.-.-.-.- Chapter 43: Syaoran and Shoaling

"I'll see you soon Sakura,"

Syaoran never, ever left his wife's side. He took a few days off of work, letting his father do the work for him. Actually, Xenon wanted to do the work for Syaoran.

Nobody knew of Kiyoumi and Hitomi's deception and Sakura, Touya, Eriol, Tomoyo and Syaoran decided to keep it a secret from everybody else. Syaoran changed the main door buzzer number without anybody knowing (except the ones who knew of Kiyoumi and Hitomi) and the phone numbers to the house.

"Are you to going to tell Shoaling?" Sakura asked as she sat in her bedroom with her husband and her kids.

Syaoran sighed and sat on the bed. "I don't know… he got deceived by her once."

Sakura groaned. "Yam would also be devastated if he found out his girlfriend was a backstabbing bitch."

"You know, I really do hate this." Syaoran said.

"It would all have been prevented if you hadn't married me." Sakura said, casually… in fact too casually. She had a bottle against Taiyou's lips when Syaoran shook her shoulders.

"What?" He growled.

"Uh…?"

"What did you say? All could have been prevented if I hadn't married you? You really are that dense Sakura. I ripped up the contract in front of you, Eriol and Tomoyo. We're married, not a contract marriage but a real marriage where we stay together for the rest of our lives dammit!" he growled.

Sakura sighed. "I know… but all this happened because I dated Hiro…"

"Come to think of it, why did you date Hiro?" Syaoran asked, genuinely curious.

"It was… a blind date." Sakura confessed.

Syaoran's eyes widened. "Blind date?"

Sakura nodded.

.- Sakura flash back -.

"Sakura, I've found the perfect date for you!" Tomoyo told her cousin. Halloween dance was coming soon and Sakura needed a date for the dance.

"Who is it?"

"Hiro Su, I did some talking around and I found out that this guy has a killer rep!" Tomoyo said.

Sakura sighed. "Wouldn't hurt to try. Just make sure Touya's busy when he comes over."

Tomoyo grinned. "Sure thing…"

.- end -.

"And that's when things started going really fast." Sakura said turning to her husband. "He said he really loved me and that he wanted to be with me for the rest of our lives when we were 15. He gave me a promise ring but told everybody it was an engagement ring."

"That's stupid." Syaoran murmured.

Sakura nodded. "Yea I know, but what can I do? I was infatuated."

"Infatuated?" Syaoran raised a brow.

"Oh please, having the pleasure of being married to you, having your children and falling in love with you really tells a girl what's infatuation and true love."

Syaoran pretend to blush. "So happy you think you love me."

"Think?"

"Then what?"

"Babe, I know I love you." She grinned as Syaoran cradled a sleeping Taihen in his arms.

"Yes I love you." She whispered.

"I love you too. So then what?"

"Then? Then you know the rest. I was giving Yuki pointers on how to propose to Nakuru when Hiro thought he was a 'boyfriend'. Though, Hiro's never seen Yuki or known he was my cousin, but he charged at Yuki. He missed and slammed me and there I was, blind."

Syaoran rubbed her back.

"It's ok."

Sakura smiled as the tears formed in her eyes. "I guess it is… I have all of you now,"

"You do, now let's put the twins to bed and see what the others are doing." Syaoran smiled as he and Sakura got up with their kids in their hands.

As soon as they put the twins to bed Syaoran pulled Sakura into a tender sweet kiss. Sakura moaned as she wrapped her hands around his shoulder and instantly replied to his beautiful kiss.

A few seconds later he pulled back and lightly brushed his lips over hers again before walking out with Sakura in his arms.

"Do we tell Shoaling?" Sakura asked.

"I'll tell him, you tell Rika who'll tell Yam about Kiyoumi." Syaoran mumbled to her.

Sakura nodded as they walked downstairs to find Hitomi sitting in Shoaling's lap, Touya sitting beside Fuutie, Eriol and Tomoyo together and the other Li sisters scattered about.

Sakura sent a glance towards her brother, cousin and Eriol. They nodded as Sakura took a seat beside Touya and Syaoran beside Shoaling.

"So, what do we do now?" Sakura asked.

"How did Hiro get our number anyways?" Syaoran said playing dumb.

"Phonebook?" Fuutie asked. She too knew about Hiro calling, but nobody except Syaoran, Sakura, Eriol, Tomoyo and Touya knew about Hitomi and Kiyoumi.

"I don't think that our number is listed in the phonebook." Sakura grinned.

"Hey, Syaoran could have registered." Sheifa giggled.

"Like heck I'd do something stupid like that." Syaoran said.

"You've been known to do many stupid things." Sakura teased.

"Name one,"

"Like freak the hell outta me in England when you said Eriol got new drapes."

Eriol laughed out loud. "Yea, Sakura told me about that."

"What? It totally clashed."

"That was two years ago," Tomoyo giggled.

"And I still haven't forgiven Syaoran for that. I thought that Eriol had murdered some ex girlfriend and her corpse was sitting on his armchair."

Eriol winced. "Do you really think so lowly of me Sakura?"

"Even lower then you expect Hiiragizawa." Syaoran smirked.

