Chapter Seven: New Arrangement
The bad thing about being an ex-pit fighter is your uncanny way of waking up earlier than you really want to. Granted, it didn't help that Sakura woke up in the mansion instead of her dorm room, but she really couldn't complain. The bed was uber comfy, and the mansion was so big that it was hard to hear anything from anyone else. She turned to the small clock on the night stand and saw that it was only 6:30am.
"What the Hell! All I ever want is to sleep in and now on a freakin Saturday I'm up at the ass crack of dawn!" She grumbled as she slipped out of bed. She walked over to the closet, and found a nice set of workout clothes, and figured since she was up she might as well go do something useful. With another sigh she changed and headed toward the basement. She was glad to find it empty. Smiling at the heavy bag in the corner, and the radio nearby… she went over to get some of her pent up aggravation out.
Syaoran
He hadn't seen Sakura since she left the club with Mei Lin last night. He knew she had spent the night in the mansion, because his bike and all the cars were still here when he and the rest of the gang got back around 2am. He should have gone with them last night. After Sakura and his cousin left, he no longer found the club fun. He spent most of the night trying to get through Jamie's thick head, and arguing with Alex and Mika about the two girls they wanted to join. Since he hadn't even had Sakura join, he made Alex and Mika hold off. They grumbled, but agreed… not that they had a choice. It was now 7:00am, and as exhausted as he was… his mother would kill him if he didn't go train for a bit. Especially since he had been slacking the past week. With a sigh he grabbed his training outfit and headed toward the gym. He stopped short hearing music coming from the room. It was odd because no one was usually up this early.
Stunned again! By the same gorgeous girl that had been surprising him at every turn since he had met her almost three months ago. Watching her beat the shit out of the heavy bag was just plain impressing. Her beautiful hair was up in a messy bun, and she was shining with sweat. He had never felt so turned on in his life. The door shutting must have startled her because he watched her miss the bag and almost fall. She glared at him, turning down the music. He wanted nothing more than to throw her on the matt and kiss her… maybe do other things.
Sakura
She was so caught up on the great feeling of letting go of her frustration, that the door shutting completely caught her off guard. She was even more surprised seeing Syaoran standing there gawking at her. She could feel herself blush, but chose to just glare at him, and turn down the music.
"Did you need something?" She asked, grabbing water from the small fridge by the door, and a towel. He was still staring at her and it was both flattering and creepy. She smiled when he smiled at her. Gods he was sexy when he smiled.
"How about a rematch?" His cocky smile made her want to punch him and kiss him… Why did he have to have such an effect on her? She raised an eyebrow at him, ignoring her body.
"You want your ass kicked again?" She asked with a small giggle. He chuckled lightly and her heart jumped. Soooo not fair!
"We'll see… so is that a yes?" He asked, walking into the middle of the gym. There were sparring mats laid out for them to use. With a sigh and a shrug, Sakura walked to him, ready to kick his butt for the second time.
"Are there rules? Is there going to be a wager?" She asked, as they stood in the middle of the room. He actually laughed, and she felt her heart melt. She would never win if he kept laughing like that. He was gorgeous!
"No rules… if I win I get to kiss you." She knew her eyes looked huge… He wanted to kiss her? Holy cow! That cocky smirk was back on his face again. Damn his sexiness!
"Okay… if I win I get to borrow Shadow for all of next week." She smirked back. She laughed seeing him glare and growl.
Syaoran
He was definitely going to have to win this little sparring match. No way was she getting Shadow for a whole week! Not to mention that he just really wanted to kiss her. They both got into a stance, and he was surprised to see how calm and collected she was. He knew if they were ever going to get this fight started that he would have to initiate it, so with a quick swipe of his feet, they had begun.
She was better now that she was focused. He realized fast that he had underestimated her. Their first fight she had been pissed off. Now she was just fighting, and he had to give her tons of credit. She was China's best pit fighter for a reason. He grunted when he received a well placed punch to the gut. Okay… it was time to get serious. With a growl he went at her with everything he had. Making sure not to actually land a punch or anything, he spent his energy deflecting her attacks, and trying to bring her to the ground. He saw his opening when she tried to spin kick him. He grabbed her arms, and like the night outside her dorm, he brought her to the ground. He gently rested on top of her. It was nice not to receive a glare this time around. They were both breathing heavily, but at least she was smiling.
