Chapter 9: For our Birthdays!

"Where is he?!" Touya demanded as he stalked upstairs.

Syaoron awoke with a groan and felt a sharp pain in his neck. He'd been leaning to one side for all-night and needed to readjust his position. Opening an eye to that holler he opened his eyes to a sleeping Brown-haired goddess.

He smiled softly as his eyes traced her face and edged it into his heart. He'd never seen her so at peace; when a tiny smile lit her lips and she whispered his name, his heart quickened immediately. Syaoron watched her snuggle deeper and stretch softly.

Leaning over he whispered to her.

"Sakura…"Syaoron watched as she smiled and mumbled softly hugging her pillow more tightly.

"Saku…" Syaoron tried again "sweetheart…it's time to get up…"

She grasped his neck and pulled him close as she snuggled next to him. She rubbed her face against his and opened her eyes.

Sakura dreamt she was walking in a field of cherry blossoms and was looking for someone. Suddenly she felt someone grab her hands and she turned suddenly to meet loving amber eyes.

"Syaoron…"

Sakura had remembered saying as he swept her into his arms and carried her for the rest of the way. She had smiled at him and snuggled into his shoulder as he whispered for her to open her eyes. She hadn't wanted to even though she knew he was taking her from her beautiful garden she just wanted to be enveloped in his embrace.

She heard him again and snuggled into his embrace farther. She opened her eyes to see her beloved…

SYAORON!

Sakura squeaked as she realized whom she held in real life as well.

"Syao...Syaoron?" she asked uncertainly.

Syaoron smiled a little and nodded.

"Saku? You remember what happened on Thursday ne?" Syaoron asked holding her hand.

She nodded and looked around her room clutching her cover to her chest. When her vision cleared and Syaoron was still there she blinked several more times.

"What happened?"

Syaoron smiled just a little at his "slow" goddess. He could swear he just asked if she remembered anything from the other night and here she was in the middle of the afternoon saying she remembered at one moment and lost it all the next.

"Sakura… are you saying you don't remember you're fever on Thursday night and you don't know this is Saturday afternoon?"

"Already?" Sakura gasped. "Wait…why are you here?"

She was so furious she'd forgotten to hold the covers any longer pointing a finger accusingly at him. Not that Syaoron minded the view of her sitting up pointing at him with a thin teddy (happened to be the one he bought for her at the store). It was just that it looked wrong with Syaoron's hand in hers, her teddy nearly off with Syaoron sitting next to her looked WAY out of proportion.

"You Fucking Chinese Gaki! Get off of my SISTER!" Touya's voice sounded behind them.

Snapping back to reality, Sakura quickly covered herself and pulled Syaoron to her.

Not ready for the tug from her, Syaoron fell flat on her causing even a bigger mess as his lips touched hers in front of Touya.

Regaining her composure after an awkward moment and embarrassment, Sakura rolled Syaoron over to the other side and put herself between Touya's rampage and Syaoron who had also snapped out of it.

"How dare you take advantage of her state you Bastard! You being her friend was one thing, sleeping with her in MY HOUSE are another!" Touya yelled.

Sakura threw herself in between the two fighting off Touya's grasping hands for Syaoron's neck.

"Stop it Touya! We didn't do any of that!"

"Whatever! You were knocked out! How would you know he didn't peel away what you barely wore and climbed…"

SLAP!

"Don't you EVER insult ME! Sakura shouted letting the covers go again. She pushed her back up to Syaoron who lightly placed his hands over her slim waist. (Totally wrong move)

"Don't you ever think Syaoron would do that to me!"

Sakura yelled louder. Tears brimmed in her eyes. "Besides if we were doing it I'd be the one to consent anything"

"Oh really?" Touya sneered "Let's see it then! What would you do huh? Without ME always protecting you?"

"I don't always need you to protect me! I can kiss whomever I choose and you can't stop me!" Sakura crossed her arms stubbornly.

