Chapter 4: Under the Moonlight

Syaoran yawned as he stretched out his arms. He was wearing the school uniforms which were pure black pants and a dark blue shirt. He slowly walked into the bathroom and looked at himself at the mirror. Syaoran slowly tipped his head sideway to get a better view at his big red bump. Syaoran sighed, helplessly. KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK! Touya knock abruptly on the bathroom door.

"Get out already! How long does it take to take a crap?!" shouted out Touya. Syaoran finally opened the door.

"I wasn't taking a crap," admitted Syaoran, dully.

"Call yourself lucky since my MP3 player could get fix or else you wouldn't be in this house right now," said Touya as he glared at Syaoran. Syaoran wonder his eyes to the corner.

"TOUYA! LOOK! A RAT!" hollered Syaoran as he pointed at the corner. Touya quickly jumped back and lean against the wall.

"Where?!" questioned Touya as he looked at the ground, impatiently. Then he realized that there wasn't any rat in his house.

"Opps, my mistake," said Syaoran as he smoothly walked away. Touya clenched his fist as hard as he can.

"SYAORAN! YOU'RE DONE FOR!" hollered Touya as he started to chase Syaoran.

"Gee, what did I do?" asked Syaoran innocently as he quickly ran out of the house.

-Later at School-

The first bell rung and the students quickly ran to their classes. Eriol waited at the front gate as he leaned against the brick wall.

"He's late," mumbled Eriol as glanced at his watch.

"ERIOL!" hollered Yamazaki as he dashed toward Eriol.

"Hey Yamazaki," greeted Eriol.

"I finally thought out a bet you can't win," stated Yamazaki as he smiled lamely.

"Oh really?" said Eriol, sarcastically. Eriol never lost a bet against anyone. It was because winning a bet was an easy way Eriol could make money out of.

"So, what is it this time Yamazaki," said Eriol.

"I'll tell a person my story. And if that person believes me than I win, but if he doesn't then you win. But of course, everyone believes my stories!" stated Yamazaki as he smiled widely, showing off his teeth.

"He must have not notice that everyone knows his stories are full of lies," thought Eriol.

"Oh yeah and you can't say anything about my stories or I'll win automatically," added Yamazaki.

"Fine, choose a person," said Eriol as if he didn't really care. Yamazaki observed his classmates around him. Then he noticed Syaoran running toward his way.

"I pick that guy," said Yamazaki as he pointed at Syaoran. Eriol looked the way he pointed and saw Syaoran running toward his way.

"You're choosing Syaoran?" said Eriol as he twitched his eyebrows.

"Ok settle down. There's no way Syaoran will believe Yamazaki stories," thought Eriol, feeling uneasy.

"Hey Eriol, I'm sorry that I'm late," said Syaoran.

"Hey, I'm Yamazaki," greeted Yamazaki as he quickly shook Syaoran's hand.

"Syaoran," greeted back Syaoran.

"Did you know that if you bring the person you like to the school rooftop and wait for the moonlight to shine down at you then that person will fall in love with you?" lied Yamazaki as he smiled mischievously.

"Fall in love? You got to be kidding me?" Eriol thought again as he rolled his eyes.

"Really?" said Syaoran as he showed interest in his story.

Eriol sweat-dropped. "No way, does Syaoran really believe this crap?"

"And guess what, today is a full moon!" stated Yamazaki.

"Then if I go with Sakura…." Syaoran started to say.

"Great, does Syaoran thinks that Sakura will fall in love with him?" thought Eriol

"See you later Eriol!" shouted Syaoran as he ran off.

"Syaoran! Where're you going?" asked Eriol

"I'm going to Sakura," reply Syaoran as he continued running.

"I might actually lose this bet. But I can't lose to Yamazaki. I can't tell Syaoran the truth or I'll lose automatically. There got to be a way I could win this bet," thought Eriol. Then he thought up an idea and grinned secretly.

Mean while, Sakura walk along the hallway alone. She looked at the plain ground and think back at yesterday event.

-Sakura's Flashback-

Sakura eyes widen as soon as she saw Touya hit Syaoran with his bat.

