Chapter Seven:
Fun under the Sun
After Valentine's Day—the special holiday of Cupid—Tomoyo planned a beach party for the gang. She invited everyone—Sakura, Syaoran, Meilin, Eriol—like I said everyone. Most agreed anyway. . .all except for one person. . .yup, you've guessed it. . .Sakura.
"I don't get the point of this whole 'going to the beach' thing." Sakura whined as the three girls were packing clothes for today's beach fun. Meilin just finished packing hers and she went for the kitchen to pack some food to eat.
"The point of these 'beach thing' you're talking about was to have fun." Tomoyo replied, knowingly.
"To have fun?"
Tomoyo grinned as she pinched Sakura's cheek playfully. "Yup, you've guessed it my cute little Sakura—we're going to have fun! Now, pack you're clothes dear and have some fun okay?"
Sakura shove her head away. "I knew that. You don't have to treat me like a kid."
"I have to because sometimes you're acting like a kid like you are now. Stop whining and just hurry or the guys will be here and we're not finished packing yet."
"Yeah, yeah, I'm hurrying."
Tomoyo scanned through her closet and she found her bathing suit. "Wouldn't Eriol-kun drool over me when I'm wearing this?" She said dreamily.
Sakura sighed. "I think he wouldn't just drool over you. . .he would barf."
"Whatever," Tomoyo grabbed Sakura's bathing suit and pushed it right in front of her face. "I think Li-kun wouldn't just drool over you when you're wearing this. . .I think he would fall head over heels for you!"
Sakura blushed crimson. "Yeah, right."
Tomoyo pulled a sly smile. " 'Yeah right' indeed! Look at you; you're blushing like a ripe tomato!"
Sakura's blush reddened further. "I am not."
"Yes, you are." Tomoyo teased.
Meilin poked her head from behind the door. "The guys are here. Better hurry up."
Tomoyo's smile widened. "They're here. Say 'hi' to your Syaoran-kun."
Tomoyo-chan. . .
The blue Ferrari sports car pulled over in front of their apartment. The two boys got out. Syaoran was wearing a green polo shirt—no undershirt, khaki shorts and green sandals. He was also wearing a green baseball cap that was turned backwards. Eriol, on the other hand, was wearing a blue shirt, cargo shorts and a pair of blue sandals. One thing's for sure—both guys were just handsome.
Tomoyo came running out of the apartment as she threw her arms around Eriol. "Oh, I missed you, Eriol-kun!"
Eriol looked at her with a puzzled look. "Uhmm. . .Tomoyo? We just dated yesterday."
"It seemed like an eternity for me!"
Sakura came out of the apartment and saw Syaoran outside, standing and staring at Tomoyo and Eriol with a disgusted look. He turned around and saw Sakura looking at him—he approached her but Sakura turned away and entered the apartment once again. Syaoran followed her inside and saw Sakura sitting on the couch. He sat next to her.
"Hey." Syaoran said simply.
Sakura said nothing. Instead, she looked at him. She approached closer and stared at him—that boyish face she knew for so long—how she missed it.
Syaoran looked at her. "Is there something wrong with my face?"
Sakura shook her head and turned away. "No. Nothing's wrong. You looked absolutely perfect."
"You think so?"
"I know so."
Syaoran smiled and Sakura smiled too. "Has anyone ever told you that your smile was so cute?"
"You're the first one."
Tomoyo entered the apartment, cutting whatever conversation they were having. "So, guys? What are we waiting for? Let's go!"
Just as the gang was about to exit the door, Meilin called out.
"Hey, guys! Wait up!" She exclaimed as she dragged the heavy luggages they just packed.
OOO
Silence wafted inside the car. Syaoran glanced from the road and into Sakura. She was wearing a see through light blue blouse that exposed the pink bikini she was wearing underneath. Aside from the revealing blouse, she was wearing a matching light blue mini skirt that reached half of her thighs and a pair of blue flip-flops. Syaoran blushed upon seeing her revealing outfit and it reddened further as Sakura's voice kept echoing inside his head.
"No. Nothing's wrong. You looked absolutely perfect."
He glanced again and Sakura was looking through the car's window—thinking about something. He wondered what she could be thinking.
