Chapter 4: Jealousy Strikes and a Homecoming
Sakura's Dorm
The next morning Sakura woke up early at 6:30 to do some homework she'd been putting off for a while. Going to the mall yesterday didn't help any either. The new puppy had been taking her mind off things, which was good, but also bad. She wasn't so stressed about school when she found the puppy but now she had a mountain of work to do.
Sakura yawned and started getting to work. She began digging to through her backpack to find her laptop. Sakura had a 2000 word essay due by the day after tomorrow about common pet illnesses and their treatments. It's a good thing I'm becoming a veterinarian, if Rei ever gets sick, I can take care of him. She thought.
Syaoran heard the clickety-clack of the laptop and noticed it was coming from Sakura's room. He decided to go in and investigate. Maybe she's up early.
The door of Sakura's room slowly creaked open as Syaoran nudged it forward. Being a dog was frustrating sometimes. Since he was so small he had to struggle very hard to simply open a door. Sakura saw the door open but to her surprise there was no one there.
"HOEEE!!! It's a ghost!!" She screamed and hid beneath her sheets.
The dog's eyes widened in confusion. He heard Sakura scream for some reason. Is she afraid of ME? What is she talking about? There's no ghost here! He thought. Syaoran barked to signal that it was only him, no ghosts.
When Sakura heard his bark she poked her head out from under the sheets. "Rei? You scared me!" She was so relieved to see the cute beagle at her door wagging his tail. "I thought it was a ghost when the door opened and there was no one there!"
Sakura look at the clock. It was 7:30. She had been working long enough. Her essay was almost done so she decided to take a break and went into the kitchen to make some breakfast. Syaoran went with her.
Inside the kitchen was his squeaky ball. Syaoran started squeaking and chasing it.
Sakura chuckled. "You really love that thing, don't you? Good thing I got it. You know, I almost lost that at the mall. But then I went back to the pet store and this really nice guy who worked there helped me out." She said dreamily. "He was cute too. And very polite and charming."
At this moment Syaoran started growling for some reason.
"Rei? What's wrong?" said a puzzled Sakura.
He didn't know why himself. But the thought of some guy being overly nice to Sakura seemed to make him a little mad. Am I..jealous? Nahh, that can't be it. Sakura's really nice and pretty but..nahh.
She petted Syaoran on the head and scratched him. He seemed content after awhile. Sakura was feeling a little sleepy so she went back to bed.
Later in the Afternoon
Sakura was out with Tomoyo and her other friends so Syaoran was home alone once again. He was resting on the cushion when he heard the keys clicking again and thought it was Sakura. He ran up to the door to greet her.
To his surprise, instead of Sakura, a girl with shoulder- length jet-black hair came into the dorm. Thinking she was an intruder, he started barking loudly in her direction.
The girl was also very surprised. What was a dog doing in her dorm? How did it get in? Never mind that, she thought. I just need to get him out. She bent down and picked up the little puppy and set him outside.
"Sorry boy, you can't be in here. We're not supposed to have pets in this dorm." She said to him.
Who does that girl think she is? What is she doing in Sakura's dorm room? Crap! What am I supposed to do now? She threw me out! I guess I'll just wait until Sakura comes home. Syaoran thought gloomily. He went back down under the stairs where Sakura had first found him and fell asleep.
Later in the Evening
"Bye Tomoyo-chan! I'll see you tomorrow after school!" said Sakura as she climbed out of Tomoyo's car.
"Bye Sakura-chan!" Tomoyo replied and drove off.
Sakura was about to unlock the door to her dorm when she heard snoring. Snoring that sounded somewhat familiar. It was coming from under the stairs. She checked under there, saw Rei, and gasped.
"What are you doing here, Rei? How did you get outside? Oh it's freezing! Let's get inside," she said and scooped him up into her arms.
Ahh finally, Syaoran thought in satisfaction. He loved being in Sakura's arms. Maybe I should get thrown out everyday. That girl isn't so bad after all.
Sakura opened the door and quickly let Syaoran down. He was a little disappointed. The girl who had thrown him noticed and got a little irritated.
"Sakura! I just let that dog out today! He shouldn't be in here," she said.
"You let him out, Kohaku?" Sakura asked incredulously. "You love dogs! And cats! And any sort of furry animal!"
Kohaku sighed. "Yes, I do, but Sakura, you know we're not allowed to have pets in the dorm."
"Oh but he's not very big and nobody will notice him if we don't tell." Sakura whined.
"Argh fine. Just make sure he doesn't make any..messes around my stuff. And you do have to take care of him."
"Sure!" Sakura said cheerily.
Syaoran didn't quite understand. The girl who had thrown him out was supposed to be here? And Sakura wasn't allowed to have pets here? But she had made an exception for him. He smiled. Well, something close to a smile anyway in his dog form.
"Kohaku is my roommate, Rei. She was gone for the weekend so she didn't know about you. I'm sorry." Sakura explained.
"Rei? That's this dog's name?" Kohaku asked.
Sakura smiled. "Yep! You like it?"
"Uhh..sure."
A/N: Has anyone figured out where I'm getting these Japanese names? Hehe, it's a little funny actually. If anyone can figure out where they are from then they get a muffin! Hint: various popular animes/mangas
Sorry that I didn't make the jealousy scene a little longer, but what is Syaoran supposed to do? Argue back? He's a dog!
