Bonding, Betrayal, Blackmail
Sakura and Syaoran were no longer sixteen-years-old. They were not in a park. And they were also not in Tokyo. They were now twenty-one years old, in a mall, in Osaka on a mission. That was the difference. But they ate cookies 'n cream and chocolate ice cream. They were still partners and continued to bicker like a married couple. Oh, but how could I forget this difference? Their feelings for each other…increased immensely.
"Can you stop eating it like that?"
"Like what!" A young couple had eyes staring at them as they yelled at each other back and forth. "I'm not eating it like anything! What are you talking about!"
"You are such a good boyfriend!" She yelled at him sarcastically.
"Come on! Don't give me that! I wasn't doing anything!" The man pleaded.
"Oh yeah!" Here eyes narrowed as she continued to lick her ice cream. "Bet you wouldn't like it if I did something similar."
Before the man could say anymore, he was too late. His so-called girlfriends had walked away until she found a couple of guys in a group. College guys, so they'd be around her age. As she walked up to the desperate bunch, they looked at her nervously trying to keep their cool.
"Mini skirt and heels guys!" She heard one whisper. Actually, it wasn't much of a whisper if she heard it and thought it was quite pathetic.
"Hey there" The woman smiled. "I'm sorry. I'm new around here. Can you tell me what time it is?"
Each of the guys rustled to get a cell out or lift their sleeves up to see the time.
"its 4:59" "5:00" "You're ppppuuuurrrttyy" "2:30" Were the responses she got.
"Oh! Thank you so much!" She flipped back her hair and bit seductively into her ice cream. Some ice cream stuck to her lip so she licked it off; her pink tongue sliding over her pink lips. Then she smacked her lips. (You know when you make that funny sound after tightly pushing them against each other.)
"So…" She continued to smile at the college dorks. "Have you guys tasted this ice cream? It's soooo good."
Her tongue continued to run over the ice cream. They all stared in awe, the drool, mouth-open and all.
"Sakura!" A deep voice interrupted. "Sorry guys, she's mine." The handsome man pulled the woman away hearing sounds of deep, depressed awes.
Sakura pouted. "Let go of me. Who do you think you are?" She squirmed away from the arm that hugged her waist.
"Will you stop!" He said getting frustrated. Sakura walked close to the wall trying to avoid how cute it was for Syaoran to beg, plead and become frustrated alongside her. She looked at all the clothing shops with their manikins posed in some sort of attractive way. Many people laughed at the scene the two were causing. "I didn't do anything!"
Sakura stopped in her tracks. She turned to Syaoran.
"Then what do you call this?"
She leaned up against the wall with her elbow and crossed her ankles casually. She licked her ice cream long, and teasingly at Syaoran keeping her eyes on him.
"Hey! What's up baby?" She nodded winking, imitating his deep manly voice.
Syaoran ran his hand through his hair looking guilty. She stood back up and seeing Syaoran's expression, rubbed it in for with a "See? Some boyfriend you're supposed to be."
"Okay, I'm sorry/" He went up to her giving her a one arm hug and kissed her on the forehead. "I didn't know you'd get so jealous over that."
"Jealous!" Sakura whispered harshly after she finished blushing. "Oooohh you are so lucky we're in public right now."
He smiled at her and they continued to walk still eating their ice cream. As Sakura had been window shopping. Syaoran had been eyeing her ice cream for some time now. He was getting a little impatient that Sakura didn't notice his interest in the cone and her lips every time they came close.
That's it. He made a move. Just as Sakura lifted the cone to her lips once more, Syaoran leaned in to taste some. Both the cookies 'n cream goodness and the side Sakura's soft lips brushed by his. She was taken by surprise and looked up to see Syaoran lick his lips catching the taste; his eyes locked onto her as he did this.
"If you wanted some, you could've just asked." Sakura stated. She glanced back at him as he ate some of his own ice cream, noticing how tasty his looked as well. Probably even tastier because it was in the hands of Li Syaoran.
"Can I have some of yours then?" She asked with a puppy dog face. It didn't quite work.
"Sure." He licked up a chunk on his tongue. "Go ahead, this way."
Sakura looked disgusted.
"Urgh. I think I'll pass."
Syaoran frowned and held out his cone. "Fine. You win."
She smiled with delight. She took a good lick at his triumphantly. Syaoran smirked. "I take it back. I want my ice cream back."
