Chaptre 3: Horror Movies and the Rendezvous at 9:38 pm.

“Onii-chan? Are you awake?” Syaoran asked the silver haired male on the couch in the living room.

“He'll be fine, and who are you calling `onii-chan', kaiju? Your big brother's right here.” commented Kinomoto Touya from the entrance of the living room, smirking at Syaoran.

“You switched back….” Sakura said slowly. “How'd you manage to do it?”

“Well, duh, by telling the `secret' we've been hiding for a while now.” answered Touya faintly, and I mean VERY faintly blushing and singing hand signs in the air as he said `secret'.

“..and what secret would that be?” questioned Syaoran looking at him with a smile.

This is when Touya turned red. “Why should you care? I'm going to my room.” He turned around, put his hands on his waist and marched rather stiffly towards his room. When he was half-way up the stairs, he yelled, “Oh, and dad's out on an archeology dig. Check the white board in the kitchen.”

Syaoran tilted his head in confusion. Sakura gave a little chuckle.

Sakura's innocence never fails to amuse me…

Both then felt something stir on the couch. “Oh my head……” breathed Yukito putting a hand on his forehead. Wings immediately sprouted from his back and he transformed into the ever magnificent Yue.

“Good evening mistress. I take it we've been returned to normal, yes?” he inquired, crossing his arms and closing his beautiful silvery eyes.

“Yes. But….what did you tell each other? What was the `secret'?” Syaoran asked in curiosity.

Yue opened his eyes abruptly and looked away, cheeks looking flushed.

Syaoran's eyes flooded with concern. He asked the usual question. “Yue, you look a little red, are you sick?”

Sakura just gave a little smirk.

“No mistress, I'm fine. I think I'll join go back to being Yukito now.” Yue's wings wrapped around him and Yukito stepped out of the cocoon. He looked around the room a bit before focusing his attention to Sakura and Syaoran.

“I'll be going now. My grandparents might get worried.” he said. Syaoran walked him towards the front door and opened it for him.

“See you!” he cried at Yukito, who was walking away, while waving bye-bye. When he was out of sight, Syaoran turned to face Sakura.

“So.”

“Yah?”

“What do you wanna do?”

“Wanna watch a movie?”

“Sure.”

“What kind?”

“You pick.”

“How `bout a horror movie?”

Syaoran tensed really badly. “H-h-h-horror? W-w-with you know, g-g-ghosts?” His amber eyes were fearful. Sakura winced at seeing the look of his eyes.

I never knew my eyes could look this helpless…..

Sakura grinned. She knew Sakura was afraid of ghost and scary stuff and Sakura wanted to tease her. “Yup. We'll watch a horror movie….” she turned around gracefully. “….unless you're chicken.” She mimicked a chicken and started to cluck.

Syaoran gave a pout. “I am not chicken! We'll watch.” He marched down the living room, sat on the couch and crossed his arms and legs.

Sakura laughed. So THAT'S what I look like when I pout. This is gonna be good…

15 minutes after……

“Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh!!!!” Syaoran yelled, tugging on to Sakura's shoulder and burying his face into the pillows.

“Cool it Sakura.” Sakura said putting her hand on Syaoran's head.

I should never have provoked her. Damn, I hope she doesn't cry….

“But…but...” Syaoran lifted his head; tears were streaming down his face.

Damn, she's crying. Sure it's MY face, but it's still her inside. Same difference.

“I'm sorry. We shouldn't have watched this. It's my fault.” Sakura said in attempt to comfort him.

“No, it's okay…..It's partially my faul…*yawn*……I'm getting sleepyyyyy…” he leaned his head on Sakura's shoulder and Sakura turned a velvet red.

“Um…Sakura..” she looked to his side and saw that Syaoran had already fallen asleep.

Sakura smiled.

Come to think of it….I'm getting pretty sleepy too….

She rested her head on Syaoran's soft hair and fell into a deep slumber.

Somewhere out there, beneath the pale moon light, Penguin Park most probably.

“Where is he?” Eriol asked as he sat on one of the benches. A stray cherry blossom petal fell beside him.

