Bonus chapter: Flowery Valentine's day

Scarlet sat up on her bed and stretched. She smiled and hopped out of bed to get dressed but as she walked to the bathroom she looked at the calendar.

`February 14th… St valentines day`, a smile graced upon her lips

`oh boy, Sakura and Ino will totally be bothering Sasuke all day` she thought. She showered and dressed in her usual black shoulderlus top and dark red shorts with black leggings and went to make breakfast. Kimi was already up and ready making breakfast. "Morning sleepy head" she greeted

Scarlet smiled and sat down "where are the boys?" she asked. Kimi sat down with two plates of pancakes

"still asleep, I would just leave them cause Yue's been training with Kakashi and Kero's been out all night patrolling" she explained

"I see...did you see the date?"

"yup! valentines day, Sakura and Ino have been talking about it non stop" she said giggling, Scarlet giggled too at the thought of the Sasuke fan girls showering him with gifts. She stood up and tiptoed to Yue's room "where are you goin" Kimi whispered, Scarlet smiled and held up a rose.

"it's for Yue, he needs some love once in a while" she whispered while opening the door, she quietly walked in and set the rose with a note on the pillow next to him, she kissed his cheek and snuck out closing the door quietly.

"aw, that is so cute" Kimi squealed, Scarlet rolled her eyes and grabbed her coat "I'm heading to the flower shop, I said to Ino that I'd give her a hand today"

Kimi nodded "I'm going out too, Shikamaru and me are going cloud watching" she said. Scarlet raised an eyebrow "since when do you watch the clouds?" she asked, Kimi grinned and skipped out of the door "since I first saw him on TV" she answered, Scarlet laughed and shook her head "thought so" she said while locking the door.(in Yue's room)

Yue slowly opened his eyes and yawned `well, better get up to train with Kakashi` he thought. Something red caught his eye, on the pillow next to him was a single red rose, he saw the note and began to read it

Roses are red, Violets are blue, Sugar is sweet and so are you. Happy valentines day Yue, love Scarlet XX P.S gone to the flower shop to help Ino and Kakashi said take the day off and relax, I'll be home later X

Yue smiled softly and sniffed the rose `Scarlet, Happy valentine's day to you to` he thought happily

Scarlet skipped along the road, watching lots of couples give each other gifts to show their love. `guess they do celebrate it here` she thought As she reached the Yamanaka flower shop she turned the handle and tried to open the door "it's stuck" she muttered, she pulled and pulled until it burst open and different coloured flowers poured out the door and buried her.

"OMG! Scarlet are you alright?" a worried Ino asked frantically. Scarlet's head popped out of the flowers

"uh huh" she mumbled as she spat a daisy out of her mouth "Ino…what the hell is with all these flowers?" she yelled

"I don't know! I woke up this morning and the shop is covered with them!" she yelled back as she pulled the poor girl out of the flower pile.

Ino suddenly started to giggle "what's so funny?" Scarlet asked, Ino showed her by picking a petal off her hair "your covered in pollen and petals" she grinned. Scarlet glared at the blond girl for laughing at her "come on silly, let's get you cleaned up" she led the card captor inside the flower infested shop "and the shop after wards" she said sheepishly.

Once scarlet was free of pollen the girls got busy by sweeping the petals in bin bags and keeping the full ones in small bunches to sell. Lot's of men had come in to buy big bunches of flowers making the girls exhausted. "phew some valentine's day huh?" Ino asked

"your telling me…wanna go get lunch?" Scarlet asked

"sure"

They both left the shop and locked it, once they were gone a soft glow emerged from the shop and the once flowerless shop was now full of flowers of different kinds.

(at the BBQ restaurant)

"so are you planning to give anyone anything?" Ino asked, Scarlet blushed "well…uh…I left Yue a rose while he was asleep this morning" she said. Ino squealed "that is so cute…do you like him?"

Scarlet chocked on her water and blushed even redder "Wha- what! As in Like like?" she chocked out. Ino nodded

"well…uh? I actually love him…"

"OMG I KNEW IT!" She squealed making Scarlet sweat drop "you didn't let me finish Ino" she blandly said, Ino blushed and laughed sheepishly "Sorry Scarlet, continue"

"ok, I love him…but more like a big brother, he looks out for me, gives me great advice and treats me as a little sister. But I never really admitted it" she said

(outside the BBQ restaurant)

Yue softly smiled after hearing Scarlet's words, he too learned to love the girl like a little sister. He knew that she couldn't be with him forever, but as long as she loved him and needed him it made him happy. He walked off to a grassy field and relaxed.

(back with Scarlet and Ino)

The girls giggled and gossiped as they walked back to the shop with smiles on their face's "oh look there's Sasuke kun!" Ino yelled. Scarlet looked her way and shyly waved at the boy, she saw him smile a bit and he made his way over. "hey" he said

"hi Sasuke" Scarlet said with a smile

"you mind if I stick with you guys for a while, the fan girls have been chasing me all day" he asked

Scarlet rolled her eyes "I thought so, sure we were just heading back to Ino's shop" she said as the trio walked, the girls explained to the Uchiha about what happened at the shop "you should have seen her Sasuke kun!" Ino laughed "she was covered in pollen and petals from head to toe! It was soooo funny" she finished

Scarlet shot her a cold glare as she opened the door

"aahh!"

