"Now that's my kind of music" I said. I stood up, stretching and dusting off sand. Then I looked at everyone. "RACE YA TO THE WATER!" I yelled, before running. But this time, Syaoran was ready. He was at my heels. I tried boosting up my speed, but he kept on my tail. We reached the water at a tie.

"I was ready for you that time" he laughed. I stuck my tongue out at him. I put my hands over my head, before diving into the water and swimming fast. I don't know what happened to him, but by the time I was up to the surface again, I was at the destination I had wished for. It was a small island that was formed like a cove. Only about 9 yards in length, it had rocks in its bay. One of them was large that jutted out of the water. I swam around it, and climbed up on top.

It was very smooth, and it overlooked the water. The water in this area was extremely clear, and I could see millions of shells glittering the water, and big schools of colorful fish. It was beautiful. I could see the sandy shore, about a mile off. But it surprised me that the water wasn't to deep out here. I must have swum along a bank, and I was probably at the edge of a shelf.

I could see the figures of a few of my friends, and I could tell it was them because Chiharu's bathing suit was fiery red, and Tomoyo's hair always flashed in the sun. So it could have only been them.

But, then there was no one else around them. It was a little frightening.

I felt a tug on my leg, before I was pulled down into the water, where I came back up, seconds later, gasping for air. I turned around, violently, to see no sign of someone in sight.

Alright, I can't believe I'm admitting it, but I'm terrified of ghosts. And right now, I was also terrified. You put two and two together. I felt the same tug around my waist, being pulled back under the water.

I knew I had to face this person, who was still holding onto my waist. I turned, but the person had felt my moving and released me from their grip.

I kept my eyes open this time, knowing that if it had been a ghost I would have felt the chill that your supposed to get when a ghost touches you. Right?

Well, I'll just follow my own beliefs. I felt the tug on my waist, and grabbed my captors' arms. I felt the figure stiffen, before dragging them to the surface. I turned, my grip very strong, and sent a glare as my eyes laid on Syaoran's smirk.

"I'll kill you" I muttered, before beginning to chase him around the cove. He squealed, which I found quite funny, and splashing him every chance I could.

We ended up back on the rock, me on top, he on the bottom. I was straddling him on my knees, my hands placed at each side of his head. We were only a few inches away, but I guess none of us seemed to notice till later.

"Have you finished yet?" Syaoran asked, out of breath. I was panting myself.

"Just about" I said, smiling, and taking slow breaths. Our faces began to inch closer by the second, and I could feel the drops of water from his hair brush my forehead. I felt his breath brush my skin, and noticed we were only mere centimeters apart. Our eyes closed, and we got closer, and closer, until we…

"HEY LOVE BIRDS! CARE TO JOIN US?!" Eriol shouted from the water. My head shot up, and I fell off the rock and onto the sand bar, scrapping my knee on a rock. I winced as the saltwater stung at the cut, but began to head back to shore. I heard the splash Syaoran made as he jumped into the depths of the water, and he pulled up beside me.

"Something wrong?" He asked. I wanted to say yes, not only because the cut on my leg was worse then I thought, but because we had almost kissed back there. I shivered a bit.

"No, no, I'm fine" I said, trying to smile, but wincing as my cut let the stinging salt water into my system. I was starting to get dizzy.

"Are you sure, Sakura?" He asked. I didn't answer as I felt more of my blood drain, and I fell forward into the water and blacked out.

~*~*~

"Sakura?"

"Sakura?!"

"Is she alright?!"

"Yea, but she seems to have cut herself. The cut widened while she was swimming."

"Wait here, I'll get the first-aid kit!"

"Lay her down here."

"Sakura, Sakura, can you hear me?"

I tried to open my eyes, but they stung with salt water. I was lying somewhere, I wasn't exactly sure, and my leg hurt worse then ever.

"Syaoran?" I asked, saying the first name that came into my mind.

"I'm right here Sakura, don't worry" I heard him say, his voice soft.

"My leg" I muttered.

"Don't worry" he said again, and I felt a pressure against the wound. I then felt a soft stinging, wincing slightly, and another amount of pressure, before feeling relief wash over me. I opened my eyes slowly, the water still burning them, and I blinked slowly. Syaoran's image came into focus, hovering above me. I saw him relax.

"You're alright" he said, much relief and thanks in his voice.

"Of course" I said to him, in a small laughing voice. I tried raising my head, but my vision spun and it felt as if someone was pounding a cinder block to my forehead. Syaoran laid me back down, propped slightly against a chair.

"Here" he said, giving me some small white pills that looked like aspirin, and a water bottle. I took them, gratefully accepting his help since my body was shaking.

