Chapter8: Thanksgiving Sickness II
Yelan eyed her future daughter-in-law and sighed, as she seemed to look everywhere else but at her.
"Ying dear…" Yelan started drawing Ying's eyes to make contact with her once more.
"Yes?" Ying said hesitatingly.
"As Syaoron's wife and…well a Chinese wife in general…doesn't "throw" things "if" he husband would like to go out without her." Yelan watched Ying's expression and knew she was embarrassed as her cheeks turned slightly red.
"You mustn't raise your voice, you must always obey his judgment, and most of all you mustn't lose your temper" Yelan said a little sharply. "Destroying the house will get you nowhere but a mess to clean up understood?"
Ying nodded dumbly but refused to look at her future mother-in-law anymore.
'Damn woman, keep your advice to yourself' Ying thought bitterly. She was sick of lectures and sick of these old people telling her what's best for her. She wanted to live her life the way she wanted and not the way the "old" generation wanted.
'Damn you Syaoron Li if you think I'll obey you're every command as a stupid bitch!'
Yelan shook her head slightly as Ying once more had seemed to be thinking out something else. Giving up for the hundredth time Yelan gently tapped the oak table a little loudly to signify her leaving.
It worked Ying looked up.
"Now…Since I believe you are most occupied with your thoughts, I trust you'll sleep on this advice I lend to you?" Yelan said more forcefully than good-naturally. She walked to the door and turned back to receive an answer when she didn't hear one, she arched an eyebrow slightly.
"Yes" Ying answered relief flooded her face as she realized there would be no more mother to daughter talking.
"One more thing" Yelan said turning back before she left completely. "Obedience to your husband is not a weakness but more of an endearment"
Ying scowled at her back as she left "tramps like you don't need to exist any longer" Ying muttered under her breath and went upstairs. If she wasn't going out tonight then she might as well change to her teddy and go to sleep.
Flinging her black hair back she flounced upstairs in her super model walk with her nose in the air haughtily.

Syaoron groaned slightly as Eriol decided to start on his change of character since the last time they saw each other.
"Eriol!" Syaoron said gruffly like a grouchy bear. "Shut the hell up for once and enjoy" Syaoron said pointing to his sake and drank it up.
Eriol watched as Syaoron continued to drown his mood in sake. Shaking his head slightly he took off his glasses and cleaned them.
"Syaoron…really what is wrong?"
Syaoron didn't answer as he stared away completely lost in his own world.
"Syao…"Eriol said a little louder.
He turned around and ran a hand through his already messy brown hair.
"Hell Eriol…" Syaoron said pushing the sake away. "This isn't me!"
Eriol smiled slightly "I knew it already, so you might as well tell me now…"
"Or what?" Syaoron said getting up from the bar.
"You know I have my ways to dig up your secrets" Eriol said with a twinkle in his eyes.
"You sure as hell do!" Syaoron said cursing. He pulled out a twenty and laid it out on the bar.
"Leave?" Eriol asked.
"Yeah" Syaoron mumbled
"You're drunk aren't you?" Eriol asked
"Why do you say that?" Syaoron asked with a trace of anger.
"You're cursing a lot more, you paid more than you owe, and you forgot your keys?" Eriol said pointing out the obvious. With a grin he snatched the keys. "I'll drive, you relax a little and tell me what I missed"
"Your funeral" Syaoron replied and strolled out of the club.
Eriol smiled a half smile and caught up with his friend. "Ya know Syao…You're humor and jokes are worse when you're drunk"
"Two words" Syaoron said turning to him.
"FUCK YOU" they both chorused together.
Eriol laughed, "I thought so…"
"Hell" Syaoron said afterwards and continued to the car.
Eriol started the engine in Syaoron's sliver Toyota Celica.
"So you "are" going to tell me, right?"
Syaoron sighed loudly. "You win"
Eriol grinned. Pestering Syaoron was always his greatest weakness.
"I felt bad being with Ying tonight…"
"Sakura?" Eriol said keeping his eyes on the road as he talked.
Syaoron didn't answer but stared at Eriol. He was so carefree, so free of problems… Eriol draped his left arm casually against the wheel as he shifted the car into manual and his right gripped the stick.