"Try then! I'll stop you any chance I get!"

She turned to Syaoron and noticed he was looking at her confused at all this.

She wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him down on the bed.

Syaoron's eyes widened as he hadn't expected Sakura to do such a thing, but all thoughts fled him as soon as he felt her open her lips against his. He invaded twisting his tongue with hers and she moaned softly. Syaoron got pulled into a void with Sakura. In that void there was only him and her wrapped in an embrace to last lifetimes…

Until, they heard the bellow next to them…

"You damn Bastard!!!" Touya yelled lunging for Syaoron again.

"There!" Sakura breathed "was that proof enough for you onii-chan? Or would you like more?"

"Stop for god's sake Stop Touya!" Nadeshiko breathed heavily out.

She ran up the stairs when James had heard his bellow and went to warn the mistress.

Her view changed when she saw Syaoron in bed with Sakura. What threw her off was her daughter was barely wearing anything to cover herself up with.

"Okay, what's going on?" Nadeshiko asked

"I was proving to Touya that I could do anything I wanted to without his consent." Sakura concluded covering herself promptly again and forcing Syaoron to sit up as well.

Glaring at both of them Touya stalked out of the room muttering about murder. Nadeshiko sighed and followed suit with Kaho running beside her husband trying to get him into a better mood.

"You got Two Hours to get the hell out!" Touya's voice reached them.

"Well…" Syaoron started pushing his hair back a little. "What a Thanksgiving!"

Sakura nodded and wrapped the blanket around tighter with a small blush.

Syaoron turned away when she motioned with her finger to turn away.

Fifteen minutes later Sakura was dressed and sitting in his arms snuggling up next to him.

How she got there…

Flashback to fifteen minutes before

"Almost done!" Sakura yelled for the fifteenth time.

Syaoron had been asking for the past ten n minutes. Sakura cursed looking at her appearance and cursed herself even more for worrying.

'It's not like he's going to even notice you're alive!' Sakura chided herself after going through another no-no outfit.

"Done?" Syaoron echoed once more.

"All right!" Sakura snapped.

Pissed off she threw on the pink halter with a black slack. Adding on his cherry blossom necklace he got her on purpose.

"Kuso…" Sakura cursed. She really was trying to impress the damnable guy!

But in her heart she knew one thing was true! She wanted his breath to stop when he looked at her and she wanted him to smile that soft smile he used to have only for her and tell her how beautiful she was again.

BUT…

Bam back to reality…

Never will happen. With a sigh she walked out and met his eyes. She fell into their pools instantly…

……………………………………………………………………………………………

Syaoron smiled slightly as he felt her sigh contently and snuggle closer in his embrace. Putting his head on her head he smelled her sweet scent of her shampoo and he let the aroma wrap him up in a dream that may never be.

Syaoron flushed slightly as he remembered his dream… when he fell asleep with Sakura he had dreamed of a life with her, how happy they'd be, how she'd stand by the door and wait for him, how she'd smile her beautiful smile and hand him their first child…

"Syao…"

Syaoron looked down into her eyes.

" Ya know you can leave now…" Sakura whispered.

"I know, but…"

"I'm fine now…I'll be myself by tomorrow…"

Syaoron sighed and put his hand under her chin bringing her face to face him.

"Saku… You know I'll be there if you need me so don't hesitate to call"

Sakura nodded dumbly then opened her eyes a little naughtiness from within her emerald pools.

"Syao… So even if it was in the middle of the night?" She asked innocently.

Syaoron smiled a little "Sure…just not too often…"

"Okay every night" Sakura concluded and giggled.

Syaoron gave her a big hug and stood up with her slipping an arm under her legs. He laid her back in bed and pulled the covers up to her chin.

"Get some rest," he ordered.

"Okay doctor Syao!" Sakura said saluting him in a goofy manner.

He smiled a quick smile her way and lightly brushed his lips on hers.

