"You're planning something, don't lie to me you jerk."

"Who, ME? Really, Daidouji-san, you don't know me well. I would never plan something against you—"

"Oh that is such bull, don't give me that."

"Yes, yes, I'm a terrible liar aren't I?"

"A little bit, yeah. Worse than Sakura."

"Ouch, that bad?"

"Who do you think you're kidding, Hiiragizawa?"

"…True…"

Tomoyo ran a hand through her hair in the frustration Eriol had oh-so-graciously piled on her unintentionally or not. The simple thought of him at his current ignoring her irritated and annoyed her to no end. Why wasn't he trying anything? That was the whole point, to try stuff on each other and win this damn bet.

She had talked to him earlier, he'd been like this since class when she asked to work with him. He'd been ignoring her ever since, and she even talked to him, only increasing her frustration towards him further. Finally she approached him again.

"If you don't tell me why the hell you're ignoring me, I'm going to disembowel you with a blunt spoon. Made of wood. With splinters."

Eriol blinked up at her in shock and surprise from his lunch before laughing.

And he didn't stop. Tomoyo felt like tearing her hair out, and glared at Syaoran who was approaching with his own lunch tray and staring at the pair in confusion.

"I don't know what you're talking about," he had sobered and returned to his lunch, pointedly ignoring her.

"Oh you know what I'm talking about. All the ignoring, and the…the not talking, and all the ignoring…" she trailed off, hearing how ridiculous she sounded.

"Daidouji, what are you on?" demanded Syaoran, blinking up at her, "and why aren't you sharing?"

(A/N: my friend and I ask each other that at least 5 times aday)

"Li-kun, kindly shove your head up where the sun don't shine…scratch that, go flirt with Sakura-chan and don't talk to me."

Syaoran coughed uncomfortably, flushing, and walked away to find a new spot.

"Oo, burn. Nice though, couldn't have done better myself…actually I could've, but I won't steal your thunder."

"You shut up. I'm still mad at you."

"Why, what did I do?" he asked, puzzled and staring at her in feigned innocence, which she saw through immediately. He was enjoying this too much.

What she didn't know was she was playing right into his trap.

"I'm serious! Why haven't you tried anything? It's almost like you're not even taking this bet seriously! Even when the bet wasn't on, you would have tried something by now!"

Conveniently enough, she then noticed the attention she was drawing, and flushed under everyone's gaze.

Eriol noticed her embarassment and took her hand, dumping his finished lunch in the trash can and dragging her back to the now empty school hallway.

Now alone with him, Tomoyo opened her mouth to continue her rambling, but was cut off when he cut her off with a mind-numbing kiss. All coherent thoughts were driven out of her mind the moment their lips touched, and Tomoyo felt electricity course through her veins at his touch.

Unknown to her, something similar was happening to Eriol as he couldn't think properly. All that mattered now was him and her, in the middle of the abandoned hallway.

Their hands couldn't keep still as two pairs of arms moved around each others' bodies. One moment Tomoyo's hands were fingering his chest and his on her back, the next moment her hands were buried in his hair and his left arm was around her waist, right hand trailing under her shirt.

Eriol suddenly snapped out of his trance and concentrated at the task at hand; to make her lose this round, and he had to do it fast before he lost control again.

Tomoyo was on cloud nine, and moaned when he broke the kiss and trailed his lips across her jaw to her neck. She suddenly came back to her senses when she cried out in pain when he bit her none to gently. Not about to lose, she rolled so now he was pressed against the wall.

She thrust her tongue back into his mouth, and explored every contour, not allowing him to gain control again. He growled in frustration and grabbed her butt with one hand, the other hand under her shirt and bra, gripping the mound of flesh, causing her eyes to open and gasp, lifting her knee ever so gently against his now very painfully erect manhood.

It was like war as both took turns being in control. Frustrated, Eriol decided it was time to stop playing. He almost tore off her shirt and immediately began sucking her nipple through her bra. She gasped and finally let her self control slip and let him take over and do whatever he wanted to her, she didn't care.

He wasn't faring too well either, as he grasped onto his last ounce of control, although everything—his mind, his heart, and his crotch—was telling him to take her, and to take her now.

He let his control leave him for a split second—in that split second, her bra was off, and he bit her nipple.

This had to end before he lost that bit of control. He broke away and pressed his lips against her ear, as both panted for air.

"I win this round, sweet." He hissed, nipping her earlobe and tossing her her shirt, and taking her bra with him, putting it in his pocket. He backed away, allowing the topless Tomoyo to slide down the wall, face flushed and skin slightly coated in sweat.

Eriol allowed himself just one more moment to stare at her beauty and bent down to give her a final peck on the lips before standing up.

"You might want to cover yourself, lunch break will be over in 15 minutes, students should be coming in soon…" he trailed off, trying not to sound concerned, and he walked away, leaving her alone, still sitting against the wall, shirt in her hands.

After regaining her breath, she shakily got up and pulled on her shirt, ignoring the fact she now had no bra, and grabbed her jacket out of her locker to make it less noticeable.

Gazing at herself in the mirror in the bathroom, she smoothed out her hair and covered any marks he may have made during the little…session in the hallway. She finally touched her lips with two fingers, skin still tingling wherever he touched her…which was a lot of spots.

She shivered and exited the bathroom to go back to the cafeteria to find Sakura. She found her rather quickly, sitting across from Syaoran, the two deep in conversation.

Tomoyo smiled, seeing the pair laughing, and wondered when Syaoran would finally get the courage to ask her best friend out. She knew that Sakura was still single because she was waiting for him, but Tomoyo also knew that she wouldn't wait forever.

Deciding to let her friend alone, she left and headed back to the building to gather her things for her next class.