Noticing his friend's stare he turned quickly to look at Syaoron "It is her isn't it?"
"Yeah" Syaoron said turning away from him. "I…Well she and me…still aren't that cool…plus I think I threw a little…lust in…"
"OH" Eriol said, "You dug yourself a hole"
"Hell yeah" Syaoron muttered rubbing his eyes.
"Ya know what Syao, let's hang at your place since I'm sure ya wife-to-be is snoozing by now"
"Sure why not? You torment me just as much over the phone, the only difference is I can't hang up when I want to"
Eriol laughed, "You never hang up anyways"
"I just might one day" Syaoron replied staring out the window like a child pressing his head to the glass.
"You screwed badly tonight Syaoron…let's not talk about it then okay?" Eriol said entering Syaoron's driveway.
"Ya" Syaoron said stating at Sakura's house next door.
"You're damn screwed" Eriol softly whispered under his breath as he watched his friend's gaze come in contact with a certain window where a light was on.

Sakura curled on Tomoyo's shoulder.
"Hey…" Tomoyo said softly to Sakura. She brushed Sakura's beautiful Honey brown hair away from her face. "Saku… do me a favor and don't start anything tomorrow…let's have a great reunion…ne?"
"All right" Sakura said softly as she snuggled on Tomoyo's lap.
"Dress up with me tomorrow?" Tomoyo asked softly.
"All right!" Sakura said with a giggle. Her headshot up and they giggled together. Dressing up could always cheer up Sakura.
"Only if I can dress you," Sakura said evilly.
"Okay, I dress you" Tomoyo said with her own evilness.
"Deal" Sakura stuck her hand out. They both shook and collapsed in laughter.
Tomoyo watched her friend brighten and smiled softly. She'd have to help Sakura now…Since Sakura was the one who hooked her and Eriol up she'd have to hook these two clueless people up, no matter what she had to dress Sakura in.
……………………………………………………………………………………………
Nadeshiko heard Sakura's musical laughter and smiled softly. Maybe Tomoyo being back wasn't so bad…Thank the lord that her Sakura was back.
Nadeshiko felt a hand lay on her shoulder and she smiled slightly.
"Fujitaka…" Nadeshiko sighed.
She felt the warmth even as she went to her bed and cuddle in the blankets, she knew she wasn't alone tonight so let her have this peaceful time to herself.
……………………………………………………………………………………………
Sakura ate her Breakfast/Lunch happily as she reminisced her morning.
Tomoyo would be back at 5:30 to pick her up for the party but till then! It was only two in the afternoon; she had plenty of time.
Sakura giggled softly as she spread butter onto her toast and remembered what she dressed Tomoyo in.
Tomoyo had left dressed in tight leather pants with high heels complete with a dark blue halter-top that ended above her belly button.
Finishing her meal happily Sakura slipped out of her chair and twirled a complete turn before she saw her brother and sister-in-law.
"Morning" Sakura said brightly coming up to give them hugs.
"Morning Kaju…" Touya started and a hand flew over his mouth.
'How's sleeping beauty?" Kaho asked sweetly keeping her hand tightly clamped against Touya's mouth.
"Beautiful!" Sakura laughed not minding her brother with his death glare centered towards his wife who ignored him.
"Great!" Kaho smiled brightly.
"Where are you two headed for Thanksgiving?" Sakura asked cocking her head to one side.
"Everywhere!" Kaho laughed. "We've been invited everywhere!"
"Well have fun!" Sakura said happily waving them off as she climbed the stairs to her room humming.
Kaho smiled as she watched Sakura walk up.
Touya narrowed his eyes at Kaho and licked her hand. She removed her hand. He smirked at her.
"Darling!" Kaho screeched and smacked him lightly on the shoulder.
"You deserve it besides what's ever stopped you from letting me greet my sister?"
"Well Honey! She's had a tough day yesterday and she's human again so don't ruin her mood!" Kaho walked off.
"Woman!" Touya groaned.
"Will be the death of you!' Kaho cheerily informed him.
"Definitely!" Touya groaned following his wife.
