It Just Takes Three Weeks

Summary: Kinomoto Sakura, an average girl who has many friends, but looks like a nerd. Li Syaoran, a popular guy who could have any girl he wanted, except one particular girl,

Kinomoto Sakura. They hate each other to bits. What could be worse than going to school together? Sakura thought nothing, but then he started to become her neighbour! But

after a long field trip, everything changes, Sakura's appearance, Syaoran's attitude, even… their feelings towards each other?

Chapter 21: Back home

"Oh my God…Are you really that stupid? Listen, if I help her now and pretend to be her friend, I can always interrupt her and Li together, so then you can swoop in and steal him

away, and when I'm finished with her, I'll just throw her away. She is quite cute, you know." Tasaki quickly jumped on her brother for a hug.

"Thank you for helping me so much!"

Normal POV

During the next few days, the last days of the trip, Syaoran had been constantly avoiding Sakura. But Sakura hadn't really been noticing, since she's been hanging around with

Sasaki all the time nearly. Today was time to go back home. Syaoran dreaded this, as he has to sit next to her on the way back.

#Coach#

Syaoran's POV

I jumped in the coach as I looked around for the usual seats I had with Sakura. I finally spotted her, but when I went towards her, Maekwondo Sasaki was there. In my seat. What
the…!

"Hey, what you doing in my seat?" I stared coldly at Maekwondo.

"I told him to sit here." Sakura spoke up. I stared at her bewildered.

"What? Don't you know what he did to you? He was behind that sandwich plan!" I felt like screaming.

"I'm sorry, maybe I should sit back in my original place. I knew I should have never sat here…" He started to get up, but Sakura held him back with her arm.

"You're not going anywhere. Look Syaoran, he's a nice person, it was only Tasaki who planned it out. He's innocent!" I finally see what's happened. I looked at Maekwondo,

only to see him smirk. I'm right. He's lying. Trying to get between me and Sakura.

"I'm really sorry. I thought you should sit next to Tasaki because you two are going out." Damn! What has Tasaki been saying? Obviously she hadn't told anyone.

"Look, we're not…" I was cut off by him.

"Look, she's there." He pointed to a seat. Tasaki was looking at them, with her sickly sweet smile. I wanted to throw up right here, right now. It's obvious Maekwondo wants

Sakura to not find out I'm not going out with Tasaki. I sighed and stared all over the coach. No seats vacant…Do I really have to seat next to Tasaki?

"Okay people, settle down, we're moving now. Li! Sit down at once!" I sighed and was about to sit next to Tasaki, when I remembered Dai-ran. Dai-ran! I looked at the back,

and there he was. Sitting by himself…Yes! A vacant seat was next to him! I quickly ran to the back, noticing the two Maekwondos' reactions. Haha…their plan backfired.

"Hey, Syaoran!" I sat down, and buckled my seatbelt. Thank God I didn't have to sit next to Tasaki. It's a 3-4 hour trip. I leaned back and relaxed. This is heaven…

#School#

I yawned and stretched as I got out of the coach. Many parents were there, collecting people I suppose.

"Hey Dai-ran. You coming home with me?" Dai-ran nodded.

"You've moved, haven't you? I'd like to see mother and our four annoying sisters." I chuckled.

"Hey, I should introduce Sakura to mother, shouldn't I? She says she always has to check our girlfriends. To see if they are good enough for us or not. That's a bit harsh." I

nodded slightly, ignoring the pain in my heart. Even if me and Sakura ended up together, mother wouldn't allow us to be together. One of our family rules, never betray another

family member. So no dating ex-girlfriends. Even if they went out 10 years ago, they still can't go out with them.

"Hey Sakura! Wanna walk home with us? I've gotta introduce you to my mother." Sakura slightly hesitated but agreed.

"Will you be okay by yourself?" she was talking to Maekwondo.

"I was thinking that maybe I could walk you home." I turned to Dai-ran and whispered to him.

"You better look out for him. He has a thing for Sakura." Dai-ran gently nodded.

"Hey. Maekwondo!" He turned to me. I dragged Sakura away from him, and pushed her towards Dai-ran.

"I think her boyfriend should her home. So you don't have to bother." I hinted towards Sakura, who was in Dai-ran's arms (I pushed her), and Dai-ran. I saw a fleck of anger in

his eyes for a second. But then it disappeared, and he calmly spoke.

"Oh, well maybe next time." He walked off. Victory for me!

"Come on, let's go home." I walked off with Sakura and Dai-ran following closely behind.

#Home#

"Oh yeah, you never told me where you live Sakura."

"I'm your neighbour."

"Really? We can meet each other easily then!" I turned my key in the lock, and walked in. I walked over to the living room, seeing my mother and four sisters having dinner. They

all stared at me.

"Hey mother."

"Syaoran, you're back." She said with no enthusiasm.

"Syaoran! You're home!" four cheery voices exclaimed, and they immediately hugged me. I quickly pushed them away.

"Listen, we've got visitors." Then at the same time, Dai-ran and Sakura came in. The four girls squealed. This is going to be very long.

#Syaoran's room#

I sighed as my sisters shouted for the millionth time. I heard the door closing. Sakura must be gone. I glanced at the clock. 9pm. 4 hours! I can't believe it! For 4 hours she was

downstairs with my sisters ogling over her! I walked to my window, and saw her enter her room. I sighed yet again. I'll never get her…Just then, someone knocked. I quickly shut

the curtains and turned around just in time to see Dai-ran.

"Hey Syaoran."

"Hey."

"Do you know where my room is?"

"The room on the right of this room."

"Thanks. Goodnight." He walked out of the room. I went back to the window, and saw the lights shut off. She must have gone to bed. I looked at my bed, and saw a huge

suitcase. Gotta go unpack.

Dai-ran's POV

I walked into my so called room. Woah…it's so…plain. The ceiling, white. The walls, white, white, and even white again! The only things which weren't white in the room was the

bed, which was kind of beige, one mahogany desk, and a set of drawers. Even the wardrobe's white! On top of the desk was a stereo and a large TV. The set of drawers had a

lamp on top, and a jar of stationery. The metal handles on the drawers were charcoal black and quite heavy. Cool, I'll use them as weights. There was one window in the room,

which was directly above the set of drawers. I sighed. I've gotta buy some posters and stuff to decorate the walls. Okay, now for some unpacking. I took off my jacket, and was

about to hang it in the wardrobe when I felt something inside it. I took it out. A black tape. Oh yeah, the one I found in Syaoran and Sakura's tent. I turned around to the stereo. I

put the tape in and pressed the play button.


So sorry for the lateness of this chapter! My parents hid my laptop from me so I couldn't post this chapter on. But better late than never, right? I don't know when I'll post the next

chapter, so I'm not making any promises! But I'll try to post it within a month's time. Anyways, see ya till the next chapter!
