Stars and Love
Chapter five: Hi um...which room is mine?
"No way..."
"What are ya waitin' for kid? Go in! The house won't bite."
Syaoran walks slowly out of the car...
That afternoon when Syaoran went home
"Hello Sakura. I have some news for you."
Touya looked alert. "Cover your ears Kaijuu! And I'm serious! This could make you pass out! It made me pass out!"
"Now Touya, don't say that. Listen Sakura, and I am very proud of the deed I've done."
Sakura raised an eyebrow. "Deed? What deed?"
"I have adopted a child."
Sakura's face turned pale then she calmed down. "A boy or girl? How old?"
"Your age and boy." Touya said. 'Thank god it's not another girl. We have enough trouble in this house.' he thought.
Sakura's face turned pale. The she passed out. "Oh boy..."
"Don't worry Sakura! He'll be here any minute so you don't have to be so exited to pass out on us!" Touya rolled his eyes. 'Ever since when did you become this dense!'
Touya picked Sakura up and took her into her room. "Lucky." he murmured. "You can sleep through this while I gotta face the new twirp." he walks away thinking.
"Hey, I think I should try to pass out and fall asleep too! Yeah!" he called down to Fujitaka.
"Fake yawn. Hey dad! I'm getting tired! I'm gonna take a nap. I'll be upstairs if you need me!" he walked into his room. 'Like I'm gonna wake up to meet the new kid.'
"But Touya!" the door slams shut. Fujitaka sighs.
Nearby a women figure with long dark hair drifting about stands behind Fujitaka. "You did a good deed. I'm very proud of you."
It just happens that Nadesiko was passing by to check on her family. How sweet no?
End of Sakura comes home
(Hey, that reminds me of Snoopy come home...)
The door opens. "Ah! Hello there! Are you hungry? I just made some dinner!" Syaoran stares at the man with glasses.
"Um no. No thanks. I already ate."
"Well you must be tired. Let me tell some people to guide you to your room okay?"
"Sure." Syaoran hopes it wasn't-
"TOUYA! Wake up! Come down here immediately" 'Darn it.' Touya thought.
The same boy that Syaoran saw this morning came down "Yeah-WHAAAT!"
He glared at Syaoran. "It's you! Dad! You adopted him!"
Fujitaka smiled. "I guess you've already met huh? Well then..." 'Please do not tell-'
"SAKURA!" 'Darn it.'
"Touya, get your sister down here."
"But she's not feeling well! She passed out!"
"Carry her down."
Touya grumbled and mumbled. He walked upstairs and picked Sakura up and took her downstairs. He layed her on the couch. "Sakura, wake up." he said.
Sakura opened her eyes. "What just happened?" she sat up. She saw Syaoran.
"Syaoran, why are you here with all your things? Oh did you know what my dad did? He just adopted another boy into our family! Doesn't that suck? When I already have one large problem in this house!" she said, pointing to Touya. Touya mumbled and glared.
Syaoran's face turned red of what she said. He wasn't mad, or blushing either. "Um...Sakura...your dad adopted me."
Sakura stirred for a moment. The she fell on the couch again.
Half hour later
"Hooo..." Sakura moaned. "Where am I?" she looked up. She wanted to faint again. Everyone, Syaoran, Touya, and Fujitaka were standing over her. Her father spoke first.
"Hi honey. Do you feel better now?" Sakura blinked.
"Yeah Kaijuu. It's been half an hour and some one has to wait till you wake up till' we take the new kid up to my room." Touya looked annoyed and glared at his father.
"Well, now, you don't expect me to tell him to sleep in Sakura's room do you?" Syaoran and Sakura blushed. "I don't think you would be comfortable either."
"Whatever." Touya mumbled. Sakura looked up.
"So, your gonna sleep in Touya's room?" Syaoran nodded. "Yeah."
"Okay. You better get to sleep now. It's a school night. And Syaoran I already transferred you to the school nearby. Since your old school's so far away."
"Yeah. Sure. Um...I'm going upstairs."
"Um Touya, go lead Syaoran upstairs to his room."
"You mean my room."
"Both of you's room." (A/N: Is that correct grammar...?)
Touya cursed under his breath as he lead Syaoran up to his room. "This is stupid. Thank god he didn't adopt a girl." he looked at Syaoran. "But your just as bad as one."
Syaoran ignored him and looked away. "Your sleeping on the floor kid."
"He's sleeping on the bed Touya." Touya's dad has good ears. Touya grumbled.