"I let you win." She gasped. He didn't believe that for a minute. He cocked an eyebrow at her.
"So you want me to kiss you?" He winked, and the beautiful blush that formed on her cheeks made him shiver.
"No… I was just saying that so your ego wouldn't inflate." She glared, but he could tell her heart wasn't in the gesture. He chuckled at her. "So are you gonna kiss me or not? I got things to do ya know." He full out laughed at that. With another wink he brought his face close to hers. Even sweating she smelled good. He smiled a second before he kissed her. He smiled because she looked so gorgeous. He smiled because she wanted to kiss him as much as he wanted to kiss her.
Sakura
Sweet fire! Her whole body was burning just from his kiss, and surprising herself; she reached up and pulled him closer. She wasn't ready for him to pull away. Her hand unconsciously went to his hair. It was damp from sweat, but still silky. Using her legs, she wrapped them around his torso, and flipped him to his back. It obviously surprised him, but she didn't give him a chance to say anything. This time she initiated the kiss. His hands wrapped tightly around her waist, and where ever he touched her… she felt flames. When his tongue entered her mouth, and started wrestling with hers, she moaned. She had never felt anything like this before, and she was sure she never wanted it to end.
"I think we should stop." He gasped pulling away. His eyes were glazed and unfocused. She had a feeling hers were too. She nodded in agreement, but neither of them went to move. Sakura figured, being on top, she should move off him. Slowly… she got up, her breathing still ragged. She suddenly felt super self conscious. He slowly got up from the floor too, and was still staring at her. Feeling really stupid, Sakura headed toward the door for a shower. She gasped in shock when he walked after her, and pulled her against him before pinning her to the wall.
"Do I have to fight you again just to get another one?" He whispered, staring into her eyes. Sakura must have shaken her head no because he was suddenly kissing her again. His hands found her ass, and she jumped into his arms, locking her legs around his waist, and her arms around his neck as she let herself get lost in the sexy, annoying man she had secretly come to like.
Tomoyo
She was in a small panic as she found her cousin's room empty. She knew Eriol was laughing at her from behind as she dragged him around the mansion to find Sakura.
"Have you checked the training room, Love?" Eriol asked as they walked back into the house from the garage. All the cars and bikes were accounted for so Sakura hadn't left.
"You think she would be in there?" Tomoyo asked, already heading toward the door that led to the basement. Instead of heading to the actual floor of the training room, she headed toward the bleacher area. She figured it would give her a better view of the room, and if Sakura wasn't there…
"I think we found her." Eriol whispered, handing Tomoyo her camera. Tomoyo quickly and quietly started filming her cousin making out with Syaoran.
"She's gonna kill me for this later, but holy shit this is some good stuff!" She whispered back, holding in the urge to squeal.
"We should really leave them alone." Eriol suggested. Tomoyo raised her eyebrow at her boyfriend. No doubt Eriol was currently thinking of all the ways to annoy Syaoran with this. With a sigh she turned off her camera, and followed Eriol out of the gym. As she watched him head for the EXIT, she headed toward the actual workout area. She was totally going to catch her cousin making out with Li, close up and personal! With her camera rolling once again, she got ready right by the door, counted to three, then bust in. The surprised look on Sakura and Syaoran's faces was priceless!
"Smile for the camera!" She giggled as Sakura shoved Syaoran away from her.
Sakura
Her face was on fire from the blush that was currently taking it over. She had been caught red handed making out with Syaoran… BY HER COUSIN! Tomoyo's smiling face, and that damn camera, were currently zeroed in on her.
"Daidouji! I'm going to break that camera." Syaoran growled. She watched as Tomoyo giggled and flee from the room. She cautioned a look at Syaoran. His hair was a mess from her hands running through it, his face was flushed, and his lips were slightly swollen from her kisses. He was the sexiest thing on two legs she had ever seen… and if she had her way… he would be hers.
"I-I should probably go find Moyo, and get that tape before she shares it with everyone in your gang… and at my school." Sakura stuttered, concentrating on the floor instead on his handsome face. She noticed his feet come into her view, and his hand was turning her face to look into his gorgeous amber eyes.
