?" said Sakura.

"I don't," said Syaoran.

"Oh I see," said Sakura, "So you don't want to face her since you lied to her. Man you are a wimp."

"Hey I am no wimp, I have my reasons and you don't even know the whole story," said Syaoran.

"Why don't you tell me then," said Sakura.

"In short, we had something special and when she left, she said some pretty nasty things to me and she told me that she'd come back and maybe we could pick up where we left off and I told her no and that if she ever came back that I would have a girl who was worthy of being my girlfriend and future head of the Li Clan," said Syaoran really fast.

"I see, well I can't blame you. You have your pride after all. Still lying isn't the answer," said Sakura.

"I know but…" said Syaoran.

"Hey Syaoran, is that you!" said a voice.

"Oh no," said Syaoran putting his hand over his eyes and shaking his head.

"Hello Whitney," said Syaoran.

"So this your girlfriend. The worthy one?" Whitney asked.

"Well umm…" stammered Syaoran.

"Yes I am," said Sakura.

"Pleased to meet you," said Whitney.

Syaoran just kinda stood with his mouth open for a while.

"My isn't she cute," said Whitney turning to Syaoran.

"Yeah," said Syaoran.

"Yeah Syaoran and I are very happy together," said Sakura.

"Oh are you?" said Whitney.

"Oh yes. Very happy together. She's the love of my life," said Syaoran putting his arm around her.

"I'm glad you've found someone," said Whitney.

"Yeah me too," said Syaoran.

"So where is your guy?" asked Sakura.

"Oh he's just in one of the shops," said Whitney, "So how long have you been dating?"

"Oh about a year now right," said Sakura looking at Syaoran.

"Yeah, I'd say about that," said Syaoran.

"I doubt this will last," said Whitney.

"Why do you say that?" asked Sakura pulling away from Syaoran.

"If you have any sense you'll dump him like I did," said Whitney.

"I would never do that," said Sakura, "I love him."

"Yeah, prove it," said Whitney.

"Fine," said Sakura and she went over to Syaoran and started kissing him. Sakura put her arms around his neck and he put his hands around her waist.

Whitney stood there with a look of shock and disgust on her face.

"Well I never," said Whitney.

Sakura pulled away from Syaoran.

"Yeah I bet you never did anything like that before when you and Syaoran were going out," said Sakura.

"Well no," said Whitney.

"Well see that's how much we love each other. So much that we aren't afraid to show it in public," said Sakura.

"Yeah," said Syaoran.

"Well I have to go now," said Whitney.

"Bye!" said Sakura going back over to Syaoran and kissing him again. =3, 2, 1= thought Sakura.

Whitney turned around as she stormed down the mall corridor. When Whitney was far out of site Sakura stopped.

"Woah," said Syaoran, "I mean thank you, I don't think that's there is any doubt in her mind that you're my girlfriend."

"Yeah I am one heck of an actress aren't I?" said Sakura wiping her mouth.

"Oh yeah," said Syaoran, "I think we convinced everyone." Syaoran looked around.

"What do you mean?" asked Sakura looking around a realized what he meant. They had people starting at them.

Sakura gave a nervous laugh.

"Yeah I don't doubt anyone doubts it," said Sakura.

"So do you want to go to the Playdium now?" asked Syaoran.

"Sure," said Sakura.

"What if we see Whitney again? What are we going to do?" asked Syaoran.

"Well I dunno. We'll figure that out if we see her again," said Sakura.

"Alright," said Syaoran grabbing Sakura and dipping her, "I think this might be a good idea."

Sakura started to laugh. "Yeah, I can see this working out," she said smiling.

"So do you have Playdiums in Canada?" asked Syaoran.

"Yeah we have on in Metro Town Mall," said Sakura.

"Cool," said Syaoran.

"So here we are," said Syaoran.

"Woah, this is bigger than the one in Metro Town Mall," said Sakura.

"Really?" said Syaoran.

"Yeah," said Sakura.

"Well let's go in then," said Syaoran.

"How much time are you going to be playing here?" asked the cashier.

"How long do you wanna spend here?" asked Syaoran.

"How about two hours?" said Sakura.

"Two play cards for two hours," said Syaoran.

"Syaoran, I have money I'll pay for my own," said Sakura.