"Fine. You sleep on the extra bed, and I'll sleep on my own. And do not call me big bro or big brother or anything. If you do, you'll end up looking like a rabbit by the time I'm done with you."
Syaoran looked away annoyed. "And don't you even think about messn' with my sister kid. You'll be half way to China if you do."
"Great." Syaoran answered this comment. "I'll be happy there."
"Hey kid, just because my dad adopted you, doesn't mean I can't toss you out the window."
Syaoran shot back. "I'd like to see you try without throwing yourself out."
"Why you lil'-" the door opens.
"Hey um Syaoran, my dad says that you can fight back at Touya if he does something wrong to harass you. Just don't get hurt." she paused. "And it's getting kinda late. Why don't you take a shower and get some shut eye huh?" she said in a soft and to Syaoran, sweet and cute voice.
"Um...sure, thanks." Sakura smiled and glared at Touya then shut the door.
"Saved by a kaijuu." he glares at Syaoran. "Don't think you got away kid. I'm watching your every move. Especially when your near my sis. Don't try to start something kid."
Syaoran smirked. "I already did." Touya got really mad and started to fume. (Anime style.) But before he could do anything, Syaoran shut the door as he walked to the showers and Touya ended up ramming into the wall. "Ow..." he muttered.
'Okay, what was that for? Are you saying that you already like her after not even two full days of being friends?'
other voice
'Well...you gotta like someone sooner or later bud. You don wanna be caught without a girlfriend when your in college...or it's hello to the teasing days.'
'Yeah...I guess so.'
Syaoran was puzzled but agreed with what he thought. He liked Sakura. Or loved sakura. Weather he liked it or not. Even though he's been friends with her for a night and a half. Well something like that. 'Hmm...but hold it. You're going to school tomorrow. There's gonna be a lot of chicks that are gonna drool over you. Just like the last school. But the girls there sucked. And if Sakura's so cute, then there must be a million at school around here! So I think you should just put Sakura on the "like" list. You shouldn't jump to love so fast'
Syaoran took a bath and got ready for bed. By the time he got back into his room, Touya was already asleep. He lied down on his bed and sighed. 'What a life.'
He was about to fall asleep until a noise woke him up. 'PLEEASE don't let it be another dumb robber. Wait, robbers don't get into the house that fast enough to walk down the hallway.' he got up from bed quickly but quietly so he wouldn't wake up Touya to make him suspect he's up to something. He looked out the door. He just missed him. But then he heard a noise at the porch. There was a window in his room so he could see the porch clearly. He walked over and took a peek outside.
But before he could, Iight came out and went right through the window which was being opened by Syaoran. "Iight! Where'd you come from." Iight didn't respond but just flew outside.
Syaoran opened the window quietly and looked outside. There it was, the porch, right to his right. He looked closer and focused on to the area where Iight was floating around. He couldn't see much but he could tell there was a figure there on the porch. It seemed to be playing with Iight until Iight stopped and landed on the figure's head, like it always does.
This time Syaoran could see who it was. It was Sakura. She was the one who walked down the hallway. She was the one who was playing with Iight. She stared into the sky. Then she murmured something that Syaoran couldn't hear. He leaned forward, but went a little too much...
PLOP
"Ow." Sakura looked over at where he heard the sudden noise. It scared her. She thought it was a ghost and looked away. She stuttered.
"W-w-what are you! W-who are you!" she covered her ears and hid her face between her knees. Syaoran smirked. He walked over it Sakura. He leaned very close to her ear.
"It's me." a chill went up Sakura's spine. She tried to shake it off and she shoved Syaoran away. Not knowing it was him. "Get away!"
"It's me Sakura!" Sakura stopped. She looked over at the figure who had one hand on the ground and the other rubbing his head. "I just hit my head on the rocking patio chair." (A/N: I don't know what those are called. Anyone who knows please tell me if you review.)
Sakura's mouth dropped wide open. She ran over to Syaoran. "Thank god it was you not some ghost!" she hugged him real tight. Syaoran turned beet red.
Sakura looked up at Syaoran. "You said you hurt your head?" she said, patting his head like a dog. "Where?"
"Right here. I hit it twice when I fell out the window." Sakura's eyes were wide. "You fell out the window! Why!"
Syaoran didn't want her to know that he fell out because he wanted to hear what she was saying, so he told a fib. "Um...I was looking for Iight. He disappeared when I was talking to him and flew out the window."
"Oh. Well. It looks like your heads pretty much okay. Probably just a minor bruise." she said, rubbing his head. She didn't notice that she was still in his arms. She was too comfortable in his arms even though she was sitting on the hard concrete that her father had put down for the rocking, patio chairs.
