CHAPTER THREE
A Possible Relationship
Syaoran was pacing around in his room, trying to cool down for even just a bit. He had gone insane just a couple of minutes ago. Without warning, an idea popped in his head. He was going to bring Sakura down. He needed an idea that could ruin Sakura in front of Eriol and make him think otherwise. He was going to wreck it all for Kinimoto Sakura and possibly destroy her campus image forever. All he needed to do then was think of how he was going to do so.
~*~
"Touya! Give that back to me! I need that for your information!" I told my brother who had taken my necklace. It was Saturday and I was just getting ready for tonight. I had a whole pile of worthless clothes stacked in my room. "Touya!" I screamed at the top of my lungs.
"No need to shout! Sheesh," he complained. He hated it when I screamed like that. Must be really loud. Touya placed the necklace he took on top of my drawer. "Here."
"Thank you," I said. I loved it when he got annoyed. "Dammit! I can't find anything good to wear!" I stood right up and started going over my closet to find a good outfit. "I've worn everything in this place!"
"Why do you have to be so picky? Just grab something from your collection of garbage and wear it! That simple! You're making your life so miserable!" Touya retorted. "I don't know why you have to get so dressed up just to go to the movies. Who are you going out with anyway?" he asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Hiiragizawa Eriol," I stated in a simple manner as I managed to walk through the mountain range in my room (a.k.a. the piles of clothes I threw all over).
"Isn't he your mortal enemy's friend?" my brother asked, realizing the name sounded quite familiar to him.
"Actually, he's Syaoran's 'best' friend," I told him, emphasizing the 'best' part. "It sounds kind of weird but I am going out with the blue bird. No questions asked, alright?"
"Yeah sure. So, exactly how long are you going to take to find some decent garments to wear?" he asked me in curiosity. Or maybe simply to tease me. He knew it will take me time to decide on 'decent clothes'. Touya flashed a grin on his face. "Take your time, I'm outta here," he announced before he exited from my room. Not minding that he left, I continued with what I was doing. It was taking me forever to pick out something that would satisfy me.
That evening, I finally settled on wearing a pink halter top and a black mini skirt along with some platform slip-ons. I don't know how in the world I actually found something good to wear. In a short moment's time after getting dressed, Eriol's car got parked in front of our house, the cool McLarren (woah!) that he drove. I kissed my dad goodbye and we went on our way to the movies. Eriol bought us two tickets to a movie called "Try Seventeen (if you have a better idea, i would be more than happy to know about it)". It was a good choice, I should say.
We got settled after finding seats inside the cinemas and the trailers started immediately. Eriol had bought some popcorn and drinks. Normally, I wouldn't eat during a movie but I ate anyway. The reason was that I needed something to take my mind off other things. Anyway, the movie soon began.
While the movie was playing, Eriol and I kept giggling because of other sights we saw inside. At our spot, we could see at least three or more couples making out. The darkness of the area shadowed them though. But imagine that! We could watch something other than the movie for free! Eriol wrapped his arm around me as I made myself comfortable by his shoulder. The movie was so sweet and romantic. But besides that, the movie was actually nice and good thing it wasn't boring! Like woah, I would die in there if it was.
Eriol was such an interesting guy. He was kind and thoughtful too unlike that damn Syaoran. Wait just a second! Where did that come from? I can't concentrate on anything if the mere thought of Syaoran keeps troubling me this way. Ugh! I cursed him in my mind so why even bring him up? Syaoran, go to hell!
"Is there something wrong?" Eriol asked me, noticing my blank expressions and sudden silence.
I shook my head in reply. "No, of course not," I answered as we continued with the movie. By the end of the movie, Eriol and I took a quick round of driving. Then we got to the park.
~*~
"Why are we here?" Sakura questioned.
"You'll see it soon. Come on. Get out of the car," Eriol replied when he himself climbed off and led the way. Sakura tag behind him as he held her hand behind her. They quickened their pace through the park until they came to a very familiar area... the spot of the cherry blossom tree. It was beautiful and fully blossomed with pretty pink foliage that gently swayed against the breeze. It was a sight worth seeing indeed. "I wanted to show you this. I figured you'd like it," Eriol told her.
"It's so beautiful," she uttered and stood beside Eriol. "I like it. I like it a whole lot," Sakura turned to him with a smile. He took her in his arms and she whispered a quick "thank you" to him.
"I know," was Eriol's simple response.
