Lost Stray Lover
Full Summary: Sakura comes home one day, and to her surprise finds a loveable stray dog. This stray is actually Syaoran under a curse, but Sakura doesn't know this. She takes him in and takes care of him. Syaoran eventually falls in love with her but she doesn't even know who he is. Will he be able to break the curse to tell her how he feels?
A/N: A big thank you to all reviewers and readers. And as for the muffin, nobody gets it, sorry. But Yay and NOYB get a consolation cookie for good guesses! These are the answers: Rei is from MARS and Neon Genesis Evangelion. Kohaku is from Wish. Hehe, I said anime AND manga. Also Satoshi is from Marmalade Boy and Suzahara is from Angelic Layer and Neon Genesis Evangelion. But I didn't really expect anyone to get those. Anyway, happy reading!
Chapter 5: Unexpected Help From An Unknown Source
Syaoran was staring out the window, clearly bored. Sakura was once again at college so he was home alone. After a few days the thrill of being in a dorm alone had all dried up. There was nothing good on TV and he was too lazy to climb all the way up to Sakura's boom box on the shelf.
He started swatting a fly that was buzzing around his ear. To his annoyance, it started buzzing louder and was getting closer. He swatted harder but still couldn't squash it. But as the fly got closer to his ear the buzzes began sounding strangely like words.
"Zzzz..You. Dog. Zzz. Were you not once a human?"
His eyes flew open in surprise. Was he hearing right? Did the fly just ask him if he used to be a human? How could he possibly understand a fly? Maybe I'm just going crazy, Syaoran hoped. Being a dog obviously had side effects.
"Zzz..Dog. Zzz. You were once a human, correct?"
There it was again. That buzzing that sounded like words. He heard it twice. It asked him again if he used to be human. Even if I am going crazy, it couldn't hurt to play along, right? He thought. I just hope this doesn't get me into another mess.
Syaoran turned his head to face the fly and nodded his head.
"Zzzzz..T'was that lady magician, wasn't it? Zzz..The old one who lives alone in her..Zzz..manor. Zzz."
He nodded again. Whoa, how did the fly know that?
"Zzz..You wish to your human form, do you not? Zzz. I can help."
Well, DUH! How could I possibly NOT want to turn human again? But how's this puny little fly going to help me? Syaoran pondered. He decided to take his chances. Syaoran would do almost anything to turn human again. Even taking advice from a fly he had originally intended to squish. He nodded at the fly.
"Zzz..There are many of us. Zzz. Many people who have been..Zzz..cursed by her. Zzz."
So this fly used to be human, too? Figures. How else would it know how to talk? He thought. That magician sure is a big pain in the butt.
"Zzz..I will find some more..Zz..who have been cursed. Zz. We will..Zz..come meet you. Zz..I must go now. Zz. Don't try to smash me next..Zzz..time." And the fly was off.
Syaoran wanted to ask it lots of questions. Who else had been cursed? Where are they? How could he be changed back? But that was impossible in his dog form. He just watched it fly off and wonder when it would come back. It said it would bring others. Other who had been cursed by the magician. Are they all animals? He was suddenly grateful he wasn't turned into a blade of grass. Or a doorknob.
Sakura came home in the afternoon and gave Syaoran his food and water, as usual. But instead of playing with him and his squeaky ball, she went directly to her room and closed the door.
Syaoran assumed she was studying and doing homework, and that stuff was very important. But he was getting pretty lonely and bored. He hoped maybe the fly would come back with some news about the lady magician or other people who been cursed but it didn't.
A few hours passed but Sakura still remained in her room. It was late and the sky was dark. Syaoran thought about going into her room, but decided it would be better not to disturb her. He would just wait for her to come out when she was done. Well. Maybe.
This is driving me crazy! There's nothing to do and Sakura's stuck in her room. Maybe I could just take a little peek, Syaoran thought, I won't make any noise or bother her. Just a little peek.
So he crept to her door and opened it slowly. She was working on her essay again and she looked really tired. He felt a little sorry for her. She must be working really hard, Syaoran cursed himself for being selfish, and here I am just doing nothing and being a burden on her.
Unfortunately, at that very moment he tripped over one of his feet and fell through the crack in the doorway, alarming Sakura.
"Oh Rei, it's you. That's the 2nd time you've scared me like that." She said, relieved.
Dammit, I scared her? He looked very sorry and was angry with himself for intruding.
She smiled. "Aww. It's okay. C'mere." She picked him up cuddled him.
This time he really smiled and barked in joy. She stroked his fur and petted him on the head. He was glad that he came in after all.
"Mmm..I'm really tired." Sakura yawned and turned off her computer. She went to bed right after and fell asleep. But what she didn't know was that she was still holding Syaoran. So he fell asleep with her, on her bed, in her arms. And it was the best night of his life.
A/N: Haha, damn I'm so cliché. That last sentence? It came from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I came up with the idea that they'd fall asleep together on my own but then I remembered Buffy and Spike and that sentence just came to mind hehe. That wasn't too bad right? Well if it is, keep in mind I made this all up in about 3 hours. I'm a lazy bum. I'll admit it.
