Things You Should Never Do Concerning Your Crush
5. let him find out about your collection of all the things you've ever gotten from him, including that silly voucher he gave you when you were little for 20 free kisses.
20 Kisses
Fifteen-year-old Sakura tapped her desk impatiently, staring out the window. Where the heck was Syaoran? Sakura only became more annoyed as she brushed a strand of caramel colored hair out of her eyes. He was supposed to come by her house to work on a project together today; it was already 2:50 and he was supposed to get here by… 3 o'clock. Oh… never mind then.
But still, why couldn't he just come a little early? Time seemed to go by so slowly when you're as excited as Sakura was.
Sakura sighed and stood up, starting to pace around her room. Suddenly, she thought of something that she could do and would be a perfect distraction as she waited for her "late" guest. She bounded back to her desk, plopped down on her chair, and pulled open one of the many drawers she had.
Inside the drawer was a huge mess. Anyone else would have probably just closed it on the spot, dreading the thought of having to clean it up, and would have preferred to just forget that the intimidating muddle ever existed.
But not Sakura. For her, these were the physical forms of her wondrous memories, her source of happiness, the key to her own little world of paradise… In short, they meant everything to her.
And what was in the pile of disarray? Everything and anything she had ever gotten from Li Syaoran, of course.
She picked out a Reese's candy wrapper. Hadn't he given her a Reese's on the day of his sister's birthday for no apparent reason?
Sakura reached her hand in again and pulled out a very hastily written note. Hope you get better and come to school tomorrow so we can play together. Wasn't this the letter he put on her porch that one time when she was sick with fever in second grade?
The next item she grabbed happened to be one of those delicious Hershey's Hugs. Wasn't this the time in sixth grade when he told her he would give her a hug and ended up giving her this chocolate? She didn't really mind, being somewhat obsessed with chocolate and all, but deep down she really would have preferred a real hug.
And then… Sakura saw the thing that had always made her smile the most. It was during her 4th birthday party when she'd received this tiny piece of heavenly bliss. "I am happy you are my friend," he had told her beforehand, with a childish yet determined voice. Then he had hugged her tightly and gave her this voucher that said…
Ding dong!
The sudden ring of the doorbell knocked Sakura completely out of her trance and back to reality. She glanced at the clock. It was 2:55. Finally, she thought, as she rushed downstairs and opened the door.
"Syaoran-kun! Konnichiwa!" Sakura greeted her guest as she ushered him into her house.
"Konnichiwa, Sakura," Syaoran answered with a warm smile on his face, stepping through the doorway.
Sakura grinned back. "Here, you can go to my room first and I'll go make us some tea, 'kay?"
Syaoran nodded, and headed up the stairs. He knew the way to her room only too well, having come to her house ever since they met when they were 3. He sat himself down in her chair and started fiddling with the stuff on her desk. Then, he started rummaging through her drawers. Notebooks, pens and pencils, old textbooks, paints and brushes…
And then there was the one that she never let him open.
Should he open it, or should he not? It might ruin their friendship if Sakura knew he had been sneaking through things she had tried so hard to keep secret… but then again, how would she find out? Sakura's humming was still heard from downstairs – a sign that the tea was still brewing.
Syaoran slowly and cautiously pulled out the drawer, as if it might be a bomb or something. He carefully peered inside and saw… junk?! And a huge load of it, too. But, what was so secret about junk? Did she not want him to know that she also had an untidy and disorganized side to her too?
But as he dug through the pile of "trash", Syaoran soon learned that this junk maybe wasn't junk after all… but why did they all look so familiar? An eraser he had lost a year ago, a pencil he had lent Sakura and never got back, some crude and floppy paper heart he gave her for Valentine's Day who knows how long ago…
And then it struck him that every single thing in there was a gift of sorts.
From him.
But if that were true… then surely, that would be in here too, wouldn't it? Syaoran fumbled through the seemingly endless pit of random things, and finally he found what he was looking for. But as he reached out to grab it, the door suddenly opened and Sakura stepped in.
"Ok the tea's almos-" But she stopped mid-sentence as she realized that her secret drawer was not really a secret anymore. She freaked and dashed in front of the drawer, closing it behind her back.
"No… Syaoran… I… its… not what you think… really…" Sakura stuttered, now beat red and staring at the ground.
"I know," Syaoran responded calmly, "But I just want to get something out from there… can I?"
Sakura bit her lip. She had a pretty good idea of what he was talking about. But even though she refused to move away, Sakura still let herself be scooted aside as Syaoran opened the drawer once more.
He took the thing out, and to Sakura's horror, it was exactly what she had in mind – the voucher she had been looking at before Syaoran's arrival.
He glanced at the piece of paper, smiling, and handed it over to Sakura. "Read it."
Sakura's face turn even redder, if that was possible, and began to read the sloppy and misspelled words:
To: Sakura
From: Syaoran
.Free Kisses.
Quantity: 20
Valid from: when we turn fifteen to when we get old and die.
Sakura's cheeks were now definitely the reddest of reds. And it didn't help that Syaoran was smiling, either.
"Well," Syaoran said, with a handsome grin, "will you use it?"
Sakura shook her head, still to embarrassed to speak.
"It does say when we turn fifteen or after, right?"
Sakura nodded.
"So… why not now?"
Sakura wasn't even given a chance to protest before Syaoran's lips came crashing down on her own in a sweet, passionate kiss. Sakura was shocked at first, but soon relaxed and gave in, melting in Syaoran's arms.
After a while, Syaoran gently broke the kiss, and smirked at Sakura. "What do you think?"
But Sakura only smiled. "Nineteen more," she whispered, before capturing his lips once more.
A/N: And the fifth one is done! Haha, this is probably not what you had in mind, was it? (at least it wasn't what I had thought of when I first read your idea, lol) But at least I got in some desperately needed fluff, ne? :D
And hopefully the kissing scene was satisfactory... because the thing is... I've never actually kissed someone before... (gasps in background) so I had to base it purely off of other fanfics I've read (-sweatdrops-)
Review!! Ideas are welcome too, but I already have a few planned out and stuff, so it may not be a while until I can get to yours if you give me one. But on the other hand, I (think) I'm going to be aiming for 50 one-shots, if not 100, so I'm gonna need a lot of ideas!! :P
