He mounted the horse and hit it's behind. The gold he had in his pockets jingled. The horse kicked open it's door, it's black eyes blinded by the sudden light.
"I'm going to kill that Pianist if it's the last thing I do. No one takes my sister and lives to tell about it."

Syaoran whisked around quickly and went over to Sakura and the horse. He gave her a small smile, it made her melt like a chocolate and vanilla twisted sundae on a hot afternoon.
"So Syaoran, when a-" His face came closer- "Ahh... When are we going to-to make it t-t-there?" She stammered because of the way he was getting so close. Sakura's heart was pounding, her muscles tense and tightened.
"Make it where, Kini?" Syaoran's voice seductive, low and sexy. He took his hand and pushed back the hair on her face so he could see her eyes.
'SYAORAN! NO BLUSHING! THIS IS A GAME! YOU KNOW IT!' He screamed at himself mentally trying to keep up the act. If he could win this, life would be so much easier. There would be less of a burden between them.
Sakura heard that heart melting voice, that way he almost cooed her name, the nick name he gave her, it was sending chills, no icebergs down her spine and neck. The closeness of his face, she could almost feel his hot breath against her skin. She could smell him, something was awakening inside her.
'WOAH! SAKURA!!! CALM YOUR SELF!!! HE'S ONLY A PIANIST!' She scream painfully in her mind. 'CALM YOUR DAM SELF DOWN! HE'S PLAYING A GAME! AND YOU KNOW IT!' She shot a glare at him that suprised Syaoran and he shot back.
"So, what's with all the closeness Gaki?" She said playfully again. Syaoran sighed, she was NEVER serious! How was he going to get her to, *lose* if she always took it as a joke. Syaoran of all people, the one side of him Sakura didn't know, wasn't even able to shine through. He hated it!!!
"Why are you never serious?" It slipped out of his mouth before he could stop it.
"Serious?" Sakura's smile got a little larger, which seemed pretty impossible. "That's a good one! Me, serious!" She slapped his head and it made his hair stand on end in an akward way.
( SYAORAN'S FACIAL EXPRESSION ) T.T
"Sakura!"
"OOOO!! Ja, I didn't answer it. Me serious? Nah, boring! Not fun..." She kept blabbing not allowing Syaoran to get in one word.
"Your a Princess! You should be serious!" He yelled again.
"Stop yelling Syao! It's too loud, you might as well wake up the whole forest, and get us hurt! You don't know if-" Her smile faded into a frown. "If there are more robbers in this place." She looked up at him with much emotion burning in her eyes. "You could get-" She stopped, looking down.
"Get what?" He came closer again but this time it wasn't meant to be annoying. But he didn't really notice it anyway.
"hurt..." She squeeked silently.
"Sakura." This was a moment which none of them both really expected. He wrapped his arms around her petite waist, she put her long arms around his unusually strong neck. Syaoran brang them both closer in a hug, which was totally off gaurd. Sakura rested her head on his shoulder, he just tried not to squeeze her too hard.
A feeling overtook the both of them. The moment seemed to blaze and steam.
"I won't-" Syaoran felt something soft and warm. It made him feel all tingly inside. It only made him hunger her, want her.Their lips were locked, she could feel his warm lips. Sakura was left in a state of shock, not only was she a Princess forbidden to a man not of royalty, but she had made the first move! She wanted to deepen the kiss, why was she being so, WIERD?! Syaoran could taste her lips practically. The scent of her auburn hair filled his mind. Why were they kissing? Was this- Syaoran's eyes shot open and he pulled away.
His face showed pure terror. Why terror? Had she done something wrong? Distance seemed to grow between them. "No..." Sakura whispered.
Syaoran's POV
O my god. She's sh-e's kissing me! This isn't what i've tried so hard NOT to do! O yay! Now I can taste her sweet...Ahh!!!, I felt myself pull way quickly. This just wasn't right. I knew my face was screwed up, I can see her deep, empty gems? Why are her eyes so, they look lost. Should I tell her? Tell her who I am? Maybe it'll enlighten the moment?
But what if she, she runs. I think, this kiss wasn't suppossed to happen! Why now?!
She won this round...
End of POV
Sakura's face turned quickly from him. She jumped off the horse and began to walk in the direction they were headed. She couldn't take what she had done! They, they were friends. If only she held the emotions she had blocked, incased in her thriving heart. She needed someone to love. Not in a family love way.
She wanted someone who loved her not because they were of their own, but because she was Sakura. Not Sakura Kinomoto the princess. But just plain, simple Sakura. She thought Syaoran knew it. But, why had he pulled away? Was he only acting that way because he was a flirt!?
'I thought he had the same feelings.' She thought. She could feel her heart bleed, someone had stuck a dagger in her. The love poured out, she couldn't love him. She had to make her father happy. Love isn't everything, no. Love is just a hopless feeling you have on some days, and then after they just leave you because some other more unique, interesting girl comes along. She thought Syaoran was different. But his amber eyes, that orange glow they seem to portray. They-
Her legs took her far, far from the spot where they had been. She just couldn't face him. Should she apologize?
Sakura's feet stopped instantly and she looked back. She could see Syaoran hunched over slightly, he was sighing heavily. He kept running his hand through his hair, then he'd run both hands through his hair. She could see his feet kind of twirling in the sand, slowly.
He seemed stressed. But she wasn't going to go back, she would keep a safe distance away. The tension was just too, unnatural for her. The silence they would probably experience, the only reason she was acting so childish and annoying was- It was the only way to hide her feelings.
But she had no feelings for him. None what so ever! Why did she do it? Something pushed her ahead. It wasn't love, love doesn't happen. She looked away, it pained her.
*Back to Syaoran*
"Stupid me, stupid me." He repeated over and over. "Why did I pull away!!!" He turned quickly and almost lost balance.
"Jeez!" He ran his fingers through his caramel coloured hair. He knew this would have a huge impact on the journey they were taking. If only he had decided NOT to play that stupid game and make her do something so rash. Maybe it was becauase she liked him?
"Nooo.." He murmured. "She only wanted to win, many women I know are like that. Alway's their way..." Suddenly their gaze locked. He could see her eyes, she could see his.
"What am I going to do," The both of them said in unision at the same time from opposite ends.
