Chapter 4: Under the Cherryblossom Trees

"That movie is really great!" Sakura exclaimed as soon as they exited the cinema.

"But I really hate the disgusting demons… eew…" Tomoyo remarked, throwing in the empty popcorn bag into th trash can.

"What do you wanna do next?" Eriol asked.

Tomoyo and Sakura looked at it each other and as if by telepathy, they smiled evilly and looked at their companions. "Shopping…" they said in unison.

"Oh no…" Eriol and Syaoran moaned the words out as they followed Tomoyo and Sakura further inside the mall.

After a few… okay… many hours of shopping and walking their feet to death, th group is still… shopping. Yup, endless shopping.

"PLEASE let us take a rest and SIT!" Syaoran exclaimed as he almost slumped down the floor because of the heavy shopping bags of shoes and blouses that Tomoyo had bought. "I knew we should've brought one of those darn bodyguards with us…" he muttered in dismay.

"My Tomoyo, you really are into shopping," Sakura remarked as she sweat drops, eyeing and glacing Syaoran a look of pity. She didn't bought everything her eyes had laid on, it was her very good hobby.

Eriol grinned at Syaoran to tease him. Although they have been together for only a few hours, they have been real close, like childhood friends even.

Syaoran put on a pleading face, tears flowing like rivers animé style.

"Give me some of those bags," Eriol gave in to his plea with a sigh and lots of his chuckles.

"Thank you…" Syaoran replied with a sigh.

"How about we eat?" Tomoyo suggested as she stops in front of a local Japanese restaurant.

"Why not?" Sakura replied as she signaled the two boys to follow them inside. She was a bit surprised that Tomoyo wanted to eat in a local Japanese restaurant instead of the facy diners she was obviously accostumed to eating at.

"Are you sure you want to eat here Tomoyo?" Syaoran asked as he placed down the heavy bags under the table.

"Of course!" Tomoyo answered cheerily. "It's been a long time since I've eaten my hometown's dilicacies… I miss them," she explained to her loving fiancée. "And besides, I wanted you to taste them," she added as she kiss Syaoran's cheeks with her hands.

Sakura looked down at the sweet moment. 'I'm hating myself for this…' she thought to herself.

Eriol looked at Sakura. He sensed something wrong but decided to put it in a teasing way. "Envious?" he whispered to her ear.

Sakura blushed at the warmth of Eriol's breath on her ear.

"No!" she snapped back, almost jumping out of her seat, her face as red as a tomato.

Tomoyo, Eriol and Syaoran laughed at the weird reflex.

Sakura bowed to hide her warm and red cheeks.

"So? What do we eat here?" Syaoran changed the subject.

"I'll order," Sakura replied, still a hint of pink on her cheeks, thankful that Syaoran had changed the subject. "It wouldn't be good if you'll attract attention by the counter," she added as she pulls Eriol out of his seat.

Tomoyo and Syaoran didn't get to say anything and they chuckled at how fast Sakura had taken the responsibility just to avoid the pressure.

"So…" Tomoyo started. "I find it awkward not knowing what to say to you…" she said with a giggle.

"Oh… you're the one who's feeling awkward?" Syaoran teased her. Tomoyo was the one who always opens the conversation and it was weird that she didn't know what to say to him now.

"I don't know… maybe because I never been with you this long… we never had a whole day rest before…" she explained with excessive probability.

"Maybe…" Syaoran replied.

"Sorry we took so long…" Sakura's voice interrupted them as she placed down a tray full of Japanese food before them.

"Long?" Syaoran repeated the words in a question.

"You didn't even took five minutes…" Tomoyo remarked as they all started giggling again.

The day went on with more shopping and ice cream, and soon, they all have to go home.

"The day was great," Tomoyo expressed her gratitude. "It's not everyday that we get to roam around and simply… have fun…Thanks," she added as she and Syaoran bows down.

"It's been so long since we we had fun too," Sakura explained with a smile. "Thank you…" she added as she and Eriol bows down as well.

"Bye!" they all exclaimed as they went on in two different directions.

"Uh…you go on first Eriol… I have to go somewhere okay?" Sakura explained then kissing him on the cheek.

"Where are you going?" Eriol asked, concerned.

"A very special place…" Sakura simply replied.

Eriol simply sighed being the sensitive guy that he is. "Okay then… see you later for dinner," he said and kissed her at the cheeks as well.

Sakura went on her way towards the park and deep into the thickening bundle of trees. She continued on until she reached the calm river and the memorable place of blooming cherryblossom trees.

Sakura sat under the biggest one and leaned on the trunk. With one deep sigh, feeling the breeze on her face, she fell asleep.

00 – 00 – 00 – 00 – 00 – 00 – 00

Tomoyo and Syaoran arrived at the Daidouji mansion within a few minutes, luckily, not followed by a mob of very supportive fans.

"I'll be on my room if you want me okay?" Tomoyo explained as she walked up the stairs towards her room.

"Uh… mind if I roam around the town more?" Syaoran found the urge to go out, yet again.

"Are you sure? Someone might recognize you this time…" Tomoyo tried to talk him out of it.

"Yeah… I'll be fine, don't worry," Syaoran told her as he went ou of the mansion, waving his hand.

Syaoran wondered off to nowhere, it seems, as he turned from one corner to another. Soon, without him noticing, he reached the town'spark and reached the calm river as he continued to walk endlessly.

When he reached the blooming cherryblossom trees, he stared at the blooming, pink flowers and sighed. 'Calm…' he thought dreamily as he walked further, his head high, and his eyes fixed on the falling petals that seemed to be getting more attractive because of the setting sun's orange rays.

"Aw!" a woman's voice exclaimed as Syaoran accidentally trips over her stretched legs when she was leaning on one the the trees, the biggest one to be exact.

"I'm sorry!" Syaoran exclaimed as soon as he heard her voice. He bowed with closed eyes, a little embarrassed of what happened.

"Li?" the woman called him.

Syaoran looked up, surprised, and smiled when he say emerald green eyes staring at him.

"Kinomoto…" he recognized her with a smile. "W-what are you doing here?" he stammered out of him.

"Oh… this is a very special place for me," Sakura simply explained as she looks up into the cherryblossom tree.

"This is a very special place for me!" the sentence echoed back to Syaoran, the voice seems to be of a younger girl, and images of falling cherryblossom petals filled his mind. "Really? It's beautiful" another child's voice replied as children's laughter filled his senses.

"Li?" a the same child's voice that told him the place was special, called.

"Li!" Sakura's voice rung in his ears. "Are you alright?" she asked.

"I'm… fine…" he muttered as he sat beside her and leaned on the tree as well. He reminisced what he saw and sighed at the thought of remembering nothing but the falling petals and a shard of auburn hair.

'Auburn hair…' he thought as he turned to Sakura.

00 – 00 – 00 – 00 – 00 – 00 – 00

"That's a good start…" Cupid said to himself as he eyed Sakura and Syaoran from a distance, sitting on one of the tree branches.

"CUPID!" an angry voice hollered for him.

"What now?" he complained as he disappeared in a swirl of pink little hearts.