……………………………………………………………………………………………

Sakura smirked beneath her smile and instantly put her arms around his neck and pulled him down lower. She traced her tongue against his lips gaining access; quickly she invaded. If he wanted to do this to her at least SHE'D do it right and oh so torture him!

Sakura wasn't surprised when the next second past and she was no longer in control of the raging hunger but her Syao instead.

……………………………………………………………………………………………

Syaoron groaned as she had immediately did that whirling him into another drugging rendezvous.

'Damn you Saku…Now…I'll never leave you…' Syaoron thought at the back of his mind.

Quickly he took over and was the one trailing her delicious neck inch by inch and giving her a "mark" to remember, of course she didn't mind but moan sexily into his ear and provoke him farther. Syaoron knew he was lost as soon as her hand brushed against his arousal.

……………………………………………………………………………………………

"You little Chinese GAKI!!! Brat " Touya yelled as he entered the room to see them making out ON THE BED.

Touya wasn't taking it anymore, he lunged for Syaoron.

Quickly dodging Syaoron ran out the door giving her a wink. Sakura giggled and looked up to see her fallen brother stand to his full size in front of her.

She shrugged at him and rolled over. Taking out a basket of yarn she took out a half done scarf she was knitting for Syao…three years ago. Sakura smiled slightly as she hadn't pulled out this for three years.

Touya sighed helplessly as he watched his sister ignore him and start knitting.

"You Kajuu is going to be the end of me with that Chinese Gaki…Better yet…you both are annoying. SO perfect for each other.

He left when Sakura looked up shooting daggers his way.

Sakura grumpily looked back at the scarf and instantly soften her eyes. She brought it up to her face and snuggled against it.

"Syao…"

……………………………………………………………………………………………

Syaoron picked up his cell phone for the Fifteenth time and Yelan sighed tiredly.

"Xaio-Lang, if you want to call her just do it!" Yelan said for the fifteenth time.

"Okay…" Syaoron answered but set the phone down again.

Yelan screeched "Xaio-Lang Li!"

He picked up his cell phone and left the living room heading to his room he dialed her cell number.

"Hello…" A soft voice touched his ear.

"Saku…"

……………………………………………………………………………………………

Sakura smiled with pleasure as it hadn't been a whole day yet and he was already calling her to check up already.

"Yes, Syao?" Sakura asked teasingly "I'm still in bed…"

"Okay…" Syaoron went quiet.

Sakura smiled as the pause was heard.

"About celebrating our birthday…"

"Yea…" Sakura said a little edgy. 'Is he backing out?' her mind asked

"I wanted to set the date for December 13th?"

Sakura sighed in relief and answered "or course, so was this phone call to ask what I want?"

"Kind of" Syaoron admitted

"… And the other half?" Sakura asked innocently.

"To check up on you," Syaoron admitted.

"Oh, surprise me!" Sakura said softly and another present popped into her mind. Something else she had to give to Syaoron.

"Saku…you there?" Syaoron asked

"Absolutely " Sakura said, "See you tomorrow at school."

"Yeah" Syaoron said softly

"Aishiteru… I love you " Sakura added after he hung up. "So much"

She put her cell phone down.

……………………………………………………………………………………………

Syaoron ran to the front door past his mother.

"Where are you…" Yelan hadn't finished when he answered with a quick grin.

"Christmas shopping", Syaoron replied and left.

Yelan smiled.

……………………………………………………………………………………………

Syaoron gave up!

"Women's are so damn hard to shop for" He muttered

"I feel ya," a man sitting next to him on the bench said. "But check out that Jewelry store, I cost a lot but it's worth it!"

"Really, what did you get?" Syaoron asked

"A ring…I'm going to marry her this time!" he replied

Syaoron nodded looking at the tiny store. "I think I will…"

Syaoron entered the store and a nice looking lady came up to him.

"May I help you?"

"Yes, I'm looking for something for…"

"Girlfriend?" she questioned

"Yeah" Syaoron answered. Usually they show you the best when you're shopping for someone dear.