Sakura looked through the window with her brows narrowed. Ugh! Tomoyo-chan really pulled the string this time. . .Why? Because she dragged Eriol and Meilin-chan to her car while I'm here—stuck with Syaoran. . .She really has a knack for setting us up and she can pull it without raising suspicion from the others! Well, that I can give her credits!
Sakura glanced at Syaoran who held her gaze. She quickly looked away, blushing. This is so awkward! Tomoyo-chan. . .you're gonna pay for this!
"So, are you excited for the beach hangout?" Syaoran said, starting a conversation—still glued on the road ahead.
Sakura stared at him with Syaoran glancing at her once in a while. "Yeah, I'm thrilled." She said, with a small hint of sarcasm.
Syaoran glanced her way again. "You don't seem so thrilled."
Sakura looked at him again and pulled a smile. "I am—I'm so excited."
OOO
They arrived at the beach, finally, after three hours drive. Both vehicles parked and the gang headed down the beach to have some rest and relaxation under the bright glow of the sun. Tomoyo looped her arm through Eriol's and she dragged Meilin with her free hand—leaving Sakura with no choice but to hangout with Syaoran.
"Uhmm. . .we'll just check us in," Tomoyo said motioning to Eriol and Meilin. "Meanwhile, you two can check the water and swim if you two like."
Before Sakura could react, the three vanished—heading to the customer's service. Sakura sighed and as she glanced at Syaoran's way, she couldn't help but blush from what she was seeing. Syaoran was starting to unbutton his polo shirt revealing his ever so fine built body. Sakura stared in awe mixed with shock at Syaoran's body from his fine toned chest, to his washboard abs, and down to his bellybutton wherein underneath it was a thin trail of brown hair. Sakura glanced away—blushing severely like a ripe tomato.
Syaoran smirked playfully. "You liked it?"
Sakura gazed at him, staring at his awesome body once again—her blush reddening even more. "Like what?"
Syaoran's smirk widened. "My body, I mean."
I don't like your body. . .I love it! Yes, oh, Syaoran-kun. . .Your body was the hottest I've ever seen. . .I wanna brush my lips on your chest, on your chiseled stomach, on your bellybutton! Syaoran-kun. . .you're so. . .so. . .What am I thinking? I-I hate it. . .It stinks. . .really?
Sakura looked away. "You've got to be kidding me."
Now it was her turn, she slipped off her mini skirt revealing her sexy bikini. She unbuttoned her blouse and that left her only wearing her revealing bathing suit. Her body somehow glowed because of the heavy sun. Syaoran stared at her in amazement. Damn, she is so sexy! His eyes traveled from her exposed cleavage, to her smooth belly, and down to her gorgeous legs.
Sakura, this time, was the one who smirked. "You liked it?"
Syaoran blushed crimson uncontrollably. "Like what?"
Sakura's smirk widened even further. "My body, I mean."
Syaoran smiled but his blush still on his face. "Yeah, I loved your body. You're so gorgeous."
Sakura's smirk disappeared as she sighed. "That's not the answer I was hoping to hear."
Syaoran approached her and he surprised her by holding her hand. He gave it a light squeeze as he accompanied her down the shore—the waves lapping just beneath their feet. Girls glared at Sakura but she ignored them, trying to savor her time with Syaoran. She rested her head on his broad shoulders as she watched the world go by. . .
OOO
Darkness fell as nighttime came. The sound of the water coming ashore soothed them in an almost trancelike state. The gang just finished enjoying themselves on the waters—swimming and building make-believe sand castles. Tomoyo set up the table wherein they would play their beach game—"Spin the Bottle". Yep, a daring game—she was been preparing for it even before they stepped foot on the beach resort.
"Hey, guys! Over here! It's time to play our mystery game!" Tomoyo called out and the guys arrived near her.
Sakura raised a brow. "And what would that be?"
Tomoyo cleared her throat. "It's called. . .Spin the Bottle."
"Spin the Bottle?" They gasped in unison.
Tomoyo nodded. "Yup, 'Spin the Bottle'. . .here's the rules. . .I will draw a dare from this bowl," Tomoyo said, handing the bowl full of papers for them to see. "Then I will read it aloud. . .I will spin the bottle to find out who will do the dare."
Sakura crossed her arms. "That was simple enough."
"Yeah, it is. Now, all of you sit and we will start the game." Tomoyo replied.
