"Next time I pick the movie and you get the popcorn." She stopped throwing the food at him. Somehow she managed to trip over something on the floor causing him to catch her. Also spilling the rest of her water on his white t-shirt.

Now that she had the whole theater's attention she was blushing beet red. -

Chapter five in this story might not have been my best work and I don't intend to describe a full battle like that again. I had two purposes for it. One to show how powerful Sakura had become. I was hoping that I had done a good job anyways. The second was to bring out Tomoyo's ability to stop time. I like to play around with what is happening. What can I say? I like to have playing room when I write.

Now for the thank you's and any answers:

Little Pink Boo- Don't cry. *sniffs* I'll try not to make the chapter to terribly sad.

Moon Maiden 625-I'm glad that you thought that it was funny. I thought it was a nice touch. I think no magic for a whole day would be hard on Sakura.

Chapter 7

"Sakura it's alright." Li kept telling her. He glared at the other people that were in the room. They quickly went on their way.

"No it's not!" She kept her voice down. "I can use.."

He stopped her by taking her hand in his. "Sakura, no you can't." He whispered before he pulled her toward him.

"Syaoron what are you doing?" She asked telepathically.

"Nothing yet." He answered back. He looked straight into her eyes causing her to blush just slightly.

She quickly covered it up though. "Syaoron, no." She spoke through his mind and stepped away from him.

"Sakura what happened to you?" He asked her out loud.

"Nothing. I don't want to talk about it." Sakura led the way out of the theater. "I can't talk about it." She whispered.

He didn't understand what that meant but he intended to find out. He could tell from the way her aura was flaring off that whatever it was really had hurt her. 'If only I had been there. Maybe I could have stopped it.'

'You couldn't have Li-kun.' She hadn't turned around but she had heard him.

Sakura looked like she would hurt anyone that came near her. She didn't have to use magic for that either. "Sakura you want to go to the park?" He could still feel her anger and he wanted to calm her down a little bit. She could hurt somebody.

She smiled. "Yes, that would be fun."

"Good." He took her hand as he passed by her.

"Li." She whispered in her mind.

Sakura shivered at the some of the memories that were flying through her head. Some of the things that had happened she didn't like to think about. In fact it was because of them that she had begun to train harder. There were enough people that had messed with her and her family to convince her that she had to be strong.

Syaoron got off his swing that he had been on. He walked away a little bit getting her to stop.

"What's wrong Syaoron?" She asked concerned. She had stopped the swing. He felt her hand on his shoulder.

"You." He answered before he started tickling her on her stomach. She hadn't seen the mischievous look in his eyes when she had asked that question.

"Syaoron.... you.... can... stop." She informed him between breaths while she was laughing.

"Why?" He continued tickling her.

"because...." She didn't get the rest out before he started tickling her feet. He had somehow found a way to keep her still at her waist area to go after her feet.

The passers by looked at the couple while they chuckled. This kept up for a few minutes until he figured that she wouldn't be thinking about whatever it was that she was thinking about. He helped her to her feet waiting for the sunset. They remembered when they were little and playing on the swing sets. They remembered playing around after there lessons were completed. They even remembered how Touya would react whenever they came hand in hand to her house. "There won't be any of that now." Sakura whispered at the sad memories of the years gone by.

"Ne, I hope that next time I go to your house." He stopped the sentence. She looked to see why he had stopped. Her breath stopped when she looked at him.

"Syaoron don't." She whispered but she wasn't heard. He kissed her with all the passion that he had held in since he had seen her at the fair.

The passion behind the kiss took her by surprise. She wanted to kiss him more and didn't know what to do. To her it felt right but she was still fighting it. She pulled away out of breath. "Don't do that again." She whispered.

He looked momentarily hurt but hid it. There was hope. She had kissed him back.

"I won't until you're ready Sakura." He couldn't promise to not kiss her again.

They enjoyed a little more time at the park before deciding that they were hungry. Sakura without thinking about it teleported them right next to a busy street where they would find some kind of restaurant to eat.

He looked around him and not seeing anyone levitated them to the rooftops of the next building.

-At the house-

Tomoyo couldn't believe the fuss that was being made. She hadn't meant to stop time. "Eriol. I'm going to be alright. Why are you fussing so?" she looked at him wanting to disappear to her room.

Yelan had begun to set up some training sessions for the young woman. "Tomoyo, I know you know that Sakura's life is in danger. You have to be able to control your power."

"I can see that Mrs. Li but I didn't' ask to have this power. I only want to make her clothes for her battles and film her." Tomoyo responded.

"Don't you see that you're supposed to do more than that?" Eriol asked.

Tomoyo glanced dejectedly at her friend. "I know."

Yelan gave the young woman a good look. She understood where she came from. She remembered when she was a young woman and hadn't asked to be given her powers. She wouldn't go back now. She never regretted her decisions afterwards though.

"Tomoyo, I understand what you're going through. You know when I was just coming into my powers I was a lot like you. I like fashion; I liked playing with cameras, as well as playing matchmaker. One day I was outside playing with my brothers and someone came to attack us. I had somehow managed to move teleport to where they were. We were playing hide and go seek. I was the one hiding." She paused, "They had begun to take my brothers but didn't succeed. I sent a kick to his back. He had already been off balance."

Yelan ended the story. "Are you saying that I'm stuck with this? I don't want the power to stop time. If I can do that then what else am I capable of doing?" Tomoyo inquired.

"We don't know. We have to find out. You have to train. We will be starting first thing in the morning." Mrs. Li ordered her.

"Come on. I think that it is time for us to go to bed." Eriol led the way to her room.

"Eriol, they're not back yet. Do you think that there is something wrong?"

-Sakura and Syaoron-

"Sakura what..."

"Shhhh." She held a warning finger to her lips. "Do you sense that?" She questioned in his mind.

He was about to correct her reminding her that she wasn't supposed to be using magic just before he realized that they had already broken those rules that his mother had made. "Yeah I sense it." He responded in the same way.

They were both poised and ready when the people that had been hiding came out. "Can you sense anyone magical among them Syaoron?" She did a spin kick to the man that she was fighting.

"Yeah...." he didn't have time to finish the thought.

The fight was over within a matter of moments. The couple couldn't understand how it was seeing that there had been another sorcerer somewhere around them.

Sakura was tired as well as Syaoron. They walked to the mansion to find that his mother was waiting on them. Sakura saw the glare that she gave them. 'No wonder he can glare so well.' Sakura thought to herself.

"You two weren't supposed to use magic." She reminded them.

"We're sorry Okaasan." Li bowed to her as he apologized.

"I'm sorry Mrs. Li it was my fault." Sakura bowed before she left the room.

"Li could you show me where my room is? This house is too big." She nervously looked around her.

His mother nodded her head telling him that it would be alright. "Hai." He answered.

"Sakura-chan I think that we need to talk. I know that something has happened to you I just don't know what?"

Sakura's mind flashed back to the kiss that they shared in the park. "Sometime soon Syao-kun." It was all she could say before she went into her room.

Li watched her disappear. "Sakura, what happened to you?"