“Sakura, how nice of you to drop by, literally. I'm waiting for someone.” He said to the petal as though it was a real person. Eriol took the petal between his fingers.

Then he started to sing.

Konna kimochi wa umarete kite hajimete,

toumeina rinku tsunagatte sou, me to me ga atta Baby, it's you.

Sora no iro made umarekawari hajimeru.

Then another voice joined in, a high-pitched one. In surprise, Eriol stopped for a while.

Hey…that's….

Haato no rampu hikattahiramekitato ai hiraiteku.

Toritsukurou yori mo isso home ga iitte.

Wadakamari wa angou, itsuka tokeru.

Both then sang along.

Konna kimochi wa umarete kite hajimete, ote wo hippatte, mukiatte.

Mou kowagaranaide, Call a name.

Konna watashi mo umare kawareru hazu yo konnja tatte naitatte kanjite kita subete ni reason….

“Hehehe, even with my voice, your singing is extraordinary.” Tomoyo told her. Eriol turned a little pink.

“You're not so bad yourself.” he said as Tomoyo walked towards him.

“That was only because I'm using your voice.” Tomoyo said. She knelt down, took Eriol's hand and kissed it. Eriol turned a bright tomato-ish colour.

Eriol then started to laugh.

“What's so funny?” asked Tomoyo, standing up.

“I thought it was the guy that was supposed to do that…” he said between giggles.

“Well at least I wasn't the one talking to a flower petal.” Tomoyo said, partially exasperated and partially amused. Eriol immediately stopped laughing and glared at her.

Both suddenly burst into laughter. When they recovered from laughing, they sat down on the bench -careful not to sit on `Sakura'-.

“I really thought Sakura had arrived. I got a little freaked out and almost panicked.” Tomoyo confessed.

“The reincarnation of possibly the greatest sorcerer in the whole universe got freaked out and almost panicked because of my best friend? I thought only Syaoran did that.” Eriol teased.

“Shut it.” Tomoyo said looking to her side.

They were silent for a while. Eriol looked at his watch. 9:38 pm…

“So…why'd you want to meet me?” Eriol asked tentatively.

“You don't want to?”

“I do.”

“Then why rush into questions? Let's just watch the moon for a while.” Tomoyo said, looking into the moon. Eriol followed.

Sigh……if you can't beat `em, join `em…

Tomoyo then broke the silence.

“Er….Tomoyo, there's something I've been meaning to tell you.”

Eriol didn't answer and instead went limp and fell onto Tomoyo's lap.

She…..fell asleep?! Darn…and I was so close too…

Tomoyo called home and after three minutes, a long limousine came and eight female bodyguards exited. One carried the sleeping Eriol, a little puzzled, and one asked where their destination is.

“To my hou- I mean, to Hiragizawa Eriol's manor please.” Tomoyo said with a smile.

Once they were there, Eriol was placed on the couch, still asleep.

“I'll be staying here for the night.” Tomoyo said. Of course, since this IS my house…

The limousine left and Tomoyo sat on one of the chairs.

Tomoyo sure is a heavy sleeper.

She watched as he stirred a little. Eriol's glasses were going to fall off so Tomoyo made an effort to take them and place them on the side table before it did. As she leaned in closer, Eriol said something that made her heart leap.

“Eriol…I love..you…” he said before burying his head into the couch pillow. Tomoyo stared for a while. Soon after, she gave a grin.

“I love you too Tomoyo, too bad you're asleep to hear it.” Tomoyo said. She stood up but began to feel very nauseous.

Maybe I'll just sit here….Man, I feel sick….

Before Tomoyo finally fell unconscious, she heard someone speak. And they said…

… “I'm not asleep.”

Back at the Kinomoto Residence,

“WaaaaaH! Gaki!! Keep away from my sister!” cried Touya upon discovering Syaoran and Sakura asleep on the couch.

Both woke up and fell out of the couch.

“TOUYA!!! What was that for?!” screamed Syaoran, evidently exasperated.

Touya put his hands on his waist. “THAT was for falling asleep on that gaki.”

“*cough* sistercomplex…*cough*”

“What was that, Yuki?!” Touya asked clenching his fists.