Sakura looked at him confused and gulped down that good chocolate tasting frozen cream. "W-wah! B-but I already-! I-I mean you said and all…"
He leaned closer to her. I want my ice cream back."
"But…It's too late! What do you want me to do?"
He smirked more mischievously. 'Great! I just had to say 'what do you want me to do''
"Would you stop smirking at me like that."
Syaoran ignored her. "I want you to give me a kiss."
She was an inch away from his face. Squinted eyes and a smirk of her own. "You like my kisses don't you?" She whispered at him. He didn't twitch or blink his half-lidded eyes.
"Or is it just that I'm doing you a favour? Hmmm…"
Sakura didn't hear another word, got up and walked away after a second or two realizing what he had meant. It had only happened a few hours ago, and took no time to take advantage of that moment.
Syaoran mentally smacked himself, tossed his now melted cone in the garbage and ran after her taking hold of her hand. She shoved down the rest of her ice cream and pulled away from Syaoran's touch.
"Look! If that upset you, I'm so-"
"Excuse me!"
He tried to take hold of her hand again but she whipped it away heading for the mall exit.
"I'm-"
"Sorry," She looked at him weirdly. "Do I know you, sir?"
Syaoran froze. A cold, blazing fir ran over him. He wanted to yell at her and cry at the same time. Yes, cry. But he tried his best to remain calm. He started it after all.
"DON'T FUCKING GIVE ME THAT!" Yes, that was a lot calmer than what was going on in his head. People stared but he didn't care. Some even were ready to head toward him to tell him to leave and lay off the young lady. "I'M TRYING TO TELL YOU I'M FUCKING SORRY, OKAY!" Sakura stood still and he finally calmed down…a bit.
"Okay. I forgive you." And after she had said that, he kissed her on the cheek. "I'm not giving you that kiss you requested though." She simply said. Syaoran laughed lightly.
"I know. I was an ass and a jerk. I don't deserve it."
There was a bitter silence.
"Aren't you going to disagree and tell me I'm not those things I just said?"
"Why? It's true."
His arm hung around her shoulder. "Whatever you say, honey. Because I am such a good boyfriend."
"Urgh! I can't take this anymore…Let me go!" Sakura took his arm off her. He then hugged her waist.
"Awwee! But baby!"
"I don't care what our position is, you better stop or I'll-"
"Or you'll what?" he smirked at her.
"This- STOP SEXUAL HARASSEING ME SIR!" As she pretended to push him away weakly. Syaoran's mouth dropped as men started to gather around the two.
"This man bothering you lady?" One guy asked as Syaoran let go of Sakura.
"Yes." She nodded acting scared.
"Hey wait!" Syaoran tried to speak. "I'm her boyfriend!"
"That's what they all say." Another man said as they started to approach him. Sakura started to creep away when-
Jing, jing, jing.
"Sweetie! You can't leave me! Tell them. Tell them I'm your boyfriend."
Sakura wouldn't have turned around, but she was curious of what that 'jing-ing' sound was. And there it was in Syaoran's hand. Sakura's only way of getting back to the hotel (because she had no money). The car keys.
'Blackmail.' Sakura sighed and faced the humiliation.
"Oh my God!" She gasped running to him, a satisfied, victorious smirk settled on his face. "I remember you now!"
The men around looked either confused, hopeless or retreated.
"You're that guy that said you'd pay me if I pretended to be your girlfriend!" Syaoran's mouth dropped open once more.
'Are you saying I'm desperate!'
I'm sorry!" Sakura bowed her head to the many chuckling men around them. "I forgot that he was just a desperate guy in need. But thank you so much for trying to help me!" The males left sniggering, looking back at Syaoran every now and then, as well as the giggling females.
Syaoran felt humiliated and grabbed Sakura wrist pulling her to the door.
"We leave now." She skipped along with him happily.
Then he stopped dead in his tracks after seeing something that caught his eye. And idea fused in his head. He turned around letting go of Sakura.
"Wait! Where you going? I thought we were leaving."
Syaoran sighed and turned back to Sakura. He tossed her the car keys.
"Meet me out front. I'll drive." He instructed.
"You trust me with these?" She smiled evilly. "I could just take off without you."
"Not without my plan and the key to our room." He left her his trademark smirk and ran off leaving her mouth dropped.