They walked around the park and then settled on a bench near the cherry blossom tree. The cold breeze was pleasant but it soon made Sakura shiver to a point that Eriol, being considerate and all, lent his jacket to her. Sakura felt so peaceful. The feeling inside her was something she hadn't felt for quite some time already. She was calm for once, with the company of a great guy. Sakura turned to Eriol with a glisten in her wonderful emerald eyes.
"Sakura," he suddenly spoke under his breath.
Sakura swallowed hard. "Y-yes?" she stammered. Hold that thought. Kinimoto Sakura is stammering in front of guy?
"I have to say something to you," Eriol told her. "I just realized that I was attracted to you. I'm in love with you," he continued, bringing Sakura to a shock. She couldn't believe what she heard him say. Or at least what she thought she heard him say. Had she been dreaming? "Never mind. I know it's stupid. It just sort of slipped off," he tried to stall, and was obviously to change the subject. Eriol forced a laugh to come in.
"Uh... um..." Sakura somehow stuttered. 'What am I doing? I already knew that Eriol liked me so what's the matter with me now?' she asked herself. Eriol turned away from her. He seemed embarrassed to some extent. "Eriol," she uttered to catch his attention and slowly a smile made its way to her lips. "I think I love you too," she blurted it out.
Eriol looked surprised. He quickly but carefully embraced her and for a second there, they were staring into one another's eyes. And before they knew it, the gap between their lips was there no more. Sakura was absorbed into her emotions at that very moment. Eriol and her kissed passionately. The feelings they were having were more of love than that of lust. Well of course you can't completely erase 'lust'. It's in every normal human being's instinct (hehe ;p).
It was shortly about time for Sakura to get home. They broke off their kiss and a grin creased the sides of their mouths. Sakura sighed in pleasure to the decision she just made. She thought this relationship was rather likely to last, different from the ones she has had before. Eriol led her back to the car and brought her home. They kissed one last time for the night as Sakura entered her house and waved him goodbye. An evening well spent.
~*~
As soon as Eriol got home, he called Syaoran and told him what had happened. Syaoran was upset upon hearing Eriol's story. Deep inside, he was so furious that his best friend wanted to be with the girl he hated from the bottom of his heart, or so he says. Syaoran listened intently to how happy Eriol sounded over the phone. What more would it be like when they meet up in school on Monday? 'How could I actually bear to see Eriol playing around with my mortal enemy?!' he thought.
The call ended quickly since Eriol said he'd have to call Sakura next. Syaoran was left with no choice but to hang up. He sat down on his bed staring at the phone. He couldn't imagine how glad Eriol was since Sakura told him their feelings were mutual. It sounded like absolute crap to Syaoran. He was disgusted. Syaoran fell back on his bed and stared at the ceiling blankly. He didn't know why he was that much against Eriol being contented with that Kinimoto girl.
Syaoran didn't want to get in the way of Eriol's happiness. He was his best friend after all. But it was too much for him to handle. Syaoran didn't like the picture of Eriol being with Sakura. Something inside him wanted Eriol and Sakura to be away from each other, far away. Syaoran grinned at the thought of his plan to destroy Eriol's and Sakura's newly found relationship. He couldn't wait to make it happen. He just knew it would work well and with such satisfaction in mind, he drifted off to sleep.
A couple of hours passed the break of dawn, a knock came from behind Syaoran's bedroom door. He woke up, disturbed by such an annoying noise so early in the morning. There was no school that day so what's the point of getting up before even wanting to get up?! He stood up out of being so irritated by the knocks that went non-stop. He unlocked the door only to find Meilin carrying the cordless phone from downstairs in one hand.
"Here, it's for you," Meilin told him as she handed the phone out at Syaoran.
"What am I supposed to do with this?" Syaoran complained, his body still sluggish from lack of sleep.
"Go ahead and eat it if you want. See if I care," Meilin told him with one-sided sarcasm, like she often did so.
"Haha! Very funny!" Syaoran rolled his eyes and then took the phone. Clinging it to his ear, he opened the line. "Hello?"
"Hey, it's me," came a voice's quick response.
"Who is this?" Syaoran asked, trying his best to recognize whose voice it belonged to.
"Who do you think?" the person on the other line replied. Syaoran still could not figure out who it was. "Syaoran, stop acting so stupid. It's ME. Can't you even tell who I am?" the other person continued. Syaoran listened carefully this time and then instantly knew who he was talking to.
