Life's So Unfair
Chapter 8 -Together
Luki's Pov
No, this can't be happening. No, she mustn't get herself too attracted with the boys at her school especially that Li kid. Li...Li where have I heard that before, it sounds so familiar yet I cannot remember.
Just a couple more weeks left before Tai comes. Now for the time being, I have to make sure Sakura doesn't get too attracted to the boys. Here she comes, better put up with the act.
Normal Pov.
"Sakura, you're up early," said a smiling Luki.
"Yea, I am. Just getting up early to get to school on time." Sakura replied.
"Oh this is a change for you."
"Yea, it is." Sakura said eating her toast and drinking orange juice. "Well, I better get going."
"Alright, bye." Luki waved and kept waving for a while until she was out of site. She was hoping for Sakura to wave back, or at least say bye. But she didn't, and now Luki was mad. Argg, she's suppose to treat me like a mother should be treated but she seems to be ignoring me, c-could it be she figured out what I'm trying to do. She gasped, no, I mustn't think that. The plan won't failed.
Sakura made her way to school and knew Syaoran would be coming around the corner at any time now. As she was walking, she was thinking about the kiss they shared last night. It felt so right, but she still can't believe they've kissed. She had admitted yesterday that she had fallen for him. It shocked her that she had said that but she knew it was true. As she walked on, she noticed Syaoran wasn't where he would usually be. I wonder where he could be. He's usually here by now.
After waiting for a bit, Sakura decided to walk to school instead of waiting anymore. She knew if she waited any longer she would be late for school and she wouldn't want that when now she's trying her best to get to school on time everyday. She sighed, she wondered where Syaoran was. That was all Sakura thought about the whole day, Syaoran. She couldn't seem to get her mind off him. No matter what she did, it would always lead to Syaoran somehow.
Even at lunch, her mind was on Syaoran. She didn't even hear her friends talking to her.
"I was thinking that all us should go to the movies this weekend," asked Naoko. Everybody nodded, while Sakura was daydreaming again. "Hey, Sakura you in?" Naoko continued saying and waving her hand in front of her face. "Sakura...Sakura...Sakura...Sakura...SAKURA!"
"HOE!" Sakura yelled as everybody looked at her.
"Finally, I got your attention." Naoko said crossing her arms. "You don't know how long I've been calling your name."
"Sorry, I wasn't paying attention."
"Yeah, I can see that."
"Well, I gotta go. Whatever you wanted to talk to me about, tell me later k." Sakura got her stuff and left.
"Boy, she didn't even touch her lunch. You think something is wrong with her?" asked a concern Chiharu.
"I'm not sure but I know that something is definitely different about her." Rika said. Everybody agreed.
"Did you know that a demon enters ones body when they're depressed, you won't be able to tell if one has entered or not but at midnight you'll see the look in their eyes which will then tell you if they're a demon or not. Then during the daytime, they daydream an-" Yamazaki started telling his lies.
"NO MORE LIES!" yelled Chiharu who then started hitting her boyfriend on the head.
The rest of their friends sweat dropped. Eriol whispered something to Tomoyo who then whispered something back. "Hey, what are you guys whispering about?" Rika asked suspiciously.
"Nothing, nothing at all." Eriol replied with Tomoyo nodding beside him.
"Really?" asked Rika again. She knew something was going on, with her friend Sakura and now with Eriol and Tomoyo. She wasn't stupid that's for sure.
"Yeah, well we have to go. So see ya guys later." Tomoyo said and left with Eriol.
"You know what, something is up with those two and Sakura." Rika watched as her two friends left.
"Yeah, I agreed." Naoko said.
By now Chiharu had stopped hitting Yamazaki and listened on to the conversation. "I agreed too," She said.
"Same here." Yamazaki popped in. Now they were just thinking of their friends and what they were hiding from them.
