Just Acting?

Sakura sat looking out the window not saying a word. She really didn't know what to say. They hated each other didn't they? But if they really did… then why was he doing this for her? Why did he always have to look out for her? She sighed inwardly as she glance towards the man beside her, his gaze set to the road. She cleared her throat and turned to him fully. He glance at her before looking back at the room.
"What?" He asked.
"I… I just wanted to say thank-you," Sakura whispered before going back to looking out the window. Syaoran raised an eyebrow at her before looking at the road again.
"Why? Because I didn't let someone I hate hit you? Don't feel special, I would have done it for anyone," Syaoran said in a mocking tone. Sakura just glared at him.
"Look Li, giving of thanks was in order, and that's why I did I said thank-you," Sakura grumbled and got out of the car running into her room, it was then she felt the fatigue take over. She fell asleep before she even hit the pillow.
~*Syaoran*~
He sat on the couch playing with his keys, waiting for Eriol and Tomoyo to get home. He knew they each had their own set, but then again, he also knew he had some explaining to do. He sighed as he thought how Tomoyo and Eriol's reaction was. Thinking he really did it because he cared for her. He snorted out loud at this thought when he heard the evil one they call Sakura coming down the stairs.
"We know you're a pig and all Li, but you don't have to make a public display," was all she said before she got a glass of what he presumed to be water then and went back upstairs. He growled in frustration. Why was it she was always able to him fired up so quickly? Even when they were kids, she would be able to get him so pissed off for the smallest of reasons. But just as easily as she got him pissed off, she was able to calm him down, sending Li Syaoran, the emotionless one into a turmoil of emotions. He wasn't supposed to feel worried, or upset because of her. He wasn't supposed to be showing off his emotions. Or at least… that was what he was taught before he met her. Miss Kinomoto Sakura.
~*Flashback*~
Li Syaoran stood outside the classroom waiting to be called in by the sensei. His mother insisted on a change of scenery, thinking it would be a great experience for himself and his sisters if they moved to a small town in Japan. He was in the seventh grade and was just learning the interest of girls. He made sure he uniform was smoothed out properly before he walked into the class and said in the monotonous voice he planned to say everything in until he caught sight of her. The one who had to just go and change it all. Kamiya Kagome.
~*End of Flashback*~
"Syaoran?" A voice called out to him again as he shook his head of the memories of the girl and turned to his attention to the worried emerald eyes before him.
"GAH!" He cried in shock and surprise as he moved back hastily, knocking the sofa over with him.
"Hoe? Li-kun? Are you alright?" A confused Sakura asked. He blushed in embarrassment.
"What do you think you're doing Kinomoto?! You startled me!!" He cried shaking a fist at her as soon as he regained his composure. Sakura looked at him for a moment before shrugging, taking a sip of her water and walking towards the staircase.
"You looked kind of spacey, so I wanted to see if you were alright. Your welcome," she called as she continued to her room. Syaoran sighed again as he mumbled something incoherently and up righted the couch, Tomoyo and Eriol immediately walking in right afterwards.
"Syaoran!! Tell me!! What happened?!" Exclaimed a starry-eyed Tomoyo as she whipped out her video camera.
"Absolutely nothing happened Tomoyo-chan," Syaoran began.
"OHOHOHOHOHO! And he lies!! What do you think happened Eriol-kun?" She asked as she turned the video camera to him.
"I think that buddy Syaoran here and Sakura-chan had a friendly moment," Eriol said with the trademark smirk of his. Syaoran let out a groan. Eriol just had to think the same way as Tomoyo. Now she'd be bugging him about nothing at all for days, maybe even weeks!
"Nothing happened you people! No man should ever slap a woman, and so I stopped it from happening. And to top it off, I hate him. Then I drove her home as a gesture of respect to her rights and we went our separate ways," Syaoran said as he shut his eyes and then snapped them open. "That's not what I—"
"Well, well, well, looks like Syaoran now had a respect for Sakura and her rights," Eriol said as he let out yet another smirk.
"OHOHOHOHOHO!" Tomoyo let out again. Syaoran sighed and slumped to the ground as they pumped him for "details".
