With You
Chapter Twelve: Nightly Fun

Right on time, right on the ten o'clock dot, I heard a car horn honk outside my bedroom window.

I was dreading, literally dreading, getting in that SUV.

Why? Because Syaoran was going to be there.

That school day had been hell enough. I mean, he was in four, four, out of my five classes, homeroom included.

The only class of mine he wasn't in, was my first period, which was my least favorite class.

So, basically, he was in the class that I did like, and now I hated that class; Art.

Damn. Damn. Damn.

I quickly slipped on a light pink zip-up sweater over top of my white tank-top and slipped out the window, something I had become perfectly pro at, I'd done it so much.

Touya had, thankfully, not caught wind of my little ten o'clock escape, yet, and was in his room, listening to music and getting ready to go to sleep. So I was home free.

Touya was, also, less suspicious of me, seeing as he knew all about my break up with Syaoran, and did not know that Syaoran was, actually, here in Japan, his home only a few city blocks away from ours.

I was so dead. So dead it wasn't even funny.

To me, anyway. Tomoyo had found it hilarious.

"Hey Sakura!" Tomoyo grinned as I walked up to the dark blue SUV. She was sitting in the front seat, as usual, her long raven hair tied back into a pony tail. "Finally, we thought you'd fallen asleep."

"Yeah right." I smirked. "Not with Kero, he won't leave me alone."

Tomoyo giggled. "He just missed you, that's all."

"It's been a week. That cat is insane." I rolled my eyes, hopping in the back seat with Meilin, Syaoran was sitting in the far back seats.

Actually, Syaoran was lying in the far back seats, his hands behind his head, his eyes closed and everything.

"Comfy?" I smirked, looking back at him.

He didn't answer, all he did was give me the thumbs up.

Wow, what a talker.

I rolled my eyes and turned to face Meilin. "So how are you guys settling in?"

"So far so good." Meilin smiled. "Thanks for asking. So, what is this Penguin Park, anyway?"

"Only the place that holds all of our childhood memories." Eriol grinned, pulling the car into drive, speeding off down the street.

God, he was just as dangerous a driver as Syaoran. Worse, even.

Then I remembered; it was Syaoran's birthday soon. But when? Who knew, who cared? Not me, he was being way too rude at the moment.

Okay, I did care, but only a little.

"Come on Eriol!" I groaned, leaning forward into the front seats, my fingers finding a stack of CD's on the ground. I picked one out and slipped it in the machine. "Music man, music!"

Eriol rolled his eyes. "You haven't changed, have you?"

"Why would I?" I smiled, pressing play.

I grinned and sat back in my seat, satisfied, as 3 Doors Down's "It's Not Me" came on, the soft tune of the guitar going through the car until the chorus hit in, where it went into loud, rock mode.

Look what you did
Is this who you wanted me to be?
Well it's not me
Look what you did
Is this how you wanted it to be?
In this life you gave away
Was meant for me

"Nice song." Meilin smirked. "I never knew you liked this kind of music."

"That's nothing." Tomoyo smirked. "You should heard Evanescence, or Linkin Park, or My Chemical Romance."

"What's wrong with them?" I said defensively. Diss my music and you die, so to speak.

"Here's a good one." Eriol said, changing the song to My Chemical Romance's "Helena".

"Ha ha." I said. "Very funny Eriol, we get it, okay? You can put on whatever you want."

"Okay." Eriol smiled, putting on Theory of a Deadman's "No Way Out".

I grinned, sitting back in my seat. I loved this song. The lead singer in Theory of a Deadman was hot.

We continued to drive through the streets towards the park, listening to the fine tunes of Theory of a Deadman.

"So." Tomoyo said, turning around in her seat, her eyes fixed on Meilin. "Did our little Saku behave in Hong Kong?"

"Of course I did!" I smirked.

"Sure you did Sakura, sure you did." Syaoran said from the back seat. I could totally tell what he meant by the tone of his voice.

I have to admit that my whole face turned bright red at that one. What an ass to bring up that at a time like this!

Of course, no one else in the car knew what he was talking about, because I hadn't told anyone about our little make out session behind the movie theater, and I was only guessing that he hadn't told Meilin.

And from Meilin's face, I was right, he hadn't told her.

"What are you talking about Syaoran?" she asked.

"Nothing." Syaoran said, his eyes still closed, looking totally laid back.

How tempted I was to punch him, hard, in the stomach.

But, of course, I didn't punch him, as much as I desperately wanted to, but turned back around. "Are we there yet"

And we were.

I hopped out of the back of the SUV without another word and ran into the park, Tomoyo laughing after me.

I, however, wasn't laughing. I was fuming, silently. Ass. Ass. Ass.

"So what's so special about this place?" Meilin asked, hopping out of the car, Syaoran after her, his hands shoved casually into his pockets.

"This, is where we met." Tomoyo smiled. "Well, Sakura and I already knew each other, but this is where we met Eriol."

"I thought we met at school." Eriol said.

Tomoyo shot him a glare. "Okay, this is where we always ran into each other after school. Happy now Hirazagwa?"

"Yup." he grinned.
I rolled my eyes, running up the slide that was shaped like a large penguin head, climbing with ease onto the top, sitting just beside the crown.

"Sakura, get down." Meilin said, rolling her eyes.

I shook my head. "No way, man. I've been waiting all summer to do this."

