TammiChapter 3: More Adjacent
After a week have passed. Things are starting to get less complicated. Sakura, a 16-year-old girl, is less mean than before towards Syaoran, a year older than her.
"HEEEEY!" Sakura yelled as she digs thru her closet. "WHERE ARE MY UNIFORMS!" 'Grrrr!' She grunted in her head. 'Just when I woke up early and now it's gonna be my stupid uniforms that will keep my tardy record stable!' "I'm going to be late again! WHERE ARE MY UNIFORMS!" she yelled louder.
'Haah. What a spoiled brat.' Syaoran thought as he opened her bedroom door without knocking.
She yelled the third time when she turned around from the closet, "WHERE ARE MY UNIFORMS!"
"Here you go, miss." He simply responded. He was already wearing his uniform.
"Finally!" she exclaimed then took her clothes from his hands. "Why do you have these anyways?"
"The maids just got finished with the ironing just a while ago, miss." He answered.
"I see." She muttered. "Well… Of you go now, Syao. I have to dress up you know."
"Right away, miss." He snapped and then left the room.
She watched him leave as he closes her bedroom door.
…………………………………………………… At lunch break
"Hey Sakura…" a female voice was heard.
"Yeah?" she replied.
"When was the last time you have heard from Daidouji?"
"Well Rika… I'm sorry to say this but… The last phone call I've received from Tomoyo was 4 months ago."
"That's so sad to hear."
"Yeah… And you two were best friends since grade 4, right?" a girl with long hair and big round glasses told Sakura.
"Yes Naoko… We were." Sakura frowned. "Anyways… Why is Chiharu absent?"
"She called me yesterday, he said she has a flu." Rika answered.
"Really?" Sakura was a bit surprised.
"Yes, that is correct." A male voice butt in and sat with them in the girls' table.
"Wow Yamazaki! For once you said something that is true!" Naoko exclaimed.
"Hehehe! Yamazaki was always a bluffer since grade 4!" Rika chuckled.
"Really? Yamazaki was like that?" another male from behind Yamazaki spoke.
"Yup!" Sakura snapped at him.
He raised an eyebrow.
"Say, you're name is Li, right?" Naoko looked at the man behind Yamazaki.
He nodded.
Rika smiled then asked him, "How are you related with our dearest Sakura here?"
Syaoran blushed a tiny bit then glanced at Sakura. He was afraid he could give them the wrong answer. He knew she doesn't want people to know that she has a bodyguard.
"Oh! We're cousins!" Sakura snapped.
"You are?" Rika asked.
"Ehe ehehe ehe? Second cousins.." Sakura lied.
"But… Is that possible? Li here is a pure Chinese and you, Sakura, is a pure Japanese, right?" Naoko was curious with twinkling eyes.
"Of course it is!" Yamazaki responded. "You know I've read something in one of the history books that Chinese people and Japanese people were at the same race long long time ago."
Naoko's smile faded, "TAKASHI! It's been 6 years! You can't fool us anymore! We're totally not that naïve like we had been when we were 10!"
"That's true, Yamazaki." Sakura simply said.
"But good thing Chiharu isn't here." Rika smiled at him.
"Or you'll be bullied again." Sakura began to chuckle. "Well guys… I'll be off for a minute, ok?"
"Right!" Rika and Naoko replied.
"C'mon Syaoran." She uttered then grasped his left elbow.
As soon as they have gotten far, Sakura started,
"We'll be second cousins, ok?"
"But, miss." Syaoran snapped, "I have told the principal that I'm here in this school to watch over you."
"Really? You told that to him?"
"Yes, miss. I did. He told me that he understands the arrangement and I'll be excused whenever you are in an emergency."
"Ohhhh… So what will it be then?"
"Miss Sakura, please don't mind me stating my opinion. I reckon, miss, that you just have to tell them the truth."
"Is that necessary?"
"Well, miss, I guess it's better that way than to hide the real identity."
"I guess…" she muttered. "O-ok… I'll tell them."
……………………………………………………
Sakura did tell her friends, including the teachers. To her surprise, the teachers already knew about the arrangement.
…………………………………………………… After dismissal
"SYAORAAAAAAAN!" Sakura yelled while running towards the school gate where her bodyguard had waited.
Confusion plastered in his face. 'What the?'
"SYAORAAAAAN!" She jumped on to him almost making him topple.
"What's going on with you?" He exclaimed at her. 'I thought she hated me, didn't she?'
"I just got a C+ in Math!" She grinned happily as she stretched out her right hand to show him her test paper, "See?"
"HAH!" He snapped as she puts her down, "a C?"
"Yeah! I passed! Am I not good?" She smiled all the way.
"Ahh… if a C+ appeared in my Math test, I should have been grieving by now, not celebrating." He teased.
"HEY! WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THAT?" she bellowed with tight fists.