"These" the lady pointed to a set and Syaoron instantly smiled. 'I'll take it"

He pulled out his credit card.

……………………………………………………………………………………………

Monday

December 13th

Syaoron honked his horn and waited for Sakura to come out. Sighing he turned back to the door for the third time and saw his angel come flying out of the door.

She wore a white sweater with a black skirt leaving her elbow length hair cascading down in ripples. She looked up and smiled carrying a bag.

"Morning Syao dear!" Sakura said slipping into the passenger seat.

"Morning" Syaoron mumbled shaking out of his trance to drive away.

Sakura's cell phone rang making both jump.

Sakura laughed a little and picked up her phone.

"Yeah?"

"Kajuu! Don't you let him touch you! I'll kick his ass personally if there's one piece of clothes missing from your body…"

Sakura hung up and smiled at Syaoron who had heard every word.

"anyways, what are we doing?"

Syaoron smiled and stopped at a red light. "Pool"

Sakura smiled a little "Syao…I don't know how…"

"I'll teach you!" Syaoron said eagerly.

"all right" sakura said a tiny smile lighting her face. "so do you want your present now or later?"

"Later" Syaoron said softly. He turned to look at her.

"Syao!" Sakura scowled as she turned his face back to the road. "I don't want to die"

"You don't want to die with me?" Syaoron asked cutely with sadness in his eyes.

"I don't want to die with you…yet" sakura added the last part softly and looked up when he put his hand in hers and smiled while driving.

"Don't worry…you don't have to die with me" Syaoron said teasingly but Sakura knew he hadn't heard the last part and was hurt. His face showed a smile but his voice had showed his hurt and he avoided looking at her again.

……………………………………………………………………………………………

Back 2 home

Nadeshiko rang Yelan's phone as soon as Sakura went out that door.

"Yes Nadeshiko?" Yelan answered excitedly.

"They just left" Nadeshiko whispered.

"Then why are you whispering?" Yelan questioned

"Because Touya's home and he's well…let's say…Feels quite strongly about their new found Togetherness"

"Ah…" Yelan answered in understanding.

"The present done?" Nadeshiko asked suddenly

"Of course! Why wouldn't it be?" Yelan laughed "Now all we need is a grand finale"

"All right" Nadeshiko laughed heartily. "But remember if they are at your house YOU fill me in on what happens!"

"And you remember to do the same in case they come there instead!"

"Done, now I got to go Touya's suspecting me "

"All right, hear from each other later tonight" Yelan concluded

"All right" Nadeshiko agreed and quickly hanged up as Touya entered her study.

Touya peeked into see his mother hard at work on packets of paper and closed the door. He walked away content that his mother was hard at work.

Nadeshiko glanced up and a smile played on her face a she hummed a lovely tune while finishing up on a few papers.

……………………………………………………………………………………………

"Syao!" Sakura pouted nicely.

Syaoron laughed and came around to her side when he broke the balls and it was her turn.

"You know I don't know how!" Sakura said crossing her arms.

"let me show you then beautiful" Syaoron whispered into her ear as he positioned himself behind her.

He enjoyed the scent of Sakura flowing into his senses and how she moved against him as he positioned her arms in the right way and leaned against her to teach her how to aim.

……………………………………………………………………………………………

Pure Torture.

That was the only thing Sakura could think about when he leaned against her and they fitted like a puzzle. Not only did that distract her but the fact that he leaned in on her and his scent filled her every breath. It wasn't that it smelled bad but it seduced her as did his every movement. This definitely was going to be a night to experience.

Sakura shivered slightly as he put his arms and hands over hers.

She caught each pause in his sexy voice and mumbled a reply to his answer.

……………………………………………………………………………………………

Syaoron smiled slightly as he noticed she was just as excited to be near him as he was to be near her. Although they haven't admitted it he felt the connection all to well.