"So, tell me about why you guys got caught sneaking out a few months ago." Meilin said, climbing up beside me.

I laughed. "Eriol, you tell her."

Eriol smirked. "Tomoyo was out of town and Sakura and I wanted to celebrate the near ending school year, so I picked her up and we went out."

"And got caught." I snickered. "Touya noticed I was gone and he went looking for me, and he heard us running through the streets, so he drove by, barely stopped, and got Yukito to pull me into the car."

"Who's Yukito?" Syaoran asked.

"Oh, he speaks." Eriol laughed.

Syaoran shrugged. "I was just asking."

"Yukito is a family friend of Sakura's." Tomoyo said. "He goes to school with Touya."

"Is he as evil?" Meilin asked.

"No way!" I grinned. "Yukito it like Touya's opposite…almost. He…how can I put this..."

"You already did." Eriol chuckled. "The opposite of Touya. He's way more laid back and let's Sakura get away with too much."

I shrugged. "Too true, too true. Anyway, I grew up with him being around all the time, he's like a brother."

"Sure." Tomoyo laughed. "Come on! We have to go somewhere else, this is boring."

"The shrine?" Eriol suggested.

"Ugh, no way!" I smiled. "We'll show them later. How about…I don't know..."

"The school?" Meilin suggested. "I want to see what it's like without so many people there."

"Perfect." Eriol smiled. "Off to school we go."

I laughed and jumped from the penguin slide, landing in front of him and Tomoyo. "Next time, try not to make it sound like a nursery rhyme, will you?"

XxXxX

We all sat in the school courtyard, some of us, like Syaoran, lying down, staring at the stars. The rest of us were just talking.

"So what about you?" Tomoyo asked, leaning against Eriol, his arm around her shoulders. "You guys have heard our crazy stories, what about yours?"

Our crazy stories? Yeah right, they heard like, five of them, there were lots, lots more…like the time at the beach, when Eriol, Tomoyo and I had all stolen this little boat thing and gone out to far, and the beach patrol had to come out and save us.

We were so grounded.

"What do you mean?" Meilin asked, sounding confused.

"She means," Syaoran said, his amber eyes fixed on the sky above him. "Stuff like what they just told you."

"Oh, okay." Meilin sighed. "No, not really. Except the time we accidentally set fire to the piers while shooting fireworks."

"Ha!" I laughed. "I told you those things were too close to the warehouses!"

Meilin smirked. "Yeah, yeah."

"Anything else?" Eriol asked. "There's got to be more, you guys can't be perfect angels."

I laughed, I couldn't help it. "Syaoran, tell them about your crap driving."

He sat up. "My driving is not crap!"

I nodded. "Yeah, it is."

He glared at me. "You're just a wimp."

"Anyone would be." I shot back.

"Wait, what happened?" Tomoyo smirked.

"Syaoran here, has a Yamaha. He likes to go through red lights."

"I can do that," he said, lying back in the grass. "It's not like anyone got hurt."

True. But I wasn't about to tell him that, he probably knew anyway.

"Anyway." Meilin smirked. "What's on the agenda for tomorrow?"

"Well it's no longer summer vacation." I sighed. "So, school, then homework, then school again, thus the vicious circle."

Eriol rolled his eyes. "We can all go to a movie or something. Hey Sakura, remember that movie you made with Touya and Yukito? It was in that fair thing?"

I laughed and nodded. "I remember, it was this murder thing or something? I can't even remember. I remember how Yukito got sick and fell off the balcony and Touya had to catch him. That was scary."

"It was." Tomoyo frowned. "I'm glad Touya caught him, that would have been a nasty fall, but the movie turned out pretty good."

"Not bad." I shrugged. "Maybe we can get you and Syaoran to meet Yukito, Meilin."

"That'd be cool." Meilin smiled. "He sounds like a cool guy."

"I don't know if that would be a good thing." Eriol said.

"Why not?" Tomoyo asked, looking confused.

"Well, Sakura, have you told Touya that Meilin and Syaoran are here?"

I shook my head. "No, but I know what your getting at, and your right. No offense Syaoran, but Touya doesn't like you much."

Syaoran smirked. "I don't like him much either, so that's not a problem."

I rolled my eyes, hey, at least he was talking to me now.

Somewhat nicely, too.

I sighed and stretched, checking my watch. "We'd better get going, I have to get up early tomorrow."

"Yeah we should get going." Eriol said. "I'm surprised Touya hasn't come looking for you yet."

"Me too. But then again, he probably wouldn't guess that we were at the school." I smirked.

We all got to our feet and walked back to Eriol's car, jumping inside and speeding down the street, chatting about random things, mostly Touya and his overprotective-ness.

"See you tomorrow Sakura." Meilin said as I jumped out of the SUV and ran across my driveway, waving slightly, and climbed up the side of the house, where there was some wooden squares with some ivy growing on it.

"What are you doing?" Meilin hissed up at me.

From the open window I could heard Eriol laughed. "Don't worry, she does this all the time."

I kept climbing, grabbing onto the windowsill, swinging myself across and onto the tiles roof, pulling open my bedroom window.

Then I turned and smile, waving to the four teens in the SUV.

Well, to Tomoyo, Eriol and Meilin. I wasn't going to bother waving to Syaoran.

Then I jumped into my room, closing the window behind me, drawing the curtains.

Okay! I hope you liked it! Review!