'Ever since when did you start to hug her Syaoran?' he thought. Even though Sakura didn't notice, he did.
Sakura was enjoying this; rubbing her hand against Syaoran's already messy hair. She liked the feeling rubbing her hand against his chestnut brown hair. 'What are you doing Sakura! Rubbing his head like that. Oh gosh you better stop.' she did. When she realized what she was doing to Syaoran.
"Oh! Sorry. I guessed I got carried away." she blushed. She still didn't notice she was still in Syaoran's arms. Syaoran raised an eyebrow.
"Carried away? By what?" he had a really playful but curious tone in his voice.
"Um...uh..." Sakura didn't want Syaoran to know that she liked to touch him. Which was probably why she couldn't tell that she was still in his arms.
"Well?"
"I liked your hair." 'SAKURA, THAT IS THE LAMEST EXCUSE FOR THE PHRASE, "I LIKE YOU" CAN'T YOU THINK OF ANYTHING ELSE?'
Syaoran burst out laughing. "Are you sure there isn't anything else you wanna say? Cause it sounds to me that you just lied." 'Like you lied to her? Well, it was a good one at least. I mean, "I like your hair"? You gotta admit that's kinda lame.'
"Is there something you're keeping away from me?" he asked again.
"Uh...no?"
"I'll take that as a yes."
"No, you take that as a no."
"You are keeping something from me aren't you?"
"Maybe..."
"Well, I'm all ears Sakura."
Sakura sighed. 'Well...telling part of the truth wouldn't hurt I guess...'
"I'm glad that I met you as a friend Syaoran Li. Very happy."
"Oh. Is that all?" Syaoran inched his face towards hers. "Um...no but I'm not telling."
"Oh well. I can't force you, but I'll tell you this. If I don't find out now, I'll find out sooner or later." he paused. "So...do you come out here every night?"
"No. Only on weekends and days where a whole lot of things happen."
"So is it that a whole lot of things happen or is it that it's because it's a weekend."
"Both."
"Oh. I understand." Sakura looked up at Syaoran. She still didn't notice she was still in his arms.
"You do?"
"Well, from the point when I met you yeah."
"Oh. I guess so huh?"
Sakura looked up in the sky. Syaoran did the same but he looked over to see Iight. He noticed, that for some reason, Iight seemed to be a lot brighter.
He decided to ask Sakura if she noticed, but before he could, Sakura was asleep against his shoulder. He poked her.
"Sakura, wake up." Sakura didn't move.
"Your gonna be late for school tomorrow." Sakura did nothing.
"Come on now." No response.
After a couple brief moments of trying to wake up sleeping beauty, Syaoran gave up. So, he would did what anyone would do if they were a couple. He carried her up to her room.
'Thank god she's light. And pretty.' he remembered that day when one of his old school friends set him up with this fat girl.
Flashback
"Hey Dell. Wake up. Dell?" Syaoran couldn't wake her up. 'Well. Just take her up to her room and leave. It's as easy as that. You are stronger ever since you finished training.'
Syaoran slipped his arms under her neck and knees and tried to pick her up.
'Holy crap she's heavy! How much does she weigh? Nine to the tenth power or nine to the ten millionth power!' he started to drag her up to her room slightly. And dropped her on her bed. By the time he was done Della was awake.
"Oh Syaoran you shouldn't have! Come here!" she said in this big fat person voice.
"Umm...I gotta go Della." but before he could take one step, Della grabbed his arms and kissed him. Like a pig kiss.
"Bye sweety."
"...yuck." Syaoran mumbled as he wiped his lips with his sleeve.
The next day Syaoran called his friend to help. Nyoko (A/N: I just made up some name. Don't tell me how to spell it. It's a name for Pete's sake.) Had a boyfriend, but agreed to help.
She decided to be his pretend girlfriend until Della got over him. Her boyfriend trusted Syaoran and knew nothing was going on with Nyoko and Syaoran. Nyoko loved her boyfriend too much.
Della finally got over Syaoran and decided to go on a diet. It worked. And she became one of the most popular girls in school. Syaoran still didn't like her one way or another. But they became friends.
End of Flashback
Syaoran laid Sakura on her bed and covered her with her with her with her bed sheets. Sakura was a deep sleeper and went on sleeping. Syaoran put his head near hers and stared. Then he placed a kiss on her cheek. He walked out the door after that moment and headed towards his room. Or Touya's room.
