Chapter 16:
Bloody snow and last minute kisses
"What do you think?" Syaoran asked looking at Ki as if he were going to say something. Ki looked for a few seconds and went back to sleep. "Oh, so you don't like it?" He said. "Fine, you just have to live with it until I get dored of it." Syaoran said.
It took Syaoran about 10 mintes to get dressed, he was going to the office at near the bath house. He was falling behind on his investagations. Syaoran put on the hat so no one would say anything about his new look. Syaoran wasn't really a people person when he changed his looks.Syaoran walked to his office. He felt more in control when he was thinking there. Syaoran opened the doors looking at the sun lit room.'Well, I just hope Sakura wasn't hurt' Syaoran thought taking out his cell phone. Syaoran had it on all night just in case something happened. 'I need to stop worry so much and I have be calm.' Syaoran thought to himself.
Later that morning Eriol and Meling were eating in the kitchen, talking about anything and everything that poped in there heads. "So, Eriol are you and that girl Tomoyo dating?" Meling asked. "Meling, I think you already know that," Eriol said putting his spoon down in his raisin bran crunch.
Meling begain laughing. "What's so funny?" Eriol said plainly. "I can't see you kissing or dating anyone, it jsut werid" She said. Eriol sighed and poured more cereal in his bowl.
Meanwhile Syaoran was surfing the internet. He just go finish going threw his clue files, and now he was writing down his thoughts on his computer dairy. 'I almost there, I can feel them. I beginning to understand why my family was killed. I've beening thinking about Sakura a lot lately.
I still remember the first time I saw her, my heart jumped, I admit it. But the hardest thing is admiting that I might be....in love. I never wanted to, why the hell is everything thing going bad for me. But I must say that she's great kisser' Syaoran wrote. Syaoran sighed and leaned back into his chair. Syaoran touched his lips. 'And yet I feel like my lips were used, but in a good way. It's like I have two sides to me. One side of me is a killer and the other is in love with a girl. One time I wanted to kiss her so bad I thought I was going to chock, I feel like a complete perv for thinking such things.
She means something to me I just don't know what and I don't want to know at anytime of my life. But now I'm beginning to wonder. After I kill the murders of my family, what am I to do next?'
Syaoran sighed and saved what he wrote. Syaoran got up and walked to his shelf. Syaoran took a book off the shelf. It was his new photo album. 'Wait until I full you' He thought and then he put the empty album book back on the shelf. Eriol and Meling knocked on his door softly not know for sure that he was in there.
Syaoran walked across the room and opened the door. "What?" Syaoran said. "What do you mean 'what'?" Meling said putting her hands on her hips.
Syaoran rolled his eyes. "Where going christmas shopping, we might be out late okay," Eriol said. "Yeah, sure." Syaoran said shutting the door. Meling and Eriol sighed.Later that same day Syaoran was watching this soap show. "I told you we can't do this, I love Vince." said a woman on the t.v. Syaoran turned it to the music channel and it was playing some kind of love song. Syaoran muted it and walked to the kitchen.Syaoran suddenly stopped and looked at the wine bottle. Syaoran grabbed it and opened it. Syaoran took a big gulp and swallowed hard. "That good," Syaoran said making a face by the strong taste of the wine.
Syaoran looked at the christmas tree and drank more and more and after a while Syaoran had drank the whole bottle. Syaoran got up and got another on and then he unmuted that t.v and begain dancing while drinking. It was playing some Techno music.
"I hope Syaoran likes what I got him," Meling said walking up the stairs. Eriol looked at the his watch it was 10:19. "I'm pretty sure he'll like it," Eriol said opened the door. Syaoran had the music blasting. "Well, Syaoran's having a good time," Meling said with a small smrik.
Eriol amd Meling took off there shoes and walked in the dining room. Eriol and Meling saw Syaoran drinking a beer. "Syaoran" Eriol said dropping his stuff. Syaoran stopped drinking. "Oh, I didn't know you met this late, " Syaoran laughed. "Syaoran are you drunk?" Eriol said nearing shouting. Syaoran laughed a little.
"Maybe a little," He said taking another sip of the beer. Eriol begain to notice his hair. "What happened to your hair," Eriol said. Meling just stood there watching.
"Damn Eriol, I haven't had fun in a while,and now your bitching about my hair, it ain't yours anyway," Syaoran said gulping down the last little bit of his beer. Syaoran throw the bottle at the wall and ran to the couch.