……………………………………………………………………………………………
"Dress to impress!" Sakura drilled into her head as she dressed for the hundredth time. For the hundredth time she couldn't find anything.
"Holy mother of…"
"I thought so…" a sweet voice entered her bedroom cutting her sentence short. "No worries though, your fairy godmother's here!"
"Tomoyo!" Sakura smiled weakly "Why are you back here so early?!"
"Early? It's four"
"Four?" Sakura said looking at her clueless "Are you serious?'
"Yep!" Tomoyo laughed "Besides if I didn't come with things you'd never be ready in another hour and thirty minutes."
Sakura sighed knowing Tomoyo was indeed correct!
"Now! Try this! Besides you didn't think I'd really forget about our bet right?' Tomoyo said pointing to the attire she wore.
Sakura smiled a little and looked away clearing her throat.
"Well…don't ruin my mood go change!!!" Tomoyo shooed her into her walk in closet.
Tomoyo pranced around the room in happiness as she plotted her evil plan to hook up those two. Toying with a strand of her hair she giggled softly as she knew Eriol would notice her meddling but who cares, he would never be able to stop her anyways.
'Sakura! Ready?" Tomoyo called in a singsong voice.
"Yea I'm out!" Sakura sighed peeking out of the closet only to be swung fully out my Tomoyo who gushed at her sense of fashion since Tomoyo was majoring in Fashion Designing, her taste was always best and after all she spent half the childhood with Sakura dressing her.
Tomoyo suddenly laughed a manic laugh of happiness and success.
"Brilliant!" Tomoyo laughed again twirling Sakura around as the dress clung to her every curve.
Although the dress only went up to her knee the dress clung tightly framing and accenting everything she had to its fullest.
"I look wanton" Sakura stated.
"Great!" Tomoyo said with joy
"Tomoyo!!!" Sakura whined but to no anvil she was already digging through jewelry.
"Here!" Tomoyo smiled happily showing what she had in her hands.
Sakura eyed the necklace that Syaoron got her for her 17th birthday. It was a golden cherry blossom that glowed pink in the dark.
"NO!" Sakura whined "Please Tomoyo, dress me in something else and I promise I won't complain anymore!"
Tomoyo looked into her pleading eyes and a grin touched her lips again.
"All right, but I'll pick!"
"Deal!" Sakura smiled a little at…nothing.
Tomoyo was already digging into Sakura's closet again.
……………………………………………………………………………………………
Syaoron scowled at himself again and cursed his picky self today. He'd spent half the afternoon staring at different outfits on himself and so far he hated every single one as soon as he thought of what Sakura would think.
"Mother…."
"Tsk Tsk Syao" Eriol smirked shaking a finger in his direction from the door.
"Fuck it Eriol" Syaoron said taking off his sweater and collapsing on his bed.
"Syaoron what about this?" Eriol said picking up a dark green muscle shirt and a black jacket.
"Why?" Syaoron groaned
Eriol smiled sweetly. "Because Sakura bought this outfit for you…"
Eriol stared as the outfit disappeared and Syaoron stood wearing it with a smile on his face.
"I'm ready let's go" Syaoron called heading downstairs.
Eriol rushed down as well with a smile tugging restlessly at the corner of his mouth.
"Whoa Syao, you aren't single anymore…aren't you forgetting someone?"
"Sakura?"
"No…Ying" Eriol said with a sly smile.
"Oh…" Syaoron said his face fell two times as hard and patiently waited till he smelled the overpowering French allure perfume hit his nostrils paralyzing him.
"I'm ready!" a shrill voice exclaimed lovingly.
"Great let's go" Syaoron said the door and breathed in fresh air with relief.
Eriol looked just as grateful when he also took a clear breath.
"Let's hit it!" Eriol said happily scooting to the back while Ying and Syaoron sat up front.
……………………………………………………………………………………………
Sakura groaned she never made that deal with Tomoyo; She had dressed her up in a pink tank top with a black tight jacket complete with tight black slacks and thin high-heeled boots. To top of the whopper she'd accented Sakura's neck with…
DUN, DUN, DUN
Syaoron's necklace… (Sweat drop)
"Let's go!" Tomoyo yelled heading to the car.
