DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN CCS.
"Okay… Tilt your head a little… Uh-huh… Stay there... Okay! You're done."
The camera did its magic as Sakura pressed the button. She smiled to herself happy for the day's earnings and began looking through the photos as Syaoran began walking towards his bag in search of his phone.
"Waaao. Li. You're pretty good a model huh."
Syaoran scoffed at her then looked back down on to his phone, "Well, of course."
She didn't look up from her camera, "You could at least smile a bit."
"Smiling is worthless. It gains you nothing."
"Hm. Is that so…?"
Sakura got up from her seat and headed over to pack her tripod and Syaoran buttoned up his shirt. After packing up, she lifted the tripod onto her shoulders but they got lifted off again. "I'll take these for you. Seems heavy…" Giving him a weird look she sighed and took them away, "Nononononono… I'm afraid you can't. These are extremeeeeeely delicate, my friend."
He shrugged, "I'm careful. Don't worry,"
She gave him a distasteful look while growling.
"No."
"Why not…?"
He gave her puppy eyes and pouted.
"Ugh. Fine… Please, please, PLEASE don't drop them."
"Aye… Yes ma'am."
Covering his amber eyes with his glasses again, then the two then began silently making their way back to the main road where they then parted ways.
Syaoran rubbed his hair with the towel and plopped himself down on to his custom made sofa bed then switched on his laptop on the glass table, updates were needed. He sighed as the computer started updating and lied back down to stare at the ceiling which was painted to resemble the galaxy, switching on his constellation projector set then he gazed at it in admiration. Space is really… Pretty huh. He stared at it for a little while longer then switched it off and turned over to his laptop.
"Oh. The thumb drive with the info... Where…"
Getting up, he headed over to his rucksack by the door and proceeded to open it.
"Ah."
He picked up a black cell that was in the large compartment then sighed and pressed a finger to his head. When did this get here…? Oh yeah. It was when she asked me to look after it when she went to buy drinks. Oh well. Best return it to her before I forget. Ahh, but I have that job to do… Oh well, nevermind about that. It's super easy anyway.
He suddenly smirked. Ho… Since it's with me, why not have some fun with it first?
He flipped the phone open. Oya oya, 18 missed calls? Aren't we the busy one? Who the heck is this Seto person? Sure has a lot of free time to call huh? He scrolled through the contacts, Not a lot of friends huh… Touya? Who's this? Hm… Most of them are surprisingly guys? He then grinned and keyed in his own number, "And done!"
Syaoran then gulped his water down as he put a shirt on and opened a new window on his browser, entering Sakura's name on it. Huuuuuu… What a troublesome task of locating someone… Oh well, it's a trivial matter anyways… Better research on her at the same time.
He yawned as he got her information, scrolling through for anything interesting. "Wao, most of her work's pretty famous huh… Ooh! Father's an archaeologist? Mother's a… Scientist…? Eh, this… Person? Isn't she…"
Syaoran read on and smirked as he finished the last word. He locked his fingers together with both hands and laid his lips onto them as he stared at the screen. Ho… Kinomoto Sakura. You really are an interesting girl.
"AHHHH! WHERE THE HECK IS MY PHONE?"
The emerald eyed girl rummaged through her backpack then her drawers and closet. It isn't here. What should I do? Seto will kill me for not answering his calls. Ugh... And I still have to write the friggin column for the Sho*omi to do… UGH! SCREW THIS.
She sat down on her bed and closed her eyes in a thinking posture. Now where did I leave it… Seto would have to wait. But right now I was in the midst of typing that new chapter on my phone, if a fan possibly got their hands on it then… A cold wind blew past her as she thought of the consequences. She sighed dejectedly, it would be fatal.
"RINGGG~"
Sakura quickly rushed to pick up her house phone, "Seto-san? I'm REALLY sorry! I promise to hand up the manuscript tomorrow! Please don't ram down the door!"
"Oi oi… Ram down your door?"
"Eh? Who is this? L-Li-san? How did you get my number?"
"Mmn. Don't know~ Anyway, you left your phone with me when you went to get drinks earlier… I'm lazy to go to your house so I'll pass it to you tomorrow at school yeah?"
"Wha-wha? If you're too lazy then nevermind! I'll come to your house! Where is it?"
"No. It's late and little kids shouldn't be out on the streets." Syaoran paused, Actually, its better you don't go out so much at all, a daughter of such an important person.
Sakura glared at the phone. This bastard… Calling me a kid?
"… Calling me a kid? Do you have a death wish Li?"
"Pfftahahaa!"
"Grr… I swear one day… I'm going to wring that little neck of yours."
"Ahaha! I'll be waiting for that day!"
She grabbed the phone tightly; Just what does he have against me? I don't even remember doing anything to him! Argh… Just bear with it for the sake of your job and phone Sakura!
"Haaaah… Fine. I'll claim it from you tomorrow."
"Good. I expect something in return for my kindness."
"Fine, lunch's on me."
"As expected of Kura, you catch on fast. It's settled then."
"Who gave you the permission… Argh! Nevermind… Bye."
"Ciao."
Sakura slammed the phone down onto the receiver in anger and quickly headed to her desk to finish cleaning up the pages.
"Saaaaakuuuuuuraaaaaaaa-chaaaaaan~!"
A dazed Sakura turned around and saw Tomoyo dashing towards her then jumped onto her causing the two to fall as she hugged Sakura, "Tomoyo! Aish… Becareful! You shouldn't be running in the corridors!"
"Teehee~"
"Aww… Let her have her fun Kura. She's been so busy with choir practice for the festival after school that she hardly sees you that often anymore."
