Chapter 2: Message from the Cards

~*~*~*~*~

Sakura Kinomoto was frustrated. After all the wonderful things her boyfriend did for her, why couldn't she think of a way to thank him for everything?

"What are you thinking about?" asked a yellow a stuffed toy as it floated to his mistress' eye level.

"Oh Kero, I have no idea what I could do for Syaoran on White Day," she sighed. "There must be something out there."

The first thing you can do is look in your heart," the guardian beast advised. "But if you're still drawing a blank, you could always turn to the Cards.

"That's a great idea!" she exclaimed. "And to show you how grateful I am, I'll bring you some extra pudding!"

"Yeah! Pudding!" Kero cried as he floated in his draw in pure bliss.

"Sakura chuckled as she took out the cards and chanted the incantation. The stack glowed for a moment before she placed the cards in a diamond shape in front of her.

She flipped over the first card.

'Windy,' she thought. 'That means the answer to my problem is close by.'

She flipped over the three cards in the three cards in the centre.

"Song, Voice and Sweet," she read. "What could that mean?"

She flipped over the two cards in the second row.

"Silent and Flower," she said. "How can these two work together?"

She flipped over the cards in the fourth row.

'Sand and Sword,' she pondered. 'This keeps getting stranger and stranger.'

She flipped over the last card on the bottom.

It was the Return Card. Somehow she knew that was the key to solve the cryptic message of the cards.

Suddenly, everything fell into place, and she knew exactly what the cards were trying to tell her.

The first thing she had to do was make a phone call.

~*~(White Day)~*~

"Where are you taking me?" asked Syaoran as he was being led somewhere by Sakura. "Can't you just give me a clue?"

His fiancée turned around and kissed both his cheeks, making him blush. "I'll give you two," she said. "The Flower Card and the Silent Card."

"Are we going to the elementary school?" he asked as Sakura shook her head negative. "How about museum? That's where the Silent Card was captured."

"Seriously Syaoran," started off Sakura as she rolled her eyes. "Think outside of the box! Now, there's no point for you to guess any longer because we're all ready here."

Syaoran looked in front of him, only to see an ordinary door. However, he realized that appearances are deceiving when he followed Sakura down the stairs.

The whole floor was a café of some sort with a refreshment stand on the side. Couches were scattered around, and couples were having intimate conversations as they cuddled with one and other. The lights were dimmed, creating a relaxing, or sensual, atmosphere. Opposite from the refreshment stand stood a stage in the spotlight with a microphone patiently waiting for anyone who was interested in performing.

"Wow Sakura," the Chinese teen murmured, not wanting to raise his voice. "How did you find this place?"

"It's somewhere that I stumbled across one day," she answered. "I was waiting for the right time to show you."

"I understand your clues now," he stated. "The Flower Card loves being around people while the Silent Card likes to keep thing quiet."

Sakura smiled at him to confirm his answers as she playfully reached to muddle his soft hair.

"Now can you guess why I brought you here?" she asked. Sakura giggled when Syaoran's eyes begged her for some more clues. "Okay! Your clues are the Song Card, the Voice Card and the Sweet Card."

Syaoran turned pale, as his eyes grew wide. "Y-you brought me here t-to s- sing?" he stuttered.

His fiancée giggled at his comportment. The mighty Li Clan warrior was afraid to sing a song in public.

"No, no, silly," she chided, nuzzling his jaw to comfort him. "Today is your day for me to do something special for you."

Before Syaoran could ask, she pushed him down on a vacant couch, and she turned in the other direction to head towards the limelight.

"Hi everybody. My name is Sakura, and first of all, I want to wish everybody a happy White day," she said in the microphone. "I want to sing this song for my fiancée. Syaoran, I love you."

Sakura picked the song she wanted to sing from the karaoke machine. The soft melody echoed in the room, and when the teen began to sing, there was no need for her to look at the words because she knew them by heart. The she sang about two friends that were turned into lovers, and after being separated for years, they finally managed to return to one and other to start their new lives together.

Syaoran was mesmerized with the loveliness of Sakura's voice. She sang the song like an angel, and she looked twice as beautiful on the stage. The amber-eyed teen couldn't wait to kiss the enticing lips that crooned the lyrics. Never breaking eye contact with his Cherry Blossom, he slowly got up and walked towards her. Just as Sakura was repeating the chorus one last time, Syaoran slipped his hand in hers, and kissed her palm, making the emerald-eyed beauty shiver with delight. When the song was over, Syaoran kissed Sakura right in front of everyone without thinking twice. The crowd cheered as the couple bashfully made their way back to the couch.

"That was amazing!" Syaoran complimented. "All right, so that's where the Song Card and the Voice Card fitted in. How about the Sweet Card?"

"One moment please!" Sakura said in a singsong voice as she made her way to the refreshment stand. Syaoran grinned when she came back.

"Aww, how sweet! A box of chocolates!" he mimicked playfully, tugging Sakura down on the couch with him. "You know me so well."

Sakura laughed because that's exactly what she would have said if Syaoran did the same thing for her. She picked up the first piece, and hovered it in front of his lips. But before he could bite it, she quickly pulled back and popped it in her mouth. It was just too tasty to resist.

Syaoran took the second piece, and offered it to Sakura. Suspicious at first, she leaned in, only to have her Little Wolf pulling it back and eating it himself.