Syaoran turned up the music even more jumping on the couch. Meling put her things down and walked over to the t.v and turned it off. Syaoran stopped and jumped on Meling. "Ahh," Meling scearmed as she fell to the floor.
Eriol ran over. "Syaoran get off her," Eriol yelled. Syaoran laughed and got off Meling running to the kitchen and got another beer. "You know, I can't believe that I'm related to you guys. Your so stuck up and shit," Syaoran said gluping down the beer. Syaoran walked over to Eriol and smiled.
"I think Tomoyo's a slut. How can you date someone you just met, I mean C'mon," Syaoran said. Syaoran begain seeing double of Eriol and Meling. "Wow, there so many of you,"Syaoran said and then he fell on top of Meling as she was getttin up. Meling yelled. "Get him off me," She grunted trying to move Syaoran off her.
Eriol and Meling carryed Syaoran up to his room. "God, Syaoran you need to lay off those dim sum cholates," Meling grunted. "He's not fat, It's just his muscles,"Eriol protest.
They layed Syaoran on his bed. "Syaoran?" Eriol said. Syaoran turned over. "Hey, I saw this on t.v once, this guy was drunk and when he fell asleep, they asked his questions and he told them everything," Meling said. Eriol smiled.
"Syaoran, what the password to your computer dairy?" Eriol asked. Syaoran turned over. "It's....5266325" He said with a moan as he moved. Meling gasped and smiled at Eriol. Eriol walked over to his laptop that was at the window.
"I feel kinda funny doin' this but I might get some answeres," Eriol said as the window uploaded on the laptop. Eriol click on a private document and typed in the password. "Welcome, Syaoran," The computer said.
Meling sat on the bed. "This is what he wrote today," Eriol said. " 'I almost there, I can feel them. I beginning to understand why my family was killed. I've beening thinking about Sakura a lot lately. I still remember the first time I saw her, my heart jumped, I admit it. But the hardest thing is admiting that I might be....in love. I never wanted to, why the hell is everything thing going bad for me. But I must say that she's s good kisser'.
'And yet I feel like my lips were used, but in a good way. It's like I have two sides to me. One side of me is a killer and the other is in love with a girl. One time I wanted to kiss her so bad I thought I was going to chock I feel like a compete perv for thinging it. She means something to me I just don't know what and I don't want to know, at anytime of my life. But now I'm beginning to wonder. After I kill the murdurers of my family, what am I to do next?' "
Meling and Eriol laughed a little. "Well, that answers one question Syaoran thinks Sakura is a good kisser." Eriol said. Meling walked over and moved Eriol's hands. Meling sighed on the internet. "What are you doing?" Eriol said. Meling smiled. "I sick of this drama," Meling copyed what Syaoran wrote and pasted it on the write mail. "Meling don't, he'll kill us if he finds out," Eriol said. "He won't know if you keep your yap shut," Meling said. Meling wrote Sakura's Email address and pressed send.Eriol sighed. "Fine, but if he finds out, I'm not in it," He said. The mail was sent ina matter of seconds.Sakura was at Tomoyo's house surfing the internet. 'You have a new message'Tomoyo turned. "Hey, how come it's your Email address?" Tomoyo said. Sakura opened the mail. Sakura begain reading it. "OH MY GOD!" Sakura shouted. "Tomoyo look," She cried. Tomoyo begain reading and then smiled. "Sweet," She said. "Syaoran said that your a good kisser," Tomoyo squealed. Sakura blushed thinking abut the first time they kissed. "Meling and Eril sent it," Sakura said. Tomoyo begain jumping up and down. Sakura smiled and read the message over and over.The next day Syaoran woke with the worlds worst head ache. He was so hung over after last night. Syaoran heard a low beeping noise that sounded pretty loud but it wasn't. Syaoran got out of the bed and walked over to his laptop. Syaoran sighed. I was still on the internet. Syaoran opened the mail box.He no new messages or old messages, but one sent mail. Syaoran picked up his laptop and walked back to his bed. Syaoran opened the sent mail. "What?" Syaoran said opening the mail. Syaoran eyes widened at the message he saw. "AAAAAHHHHH!" Syaoran yelled. Eriol and Meling came running in the room.