Sakura groaned… "Tomoyo…"
……………………………………………………………………………………………
"SAKURA!" The girls shouted as the reached Kei's House.
"Hi!" Sakura smiled walking into all the girls' embraces.
Chiharu hugged her the longest and leaned towards her ear.
"I'm engaged…"
Sakura paused and Chiharu looked at her with a huge smile
"Takashi?" Sakura asked excitedly
Chiharu nodded shyly.
Sakura screamed along with all the other girls
"Congratulations!!!"
Chiharu nodded and blushed even more.
Sakura was caught up in the rush as each girl asked questions to everyone, before she knew it the party was at full blast and she was teasing all the boys until one walked in and her world stopped.
"Syaoron!" The boys and girls called.
He turned and she turned, their eyes met and Sakura felt a twig of hurt and happiness at his presence.
……………………………………………………………………………………………
Syaoron felt a twig of jealousy as He saw Sakura sitting surrounded by guys and there was even a guy he didn't know. He felt his jaw line set in place. He had hoped to be happy tonight, it looks like this was already beginning to be an evening of being pissed.
'Damn' Syaoron cursed slightly.
Tomoyo saw the glare Syaoron clearly shot the guy.
"Syaoron meet Terry!" Tomoyo said introducing them "This is my friend visiting from Osaka"
"Hey" Terry said. He smiled lightly at Syaoron pushing his Black hair back to reveal violet eyes.
Syaoron nodded slowly and
Ying clung onto Syaoron with her vice-grips and whined about wanting to eat now!
Sakura felt a twig of jealously slowly spread as well through her body.
"Terry?" Sakura asked
He turned and smiled. From the moment he met Sakura he knew he wouldn't mind having her as a girlfriend and since she was free…
"Yeah?"
"Mind taking me to dinner?" Sakura smiled a charming smile and put her hand on his shoulder.
"Of course, anything for a beauty such as you"
"Thank you" Sakura smiled sweetly.
Syaoron set his jaw and glared at Terry's back (If only looks could kill)
Sakura laughter brought him back to reality and he watched as she curved her arm around Terry's lovingly.
Just like she used to hold me!
Syaoron felt jealousy snap and took a breath of air. He refused to be the one to run! If anyone were doing the running it'd be her.
After Dinner
Sakura felt like suffocating because of Syaoron. He'd walk in with that Bitch and didn't even say hi to her.
"Then again you never said hi many times yourself" Sakura mumbled to herself. She tried to concentrate on the words leaving Terry's mouth but she found that Syaoron and her liked to eye lock a lot better than Terry's attempt.
His Amber eyes bore down on her back and she didn't need to turn around to know that they were there. She could feel his hot eyes on her that looked her up and down and knew exactly where to touch.
Sakura shook her head free of those erotic fantasies and ordered her to refocus on the conversations. She faked a smile to terry and allowed his arm to drape her shoulders casually although all he really did was irritate her at the moment. Sakura knew Terry wanted some by the end of the day, every guy did.
Tomoyo couldn't help but glance at those two unsuspecting pairs and giggled slightly as she saw Sakura breath quicken when Syaoron stared at her back.
"Ahh so they can sense one another's stare…"
"Who?" Rika asked next to her.
"Saku and Syao" Tomoyo grinned
"What?" Rika asked, "is there some big thing I missed?"
"There is if you don't know this!" Tomoyo said happily and informed the girls quickly of her evening she had planned.
The entire girl group burst into laughter.
"Hey!" Tomoyo said, "I'm playing by Ego only and we know what they both have!"
"EGO" Rika and Chiharu chorused
"Don't forget PRIDE!!" Meling and Naoko added with giggles.
"What's so funny?" Sakura asked joining the girls.
"Nothing" Tomoyo qui8ckly said "Just facts!"
"About?" sakura asked "I'd like to know…"
"Nah, you're not interested trust me!" Tomoyo said taking a bottle of the shelf with a pretty glint.
Meling laughed and whooped sliding her arm into Dau Sz. linking them
"All right you people!" Tomoyo said gathering the groups of boys and girls.
"I have decided as a game to play spin the bottle and it's quite fair since…we have even numbers of boys and girls!"