When the chocolate was finished, Syaoran decided that it was the best kind he had ever eaten.

"Hey Sakura, what brand of chocolate was that?" he asked.

Sakura's eyes twinkled. "Did you like it?"

"Sure I did!" Syaoran tried to think of all the kinds of chocolate he had, but nothing compared to what Sakura just gave him.

"I made it myself," she claimed proudly as she started to tell Syaoran why she made the special chocolate in the first place.

* Three Weeks Ago *

"Do you know what I love?" Syaoran asked out of the blue while they were studying for a math test together.

"You mean aside from me?" Sakura put in innocently, earning a kiss from Syaoran.

"Yeah, aside from you," began the teen. "I love chocolate. It's almost as sweet as you are."

"Now that was unexpected," Sakura muttered under her breath as she decided to take a break and cuddled in Syaoran's waiting arms.

Leaning back on the couch, Syaoran massaged her scalp, making hr let out a small moan of pleasure. He leaned forward until his lips were beside her ear.

"It also melts in my hands, just like you're doing now," he murmured. "Let's not forget my mouth."

To prove his statement, be began to kiss her slowly on her lips, unwilling to break apart right away.

"But chocolate isn't as special as you are," he insisted. "I have your heart forever while chocolate keeps leaving me when ever I'm finished with it. That's why I love you the most."

Sakura giggled as she wrapped her arms around his neck to bring him closer.

"What if I made the chocolates myself?" she asked.

"Well, then they're going to be special too," he answered. "But never as special as you, my love."

* End of flashback *

"So that's the reason why you made the chocolates?" questioned Syaoran as he and Sakura got up to leave."

"Among other things," she replied with a mysterious smile on her lips, making Syaoran curious.

"What does that mean?" he asked as he held the door open for her on their way out.

"Thanks. That means that chocolate can have more than one uses to it," she began. "Aside from a treat, chocolate can also be used as an aphrodisiac."

"What?" Syaoran was speechless.

"You know, an emotion enhancer." Sakura was having a blast pushing Syaoran's buttons. "Oh sweetie, you're just too much fun to tease!"

~*~(Syaoran's House)~*~

"So is this the end?" asked Syaoran as they both went under the threshold. "I have a feeling that there's still more."

"You're right about that," answered Sakura. "Would you be able to guess what it is if I tell you that the Sand Card and the Sword Card are your clues?"

The Chinese teen thought over the information and then his amber eyes began to sparkle.

"The Sand Card recognized both of us as its masters when we first caught it," he began. "So does that mean you're challenging me to a duel?"

"You're right!" she praised. "Just because your favorite sparing partner is in Hong Kong doesn't mean that you can't practice with anyone else."

"Okay, but just because I love you doesn't mean I'll be easy on you," he warned. "So you better stand on guard."

"I should say the same to you!" she retorted lightheartedly, transforming her Star Key into a staff and then calling upon the Sword Card to transform it into her weapon. Syaoran did the same with his pendant as it materialized in a sword.

The duel began, and Syaoran stuck to his word, as he never let Sakura have the upper hand. The swiped, blocked and parried for five minutes without breaking a sweat. Finally, Syaoran cornered Sakura against the wall with his sword in the last position before ending the match.

"Are you ready to give up?" he asked with a playful smirk.

"You've got to be kidding," she replied as she leaned over to whisper something in his ear.

Syaoran's eyes widen, and before he could stutter her name in shock, Sakura took advantage of the situation to pin her opponent on the floor.

"Sa-Sakura!" he stumbled in disbelief. "How could you say something so...so..."

"Kinky?" she finished with a giggle. "I had to use all of my resources if I wanted to beat you!"

"Aww, come here, you," he said as he pulled her down to kiss her waiting lips.

Sakura welcomed his kiss whole-heartedly as it seems that every embrace kept getting sweeter.

She didn't mind when Syaoran rolled her over, becoming the one on the top. She accepted his hands massaging her sides, but in the end it was already too late to get away when Syaoran had his hands on more sensitive flesh. She couldn't stop laughing.

"Traitor!" she yelled in between her bursts of laughter as she was trying to get away from his dancing fingers. "I bet you're the only one who'd turn a make-out session in a tickle fest!"

"After what you just said to me when I was winning the sword fight, I think you deserve exactly what you're getting!" he insisted. "By the way, I'm having a great time!"

The clock chimed and the couple sighed, knowing that their time together was coming to an end.

"May I walk you home?" asked Syaoran as he helped Sakura off the floor.

"That would be great!" she answered. "So how did you like your White Day?"

Syaoran grinned as he placed his arms around Sakura to dip her down and give her a kiss right out of the movies.

"I liked it very much," he answered as he gazed into her glittering emerald eyes. "I can tell that you used the advice that magic gave you to plan this day, but how did you understand what the cards were trying to tell you?"

"The last card that I flipped over was the Return Card," she explained. "That's when I understood what the meanings of the Silent, Flower and the Sand cards were about. I had to think back to when I first captured them."

Syaoran placed Sakura back on her feet, and then he went to get their coats. He thought about everything she did for him that day, and once again, he thanked the stars to have someone as special as Sakura in his life.

When they got to the Kinomoto residence, Syaoran gave Sakura a kiss on her forehead, making her giggle. Before turning around to go inside, she gave Syaoran one last hug.

"I had a lot today," she said as he nestled her in his arms. "I'm glad you had a nice White Day, darling."