"Syaoran what's wrong?" Meling said. "THIS!" Syaoran yelled showing them the message. Eriol looked at the message for a sec and ran out the room. Syaoran forgot that he had a hang over and looked at Meling. "Meling, you did this didn't you, how did you get my password?" Syaoran yelled walking to Meling. "Um....you told me." She said.
"How? I was-" Syaoran stopped. "You made me tell you I was drunk! you bitch!" Syaoran ran to the bathroom and threw up.
Meling ran down the stairs. Syaoran came out the bathroom. "You are so dead," Syaoran said running down the stairs. Meling ran threw the busy kitchen with Syaoran following closely by. Meling came to a dead end in the garden. Meling smiled fanitly.
"Syaoran I only did that was because you didn't tell her yourself," Meling said. Syaoran stopped and held his hand out as his sword appeared. Meling begain shacking a little.
"Okay, I know I wasn't but she needed it," She said. Syaoran had a emotionless look on his face. Syaoran turned around and walked a few feet. Meling sighed and at that second Syaoran threw his sword at the tree where Meling was.
Meling screamed but her body went stiff. The sword hit right in the truck. Meling fell to her knees. Syaoran walked away. Eriol was looking from his window.
"Oh God, I'm so dead." Eriol said to himself. Syaoran walked to the bathroom and took a shower. It was about 12:00 when Syaoran finally came down stairs. Eriol was long gone, he was at the movies where (He thought) was safe. Syaoran really didn't care he was kind of numd at the feeling and the thought that Sakura read what his wrote in his digital dairy.
Syaoran walked once again into the training room and sighed. The lights' came on and two window opened. Syaoran walked on the bright blue sat in a medatating stance on the floor. Syaoran closed his eyes and relax and begain thinking.
Why did he drink so much last night? why was his being to remember thing he never thought about? why was he so emotion lately? Syaoran wasn't on to ask himself so many questions at on time. By as time went Syaoran begain to swim in his thoughts, more and more of the starting of his question where 'Why'.
Sakura came home shopping once agin her christmas tree and everything was set up. Touya and her Father where finally coming home from work and collage. Sakura wanted to call Syaoran but it might be kinda silly calling some on because of something they wrote."To hell with silly," Sakura smiled pushing the buttom. Sakura's eyes widened."Oh God I can't believe I pushed it," Sakura said. Syaoran heard his phone ringing in his pocket. Syaoran didn't opened his eyes but he took his phone out. Syaoran closely opened his eyes half way. "Hello?" He said still in his medation stance.
"Umm....hey Syaoran it's me Sakura." Sakura said dumbly. Syaoran heart skipped a beat. "I hope this isn't a bad time," Sakura said. Syaoran didn't say anything. "Syaoran, you there?" Sakuar asked. "Um...yeah" Syaoran fianlly answered. "So what do you want?" Syaoran asked.
"Well, how was your week to start things off?" Sakura said becoming more comfortable.
She walked over to ther bed and lyed on her stomach. "Well, besides chritsmas coming, I was drunk last night and I said some stuff I didn't mean to say, and that about it nothing exciting." Syaoran said as he lyed on his back.
"You got drunk?" Sakura said sounding shocked. "It's no big deal, damn don't make such a fuss." Syaoran said. "Okay," Sakura said claming down. "And your week?" Syaoran asked. "Well, I've been shopping for christmas, my Dad and big brother are coming over for christmas and all the way to new year, Tomoyo is experimenting with indiana tatooing and that's about it, " Sakura said.
Syaoran sighed longing to see Sakura agin. "Syaoran did you hear a word I said?" Sakura said with a small laugh. Syaoran gasped at that second and sat up. "I have an Idea, can you hold on one minute," Syaoran said. "Um..sure" Sakura said a little confused.
Syaoran got up and ran out the training from to his office. Syaoran looked on his calender it was like a week and two days before christmas. Syaoran grinned."Hey Sakura, what's you Email address?" Syaoran asked. "Um...I'll send it to you over my phone hold on," Sakura said as she went to his Instant message file and send Syaoran her address. Syaoran opened the mail and wrote it down. "Did you get it?" Sakura asked. "Yeah, when it your dad and brother coming home?" Syaoran asked looking on the caleneder once agin. "Um...it's not till friday, why?" Sakura asked still in the dark.
"Well, how would you like to have a christmas party at my house, you can bring as many people as you want," Syaoran said. Sakura smiled. "Really?" Sakura said.
