OK Just to give u all heads up b4 u read this next chapter. The ideas I'm about to put in chapter 6 aren't part of the whole story plotline but I went on and decided what the hell. It wouldn't hurt to have more fluff and romance in the fanfic. Enjoy!
Chapter 6: "Your EffectOn Me"
Li Household, Next Morning
"Shiefa, have you seen your brother?" Yelan asked.
"Hmm, now that I recall it. I saw him walking in the halls in a more revealing shirt and sweats with his sword at around 5 in the morning."
Yelan was shocked. "What could he be doing that early in the morning?" she thought.
The door to the entrance clasped shut revealing a sweaty and shirtless Syaoran.
Syaoran panted to catch his breath.
"Syaoran, where were you this whole morning?" Yelan asked.
"Damn. It's time for breakfast already?" he hissed in his head.
"Syaaaoooran!" Meiling howled running towards him.
Syaoran's eyes widened before he came to contact with the cold floor. Yelan and his sisters giggled at the very site.
"This is such a treat." "Seeing you shirtless." "Also sweaty too, as a bonus." she fiddled his muscles with her finger.
While Meiling traced every piece of meat on his chest she noticed something dangling on his neck.
"Huh? What is this piece of junk?" Meiling asked taking the green gemstone into good view.
"Don't touch that!"
Meiling immediately drew back. Syaoran snatched it from her and changed his expression with warm eyes looking at the necklace.
"So where were you, little brother?" Shiefa slyly cut in. "Did something good happen that made you smile this morning.
Now Yelan was more shocked. "My Syaoran? Smiling?" she thought.
"Of course something good happened." Meiling interrupted "My Syaoran's happy because he got to spend time with me yesterday. That's what happened." she stated superiorly.
Syaoran shot Meiling a glare. But Meiling didn't flinch as she ignored it.
"Just wanted to get a fresh start on training. I was brimming with energy this morning so I desperately wanted to work up a sweat." Syaoran said. But this time with a smile. An image of him and Sakura kissing reappeared in his mind.
Syraoan turned red. Everybody but Meiling eyed him suspiciously with sweat drops.
"Little brother's smiling." Fuutie nervously murmured.
"Umm…Is that suppose to be a good thing?" Fanren whispered.
Meiling wasn't at all suspicious as she was too lost in the nice image of Syaoran before her eyes.
"Well…I don't know what to say Syaoran but…..keep up the good work." Yelan said.
"And now that your finished with your training….and me with nothing to do for the day….Let's go spend the day together.." Meiling said jumping on top of him making him fall back with a loud thud.
"Meiling! I never said anything th-"
"Well if this true Syaoran.." his mother cut in "Then I suggest you should spend the day with her."
"Mother wait, I didn't-"
"Is there a problem, Syaoran?" she asked sending chills down his spine.
"No…Not at all, Mother." he gave in.
"Suberashiiiii!" Meiling squealed. ("I'm so happy" or I hope that's what it means. I always hear people say that when they're in joy.)
The Castle, Sakura's Room
Sakura dreamily sighed. Her eyes were still clamped shut.
Sakura's dream
She was on a brightly lit ledge wearing an excessively beautiful pastel pink dress in liplock with a boy. The only thing she can make out from his features were his brown hair and that he was dressed up in green. The way he kissed felt just like the guy from the other night.
The two pulled away from each other. Sakura began to stream tears down from her eyes.
"Why did you stop?" she cried.
"Please princess." he pleaded. "Don't cry because of me." gently wiping away her tears. "But I must go now."
She doesn't understand. "Why? Why do you have to go?"
"You're the princess. And I'm just a regular guy." "What we want….it defies against everything in this kingdom."
Sakura sadly looked at the ground.
"But-" he began. Sakura looked up. He took her hand and roughly pulled her into his arms. Sakura was frightened at this. He couldn't help but smile at her expression.
He gently caressed her cheek and cupped her chin. "…it doesn't mean that I'll give up either."
Her expression changed back to a smile.
"Remember princess…" "You are mine and mine alone. I can be the only one that protects you. And I won't let anybody take that away from me." he whispered in her ear and made his grand exit.
She was left standing alone hugging her arms around her heart and dreamily staring at his retreating figure.