"Such love from a cousin," Eriol grinned.

"I swear, those two will never grow up." Sakura shook her head.

"I still remember Syaoran and Eriol working together to prank us all." Fanran smirked at her brother and cousin.

"And Fuutie actually fell for one of them." Eriol smirked.

"Which one?" Fuutie asked, not remembering.

"We went Takashi moment and lied up on Fuutie." Syaoran grinned. "We told her that she was a Siamese twin to Feimiel. Feimiel played along and said that indeed she was."

Eriol laughed. Feimiel giggled. "I remember. I have a scar on my left rib and I showed it to Fuutie telling her that's where we got cut."

Sakura and Tomoyo cracked up laughing. "And Fuutie actually believed you?"

Fuutie blushed. "They were acting so… it was too realistic."

That made everybody laugh even more.

Suddenly the baby monitor buzzed and they heard Taihen shrieking. Sakura winced. "Oh boy," She was about to get up when Syaoran gestured her to sit down.

"I'll go, Shoaling my man, time to play daddy again." Syaoran grinned.

"Jesus Christ Syaoran, give me a damn break!" Shoaling laughed as he got up and followed his twin upstairs. Tomoyo, Eriol, Touya and Sakura all exchanged glances.

Syaoran led Shoaling all the way up to the nursery. Syaoran picked up Taihen and Shoaling cradled Taiyou who was sniffling.

"Dada," Taihen murmured as he snuggled up against Syaoran's chest. He smiled as he kissed his son's forehead.

"I would… kill myself if anything happened to them or Sakura." Syaoran murmured as he sat down on a rocking chair that was positioned beside a loveseat. Shoaling sat done on the loveseat as Taiyou fidgeted in his arms.

"What do you mean? Hiro won't be able to get in, we've tightened security."

Syaoran breathed deeply. 'It's no or never Syaoran… either tell your brother and risk loosing a relationship with him or get your wife and kids killed…'

Syaoran went with option number one. He just met Shoaling two years ago but he's known Sakura and everybody else longer… yea the Twin brother feeling was there, but putting his wife and kids at risk was the last thing Syaoran wanted to do.

"Tightening security doesn't matter Shoaling," Syaoran murmured.

"What do you mean?"

"We… there's… well you see… ah… Sa-Sakura overheard…"

Shoaling stared at his brother. "Tell me Syaoran,"

"Touya, Sakura, Eriol and Tomoyo heard Hitomi and Kiyoumi talking,"

Shoaling dreaded what came next…

"They're still working for Hiro."

"…" Shoaling was quiet. He had nothing to say. His twin brother, (yes younger by a few minutes) was just telling him his girlfriend, the woman he dated, broke up with and then dated again was still with the Royalty's arch nemesis?

"You-you're sure about this ne?" Shoaling said in a quiet voice.

Syaoran nodded as he put his son back into his crib. "Positive, Sakura made me change all the numbers and our buzzer number."

Shoaling was in no position to say anything. His brother and sister-in-law was telling him his girlfriend was backstabbing them all. He knew Hitomi would deny all this, but how can he believe her? She did it once before… how can he trust her to not do it again?

Where did his loyalties lie? Was it with Syaoran and Sakura… or with Hitomi?

Shoaling groaned as Syaoran took Taiyou from him and kissed her forehead. "Sleep tight my angel." He said softly before putting his daughter into her crib. He then turned to Shoaling who was standing.

"I-I don't know what-what to d-do Syaoran," He said his voice shaking.

"But… can we just- give – give Hitomi and Kiyoumi anoth-"

"No, I am not about to put my family in danger just because you don't know where your priorities lay Shoaling. Either you believe me or believe Hitomi, I don't care what you do, but if you believe Hitomi, you need to get out of this house and get out fast." Syaoran said before starting for the door. However Shoaling grabbed his hand.

"Syaoran… can we just… pretend we don't know… about Hitomi?" Shoaling said, his face not as distressed as it was seconds ago.

"What do you mean?"

"Don't tell the others, but I did have my doubts at the beginning. Kiyoumi and Hitomi came to our side a bit too quick. I knew something was going to happen, but this is just low."

Syaoran raised a brow, 'So Shoaling was expecting this all along eh?'

"So what are you saying bro?" Syaoran said smirking.

Shoaling matched his smirk. "I still love her, but let's pretend we don't know of this deception. We'll be ready for him when he comes, but we won't give Hitomi or Kiyoumi any more news about us."

"You didn't react the way I was expecting,"

"Yea well, this was expected. You'd be a fool if you didn't see that they were up to something."

"Are you calling all 26 or what… of us fools?"

"Yes?" Shoaling said.

"You bastard." Syaoran grinned as he and his brother walked downstairs.

'Deception eh Hitomi?' Shoaling thought as he watched his 'girlfriend' laugh at the jokes Touya was saying… he was surprised how cool everybody was at the moment.

'You'll regret going against me Hitomi, I am, after all, a Li.'

I found Shoaling's last thoughts… sneaky.

'You'll regret going against me Hitomi, I am after all, a Li.'

Damn Shoaling, what are you up to? Anyways, stay tuned!

Lub, Sakura
