Love Can Be Magical

By: Chibi Maylan.

----------Morning-----------

Syaoran awoke, he blinked and felt something.. it wasn't his pillow... he then realized.

"Sakura!" his face turned hotly red, as he looked at the auburn-haired maiden sweetly sleeping next to him.

Syaoran got out of his bed, and walked out of his room, half closing the door behind him.

"Goodmorning Syao!" Eriol greeted as he closed his door, which made Syaoran jump.

"G-Goodmorning.." He quickly shut the door, hoping Eriol didn't see Sakura.

"Is it just me, or was someone else in your divine bed?" Eriol walked around Syaoran, who was blushing madly.

"Uhm... no.. I--" Eriol started to open the door, he exclaimed as he turned around and looked at Syaoran.

"Syao... you didn't? " Eriol looked at his friend slyly.

"NO!!!" Syaoran's face turned scarlet, Eriol grinned.

"what happened? Did she magically sleep in your bed huh?" Eriol replied.

"I don't know.. I just woke up, and there she was!" Syaoran walked down the stairs to the kitchen, Eriol close behind. Eriol leaned next to the fridge, grabbing some ingredients. Eriol started to prepare to cook pancakes.

"Maybe she's beginning to like you, she might even sleep next to you again tonight.. haha.." Eriol laughed. Syaoran stopped pouring the hot water into two cups.

'Sakura? Liking me..' Syaoran thought to himself. Eriol mixed the pancake mix and got out a pan.

"You never know, Tomoyo & Sakura are really pretty girls.. Don't you agree Syao?" Syaoran gulped.

"Yeah, but.. We only met days ago!" Syaoran replied.

Eriol laughed, "yeah.. well, we'll see.. you never know what will happen.. you two might even get together.. ever heard of 'Love at first sight'?"

"What about you and Tomoyo, eh?" Syaoran grinned back, which Eriol paused and looked at the pancake..

"Eriol... helloooo.." Syaoran laughed, as he placed two cups of tea on the table, and Eriol snapped back to reality.

"Anyway, Can you go wake them up? Breakie's ready.." Eriol placed the pancakes on the table, as Syaoran went to wake the girls, he was a few steps away from his door, when Sakura bumped into him sleepily.

"Oops, sorry Syaoran-kun.." Sakura blushed, as she tried to make a way to her room, but Syaoran held he back by grasping her hand.

"Sakura.. how come you came into my room?" Syaoran asked. Sakura nervously turned toward him.

"uhmm.. Gomen Nasai, Sorry.. I couldn't sleep at the time, and I was going to talk to you, but you looked so cozy and sweet sleeping.. so I didn't wake you up.. and I.. fell asleep.." Sakura turned away to hide her blushing face. Syaoran started to blush as well.

"Breakfast is ready..Tell Tomoyo.." he turned to walk down the steps.

"Syaoran..." he stopped, back turned away from Sakura. "Sorry if I upset you.." Syaoran looked over his shoulder.

"It's okay.." he then walked down back to Eriol.

Sakura then woke Tomoyo, and told her what happened.. Tomoyo giggled and smiled.

"Sakura-san! you're falling for him aren't you?" Tomoyo fixed up her hair.

"Me? I. Well. Maybe.." Sakura replied as she fiddled with her thumbs.

"Uh Huh.." Tomoyo grinned, as they went to eat.

-----------------------~---------------------~---------------------------~-- ------------------~

It was midday, and the boys had just left the house leaving the girls behind. Sakura & Tomoyo decided to pass the hours outside in the backyard.

"So, shall we clean up the garden, Tomoyo-chan?" Sakura asked as they opened the door. Tomoyo nodded.

They looked around to check if anyone was looking before they began to weave their magic. Soon enough, a fountain was bubbling away and two trees were on both sides of it; a Sakura tree and a plum blossom tree. Along the fences was some blooming flowers of roses, daisies and pheonies.

"Great!" Sakura exclaimed as they walked back inside only to hear a knock coming from the door. 'Who could that be?' Sakura thought as she ran towards the door. ---------------------~-------------------~-------------------~-------------- ---~-----------------~

---- Mika's Apartment ----

Mika had stayed at home, receiving her work via e-mail from her boss, Mr. Negashima. Mika aged 23 was a tall, slim figured and attractive young woman with navy hair and dark blue eyes. It was around midday as she just finished her shower and started to dress herself for the day. She was to meet Mr. Negashima's son, Nakahito who had known Mika before his father had hired her, infact he was an acquaintance of hers.

// Flashback: Mika's Appointment \\

Mika stood in front of the lift. She paused and hesitated infront of the lift as the doors open and people came by her swiftly.

She took off her sunglasses and pressed the level she was told to go on, level 45 the level which if she was hired she would work at.

Mika stepped out of the lift to find a few people bustling past her with phones in hands, papers and pens and people clicking and typing on the computers nearby. Mika found the 'Waiting Room' for the people applying for jobs, she found 2 other women chatting and giggling loudly as they talked about the people working. As soon as Mika took her form and sat down the girls started to whisper childishly to each other both looking at Mika.

Mika then rolled her eyes at them, as the left sided girl whispered again into the right-sided girl's ear. Finally, a man called in one of the girls. The room fell silent. A few moments later the girl came out, with a frown.

"He said he'd call if I'd get a job" she said goodbye and left the room.