"No, it's ok, I'll pay for you, after all you are my guest and I insist," said Syaoran.

"Well if you insist, fine," said Sakura.

"Okay then," said Syaoran turning to the cashier, "How much?"

"$60 dollars," said the cashier "Cash or Credit Card?"

"Credit card, do you take Master Card?" he asked.

"Yes," said the cashier taking the card from Syaoran.

The cashier handed back the card and gave him two play cards.

"Here you go," said Syaoran.

"Thanks," said Sakura.

"Your welcome," said Syaoran.

"Funny seeing you here," said a voice.

"Oh no not again, doesn't she have a life," said Syaoran.

"That not a nice thing to say," said Whitney.

"Well you're not a very nice person either," said Sakura.

"Whatever, anyways, this is Marshall," said Whitney.

"Hey," said Marshall.

Syaoran put his arms around Sakura.

"I see Marshall isn't holding you like Syaoran is," said Sakura, "You must have a great relationship."

"As a matter of fact we do," said Whitney, "We're just not as showy as you are," said Whitney.

"Well I believe if you love someone you should show it," said Sakura turning around to Syaoran and starting kissing him again.

Syaoran gently pulled away from the kiss and looked deep into her eyes, "I love you, you know."

"And I love you two," said Sakura kissing him again.

"You make me sick," said Whitney.

"Oh right you're still here," said Sakura turning around.

"But we were just leaving," said Marshall.

"I'm not finished…." said Whitney.

"Oh yes you are, we're going," said Marshall, "Nice meeting you, I'll see you later."

"Yeah nice meeting you too Marshall," said Sakura.

"Let's go my dear," said Syaoran loud enough so Whitney could hear. With that he swept Sakura off her feet and into his arms. Whitney turned around at seeing this and saw Sakura in his arms.

"Stupid Bastard," said Whitney.

"Come on be nice," said Marshall, "that guy isn't someone to mess with."

"Did you do what I asked," said Whitney.

"Yes, I've been watching him. I even attacked him today. He's strong, I have a cut on my arm and on my leg to prove it," said Marshall.

"Well you don't have to be a wimp about it. You'll just go back at another time when he doesn't have his sword," said Whitney.

"How did you know he had a sword," said Marshall.

"Well if you go in the morning he's training with is sword," said Whitney.

"Now you tell me," said Marshall.

"Sorry," said Whitney.

"It's ok," said Marshall.

"Anyways will you please pretend a little further that you're my boyfriend," said Whitney.

"Like do what?" asked Marshall.

"I dunno hold me, you don't have to go as far as kissing me if you don't want to," said Whitney.

"Kissing? Like this," said Marshall grabbing Whitney and giving her a passionate kiss.

"Yeah," said Whitney, "That what I meant."

"Yeah I'll do that," said Marshall.

"Thanks," said Whitney.

When they were far away Syaoran put Sakura down again.

"Man this is fun," said Sakura.

"It is," said Syaoran.

"We should go play the games though," said Sakura.

"Yeah," said Syaoran.

So the two ran around the Playdium for hours and had the most fun that they had, had all summer. They went and played all the games and ate lunch in the restaurant part. Finally their two hours were up and they decided that it was time they left.

"Man that was so much fun!" said Sakura.

"Yeah it was. This day has got to be best I've had all summer," said Syaoran.

"Yeah me too," said Sakura looking at Syaoran. =Man he's kinda cute.=

"So what are we going to do now?" asked Syaoran. =She's so beautiful.=

"A movie or we could go look for Whitney and bug her,' said Sakura.

"Sounds tempting but somehow I know we won't have to look for her," said Syaoran.

"That's true, she just kinda pops up everywhere. Let's go see a movie then," said Sakura.

"Sounds cool, which one?" asked Syaoran.

"How about 'On the Line' that looks like a good one," said Sakura.

"Sure," said Syaoran. =I hope we don't see Whitney again. She is such a pain. Though I might get a kiss from Sakura again if we did. Oh well.=

So they walked down the corridors of the mall once again talking and laughing getting to know each very well.

Meanwhile Whitney was following them.

"Why are we doing this?" asked Marshall.

"I want to know what they're up to," said Whitney.

"Why do you care," said Marshall.

