(a/n) Lol, once again, sorry for cliffies! I was just tempted too many times with the way things are goin' around in the story by itself. :P
Okay, one of the reviewers had asked me why I hadn't included some of the things seen in the anime/manga series, the whole Sakura and Yukito ordeal or any of the magic. The answer? I'll be honest. I don't have much of a fantasy of the whole magic thing AND I haven't seen the anime for quite sometime (try like 5-6 years). Oh wait, that's only the magic part. And about the Yukito thing... well, I don't know. Too many complications when I'm trying to think up of a good way of how S+S will turn out in the end... I already made Kaito up so there. lol
Crazy First Love
Chapter 11 - Accidents
School soccer field, Athletic Sporting Event
Syaoran stepped onto the grass and looked around to see quite the number of people sitting in the bleachers waiting to see the game get started.He yawned as he realized a majority of the audience were ladies and then Eriol came up next to him to give him a bottle of water.
"I hope you're not going to do anything stupid with Kaito playing," Eriol said warningly. Syaoran stared at him taking the water.
"No. I wouldn't do that. What do you think I am, in 8th grade?" he said in slight annoyance and drank.
"Good... or else I'd disqualify you," he sighed in relief.
"What!" he exclaimed in disbelief but he then heard a whistle which came from the school's soccer coach. He grunted and left to the rest of the teammates witht the coach.
"Alright boys... As you can notice, I'm not familiar with you BUT from what I can see, you're probably capable of winning this soccer event this year," the coach said. "So get your butts out there and show me what you can do!"
The team cheered and then they went to the field to face their competitors. Syaoran raised an eyebrow as he saw Kaito. Well... I guess I won't do it then... SHE probably would kill me anyway... he sighed at the thought.
"Ready teams? Then GO!" The whistle blew off and the ball began to start moving across the grass. You can tell some of the spectators couldn't see the ball due to the fast movements by the players.
Syaoran ran across the field, keeping his eye on the ball as one of his teammates were holding the ball and the other team were trying to get it. He waved his hand in the air signalling for a pass and his teammate kicked it sending it a little into the air. What... an amateur...
He sighed as he ran a bit faster to catch up to the landing spot but went a bit ahead. So he used the back of his foot to kick the ball to the front of him and began to run again. He then saw Kaito gaining on him from the side. He smirked but tried to hold back the temptation to trip him. When Kaito finally caught up, he used the top of his foot on the bottom of the ball, lifting it into the air, passing it to someone else.
"Well, to be expected of one of the most athletic people in school," he heard Kaito say. He turned his head when he smiled at him. What is he, a happy-go-lucky dude? Syaoran shook his head and concentrated on the game.
The bleachers
Sakura yawned as she watched the game with Eriol, Tomoyo and of course, Meilin.
"What's wrong?" Tomoyo asked.
"Just... a bit tired I guess," she replied dully.
"Oh...," she then rolled her eyes over to the field. "... So who to root for, Syaoran or Kaito?" she teased.
Now, she asked this when Sakura was taking a drink... so she immediately spat out the coke.
"What in the world are you asking?" Tomoyo laughed at her reaction.
"I'm just asking out of curiosity!" Sakura glared at her. As they continued talking, they heard everyone else cheer as Syaoran's team scored a goal.
"Yay!" Meilin cheered. (a/n - I just have to laugh. lol!)
Sakura slightly squirmed in her seat. Suddenly she felt a bit uncomfortable and it all started happening when Meilin arrived. Well, she didn't show any dislike towards her. She just had an uneasy feeling around her... and Syaoran for that matter. But she didn't show it.
"I'm going to go get a drink. You guys want anything?" she asked getting up from her seat. The three shook their heads and she left them to the game. She then took a detour to the bathroom and stared at herself in the mirror there in front of the sink. What am I doing?
The field
Syaoran slightly yawned as he ran past several opposing players and then made a move to steal the ball. As he was successful, he sees Kaito several meters away from himself and the ball. He smirked. He wasn't that far from the opposing goal so he decided to take a shot before he had a chance to take it from him.
the bleachers
Sakura took her drink from the counter and went back down the middle stairs. Their area was quite close to the field so they had easy view of the game, all the more exciting. But she forgot where the others sat. Ah damn it. Where was their seat! She stared around and then found them a few rows away lower. So she approached her seat to watch the game.
the field
Syaoran was just about to kick the ball until out of nowhere a foot came and took it. What the hell--? He looked up and saw Kaito with the ball, passing it to his teammate, going in the other direction. Some of his own teammates sighed as he frowned.
"Basturd...," he grumbled to himself. He began running after the ball. But to his shock and surprise, someone had already kicked the ball... in the wrong direction and the wrong place.
"Look out!" the guy who kicked shouted in a startled tone. Syaoran heard the crowd gasp as he turned his head to see who got hit, unfortunately. The crowd had gathered around on the bleachers. Kaito and himself had ran over to see who it was and found Sakura on the floor.