It was near the end of the day and Sakura was just thinking whether or not she should visit Syaoran. She had a feeling he would be sick since as he didn't come to school or it could've been something else.Like he could be in the hospital, or he left Japan, or he di- Sakura stopped herself for thinking such things. No that couldn't have happen could it? She thought to herself. Finally making up her mind, she figured she would visit Syaoran.
Sakura didn't know where Syaoran lived so she had to ask someone and who other than the one and only Eriol. Of course she had a bit of trouble asking him, because he would keep asking her questions as to why she wanted Syaoran's address. Well, it was mostly Tomoyo but Eriol did ask too. When she found Eriol, she found Tomoyo with him as well and well, Sakura had a bit of trouble getting the address but she finally got it when they got the answer they wanted to hear.
"No, no. I didn't mean that." Sakura said trying to defend herself.
"No, I heard you alright, Sakura. You said you like him, unless my ears weren't hearing things. She did say it didn't she Eriol?" Tomoyo said.
"Yes, yes she did. I heard it clearly." Eriol replied.
By now Sakura was blushing hard. "It just came out, I didn't mean that."
"No, it didn't, stop lying." Tomoyo said. "You're blushing, so stop denying it."
Sakura gave up. It was no use trying to lie to her friends, especially when Tomoyo knew her very well since they had been best friends and cousins ever since they were born. "Alright, I do like him, happy?"
"KAWAII!" Tomoyo squealed. Everybody looked at her. (They're still in school) "Oops, sorry." She apologized. Then turning back to Sakura, she bombarded her with her questions.
Sakura and Eriol sweat dropped. This was Tomoyo. "Well, Tomoyo. I think we should get going now," said Eriol.
"Aww, but I'm not finished askin-" Tomoyo stopped and realized what Eriol was trying to tell her. "Oh alright, bye Sakura. I guess I'll have to ask you another time."
"Well, bye Sakura." Eriol said. He quickly scribbled something on a small piece of paper and gave it to Sakura.
"What's this?" Sakura asked.
"Why, it's Syaorans address. Well, we got to go. Bye." Eriol said before walking out with Tomoyo and waving to her.
"OK, thanks." Sakura yelled hoping they could hear her. They were out of site soon enough. Seems like they had something important to do. She thought as she walked out heading to where Syaoran lives.
Syaoran Pov.
I was sick, or at least I thought I was. I stayed in bed practically the whole day thinking about yesterday. About the kiss Sakura and I shared and how I was about to ask her out. Repeating that in my mind, I had just realized that I was about to ask her out. I sat up straight in my bed, I was about to ask her out. I wanted to slap myself, how could I've let that happen. It was a good thing I was interrupted or I would've asked her.
Wait, why is it such a bad thing? Asking her out isn't a bad thing but a good thing then why am I sayin-
I sighed, I have fallen for her. Mother will definitely be disappointed with me when she finds out that I've fallen in love with a girl who is not my fiancé. This is not good at all. The best thing to do would be to stay away from her, but I can't do that. She didn't do nothing wrong and doesn't deserve to be treated like that. I guess...well mother won't know if nobody tells her.
Sakura, I thought. Would she want to go out with me, if I asked her? What if she doesn't like me? What if she already likes someone? What if she has a boyfriend? What if-
Argg, too many what ifs' I don't know if she would go out with me but I'll give it a try. She might even say yes. I wouldn't be too worry if she had a boyfriend because if she did, I would somehow know about it.
Wei was trying to wake me up this morning for school. I was usually a early riser but today I just didn't feel like waking up. So the only good reason I could think up for not going to school is I'm sick.
I heard a doorbell and then Wei talking to someone. I wondered who it was, I don't usually get visitors. Soon enough, there was a knock at my door interrupting my thoughts. I wondered what Wei wanted.
Normal Pov.
Sakura held onto the piece of paper which had the address on it. She noticed that Syaoran lived in an apartment which was not far from her house. She never knew that. Finally reaching the place she rang the doorbell. She expected somebody to open the door, but no one did. Turning around to leave, the door opened unexpectedly. An old man had opened it.
