Can't We Just get Along? Chapter ten
Eriol was to stay with us for the time that he was here. Tomoyo and Eriol made me ask Li if he would like to stay the night. So I did. He blushed a bit and accepted the offer. We stayed up and watched sappy christmas movies. And when I say sappy I mean sappy. They were so stupid. I think maybe 1 or 2 were funny. The others were supposed to be cheerful or sad I couldn't tell. Anyway, enough about the stupid movies we watched. As we watched the movies, when I say we I mean me and Li, Tomoyo and Eriol were, well, you get what I am trying to say right? I started giggling. Li looked at me puzzled. "Normal people come up for air. They don't need air. They have been like that for a little over half an hour now." I whispered, trying not to burst out laughing.
I don't know how I found that funny, I just did. It also hurt to watch them. Li put his arms around me and snuggled close. I felt at ease with him. I looked at him as he smiled. This was the way I wanted to stay. I leaned my head against his chest and he rested his head on mine. His heart was steadily beating. Meanwhile mine was racing. We were so comfortable we fell asleep.
The next morning I woke up and me and Li were still together. He was up before me, but didn't move or bothered to wake me up. "Hey." I said sleepily. "Hey hun." He replied. I was totally shocked at that. I started blushing. I guess he noticed because he snuggled me closer. "Sakura." He started. He was about to say something else but Tomoyo and Eriol woke up. Tomoyo looked from Li to me and smiled. Eriol had a grin on his face.
Me and Tomoyo made breakfast for the guys. "So, you and Li seemed really close last night and this morning." Tomoyo whispered. I nodded, blushing. She giggled. Eriol and Li were laughing in the other room. Tomoyo looked at Eriol, love in her eyes. I felt so happy for her. She had found someone she loved. I found someone I loved, but I didn't know if he truly loved me back.
After we were done eating we sat around for a bit, trying to decide on what to do. So for awhile we just sat around. Snuggling. Well, Tomoyo and Eriol were. Me and Li were apart. I started shivering. It was kind of cold in the room. Li noticed and pulled me towards him. Cuddling me to keep me warm. I started blushing again. Tomoyo and Eriol smiled at me.
We didn't really do anything during the day. Li decided to stay the night again. Tomoyo and Eriol slept in our room and Li and I slept in the living room. I was planning on sleeping on the floor, but somehow I ended up sleeping on the couch with Li. Just as I was about to fall asleep he kissed my cheek. "Sakura." He said. I looked at him. "Yea?" I asked. He smiled. He looked so nervous. "Sakura. I love you." He said. I was in total and utter shock. "L-Li..." I just looked at him. Tear started welling up in my eyes. "I love you too." I replied. He kissed me again. And I mean really kissed me. We started making out like a couple highschool students. We finally fell asleep.
The next morning Eriol and Li whent out together for a bit. Once they left I told Tomoyo about what Li had said to me. "Oh my god Sakura!" She screeched. She hugged me. I turned bright red. "Tomoyo, do you think it will last?" I asked. She nodded."Of course it will Sakura. If you guys really love each other than, yea." I Smiled than gave her a hug. "Thanks Tomoyo." I said, starting to cry. Not tears or sorrow, but tears of joy.
When the guys came back, Li hugged me, and Eriol hugged Tomoyo. We decided to take a walk to the park. It was kind of cold, but we dressed warm. Li held my hand as we walked around. Tomoyo and Eriol were behind us, and Tomoyo was giggling uncontrolably. Li looked back and turned around blushing. "Just ignore them Li." I whispered. He pulled me closer to him. I smiled even bigger. We all sat down on a bench, and Li and Eriol were whispering something. They seemed happy about what they were discussing.
When we got home, Li said he was going to sleep at his appartment. I was a bit upset, but not devestated. He kissed me goodnight and left. As soon as the door closed Eriol spoke up. "So, you guys are dating now, right?" I spun around. I hadn't actually though of that. "I don't know." I replied. "I guess." I was confused somehow. They started laughing at me. I just stared at them
