Hey everyone, I'm back with another chapter of Hero and Heroine.
After reading your very appreciated reviews I learned that this isn't really an R rated fic.
So hopefully in this chapter the story will live up to it's rating. I can't guarantee anything since I make up the story as I type. I'm going to try my best but if I can't then I might just change the rating.
Thanks!
Hero and Heroine:
Chapter Seven
'Where is that girl? I've been waiting for half an hour and still no sign of her.'
Then Syaoran sat down once again on an old dusty stool inside of the warehouse where he was supposed to meet Cherry Blossom. Then he heard the cracking of the old front door.
Sakura walked in closing the door behind her and looking back to make sure no one was there.
"It's about time you showed up."
Sakura jumped at the sound of the harsh cold masculine voice.
"I-I I'm sorry, I-I."
Syaoran cut her off. "Y-You were too stupid to find your way here? Or did it take longer to dress yourself today?"
Rage started to build up within her.
Syaoran can see the frustration in cherry blossom's body as she walked towards him. He smirked at how easily she could be angered. But the closer she got the more his heart beat faster.
"What?"
Syaoran snapped out of his thoughts.
"Huh?"
"What's with the starring?"
'Was I starring? My heart is beating faster but why? She's just a little girl. Nothing else.'
"Hello? You're doing the weird look thing again."
Syaoran ignored her and sat down on an old crate.
"What do you know about this Darco fellow?"
Sakura crossed her arms and looked up at the ceiling. "All I know is that he's some monster that is very strong."
"Great, now tell me something I don't know."
"Alright." She started pacing back and forward. "How about we…"
She stopped talking.
"Now what?" Syaoran was getting more and more impatient with her.
"Did you hear someone outside?"
Syaoran shook his head. "Not a soul."
Sakura went outside to find no one there.
"I guess you scared them away."
She shut the door and went back in. "Shut up wolf, if anyone could scare them it would be you."
Then Syaoran sat back down on the crate. "Well none of us can scare them if they're not real."
Sakura walked over to him with a suspicious look. "What do you mean?"
He looked up at cherry. "I mean that you can't scare a ghost."
Sakura started to get scared. "G-ghost, there's a ghost here and you made me meet you here?"
Then she started walking around listening for something when she heard a creak in the floor.
"Help!!!" She yelled as she flew into wolf's arms.
He looked down at the quivering body wrapped around his.
Then he started laughing. "You can handle monsters but not harmless ghost?"
She looked up at him. "It is not fun to make fun of another person's fears Mr. Wolf."
He kept on laughing. "Yeah, but you got scared of yourself."
"I did not."
"Yes you did. I'll even make you a little bet. If I prove you wrong then I'll do what ever you say for a week. But if I'm right then you have to stop bothering me for a week. Deal?"
"Deal. But I highly doubt you're gonna win."
Syaoran tried to get up but cherry was holding him down.
"Hey, it's obvious you have a thing for me but I need you to let go of me for a second."
Sakura blushed and let go. "Jerk."
Syaoran got up and walked over to where cherry was standing when she heard the sound.
He pointed to the floor. "Is this where you were?"
"Yeah, yeah what's your point?"
"Just listen." He stepped exactly where she was standing and the creaking sound was heard again.
Sakura walked over to him. "Ok, you were right I am stupid, so what?"
Syaoran crossed his arms and smirked at her. "So you have to stay away from me for a week starting now."
Then he left leaving Cherry Blossom behind feeling really stupid.
The next morning…
Sakura came out of her door stretching feeling refresh forgetting about the events that happened the night before.
"Someone's in a good mood."
She grabbed a bowl, milk, cereal, and a spoon. "Yup, that's the best I've slept in a long time."
Syaoran was watching her as she poured her milk and cereal in the bowl and couldn't help to notice her beauty. The sun was beaming off of her hair making her look like an angel. Everything she did had a gentle touch to it. He watched her every move as if she wasn't real.
'She's so beautiful. She's different from other girls. I already know she doesn't like me but I can still dream. What's wrong with me? I'm acting all girl crazy like Eriol. First it was Cheery Blossom and now Sakura.'
Sakura saw Syaoran starring at her.
"Is there something wrong?"
"No." His eyes were watching every detail in her face.
Then she started wiping her face.
"What are you doing?"
Sakura got up and looked at her reflection in the mirror.
"You were starring so I figured there was something on my face. Is it gone?"
Syaoran got up and went into the living room avoiding her question while turning on the television.
After Sakura changed into a pair of jeans and a pink tank top she went into the living room to join Syaoran.
She saw that he was watching some sappy chic flick and came up with a great idea.
"How about we have a movie night?"
"What are you talking about?" Syaoran was confused. All he was thinking about was the movie.
"A movie night so we can get to know each other better."
"No."
Sakura sat down next to him. "Why not?"