"Gee, I only dropped it in the toilet," Syaoran finally confessed.

"THE TOILET!" yelled out Touya as he remembered when Syaoran used the bathroom, not realizing that the toilet was broken.

"Touya settle down, maybe you could get it fix?" said Sakura.

Touya took a big breath. "I'll go to the repair shop. If I can't get this fix then…." Touya glared at Syaoran evilly. Syaoran smiled back at Touya. Touya left the house as he shut the door abruptly. Sakura sighed as she the chaos finally ended.

-End of Sakura Flashback-

"I wonder if I hit Syaoran that hard with the bat," said Sakura, suddenly feeling guilty hitting him with Touya's baseball bat.

"Actually, Touya hurts the most," a voice popped in front of Sakura. Sakura saw Syaoran in front of him.

"No way," mumbled Sakura, surprised to see Syaoran at school.

"He wasn't kidding when he said that'll he come to this school," thought Sakura.

"Come on Sakura, there's this place I want to show you," said Syaoran as he grabbed Sakura's hand.

"Syaoran! Wait! I have class!" said Sakura. Syaoran dragged her upstairs and toward the rooftop. Syaoran opened the door to the rooftop and close the door when Sakura walked in. Syaoran looked at the clear sunny sky.

"Isn't it nice out here," said Syaoran.

"The place you wanted to show me is the school rooftop?" questioned Sakura.

"Yep!" said Syaoran

"Great, I'm going to be late," said Sakura. Sakura turned the knob to opened the door, but the door was locked.

"Syaoran, I think we're locked out," said Sakura in disbelief.

"What do you mean?" said Syaoran as he tried to turn the knob, but the knob wouldn't budge.

"This is your entire fault! I have an important test to take!" said Sakura as she pointed at Syaoran.

"Now we can stay here until night," mumbled Syaoran, but of course Sakura heard him.

BAM! Sakura threw one of her shoes at Syaoran's head.

"OW! That hurts!" hollered Syaoran. Syaoran turned around and observed Sakura angry expression.

"Um…..Maybe I should walk around…" said Syaoran as slowly shift away.

"SYAORAN!" hollered Sakura out loud which startled Syaoran.

"I'm sorry Sakura! I didn't know that the door would be locked!" admitted Syaoran. Then suddenly there were silent. Syaoran looked over to Sakura, who seemed to have lost hope.

"No one ever comes to the rooftop," said Sakura, sadly

"Hopefully, no one will come until the moon shows up," thought Syaoran as he smiled mischievously to himself.

Later, the dark clouds slowly move around the pitch-black sky. Sakura and Syaoran sat down on the cold ground as they leaned against each other backs. Syaoran looked up at the dark sky.

"That's odd, there's suppose to be a full moon tonight," said Syaoran

"Where did you hear that? There's rarely full moon at night," said Sakura

"WHAT! So, there's a chance that there's no full moon tonight," Syaoran glanced up the sky, disappointed.

"I never have seen a full moon lately. By the way, why did you want to come here?" Sakura finally asked.

"Because I heard the rooftop has a special view," said Syaoran, disappointed

"A special view?" retorted Sakura.

"What's going on? He definitely said that there would be full moon tonight. Does that mean that he lied to me? Then does that also mean that the story he told me was a lie?" thought Syaoran. Syaoran stood up from the ground, angrily.

"Let's go Sakura, there's no reason for me to stay here anymore," said Syaoran

"We can't get out of here because we're locked out," reminded Sakura.

"Then let's break down the door! I'm so hungry and cold. Plus, I'm getting sleepy," complained Syaoran.

"It's about time that you're complaining," said Sakura. The dark gloomy cloud slowly moved away. Then a small light appeared from the sky.

"Where's this light coming from?" questioned Syaoran. Then he looked up at the sky and noticed a full moon above him.

"A full moon!" stated Syaoran as he pointed up the sky. Sakura looked up and noticed the bright moon above her.

"Wow, it's beautiful" said Sakura. Syaoran and Sakura both stared at the moon as the moon light shine below them.