Rika and Chiharu laughed and moved to their own men side.
"Everyone in?" Tomoyo asked.
"NO!" Sakura said, "I'll watch"
"SAKURA!!!" the girls chorused, "If you don't play then where will Terry play?"
Sakura flushed and stood firmly. "I don't think so"
"All well…" Tomoyo said tearfully "I guess poor Terry will have to watch as well just because Sakura had to spoil the mood of the game for us… and…Terry…then I guess she's too chicken to kiss!"
Everyone laughed and looked at Sakura.
If Tomoyo wasn't so far Sakura would've smacked her but everyone could see Sakura's pride and Ego shine through that pretty head or hers.
"FINE!" Sakura said snapping up her head to look at all of them. "Better yet, I'll go first just to prove I'm not a chicken to kiss, besides don't blame me if the man I kiss doesn't walk out clinging to you anymore.
Tomoyo's eyes lit up "All right"
She handed the beer bottle to Sakura who placed it on the floor and sat down cross-legged.
Everyone joined the group and Tomoyo watched as She spun.
Tomoyo looked at all the girls and stopped the bottle.
"Wha?" Sakura raised an eyebrow to look at Tomoyo
She smiled sweetly back at her. "Rules are you land on girl you go again, guy get guy then re spin, you have to kiss the guy/girl you get, French them for more than two minutes, In that closet!"
Tomoyo pointed to a walk in closet.
"Only downer, no more than ten minutes and bring proof"
"Proof?" Rika asked "How?"
"Proof on neck!" Meling said naughtily.
"Smeared makeup!" Chiharu said
"No! Anyone could smear their makeup!" Rika complained.
"All right proof on neck then!" Tomoyo said. She let go of the bottle and reseated herself next to Eriol.
"Go on Sakura…or did the Rules chicken you"
Sakura smirked a genuine smirk and flipped Tomoyo off before spinning.
It spun slowly…it slowed…and…finally…it…hit…TOMOYO.
"Gosh, Sak" Tomoyo said touching her chest with flatter "I didn't know you loved me so much!"
Everyone giggled and Sakura rolled her eyes pushing the bottle once more.
Tomoyo watched as she turned it again and saw Syaoron sitting across from her and prayed that it would land on him.
"If it does God I swear I won't deny Eriol tonight!!! Or even plot anymore about them!"
"SYAORON!!!"
Tomoyo's eyes pooped open with delight. "Delicious!" she squealed
"With some ones prayer I should say…" Eriol's voice said interrupting her chain of thoughts.
Tomoyo stuck her tongue out at him and watched Syaoron look at her.
……………………………………………………………………………………………
Syaoron was surprised when it landed on him. He looked at her and watched her open her eyes in surprise then quickly mask it by looking away and turned back with a smirk.
Syaoron stood and walked over to her. If they were going to satisfy this crew he'd make it look good because secretly he wished hard it'd land on him.
……………………………………………………………………………………………
Sakura breath caught as she watched him stroll over with an arrogant smile. Suspiciously she faces him and her breath caught as she felt his arms draw her into his arms. He carried her to the closet yet she could do nothing but hold his neck and stare at his features that made him stand out so well.
……………………………………………………………………………………………
Every man whistled as he swept her up and grinned slightly before they went inside the closet shutting the closet door.
"Kawaii!!!" Tomoyo shouted and went automatically stood to go to her purse.
"Where are you going?" Meling asked "Closet's this way!"
Tomoyo giggled at Meling and held up a remote control held screen.
"You didn't" Chiharu laughed.
"I did" Tomoyo replied and the girls gathered to watch the camera she snuck in earlier when no one was looking.
"Damn, you really did have this night planned good" Meling said unbelievably.
"Oh yeah, besides Ying and all the guys would hog the closet door."
"Hey Tomoyo" Rika asked
"How do we see anything if there's no light" Naoko asked
"Hello! New century!!! Night Vision!" Tomoyo rolled her eyes
"AHH!!" The girls giggled and crowded to watch "The" moment!
