-.-


Sakura was surprised when she scooped Syaoran's unconscious form the floor. She knew that being in Kurogane's body made her stronger, that she able to do things which she couldn't before. Lifting big groceries bag like a piece of cake.

And now, in her arm, she has that sweet cake, erm…, boy.

Carefully, Sakura put Syaoran on empty couch before open the windows and let the fresh air fill the room. It was late afternoon, she liked this time the most because everything looked serene and beauty with faded golden and red rays. She never learn about art, she doesn't sure that she has a good sense in art. But Sakura knew that the sleeping figure before her is beauty with all light effect.

No. even without those dazzling light effect, Syaoran is handsomely adorable. It was his invisible strength that made him handsome. It was his determination that made him adorable. It was the everlasting fire in his amber eyes that made him alluring. It was his naïve blush that made him irresistible. It was…

Because he is Syaoran.

Sakura no longer paid attention about her surroundings. Fai was there to help Kurogane. Even though it embarrassed her for everybody to see her naked body, and that Kurogane knew nothing about womanly things, she paid no mind. Instead, she focused on her savior.

Syaoran was there when she woke up and knew nothing. Together they travelled through dimension to obtain her feathers. Oh, yeah, said about feathers… she recalled someone said something about pure water that could purify someone's body. She made a mental note to investigating tomorrow. There's a possibility that the purify water have something to do with her feather.

As Sakura watched the boy in his slumber, she noticed that blush in Syaoran's face faded gradually. She wished that Syaoran will wake up soon.

Sakura took Syaoran's hand in her -his- own hand. Now, the boy's hand was smaller and less calloused. She didn't know why but felt happy even though just holding hand like this.

Later then Sakura noticed that Syaoran's eyebrow knitted together, as if he was having nightmare. She remembered something about the healing power of touching, so without rethink, she placed her forehead against Syaoran's forehead. She stayed like that for a moment until sleepiness take over her consciousness.

-_-

Sakura felt something moving beneath her. That little movement causing her to wake up from her unintentional sleep. When she open her eyes, she glad that Syaoran stirred up from unconsciousness.

Sakura saw the boy blinked his eyes several time before wide-open it, half mouth open and close like a fish, so cute.

"You finally wake up. I'm worried that it will take longer because you loss so much blood," said Sakura in her heavy voice.

"I..uh..a…" muttered Syaoran before he decline his head, hiding his blush.

Sakura looked at him innocently, not aware of their close proximity, "What's wrong, Syaoran?"

Syaoran didn't answer it directly, he didn't have heart to push Sakura away though he didn't want her -him- that near.

"No, Princess. It just…" Syaoran decided to lift his head and look at her -him- straight in the eyes, "..um, you're so heavy…"

Sakura squealing as she back warded. Now that she thought about it, she was lay on top of Syaoran while he was unconscious.

"I'm so sorry…I didn't…" she stuttered incoherently.

"Um, it's fine, Princess. I want to go to lavatory if you excuse me," said the poor brunette as another blush raising in his face.

Sakura just gave him a soft 'um'.

She felt bad right now. It was obvious that Syaoran feeling unwell for reason she didn't know, but she felt happy that she able to approach him that way, which made her feels like a horrible person being happy upon other's suffering.

Now that she remembered their prior position, Sakura feels heat crept up in her face. Their face was so close, so close that she can count how many eye lashes Syaoran has. And she felt some comfort with their body tangled together like that, with Syaoran beneath her…

NO!! Sakura screamed in her mind. I'm having perverted mind about Syaoran!!! Well, it's true that I like him in that kind of like and it seemed that he has the same feeling but…What if his feeling toward me just a loyalty? No, it's not that!

I mean…ugh…why it is so hard to say so suddenly?! I'm not supposed to have think about us in that way. Otherwise…

Sakura could feel something stirred in her –Kurogane'san- body. And she knew the sign, and she could feel it.

Slowly but she felt the pants became tight all of sudden.

Sakura sweat dropped, cried in her conscious mind, as she tried to deny an obvious bulge in her pants.

Then she recalled the way she cuddling on Syaoran, and the way the boy blushing, and the way THAT boy retreat to the toilet. She wished, with every single luck she has, that Syaoran not retreated to the toilet because he felt that bulge. Or else, she will never have gut to face Syaoran.

Too bad that the more Sakura denied it, the more that bulge need her attention.

-_-

Sakura bit her lips.

She didn't know what exactly wrong with her, which she knew there was certainly NOTHING wrong with her.

But she felt wrong in many ways anyway.