"Yes?" The man asked.
Sakura wondered if she had the right apartment. "Um, I think I got the wrong apartment but is this where Syaoran lives?"
Wei looked at the young girl in front of him and wondered who she was. Maybe she was a friend. "Why, yes he's here. Are you here to see Master Syaoran, miss..." he trailed off.
"Sakura, Sakura Kinomoto and yes, I'm here to see him if I can." Sakura smiled. She liked this man, he seemed very nice and well polite.
Wei smiled back at her. Well, she seems nice, he thought. "Alright, Miss Sakura. I'll see if he'll see you. Please come right in while I get him for you." Wei told her.
Sakura stepped in the neat and tidy apartment. "Alright, and thanks um..." She paused, she didn't know what to call him.
He chuckled. "I'm Wei, Syaoran's butler well actually the Li's butler but for now I'm here taking care of the young master." He said.
"OK, thanks Wei." Sakura was surprised at that fact. Wei then excused himself so he could get Syaoran. When he left, Sakura looked around the place.
Knock Knock
"Master Li?" Wei asked not sure if he was awake or not.
"Yes, Wei." Syaoran said from his room.
"You have a visitor."
What Syaoran wanted was just peace and quiet so he can think, think about the one thing on his mind. He didn't want any visitors at this time but what if it was someone important. "Who is it?"
"She says her name is Sakura Kinomoto, Master Li."
Hearing this made him alert. Sakura, what is she doing here? he thought. "Wei, um..can you send her in? I'm kind of not in the mood to get up."
"Alright." Wei said before he left to get the young girl. "Miss Sakura?"
"Yeah."Sakura turned to face him. She hoped she could see Syaoran.
"Master Syaoran said you could see him. I'll show you the way to his room as he had said that he wasn't in the mood to get up."
"Alright." Wei led Sakura to Syaoran's room. "Thanks, Wei." She said.
"You're welcome, Miss Sakura."
"Please just call me Sakura."
"Alright, well I'll be leaving you now." Wei left Sakura standing in front of the door. He knew he would be seeing a lot more of this girl.
Should she knock? Of course, it would be rude not to and just barge into his room like that. Oh, I can't do this. I'm too nervous, well it's too late to turn back now seeing as I'm already here. Well here goes nothing. She thought and sighed before knocking.
"Come in," came a males voice.
Sakura slowly opened the door and saw Syaoran leaning against his pillow. She walked in. "Hey, how are you feeling? Are you sick?"
"I'm okay." He replied. Sakura walked closer to his bed. "Um...sorry I don't have anywhere for you to sit but you ca-"
Sakura interrupted him. "No, I'll stand. Besides I'm not going to be here for long. I just came by to see if you were okay."
"Oh ok." He said with some disappointment in his voice. He didn't want her to leave, he wanted her to stay.
Sakura thought she heard some disappointment in his voice but shrugged it off. "Well, so are you planning on coming to school tomorrow?" She asked breaking the silence between them.
"Yeah." he said not quite sure what to say to her. He was debating whether he should bring up about what happened yesterday or not.
While he was debating in his mind, Sakura spoke up. "Well, I better be going." She said.
"Wait." He stopped her before going anywhere.
"What is it?" She asked and walked closer to him.
"I..about yesterday...well...what I'm trying to say is...um..." He said trying to find the right words.
"Syaoran, what is it?" She blushed a little remembering about yesterday and she was curious about what Syaoran had to say.
"Well, how should I put this Sakura, would you be my girlfriend?" Syaoran said nervously. He was hoping for her to say yes. He mentally crossed his fingers.
Sakura was shocked. Syaoran just asked her to be his girlfriend, how could she turn down this chance. "Yes, I will." She said with happiness in her voice.
"Good," he came closer to her face and brush his lips against hers. Then he kissed her. She wrapped her arms around him while his were around her waist. Their tongues explored each others mouth. They kept kissing until they ran out of air for their lungs. "cause if you said no I wouldn't let you out of here." He continued with a smirk on his face.