Syaoran had his eyes still glued to the TV. "Because you would rent an awful movie that's three hours long. I'm not putting myself through that."
"Fine you can pick the movie and no matter what it is I promise I'll watch."
Syaoran was sitting still trying to ignore her.
Then she started tugging at his arm. "Please, please, pleaseeeeeee. Come on."
"Alright, alright, I'll watch a movie with you. Are you happy now?"
"Yes." Then she got up and headed to the door. "I'm going to pick up some supplies for tonight after I go shopping with Tomoyo. Remember to pick up the movie."
"Yeah, sure, you're barely here a week and you're already nagging me."
Then she left the apartment and Syaoran was glad to finally be able to finish his movie.
While she was exiting the apartment building she heard someone yelling at her.
"Kinomoto. Kinomoto wait a second."
She turned back and saw Donald running towards her. When he reached her he was out of breath.
"Hello, how are you I haven't seen you in a couple of days." Her voice was cheerful and kind.
"I was just wondering where you were going."
"I'm going to the mall with a friend why?"
He looked down at the floor and scratched his neck. "Oh, I was gonna ask you if you wanted to do something today but you seem busy."
Sakura stopped to think for a second. "Well if you want you can come with me to the mall."
Then he shook his head. "No, it's alright I don't want to intrude."
She grabbed his arm and started pulling him out to her car. "Don't worry, I'll love it for you to join me."
Then they both got in her car and drove to Tomoyo's house to pick her up.
Tomoyo was looking outside her window when a sporty yellow car pulled up in front of her mansion. She grabbed her purse and ran outside.
Sakura had already gotten out of the car. Donald was sitting in the car when he saw a beautiful girl running out of the mansion with her arms open wide. She ran right into Sakura and held her in what looked like a tight hug. When they were approaching the car he turned his head away pretending her wasn't watching them.
Tomoyo opened the back door and got in while Sakura was getting prepared to drive off again. Tomoyo leaned towards the front seat and stuck her hand out towards Donald.
"Hi I'm Tomoyo, may I ask who you are?"
He looked at her and saw her hair gently flowing down with her beautiful eyes starring into his.
"I'm Donald, nice to meet you." He shook her hand then looked back at the road ahead.
Tomoyo continued talking. "So are you Sakura's new boyfriend?"
"Tomoyo, what kind of question is that?" Sakura was blushing a light red but kept her eyes glued to the road.
Tomoyo sat back in her seat. "It was just a question you didn't have to be so embarrassed."
Then her face lit up when an idea came to her. "Unless you like him. Do you?"
"TOMOYO!" She was even more embarrassed than she was a second ago.
Tomoyo put her hands up and had a clueless look on her face. "What did I say something wrong."
Sakura took a deep breath and turn on the radio. Tomoyo had a fun time teasing her friend.
Finally they arrived at the mall. "We're here!" Everyone got out of the car and headed for the entrance. When they got in the mall they saw all the busy people talking and shopping.
Then a store caught Tomoyo's eye. "Oh, my God! We have to go in there." Before anyone could say anything Tomoyo grabbed Sakura's hand and started to drag her to the store. Donald walked slowly behind them laughing at their behavior.
Meanwhile Syaoran and Eriol were at the video store picking out movies for tonight. Eriol was looking at some chick flick movies when Syaoran walked up to him.
"How can you watch that?"
He stopped looking at the videos and looked up at Syaoran. "They're not that bad. Plus I score points with Tomoyo for watching all this sappy stuff."
Syaoran rolled his eyes. "Does everything you do have to involve Tomoyo?"
Eriol put a smile on his face. "Of course. Just like everything you do should involve Sakura."
Syaoran crossed his arms. "And what is that supposed to mean?"
Eriol went back to looking at the video cases. "It means that if you tried a little harder you and Sakura could be just like me and Tomoyo."
"Who would want that?"
Eriol ignored his comment. "I'm ready to leave. Have you already picked out a movie for tonight?"
"Yeah, do you mind taking care of this, there is something I gotta do right now?"
"Sure."
Syaoran handed him the movie and exited the store in a hurry. Eriol didn't pay attention to what it was that made him leave. He looked down at the tape turning it on the side to read the title.
"Undisputed?"
He put placed the tape on a shelf and went to get a different movie not caring what Syaoran would say about it.
Meanwhile Syaoran was looking franticly for something or should I say someone.
'Where could she have gone to? I know I saw her here a second ago.'
He looked around the street and spotted someone with a bright red coat.
'That's got to be her.'
He walked up behind the young lady with a smile on his face.
"Excuse me miss but I lost me phone number can I have yours?"
The girl immediately turned around shinning bright red orbs into his amber eyes.
"Syaoran, I can't believe it's you!"
Hey sorry about the long update. I tried to make this chapter long. I'll try to update sooner. RR!