……………………………………………………………………………………………
"Syao" Sakura started "I…"
"Shh" Syaoron said softly, "Saku…"
His mouth did all the talking there was needed. He pinned her against the door and she felt his hard arousal on her thigh. She blushed and felt his tongue rub ion hers creating a rhythm.
Sakura moaned softly as her hands dug into his hair and trailed down his back, when it reached his bulge he grunted softly and broke free of the suffocating kiss they shared. Pushing her hands up he put them back around his neck and slipped his hands under her legs drawing them around his waist.
Sakura smiled al little at his urgency and pulled his head back up. Syaoron's eyes met with hers and his hand trailed under her tank top to cup a breast. He watched in wonderment as her eyes closed in pure heat.
His eyes dwindled to the necklace she wore.
"Sakura you wore it…"He whispered
"Why not" sakura whispered back rubbing on him." Aren't you wearing what I bought you as well?"
"Of course" Syaoron smiled He captured her lips for another drugging kiss as one hand explored her breast and the other braced her leg around his waist.
"Syao…" Sakura said gasping for breath.
He didn't answer but sucked lightly on her neck.
She moaned sexily and rubbed against him harder as she bit a spot for her on his neck and sucked as well.
"You're such a bad girl tonight aren't you, all heated on us men tonight" Syaoron said grunting.
Sakura romantic faze broke suddenly and she remembered everything.
"Bastard! Get off!" Sakura said
"Saku…" Syaoron said urgently "It wasn't meant as a…"
"Go to Hell…" sakura said with a smile before opening the door to a pile of guys.
……………………………………………………………………………………………
"I think he pissed her off," Meling said and all the girls looked up to see Sakura storm out. Everyone saw the hickies and Syaoron crawled out a little later to receive slaps from the guys.
Tomoyo smiled secretly and called the game off so they could do something else less provoking.
"Let's dance" Terry suggested and Grabbed Sakura's hand unexpectedly.
Tomoyo nodded. 'Why not? Those two were bound to lose it even more on the dance floor'
Tomoyo winked at all the girls and they returned it. Action two would be set off in motion now!
Tomoyo put on some slow music and they danced
"Three girls!" Tomoyo yelled
"All right!" The girls nodded except for Ying who was brushing off Sakura's scent with her own and sakura who was clueless to all this.
The girls surrounded Ying who finally pulled Syaoron into a dance and Sakura with Terry. Everyone scrunched the two couple up. Sakura avoided Syaoron's eyes the whole time though. Even if he was trying to make eye contact with her through the whole three dance even if he hadn't notice three songs played already.
Sakura looked at the couples and felt a jealous twitch as she saw Eriol with his arm protectively around Tomoyo who leaned on him. Rika and Kei swayed softly as well looking into each other eyes. Naoko and Takshin were busy kissing, and Meling and Dau Sz. were busy at each other's neck. Looking to the other side Chiharu and Takashi were talking softly with their forehead pressed together in a loving way. Adjusting her view again she saw Ying clinging to Syaoron but his eyes bore into hers, she looked away quickly.
"Ready girls?" Tomoyo whispered softly to Chiharu and Rika who were close
"Yeah!" they both said pulling a bit away from romantic dancing.
A fast beat song started up and the girls whooped as they started to dirty dance and Sakura smiled a little nervously at Terry but he seemed all into it. Syaoron was the exact replica as Ying went down and up on him but his eyes were on Sakura who was trying to leave but everyone blocked her.
Naoko and Takshin were the first to leave dancing in their own corner. Sakura glanced at terry but he pulled away suddenly.
"Hey I got to run!" Terry said to Tomoyo.
"Bye!" Tomoyo said "too bad you got to leave"
"I know" terry said sadly "Hey Sak, can I have your number by chance?"
Sakura noticed Syaoron's jaw twitch and she knew automatically he wouldn't approve.
"Of course" sakura smiled and wrote it for him "My cell" she said kissing his lips softly.
Who cares what Syaoron thought; it was her life!
"Thanks cutie, I'll see ya around" Terry whispered
Sakura nodded.
……………………………………………………………………………………………
Syaoron twitched as she did that and cursed underneath his breath, as he knew he had no authority over her. But did she have to do it like that to spite him that bad?