After Syaoran was chased away by Tomoyo, he started wandering aroun with his lunch tray in hand, trying to find a group of people he wouldn't mind talking to. All the people he would eat with had no space left, and all the tables left were the tables he knew his fan club sat.

He shuddered, seeing a table of girls waving at him and giggling in embarassment. He shook his head and looked away and was shocked to see a table of guys doing the same thing.

He sighed in defeat and decided to sit at the completely empty table before someone caught his eye.

"Hey, can I sit here?" he asked, trying to act nonchalant as her gaze turned his way, a little puzzled before turning flustered.

"Oh, Li-kun! Yeah, sure, of course, go ahead!" Sakura blushed, before slapping herself on the forehead. "Oh wait, no, I'm sorry Tomoyo's supposed to sit there…" she trailed off, embarassed and slightly disappointed. "Have you seen here, by the way?"

Syaoran tried to hide his own disappointment. "Oh yeah she went to go talk to Eriol, something about him ignoring her or something."

To his surprise, she started laughing. "If she's with Hiiragizawa-kun, then I guess she won't be sitting here. Go ahead then!" she said happily, giving Syaoran her mega-watt smile, trying her best to smother her giddiness to a bare minimum.

Syaoran nodded coolly, though inside, he was whooping and hollering with joy. He sat down almost all to quickly, slightly blushing and smiled at her, who smiled back.

"Li-kun, why are you so red? Do you feel okay?" she asked, concerned, which made him flush further.

"Oh, yes I'm fi—" her hand was soon pressed against his forehead.

"You do seem a little warm, do you want me to take you to the nurse?"

Syaoran smiled and started laughing, face color returning to normal. Sakura gazed at him, not believing she had actually made him laugh today…twice!

"You're a very interesting person, Kinomoto-san, I hope to get to know you better."

Sakura slightly flushed before smiling. "Please, call me Sakura, and I hope I can get to know you better too!" she immediately turned flustered and stared at her lap. "That is, if you don't mind…"

Syaoran chuckled, before lifting her chin to look him in the eye. "I would be honored to call you Sakura, and would be even more honored to get to know you better as well," he gave her a wink and a smile that made her secretly melt inside.

She couldn't help but nod dumbly and blush when she realized his hand was still under her chin and slowly moving up to brush some hair from her eyes and cup her cheek.

"Feel free to call me Syaoran too, but I'll warn you my fan club might try to kill you,"

Sakura blinked in confusion. "Hoe? Fan club? You have a fan club in the school?" she realized how rude that sounded. "Not that it's any shock or anything, you're a great person, it's just I didn't know people did that here…"

Syaoran kind of blushed when she called him a great person.

"It's no big deal…but you have one too, you didn't know that?" he was now genuinely shocked that she never noticed.

"…I do?" she asked in shock.

Syaoran laughed out loud again. "Of course you do! Why is it such a surprise to you that there are guys who like you?"

"I'm not surprised, ok just a little…but why would they like me?"

Syaoran stopped laughing and stared at her, totally stunned. "Are you kidding me? You and Tomoyo are tied for the most likeable girls in this school! You never knew that?"

Sakura flushed, and said nothing but shook her head embarassedly, prompting further laughter from Syaoran. "Mou! Don't laugh at me, I really don't, and you're lying to me!" she whined, trying to get him to stop teasing her.

"Yes you do" he said sagely, smothering his laughter at last. "Haven't you noticed…all the guys staring at you, the guys you seem to see everywhere cuz they're following you?"

Sakura's eyes widened. "So that's why I keep seeing the same group of guys following me home, in the hallway, and everywhere? I thought they just lived near me and have some of the same classes with me…but they're not in any of my classes…"

She put a finger on her chin, pondering further, deep in thought, and Syaoran chuckled, taking a sip of water and admiring how cute she was.

"I just…can't believe you never noticed!" he suddenly said, breaking her out of her chain of thought.

"Well…I can't believe you never told me!" she laughed back, both of them laughing and having a good time. Suddenly Syaoran stopped.

"Ne, Sakura…isn't that Daidouji heading back to the building?"

Sakura turned around and saw her best friend's back towards her, and walking back to the building, as Syaoran said.

"Hoe…yeah it is, but why's she going back alone?"

Syaoran and her looked at each other, before nodding and deciding to look for their best friends.

"I'll see you later, Syaoran-kun!"

Syaoran flushed hearing his name from her lips again, but shrugged it off. He grabbed her wrist before she ran off, and she turned to face him, confused.

"Hoe? Syaoran?"

He grinned and gave her a peck on the cheek. "See you in class…Sakura." He let her go and turned away to hide his blush from her and walked away to find his cousin.

Sakura felt her face burn as she was released and he walked away. She placed a hand on her cheek, surprised to feel it tingling from his touch. When she was sure he was out of earshot, she squealed and jumped in excitement before running off after Tomoyo.

Unknown to her, Syaoran heard the squeal and blushed further, smile on his face. He went to the cherry tree by the cafeteria and leaned against it, glancing up at the person in it.

"Have fun?"

"More than you can imagine. And you?"

"Ditto. I'm gonna tell her soon."

"Good for you."

"…Are you, Eriol?"

"…Hopefully…soon."

-X-

"TOMOYO CHANNN!"

"Hey Sakura, you're looking awfully happy!"

"Syaoran-kun just let me call him by his name and he's calling me Sakura!"

"WAIII! KAWAII!"

"Matte, there's more!"

"Nani?"

"HE KISSED ME ON THE CHEEK!"

Both girls squealed in unison, grabbing each others hands and jumping.

"How were you and Eriol?"

"…He won this round."

"Hoe? …You don't sound so disappointed."

"I know. It was…fantastic."

"OO details! Details!"