"I know Eriol… But I've been really busy myself."
"Busy with what?"
She got up slowly with Tomoyo still clinging on to her with a worried face. Sighing at both of her friends she shook her head as they walked towards their class, "Researching for the new book." She then opened the sliding door and bumped into a large figure.
"Oof… My bad, I didn't…-"
"Ah. Kinomoto, I was about to look for you."
Syaoran dug into his pocket for her phone, "Here. Oh by the way. Some Seto guy kept calling and you owe me lunch." She stared at it for a few seconds before slowly taking it and walking towards her desk sighing while mumbling something about her door being dead already. Syaoran looked at her before turning back to Tomoyo and Eriol. "What's up with her? She seemed fine yesterday on the phone."
Eriol stared at Syaoran, "What do you mean 'On the phone yesterday'?"
"Mmn, she kinda left her cell with me while taking pictures so I called her home phone and asked her not to go look for it."
Tomoyo stared at him and glanced at a seemingly absentminded Sakura who was scribbling something in her sketchbook. Pictures…? Kura got him as her new model? They seem closer than before too. Ohohoho!
"Hmmm… I see. Sakura doesn't really give out her number to random people. Ah. Anyway Li, wanna hang with us after school today? We're going to the new shopping centre. Sakura wants to see some random shop that opened."
Syaoran looked surprised, "Is it okay?"
Eriol chuckled and swung and arm around Syaoran's shoulders in a playful manner and ruffled his hair, "I don't see why not!"
Tomoyo smiled at the two before heading over to Sakura who was still busily scribbling away on her manuscript. "Ho…? Kura~ You've been getting closer to Li-kun eh?" Sakura looked up at her raven-haired friend who was staring back at her with a grin, causing Sakura to sigh, "Not in that way Moyo-chan. He's just my model. I don't see him anymore than a perverted-ignorant and evil bastard."
"Ho…? Perverted?"
Sakura glanced at Syaoran and Eriol who were attracting the attention of her fellow female classmates before looking back at Tomoyo who was smiling brightly, "Not in THAT way... Besides, I am not considering him. That guy," she pointed at him then to the rest of her female classmates, "Is not only super risky and troublesome. I don't even like him one bit after he started blackmailing me."
Tomoyo giggled as she followed Sakura's finger's direction to meet the sight of Syaoran and Eriol fangirls, "Alright alright, I won't force you then. Well, he is a strange one though. Such a pity you don't like him. Anyway! Let's enjoy ourselves today after school ne?~"
Smiling, Sakura nodded energetically then lied down head first onto her desk as the teacher came in.
"Ugh… Terada-sensei's lessons are soooo boring! Its just the same thing over and over again! RAWR!" Tomoyo groaned as they walked to the school gates.
Sakura yawned then smiled sarcastically, "S'pretty okay once you get used to it. By the way… What's HE doing here?" She pointed to Syaoran who smiled and waved at Eriol who in return was laughing and ruffling Sakura's hair.
"Eriol invited me and I agreed."
"Mmn! I did!"
The two posed with peace signs at the girls.
"F-fu… UGH. HE'S FRIGGIN EVERYWHERE NOW. FINE. But he's not gonna like it."
Syaoran smirked as Sakura walked off in front of the rest, before stopping and turning around and sighing, "Aren't we getting our butts moving?" Tomoyo and Eriol grinned and nodded, following their friend. And soon they arrived at the mall, they proceeded to follow a Sakura that was apparantly walking extremely fast.
"Hey… Aren't those guys kind of hot?"
"Yeah yeah! High schoolers too~ Lucky ne?"
"Waaah… That brown-haired guy has a hot body; pity he's wearing glasses! And that blue one… Awww~ Wonder if is they're with anyone?"
Sakura sweatdropped as they went up the escalator while Tomoyo patted her on the back. "Moyo… Why did we even bring them along? They attract too much attention! And attraction is something I DON'T WANT." Tomoyo sighed in reply, "You should know Eriol… He likes new things. And Hiro-kun's free anyway." As they reached the third floor, Sakura spotted the shop and she began walking faster with normal eyes turning sparkly all of a sudden with a point, "MOYO. MOYO. MOYOOOOOOOOO! OMGWTFBBQ LOOKZED AT DAT PWEETTY SHOOPPPPPP!" Tomoyo and Eriol sighed while Syaoran's hand followed the finger and only to be met with an otaku shop. Syaoran gaped, "You can't be serious… Hardcore otaku?"
Eriol grinned, "Pffft! Priceless expression much? You'll get used to her enthusiasm soon."
Syaoran sighed, but his eyes flickered to a signboard nearby, and quickly smiled at the two, attempting to usher them in, "Shall we go in then? We'll lose her if we don't."
Tomoyo eyes however, caught his quick gaze and followed his path of vision, Hm? A signboard? What does it say I wonder? "Eh… I need to go to the restroom, what about you two boys go ahead first?" Eriol grinned as he saw with no doubt the look in Tomoyo's eyes. "Sure Moyo, go ahead. I'll look after this two."
Syaoran smiled, "Ahahaha! Look after? What do you mean chairman?"
"Oh nothing~"
With that, Eriol dragged Syaoran in to the shop with abnormal strength leaving behind a waving Tomoyo who proceeded to investigate the signboard. She proceeded carefully, "Eh…? What? This signboard is saying… Pregnancy kit? EHHH! WHY! DID HE AND KURA…?" Tomoyo gasped and covered her mouth as she noticed people beginning to stare. She shook her head and walked away.
And little did Tomoyo notice a black shadow shift from behind the board.
