Chapter 5: The Many faces of Li Syaoran in 'It's raining… Tampons?'.
Blackmail, n. extortion by threat of exposure, money demanded in return for concealing a disgraceful secret, hush money.
But this time it was not money, it was co-operation.
The insolence and arrogance of that Goddamn bakka never ceases to amaze me, and I was so ready to give into my desires and strangle the heck out of the bastard. I can not believe that he didn't come after me last night! He made me walk all the way home, in high heels!
Just as I was snuggling deeper into Li's ever-so-comfy couch that I had no intention of moving from, my phone started singing that God-for-saken Christmas carol that I knew 'the devil' had put on.
"Damn you Li" I muttered somehow hoping he would here me.
"You wouldn't happen to be talking about yours truly would you my dear?" 'it' inquired smugly, laying across the back of the couch, scaring the absolute bejeepers out of me.
"You are 'the devil', Li Syaoran", I stated sitting up and trying to keep my composure, while my God-for-saken phone continued making it's God-for-saken racket. Damn I say God-for-saken a lot!
"Do you say that because of my devilish good looks?" His eyebrows, which I swear had a mind of their own and were so well shaped, raised suggestively. DAMMIT!
I shook my head as if in surrender, not wanting to say something I would regret.
I then grabbed the machine that would not cease its noise and threw it across the room and onto the wall. It smashed and fell to the floor in a pile of complicated electronic crap. Although I couldn't see Li I knew he was shocked.
I buried my head into the pillow. Just as I was about to thank the heavens for their kindness another blasted noise started.
"AAAARRRRGGGH!" I groaned pushing my head deeper into the pillow. "I am not getting that!"
I couldn't see him but I knew he was frowning. "IS THAT TOO HARD FOR YOU?" I screamed at him.
His puppy dog eyes came into work and wouldn't stop looking at me. Those damn puppy dog eyes! Why am I so goddamn angry today! I forced myself to look away but he dragged my chin back to look him straight in the eyes.
"Ah ah. Not this time I'm going to my room. If you need me I don't want to know about it!" I yelled running up the stairs and into my sanctuary.
Since there was no way that I was going to be sleeping in the same room with Li, he reluctantly let me have my own which I am unadmitantly grateful for. Throwing myself face-down on the bench I sailed off into a deep slumber.
Syaoran's p.o.v
I allowed a small huff to escape my mouth before I answered the phone in a flat tone.
"Moshi Moshi?"
"Is that anyway to speak to your mother?"
'Oh shit' My mind cursed. "Hello mother" I instantly switched to my most cheerful voice.
"How are you and Sakura going?" My mother inquired rudely. Translation: 'Have you got her pregnant yet?'.
"We're fine mother" I knew where this was going.
"Good. Well I wanted to come for a visit" 'And there she goes butting in again'. I knew my mother all too well and that this 'visit' wasn't just a 'visit'. This was a 'I just want to stay with you a few weeks and make sure that you guys are having sex so that you give me lots of grandchildren' kind of visit.
"Um mother I don't think that's a good idea at the moment, I mean Sakura is just getting settled into the house and…" I knew that she would insist anyway but this way I could at least tell Sakura that I tried to diswayed her. Hell! I'd tell her that anyway!
"Oh Nonsense, I'll be over tomorrow afternoon" And with that, the conversation ended.
And you wonder why she even bothers to ask me.
LaterI closed my eyes and braced myself for the eruption ahead. "YOU WHAT?"
"I tried to say no but you know how persuasive my mum is. Please just this once. I will never ask anything else from you again" I pleaded dropping onto my knees and grabbing her hands. I knew that that was a lie.
I put on the puppy dog eyes again.
"Fine. But only for a couple of nights." She gave in easier than I thought. I think I am starting to break the shell!
"Oh and there is one more thing"
"Enlighten me"
"She will expect us to sleep in the same room" I could see the anger burning in her eyes for she gave no answer.
"In the same bed" Her expression changed radically from anger to pure mortification and I think she could have ripped my head off with her own five hands.
"NO WAYY! I WILL NEVER SLEEP IN THE SAME BED AS YOU EVEN IF IT WERE TO SAVE MY OWN LIFE!" She screamed piercing the air and my eardrums.
"Please Kurrrraaaaa!" I pleaded, begging even harder, I hated to refuse my mother. "I will never ask anything from you again!"
"You just said that and broke your promise straight away!" Sakura, now sitting upright on her bed, slammed her hands down on the cushiony surface. It was looked so much less dramatic than she meant it to.
"Thank you my dear sweet little blossom!" I replied bubbly, bouncing up and giving her a quick peck on the cheek.
SakuraASSHOLE!
"I did not agree to anything Li Syaoran! Come back here!" I screamed after him. He simply skipped out of the room like a little girl on drugs!
My eye twitched. "Argh. Psychotic little penguin! Ah, who cares I'm tired"
SyaoranI slowly opened the door trying not to wake up the sleeping beauty that lay beyond the door. Looking around the already cluttered room, I tried to locate my missing item until my eyes stopped on her bed-side table. I crept as quietly as my feet would let me over to the table. I stopped and reached out to pick up the book. Yes I DO read…not just pornography!
My hands clamped around the hard cover and I brought it to my chest and hugged it very manly-like. I was about to turn around when I glanced a pink book that read 'Sakura's Diary- OPEN AT OWN RISK'. 'Gee I wonder what that is? And that is Sakura trying to be scary! OOHH! I am so TERRIFIED!
