Chapter 3- ---Weird Present

-----The Forest Near the Kinomoto House

- Oh, god, it is freezing cold. Arg, why did I ran away from home. Oh right the stupid wedding or should I say the search for a bride - Syaoran was trying as hard as he could to stay warm by using his fire that he made.

------- The Kinomoto house

Sakura saw a light outside in the wood, she wonders if that young man was out there in this cold windy weather. She changed into warmer clothes, which are some of the clothes Tomoyo made for her. She took her lamp and a scarf and head outside.

She was half way here, but the wind was so strong, and dust blow in her eyes making it hard for her to see also it was dark and it was even harder. When she go to where the light was coming from. Syaoran jump up in surprise to see her.

- Ah, what are you doing here, shouldn t you be back at the house and enjoying your nice food and nice, fancy, big, huge, warm room- Sakura frown at the tone of his voice it was not so nice at all.

- Oh, so I guess I won t be inviting you in my nice house, now would I - Just when Sakura was turning around and was about to walk away Syaoran grab her sleeve. Sakura turn around.

- No, please. I am sorry, it is just that I was in the cold and this wind is driving me crazy, please - Sakura nodded and Syaoran gather his things, put out the fire and follow Sakura back into her house.

As they walk to the Kinomoto s house hey battle to walk straight ahead trying not to fall for the wind was strong and was blowing too much dust.

When they finial reach there, Sakura lead him to a servant s secret hall, where servants can come and go with out the masters or mistress see them. Syaoran was confused that the fact she did not know who he was and that why was she leading him this way.

- Ah, what was you name again; I do not think I have caught that - Syaoran asked as he follows her up the stairs. - Also, why are you leading me through the servant corners and where are we headed -

Sakura had on her mean, serious look on her face. Whenever she thinks guys are like hitting on her she has that on. - You ask too much question you know, we heading up stairs, unless you want to run into my sluty a stepsister than that is fine. You will have to spend the night at my room, no one goes up here or visits me, but Tomoyo beside from that, no one will bother you. Oh, by the way I am Sakura Kimoto -

----- Syaoran s Thoughts

- Hm, how sad, she has only one friend and she have a stepmother this is like a fairy tale right out of a book. Also what is this strange present I sense, it is as if there is some kind of power licking around this hall. And as we go higher, higher, closer to her room the present feel stronger and stronger. But what is it -

--------Thoughts End

- Ah, here we are - Sakura step aside to let Syaoran in, - Look I know I am not to let strangers in my room but what is your name anyway and also do not go through my things or I will kill you with my bare hands. I mean it too - Syaoran was shock by the way she acted and he has never met any girls like her.

- Ok, ok, I will not go through you things. Also I am Syaoran, ah just Syaoran - Sakura nodded and went down stairs.

---------Syaoran s Thoughts

- She is no like any girl I have ever met, she is mean and serious looking like me. But she smiles a lot sometimes, only not when I'm around, that s for sure. God, most girls just go head over heels when they see me but Sakura she's different. I wonder why.

She also has a nice friendly look, but her eyes, they are so nice and innocent, yet so sad. I have seen her smile when she was with her friend, but in her eyes its all cloudy and fill with sadness.

- Ah, that present there it goes it's somewhere in this room. It is also very strong too. Arg, and I told her I would not go through her things. Hm, no harm of asking her about it.

------------Thoughts Ends

-----10 minutes later

Sakura has change into some new clothes and was holding was seem like food. Two bows of soups and some yummy warm food.

- Here, I has not eat anything today so I thought you might not too - Sakura gave Syaoran his food and he wolf them down every last one, as Sakura just sat there eating slowly.

- Oh, this is good. Who made this, I have never tasty anything so good, not at home - Syaoran finished eating at stared at Sakura as she stared out her window in a day dream. Syaoran saw how slow she was eating, while looking out of the window and how sad her eyes were.

- Ah, Sakura, earth to Sakura - He wave his hand in front of Sakura s face, which gave her a little jump and woke her up in her day dream.

- Oh, sorry, what did you said - Sakura continue to eat and looking down.

- oh, ah, I said this was good and I wanted to know who made it, oh yes, you have nice eyes but - Before Syaoran can finish Sakura place her food down and was in rage.

- WHAT, HEY WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO DO HUH, ARE YOU HITTING ON ME, CAUSE IF YOU ARE IT ISN T WORKING - Sakura shouted, her face all pale and sweaty

- HEY, YOU DON T HAVE TO YELLED. BESIDE YOU MIGHT HAVE WOKE THE PEOPLE UP FROM THEIR SLEEP. ALSO IT WAS JUST A COMPLMENT, I DIDN T MEAN NO HEARM. So there, man, you are no ordinary girl I have ever met.

Sakura was shock and she loved the word when a person tell her that she was not like any other girl, for she hated that. She bowed - I am sorry, I am not used to the fact that many people complimenting me, I apologies -

- Ah, no need. Beside. I bet many guys has gone head over heels cause of you looks. Is it annoying - Syaoran asked as Sakura finally finish her soup and food.

- What is - She asked.

- When men hit on you, I mean do you just go easy and go with them -

- No, I have turn them all down, they are only using me and HEY, why are you asking me all these questions - Syaoran finally shut up and they did not say anything for a while only glare at each other.

- You sleep on the floor and I'll sleep on my bed as always - Now Syaoran was shock. Never had a girl told him he have to sleep on the floor, cause he was the prince and even a girl, any girl would offer their bed to him cause he was so, good looking. But her, she is not like that.

- WHAT, I am the guest, WHY SHOULD I TAKE THE FLOOR - Syaoran shouted.

- Fine, I'll take the floor. Shee, mens - Sakura said to herself. - Oh yeah yelled as loud as you like the people down stairs can not hear you. Night your Highness - She took a bow. Which freak Syaoran out and she stared at him weirdly soon he notice she was just joking around.

Sakura blow out the light and slept quietly on the cold floor, but she had it worst.
