Disclaimer: Whatchu think I'm gonna say? I don't own Card Captor Sakura.

ruby eyed girl: Yes. Meiling did turn into an egg... it was just some weird space thing, because the point I'm trying to get across is they are aliens... so they do weird things. That also connects to the Syaoran part. When he was close with Sakura, he was getting 'aroused.' Those things that were happening were what happens when he does. (since he is an alien...) The pants thing was you know when normal guys get 'hard', that happens to him as well. It was like the final stage, first sweaty, then itchy, then that. Hope I cleared things up for ya'.

Chapter 3

Sakura uneasily sat down onto the couch. It was obvious she was thinking and in one of her serious moments. Many thought she was just a nice girl, then her few close friends thought she was bad-ass and cussed way too much, but she wasn't either. She was nice to people and she did like to have a good time but still...

She thought about a lot of things, her dead mother. Her father.. how he had become so cold. Touya, her brother, who had moved away and barely ever came to visit. Her life seemed to fall apart and she was just numb to the pain now. She wasn't sure if she didn't accept it, because she thought she did or if it was just her. Often she thought it was her... she didn't seem to care.

Everything around her that she thought she had such a tight grip on had seemed to disappear and it was like her mind had no reaction. Her body had started doing what her mind should of. She was very skinny, twitched a lot, had to pee 4 to 5 times a day. She knew some people had noticed it. She knew people were worrying and it made her sick. Every time some tried to 'talk' to her about it she would just say it either wasn't a big deal or there was no problem at all.

Sakura sat up and stared blankly at the two girls chatting away. They were talking about the party tonight. Running her hand threw her hair she sighed as she thought about it. She was in no mood to go now.

"Hey.. Sakura, you okay?", Tomoyo asked, sincere worry on her face.

Meiling instantly stopped at the tone of Tomoyo and Syaoran turned to see her answer as well.

Sakura plastered a smile on her face, "Yeah.. just tired, almost fell asleep there.", Sakura said lying so expertly not even Tomoyo noticed, but surprisingly Syaoran did.

He was staring at her as Tomoyo and Meiling went back to chatting. She looked over at him, his intense gaze making her gulp and look away quickly. She shakily picked up the remote and leaned back into the couch, still feeling his gaze on her. She flipped through the channels casually and glanced over at Syaoran who had began to watch the television. Sighing she scratched her neck and got up, heading over to the kitchen.

She opened the refrigerator hungrily craving for some thing sweet. Looking around and seeing nothing that would satisfy her she then opened the freezer to be greeted by Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream. Grinning she grabbed the container and a spoon and headed out to the living room once again.

"Hey, Tomoyo, you don't mind?", Sakura asked opening the top of the ice cream and gesturing her spoon to it.

Tomoyo looked up and shook her head smiling.

At that Sakura took the spoon dug into the soft, frozen sweetness and put a whole bunch in at once. Noticing Syaoran had sat on the couch next to her she stared at him.

"You want?", Sakura said with a mouthful.

Syaoran smirked at that and took the offered spoon, digging in and taking a more reasonable bite. Sakura glared at his laughing eyes trying to stick her tongue out, but her mouth was still full. The cold was beginning to burn and her eyes were watering. Finally managing it to go down her throat she coughed a bit and quickly snatched the spoon from Syaoran.

"Hey! I wasn't done.", he whined.

"Go get your own spoon, bitch.", Sakura happily let the cold sweetness roll down her throat as she ate.

Syaoran pouted and stared at her for awhile before sighing and slowly got up to go to the kitchen. Walking over to some draws he pulled out a couple until he had found the silverware. Pulling out a spoon he skipped, well not exactly but was pretty happy for his usual state. He thought about how Sakura seemed to lie... and about the mission, we still haven't received word about what's going on.

He sat back down on the couch, scooting closer to the ice cream and Sakura. Their spoons collided and Sakura looked up at him annoyed, she got crazy when it came to anything sweet. Syaoran stared her down as well.

"EIIIIIIIIIIIIII!", Sakura screamed and flicked ice cream straight into his face. Syaoran stared at her in disbelief as the melting liquid slid down his face. Sakura giggled at his face and was biting on her lower lip holding back laughter.

Syaoran smirked as he dug his spoon into the bucket and flung it on her.

"I can't believe you did that! Your going down!", Sakura yelled. Digging her hand into the bucket she grabbed some and smeared it onto his hair and face. Syaoran did the same and then a fight broke out of ice cream throwing.

"I'm so sticky!", Sakura whined.

"You started it!", Syaoran countered.

"Did not!", she defended.

"Did so!", he yelled.

"Stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it!", Sakura screeched as she covered her head.

The throwing ceased and Syaoran and Sakura looked each others ice cream covered bodies over. Syaoran started laughing while Sakura stuck out her tongue as she tried to sweep the sticky mess out of her hair but it was no use.

"You two are just too cute!", Tomoyo laughed as she video taped.

Sakura gaped at her, "Did you record that whole thing?"

Tomoyo nodded.

Sakura gave a death glare.

"That, he", Sakura sputtered as she pointed a finger harshly at Syaoran, "Is in so way cute and now I'm going to have to take a shower and wash my clothes and-"

"Chill Saku.", Tomoyo said casually. "The party is tonight, you weren't gonna wear those clothes anyways. Just go take a shower."

A long silence went threw the air, Tomoyo knew Sakura was mad for her making up such a simple explanation.

"Fine.", Sakura stated as she glared daggers at Syaoran.

Tomoyo grinned and Syaoran stood there dumbly.

"You can take one after Sakura", Tomoyo said looking him over.

Syaoran just nodded standing there a bit awkwardly since he couldn't sit down due to his ice-cream covered self.

Tomoyo casually said, "So, anyways, I suppose you wouldn't want to come along with us, and maybe stay the night, or whatever is cool with you."

Meiling's face slowly turned into a grin as she looked at Tomoyo's questioning face. Syaoran started to shake his head, knowing what Meiling was thinking.

"We would love to go and stay!", Meiling laughed happily.

Syaoran thought about this. This would be good for the mission.. since clearly we are supposed to make friends with the Sakura girl.

Tomoyo looked over at Syaoran.

"Yeah, sure.", he shrugged.

- shower -

"Stupid.. him..", Sakura mumbled trying to scrub the sticky ice cream out of her hair. Finally succeeding she rinsed the soap off of her and turned the knobs off. An eerie silence filled the bathroom as she opened the shower door and walked out. Grabbing a towel she quickly wrapped it around herself. Then taking a second one and wrapping it around her hair as fast as she could. She hated being in bathrooms. They just spooked her. Grabbing her clothes she scurried over to the door and popped her head out. There was no one so she walked into the hall headed towards Tomoyo's room.

"Yeah the bathroom is just down that hall!", she could hear Tomoyo faintly yell.

Before she knew it Syaoran was standing right in front of her.

"Yeah it's right down there.", Sakura pointed to a door.

Syaoran nodded slowly taking in her body then walking down towards the door she had pointed to. Rolling her eyes she easily walked passed him.

- Tomoyo's room -

"Your undies and stuff aren't messed up are they?", Tomoyo asked.

"Nope.", Sakura said.

"Kay.", Tomoyo started looking in the closet as Sakura changed.

After she had slipped on her bra and undies she went over to Tomoyo's walk-in closet.

She looked around in it and sighed, "You are one lucky bitch."

Tomoyo turned around grinning and winked. She walked out and handed Sakura some clothes.

Sakura took them and started putting them on one-by-one. Meanwhile Tomoyo was rummaging around for what she was going to wear. After Sakura had finished she went over to the mirror to get a look at her.

She had on a blank black tee-shirt, with a fitted, thin white hoodie over it with cuffs on the wrists. Also she had on a pair of ripped jeans.

Walking over to, as Tomoyo would call it, 'A-whole-bunch-of-crap-you-put-on-after-you-get-dressed-dresser.' What a crappy name, Sakura thought as she shook her head. Going through the many things she had decided to put on a couple of buttons on the pocket of her jeans, a white studded belt and 2 black 'sex bracelets'.

After finishing she laid on the bed watching Tomoyo absentmindedly finish getting ready, she took in her appearance.

Tomoyo was wearing a From First To Last (OoOoh 3) black shirt, maroon colored arm warmers and a pair of jeans. She also had on a studded belt but it was hot pink and a black choker around her neck.

Tomoyo turned to look at Sakura, "Now it's hair time!"

"Oh yeah.", Sakura sweat dropped, she had almost forgotten about it.

Getting up from the bed she followed Tomoyo into her private bathroom. Plugging in the hair straightener first and setting it to start heating up.

"La la la la la.", Tomoyo sang as she took out the hair dryer and started drying Sakura's hair.

- Is skipping all the boring hair doing -

Tomoyo and Sakura had both of their hair done by each other. Sakura's was short and spiky in the back and then longer bangs in the front. She dyed it all black with red and blonde streaks. Tomoyo's was in pig tails and she had long bangs in the front. Her hair was naturally black but has blue streaks in it.

"Oh and by the way, Meiling and Syaoran are coming with us.", Tomoyo let out as if it were no big deal.

