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: To answer Silly In Pink's question from last chapter, Ying Fa means cherry blossom in Cantonese, which is a dialect of Chinese. Syaoran, being from Hong Kong, would speak Cantonese so many people use it in their fanfics. I wouldn't recommend using it in a fic because, to anyone who is fluent in Chinese, it would sound just really stupid. When people try to use Chinese in their fics, and they're not Chinese or fluent in Chinese, it usually comes out sounding really stupid, cause they always use it incorrectly. Same for Japanese. Or any other language for that matter. Sorry if I sound..arrogant. I'm actually pretty stupid.
Why don't you guys like Syaoran being younger? When you're older, age doesn't matter that much, anyway. My friend's parents are 9 years apart. None of their old school friends are gonna be there, except Tomoyo, so it won't really matter.
Chapter 6: Lost in Tokyo, Part 1
A few small beams of light came shining through the blinds in Sakura's room onto Syaoran's face. He opened one eye and shut it and did the same with the other one. He did this a few times and then yawned.
Where am I? This looks like Sakura's room. How'd I get here? Ohh..yea, He thought as he remembered last night with a goofy grin on his face. It wasn't as if they'd done anything bad (after all, how could they?), but he still quite enjoyed simply being in her arms. It was very..comforting. It made him feel better about being stuck in a dog's body.
Syaoran looked at the clock and saw that it was still fairly early, 6:15 A.M. He yawned again and decided he would go back to sleep.
Sakura woke up a few hours later. It was now nearly 8:00 A.M. I'd better get going, she decided and got up to get dressed. As she was getting up, she noticed something beside her in her bed. Sakura removed the cover and saw that it was the puppy. She smiled and gave him a quick kiss on the head. She went into the kitchen to put out some food and water for him and then she was off.
Syaoran woke up again at 10:30 A.M. and found that Sakura was gone. He was a little disappointed and kind of wished he hadn't slept longer. He headed to the kitchen to get some breakfast.
While he was chomping on the food, Syaoran was deciding what to do the whole day. Nothing much to do around here, he thought gloomily. Then he remembered the fly. Hmm..maybe I could go out exploring for a bit. That fly found me, so surely there must be others like us pretty close to here? I won't be long. Sakura won't even know I was gone.
He looked around for a method of escape. He couldn't go out the front door; it was locked and there was no dog flap. He was definitely not going through the vent. It would really suck to be clogged up in there all day. Then he noticed the windows. The one in Sakura's room was slightly open. Perfect! He could jump up there and squeeze through.
At first, he had a little trouble with the jumping. Stupid stubby doglegs! But eventually he got up to the window and jumped down to the ground. Unfortunately for him, he landed in a big bush. And bushes are hard to navigate these days when you're a little beagle puppy.
Ouch. Gees, this thing has some thorns! Why the heck would they need a thorny bush around a college dorm?! He struggled around in it, but that didn't seem to help. In fact, it made it worse. The thorns scratched him even more when he did that. Okay, calm down. I gotta try and find a path out of this thing. He pushed some branches in it around. After awhile, he finally got out.
When he came out of the bush he had leaves and branches sticking out of his fur. He quickly shook those out. At least he had not been badly hurt. A few scratches here and there, but he was okay.
Finally, he was on his way. Syaoran didn't know anything about Tokyo but he figured it wouldn't be too hard to find his way. He was going to go too far anyway. Just a little exploring.
"Wow, it's really warm and sunny today isn't it, Sakura- chan?" Tomoyo asked, while shielding her eyes with her hands.
"Yea, it sure it. It was even warm in the morning. I had to open the window to get a little breeze." Sakura said. Right after, her eyes opened really wide and she gave a small gasp.
Tomoyo heard this and asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing. I just remembered that I left Rei in my room this morning, with the open window. You don't think he might try and run away, do you?"
"Nah..why would he run away? He would be away from you," Tomoyo smiled. "Who wouldn't want to be with you, Sakura- chan?"
"Mm..okay." She still had a bit of a worried look on her face.
A/N: Sorry it's a little short but I had to split up this part into 2 chapters so there wouldn't be one HUGE chapter. The next part'll be up in a week or so.
