reader: I have been waiting for someone like you. I myself think this fic boring. Nothing happens and it's going along too slowly but I suppose no one but you has noticed yet. And about "lin". I'm sick of people acting stupid/demanding when they review and expect me to shrug it off or do as they say. Like I said in my reply to her/him/it, if she/he/it had asked nicely then I would have considered it or said "We'll see" or something like "You'll have to wait and see, but i'm sure you'll like the way things turn out" and so on. Anywho! Glad I have an HONEST review among my other reviews. Thanx for the semi-flame. [I have my suspicions...]

I didn't even IMPLY it. Infact I think ALL my stories suck ass. The only reason I continue to write them is because they prove as a distraction and other people seem to enjoy them SOMEWHAT. If you would have been patient instead of going around and demanding things, I'm pretty sure you would have, at the least, not detested the out come of this story. At the LEAST.

"Alright kid. I need to get some sleep now," said Xiaolong, exiting the huge walk-in closet where he had changed into his boxers.
"Oh alright. Which side of the bed you want? Right or left?" Umi asked, patting the surface of the bed.
"What?! Hell no! You have to go sleep in the room Wei prepared for you."
"He didn't prepare me a room," smiled the girl, slipping underneath the thin covers.
"How would you know? You've been in here the whole time," he retorted, throwing the covers off of her.
"Oh trust me, I know."
"Well we'll just see about that!" Exclaimed the handsome hunk, throwing his bedroom door open, disappearing down the hallway.
-Two Seconds Later-
Xiaolong returned to his room, slamming the door behind him, muttering all the while.
"Can't believe I'm stuck with the girl...why couldn't Sakura just...woulda made more sense...just my luck...8 year old kid...my reputation"
He continued to mumble as he flipped the light switch off and slowly made his way to the other side of the bed, his knee bumping into the dresser.
"Fuck! Piece of shit!"
Umi giggled lightly.
"So you think it's funny do you?" He snapped grumpily, proceeding to fumble his way over to the bed.
"Pretty much," she laughed, shifting slightly so she could keep the young man in view.
"Alright! That's it! You're sleeping on the floor you stupid 8 year old kid!" He yelled, flicking on the bedside lamp.
Xiaolong turned to look at the "stupid 8 year old girl", but she wasn't there. There was nothing on his bed. No one.
"What? So now you can disappear too?!?!" He yelled to no one in particular. Frustrated, he turned the lamp off and crawled into bed, suddenly feeling very alone without the company of the little girl.
He was just about to cross over into the dream world when he felt something light jump up onto his bed. The handsome young man, still half asleep, raised his head slightly and came face to face with a light-blue-eyed kitten with bluish-black fur.
"Oh...Just a...cat," he yawned, absentmindedly petting the creature as he quickly slipped into a deep sleep.
*
"God Syaoran! Where are you? You were supposed to be back tonight..." whispered Sakura, pulling the covers over her head. "I miss you so," she breathed, succumbing to the warm feeling of nothingness a dream-less sleep often brings.
-Early The Next Morning-
Xiaolong smiled, snuggling a bit closer, burying his face in sweet scented, dark, hair.
"Xiaolong, you're so kawaii when you're half asleep," chuckled Umi, relaxing against his (A/N: *coughschiseledcoughs*) torso.
"Yes...mmhhmm...whatever you...say," mumbled the young man, snaking his arms around the girls waist before pulling her even closer. Impossibly close...
~Entering Xiaolong's excuse-for-a-brain (A/N: Just kidding. We all lurves him, ne ^^? )~
=Hair smells so good...=
=Body slender and warm...=
=So soft...=
=Sweet voice...=
=Sounds like Umi...=
=Yes, sounds like...Wait. Who's Umi?=
=That 8 year old girl who wouldn't leave you alone last night...=
=Oh yeah...her...wonder where she went...=
*Something clicks into place*
=She's laying down right next to you, you moron!=
=Whaaaaaat?! No way! This sexy lady has curves! No 8 year old has curves!=
=That's because she's not 8 anymore you fucking imbocile! I swear you're so damned slow...=
=Wait...So you're saying this is Umi? This person I'm snuggling up to, smiling in her hair, is the cute little brat?=
=Yup. The 'sexy lady with curves' is Umi. You're finally waking up, I see.=
"Fuck," muttered the handsome hunk, pulling his hands away from the girl, his amber eyes blinking open.
At the sudden absence of strong arms around her waist, and a strong body behind her, Umi's light-blue eyes flew open also.
"What's wrong?" Came the sweet voice, as the girl sat up and turned around to face the gorgeous Xiaolong, leaning over him and peering into his face.
Barely managing to supress a gasp (of surprise), the young man shot up into a sitting position as well, his head snapping in the young ladies direction.
It was undoubtly and unmistakably Umi. Yet her blue-black hair had gotten somewhat longer and now hung a bit passed her waist. Those familiar light-blue eyes seemed to have gotten a bit darker, coated with thicker, longer lashes that naturally curved upwards. She was wearing a plain, black, spaghetti strapped nightgown that seemed to hug her form comfortably.
"What's wrong?" She repeated, moving closer, oblivious to the fact that he was staring at her with his mouth slightly and stupidly hanging open.
There was a slight pause where they both remained imobile, staring into each others eyes.
"You were...screaming in your sleep last night," whispered Umi as she slowly reached out and touched the side of his face, caressing it softly with the back of her hand.
~God she's so beautiful,~ thought Xiaolong, listening to the sound of her voice yet not hearing the words being spoken.
"What's been bothering you?" She asked, her hand now running through his hair.
~She's smells good, looks good, sounds good and feels good...I wonder how she tastes,~ he thought as he caught her wrist and pulled her towards him, covering her mouth with his.
(A/N: He was in somewhat of a trance. Under normal circumstances he wouldn't do that. But my character Umi is too perdy to resist *grins maniacly* )
Umi's eyes widened in shock and confusion before they slowly slid shut, allowing her to focus on the tingling and breath-taking sensation that suddenly seemed to wash over her. She smiled into the kiss, her left hand resting against the side of his face while the right remained in his grasp. His free hand, however, managed to bury itself deep in her dark, silky hair.
The door burst open...
"Xiaolong! Come quick I need your---What the hell are you doing?!"
The two on the bed sprang away from eachother as if the other had caught fire. Umi looked down, blushing, making sure her hair was hiding most of her face. Xiaolong on the other hand, had whipped his head up to glare at whoever intruded upon his magical moment.

Yue Moon: I swear to god I tried making the chapter longer! I tried! It just didn't work out ^^; That's why it took a bit longer to update. But who can't resist a perfectly lovely cliffy?! The person could be: Sakura, Wei, Ayame, Syaoran, Eriol or Tomoyo. Ugh...I need to make it more interesting! I WILL! *cackles insanely, running around* @.@ SANKYO FOR ALL THE REVIEWS! Keep 'em coming =D !KUPO!