"What happened?" I asked.

"Well…" he began. "I guess you cut yourself in the cove, and thought the wound wasn't a big deal, so you began to swim back to land without it. I noticed you were staggering a bit, so I asked what was wrong and you said nothing. It seems the salt water was infecting your cut, and opening it wider, increasing your blood loss. You fainted from the loss, and I swam you back to shore, and here we are" he explained. I looked at him.

"Thank you" I said after a while of thinking. "I might have drowned if it wasn't for you."

"Yes, but it was partly my fault that you fell off the rock" Syaoran said. I knew where this was leading.

"No, we would have been perfectly fine, it was Eriol's fault" I said to him. He nodded.

"So" he said. "Back there, when we almost…" he began, but it seemed he had difficulty finding the word.

"Kissed?" I suggested, and he nodded.

"Was that purpose, or accident?" He asked.

"It was going to be on purpose, but sort of by accident. We were caught in the moment" I said, remembering all the times I had thought about the kiss in my black-out period.

"What do you think would have happened if Eriol hadn't interrupted?" Syaoran asked.

"I guess we would still be in the cove, wondering why we had kissed, or we would still be kissing" I said. I blushed as I realized my choice of words, and he sent me a sly smile. I looked at him shyly. Hey, there's a first for everything.

"Want to know what would have happened?" He asked. I didn't answer but merely felt that the aspirin were starting to kick in. With all the times I had taken them, they had always made me sleepy. I fell back into the chair, falling asleep. And I heard Syaoran move next to me.

I let my head fall onto his shoulder, since it was a lot more comfortable then sitting the way I had. Before I fell deeply, I heard him whisper to himself.

"She's really cute when she's sleeping…"

I woke up once again, this time back at the house, in my room. I was still in my swim-suit, and I had no idea how I had gotten there. I heard Tomoyo and the other girls downstairs, and the boys seemed to be there as well. I stood, my headache gone, but still a little shaky.

I changed into a pair of khaki caprice and a blue and white stripped tank-top. I yawned and stretched, reminding me much of my cat Kero, before I began to make my way for the stairs. I smelt popcorn from the living room, and saw that the lights in the room were out.

The only light came from the TV, which at the moment had two little girls walking up to a large house. I walked in, seeing that my assumptions were correct, and sighed at the way seating had been set up. This was a plot against me. They didn't seem surprised as I sat down next to Syaoran and Tomoyo, and began to eat some popcorn out of the bowl that Syaoran was holding.

I noticed the movie as 'Practical Magic', which could sometimes be a bit scary for me. It was just those parts with that one guy, who…I shuddered at the thought, and watched as the guy got hit by a car.

The movie continued on slowly, and finally the first scary part was happening. Sally was going to help her sister, in this really creepy hotel. They were walking down to the car now, and they showed the moon, and the red headed sister that I always forgot the name of ran to her car to get her necklace.

Then the guy grabbed her from behind, and I jumped as Sally went towards the car, and got captured herself. My eyes were frozen open for the rest of the scene, till the part they buried him. The movie just got really spooky from here.

I jumped a bit more when they showed the dead guy's feet sticking out of the ground, and when the people saw him standing by the roses that had grown. I felt someone squeeze my hand, and looked from our joined hands, up their arm, to their face. It was Syaoran. His head was turned to the movie, though, so I turned mine to watch as well.

The next thing I knew, the red headed sister was being strangled to death by the guys-guys-guys ghost. I shivered. And then he went towards the cop person, who burned him with the star. But it didn't end there, he had just lost his physical appearance, and then ended up possessing the red head.

So, Sally and her children and her aunts got together, and said they need more people. So, they used this phone tree thing and called up a lot of women from the town, who agreed to help. And they went around setting up the house, and Sally did the cool thing from the beginning when she blew on a candle and it lit.

Then they had gotten together for the exorcism, which scared me really bad, because the girl was screaming in pain. Then, Sally cut her palm and her sisters, and they did the thing where you put it together, and she was better. So, all and all, the six witches jumped off the house on Halloween, floating down with umbrellas, and Sally and the cop lived happily ever after.  

Someone turned the lights back on, and I released my grip from Syaoran's.

"Have a nice rest, sleeping beauty?" He asked, and I felt my cheeks tinge with a bit of color. I nodded.

"Alright then, what to do now?" Naoko asked. I smiled.

"Twister" I said, and before any of them could object, I went off to get the gameboard.

Crystal: Alright, many of you people have been asking about the songs from the last chapter, and I'll put them here with the songs from this chapter. I'm really sorry it took so long, and I'm sorry this chapter isn't as long as others, but I hope you liked the fluff and the whole thing overall.