"Darling, I'm going to the Bathroom" Ying said softly. She slipped out of Syaoron's arm.
Tomoyo winked at Chiharu and she got the signal.
"Hey Sak, still think you the best at this!" Chiharu asked booty calling Takashi who gladly responded. Sakura noticed Tomoyo and Eriol had disappeared and Rika and Kei were making out. Meling and Dau Sz were also missing.
"Oh?" Sakura said raising a brow.
"Yea!" Chiharu said with a wink, "you and Syaoron may have been nest in High School but now you two are old!"
Takashi laughed agreeing.
Syaoron put a hand on Sakura's shoulder.
Sakura turned to see Syaoron's infamous smirk.
"Let's show them," Syaoron whispered
"Of course" Sakura grinned back "No one EVER challenges the champions at their own sport!"
Sakura and Syaoron moved as one as they dirty danced their way to the top. One minute Sakura was in front being provocative turning and twisting her body the next Syaoron had her withering in his arm from behind.
Chiharu smiled a little knowing that no one would ever be able to beat that couple at their own game, and that's why they should be together.
The rest of the night blurred out Sakura and Syaoron were having fun again and that was all that mattered until it was time to go home…that's when the cool blew up to rage…
"I'll give you a lift" Syaoron said softly to sakura who was bugging Tomoyo to drop her off at home even if Tomoyo and the girls were leaving tomorrow afternoon. Sakura and Syaoron had already said they're goodbyes and were headed out when Tomoyo confided in Sakura she'd like to be alone with Eriol for a few Hours.
Sakura gave him a look and shook her head "that's alright"
"Really, we live next door, it's no trouble!" Syaoron pushed.
Sakura knew it was raining badly outside and Syaoron was being nice but Ying would be in there as well.
"What bitch want to rid with my darling by yourself? No chance!" Ying laughed
That was it Sakura totally blew then.
Everything had been out of proportion when Ying was there and sakura was all but ready to remove her NOW!
Sakura yanked at her hair. "How dare you insult me, I wouldn't take your man even if my life depended on it"
Ying whimpered, " Syao, did you see that?"
He didn't reply or help Ying up he just stared at the rampaging Sakura in a trance.
Sakura cursed aloud and ran out of the house with nothing, she ran towards home stirring Syaoron senses.
He yanked Ying into the car and drove looking for her but she was nowhere in sight.
Syaoron cursed badly and continued to search as he made his way home.
"Sorry Syaoron…"Sakura said shivering as she hid between two cars.
……………………………………………………………………………………………
"Get out" Syaoron said Ying hopped out and looked back as he backed up his car.
"SYAO!" Ying cried pitifully. "Where are you going?"
"To look for Sakura!"
"Why? She yanked my hair!!" Ying wailed.
"Shut up Ying and Get inside! Sakura's afraid of Thunder!" Syaoron drove off without another word he drove straight next door to look for her.
……………………………………………………………………………………………
Sakura shivered slightly as she fell o her bed. Pulling the key chain out of under her pillow she stared at Syaoron holding her in the picture.
"Syao…I'm sorry…" Sakura whispered as she fell into a deep slumber shutting the distant roar of thunder out.
Sakura sighed as she saw an amber-eyed boy open his arms to envelop her in a warm hug "Syao…Aishiteru… I love you >" sakura sighed falling into the void Syaoron had created for only them.
……………………………………………………………………………………………
Syaoron didn't bother explaining as James open the door, he busted through the door bellowing Sakura's name.
Nadeshiko darted out of her study at the bellow and noticed Syaoron panicking face.
"What's wrong? Where's my baby did you do?" Nadeshiko asked frighteningly.
"Is she home?" Syaoron asked no one in particular.
"Yes" James said, "She said she was going up to sleep and to have no one disturb her."
"Hell" Syaoron swore and headed up opening her door he sighed in relief at her angelic face. Syaoron smiled swiftly and backed out of the room.
"Syao" she whispered and Syaoron paused. Sakura seemed to be dreaming but she still flung the blanket off revealing a curvy body that made him want to groan.
The shivering from her body awakened his sense and he immediately touched her forehead and flinched.
SHE WAS BURNING!
