A/N: thank you for all the great reviews! Here's chapter 2 of simultaneous Eq. Whee!
Disclaimer: I do not own Card Captor Sakura.
Syaoran did get it the next day. Toya was waiting behind the door with a frying pan in hand. As the door opened, Sakura clung tightly to her brother while yelling for Syaoran to escape to her room, which was what he just did. Sakura then stomped on Toya's foot ran up to her own room and slammed the door shut. The both of them could hear pounding and shouts of 'GAKI!' coming from the other side of the door. After a few minutes, the pounding finally stopped.
"What the hell?" Syaoran exclaimed, "Seriously Sakura, I think you're brother's mad." Sakura laughed nervously, thinking of yesterday's conversation with her brother. "He's just a little over-protective, I think." Syaoran laughed. "Just a little? Sakura, if he was just a little over-protective, then Hitler would just a tad violent now, would he?" Sakura blushed. "Let's start, shall we?"
Syaoran was about to write down his final answer for a particularly difficult question, even by his standards when Sakura went, "Hoee!" Syaoran looked up, surprised, "What is it now? You wrote the wrong equation?" Sakura shook her head. "You mis-read the question?" She shook her head again. "I… I… I got the answer." Sakura said in disbelieve. Syaoran stared for a moment, waiting for realization to sink in. "That's great! You might not fail next week's paper after all."
Sakura nodded dazedly, she finally, finally got an answer? There might be hope after all! With newfound determination, Sakura put her mind to work. She did question after question, without complaining or whining (much). After a few hours of math, her brain was now dizzy with formulas and equations. She was quite ready to stop for the day.
"That's it. I'm done. I'm not doing it anymore. My brain's about to explode now." Sakura said, and slouched into her chair. Syaoran nodded, looked up at her, then went back to thinking about the math question he was about to solve before his girlfriend interrupted.
"Nee, Syaoran. Stop doing math already! Let's stop for today, all right? Please?" Sakura begged him. She looked up at him with puppy-dog eyes, an expression Syaoran knew all too well.
"Hold on for a minute alright? This question isn't solved yet. Shh…" Syaoran shushed Sakura and went back to solving that particularly annoying question.
Sakura huffed in annoyance. "So that's how it is huh? A math question's more important than me!" She knew she was whiny, but she really did not want to see another math problem anymore. "Fine!" And with that, she snatched Syaoran's precious paper away from him.
Syaoran was deep in concentration when something flashed pass his eyes. The next thing he knew was that the table before him was empty, and that Sakura was now running around her room, away from him. "Hey! My paper! It ain't finished yet Sakura!" He stood up and gave chase, still wanting to finish that sum.
Sakura gave a yelp as Syaoran tried tackling her from behind. She wiggled away from him and ran away. He finally caught her and they fell on her bed together. Syaoran rolled on top of her, "Now, will you give me back my paper?" Sakura saw that glint in his eyes. "No!" With that, Syaoran started tickling her, knowing where she felt most squeamish. "Syaoran! No! Stop it! Go away! Eep!"
Syaoran stopped, "So you'll hand it over now?"
Sakura looked at him as if he was mad, "No way! I'll never give it back!"
Syaoran raised his brow, "Last chance Kinomoto." And started tickling her once she told him the answer was negative. Finally, Sakura gave up, she handed the now battered piece of paper back to him. "Fine. Go spend time with your math problem sum then. I'll just sit here looking hurt." Syaoran laughed. "You're not even sad Sakura. Geez." And he went back to solving his problem sum.
After finishing the sum (and a while of making out), it was time for Syaoran to leave. He knew it was time to go because Toya was banging on the door, trying to chase him away. He finally left to Kinomoto household, not without first annoying the hell out of Toya first though. "Bye Sakura, see you in school tomorrow. I'll call you tonight alright?" He kissed her on the lips, as per custom (that look of rage on Toya's face was priceless), and let himself out.
Behind him, he could hear both siblings quarreling over what he just did. He stood there for a while, only opening the gate when he heard Toya's cry of pain due to Sakura's foot stomping abilities. He smirked, pulled up the collar of his coat and slowly walked home.