"What?", Sakura questioned.

"Come on, it's not that big of a deal.", Tomoyo replied.

"I think it is! I don't think they go to parties much or anything.", Sakura said.

"So? Just put some X's on there hands and say they're with us.", Tomoyo grinned.

Sakura rolled her eyes as she leaned down to put on her Chucks. She tied the laces and stood up.

"Well what are they going to wear?", Sakura asked. The second she saw Tomoyo's face she knew she shouldn't have asked.

- 10 minutes later -

Sakura sweat dropped as she continued to watch Tomoyo asking Syaoran questions looking him up and down and circling him. He also was only in a towel.

"Okay Syaoran, hurry and change into your boxers.", Tomoyo motioned Syaoran.

"W-what?", he asked dumbfounded.

"You heard me! We'll all turn around", Tomoyo said going into the closet Meiling followed her looking at all the different clothes.

"Meiling just get what you like.", Tomoyo said going through the racks of clothes quickly.

Sakura smirked as she slowly turned around and walked over to the closet.

After changing into nothing but his boxers Syaoran sat on the edge of Tomoyo's bed and fidgeted, blushing slightly.

Tomoyo rushed out of the closet and smiled giving him some clothes.

"You can go into the bathroom while Meiling changes out here.

Syaoran just nodded, everything going by too quick for him to register well. He walked into the bathroom and closed the door softly behind him.

He looked quickly at the clothes and shrugged. Starting to pull on the pants he sweat dropped, they were a little tight but he managed. Pulling the shirt over his head he tugged it down over him. There was a plain leather belt that he put on as well.

Slowly opening the door he looked at Meiling, who looked almost transformed. She had on a heather-grey ringer shirt that had a heart&cross bone design on the front. Under that shirt was black long-sleeves. She had on grey cotton-twill pants and a plain black belt as well. She was putting on bracelets and Tomoyo and Sakura were crowded around her telling her what looked good and such.

Sakura quickly glanced at him and then back to Meiling. About 2 seconds later her eyes went back to him and her mouth dropped open. Tomoyo saw her face and looked to where she was staring.

"OHEMGEESYOULOOKSOGREATMYBOYCLOTHESLOOKGOODYAY!", Tomoyo squealed as she flaunted around Syaoran grinning and looking him over.

Sakura and Meiling were laughing as Tomoyo circled him, he just raising an eyebrow as she inspected him.

"Umm..", Syaoran backed away from Tomoyo a little.

Tomoyo just laughed, "Okay, enough of that! It's almost time for us to be going."

Sakura and Meiling were talking and Tomoyo had stayed behind with Syaoran as they made there way to the garage. Tomoyo's house was pretty big so it took a couple of minutes.

"So... I see you have eyes for little Saku-chan.", Tomoyo smiled innocently.

Syaoran countered quickly, "Where would you get an idea like that?"

Tomoyo glanced at him slyly and then shrugged, "Oh, no where.", still keeping the same tone of voice.

Syaoran stared at her suspiciously, "Well, I don't.", he calmly said.

"Okay then.", she shrugged.

They both were silent after that. The only sound that would be heard was the chatting between Meiling and Sakura.

Reaching the door to the garage Tomoyo opened it, a small 'beep' was heard and then walked out. The rest of them followed her to where a black -insert brand name blahblahblah- car was. Tomoyo took out some keys and unlocked the door. Tapping the 'unlock all' button that was Sakura's cue to open the passenger side door. Meiling and Syaoran glanced at each other then Meiling shrugged opening a back seat door, Syaoran following her actions seconds later.

"So, Tomoyo... you can drive?", Syaoran asked.

Sakura answered for her, "Yup. I can too.", she grinned looking back at Syaoran's astonished face.

"Cool! We can too.", Meiling said grinning as well.

Sakura raised an eyebrow at Syaoran's scowling face, obviously directed toward Meiling.

The car started causing Sakura to turn around. She opened the dashboard compartment and took out some gum, offering a piece to Syaoran and Meiling first, Meiling smiling as she ripped open the foil while Syaoran just nodded and took the gum slowly. Opening it up he popped it in his mouth and sunk into the seat quietly chewing. He was looking through the glass out into the moving scenery blankly.

Sakura didn't notice but she was staring at him... and blushing slightly, taking in how his hair fell into his slightly, his mouth slowly moving as he chewed. Syaoran noticed her gaze and looked at her questioningly.

She coughed and turned out wrinkling up her nose as she thought about what had just.. happened.

'Ewww! That's totally gross to the max. No way can I like him! Ick.. just ick!'

Tomoyo laughed at the different facial expressions she was making.