"Yes! Finally, the moon shows up. Does that mean that Sakura could be in love with me? Ha-Ha-Ha! I knew I could believe in you, Yamazaki!" Syaoran thought, happily.

"Hey Sakura, do you feel weird?" Syaoran started to say.

"What do you mean?" asked Sakura as she continued to look at the bright moon.

"Are you in love with anyone?" Sakura froze as she heard the questioned. Sakura looked over to Syaoran.

"Like who?" asked Sakura.

"Like a guy who has chestnut color hair and brown eyes," said Syaoran. Sakura stared at Syaoran chestnut color hair and his brown eyes.

"Syaoran, are you sick?" asked Sakura.

"It's alright Sakura. Even though you have a flat chest, I'll always…."

KABAM! Sakura threw another pair of her shoe at his red bump.

"OW! Can you aim somewhere else? I'm still recovering from Touya's attack," said Syaoran.

"Flat chest?" retorted Sakura, angrily

"Oh crap….." said Syaoran as he started running away from Sakura. Sakura quickly grabbed her shoe and chased Syaoran around the area.

Mean while, Eriol and Yamazaki walked toward the rooftop entrance.

"Heh-heh, there's no way Yamazaki could win this bet," thought Eriol as he grinned.

"Ok Eriol, this is it. If Syaoran is in here then I win," said Yamazaki.

"Give up Yamazaki, there's no way Syaoran…." Eriol discontinued his sentence when Yamazaki open the door to the rooftop.

"What's going on? I definitely lock the door earlier," thought Eriol. Silence fill the air when Eriol and Yamazaki stood outside of the rooftop. Eriol looked around and noticed no one in sight.

Eriol smirked. "Looks like I win again, Yamazaki."

"How? I was sure I'll win this one," said Yamazaki, disappointed.

"Let's go before it gets darker," said Eriol. When Eriol and Yamazaki was about to leave, they heard a voice.

"Did you hear something?" asked Yamazaki.

"Nope, let's go," said Eriol as he glanced back as he also heard a voice.

"Yamazaki, I'm going to get some fresh air for a while, you go on ahead," said Eriol

"Yeah whatever," said Yamazaki as he left the rooftop, sadly. Eriol walked around the door and noticed Syaoran and Sakura.

"Take that back, you PERVERT!" yelled out Sakura, angrily.

"But it's true…." admitted Syaoran.

"ARG! Get this!" said Sakura as she threw her shoe at Syaoran again. Syaoran dodge the shoe easily.

"Heh, you miss," said Syaoran. Sakura walked up to Syaoran and kicked him on the knee.

"OW!" yelled out Syaoran as he grabbed his knee

Eriol, who was watching the scene, smirked. "Look who I found under the moonlight" said Eriol.

"Eriol!" hollered Syaoran, happily.

"The door!" said Sakura as she quickly ran to the door.

"The door?" retorted Eriol, clueless. Sakura ran toward the door and noticed it was shut.

"NOOOOO!" cried out Sakura, sadly.

"Guess you're locked up with us Eriol," said Syaoran.

"Locked up? Does that mean I locked the wrong side of the door?" thought Eriol as he felt like an idiot.

"Hey Eriol, I don't think Sakura had fallen in love with me. But at least I know she doesn't hate me," said Syaoran.

"I don't know Syaoran. It seems like she hates you a lot," said Eriol.

"Gee, I'm so hungry" said Sakura as remember Tomoyo gave her a candy bar in the morning. Sakura checked her pockets.

"Hey, where did my candy bar go?" said Sakura as she checked her pockets again.

"Heh-heh, you dropped it while you were chasing me," said Syaoran as he held up the candy bar.

"Finally, I could have my dinner," said Syaoran

"In your dream! Give me back my candy bar!" shouted Sakura as she started to chased Syaoran once again.

"But I found it!" said Syaoran

"It's MINE!" stated Sakura

"Founders Keepers!" stated Syaoran as he run around in circle. Eriol chuckled softly as he watched Syaoran and Sakura fight.

"I do have my cell phone, but I think I'll enjoy this scene for a little longer," thought Eriol as he smiled joyfully.