"Are you embarrassed by me?" His question confused her. If anyone should be embarrassed by anyone it should be him embarrassed by her.
"No… should I be?" She asked back, feeling the urge to kiss him again. Geez… when did she become such a perv? He smiled at her, and she suddenly realized that it wasn't a teasing smile he usually shot her. This one seemed tender.
"Be my girlfriend?" His bold question surprised her. She would never have guessed that the leader of the Wolf Gang would want to date her. Words escaped her, so she only nodded.
Syaoran
Girlfriend… she agreed to be only his. He could kiss her and talk to her, and follow her around without worrying about some other guy taking her away. He had fallen for her the first night they fought. He had realized it when she took Shadow for a joy ride. And if it was the last thing he did… he was going to make her fall for him too. He wasn't stupid. She was gorgeous, and smart, and talented.
"You should go find Tomoyo. Meet me in the garage in an hour." He spoke, caressing her cheek. She was his.
"Y-yea… you're probably right." Sakura answered, making no move to leave. He brushed his lips against hers in a gentle kiss.
"Do you enjoy my kisses, Ying Fa?" He whispered, millimeters from her lips. To prove his point, she kissed him. He chuckled in the kiss, pulling away before it could get out of control again.
"Ok, I'm gonna go now. See you in an hour." Sakura whispered. With a wink, he watched her quickly exit the room. With a sigh, he headed for his room to shower and change. He sure hoped this relationship was a good idea. Knowing that his last few didn't go so well… he knew both Tomoyo and Mei Lin would kill him if he hurt Sakura… not that he was planning to hurt her or anything. He was also going to have to talk to Sakura about joining the gang… life was starting to get a little complicated.
Sakura
She had once had a friend addicted to crack, and another to alcohol. She doubted they would believe she was addicted to a man… not just any man… a hot, sexy, hunky man. Actually she was currently addicted to his kisses. The man knew what he was doing! She had showered and changed, and was currently on the hunt for her cousin and the tape. She heard giggling coming from Mei Lin's room, and grew suspicious. Sakura knocked and waited.
"Come in." Came Mei Lin's muffled voice. Sakura turned the handle and walked into the room, finding her cousin, Eriol and Jamie all sitting with Mei Lin, and watching the TV.
"Say hi to the camera!" Tomoyo's voice sounded from the TV. Sakura glared at her cousin as she rushed to the set and grabbed the tape from the player. The four other people in the room didn't really care. They were too busy laughing.
"Tomo… I'm going to kill you!" Sakura yelled, going after her cousin. Tomoyo screamed and ran out the door, Sakura hot on her trail. Sakura could hear the others following after them, but didn't care as she chased Tomoyo all over the mansion.
"Come on Kura! It's not like I showed the whole house." Tomoyo yelled as she continued to run. Sakura glared as she ran faster to catch up.
"That's not the point." Sakura yelled back as she followed, slowly gaining on her prey. Sakura smirked when Tomoyo ran into the pool room. There were a few people hanging out, but Sakura didn't really take notice. As soon as she was close enough she grabbed the back of Tomoyo's shirt and flung her into the pool. The water drowned out Tomoyo's surprised scream. Sakura smirked and crossed her arms, waiting for her cousin to resurface.
"I can't believe you threw me into the pool!" Tomoyo shouted when she swam to the edge to get out. Sakura giggled, walking toward the garage to meet Syaoran.
"That's what you get for showing people private videos. Maybe next time you'll rethink that." She winked at her cousin. She smiled at the few people she saw as she headed to the garage. She found him leaning against the garage door by Shadow and talking to two people she had no clue about. One was an older man… maybe late 40s. He had brown hair and hazel eyes. The other was around her age… curly black hair and greenish eyes. Not knowing whether to leave them alone or not, she just stood at the door.
"Ying Fa, come here." Syaoran said smiling to her. She had no clue where the nickname came from, but she liked hearing him call her that. She slowly walked over to her boyfriend… she liked the sound of that. "Ying Fa, this is Wolf."