She was shocked that he said that. "Well, I said yes didn't I?" She inquired.
"Yes you did." He said burying his head in her hair. He loved the smell of her, she smelled like vanilla.
"Oh Syaoran, I have to get home." Sakura exclaimed while getting up.
"You have to go already."
"Yeah, I'll see you at school tomorrow."
"Ok, bu-" He never finished his sentence as he kiss her one last time.
She broke the kiss and said. "I really have to go, so I'll see you tomorrow."
"Wait, I'll walk you home." He said as he too was getting up from his bed.
"No, you can't. You're sick remember well just stay here k. I can walk home by myself. Bye Syaoran." She said and gave him a peck on the cheek and left.
"But, I'm not sick. I'm perfectly fine." He sighed and ruffled his hair a bit. If his mother ever found out about his and Sakura's relationship, she would freak. So better keep it to myself and not let her know about it.
"Sakura, you're home. You're usually home earlier, what took you so long?" Luki greeted.
"I had something to do." Sakura replied coldly. She didn't know why she was being so cold towards her. Like she had told herself many times, she has forgiven her but why be cold to her. Because she can't be trusted. She's planning something. A voice inside her head told her.
Hearing her coldness, Luki can't help but be angry. She was mad inside and the outside but she wouldn't show it on the outside for Sakura to see. "Oh ok, well dinner's ready."
Sakura sat across from Luki. Throughout dinner, Luki was trying to make conversation with her asking her about school and boys. "So, Sakura. Are you interested in any of the boys at your school?"
Sakura was only interested in Syaoran but why the hell would she tell her. So instead of speaking truthfully she said, "No."
That's good. Good good. Luki said. After that their dinner was silence, it was good to have peace and quiet. When they were finished Luki simply volunteered to wash the dishes. So that left Sakura to take a shower and head to bed.
"KAWAII!" Tomoyo squealed for the fourth time of the day. "OMG, I can't believe it! I'm so happy for you!"
"Thanks, Tomoyo. But can you not scream so loud. People are looking." Sakura said while looking around. Indeed, there were people looking at them.
"Why? Everybody needs to know about this. Oh look here comes, Eriol and Li." Tomoyo said pointing in the direction the guys were coming.
When they reached them, Eriol was the first to speak. "So, Tomoyo, why are you screaming so loud? We can hear you from all the way over there." Pointing to the direction he and Li were in before coming to them.
She blushed. "Sorry, I can't help it. Did you know that Syaoran and Sakura are finally together?"
Eriol looked at them and then at Li. "Why didn't you tell me? This is exciting news, you should've told me Syaoran."
"Um..well slipped my mind." Syaoran said like it was no big deal. Tomoyo and Eriol were alike in some ways, they would be perfect for each other.
Tomoyo & Eriol stared at him. "It slipped your mind?" They both asked at the same time.
"Um yeah." He said as he held Sakura's hand.
"Li Syaoran, how can you forget such an important thing? Do you not love Sakura enough to remember that you guys are going out?" Tomoyo said angrily. She couldn't believe the guy Sakura liked would forget such a simple thing.
They were both mad at him because of something so unimportant. Okay, he had to agreed it was quite important. Who knew that lying about something would make them practically scream their heads off in his face. "Guys, I'm only messing with you. I mean how can I forget about this." He said as he looked at Sakura. She was the only one that knew he was messing with them.
"What? Only messing with us?" Tomoyo and Eriol replied at the exact same time. Getting no response from him, they noticed he and Sakura had left them. "How could they?" They replied again at the same time. (They weren't facing them and when they were, S+S were gone) They both blushed as they said that. "They left us." Again they said it together. "You know what?" "Um, you go first" "Ok, I will." "Or maybe not" "How-" They both stopped there knowing that they wouldn't be able to get a word out if they kept speaking at the same time. So saying bye, they both headed towards class.
