Sakura ran into her room and shut the door quickly behind her. She ran to her bookcase and grabbed the nearest book. She opened it to a random page and sat on her bed, trying to look innocent.
"SAKURA!"
Syaoran slammed the door open, and leaned against the door frame. "Where is it?"
Sakura looked up from the book and smiled innocently at him "Where's what?"
"I've been here for over a year now, Miss Sakura. Your act doesn't fool me anymore."
Sakura shrugged and pretended to get back to her book. She tried her hardest to keep a straight face as he walked over to her and kneeled so they were eye-to-eye.
"Here." Syaoran took the book from her hands and flipped it right side up. "Now please tell me where you hid my bow."
A light blush spread across her face and she turned away from his gaze. "I don't know what you're talking about."
"Really?" An evil smirk spread across his face. "Then I'll just have to force it out of you."
Sakura shrieked as Syaoran picked her up from behind. "Syaoran, put me DOWN!" He slung her over his shoulders, like she was a bag of potatoes.
"Li Syaoran put me down NOW!" Sakura continued to scream at him as her carried her outside to the Angel Fountain.
Sakura paused. "You wouldn't!"
Syaoran smirked. "So where's my bow?"
Sakura gave up and sighed exasperately. "Alright its in Father's study. Now please put me down."
His smirk twisted into an evil grin. "Alright."
SPLASH
"YOU JERK!" Sakura's face was red with anger. She was drenched and sitting in the dirty fountain. Syaoran chuckled at the sight.
"THIS ISN'T FUNNY!" Sakura glared at him and he laughed harder at her pathetic glare. Sakura's face suddenly fell and her eyes watered. Syaoran noticed and instantly stopped laughing. Without thinking, he hopped over the side of the fountain into the cold water with her.
"Don't cry Sakura. What's wrong? I didn't hurt you did I? I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. I'm so sorry." He said as he waded over to her. He touched her face gently and wiped away the single tear.
Sakura smiled and put her hand over his. "Your so sweet." She grasped his hand into her own and put it around her waist,pulling him closer into a hug. Quickly all her saddness was washed away as an evil smirk grew on her face. She pulled him tightly against her, and pushed him with all her strength. Before Syaoran could react,he fell backward under water with Sakura on top of him.
Sakura giggled and rolled off him, as his mind processed what just happened. In a flash, he sat up and glared at her. "YOU'RE SUCH A LIAR!"
Sakura stood up and began to wade her way out of the fountain. "Now we're even." Syaoran stood up grumbling and followed her. He quickly passed her, forhe was wearing pants, and her a dress that weighed ten pounds more while wet. He grinned and pushed her lightly, causing her to fall backwards on her butt.
"Meanie!" Sakura yelled at him while he effortlessly hopped out of the fountain. He turned around, looking quite smug, and replied, "Need help?"
Sakura stood up, holding her dress up out of the water, and waded to the side of the fountain. "Not from you thanks." She sat down on the edge, and attempted to try swinging her legs over. Instead, Syaoran picked her up bridal shower out of the fountain.
She blushed as he put her down gently, with his arms around her waist. "I thought you didn't need my help."
Her blush instantly vanished and she turned away from his piercing gaze and out of his grip. "You are so frustrating!"
Syaoran grabbed her hand and spun her around back into his arms. "I know." His hand cupped her chin, and he traced her jaw with his thumb. "But that's why you love me." He whispered and in a flash, his lips were on hers.
"Ahem."
The two instantly jumped apart. Fujitaka smiled as he watched the two, who were clearly embarresed. "Syaoran, your mother's here to see you."
Syaoran's embarressment instantly washed away. He bowed politely, "Excuse me." He gave a quick smile to Sakura as he walked away.
Fujitaka smiled at his beloved daughter with sad eyes. Tough times were in store for her and he could do nothing to protect her. "Come my daughter. We have much to discuss."
"Syaoran!" Sakura ran through the hall to her best friend's room, tears streaming down her face. "Syaoran!" she slammed open the door and looked around the room. "What's going on?" His room was almost completely empty. Syaoran was standing beside his bed, folding clothes into a suitcase.
Syaoran looked at the ground as guilt overflowed his senses. "Sakura," He walked over to her and more tears ran down her face.
"No. No!" Sakura turned to run out, but Syaoran grabbed her arms and pulled her against him. "Sakura please listen to me!"
"I don't want to." He didn't say anything. She wrapped her arms around his neck and cried into his shirt. Syaoran wrapped his arms comfortingly around her small waist and his hands lost themselves in her hair.
"Mother wants me to come home. She thinks I've been here too long." Syaoran kissed her forehead lightly. "I have to go back. I don't have a choice."
After a few long moments, Sakura's sobs stiffeled. "When are you leaving?"A long sigh escaped his lips. "As soon as I finish packing." Sakura's grip tightened. "So soon." she whispered.
"Hey." Syaoran cupped her chin in his hands and tilted her face to look at him. "This isn't goodbye, Sakura. I'll be back to visit you."
More tears seemed to fall down her face at his words. "I don't want you to go." He wiped some of her tears away with his thumb. "I love you."
Syaoran smiled and he pulled her into a light kiss. He pulled back slightly. Her mouthswas so close, he could feel her breath in his. He traced his thumb across her cheek and outlined her lips with his fingertip. "Sakura..."
Sakura kissed him lovingly. He quickly responded deepening the kiss. Their tongues clashed together as they explored new territory. He held her tightly against himself until they separated. Both out of breath, Syaoran held her face in his hands, placing butterfly kisses on her cheeks and forehead. He pulled back to breathe. "I love you too." He paused. "and we WILL see each other again." He kissed her forehead lightly.
"Syaoran." Sakura and Syaoran looked towardshis mother standing in the doorway. "It's time to go. I would like to get home before dark."
Syaoran nodded. "I'll be down in a minute mother." His mother nodded. "I'll be waiting. It was nice to see you again Miss Sakura."
Sakura forced a smile on her face. "Same to you Mrs. Li." As soon as she shut the door, Sakura turned back to Syaoran with fresh tears in her eyes. "Please don't leave me."
"I have to go." Syaoran kissed her lightly on the forehead. "I love you." He whispered as he kissed her deeply on her lips. Sakura closed her eyes and responded with passion and desire. He pulled away after they ran out of breath. When she opened her eyes, he was gone.