"What the-- Sakura?" Syaoran ran over to her as Tomoyo and the others came to see. Kaito then glared at his teammate who kicked the ball.
"It was an accident, I swear!" he said. Kaito slowly blinked in slight annoyance.
"You weren't even near the goal...why the hell did you kick the ball?" he snapped. Some people found it surprising since Kaito was normally friendly and talked in a reasonable tone, whether or not the person had done wrong.
"Err... foot-slip?" he stammered. Syaoran was the next one to glare.
"Foot-slip? You kicked it hard enough to get her unconcious!" he said. "Now, the rest of you, get out of the way! I need to get to the building."
Everyone moved immediately, clearing the steps and Syaoran carried her bridal-style towards the school. Tomoyo and Eriol had a slight amused grin on their faces and Meilin had stood with a frown on her face.
"Oh... this would be... something?" Eriol mused. Tomoyo giggled.
"I do agree. But wouldn't he make things a bit weird?" she said pointing at Kaito who continued to scold the dude.
"Nah, Kaito is reasonable. Like everyone knows."
Infirmary
Sakura stirred in the bed as she brought her hand to her head, opening her eyes.
"Wha...? Where am I?" she said getting up. But she fell back due to her headache.
"Don't move. You got hit with the ball at the game," Syaoran's voice came. She stared around the room and then at him, who then placed a jug of water next to her and a glass cup.
"Huh? Hit with what?"
"The ball," he said, emphasizing each word in slight annoyance.
"Oh."
"You feeling alright?"
"Ehh... yes... at least I think so..." she said, sitting up again.
"Well, stay here until you do or I'll give you a ride back to your place."
"No, I'm okay," she said but she knew her head was still dizzy since her senses were still coming back to focus. He sighed.
"Here, get some water," he said, handing her a filled cup. She took it and began to drink. "It's a mystery how you got hit while you were moving."
"She put the cup down. "Oh, I was just trying to get back to my seat. And what do you mean a mystery?"
"Hmm... nevermind. The guy that hit you was a new player. I'll get him the next time I see him," he grinned.
"It was an accident... things happen." He then raised an eyebrow.
"Since when were you so forgiving?" he asked lsightly amused.
"I'm not arrogant like you, that's why," she said jokingly.
"Oh... then you won't mind if I do this."
"Huh?" She suddenly froze when he was right in front of her face. Not only that, he lips were on hers! But she didn't pull away. In fact, she was actually thinking this was just one of those aftermath effects of accidents. But nonetheless, she already wrapped her arms around his neck to pull him into a deeper kiss. His arm wrapped around her pushing for back onto the bed.
Suddenly a click is heard on the door and they both pull away immediately as it flung open to reveal Kaito. Syaoran rolled his eyes. Damn this guy! He ruined my moment!
"Sakura, are you alright?" he asked walking over to her, not noticing Syaoran was there.
"Uhhh, yes, I'm okay..." she stammered as she felt herself turn red at what just happened.
"Are you sure? I heard you hit the ground pretty hard and you were near the steps... eh, according to witnesses."
"Really, I'm okay. Just a little rest and I'll be back to normal..."
"Oh, alright. Just making sure. The guy who did it is... well, let's just say he's on probation."
"Huh? It was just an accident-- oh nevermind," she said slightly annoyed. "Uh, and thanks for caring."
"Anytime--" he stopped and finally noticed Syaoran there. "Oh, hey Li! Sorry, didn't see you there."
"Uh huh," Syaoran said. "Well, you can leave now... I can take her home."
"Sure," he said as he went over to the door. "And Sakura, remember to get some rest and get that bump checked," he said with and smile and wave of his hand thus closing the door. Syaoran sighed heavily. Sakura slightly giggled.
"What are you laughing at?" he said staring at her.
"Oh nothing... I just thought something absurd just happened or maybe it was just me," she said teasingly.
"Meaning?"
"Oh... I don't know... you were... jealous!" she said and started laughing.
"WHAT! I AM NOT JEALOUS OF THAT JERK!" he roared. It made her laugh even harder.
"Well, you don't have to shout about it," she said slowing down her laughs. "And if you weren't, you wouldn't be," she added sticking out her toungue at him.
right outside of the Infirmary, before the little 'scene'
Meilin slightly sighed. She had seen the door opened slightly and peeked inside to see what the two 'friends' were doing. But the funny thing, she wasn't angry. She just pulled out her phone and pressed a speed dial button. The other line picked up.
"Hello? Aunty? I have a slight surprise for you...," she said with a smile on her face, walking away from the room.
YAY! Sometimes first kisses for SxS are absurd and this is NOT an acception! lol! Seriously though, that wasn't a real cliffhanger. It's just a little something to make you wonder what's going to happen. and Meilin is NOT, I repeat, not evil. :P
and also, I hope you liked the 'early' update. loves and kisses. lol I think I might just have to put my other story on hold becuz of this one. :X
