~ A LOVE BEFORE TIME ~
By: Silent Wanderer.
Sakura was starting to get very disturbed by the way Syaoran wouldn't seem to take his
eyes off her. She wasn't sure how long they had been standing, but it was beginning to feel like
an eternity. She so despretely needed to sit down. What made the situation worse was the fact
that Syaoran's mouth seemed to be catching Sakura's attention with every passing minute.
"S..s...syaoran? please don't look at me like that." she managed to stammer out.
Syaoran suddenly looked away, somewhat flustered. He didn't have anything to say and that
made Sakura uneasy. It made her feel like she had done something wrong.
Collecting her courage she took in a deep breath. "Syaoran? please tell me if I did
something wrong." she watched Syaoran's mouth open as if to say something, but she didn't know
why she didn't hear him. She bagan to fade away. Emike had returned.
"Did I do something wrong my sweet?" she coated her words with her sweet tone.
Out of nowhere, Syaoran brushed away Emike's bangs so he could see the expression in her
beautiful, emerald eyes.
A minute ago, he had seen the look of pure, naive love coming out of Emike eyes, even
that kiss had sealed it, but now as he stared into his Emike's eyes, it seemed different.
Am I just seeing things? he asked himself. That kiss was like nothing I have ever felt
before. It made me just want to lose control. I've never felt something that strong, not even
with Emike, or not until now.
"Syaoran, darling? are you alright?"
Syaoran smiled. "Emike? are you willing to participate in my little experiment?"
"Well, of course Syaoran. What is it?" her breath was taken away as Syaoran just placed
his lips onto her own. She let him take over until he stopped.
"Syaoran?" she breathed. "What were you proving?"
Syaoran recomposed himself, but he didn't smile. "Thank you Miss. Kinomoto, I have what I
need." with that said he walked out of the room.
Sakura Awakes
"Took you long enough, now tell me what happened this time."
Sakura scowled at Li's demand. "Thanks, I feel fine."
Li rolled his eyes and sat down on Sakura's bed. "Well........."
Sakura felt herself blush, Their faces were just inches away from each other. She had
felt for the first time how Syaoran's kisses could feel like, and she yearned for more. Now that
she knew how affectionate they were, it hurt to be so close to him yet still not able to kiss
him.
"Well?........." he was getting impatient.
Sakura got out of bed to stop her urges. " You were mad at me for leaving the mansion
without telling you first."
"And......."
"Hey! you should know, you were there!"
Li shook his head. "It's been too long." He smiled softly to himself, he was lying for he
knew where this was heading, after all it sounded quite similar to Sakura's session with Mr.
Walker.
Sakura bit her bottom lip. " I was somewhat cold and you warmed me up. Them you kissed
Emike."
"You? or Emike?"
"Does is matter?" she squeaked. She was relieved when Li didn't say anything. She headed
for the door.
"Did you like it?"
Sakura froze. He was obviously talking about the kiss. She wanted to scream out YES! oh
yes, Oh Syaoran you just don't know how I feel about you. But instead she replied. "I don't
remember."
That would definetly be haunting her in the future.
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~
Sakura sat on the bench in the garden. "The beautiful sea view was enchanting to Sakura,
well atleast it was taking her mind off everything.
Why does Li care if I liked the kiss or not? what does it have anything to do with him?
Ok maybe the fact that he was the one kissing me but besides that nothing, so why?
Can it be possibly he has feelings for me? Just me? she shook he head roughly. Forget
about it, you're here to fix the wedding between the two of them not steal Emike's husband.
What about Simon? She frowned. What ABOUT Simon?
"He's nothing but a jerk." she picked up a small rock and chucked it into the sea. "Next
time I see him, he better just watch out. "
"Sakura! can you come here for a moment?"
Sakura groaned. Her aunt sure knew how to break a private moment. "Coming!" she ran back
into the house, following the paintings that led into the living room.
"What is it?" she asked frusterated. She blinked a few times. "This isn't happening." she
whispered. "What are you doing here?"
Simon wasn't fazed by Sakura's attitude. "Hello to you to Sakura, and how are you doing?"
"What do you want?"
Chigusa stared at her neice's manners. "Sakura?! apologize this instant!"
"But..." she began to protest. She stopped once she caught Chigusa's angry face. It was
the same look her father used to get. "Fine. I 'm sorry Simon, I don't know what came over me."
Simon grinned. "Oh It's okay Sakura, don't worry about it." he flashed a sexy smile at
her.
Chigusa's eyebrows rose as she brushed past Sakura. "Now Sakura he's a keeper."
Sakura slapped her forehead as she watched her aunt leave the room. "Okay you have
two seconds."
"Sakura, why do have to be so rude? where's that Sakura I used to know hmmm?"
Sakura smirked. "I'm not the same person you used to know, I slready told you that."
