We Belong

Chapter 7 – Under the Moonlight

--------

"I wonder how our lovely children are doing… Tomoyo just celebrated her year anniversary with Eriol and he's such a good guy…"

"You're very right about that Sonomi… I wish Sakura had a boyfriend too…"

"Don't worry Nadeshiko, she already has one… Maybe not officially but more like one…"

"I just love what you've said Yelan! I wish that they could finally realize their true feelings so they could be engaged as soon as possible!"

"Cheers!"

---------

"So, did your plan worked out?"

"Of course it did… That asshole just fractured her ankle. Surely their plan of going out of town would be, unluckily, postponed… Too bad…" The redhead moron said sarcastically.

"Don't party yet, Yumiko. You aren't still sure about that…"

"Shut up! Don't ruin my happiness… I'm very sure that she can't make it… I'll finally have a chance with Syaoran, just as I planned… evil laugh"

--------

Sakura sat in the plump cushions located in her veranda with her legs outstretched, the other one bundled with bandage. She felt the cold breeze plashing through her as she gazed at the vast mauve sky. The night was just very peaceful, soothing, tranquil.

"Hey, kaijuu! Can I come in?" A piercing annoying voice and a sharp blow from her door disturbed and worst, nettled her.

"Arrghh! It's that baka!" She grumbled to herself. "I. Am. Not. A. KAIJUU! Leave me alone! I hate you!" She shrieked loud, very loud enough for the one in the door to hear.

Syaoran laughed to himself. "Hey, what's with the outburst? So, you're still mad about that cell phone thing huh?" He said in a teasing voice that made the lass angrier.

"Why you! Arggg! That's my private property so you have no right to.. Argg! Just leave me alone and drop dead!"

He burst into total laughter. "Hey, wait a second… Isn't it you, my dear tomboy, who first searched my phone without permission? But, did I ever got mad at you this much?"

"Uhh… Hmm… Hai, I guess so…" She pouted. "Fine, you can now come in…"

Syaoran stepped inside her room having that victorious smirk. Sakura just pouted even more. He walked towards the veranda where she is presently sitting and perched down beside her.

He ruffled her auburn hair. "Hey, gomenasai if I pissed you off that much" He winked and smiled cutely at her.

Sakura slightly smiled back and nodded. "Fine then, you're forgiven…" A pointed, keen look was given to him. "But, whatever you're thinking, snap out of it! I just recorded your game because I love soccer and you know that! Another thing, I captured all those pictures for future purposes, if ever I'll need to blackmail you, I could use some of those pictures you know…" She explained defensively. Syaoran raised his eyebrow at her with a smirk smeared across his lips. Sakura glared at him.

"Yah right, you said so… So were quits eh? Wait a sec, Sakura how the heck did you get here? You're in a sprained condition right?"

"Oh well, this injury can't stop me from going anywhere I want and besides I am…"

"Darn, please quit your stupidity. Onegai! Look, I don't want your injury to become much worst than it already is. For goodness sake Sakura, you must take care of that foot of yours!" He shrieked aggravated. Sakura gulped.

"Okay… Fine, gomen!" She chuckled. "Don't worry, I can still go to our vacation you know…"

"What's funny? This has nothing to do with that darn vacation or whatever that is, this is something about you and your condition!"

"Okay, I'm sorry Syao-kun… It won't happen again, promise!" She embraced his arm and looked up at him.

"Of course it won't cause I'll be watching over you…" He glared at her. Sakura just blinked, having that innocent look. He rolled his eyes and slightly smiled.

Silence interrupted between them as the sky darkens even more. Sakura leaned her head on Syaoran's shoulder while she watched the stars glimmer so lively like tiny little crystals in the sky. He just smiled, staring at her beautiful face with the moonlight reflected on her cheeks.

"Sakura…"

"Hai?"

"Uhhh… Uhmm…There's something I wanna ask you… Would you mind?"

"Go ahead…"

"Umm… Hmmm… I'm just wondering, do you have any plans of getting a boyfriend? You know, entering a relationship… Like—that." He asked, curiosity visibly seen in him. Sakura got up from his shoulders, cocked to him and smiled.

"Of course I do… Every girl does…" She gave a quick and very sure response. Syaoran gasped, a bit surprised of her answer.

'That was fast…' He thought. "You mean, you really are getting a boyfriend? As in, now?"

"Hmmm…. Yup, I'm getting a boyfriend certainly. But I guess now is not the right time." She answered nonchalantly. Syaoran puffed up, satisfied of her answer.

"Why is that so?"

Sakura grinned at him and rested her head back on his shoulders. "Because, I'm very contented with my life today. Especially having you around, I guess I don't really need a boyfriend right now, you will do…" He smiled in delight, leaning his head on top of hers.

"Sakura… I feel the same way too… I'm happy to know that you're still mine, you're still my cherry blossoms…"

"Yah right, and you're still my dear Little Wolf…"

"Yeah, tomboy monster!"

"Oh yeah! You idiot, dummy, jerk, baka, psycho!"

"Clumsy nincompoop!"

"Moron buffoon!"

And the stars sparkled so splendid and as the sky continued to darken, two beautiful figures mingled there with endless laughter, under the moonlight…
