Living it Up...
MORNING AFTER
Syaoran rolled onto his side and started to raise a hand to his face, it brushed past hair... Someone else's hair... SAKURA! The young brunette was lying there, sleeping peacefully and somehow his arms had found their way around her...
"I didn't sleep with Sakura, there is a reasonable explanation for this..." Syaoran chanted in his head.
Sakura groaned as she awoke, she could feel arms around her. But the fear didn't come, she felt safe and warm in these arms, but who? She looked up and emerald met amber in a sea of emotion.
"Sakura... I... I mean... I didn't..." Syaoran stumbled over his sentences, his face steadily becoming a dark crimson, "You see..."
Sakura laughed, "Syaoran-kun it's ok! I was scared last night so I came in here to sleep, I didn't want to be alone..."
Syaoran let out a relieved sigh, "Oh I see... I thought maybe I had kidnapped you from your bed and now you were going to kill me..." He laughed, "But I guess not. We'd better get up before Meiling comes in and gets the wrong idea..."
"Yes we should..." Sakura said, staring into his eyes, she didn't know what it was but there was just something about this guy...
Neither of them moved.
Syaoran grinned nervously; the close proximity to Sakura was affecting him in many ways that he thought might not be appreciated. He leaned his lower half away from her.
Sakura didn't know why she did it but she leaned forward and brought her lips towards his, one millimeter separated them from a kiss when...
"Uncle Syaoran! Sakura-chan! Breakfast is ready!" Mai called from the kitchen.
Sakura and Syaoran jerked apart blushing like mad. Syaoran called angrily over his shoulder, "COMING!"
Sakura smiled at him before climbing out of his arms and running to her room to change.
"So how was your night?" Meiling asked when they were finally seated around the table.
Syaoran choked on his rice and Sakura turned a lovely shade of maroon. Syaoran when he had caught his breath smiled at Meiling, "It was good, I slept very well."
His comment cause Sakura to turn even redder, and she glanced up from her food and smiled at him. That smile made Syaoran's hand clenched under the table; he would kill the man who had stolen that smile for so long, slowly and painfully...
Sakura smiled at Syaoran, "We have a play in school next week I got lead but no one will tell me who I play opposite..."
"You play opposite me Sakura..." Syaoran tried to smile, "I know I don't seem the type but I really enjoy acting..."
"Do you know the name of the play we're doing?" Sakura asked quickly.
"I think its called red moon rising..." Syaoran's brow furrowed with concentration, "It's a tragedy I think..."
"Oh I see..." Sakura smiled at Syaoran, "Well it will be fun to do a play won't it?"
Meiling burst into laughter.
"Meiling what is it? What is so funny?" Sakura asked Meiling who was now hunched over, as she was laughing so hard.
"It's... It's just..." Meiling laughed harder, "I've done red m-moon rising be-before and it's... it's a ROMANTIC tragedy..."
Syaoran and Sakura's eyes locked for a second and blushing they both turned away, rehearsals would start that afternoon...
Outside in the shadows of the apartment's halls a figure's eyes narrowed listening to the voices from inside. No one touched Sakura but HIM... With a hiss the figure turned and darted down the stairs...
OOC: Sorry for the short chapter and the long wait but I was at camp and when I got back my Uncle was in the ICU, he might die... I'm really sorry if my updates aren't as long or as frequent.