End of Dream
Back to Syaoran
"I said that's enough, Meiling. Just be happy that I agreed to spending time with you."
"But Syaoran.." Meiling began. Syaoran groaned and rolled his eyes. "It's only decent that we hold hands. It'll let people know that we're a couple."
"And don't think about ditching me again Syaoran. Think of how devastated your mother would feel if she heard you abandoned your soon to be wife." she smiled evilly.
Syaoran gritted his teeth.
Sakura's Room
"Come on Sakura. This is crazy. From what you told me, it's hard to believe." a girl argued.
"It is true, Tomoyo. He did come. And on the lips too." Sakura squealed.
"How can she so dense sometimes?" Tomoyo thought giving her friend a worried look.
"But if a guy did come to your balcony, how are you so sure that it wasn't some older crabby guy?"
"No Tomoyo, his voice was too masculine and sexy to be like that." Sakura daydreamed.
"But you can't just assume on how his voice sounds."
"Yes, but when we kissed.." sigh "I felt how muscular his body was when I pressed mine against his." "Now stop arguing with me Tomoyo and help me pick a dress?" "He might come back tonight." "Hmmm…Something tells me I should go with the green one." throwing it on her bed.
"Only if you let me do your hair." Tomoyo smiled.
"No problem."
Back to Syaoran
"Meiling please. Can we go back now?" "The day is almost over."
"Aww. And I planned for us to watch the stars together."
"No Meiling…Enough is enough."
"Hmph.. And I wonder what Auntie Yelan has to say to that?" Meiling said superiorly reminding Syaoran.
Syaoran flinched "Where do we go?" he gritted.
"I knew you would see it my way." she replied dragging him.
Nightfall, Sakura's Balcony
Sakura was standing on the edge of the balcony beautifully in a gorgeous green gown matching her eyes. It started from beneath her shoulders and revealing a little bit of her cleavage and tight from there to her waist outlining her supple goddess body. Fit for girls her age. The rest of the dress from her hips flowed down to her feet wearing cute light green sandals outlined in sliver just like the designs on the dress. But the most standing out on her body was a silver chained choker with a very similar looking emerald gem in the shape of a cherry blossom dangling on her fragile neck.
(Yeah I know. Reeally long description, but I just got so interested in how she was dressed even if I aimed to make this easy and enjoyable.)
"I hope he comes…" Sakura thought as her heart thumped like crazy.
Syaoran's Point of View
"Took her long enough to calm down…" Syaoran exasperated.
Images of Meiling tackling and pulling him down popped in his mind.
Syaoran shuddered. "Hope today's enough to tire her out."
Syaoran plopped back down on a roof to take a nice nap in hopes of getting away from his family.
Sakura's Point of View
About an hour has passed.
"Where is he?" Sakura thought still on the balcony.
Syaoran
"What a nap.." he yawned. He sat up but didn't leave yet.
"Sakura…" he murmured embracing her name.
Syaoran veered his head over to the castle and looked at Sakura's window only to see her leaning on the balcony beautifully dressed.
"Sakura? What is she-?" "Why is she dressed up?" Syaoran widened his eyes. "She couldn't be waiting for me, could she?"
Back to Sakura
"Sakura honey, it's time for bed." her mother said.
"Please Mom. 15 more minutes."
Syaoran
Syaoran was jumping through the roofs of everyone's houses through the village.
"Please wait for me, Princess. Just a little more." he rushed.
"He really isn't coming…"she sadly thought. "I guess I was a fool thinking that he would come.." Sakura motioned from the ledge and walked back to her room.
Syaoran saw this. "No! Sakura, wait!" he yelled hoping she would hear. She still walked back too heartbroken to hear anything.
"Please Sakura! Don't leave!" The door to her window clasped shut.
OK I'll end it there. This chapter was a spur of the moment and I thought it would b good enough to cut one in now. But I am tired right now. Unless I get any better, all I can do is just update once a week. So I wanted to give all of u guys heads up. It's hard for me to relax easily and if I could get any suggestions, I'd b more than happy to hear them. Really happy! My sn is CruellyInnocent7 for AIM if u want to talk to me about any upcomings in the story and or for MSN. I'm tired and thankful if u guys understand how I feel now.
