Chapter 6 Pairings ^^ Finally, some S&S and E&T Warning: FLUFF!!! (A bit)
Sakura walked down the path back to the Li mansion after see the Hunter "fly off" (evil grin) on the way she met Kero, who was looking for her, the worried guardian flew towards his mistress immediately when he saw her walking down the path.
"Sakura! Where have you been! I was worried sick, I fell asleep in Tomoyo's pocket, and the next thing I remember when I woke up, was that you were gone! Where have you been?" demanded the anxious guardian.
"Whoa! Calm down Kero, I'm fine; I just had a meeting with a Witch-Hunter, that's all. Don't worry, he won't be able to bother us for a ling time." Sakura reassured her Guardian.
Kero still looked a bit worried, but he said nothing more, knowing that his mistress never liked people to question her ability to protect herself. He told his mistress that he was going back to the mansion to tell Tomoyo that she was fine, she was still worried about her friend, and so asked Kero to go search for her. Sakura was left by her own again, walking down the path, under normal circumstances she would be scared of the woods at night, but because she just got one Witch-Hunter out of the way, she put aside her discomfort and continued walking.
~#~ Back at the mansion ~#~
Kero flew in and went to inform a very worried Tomoyo that Cherry was fine, and because they were in an audience he did not use the name Sakura, Tomoyo sighed in relief at hearing that her friend was safe.
"See, I told you that she would be alright," said Eriol reassuringly, "she IS the Card mistress after all."
Then something popped into Tomoyo's mind, she remembered her deal with Eriol when they were walking back to the mansion and she smiled secretly. "Syaoran," she called out sweetly "would you mind going out to get Cherry?"
Eriol started to say that Cherry would be able to take care of herself, then he caught on to what Tomoyo was trying to do and he smiled and said, "I think Tomoyo is right, you SHOULD go and get Cherry because the forest is an easy place to get lost in the dark."
Syaoran was about to protest, but when he saw the look in their eyes he sighed in defeat and left. Kero was about to protest as well, but Tomoyo and Eriol quickly grabbed him to stop what he was about to say. Together, they waved at Syaoran, who was walking out the door.
@~@ Syaoran @~@
Shaking his head in defeat he walked out of the mansion. If I hadn't known Eriol better I would bet that those two are defiantly up to something, I mean, (A/N: Well then, I guess you don't know Eriol as well as you think *evil grin*) I think Cherry can some back safely on her own. He continued walking down the path, still deep in thought when he heard a scream coming from deeper in to the forest path. Quickly he ran down the path to where the scream came from, that voice sounded like Cherry's!
@~@ Syaoran - end. Now it's back to Sakura @~@
Sakura walked along the path leading to the mansion, looking about her, she saw that she was surrounded by trees, it was almost pitch black. The trees looked as if they were black figures dancing in the wind, and it spooked Sakura out, one fear she never got rid of till now, was her fear of ghosts and spirits, all this thanks to her good for nothing brother, Touya. Thinking of Touya made her homesick, she missed her father and brother. Then she saw a white shape in the woods moving and froze in her tracks; "this could not be happening" she said quietly to herself, "there is no ghosts here." Then something flew over her head.
"AHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" her scream pierced the quiet woods.
@~@ Back to normal @~@
When Syaoran arrived, he saw a shaking Cherry kneeling on the ground, hands over her head, when he looked closer, he saw that she had tears in her eyes. Not knowing what to do he knelt beside her and said soothingly, "Don't worry, I'm here now, it was nothing, you don't have to be scared."
On impulse, Cherry threw her arms around Syaoran, holding on for dear life. Syaoran was stunned by her actions, clearly she did not mean it, or did she? Unsure of what to do, Syaoran wrapped his hands around Cherry, making soothing sounds to calm her down.
He had no idea how long he has been in that position, with Cherry holding on to him very tightly. When she finally calmed down, she finally realized that she had been holding on to him for quite a long time. Both realizing their position, they quickly jumped apart both were blushing madly.
~#~ Back at the mansion ~#~
The two people had no idea that they were being watched by Eriol and Tomoyo, (evil, evil) Eriol had produced a watching glass to spy on the pair, and now they were seated around the glass looking at what was happening and practically ignoring a silently fuming Kero. "Kawaii....." Whispered Tomoyo when the pair in the glass jumped apart, their faces beat red.
Eriol smiled to himself, he knew his little descendant would attract towards Cherry. Then he looked over at Tomoyo, who was intently watching what was happening with the pair of embarrassed couples-to-be. Then she felt Eriol's gaze on her and looked up, to find their faces only inches apart. Blushing slightly, she looked back down again, pretending to be looking at the glass, but in truth, she couldn't think, Eriol was too close for her comfort, and he made her stomach do flip-flops. Why was she acting this way towards him? She had only known this man for less than one day and her heart was pounding like mad when he is near. She looked up again, only to find that Eriol had not shifted his gaze from her and that they were closer yet together. Tomoyo's blush deepened and she stood up quickly and backed away, no longer being able to stand it, if she didn't get away from Eriol soon, she is going to do something drastic.