"I don't know," said Whitney. =That should be me= she thought.

"No it shouldn't," said Marshall.

"What?" said Whitney looking at him.

"It shouldn't be you, you guys don't belong together," said Marshall.

"How did you hear that?" asked Whitney.

"Once in a while I can hear people's thoughts," said Marshall.

"Well don't listen to mine!" snapped Whitney.

"Whatever, I can't help it," said Marshall.

"So anyways since you're a well…you know. Can you hear what they're saying?" asked Whitney.

"No, but I can try hear what they're saying," said Marshall.

"Well try then then! See what they're doing, where they're going," said Whitney.

"Fine," said Marshall.

"Well what are they saying?" asked Whitney.

"They're going to a movie. They're going to see something line," said Marshall.

"Oh they must be going to see 'On the Line'," said Whitney, "Then we're going too."

"Can't we just leave them alone?" asked Marshall.

"No, she doesn't deserve him. She shouldn't be head of the Li Clan. It should be me!" said Whitney.

"Oh brother," said Marshall. =How did he ever love her?!=

Getting back to Sakura and Syaoran.

Syaoran sensed Whitney's presence so he swept Sakura off her feet again and started to kiss her. Sakura realized what he was doing and why right away. When they stopped they gazed deep into each other's eyes.

"We're being watched," whispered Syaoran.

"Yeah I kinda realized it,' said Sakura smiling.

Whitney of course saw all of this. If you had seen the look on her face, you would've laughed your head off.

"Ya know if I screamed out that I loved you that would get her pretty mad," said Syaoran.

"Who's stopping you?" said Sakura.

"Alright then," said Syaoran looking at her, "I LOVE SAKURA! SHE IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GIRL ON THE PLANET."

"And don't you ever forget it!" said Sakura.

"What a disgusting outbreak of human behaviour!" said Whitney.

"For Pete's sake. Give it up. You'll never have him. He loves her too much," said Marshall.

"But I want him. He's mine, I had him first!" whined Whitney.

"But you have me my dear," said Marshall dipping her.

"Stop that," said Whitney giggling.

"I can't help myself, you are so beautiful," said Marshall.

"Really?" said Whitney.

"Well, it's debatable," said Marshall.

"Man you can be such a jerk," said Whitney smiling.

"But I am such a good looking jerk," said Marshall.

"I will give you that," said Whitney.

"So are we still going to go spy on them?" asked Marshall.

"Well I don't know, I still don't want to leave them alone," said Whitney.

"You are hopeless," said Marshall bringing her back up finally.

"I know, but I can't help it," said Whitney.

"Come on, let's just go back to the hotel," said Marshall.

"No, no, I want to go watch the movie and watch them," said Whitney.

"No we're not going to go," said Marshall picking up Whitney in his arms.

"Hey put me down," said Whitney.

"No we're going to back to the hotel," said Marshall.

"Please put me down," said Whitney.

"No, I don't think I will. I think I would rather kiss you," said Marshall and with that he brought Whitney close to his face and started kissing her.

"Would you look at that," said Sakura.

"Yeah, maybe if we're lucky she's moved on," said Syaoran.

"Yeah, maybe," said Sakura.

"Anyways let's go see that movie," said Syaoran.

"Okay," said Sakura.

So the two of them walked into the theatre to see a movie, by themselves.

Meanwhile Whitney and Marshall were still kissing. Finally Marshall pulled away gently.

"Now can we please go back to the hotel," said Marshall.

"Yeah, sure," said Whitney slightly amazed.

"Good now can I put you down or do I have to carry you," said Marshall.

"I'm fine, I'll walk," said Whitney. =I've never seen Marshall like this before= she thought.

"Good," said Marshall. =Whitney can be such a pain. But I must say that I love her lots. Boy am I crazy= he thought.

So the two walked off totally crazy for each other, though neither one of them showed it as they walked in silence back to their hotel room.

"I'll talk to you later," said Whitney going to her room.

"Ok," said Marshall sitting down on the couch with the remote.

Whitney sighed. =This could never work out.=

Author's Note: What did you think? I had to end it somewhere or it would go on forever! I'm sure that Syaoran and Sakura sure fooled them, but who are they fooling? Them or themselves? Anyways stay tuned for another chapter coming on the way soon!
