Crazy First Love

Chapter 12 -

Sakura's house, Saturday morning

Sakura opened her eyes and slowly rose from the bed holding her head.

"Ugh, why do I feel like I have a hangover...," she murmured to herself, taking a closer look at her surroundings.

It was her room. Pink and white as ever. Oh yeah, yesterday... oh God, I thought it was just a dream. I kissed Syaoran? Her eyes immediately widened in self-realization from what had happened the previous day at school.

She sighed, "Life can't get more weird than MINE...," she groaned, rising from her bed and going into the bathroom.

Downstairs

Fujitaka was in the kitchen, cooking breakfast until the doorbell had rung.

"Hm? Who could it be, so early...," he walked over to the door, opening it to reveal a certain young man.

"Good morning Mr. Kinomoto!" Syaoran said delightedly with a bright smile.

"Ah, good morning Syaoran. You seem to be in a good mood. Please, come in," the man greeted.

"Well, I thought I'd come to check on how Sakura was doing after yesterday. Doesn't hurt to double check, right?" he asked as he came into the house. Fujitaka nodded.

"You can go upstairs to call her down for breakfast. It's almost ready," he said. Syaoran nodded.

So he went up the stairs uncertain of which room was Sakura's. It had been quite awhile since he's been INSIDE of her house when her brother was around. He's at college so he isn't around as often now.

He stopped at the door right around from the stairs and put his hand on the knob, turning it slowly as to not disturb her sleep abruptedly. He peered around to door to see if she was still asleep. Wrong move. She was there, in front of her mirror, wrapped in only a towel and she was still slightly covered with water.

She then noticed a slight breeze in the room and turned her head to see him staring with his jaw down.

"OH MY GOD, GET THE HELL OUT OF MY ROOM!" she screamed loud enough that probably even China could hear her, as she covered herself.

"I'm sorry! It was an accident, I swear on my future grave!" he said trying to cover his red face and slammed the door shut behind him. Holy crap. I am SO dead when she gets out of there. He immediately sprinted down the stairs and into the kitchen.

"Hm? Syaoran, why is your face red?" he said as if not hearing Sakura's scream from before.

"Uhhh, er, nothing! So, need help setting the table?" he said nervously. The man smiled and nodded.

Suddenly, they hear stomping coming from the stairs and Sakura emerged into the kitchen, red and fuming.

"YOU PERVERT! DON'T YOU KNOW HOW TO KNOCK!" she roared, loud enough to have some of the utensils on the table to move.

"I said it was an accident! I thought you were still sleeping!" he said, trying to get some cover behind her father unnoticed.

"First of all, you SHOULD and MUST knock before entering a GIRL'S ROOM! You are SO lucky Touya's not here or he would kick the living crap out of you!

He sighed in defeat. "Alright, you want to call him over here to do it then? Geez," he said sitting down on the table.

"Now, now Sakura... he's a guest right now, so don't be harsh. And no you won't call your brother over. Remember, he has exams coming," Fujitaka said handing over food onto the table to Syaoran.

"Hmph!" she pouted as she sat down to her food.

So they ate quietly but Sakura just had to throw him a few glares. When they finished, Fujitaka took the dishes and the two teens walked and sat on opposite sides of the couches in the living room.

"Why are you here anyway?" she asked, slightly tired but agitated. Syaoran slumped back into the cushions.

"I just wanted to check on you. But I got scolded instead," he sighed. She also sighed.

"Alright fine. I forgive you BUT if you do that again..."

"Okay, okay. So, what are we going to do today? It's the weekend..." his voice slowly turned into nothing. Oh god, did I just say 'we'?

"We?" she said slightly surprised.

"Well, I'm already here... so...," he said shifting slightly in his seat. "Unless you want to call the others over too."

"Sure..."she said but then stopped for a moment. "But what about Meilin?"

"Huh? Oh, she's fine by herself. It's not like I asked to marry her anyway and she said she had some stuff to do before I came here," he grunted. Sakura sighed in slight relief. "What?"

"Oh, nothing," she said rolling her eyes in innocence. "Actually, how about we just go out alone?"

Syaoran raised an eyebrow. Are my ears playing tricks on me or did I just hear that from her? "Huh?"

"What, you don't want to?" she pouted.

Aww... cute. Syaoran then shook his head. "Err, not what I meant. Sure, but where to?"

"Mmm... let's go to the park for some ice cream!" she said, jumping up from her seat. He couldn't help but to laugh a little.

"You're not 5 anymore, you know."

"Doesn't matter, I can still like ice cream when I'm 90 too, so nyaah!" she said sticking out her tongue at him.

"Okay, let's go," he said getting up. "Hope you don't mind, Mr Kinomoto."

"Of course not! And please, call me Fujitaka. You make me sound old!" he said with a smile.

"Heh, okay...uh, Fujitaka-san."

"C'mon! Let's go!" Sakura whined.

"Okay, I'm coming!" he shouted as he went to the door. "I'll have her back by afternoon, if not, earlier!"

"It's alright, just have fun!" Fujitaka said as they shut the door. "Ah... to be young again..."

Penguin Park

They were walking together on the road. Kids were having fun all around them and the weather was nice. Sakura was a bit behind Syaoran. It just felt a bit awkward to actually side by side to hime alone. But she was the one who asked anyway. She took several glances at him hoping he didn't notice since his eyes were roaming around too. Several others as their opposite genders were staring and then looking away at them.

"Hey, so you want some ice cream now or what?" he said suddenly, breaking her gaze.

"Huh? Oh, sure," she said as they approached. "I'll have strawberry."

He walked up to the guy in the ice cream booth. "Excuse me, I'll have a chocolate and strawberry ice cream cone."

"Sure, one moment please," the guy said.

After several moment Syaoran handed gave her the cone she wanted.

"Thanks," she said as she took it. They both then sat on the bench and began 'eating' their ice cream. It was silent and they were enjoying the outside weather together. She slightly sighed after finishing her cone and he looked at her.

"What's up?"

"Mmm... nothing really... just thinking..."

He grinned. "About?"

"I don't know. It's just one of those random thoughts that pop up out of nowhere for no reason," she shrugged.

"Oh, okay..." he sighed uncertainly. There was a silence again. It last until Syaoran's phone rang startling the both of them. He took it out of his pocket muttering under his breath. "Hello?" Sakura stared at him for a moment.

"What? I'm at the park with a friend..."

"No, I'm not busy later."

"Huh? Sakura? What about her?" The girl perked up her ears in slight interest.

"SHE WHAT?" She winced and stared in bewilderment.

"Okay...," he said slowly calming down. "What time?"

"...now? You said--"

"Oh alright fine. I'll be there in a few." And he snapped his phone shut. Sakura was sure he was about to throw the phone at someone but of course, he didn't.

"What's wrong?" she asked, slightly cautious.

"Uhhh, Sakura, you're not busy for the day right?" he asked uneasily.

"No, I don't think so. Why?"

"I need you to come over to my house... I had an UNexpected visitor...unfortunately..." he muttered.

She stared confused. "Was it Meilin?"

"Well, yeah but she called me to tell you to come over."

"Oh... well, I don't see why not... but who's the visitor?"

He then took her hand which surprised her for a second. "Don't worry. It's no one bad... but you'll see once we get there. Alright?"

She nodded and they both got up and walked down the road, their hands together and fingers intertwined. She smiled to herself.
