Chapter 13
Some few hours before Syaroan Li confess…
Eriol looked at Syaroan as if he was doing something stupid, like going bungee jumping without the bungee "So you're going to tell her?"
"Yes"
"But we're still not sure whether or not she hates your guts completely, or if she secretly likes you…"
"Oh well!"
"How are you going to tell her exactly? She's avoiding you like you're the plague seriously"
"Eriol, it's as if you don't know me at all, what makes you think I actually think that far? All I know is what I'm going to do, how I'm going to do it, I don't know, why I'm going to do it, I don't know either, what happens after I do it? That to is still unknown, you know this is how I got in this crappy ass situation anyway, all the humiliation, those pranks and insults…I liked her, but I didn't consider the effects, you know? I'm just willing to take the risk right now"
"Syaroan, that's why you have me, oh so magnificent me, don't worry me and Tomoyo will think of something…"
"If you're going to plan on somehow getting me alone with Sakura with no escape then forget it"
"Hey how did you know that? I was thinking something like locking both of you in a classroom or something…"
"NO-"
"Haha, just kidding my friend, I shan't do anything without your authorization…"
"You better not Eriol! I swear if you do, I'll tell Tomoyo every embarrassing thing about you"
"Hey we made an oath not to tell anyone anything about our embarrassing secrets!"
"Not about the peanut butter…"
"Oh damn it, I forgot about that! Say, Syaroan, why don't we go swimming and forget about this?"
"No, it's raining I don't want to get wet!"
"You'll get wet anyway! The swimming pool is a hole in the floor filled with water!"
I bet Eriol would never have thought 'oh' would be Sakura's reply, well neither did I, but why aren't you saying anything else Sakura?
Sakura smiled "Wow, it's awkward again…"
"That would be because you're not saying anything…"
"Li, I want you to know that, all this time, there was a fire exit…"
I think, I THINK, that this rejection actually hurts…Damn it Syaroan why didn't you think about this part? The crappy stupid part!
Outside the other two secret lovebirds were just waiting for a couple of minutes to open the door hoping to be greeted by Syaroan and Sakura confessing each other's love for each other. Of course Tomoyo and Eriol will be greeted by nothing, the two have already escaped though the fire escape door.
"I'd hate to see how you treat people you love"
Syaroan shrugged as he walked along side with Sakura in the light rain on their way home, it was a weird feeling, few minutes ago there was that uncomfortable silence between them and now their talking about this like civilized human beings…Truly unexpected, the only thing that sucked was the fact that Sakura wasn't giving any hints if she feels the same way or not, she just seems so casual like she wasn't talking to her nemesis of how many years.
"I don't even know how we got to this, how we started to piss each other off…"
"I do, I stepped on your head when we were in Kindergarten at nap time and you got angry so the next day you 'accidentally' got sand in my eyes" Sakura smirked.
Syaroan had a questioning look on his face, "Why did you step on me?"
"Oh like you don't know, remember, you STOLE my juice box?"
"I remember now, and you know what? I DID NOT!"
"DID TOO"
"DID NOT"
"DID TOO"
"DID NOT"
"DID TOO"
"DID NOT"
"THEN PROVE IT POO HEAD!"
"Oh I will! First of all, I'd have you know that that juice was apple flavor, it's green and that's my favorite color, so I ask you, when have you ever seen me drinking in a different colored juice box?"
"Well-"
"Never, that's when! You always had a pink one, oh yes, who's stole what now?"
"Wait-so this is my fault?"
"If you mean that it's your fault why we're fighting and never really got along, then yes, yes it is your fault"
"So why do you like me?" Sakura smiled, she then realized what she did, she smiled and she sounded all HAPPY!
"Do you hate me?"
"Hey that's not the answer!"
"You said you'll tell me why you kissed me if I answered you're question in the equipment room…"
"How should I put this," Sakura looked up at the dark heavy grey sky, surely she was going to get a cold tomorrow…It doesn't matter anyway, it's Saturday tomorrow and she didn't mind spending it sneezing and blowing her nose. Now she was stuck, how should she put this? It was all TOO simple, Sakura stopped walking and so did Syaroan as they have come to the crossroads where they're to separate…There's no way what Sakura was about to do can be taken back, she didn't care for that moment only, she might as well speak her mind, or heart.
"Hey Li, this is our stop, but um, hey maybe I like you too!"
Sakura didn't run like she planned to, Syaroan seemed to be shocked and his risk actually paid off. But he didn't know what exactly they were doing now, the rain is starting to seriously pour, and he found that Sakura was shivering. It didn't even matter, but somehow it made a difference, he put his arms affectionately around her in an embrace as if protecting Sakura from the rain which pelted through their skins anyway. Now, it was his turn to kiss her…Syaroan remembered that day he 'stole' Sakura's first kiss in their Romeo and Juliet play, he was still in denial about liking her though he was wondering in his mind if he would ever get to kiss Sakura because he wanted to and not because the script says he had to. The cold light wind that kept coming and going didn't even exist, Sakura felt as though was floating and the cherished the taste of the kiss she never thought she would have. They were perfect fit for each other, it's extraordinary that a few days ago they were shouting and screaming at each other and now, their kissing.
If only the moment could last forever…
"Sakura why are you late?"
"Ah, my dear brother, life is beautiful!"
Touya Kinomoto glared at his sister, is she high? "What the hell are you talking about? Did you walk around in the rain?"
"Why yes I did, did you?"
"No, don't be stupid Sakura, you'll get a cold! Why is your face red?"
"I, I bumped into a wall…"
"WHAT? YOUR CLUMSINESS WILL GET YOU KILLED!"
"Relax I'm okay, I'm REALLY okay"
"My sister, she's a weirdo" Touya shrugged and looked at his father, talking about Sakura like she wasn't right next to him.
"My brother, he's an ogre"