They obeyed and sat down. All of them seemed thrilled but not Sakura—she knew something smelled fishy. The dare thing was too. . .planned out and too. . . "daring". She knew right then and there that Tomoyo-chan was up to something. . .and she knew she was not going to like it. . .Never. Tomoyo placed the bowl near her and she drew the first 'lucky' dare.
Tomoyo looked at it first then smirked. "Hmm. . .here's a start. . . 'He/She will kiss Sakura-chan's belly down to her bellybutton'."
Sakura gasped. "WHAT? Whose crazy idea is this?"
Tomoyo's smirk widened. "Me."
Before Sakura could pounce on Tomoyo, Meilin stopped her. "C'mon, Sakura-chan—it's just a little game. What could possibly go wrong right?"
Sakura fell silent as she sat down.
Syaoran agreed. "Meilin's right."
Sakura crossed her arms. "Alright, alright, but I'm not going to like it—whoever would be the one."
Tomoyo pulled out the bottle. "Then let's proceed." She placed the bottle on the center of the table and spun it around. The bottle rounded and rounded until it slowed down carefully. It pointed at Meilin, at Eriol, and it finally landed in front of. . .Syaoran. The gang gasped but finally cheered.
Tomoyo smiled devilishly. "Well, what do you know. . .It landed on Syaoran. . .What a coincidence."
Meilin stared at them dreamily. "It must be fate."
Eriol nudged Syaoran's arm. "Go ahead, man. Do the dare—it'll be fun."
Sakura just stared in shock at Syaoran who in return just held her shocked gaze. Both of them were just stunned that it felt they were frozen in time. Tomoyo motioned for Syaoran to do the dare or else there would be a much worst punishment that she refused to tell.
Syaoran sighed. "Okay, okay, I'll do it."
Everyone cheered happily at the reply. Syaoran stood up and approached Sakura who just stared in shock. Everything seemed blurred for her but then she adjusted her gaze. She saw Syaoran lowering his head down at her stomach level. He moved closer—his face centimeters apart from her belly. Suddenly, she felt his lips brush on her stomach as it traveled down her bellybutton. His lips were hot against her skin and it felt like fire sparking a flame. Sakura perspired intensely as Syaoran's lips traveled on her bellybutton—his tongue licking it slowly and afterwards he pulled away and went back to his seat.
Sakura still couldn't believe all this was happening, her sensuality arousing from the feeling of his lips onto her skin. She took a deep breath as she looked at Syaoran who was blushing crimson. Sakura smiled and her ears adjusted to the game.
Tomoyo grinned. "Well, that was promising. . .Now onto the next dare," Tomoyo drew a piece of paper from the bowl and she read it slowly, feeling a smirk forming on her lips. "Another enticing dare. . . 'He/She will kiss Syaoran's chest down to his stomach and into his bellybutton."
Everyone's eyes turned their attention to Sakura who glanced away. Syaoran gulped as Tomoyo spun the bottle again. It spun wildly this time and it landed on no direction in particular. Tomoyo picked it again and spun it round and round. It carefully slowed down as it pointed at Tomoyo, at Meilin and it finally landed in front of. . .Sakura. Darn, of all the people. . .It just have to be me. Syaoran met Sakura's gaze and his eyes as if saying: Are you sure about this?
Sakura nodded and everyone again cheered. She approached Syaoran as she stood up and Syaoran stood up too. Sakura carefully moved closer to meet Syaoran's fine built chest. Syaoran looked at her and he suddenly felt her lips brushing against his skin. It felt electric as it sent lightning bolts up and down his spine. Her lips traveled down his chiseled stomach and it felt intoxicating for Syaoran. Both of them could hear the gang cheering as Sakura's lips neared his bellybutton. Syaoran felt her lips kissing his bellybutton—giving it a small suck and a little lick. He gave out a light moan before Sakura pulled away. Sakura was still in a daze when she stopped and for some unexplained reason, she ran away to their room. Sakura ran as Syaoran followed her.
"Sakura! Wait!" He called after her as he ran behind her.
Meilin was about to get up to follow her as well when Tomoyo grabbed her arm and shook her head. "It's better for him to follow her."
Meilin sat down. "Maybe you're right."
