BAM!
Touya looked up the stairs and sighed. Sakura has been knocking around ever since she reached home. What she was doing, he had no idea.
"Sakura! Hey Monster!" No response, as usual. Whenever he used the word 'Monster' on her, she would yell back almost immediately. No response this time, which made him even more worried.
Just then, the doorbell rang.
Shaking his head, Touya opened the door to find a pair of cold amber eyes staring back at him. "Is this Sakura Kinomoto's house?" his voice was just as cold as the un-blinking amber eyes.
"Yes, what can I do for you?" Touya asked, unnerved at the icy tone of this stranger.
"I need to speak to her. It's important" the man replied, his voice betraying no emotion.
"Now is really not the best time, you see.."
BAM! BAM! BAM!
Touya winced, and looked at the man, as though saying 'I told you so'. Surprisingly, all that man did was smirk, and brushed past him, striding up to the room.
Stunned, Touya just shook his head and looked after him. 'I hope he knows what he's doing…'

"You stupid baka! You're not that great you know? I can always find another place!" she kicked the coconut husk again!
"Die! You cold-hearted freak!" she glared at the coconut husk.
"You have some nice artistic skills, I see," an amused voice piped up from behind her. Sakura gasped and turned around. The "head" which supposedly belonged to the person she was suppose to "kill" was standing at her bedroom door, smirking.
"What are you doing here?" she stammered, trying to kick the coconut husk under her bed.
"I came to apologize, but… what's that you're hiding?" Syaoran walked over.
"Nothing!" Sakura stepped back, desperately trying to hide the coconut, which was stubbornly refusing to go underneath the bed.
"I see, so I suppose you were just ranting at nothing?" he took a glance around her room, raising his eyes at the coloured markers lying on her bed.
"Look! What I was doing was none of your business what-so-ever! You kicked me out, remember? And you're trespassing!" Sakura babbled on.
Still as calm as ever, Syaoran moved forward, he was almost reaching her now. With a sudden move, he reached behind her and grabbed the coconut husk.
Sakura's eyes widened in horror as he inspected the round thing, almost smiling at the brown dotted eyes she had drawn and choking as he read his name behind the husk.
"I see you're kinda mad."
Sakura blushed, trying to reach for the coconut.
"Well, let's go."
"Go?" Sakura blinked.
"Yes, to the beach, and find more coconuts for you to draw. I see I have to add art lessons to your rock-climbing ones," Syaoran reached out and grabbed Sakura's hands, literally dragging her across the room.
"I'm sorry Mr Kinomoto, but I'm gonna have to borrow Ms Kinomoto for a bit, if that's okay."
Touya nodded blankly as Sakura yelled.
"WHERE ARE YOU TAKING ME? I'LL GET YOU FOR THIS TOUYA!" her screams could be heard as Syaoran shoved her into his car.

Sakura sat, her eyes unblinking and staring ahead as Syaoran whistled and continued to drive on.
"You're going to have to talk to me soon, you know?" he said.
Sakura gave a "humpf" and continued staring out at the window.
"Here we are!" he said cheerily and unlocked the car doors, having to lock it earlier as Sakura kept opening it trying to get out.
"But isn't this the rock-climbing school?" Sakura stared.
"Ah… you finally spoke!"
Sakura went sullen again.
"Yes, it is. And you have a make- up lesson, right now." Syaoran folded his arms across his chest.
"I never said I was going back!"
"Well, you never quit in the first place!"
"You kicked me off!"
"I never said the exact words, did I?" Syaoran shrugged.
Syaoran sighed as Sakura gave a stubborn look, refusing to move from her seat.
"That's it!" Getting out of the car, he strode over to Sakura's side and pulled her out of the car. Then, seeing that she was still kicking and pulling away from him, he lifted her off the ground and carried her across the floor, barely noticing the looks that everyone else was giving him.
"Syaoran, what are you doing?" Heather ran over, giving him a look of shock.
"Get her changed. I'll meet the both of you out there in 15 minutes." Syaoran dropped Sakura down and went to change himself.
Heather gave Sakura a curious look.
"I hate him sometimes," came the reply as a pair of emerald eyes glared at the retreating back of Li Syaoran.

"Your left hand Kinimoto! Use your left!" Syaoran yelled from below.
Syaoran shook his head and watched as Sakura used her right hand and took the longer way up. Reaching the top, she took the flag and slowly lowered herself.
"I'm sorry… I can't… I'm gonna fall if I do that," Sakura bit her lips, handing her flag to Heather.
Syaoran thought for a moment before speaking. "I'm going to put you back to the yellow beginner's rocks. And from now, you'll have to train with me at the gym after class."
"WHAT?" Sakura yelled, causing Lauran who was reaching the top to look down in surprise and fall.
"You heard me, you can choose. Quit, or stay," Syaoran shifted his attention to Laura, whose face was flushed at her obvious mistake.
"Do not get distracted by what's happening around you, Laura. Always concentrate on reaching the top," he nodded at her as Laura climbed up once again.
Sakura glared at him and buckled herself up as stomped over to the yellow rocks.
"I'll show him… one day…," she muttered under her breath.

"What was that all about?" Tomoyo asked as the girls packed their bags.
"What was what?" Sakura looked at her friend, zipping her bag.
"You and Mr Freeze! He CARRIED you across! And you have yet to explain why you weren't home yesterday night!" Tomoyo looked expectantly at her friend.
"Oh! HIM! I broke his precious photo frame. The one his past fiancé gave him. So I spent the whole night in his office trying to piece it back. Only to have him yell at me this morning, where I went back home, drew his face on a coconut and kicked it."
"Erm, and he happened to come to my house, saw it, apologized and dragged me over here," Sakura shrugged.
"Wow! I didn't know he has a heart too," Tomoyo said sarcastically.
"He doesn't. He put me back to beginner's rocks. And I have to train with him later on, at the gym," Sakura made a face.
"Ouch, girl. Well, I got a date with Eriol. See ya later!" Tomoyo laughed as she jogged away.
"Some friend she is…," Sakura grumbled, walking towards the gym.
"Here goes…," she sighed.