"Nice to meet you." She said, bowing to him. So this was the leader of the gang. She could tell that when he was younger he was a very good looking guy.
"It's a pleasure to meet you as well. Xiao Lang I agree with you." Wolf answered. Sakura shot Syaoran a confused look. Syaoran merely smiled at her, wrapping his arm around her waist.
"And this is Sage. He just got back from Hong Kong." Syaoran continued, introducing the guy standing with Wolf. She did a small bow to him too.
"I heard you kicked Xiao Lang's ass!" Sage spoke. That made her giggle.
"A couple times." Sakura said, winking to Syaoran. Sage thought that was hilarious and burst out laughing.
"We'll see you later. Meeting at 6:00pm tonight." Wolf spoke as he and a laughing Sage went into the house.
Syaoran
He was actually nervous. Wolf had granted his request without question which was both weird and awesome. Sakura was currently staring at him, waiting for him to speak.
"So is there a reason we are meeting in the garage?" She questioned. He smiled sheepishly at her, and grabbed her hand. He slowly dragged her over to his surprise. She looked at him confused when they stopped in front of something covered with a sheet. With a huge smile he knew was on his face, Syaoran removed the sheet. Underneath was a black Kawasaki Ninja that he had had specially made just for her. It had pink cherry blossoms scattered all over it, and was a sleek black. Mei Lin had told him to get her a bike, but after she took Shadow, he knew he would have to get her one anyways.
"Do you like it?" He asked, after not hearing anything from her. He chanced a look to her face, and was concerned to see tears in her eyes. "Did I upset you?" He sighed when she shook her head.
"It's for me?" She choked out, and he had to chuckle.
"Of course it is. Do you like it?" He asked again, hoping for a better answer.
"I haven't received a present in a really long time." She whispered. He had barely heard her. "It's beautiful. Arigato."
"You're welcome." He said, feeling on top of the world when she smiled at him. He would have to get her gifts more if she kept smiling at him like that. "It's tradition to name your bike."
"Shade… her name is Shade." Sakura said, as he watched her run her hand over the smooth paint. "Can I take her for a test ride?" She looked so adorable with that innocent face… there was no way he could tell her no.
"In a little bit. First I wanted to ask if you would like to join the Wolves." Syaoran said, running a hand through his hair. "I mean… Mei Lin and Tomoyo want you to join, and Wolf already said you could." Gods he sounded stupid. He heard her giggle, and looked at her.
"I would love to join." She giggled. He found himself smiling. This day was just getting better and better.
"Well then, let's go get your tattoo done, and then maybe grab lunch?" He asked, walking over to grab his helmet, and the one he had bought her to match her bike. Her beautiful emerald eyes lit up, when he handed her the helmet. He would never tire of seeing the look of shock on her face. He smiled when she nodded. "Follow me then." He finished, getting on Shadow, and waiting for her to get on Shade so they could head out.
Sakura
Shade was the most beautiful thing she had ever owned! She couldn't believe Syaoran had bought her such an expensive and lavish gift!
"How does Shade handle?" Syaoran's voice interrupted her thoughts as they sped toward the center of Tokyo. She should have known that her helmet would be equipped with a com-link system too.
"I think she might be better than Shadow." Sakura giggled in jest. Syaoran's sexy chuckle sounded. She was glad he knew she was joking. "In all seriousness though, How can I ever thank you?" Syaoran's chuckle sounded again.
"Well, I think a kiss would do the trick." Syaoran said. She could hear the smirk in his voice. "Besides, Mei Lin was going to get you one. I just beat her too it." Sakura giggled again as they headed off an exit, and into the heart of Tokyo. They stopped in front of a tattoo parlor, which was hidden in a back alley. The place looked super clean. She followed Syaoran in, since he obviously knew what was going on more than she did. She kept thinking about all the people she knew who had tattoos. Sakura figured if her cousin could go through it, then she could.
"Li! I was expecting you later." A man with brown hair and matching eyes spoke, coming out from the back of the parlor.
"John… this is Sakura. I'm assuming Wolf called you?" Syaoran said, shaking the man's hand. Sakura felt out of place again as the two men talked about her.
"Yea I have everything ready. Where's she getting it?" John asked, looking over Sakura. Syaoran raised an eyebrow at her, as if waiting for her to answer.