……………………………………………………………………………………………

Sakura shot her solid ball and it went in.

Syaoron congratulated her and the game ended sooner than expected when Sakura won in a flash.

"I've taught the devil herself" Syaoron said

"Oh yeah…you've created a devil alright!" Sakura laughed. She stood next to Syaoron and held him softly.

Syaoron smiled a little and bent to capture her lips.

She didn't move away but pushed herself against him. Syaoron ignored the few whistles they got at other tables where people were shooting all he knew was that in that moment. Nothing mattered but Sakura…

……………………………………………………………………………………………

Sakura entered Syaoron's bedroom.

They decided to exchange gifts here and no one was home to see since Syaoron dismissed all the maids and servants.

"Let's see what we got!" Syaoron said closing the door behind him. He came and sat next to sakura cradling her to his chest. She obliged and looked up at him receiving a kiss she wanted on the lips.

"All right" Sakura said both pulled out gifts for the other and traded.

……………………………………………………………………………………………

Yelan giggled softly as dialed Nadeshiko's cell.

"They're there?" she answered

"Yep!"

"But why you're home" Nadeshiko pointed out.

"According to the servants I'm out playing mahjong tonight" Yelan informed her. "So I can look at things they do…" Yelan giggled like schoolgirl again

Nadeshiko followed suit and soon they were having a conversation of what to do.

……………………………………………………………………………………………

Syaoron motioned for sakura to open his gift first and She did. She looked up at him with a raised eyebrow then it broke into a smile as she reached over to hug him.

"Thank you…" Sakura whispered into his ear and took out the earrings.

They were 24-karat gold cherry blossom earrings with diamond centers.

A piece of paper fell out as well and Sakura picked it up with suspicion.

Syaoron…in confusion.

Sakura opened it to reveal a check.

Syaoron held his breath as he also saw what it was. He prayed extra hard that smile wouldn't leave Sakura's face…Too late it left…Syaoron cringed getting ready for her to burst.

Sakura laughed instead and poked him to open his.

Syaoron sighed for now and pulled out a scarf. He smiled as he recognize her handiwork.

"Thank you Saku…I appreciate it…" He sat on his sofa and noticed a check fell out of the middle of the scarf. It was written out to him for ten thousand.

"Saku…"

Sakura laughed " A debt repaid now that I have yours you take mine and we're even okay?"

Syaoron grumpily crossed his arms over his chest and stared unhappily away.

Sakura smiled and put in his earrings he got her. His frown didn't disappear.

"I know what you want!" Sakura pronounced He turned his head to look a t her but indicated nothing else.

Sakura smiled seductively and sat on his lap facing him. Slowly she steadied herself by bracing her arms on his chest and she slid each leg around his. Her skirt went up farther from mid thigh and Syaoron gaze wandered under.

Sakura bit her lips knowing she caught him. Slipping her Sweater off she revealed a Pink halter-top and toyed with his hair.

"Saku…" Syaoron started but she touched her fingertip to stop him from talking anymore.

She watched as he looked her up and down and she continued to play around with his hair and when he didn't react anymore she slipped her hands under his black jacket helping him take it off.

Syaoron captivated her eyes as he looked up and froze her eyes with his. His hand came up to hold her waist and she smiled a little taking her hands away she fell onto him pushing him into the cushion. He didn't mind she was light and he liked the weight since he was hardening underneath her.

……………………………………………………………………………………………

Sakura giggled as she pulled the last straw of her controlling this situation. She brushed up against his erection and kept doing it to provoke him.

Syaoron groaned and his hands slid under her halter to fondle a breast.

She moaned and put her lips to the pulse on his neck sexily. Slowly she sucked and Syaoron excitedly pushed up against her. He wanted to feel her wet for him. He wanted to drive himself in her long and hard, hearing her sexy moan calling only his name!

Moving his mouth away from her hair he sucked on her neck as well. If she wanted to leave her love bite he definitely would leave his.