Simon rose from the couch and strode over to Sakura. Slowly he ran the back of his hand
against Sakura's cheek. "That's why I'm getting you back."
Sakura slapped away his hand though it was beginning to feel nice. "Too bad I don't feel
the same way."
"Oh that's fine, I'm sure you won't be feeling that way soon." he smiled at Sakura's
face. It was so serious. "Hey, Don't take it that seriously Sakura. Hey can't we atleast be
friends then?"
"If you'll leave."
"Oh you know I would Sakura but your aunt invited me for dinner."
"Well then I uninvite you."
"I don't think that's such a good idea, your aunt seems to think of me as your future
husband."
Sakura showed a look of pure disgust. "Fine then, I'm not that hungry anyways." she
started up the stairs.
"Okay Sakura but your aunt might just start telling me a bit more about yourself."
Sakura felt her fist tighten on the banister. "Fine."
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~
Sakura started to mix her soup to get rid of steam, but soon she couldn't seem to stop.
"Stupid Simon." she mumbled. "What a fraud." she didn't take her eyes off her soup.
"Oh Simon, you're such a help in the kitchen." she mimicked he aunts voice.
"You're not feeling sick are you beautiful?"
Sakura forced out a smile. Eriol was the only one she could depend on. "If I say I am
will you take me upstairs to my room?"
Eriol chuckled. "So I take it you don't like him either hmm?"
"LIke him? I hate him. " she kept her voice low as she spoke. "Why do you hate him Eriol?
You jealous of all the attention he's getting from the girls?"
"Something like that." he whispered. "So you want to leave?"
Sakura nodded. "Um, I don't feel so good suddenly, can I be excused?"
Aunt Chigusa gave Sakura a sympethetic look. "Oh of course Sakura."
Eriol stood up. "I'll take her to her room."
"Okay but you better come back down Eriol."
"Yeah okay mom."
Sakura grinned. "Too bad."
Simon watched Sakura protectively as she was being pulled up the stairs by Eriol.
"She is so faking." he grumbled.
"Something wrong Simon?"
"Uh, nothing Miss. Kinomoto, I was just wondering, Eriol is Sakura's cousin?"
"Well yes. What's wrong? A bit jealous?"
"I guess you can say that."
Chigusa nodded knowingly. "You can go and see her later if you want, just before you
leave. Her room is on the second floor, last room."
"Thanks you, I plan to."
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~
Sakura hugged her pillow to her chest.
"Something wrong?"
Sakura sighed. "Simon's back. You know him right?"
"No I don't."
Sakura shrugged. "Oh I guess I just assumed you did. Anyways it isn't that important."
"Whatever you say Kinomoto."
Sakura heard a silent knock on the door.
"Hey Sakura, you okay?"
Sakura growled at the sarcasm in Simon's voice. "Get out of here Simon." she threw her
pillow at his head.
Swiftly he caught it and walked to Sakura and handed her back the pillow. "Hey I just
wanted to see how you were doing? that's all."
"I'm fine so get out."
Simon watched Li from the corner of his eye. "So is this why I can't have you Sakura?"
"What are you talking about?"
"You and ghost boy here? what's he got that I don't?"
"W..w..wait a minute. You see him?"
Li gave Simon a dirty look. "She doesn't want you in here so leave."
A crooked smile came from Simon. "Sorry I don't listen to ghosts, no offence." he turned
back to face Sakura. "You've been in this room for a long time Sakura?"
"Yeah........"
"Well then don't you care if a ghost is sharing your room?"
"I..I..I.."
"I mean isn't it a bit difficult to change? let alone do other things without him
invading your privacy?"
Sakura saw Li's fists tighten. Her drawer began to shake. She was getting scared."I have
the bathroom Simon, now I'm sorry if I didn't say it clearer, but GET OUT!"
Simon pretended he didn't hear her. Carefully he studied Li.
"Sakura? why don't you just help him get over himself so he'll leave?"
"I am!" she cried.
"So you two aren't in any sort of relationship."
Li cut in before Sakura could say anything. "Don't answer him Kinomoto."
Simon laughed out loud. "Is that what he calls you Sakura? I can't believe you'll let him
order you around with the name Kinomoto."
Li was ready to lunge at Simon. Sakura ran over to Li and stopped his arm from striking
out.
"Simon, why did you bother to come here in the first place?"
Simon smiled and moved in closer to Sakura, while ignoring Li.
"I just want to give you back your locket Sakura. You know the one you accidently
dropped at our old school." he opened Sakura's fist and placed the small locket in her hand.
"See you at school Sakura." Simon started walking out the door. "And just something else
for you to think about Sakura. You and your ghost? it will never work."
Okay and that's that. I kinda got into a better mood as I wrote, so things didn't really
go as planned. Thanks for reading and please review. thank you. - silent wanderer.