"Umm… where do the girls usually get it?" Sakura asked, not knowing the first thing about tattoos. John chuckled softly, and Syaoran smiled.
"Mei Lin and Tomoyo have them on their upper left shoulder blade. A couple girls incorporated them into tramp stamps, and some have them on their ankle." Syaoran answered with a shrug. "Most of us guys have them on their right pecks." And to prove that, Syaoran lifted his shirt to show her the tattoo. Sakura had to make herself not gape at his sexy body. She wanted nothing more than to run her hands all over his abs.
"I want mine like my cousin's then." Sakura said, peeling her gaze away from Syaoran, and smiling at John.
"Too easy!" John said, clapping his hands together. "Bring her to my torture chair Li. Miss Sakura, you're going to have to take off your shirt so I can get to your back." Sakura nodded and followed Syaoran and John back into the parlor, away from the eyes of any passerby's.
"No need to be modest, Ying Fa." Syaoran spoke with a wink, when Sakura didn't take off her shirt. She held her breath when he walked up to her and caressed her cheek. She suddenly felt embarrassed and stupid. "What's wrong?"
"I've never had anyone see that much of me." Sakura whispered, having a feeling that John could hear what she was saying anyways. She figured that he was just being polite. Syaoran smiled that adorable smile that made her feel beautiful.
"There's nothing to worry about. You are gorgeous. Besides… you'll be facing me. John will only see your back. And if you don't want me to look I'll keep my eyes closed the whole time." She let out her breath. There was no way this guy was for real!
"I don't think you could manage that…" She giggled with a wink. With another breath she took off her shirt and sat in the chair ready to get this over with. Syaoran came and sat in front of her and grabbed her hand.
"You're going to want to squeeze." He said seriously, and she felt nervous giggles come up.
Mei Lin
After Sakura and her annoying cousin had left for the tattoo shop, she had decided to get some homework done, then maybe go have a chat with Wolf. Unfortunately Jamie was trying and succeeding to distract her by walking around her room naked.
"Would you please put some clothes on?" She asked for what had to be the 30th time. He chuckled.
"You don't really want me to do that." Jamie said in a sexy voice that got her hot. Damn him for turning her one so easily. He moved up the bed, as if a predator was stalking his prey. He took her paper and pen away from her, placing it on the night stand. He kissed her passionately, making her moan. She loved how he grabbed her around the waist and pulled her to him, pushing her into the bed. Her legs went around his waist, and she wished she was as naked as him.
"I have a test Monday, and you're not helping me study." She growled, when his kisses traveled down her neck. When his hand traveled up her shirt another moan escaped her lips.
"I'll help you study later." Jamie's muffled voice reached her ears. She knew he was still trying to make up for last night, and she wasn't complaining. When he rid her of her pants, and entered her hard, she totally forgot about her test, and everything else. She loved him and the feelings he brought out in her.
Tomoyo
She still couldn't believe her cousin had thrown her into the pool. She giggled to herself… she totally deserved it though. The tape of Sakura and Syaoran making out in the gym was now stored in a secret place that only she knew of. She was currently looking for her amazing boyfriend. He had disappeared when Wolf got there, and she was bored. Mei Lin and Jamie were busy… Sakura was out with Syaoran, and she really didn't hang out with anyone in the house.
"There you are!" She sighed when Eriol came out from the coms room. He smiled at her, and brought her into his arms. "What have you been doing?"
"Bringing Wolf up to speed on Sakura and Tiger." He said, kissing his lightly. "Have you missed me?" His cute little smirk had always made her swoon.
"If you're going to make fun of me I'll just go find something else to do." She spoke, shooting him a glare. He chuckled at her.
"I've missed you too, Love." He said, kissing her again. "Sakura and Syaoran should be home in an hour. Wolf's having a meeting tonight, and I was thinking we could try going to the club again." She smiled at him.
"It would be nice to go to the club and actually have everyone remain with some kind of fight happening." Tomoyo sighed.
"Club it is." Eriol laughed. "Come on… I haven't got to spend much time with you lately, and I've miss you." His husky voice was one she knew promised a good afternoon in bed.