She giggled feeling him do that but that didn't stop her from running her hands up and down his body teasingly getting closer to circling his erection.

Syaoron excitedly pressed against her and pushed her shirt farther up to reveal more. Sakura shivered slightly as she felt the cool air touch her stomach and gasped delightfully as he circled her nipple hardening it.

"What the hell…" sakura whispered to Syaoron and clamped her mouth on his as she fondled him personally and he gave in to touching her nipple.

Sakura broke away to breath. "No…Fair…You're not…Touching me…"

"I am" Syaoron informed

"not where…I …need…it" Sakura breathed gaspingly.

Sakura collapsed against him when he applied pressure against the part she wanted the most. He pushed lightly against her opening and she gasped wanting more and more.

"Syao…I need"

"I know sweetheart" Syaoron whispered and watched as the pleasure hit her face by waves as he applied pressure again and again.

………………………………………………………………………………………..

Yelan didn't want to bust in no but she'd promise Nadeshiko she'd stop them if they went any farther than needed. Taking a deep breath she bust in.

……………………………………………………………………………………..

"Syaoron!" Yelan said announcing herself that way and pretended to turn away when sakura jumped off of him and sat beside him readjusting clothes and Syaoron threw a pillow over his erection.

"MY! I wasn't expecting this!" Yelan said shakily.

Sowwie it looks like they'll never get to doing it Author's sympathy!>

"Ma!" Syaoron said embarrassingly.

"It's a good thing I walked in or else…who knows what else what you two would have done!" Yelan chided and stared at them.

Sakura picked up her sweater and jacket.

"well I got to run Syao, see ya tomorrow okay?" Grabbing her presents she left the room bowing to Yelan embarrassingly.

Yelan stared at Syaoron who had a look of disbelief on his face as she left him there. Recovering after he heard the door close downstairs he launched onto his mother.

"Niang! How could you ruin my Birthday present?!"

"Birthday? You're birthday passed Months ago!" Yelan declared with triumph.

"Mom I know you knew about his! I told you personally that we were celebrating our belated BIRTHDAYS and you Deliberately put that check in Sakura's present to get her pissed at me right?"

Yelan looked shocked at his accusations. "Xaio-Lang! How could you…even think! Me? you're accusing me?" Yelan acted out.

Syaoron sighed massaging his head and got up to go to the bathroom taking the phone with him and shut the door.

"Xaio-Lang that was so very rude! To accuse your mother of such a deed and then to walk away without being excused! I could swear I raised you proper! Xaio-Lang! Xaio-Lang do you hear me?" Yelan smiled as he didn't answer.

"I see! Once you're done masturbating in there, clean it up understood!"

"I'm not!" Syaoron's irritated yell reached her ears. "I know you are!" Yelan said promptly but he didn't answer instead he laughed.

Yelan dialed Nadeshiko's number as quick as lighting as soon as he heard another voice in the bathroom although distorted.

"She came home!" Nadeshiko said

"I know! They were doing that "stuff" when I walked in and she left flushed!" Yelan laughed.

"Really?"

"Yep, so what is she doing?"

"She's on the phone!" Nadeshiko said softly giggling.

"With Syaoron! I know so, he just shut himself in the bathroom. They're going to masturbate and dirty talk to each other!"

Yelan concluded

"How do you know?" Nadeshiko asked

"because! They "need" it at the moment

"Need what?"

"IT!" Yelan laughed.

"OH!" Nadeshiko dawned on the subject finally.

"You are slow!" Yelan laughed

"Hey tap in on their conversation!" Nadeshiko ordered

"Can't, there on their cell"

"Damn!" they both cursed and laughed.

"It's only a matter of time now…" Nadeshiko said with a smile

"Oh yeah…" Yelan smiled

"We're the best mothers" Nadeshiko said confidently

"Exactly!" Yelan said "And our children deserve the BEST"

"Yes they do!" Nadeshiko laughed