"What?", Sakura asked.

"Nothing.", Tomoyo smiled.

'Nothing.' Sakura hated that nothing that her friend would say all the time. Ask her a question, 'nothing'. God was it annoying.

Sakura glared daggers at her but Tomoyo was used to it and shrugged it off.

'Ah my poor, poor friend. What a problem it's going to be between you two. Don't worry, Meiling and I will fix that, Tomoyo thought slowly forming a plan in her mind.

The car slowed down as they approached the driveway into the party. It was an apartment complex and there were cars parked everywhere. Seeing a good spot Tomoyo pulled into the area and turned the keys to turn off the car. Placing them into her pocket she opened the door as well as everyone else.

The music could be heard all the way from the parking lot and Syaoran craned his head up to catch a glimpse of it.

"Hey Syaoran! Hurry up!", Sakura called to him as she waited by the entrance.

He quickly walked over to her and followed her into the lobby. They walked across the wooden floor to the stairs and started making there way up. Tomoyo and Meiling were up ahead of them, racing and giggling. Sakura rolled her eyes as she sped up.

After a few flights of stairs they found the apartment, '324'. Tomoyo opened the door to be blasted with music and she grinned and walked inside. A few people started heading towards them, Syaoran was the last person in and he closed the door and looked around.

There was beer cans on the ground and people dancing everywhere. People sitting on couches and chairs making out, some people sitting about just talking. No doubt it smelled because of all of the people and dancing in such a small place. Slowly you got used to it. Syaoran just stood there as Sakura and her friends talked, almost yelling over the music.

"So who's the new kid?", A girl asked slurring her voice, obviously a little more than tipsy.

Sakura wrapped an arm around Syaoran's neck, surprising him.

"Everyone this is Syaoran.", Sakura grinned.

"Well if he's cool with you he is cool with me.", a guy smirked dragging Syaoran over to where some guys were all standing around.

Sakura bit her lip, but then figured he could handle himself.

"So, you mind if I like, go ask your friend to dance?", one of Sakura's friends asked.

"What do I care Rika?", Sakura snapped.

Rika raised an eyebrow and raised her hands up, leaving to go talk to Syaoran.

Tomoyo smirked at Sakura.

Sakura looked at her confused, but before she could ask Meiling had dragged her off to dance, Tomoyo following them. They were out in the crowd rubbing up against god knows who and loving it. Losing there self in the music already they started to sweat but just ignored it and kept having fun.

- Syaoran -

"Hey.", a girl walked up to him and smiled sexily.

"What's up?", he replied.

She grinned and just pulled him toward the music and into the hustle of all the dancers. Getting to a good spot she started dancing with him and laughing.

"My name's Rika, just so you know.", she yelled over the booming sound.

Syaoran started getting more into the music and danced closer with her, but something in him felt odd. He just figured he needed something to drink.

"Hey, I'm gonna to get a drink, you want anything?", he asked.

Rika thought a bit and shrugged, "Beer is good."

He nodded and made his way over to a huge cooler filled with different drinks.

He grabbed two beers and a water bottle. Opening the water first he gulped it down sighing as he finished. Popping off the caps of the beers he sipped from one and made his way back over to where Rika was, but she was dancing with some other guy so Syaoran shrugged and turned around. He saw Sakura lazing on a chair talking with some girl.

"Hey Sakura.", Syaoran looked down at her face, she seemed slightly surprised.

Sitting up she smiled at little, "Hey Syao, sup?"

"Nothing much... just got back from dancing. Ah, Sakura how much have to had to drink?", he asked.

"Not enough! Can I have that?", she pointed toward the beer that was for originally for Rika.

He looked at her hesitantly then slowly handed it to her. She took a couple gulps and sat it down on the table. She stood up and swaggered a little bit Syaoran steadied her by holding her from the waist.

"Maybe we should just sit down, eh?", Syaoran laughed a little.

"Yeah sure.", Sakura closed her eyes a little.

"So anyways Saku, I'm gonna go see Rick for that... stuff.", the girl Sakura was laying with patted Sakura's head and got up slowly making her way towards a bedroom.

Syaoran looked at her raising an eyebrow. She just shrugged and laid her head on Syaoran's shoulder. A couple seconds later she completely dozed off. Syaoran sighed and wrapped a arm around her protectively. He felt an itch in his nose and then a huge sneeze came from him. It caused some sneeze-germs to go onto Sakura. She didn't even stir and he sweat dropped.

A/N - HAHA! I had to make a not-love-fluff ending there.. any who's what a BORING chapter eh? Please bare with me, a bit of foreshadowing in there..if you caught it..more interestingness will come!