The other girl went inside. Mika sat closer to the door, she could hear the interview clearly. "You seem very nice, with little experience of computering though.. I'll also need you for most of the week.." a man's voice told the girl, who replied: "Oh.. well.. uhm.. Monday, Thursday and Sunday I can't be-" The man sighed, as Mika heard a rustle of paper being scrunched up.

"Well, I'll call if you are hired Miss. farewell.. please let the other girl inside now.."

Mika then straightened her suit and prepared herself. She shut the door behind her and saw that there were two men, one older man in his mid 40- 50's and a younger one, which looked like his son. Mika then realized who the younger man was, it was Nakahito Negashima! Nakahito was an acquaintance of hers and they've met several times with friends.

Mika smiled as she took her seat and gave her resume towards the man, which the man grinned. "Great Ms. Hajime, I see you have skills on computers, faxing etc. and it says you've been an assistant before, lovely. How many days would you like to spend here?"

Mika smiled and replied: "As much days possible, sir" the man then cheered. "You're hired. Such a cutie too, don't you think so? Nakahito?" Nakahito looked up at Mika and hesitated. "Father, please don't embarrass Miss. Hajime and myself."

// End of Flashback \\

Mika then realized her phone was ringing, probably Nakahito. She answered just in time. "Yes?" she then opened her door and headed out of her unit. "Good morning, Mika. Are you coming?" Nakahito greeted. "Of course I am, I'll be at the café in 15 minutes and we'll discuss there." Nakahito then hung up. Mika walked to her car, sitting in the drivers seat.

---------- :: The House :: ---------

On the doorstep was Mei Ling Li. She was quickly prompting herself by fixing her dress and cleared her throat as she heard footsteps draw near.

"Who is it?" Mei Ling blinked. 'A female voice! This is the right house? Maybe Eriol has a girlfriend? Couldn't be Syaoran..' the door opened a bit.

Two emerald eyes peered at Mei Ling, Mei Ling then remembered those eyes with a frown. "You. where's Eriol or Syaoran? And what are you doing here?" Mei Ling pondered. Sakura opened the door. "Eriol-kun and Syaoran-kun are not here, miss." Sakura trailed off.

"Miss.. Mei.." Sakura forgot her name. Mei Ling sighed in annoyance. "Mei Ling.. now, please let me in?" as Mei Ling walked past Sakura.

Sakura felt a bit annoyed that Mei Ling was here; since they last met a few nights ago she was all over her master. For some reason, Sakura felt something was bothering her at how close Mei Ling & Syaoran were, cousin or not.

Tomoyo had just finished reading instructions on how to bake a cake. She checked on her cake, it was nearly ready.

Mei Ling gasped at the furniture 'Such great décor they have! Eriol or Syaoran must've got money off his mother or something. This would cost a fortune!' Mei Ling thought. She then noticed the other girl, with her raven hair and lilac eyes in the kitchen.

"Oh! You're Syaoran's cousin, we weren't expecting you here." Tomoyo exclaimed as she busily tidied the kitchen, Mei Ling muttered: "I wasn't expecting you two either.." Sakura cleared her throat.

"Tea? Cake? Come. sit" Sakura motioned for her to sit. Soon after, they were sitting in the lounge room drinking and eating silently. 'Till Mei ling broke the silence.

"So, do you two live with the boys?" Mei Ling asked. Tomoyo nodded. "Yeah, they were kind enough to let us stay for a while."

"Hmm. well. do you know when the boy's are coming?" Mei Ling looked at her watch. "Any moment now.." Sakura replied, she felt relieved that Syaoran and Eriol would be home.

----------------~------------------~--------------------~------------------- ~-------------------~---

Meanwhile, Mika was on her way to meet Nakahito to begin their plans.

Nakahito pulled out the printed profile of Eriol & Syaoran his father had sent to him that afternoon and pointed at Eriol's picture.

"Is this the guy you saw?" Nakahito asked. Mika nodded. "Yeah, damn him. Your father got very annoyed that they've taken it." She sipped her ice tea.

Nakahito showed a picture of Syaoran Li and Mika nodded again. They both then took out another sheet of paper and they're orders were written by Mr. Negashima. They were to track them down and find the Rose.

"I guess we should find out where they live or work. Then get ourselves into their home and search." Mika suggested. Nakahito agreed. "Yeah.. Let's start, I wanna punch that idiot for tricking my father." Nakahito punched his hand into his other hand's palm.

Mika agreed, they both wouldn't have to search for the two men if the Rose D'or was in the hands of their boss. The plan was to sell it in a weeks time from now to other tradesmen for millions. Of course, Mika had told her boss that if she were to help he would have to give her some share of the money and Nakahito was helping because not only was he the son of this business but also going to become the owner after this heist.

Mika stood up with Nakahito as they walked out of the café. Nakahito opened the door as they walked, hitting into someone passing by. "Oh, Sorry" the person walked off talking with it's friend. Mika looked up to see a brown haired guy walk away. She gasped as she recognized the two boys walk into a car park.

"Its them!!! Nakahito!! Hurry!!" she ran off. Nakahito followed her as they watched Syaoran open his car door. Mika luckily had parked at the same car park and quickly went to her car. They were now a few cars behind from Syaoran's car. "What a co-incidence!" Nakahito exclaimed. Mika drove on. "Yes.. And he'll lead us right to his home!" Mika exclaimed as they slowly drove into a street.