Sakura
She would never have though a tattoo would hurt that much! She was proud though… she didn't cry. Even though a couple times she had wanted to.
"Please tell me it's over!" She begged, when John started putting some cream on her back, and pressing down, making her wince. John's chuckle sounded, but she was more interested in Syaoran's face.
"It's over Ying Fa." He said, caressing her cheek. "I should have had you ride with me. Do you think you can bring Shade back, or should I call Mei Lin?" His concern for her made her swoon. He was amazing… she wished she had seen this side of him first. At least she got to see it now.
"I think I can manage. It feels better with the cream on it. Though my shirt is going to make it hurt." She said looking to her tank top that Syaoran was holding for her.
"I have to put a bandage on it anyways." John said. She could hear the sound of tape wripping, and felt him place a paper towel on her back. "Keep it on for an hour, then take it off. Wash it lightly with soap and water. Make sure to keep it moist with this lotion." John said handing her the cream. "It should be healed in a couple weeks."
"Thanks." Sakura mumbled, putting her shirt back on.
"I'm sure I'll have more for you soon." Syaoran said to John before they headed out. Sakura was waiting for him on her bike. This new lifestyle was going to take some getting used to… She hoped she could handle it.
Mansion
When Sakura got back to the mansion with Syaoran, her back hurt like hell, and her cousin was already waiting for her. She was shocked when Syaoran grabbed her hand to walk with her to their friends. This was obviously a shock to her cousin as well, if the expression on Tomoyo's face was anything to go by.
"Where have you been?" Tomoyo asked before they even made it to the door. Sakura smiled sheepishly…
"Took out Shade for a ride, then got my tattoo." Sakura mumbled. Tomoyo's eyes looked like they were about to pop out of her head.
"KAWAII! I want to see it!" Tomoyo yelled, hoping down the couple of steps to meet them. Syaoran held up his hand, effectively stopping her cousin's attack.
"The bandage needs to stay on it for another fifteen minutes." Syaoran explained, before dragging Sakura into the house, followed by Tomoyo and Eriol.
"So are ya'll like dating now?" Mei Lin asked from the couch, seeing their entwined hands. Sakura looked to Syaoran, who did that cute smiling thing again.
"Sakura agreed to give me a chance." Syaoran shrugged. Mei Lin actually laughed.
"Hope you don't screw it up." Mei Lin shot, receiving a glare from her dear cousin.
"One of these days Mei Lin…" Syaoran growled.
"Yea yea… you're gonna shoot me… whatever." Mei Lin said, rolling her eyes. Sakura couldn't help but giggle. Her friends and boyfriend were certainly an odd pair.
"Moyo wants to go to the club tonight." Eriol said from behind. Sakura smiled, seeing his arms around Tomoyo's waist. Her cousin was lucky to have found a great guy. Sakura smiled up at Syaoran. She was pretty lucky too… she hoped.
"As long as there's no repeat of last night I'm in!" Mei Lin smirked. It must have been a Li thing because she looked scarily like Syaoran.
"Maybe tonight we can actually enjoy the entire night!" Sakura sighed. "Come on girls… you can help me clean my tattoo." She finished, before kissing Syaoran and heading up to her room with her cousin and best friend. Once in her room, she stripped off her tank top, and sat on the vanity chair.
"I'll get some soap and water." Mei Lin said as she headed into the bathroom. Tomoyo gently started pulling off the bandage. Sakura winces when a piece stuck to her skin a little too much.
"Umm… Mei… I don't think this is right…" Tomoyo shouted. Sakura turned to look at her cousin, concerned. Syaoran had seen it and hadn't said anything about it being the wrong one. Mei Lin came out of the bathroom with a bowl and towel. She stopped and almost dropped the stuff on the floor whens he saw Sakura's back.
"Wolf told me that's when she was getting but I didn't believe it!" Mei Lin gasped, continuing toward Sakura. Sakura frowned at the two girls.
"What one did I get? John wouldn't show me and Syao wouldn't tell." Sakura asked, trying to see it in the mirror. She gasped seeing the all black wolf with piercing blue eyes. "Holy shit!"
"Well looks like we have another leader…" Mei Lin sighed.