Sakura entered their cabin—'their' because Syaoran and her shared the same room (another one of Tomoyo's brilliant ideas)—wherein she sat at the edge of the bed. Syaoran entered as well and sat next to her as Sakura rested her head on his broad shoulder.
"I'm sorry."
"For what?"
"For making you kiss my body."
Sakura said nothing. Instead, she looped her arm through Syaoran's washboard abs as she fell completely silent. They stayed like that for a long moment before Sakura's emerald green pools shut down—drifting farther into dreamland. . .
OOO
Syaoran entered the bathroom as he slipped of his khaki shorts and underwear. He opened the shower and let the lukewarm water ran through his body. Meanwhile, Sakura woke up—noticing she's laid down the bed. She rubbed her drowsy eyes as she planned to take a bath in the bathroom. Sakura opened the bathroom door and was shocked by what she saw—Syaoran completely naked, showering inside. Syaoran looked by the door upon hearing the creaking of the door and was completely terrified.
"AAAAHHHH!" They screamed in unison.
Syaoran covered his arousal with his hands as Sakura immediately closed her eyes.
Syaoran looked at her with a shocked, surprised look—a blush creeping on his face. "What are you doing here?"
Sakura blushed like a red apple, still covering her eyes. "I promise I didn't see anything out of the ordinary!"
Syaoran sighed. "Now, would you please leave?"
Sakura nodded automatically. "Right, right, I'll leave! I'll leave!"
She closed the bathroom door still blushing and still wearing surprised look on her face. I just can't believe I just did that? I saw his. . .his. . .Ugh! You are so clueless, Sakura! She thought, shaking her head. Sakura sat at the edge of the bed as she couldn't help but think about his gorgeous figure that she saw. . .
OOO
Syaoran went out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist. Sakura blushed again but this time she stopped it. She entered the bathroom quietly after Syaoran stepped aside. Sakura removed her clothes and let the warm water splash through her body. After her shower, she put on a towel around her fragile body and stepped outside. There stood Syaoran—only wearing his green boxers. Confused, Sakura asked him.
"Are you gonna sleep just wearing that?" She asked pointing at his boxers.
Syaoran looked down at his only clothing. "What's wrong with this?"
Sakura furrowed her brow. "You're not planning of harassing me, are you?"
Syaoran laughed. "Why on earth am I gonna do that?"
Sakura blushed—embarrassed. "I was just asking." She mumbled.
Syaoran just stared at her damp look as he couldn't help but think what was underneath that thin towel of hers. Syaoran, what are you thinking? Snap that dirty image out of your head! He thought, shaking his head.
Sakura raised a brow. "So, aren't you going to turn around so I can dress. . .or you want to watch me do it?"
Syaoran blushed and turned around. "Sorry."
Sakura grabbed her pajamas and slipped it on after taking off her towel. She looked around and saw Syaoran still turned around. Syaoran's a great guy. . .He would not even dare touch me. She thought, smiling.
"I'm finished." She announced.
Syaoran turned to face her. "It's about time."
Syaoran slipped under the covers as he prepared on going to bed—this day really worn him out. Sakura still was a little embarrassed on sleeping with him but decided that she had no choice. After all, what could possibly go wrong right? And another thing was that the floor was really hard for anyone to sleep on. She carefully slipped in bed beside him and was about to talk to him when she realized he was already asleep.
Syaoran looked so cute when asleep. . .He looked like an innocent boy. . .Yeah, right—innocent! He was anything but innocent! And still when asleep. . .he looks innocent. . .
Sakura smiled as she cuddled near him. She brought a hand into his unruly brown hair. Sakura somehow made it messier as she stroked it gently. She looked at him. That same boyish face she fell in love years ago—if his body wasn't so fine built, she would probably assume that he was still the boy who played pranks on her all day. Sakura's smile widened as she rested her head on his bare chest—drifting asleep, never as peaceful as before.
Syaoran slowly woke up upon realizing that someone slept on his chest. He adjusted his sight and saw those elegant honey golden locks. He smiled as he realized it was Sakura. Syaoran gently stroked her hair as he whispered something to her ear.
"Sleep tight. . .my Sakura."
Syaoran closed his amber pools as slumber took over him. And for the first time he met Sakura after first grade, he finally admitted that he felt something for her. . .a feeling he never expected. . .and that feeling has a name. . .it's called: love. . .
OOO
