Before she could reach it she slipped because of her wet feet. Sakura was waiting for the impact of the floor but didn't feel it. Instead, she felt strong arms wrapped around her form. Her emerald eyes opened to meet the intense amber, that was staring right back.

They stayed in that position for a while; emerald and amber, gazing into each others eyes. Sakura finally snapped out of it and broke the gaze. The cell had already stopped ringing.
"Thank you Syaoran for catching me." Sakura thanked getting out of Syaoran's grasp. Syaoran seriously wished that they could've stayed in that comfortable position more longer.
"Uh yah.. no problem." Syaoran replied back, getting in the pool. He needed to get refreshed. He couldn't believe that that had actually happened. Is he seriously starting to like this girl he just met?
"Awwe! How kawaii!" Mei Ling squeaked jumping up and down. She had witnessed what had happened and she could tell that her friend and her cousin were really starting to like each other.
Sakura raised a brow at this and looked at Mei Ling questionly. "Have you been talking to Tomoyo lately 'cause the Mei Ling I know doesn't say that kind of shit."
Mei Ling just laughed and waved the question off. She walked over to Sakura and pushed her hard into the pool. After that she jumped in as well.
"Bombs away!" Eriol yelled and leaped into the pool as well. All four enjoyed the rest of the evening in the pool, having water spashing fights and so on.

"Thanks for having me over Mei Ling-chan, Syaoran, Eriol. It was great to meet you both and I had lots of fun."
"Are you absolutely sure that you want to walk home? Syaoran can bring you home right Syaoran?" Mei Ling asked worringly.
"No It's okay I can walk home." Sakura quickly replied before Syaoran can open his mouth. If she couldn't stay in the same room with him without going weak in the knees, how the hell would she be able to stay in the same car with him.. alone? And quiet?
Mei Ling decided not to argue with her any more so she could only nod.
"Walk safely." Eriol grinned.
As Sakura left, Syaoran was called inside by his mother Yelan Li. Walking into the living room he sat on the beiged colour loveseat and looked up to his mother. She had gorgeous jet black hair that was in a high ponytail and then wrapped up into a tight bun. Her dark brown eyes, gazing lovingly at her son as her lips formed into a small smile.
"Xiao Lang, I have great news. Well, to me it is great news." Yelan replied softly. Somehow, Syaoran felt like he was dreading to hear the rest of the "great news." Syaoran stared at his mother, giving her a look that meant for her to go on.
"A close friend of mine and I...have decided that you and her daughter shall get married and you two will marry by the end of August." Yelan stated, now looking at Syaoran sharply. As soon as Syaoran finished hearing her last words, everything went berserk.
"WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU MEAN BY GREAT NEWS? THAT'S THE WORST NEWS I HAVE EVER HEARD. WHAT THE FUCK I'M TOO YOUNG TO MARRY." Syaoran shouted clearly to his mother making sure she heard him clearly. Yelan sighed. She knew this was going to happen.
"Syaoran. You are so not too young to marry. You do know that all four of your sisters, Shiefa, Fiemei, Fuutie, and Fanren got married by this age. You have no right to yell such curses at me or in this house. You are going to marry this gorgeous young beauty at the end of August. Final." Yelan stated clearly, counting her fingers when she had said her four daughters names. Syaoran shut his mouth and growled a low growl. He sat back down on the couch and asked through clenched teeth.
"What is her name, how old is she, where is she from, and what makes her so good enough to make you want me to marry her?"
"Yakashiro, Kassie. 19 years of age from Tomoeda Japan. Her mother and I have been friends for ages and we wanted to plan something with our children so we decided on an arranged marriage. Trust me Syaoran, she is a very beautiful woman. I have seen her, she has strawberry blonde hair and light blue eyes." Yelan imformed.
Syaoran grummbled something under his breath but Yelan couldn't tell what the words were.
"Trust me, she's worth it."
"I sure hope she is!" Syaoran sarcastically replied. Yelan gave him a cold look which meant you-better-stop-giving-me-this-fucking-attitude. Syaoran shoved his hands into his pocket and walked to his room and slammed the door loudly. He was pissed.. fucking pissed.

Mei Ling had overheard everything that happened since they were talking quite loud. She had to tell Eriol this..Eriol too had also noticed the way Sakura and Syaoran gazed at each other. Were they falling for each other already?