She could blame everything because she wasn't in her actual body, that it was Kurogane'san's body that she used since their body switched.

But she felt somewhat partially guilty.

That afternoon, she scared Syaoran. Though Syaoran didn't say it to her, Sakura knew that Syaoran uncomfortable with her being in Kurogane's body. She glad that Syaoran drop that matter as that.

It was a good thing that Sakura could calm 'that' down.

Until late afternoon when she help Fai prepare the dishes.

She knew that Kurogane'san has special affection toward the motherly figure that is Fai. So off course she did know that that so called special affection will result in special attention. But Sakura didn't know that Kurogane'san's attention toward the blond was this strong.

Sakura felt shy to admit it, or to reveal that Kurogane'san's body reacted strongly toward certain blond. She thought it was normal that she will react to Syaoran, but to Fai as well? She didn't want this to happen…dear God!

Nobody will happy to hear that. She could imagine how her traveler companion will react to this news. Syaoran certainly will not happy that she reacted to other than him, not that she will ever told him that. And Kurogane'san probably will cursing because someone liking Fai -his Fai-, not that she like Fai'san in the same way Kurogane'san did. While Fai…Well, Fai will smiling and began with his usual teasing like always, but how can you tell someone 'Excuse me, but I'm aroused when I see you, Fai'san' and then asked 'How to un-arouse me?' as if un-arouse was even a word to begin with. She certainly will not saying that!! That's too vulgar for her to speak.

"Sakura'kun, Syaoran'kun, I think now's the time for you to return to your room. So, be a good boy and sleep," Fai'san said on the doorway of the living room before vanish to attend another thing.

"Oh, is it that late, already?" Sakura asked more to herself as her eyes look through the windows.

"Princess," Syaoran called from his place. He too not moved an inch from his previous seat on the cushion.

Somehow, Sakura felt calmer when she looked in his amber eyes. So honest all of the time.

Slowly, Syaoran reached his hands and placed it upon Sakura's hands. Their eyes locked into each other gaze, then Syaoran gave her that smile again.

"Don't worry, Sakura'hime, everything will turn out alright."

"Is it?"

"I believe it."

It silenced Sakura. She took her time to let the word to sink in her mind. She felt bad for making Syaoran worry about her, when he already done so much to her. It supposed to be her to support him, not the otherwise. But still, she wanted him to shower her with his undivided attention.

"Nee, Syaoran'kun…" she called in quiet voice, her voice wavering.

"What is it, Princess?" Syaoran asked back, he put more pressure on his hands to encouraging the little girl inside the big body.

Sakura lift her face and locked her gaze with Syaoran once again. Her now red eyes pleading before words flow from her throat, "Can I hug you?"

Well, it does surprised Syaoran. He tensed for a moment before he stilled his face. He tried to relax a bit while chanting 'it was Sakura in his body', and reached his hands. Sakura leaned forward to catch Syaoran's smaller body in her arms.

It was that smell again, Sakura thought. She often wonders why Syaoran always smelled like earth, like wood, like fire, but he also smelled like desert and honey all the same time. And it always calmed her…

She sure that there is none in her heart other than Syaoran, her Syaoran, before released the hug. Well, not completely released the hug yet, just enough to let her to look directly into Syaoran's eyes once again. She was so happy to find that it was her in his amber eyes.

Slowly, Sakura leaned closer, so close that she finally close the gap between their lips.

In that moment, Sakura knew with her heart that everything would turn out right. That they will have their happy ending.

o.o

The next morning… well, not exactly morning because it was dawn to be precise.

Kurogane, being the one who always wake up first in the morning for routine exercise made Sakura blinked her eyes that time, only to find that the world still covered with sheer darkness.

She felt happy knowing that she wake up first. She glanced at girl figure which lying next to her, the way Kurogane'san curled up in his sleep looked so cute. She bet that it was because the abdominal pain, otherwise he would not sleep in fetal position. She took her time to do the morning routing in the toilet before decided to wake up Syaoran.

The door cracked open slightly to reveal a dark room. Only the dim light from the hallway which barely enough to lighten the sleeping chamber. Sakura carefully padded her feet upon the wooden floor to stop next the bedding.

Sakura surprised, her mind freeze when she saw two figure of man there. The way Fai cuddle and nuzzle to Syaoran make her heart tighten all of sudden.

She know that Fai often play 'mommy' with all of them, but he never cuddle or nuzzle any of them to show his affection except Moko'chan before. Sakura believed that the blond haired man probably nuzzle and cuddle Kurogane'san in private but… not with Syaoran…