Now me, being a very considerate person that always respects girls' privacy, of course took the book, but not before Sakura's hand reached out and grabbed mine. I froze not turning to look at her.
"Don't take that Mr. Huggles, that's mine," The sleep-intoxicated Sakura slurred. She then tugged on my arm and squeezed me into hug. Then she relaxed back into her sleep.
So here I am, stuck in a death embrace with my sleeping wife-to-be with her diary clenched in my hands. As we were face to face I gently blew on her nose. My plan went as… planned and she lifted both her hands to wipe the invisible bug off her face. I mean who needs to hands to itch their nose! I took this opportunity to quickly wriggle away from her. Looking back at her before I walked out, she really was beautiful, so peaceful.
"NO!" She yelled, reaching out and punching the air, "That's my pizza".
I stood there in shook. 'Well that was unexpected'
LaterHe drove the dagger into her heart and it felt as if he were plunging it into his own. My glance dropped down to Sakura's diary. It was just sitting there begging for me to read it. 'Read me, Syaoran. READ ME!'
Giving into my temptations I picked up the book, but I never opened it, well intentionally anyway. I just couldn't bring myself to read all of Sakura's thoughts. It felt wrong. But don't tell Sakura I actually have feelings! I could always pretend that I've read it!
Just as I was about to put it down, half of the book slipped out of my hands. Red tainted water spurted out of the opening onto my crouch. She really wasn't joking when she said 'open at own risk'…
SakuraI stumbled down the stairs rubbing my eyes. 'I'm hungry'.
Suddenly I felt something hit me in the head. 'What the crap?' I turned around immediately awake. Looking to the ground I found that it the projectile seemed to be a tampon. Then suddenly a whole bunch.
"Over here my hunny bunch" And yet another tampon comes flying my way.
"What do you want monkey face?" I asked aggressively, turning to face him. "And where the hell are you getting them from?" This was a sight to see. Syaoran was sitting with his legs hanging over the side of the staircase holding a packet of tampons and the biggest grin on his face. If I wasn't about to break his neck I probably would have been mildly amused.
"Where do you think? Stop PMS-ing!" He smirked that little smirk that made me want to strangle him to death, or kiss him to death! ARGH!
"Here, I think you need this more than I do" And with that he threw a tampon at me and ran away laughing psychotically.
Just when I thought he was gone he popped his head back from around the hallway. "Oh and by the way I happened to stumble upon this on your bed-side table" I could hardly move when I saw that he pulled out my diary and if it weren't for every fibre of my being wanting to mutilate Li Syaoran I probably wouldn't have been able to.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH" My lungs nearly burst as I began chasing Li up the stairs.
He ran into his room locking the door after him. I was very persistent so I stayed there for about half an hour banging on the door and screaming my head off, until I knew that I was getting no where so I walked out of the house.
Staring up at Li's bedroom window it didn't look that high but I soon found out otherwise. Anyway I eventually got up there and I find Syaoran casually looking at me smirking. DAMN THAT FRICKING SMIRK!
"Where is it" I demanded stumbling into the room.
"Oh yeah! It's right over in my desk draw!" The sly dog replied pointing over to his desk.
I quickly rushed over and started searching his draw. "You're lying!" I accused pointing my finger at him.
He just stared at me unbelieving. "No shit…" He then pulled my diary from out of nowhere and waved it around.
"Okay. What do you want?" Was my blunt question.
"Not much. I just, want you to co-operate"
"What is that supposed to mean?" I asked slowly moving towards the bakka.
"Well for starters when my mum comes you have to play along and act like we're happy and sleep in the same bed as me"
I had a plan but it would require me to do something horrible.
"Well that's not going to be a problem since your so hot" I said seductively. 'Man I cannot believe I am doing this. He is going to see right through me'.
"I knew you'd come 'round" He played along. 'He's so blinded by his own ego that he can't see that I don't mean it. Or do I?'
I was now standing beside his bed so I put one of my fingers on his chest and started drawing circles. My backside came to rest gently on the bed and I was now close enough to grab the diary. Here came the worst of my plan, I had to distract him so I leaned down and kissed him full on the lips. My hand reached across slowly to get the diary so as to not raise suspicion and my other hand was nestled in his hair. It had to seem real didn't it?
A moan quickly escaped his lips as my tongue slid into his mouth. One inch away, and my hand clenched around the book.
I released him from my iron grip only to see him shocked laying under me. "Y-you used me" He whimpered looking hurt.
'Haha that look on his face is priceless'. "AWWE. Is poor wittle Wi going to cwy?" I asked in a baby voice. "At least now you have nothing to blackmail me with".
"Not necessarily" His expression was now incredibly smug.
'WHAT?' "WHAT!" I exclaimed mirroring my thoughts.
"Well I could always go to the media and tell them about our little engagement" He was looking very proud of himself, too proud.
"You wouldn't"
"I would" That damn smirk spread across his face.
"Fine" I gave up and my shoulders slumped.
"By the way" Syaoran said changing his tone. "I wouldn't have read your diary"
I was shocked. Li Syaoran was being sensitive. "That's good to no" I pushed out still not believing my ears.
He grinned, "Due to your little booby trap"
Stupid fricking Li Syaoran and his stupid fricking mood swings!