"Well Sakura…" he said when they began to walk and he took grasp of her right palm. They walked holding hands, "a C+ may be a passing grade… But c'mon? To a math test, and you got a C? That may be a big loss when you can EASILY get an A."
"It's not that easy!" she cried as she disjoined their hands.
"Hahahaha!" He laughed with her reaction. He was just teasing her all along.
After a lot of yelling, laughing and physical bullying made by Sakura, they finally arrived at their house.
"Daddyyyyyyyyy!" She yelled as soon as she entered the house.
'Haha! Spoiled brat!' He thought.
"Oh! You're in trouble now! I'm calling my dad! Daddyyyy!" she mocked.
He just smiled at her.
"GRRRR!" she grunted. "DADDYYYYY!"
"Sorry, miss, I believe your father is not home."
"Oh! Then your punishment will just have to wait until tonight, then. Celebrate while you still can!" she exclaimed.
"Why? Is spoiled little bratty girl telling her daddy?" he teased.
"YOU BET!"
"Hahaha! I can even accompany you to him!" he declared.
"Grrrr!" she grunted. "Get out of my face!"
'It's fun just teasing her! Hahaha!' He thought as he laughed all the way to his room.
………………………………………………… After a week
One late afternoon, Sakura friskily stomped down the stairs then entered the living room. The TV was turned on, but she ignored it. She just walked carelessly towards the front door.
"Hey! Where are you going?" Syaoran was sitting on the couch and now standing up, glaring at Sakura.
"None of your business." She plainly answered.
"Is that so?" he sarcastically said to her.
"Yeah! And don't follow me!" she declared.
"Fine by me..!" he uttered then returned to his TV experience.
……………………………………………………
Sakura happily entered a computer shop. It was an air-conditioned room. But it isn't that cold, just cool. The place was sort of dark but you can still see the classiness of the big room. There were estimating 30 computers. The seats were large black couches. It is a 'class A' computer shop. She cheerfully walked thru the ways and looked at the PC's one by one. Half of them were playing Counterstrike.
"Hey? Isn't that game a bit old?" she mentioned to one of the players.
"Yeah… probably… But that doesn't mean it's not fun anymore." The player said while looking at his monitor. After that, he faced Sakura, "Right?"
"OH! IT'S YOU ERIOL!" She bellowed to her friend.
"Who else?" he smirked.
"Hey! I wanna play too!" she exclaimed then approached the counter. "Counterstrike." She uttered the name of the game.
"Hmm…" The lady mumbled. "PC number 17."
She looked over to the said PC. The whole table was available. There are 4 computers in each table and it was symmetrically cubed.
(A/N: I didn't know how to explain it. PC 16 and PC 17 are beside each other; and PC 18 and 19 are also beside each other- their counterparts are 16 and 17.
She sat on the empty black couch with green pillows on it. She started playing and joined Eriol- Terrorists.
After a long while, she was starting to win and began shouting in the room "You are no match for me! You're going down!" Eriol was happy with her being so energetic. He takes the lead while she comes in second.
Soon, Eriol grew sleepy with the easy game in his hands that made Sakura take the lead. She yelled simultaneously "Show me what you got!" "Stop hiding!" "Stop running away!" She was invincible and was totally sucked into the game.
After for another long while, a new player was added- Counter Terrorist.
'Haha! Another victim to pulverize!' She cried in her head. She was extremely energetic. She had been playing 2 and half hours now.
'AaAahh' her character made a funny noise and died.
"WHAT THE?" it was her first time to get killed since the last 2 hours. "How dare you break my simultaneous wins?" she muttered. "Anyways… It's just one kill. I'm sure he can't do it again. I'm the queen of Counterstrike!" she said to her self.
The next game…
'AaAahh' her character died again.
Frustration plastered on her face, 'No way! I'm sure he can't do it 3 times. Because I won't let him!' She shouted in her mind.
'AaAahh' 'Hey! Who's doing this to me?' She looked up to the upper left of the monitor; her killer's code name was 'S.I.A.S.B.' 'I'm positive that he was the one who gave me my first two losses.' She thought. Fear came running in her veins. 'I think I should just avoid him so that I won't get killed.'
She tried to avoid him whenever his character rose into view. She attempted to run away, but as time passed by, she realized, 'I shouldn't be running! I'll face him; show him what I'm made of! Watch out S.I.A.S.B.! Whatever your code name means, I'm sure it is as weepy as you!'
She took a deep breath and held on to the keyboard tight. She won't let him win this time. She eagerly waited for the next game to start. As soon as it did, she controlled her character to run to the Counter Terrorist's base to gain the victory. After 10 seconds,
'AaAahh' her character got killed. 'By who? By who?' she was curious. She quickly looked to see who it is. Then the code name appeared in her view, 'S.I.A.S.B.'