"Are you alright Tomoyo?" Eriol asked, grinning mischievously, he knew exactly what was wrong with Tomoyo.
"Erm.... I'm fine, I think I need to go now, Cherry is going to get suspicious when she comes home and sees us crowded beside a looking glass." Hastily, Tomoyo made an excuse to get away.
Eriol smiled, "yes, I think you're right, I'll escort you to your room then." With that, he stood up and took Tomoyo's hand and started to take her upstairs to her room (which, but the way, is beside his). When they arrived at Tomoyo's room, Eriol stopped in front of her door, she went in and turned to see that he still had not left and was leaning casually on the doorframe.
"Yes?" Tomoyo asked mildly when Eriol made no move to leave.
Eriol smiled, leaned in close to Tomoyo and whispered in her ear, "Why were you blushing?"
Tomoyo blushed again and looked down at her feet, "It's none of your business."
"Isn't it?"
"No!"
"Then why are you blushing now?"
Tomoyo glared at Eriol, but she could not think of a suitable answer, Eriol smiled seeing that Tomoyo was tongue-tied and bent in closer and said, "Do I make you nervous?"
"N - No!" Tomoyo stuttered he was too close! Close the door, that's what she had to do, all she had to do was close the door.
Eriol slipped into Tomoyo's room before she shut the door, and pinned her to the door, with nowhere to escape, Tomoyo could only look at Eriol hopelessly. Eriol smiled and said in a husky whisper, which made Tomoyo's heart skip a beat, "But you make ME nervous, did you know, when you are around, you wash away all my self control?"
Eriol leaned in and kissed Tomoyo softly on the lips and raised his head again, seeing that Tomoyo was too stunned to do anything he leaned in again, this time he kissed her deeper, waiting for her to respond. Tomoyo's mind was in chaos, her thoughts swirled around in her head as Eriol had kissed her, she couldn't do anything, let alone think when he kissed her a second time.
When she finally organized her mind enough to think, she realized that she didn't mind Eriol's kisses, not really, it was quite pleasant. 'What am I thinking!' Tomoyo thought madly to herself, 'there is no way I like him!'
Promptly Tomoyo pushed Eriol away, he smiled and looked at her again, 'she looks so sweet when she blushes' he thought to himself. He smiled a bit mockingly, saluted her and left the room. Tomoyo leaned against the door when Eriol left and let out a sigh, "What have I gotten myself into?"
~#~ Syaoran and Sakura ~#~
"I think.... We had better go back to the mansion," Syaoran began hesitantly.
Sakura could only nod her head, still thinking about what happened, she still needed to calm her racing heart. It wasn't her fault that the white thing scared her, she looked at Syaoran again, and her hands itched to fix his messy brown hair and to put it strait. He looked to handsome though, and he looked completely at ease with the surrounding, Sakura could have done that, if it was not dark, she normally liked the woods, but she just hated ghosts, and dark-woods-in-the-dark just reminded her too much of ghosts.
Syaoran couldn't take the silence any longer, if someone don't speak sooner, he was going to go crazy, but he can't bring himself to break the silence that formed around then. He looked at Cherry again, he always found himself looking at her unconsciously, it's as if he could never keep his eyes from her. She looked beautiful in the moonlight, her honey brown hair slightly reflecting the light, it made her look like an angel, came down from Heaven (A/N: AHHH!!! Cut the flowery speech.... wait, aren't I the one writhing it, oh yah. Never mind). Her eyes, orbs of emerald, that sparked with humor, there was something in those eves that captured his gaze.
Before they both knew it, they were in each other's arms, both were shocked at what had happened but gradually they began to relax in each other's hold. Sakura never felt so secured in a person's arms before, she felt so warm a protected, like all the troubles of the world would be solved with Syaoran by her side. She realized, then and there, that she fit perfectly in his arms, her head just resting at the hollow of his neck, how perfectly they were matched.
"Cherry," Syaoran said, his voice a soft whisper that spoke to her soul, not wanting to break the peace, Syaoran held her more tightly and rested his chin on the top of her head, smelling the faint hint of cherry blossom on her.
"Hum....?" She replied hazily.
Though reluctant, he knew he had to go back, because Tomoyo and Eriol would be worried, "We have to go back soon, they'll be worried."
Sakura sighed, "You're right, we have to go." When she tried to move out of his arms, Syaoran tightened his grip on her, not wanting to move, "Syaoran," Sakura laughed, "if you don't let go of me, then I won't be able to go back."
She glanced up at Syaoran and froze; she saw something, something special, in Syaoran's gaze, and before she could protest, his lips were on hers. Her eyes widened when she felt him kiss her, then gradually she began to relax into the kiss and closed her eyes. Syaoran deepened the kiss, he could not believe how sweet she was, her lips were soft and welcoming, surrendering. They broke the kiss when Sakura thought her lungs would burst.
Syaoran looked down at Sakura, her cheeks were slightly flushed, and her eyes were wide, he had never seen anything this beautiful in his life. Syaoran smiled slightly at the expression on her face, what he just did began to come to his head and he blushed madly. "We had better go," he said for the third time.
Mutely Sakura nodded, and together they made their way back to the mansion.