Sakura shut the door behind her and locked it. Her hand dug into her purse, snatching her cell phone and flipping it open to see who had called her.
"Should've known it would be Tomoyo. She calls me every 2 seconds." Sakura mummbled aloud to herself. She decided to call Tomoyo back incase something came up that was very important. Sakura dailed her number and waited for Tomoyo to answer.
"Hi! You've reached me. Sorry I couldn't come to the phone right now.. try back later."
'Darn her answering machine..' Sakura thought, starting to worry if something terrible happened. What if her dad and brother got into a terrible vehicle accident? What if Tomoyo got kidnapped? Sakura shook the thoughts away as goosebumps formed on her tanned arms. She rubbed them and decided to head to her laptop to go on MSN to see if Tomoyo was on.
As soon as she logged on, somebody had added her.
-Tai-
Right when Sakura read the name Tai, that horrible memory came to her mind as she paled. What did he want with her now? After two years, he has walked back into Sakura's life. Sakura didn't know whether or not to accept or decline. She put her arm on the desk and cupped her cheek in her palm sighing, trying to think. Accidently she moved the mouse over the accept button and clicked. Sakura groaned once she figured that she clicked the accept button. But at the same time she thought about it and decided that it was actually quite a good thing also. Sooner or later she would have to face him.. right? And by the way.. who even gave him her e-mail addres?
Sakura's eyes started to droop but she caught her eyes open before they shut. First, she would have to take a shower to drain all her thoughts and secondly, she'd sleep in her queen sized cozy bed where her soft teddy bear lay.
The soft ring of her e-mail interupted her thoughts.
1 new e-mail message
She wondered if it was Tomoyo. Sakura lazily clicked on it and waited for it to load. Her emerald eyes widened once she saw the person who sent it to her. That same name she saw before..
-Tai- ...

Syaoran was absolute furious and outraged about the arranged marriage. He clutched his head hoping that he could get out of it. There was probably a way.. but he couldn't think of any right now. Syaoran also hoped that this Kassie girl won't be a bitch like all of the other girls he had dated. All they wanted from him was his money and the throne of the Li Clan.
Syaoran sighed as he thought of one girl.. Sakura.
Whoa whoa wait a minute.. back up there! He, Syaoran Li was thinking of Sakura! Now why would he be doing that? Syaoran growled, trying to get her gorgerou smile out of his mind. He needed time to think. So Syaoran grabbed his jacket off his chair and headed out the door.
He didn't know where he was going; he let his feet take him to where ever they wanted to go. As he stopped walking, he looked up and noticed that he was at Cherry Blossom park. a/n: made up This place was the only place where he could shake his thoughts off and relax in peace. His feet slowly walked over to a near by bench and he sat down.

Sakura,
It's well..me Tai. You probably already know that but, I wanted to apologize for 2 years ago. You remember very well right? But it wasn't my fault! I swear to god that Yakashiro forced her self onto me. You've gotta trust me on this! I love you very much and I never wanted to hurt you like I did. You're proabably wondering why now right? I had no idea you'd go as far as to run away to where ever you are right now. I got your e-mail from Tomoyo.. don't be getting angry at her now..I practically forced her to give me your new e-mail. I hope that you will forgive me from your heart.. I love you and always will.
Tai.
Sakura skimmed through the note with her eyes darting back and fourth. She couldn't believe it! But.. how would she be able to know if Tai was lying or not? Sakura couldn't e-mail him back just yet, she needed time to think. Her hands quickly grabbed her pink fur coat and she walked out of her house and started walking down the deserted side walk. The sun had already setted and the lamp posts have litted, making the light glow on Sakura's form. Sakura had no idea where she was going but at the end, she found herself at a park filled with cherry blossom trees. Her face finally brightened up and she smiled whole heartedly at all the trees. Sakura absolutely loved cherry blossoms. That's why her named was named after them.
Sakura sighed and started to walk to sit underneath a tree but stopped abruptly when she saw a figure sitting on a bench staring right back at her. Her eyes squinted to get a better look and she gasped wondering if it was Syaoran. Sakura knew it was though, the unruly chocolate hair and his intense amber eyes, she could never forget them. She walked slowly towards him and stopped until she was infront of him. Her emerald eyes gazed into his amber eyes and she couldn't tell what emotions he had but she was falling into his gaze.
"Hello Syaoran, what are you do-." Sakura started off but got cut when his soft lips brushed againts her own.
Sakura's eyes widened but gave in and kissed him back. She wrapped her arms around his neck as he pulled her closer with his arms around her waist. The kiss deepened and was turned into a passionate one as their tounges danced with each other under the blooming cherry blossom tree.