Yet again she was buried by hundreds of flowers. Ino stood with her mouth open and Sasuke raised his eyebrows, Scarlet dug her way out of the mountain of flowers, spitting out some petals "what the?…that's the second time!" Ino yelled. Sasuke rolled his eyes at her dramatic ways and lifted Scarlet out of the flowers. "there's something fishy going on here" she mumbled. A sudden tingle caught in her head, she saw herself watch a very easy capture she gasped "I know what's causing this!" she said victoriously

"what?" Ino asked. Scarlet winked at the confused girl "what we're dealing with here is the flower card" she announced to her friends.

Ino grinned "that explains the mountains of flowers, the shop must have caught it's attention!" she said

Scarlet nodded "yup, and I bet she just wanted to be sure that you had enough flowers for the villagers since it's a special occasion. Now the question is…where to find it"

The trio made there way into the shop and looked around "not in here Scarlet" Sasuke said. Scarlet put her hand to her chin, she snapped her fingers "Hey Ino, show us where the door to the roof is" she said. Ino lead them on the roof as told "Scarlet, is that it?" Sasuke asked

She turned to find a glowing pale woman with blonde, tightly curled bunches and a long puffy pink dress, She was twirling around giggling. Scarlet slowly and cautiously walked forward, the gentle spirit noticed the girl and smiled at her, it took her hand and twirled her around gracefully.

Sasuke smiled a bit as he heard Scarlet giggle with the spirit "guys it's fine, she's harmless, she wants to meet you" she urged. Sasuke and Ino shrugged and walked towards Scarlet and the spirit. "she's beautiful" Ino commented, the spirit nodded her head in thanks and let Scarlet down. Scarlet stepped backed and bowed to the Spirit "time to join your friends Flower" she said smiling. The spirit bowed before Scarlet and nodded, She held up the key and chanted the spell.

"Key of Clow

Power of Magic, Power of Light

Surrender the wand, the force ignite

RELEASE!"

The key spun wildly and transformed into the staff of Clow, Scarlet twirled it and held it up "I command you to return to you power confined Flowery"

Her staff touched the card and the spirit was sucked in by a pink cloud. The light dimmed and the captured card floated into Scarlets awaiting hands "Nice one Scarlet!" Ino cheered, Scarlet grinned and winked "let's clean the shop, I think more customers will come in now"

(2 hours later)

After saving the best flowers and getting rid of the spoiled ones, the trio sold the different flowers to husbands and boyfriends until sunset

"I'm pooped" Ino sighed, slumping in a seat. Scarlet and Sasuke did the same. "well I'm heading home, see you two later" Scarlet said as she got up and left. Sasuke sighed, `dam, after all this fuss, I didn't get her anything` he thought

He spotted a very unusual flower on the counter. It was like a rose but it was a deep purple colour `Scarlet loves that colour… perfect`

"Ino, I want that rose, how much do I owe you" he said as he brought out his wallet. Ino shook her head and handed him the flower with a white ribbon on the stem "free. You better hurry up if you wanna catch up to her" she said winking. Sasuke smirked and dashed out of the shop.

"Scarlet wait up!" Sasuke yelled. The card captor turned and smiled at the Uchiha. He stopped in front of her, quite close to her face, he held up the rose "Happy valentines day" he said.

Scarlet blushed and gently took the rose from him. He leaned in for a kiss, but felt lips on his cheek instead of his lips "thanks Sasuke, your very sweet" she said quietly, she ran off to the direction of her house. Sasuke frowned `dam! Almost had her` he thought as he stuffed his hands in his pockets and walked home

(House)

Scarlet slammed the door shut and leaned against it sighing `could I be…falling in love with him?` she thought sniffing the rose.

"well, your home Scarlet, have fun today?" Kero asked as he strolled out from his room, Scarlet smiled "yeah I did, good luck on patrols Kero" she said. Kero nuzzled her hand as a thanks and flew out the balcony window. She smiled and walked to Yue's room to tell him about the capture until she bumped into him at the door. She felt his hand on her head

"thought you'd never come home Scarlet" he joked. She playfully hit him smiling "thank you for the rose by the way, it was very sweet of you" he said, he knelt down and hugged the girl "Bear in mind Scarlet, I'm always here for you, your like a little sister to me" he said smirking.

Scarlet gasped and pulled back blushing "you heard?" she asked embarrassed, Yue nodded "don't worry, I'm fine as big brother. As long as you need me, I'm happy" he said smiling. Scarlet grinned and hugged him tightly "I love you Yue" she whispered, Yue smiled and stroked her soft red hair "I as well, Scarlet. I as well"