"Yeah, there's nothing else to do, and I need a brake from all this thinking," Syaoran said walking to the window looking at the garden. "Okay, but as long as you let me do something for you, I feel spoiled right now, I haven't had a Xmas party since I was 13," Sakura said. "Sure, and don't worry about food and stuff, I've got it, "Syaoran said.
"But, I don't have enough money to go to Hong Kong," Sakrua said. Syaoran turned on his computer went to an airline wedsite. "I'll take care of that too," Syaoran said typing. "How many people do you want to bring?" Syaoran asked. "I can invite everyone in my class and I think that would be about 55 people," Sakura said counting Tomoyo and Rita.
Syaoran begain typing there names and ages and stuff like that. "Okay, I'll send the passports to them, it should be there tomorrow morning," Syaoran said.
"Thanks Syaoran, your the best." Sakura said. "No problem, I'll see you soon, I have work to do." Syaoran said. "Okay," Sakura said hanging up. Sakura sighed and then smiled. "AHHH!" Sakura screaming jumping up and down.
Later that day Syaoran was working over time, the Xmas party was in three days and everything had to be perfect. Syaoran had every servent helping him on making it the best party. Eriol finally came home about 11:12 at night. Eriol could here Syaoran barking orders. "Okay, I can do this," Eriol said out loud as he opened the door.
Syaoran was in the training room the servent were running in and out. Meling was still kinda stiff she was in the kitchen all day talking to a cheif about Syaoran. Eriol walked in the training room it looked like a mess. Meling finally came out. "Hey Eriol, what going on?" Meling asked. "I don't know, I just got back," Eriol said. Syaoran turned around. Syaoran looked at Eriol and Meling and turned around. "No, I want it a half inch over," Syaoran barked to the servent on the ladder.
Eriol sighed. "Syaoran were sorry, how many time do I have to say it," Eriol said walking to Syaoran. "Fine, just don't get in my way, and do it agin, I will kill you both," Syaoran said not looking. Eriol looked confuesd. "Okay, what's all this?" Eriol said. "I'm having a Xmas party in three day, I was talking to Sakura today and it just popped in my head. I invited all her friends and classmates." Syaoran said."WHAT!" Meling and Eriol said. "Yeah, I was bored and I needed a brake from thinking about my family it'll only make it harder for me to find out," Syaoran said.
"But what about that box the dude at the mall gave me to give to you?" Meling said. "I'll open it when I'm ready.," Syaoran said. "But, if you really want me to forgive you I'll need your help," Syaoran said. Meling and Eriol where speechless.
"Okay," Eriol said just tell me how you want it," Eriol said. Syaoran showed Meling and Eriol the blue prints. "WOW," Meling said.
"Well hop to it," Syaoran said. Syaoran walked over to the window it was snowing agin. Syaoran looked down it was a llittle blood on the snow. 'How in the world,' Syaoran thought looking. "Syaoran!" Eriol called making Syaoran jumped.
Syaoran turned around. I was thinking light up floors," Eriol said with a werid look on his face. Syaoran nodded. "Sure just as long as it stay with the Xmas theme. Syaoran turned to see the in the snow but there wasn't anything there. Syaoran sighed. "Pull your self together," Syaoran said out loud to himself.
It was two days until the party Syaoran was sleep on the dinning room couch. Syaoran woke up sweating. He didn't have a dream but he smelled something from the kitchen. Syaoran got up and walked to the main kitchen. Eriol and Meling where still working in the training to. "Good morning, Master Li," Said the three cheifs."Mornin' everyone," Syaoran said running his hand threw his dark red strick hair. "I made you one on you favorite, smoothies. Banana mix berry, Master Eriol and Mistress Meling are working on the Xmas party. them woke up really early and started." Said the three cheif handing Syaoran his smoothies. Syaoran took a big glup of the cool drink. "Thanks," Syaoran said walking out the kitchen and went straight to the training room.
Syaoran opened the door. Syaoran looked around it was almost done. Syaoran was a little nervous that he was going to see Sakura. "Morning Syaoran," Meling said plugging in the sound system. "You have a hot sound system." Eriol said. Syaoran finished his shake. "Guys, I'll be back before this afternoon, I need to get something," Syaoran said. "Okay, sure, we'll be here." Meling said. Syaoran went up stair and took a shower and changed his clothes. Syaoran went to the mall and since it was now a week and two days before christmas Syaoran wanted to get Sakura something perfect, something that would last forever.