"I won't let you win again!" she cried out.
A frisky whispery chuckle was heard nearby but she ignored it. Her attention was all in the game. 'I'm trying my best!' she thought and got really inclined to it. For a while,
'AaAahh' "Grrrr!" she grunted. She didn't even last 5 minutes in the field. She held on to her keyboard tight,
'AaAahh'
'AaAahh'
'AaAahh'
'AaAahh'
'AaAahh'
'AaAahh'
'AaAahh'
"NOOOO!" she cried out. After that, she suddenly got kicked out from the server.
(A/N: I made up a few stuff. It's my fic anyways. Teehee!
"Hey?" she exclaimed aback. She examined the screen to see what went wrong when suddenly, a black rectangular box appeared, almost taking up all the screen space.
It says 'HERE COMES A CHALLENGER. ACCEPT? DECLINE?'. Then she looked to see who is the creator, 'S.I.A.S.B.'
Her blood boiled when she read the peculiar code name. Without further ado, she clicked 'ACCEPT'
Then the game brought her to a new place. She was going to be playing one on one with the user of S.I.A.S.B.. The first round began… It took her a lot of effort to do all the stunts and techniques she knew just to survive in the game.
'AaAahh' a funny noise was made by the character killed- S.I.A.S.B..
"Woohoo!" She cheered. 'Finally! My crown is back!' She thought to her self. She laughed all the way until…
'AaAahh' her character died. 'Don't worry. Just a scratch.' She thought. Then for the next hour,
'AaAahh'
'AaAahh'
'AaAahh'
'AaAahh'
'AaAahh'
'AaAahh'
'AaAahh' S.I.A.S.B. shot Queen Sakura
"Grrrr!" she grunted. She couldn't take it anymore. "WHO AMONG YOU IS S.I.A.S.B.?" she shouted in the room. She looked around, looking for a response. But no one did it. Nobody raised his or her hand. Then she heard someone laughing just nearby. She gaped up to the one seated in PC 19- her computer's counterpart. 'Oh that tremendous laughter…'
"SYAORAN!" she shouted in his amber-eyed face.
He just laughed louder that made her angrier.
……………………………………………………
Pretty soon, the dark night sky was above the both of them while they walk side by side at the sidewalk. He was still laughing a bit while she just walked with a vain popped in hear head.
Before they knew it, they reached their house and they headed for her bedroom.
Syaoran was standing near the bed when Sakura approached him, she told him,
"I never knew you were there the whole time…"
He just smiled at her, still standing straight in front of her and behind him was her bed.
"Anyways… What does S.I.A.S.B. means?" she asked him.
An evil mocking smile grew in his handsome face as he answered, "Sakura Is A Spoiled Brat."
"WHAAAAAAT!" it made her go ballistic. She pushed him then knocked him over to the bed. He landed on it then she quickly jumped on top of him while smashing him with the pillow. She smashed him harder and harder until she noticed his face- his eyes were shut tight. She suddenly stopped bullying him; but she was still on top of him, staring at his face.
'What's going on? Why is my heart beating so fast?' she got confused. She didn't take her eyes off him, it's like they were stuck or really doesn't want to move.
Slowly, his eyes started to open. Emerald watched Amber. Soon, his eyes were totally unsealed revealing a pair of hypnotizing astonishing amber depths that made her feel shivers coming down her spine.
Syaoran just lay there, unable to move for she was on top of him or he really doesn't wanna move at all. He just savors the moment of seeing his reflection upon a pair of astounding Emerald pools that made him feel something he never felt before. Feeling all the awkwardness in the room, he raised one eyebrow.
Soon, it was followed by her sweet embarrassed giggle. "Sorry…" she whispered as she leaves her spot. She sat on the bed with him in front of her.
As soon as her weight leaves him, he also sat up. He really didn't know what to say or wanted to say, he smiled warmly at her.
She felt her body hairs raise up as she looked into his expression. 'So cute.' She noticed. She knew it was rude to stare but she just felt like doing it.
Soon, he leaned over to her that made their bodies got closer. Closer. Closer.
Closer.
Closer.
He caressed her auburn hair with his right hand fingers.
With his movement, she got shocked, but surely felt great. She dumbly lifted her left hand then placed it on his right cheek.
The moment was so intense. Neither of them knows what's accurately happening. But it made them feel different; got them closer.
Without much thinking, he leaned over to her right shoulder then kissed her neck. Her eyes widened with shock. "S-S-Syao-" was all she could utter. She was totally lost for words.
Syaoran was speechless too; all he could do is wonder what he's doing. 'I don't know why I'm kissing her neck. What the hell am I doing? No one could give me that answer right now, not even this spoiled bratty angel I've always looked over.
Angel? Did I just call her that? It doesn't much suit her… but I know she is different. Different good.
She is so mine.'