"What's wrong?" Nadeshiko asked from behind.
"She's running a fever!" Syaoron said pulling up a chair to her bed. "Get a cold cloth"
Nadeshiko gasped. "I'm getting the doctor"
"NO!" Syaoron yelled, "I caused this so I'll Take care of it!"
"My daughter…" Nadeshiko started and Syaoron looked up at her.
"Look, I will take care of her, I owe her this much so if you love her like you say you do you'll get a cold cloth now and call your family doctor for some medicine without his assistance I'll cure her."
"You're crazy!" Nadeshiko said suddenly
"I know" Syaoron said softly
Nadeshiko saw the grip Syaoron held her daughter's hand in and knew he was being very sincere at the moment.
She glanced on the floor and saw a key chain, picking it up she saw the gang and Sakura embracing Syaoron closely.
"Sakura…" Nadeshiko whispered and turned to face James ordering him about.
The fever went down by Morning but She still hadn't woken up yet causing Syaoron to stay up all night.
……………………………………………………………………………………………
Syaoron didn't care if Ying had left in a rage early this morning, for all he cared good riddance to another shrill woman. He looked at the fragile Girl he almost lost last night and thanked god for saving her over the night.
Everyone had already stopped by to say there goodbyes and Tomoyo had left a good warning that made Syaoron never want to leave Sakura's side.
"if she dies, I'll have you're head one way or another…" Tomoyo had whispered softly into his ear before dragging Eriol away.
Syaoron stared at the pink clock on the dresser table and knew by now all their friends were flying back to school.
Sighing he laid back. It'd be okay to have just a little shuteye right?
……………………………………………………………………………………………
Syaoron let go of Sakura's hand and she chased after him as he disappeared into the Cherry Blossoms… Sakura screamed his name but he wouldn't turn back he kept pointing, encouraging her to get through to the opening. When she got there she fell heard and fast…
Sakura gasped and noticed how parched her throat was.
She turned and saw Syaoron awaken,
"Saku…" Syaoron smiled softly
"Where…"
"In your room Saku…Everyone's already gone but don't worry…I'll get you some water" Syaoron quickly said as she pointed to her mouth.
……………………………………………………………………………………………
He was relieved. She'd woken up okay and thank god for that. He had been worried for her and now they and everyone else could rest assured that she was okay.
"Sakura" Syaoron whispered.
"Thank you…"a said suddenly
"What?"
"You…you guided me out of that dream, thank you"
"Er…okay…your welcome" Syaoron said awkwardly.
Sakura smiled slightly and rolled over. She closed her eyes again. "Sleepy…" She whispered.
"Go ahead, I'll watch you"
"No, go sleep too, you're tired, go home"
"NO!" Syaoron shook his head, "I'll be right here for you, Saku…you'll always find me here for you"
Sakura sighed a little and nodded reluctantly.
"Besides, I'll make it up Sakura, as soon as you're better we'll celebrate the birthdays we missed having with each other okay?"
"No" sakura mumbled.
"Yes, you promised three years ago…don't you remember? It doesn't matter if you don't cause I do so were doing it, besides we can give anything we want okay and we'll both have to accept alright?"
"Oh…alright" Sakura yawned, "Just leave me alone"
"All right, sweet dreams…" Syaoron said
"Yea" Sakura sighed holding back a yawn.
Sakura felt a happiness touch her as his lips made contact with her mouth slightly.
She sighed happily and cuddled into sleep. Syaoron also exhausted gave a small smile back and closed his eyes.

Outside the door Yelan and Nadeshiko smiled.
"Those two are definitely going to be a good couple if they'll stop being so stubborn": Yelan whispered
"I know, but I guess they'll figure it out last as always" Nadeshiko smiled softly.
"Nadeshiko you're pretty slow to you know" Yelan laughed
Nadeshiko smiled "then she must inherit from me"
"So when do you think they'll get together?" Nadeshiko asked
"Soon" Yelan pronounced "They're already to far in to back out now" Yelan smiled
"And when they do, I'll have to put a hand in to make their minds up."
"You're right, this needs a little meddling with on our parts"
"Oh yes" Yelan smirked. "It will…"
