Chapter 15: Fooled Yet Again
==========================
Umi grinned. She and Midnight had Xiaolong pinned beneath them whilst he tried to struggle free.
"Alright alright! You guys win. Now lemme up," he demanded, still struggling.
"What's in it for us?!"
"You get a kiss."
"Ahahahahahaha. And who said I'd want a kiss?" Asked the blue-haired girl, tightening her grip on his arm.
"Who said I was talking to you?" Smirked Xiaolong, jerking his head towards the panther. "I was talking to her."
+What the fuck?! I don't want your nasty ass human lips anywhere near my fur!!!+
"Yes well, Midnight doesn't want your nasty ass lips anywhere near her fur," grinned Umi, attempting to blow a strand of hair out of her face.
"You can't keep this up forever, Umi."
+He's right. Besides I'm getting bored! I'm gone.+
And with that the huge panther bounded off, deeper into the garden.
~Shit,~ thought Umi, knowing what was coming next. And she was right. In one swift movement, Xiaolong was able to twist her off of him and pin her down the way she did him.
"What're you going to do now?" Whispered the young man, his face inches away from her own.
"Your breath stinks," she pointed out, a smirk tugging at the corner of her lips. And in a blink of an eye, she was gone.
"You cheater!!! You can't use magic," he called out to nothing, as he sat up properly and looked around. "Hey Mid," he muttered, watching as the big panther came back trotting up to him. She nuzzled her head against his neck before lazily walking a couple of feet away from him and plopping down under a beautiful tree, watching the young man expectantly. Sighing, Xiaolong got up and made his way over to the creature, laying down next to it like always.
~You're so easy to fool, Xiaolong...~
It wasn't long before they both drifted to sleep.

Sakura giggled, prying Syaoran's hands away from her waist so she could slip a shirt on. They had just gotten out of the shower and her love wasn't yet out of his playful mood...
"I love you," he purred into her right ear, coiling his arms around her waist once again as he buried his face in her hair, inhaling the sweet scent that always seemed to linger about her.
(A/N: I failed to mention that he's standing behind her. Let's read that over again and imagine what's meant to be imagined...)

"I love you too," she whispered, smiling contentedly as she settled against his chest, lazily tracing circles on the back of his hand.

An Hour Or So Later

Xiaolong's right arm tightened around the something he held close. At first he was sure that it was Midnight laying slightly on top of him, pressed against his body. But when a soft human-moan escaped the lips of whatever he held, he realised it wasn't his dear pet.
~Must be Umi,~ he thought, stiffling a yawn, his eyes fluttering open.
"Ah master Xiaolong!" Came Wei's voice from somewhere behind the two. "I thought I might find you here. Master Syaoran wants to speak with you about a certain lady who paid her visits a while ago. She happened to mention your name." The elderly man explained all this as he eyed the two on the floor with an amused expression.
"Very well. Tell him I'll be there in a moment," replied the amber-eyed hunk, absentmindedly stroking the young girl's hair.
"As you wish. By the way young master, if I may say so myself. I do believe you've taken quite a shine to the young lady," he smiled.
"Grr is it that obvious?" Xiaolong muttered once Wei had disappeared.
"Hmm?" Came Umi's groggy voice as she shifted slightly, raising her head to look over at the man's face. "What're you mumbling about?" She yawned, allowing her head to drop back to his chest as she snuggled closer to his warm body.
"Nothing," he grinned, amused at the sleepy-state she was in. "Nothing at all."
Waiting until her breathing had grown rather heavy, Xiaolong awkwardly stood up with her in his arms, making his way back to the house.