“Oh nothing at all….” Yukito smiled his usual innocent I'm-not-implying-anything smile.

“I'd better go now, Meiling's gonna freak if she finds out I stayed here.” Sakura said and headed towards the door.

“Um…Syaoran...” Syaoran said timidly.

“Hai?”

“You do realize we're still in each other's body.” Syaoran pointed out.

Sakura reddened. “Oh, right. I forgot…”

“So…I'll just go to your house and you'll just have to stay here.”

“Uhmm….r-right.” said Sakura, growing redder by the second.

A few hours after…….

“Xiaolang, I am extremely disappointed! You come to Japan and when I visit, you've forgotten everything I've thought you already?!” Yelan screamed at Syaoran.

Gosh. I didn't know Syaoran's mother could be this strict…

When Syaoran had stepped into the house, there were traps everywhere and Syaoran hadn't expected that so inevitably, he almost died. If it wasn't for Yelan, he would be hanging from the ceiling wrapped in barbed wire.

Yelan thought he was just tired so she made him answer a written test, which of course, Syaoran failed. Then Yelan conjured up this humonculi for Syaoran to defeat, but Syaoran ended up running away from it, thinking it was a ghost, shouting “Hooooeeeeee!!!”

Obviously, Yelan would be furious.

“I'm sorry Mrs. L- I mean, mother.” Syaoran said. He then gave her an apologetic look.

Yelan studied him. “Oh Sakura?”

“Hai?” Syaoran said with a smile. After a few seconds, he put his hands on his mouth.

Dammit!! What have I done!!! Syaoran's gonna kill me!!

“As I thought.” Yelan said triumphantly. “Syaoran's room is the one with the green door and…….”

Yelan whispered something in Syaoran's ear which made Syaoran go red.

“Understand?” Yelan asked.

“H-Hai…. I know which drawers to open now when getting clothes.” Syaoran Said growing EXTREMELY red.

Yelan then left and Syaoran rushed for the telephone.

“Moshi Moshi, Sya- Sakura speaking.”

“Your mother was here.”

“Nani?!?!? Mom was there?!?!? What happened?” Sakura's heart was beating really fast.

“She figured us out….I don't know how… she just did, then she left.”

“Typical of mom…Well, at least now all you have to worry about is Meiling.”

“…and dressing up….and using the bathroom….” Syaoran pointed out.

Sakura turned beet red. “Yeah, well…..w-we'll get through that. I wonder how Eriol and Tomoyo are….”

“I hope they're alright.”

“Yeah….”

“Well, I should go now, I suppose..”

“Um… Sakura..?”

“Hmm?”

“Nevermind. Bye.”

“Bye.”

Both put the phone down.

I wonder what he was going to tell me….?

On the other end, Kinomoto house,

Sakura slaps himself.

Why can't I tell her…?!

Back at Syaoran's house,

“Syaaaaaaoraaaaan!!” screamed Meiling, glomping him from behind. “Where have you been?! It's your turn to cook tonight, and I'm hungry!!!”

“Meiling, your screams are making my ears bleed…” Syaoran told her.

“Make me dinner!!!”

Groan….this is going to be a long night…..

On the balcony of Hiragizawa Manor,

The moonlight shone brilliantly on Kero's fur just as it did on Suppi's.

“You know, I think I'm ready to tell you, you know, so we can return to our own bodies...” Kero said tentatively.

“I was..thinking the same thing. You go first.” replied Suppi.

“Well you know when we always fight and how I'm always shoving sweets down your throat…”

“….and how you're always trying to beat my high score?”

“Yeah well…the reason behind that is…”

“…that you hate me?” suggested Suppi fearfully.

“No! It's not that!! I do that because I want…. I want us to become….good friends….Can you be my friend?” Kero said as a blush creeped into his face.

Suppi's eyes gleamed. “I want to be good friends as well.” He gave a smile; a smile that could only be seen when Suppi was drunk.

Kero punched his paws up in the air. “Yesss!! Wanna go play video games?”

“Sure!!” Suppi said.

Both guardians flew up in the air but before they could reach the inside of the room, they dropped on the floor, weak and limp.

“You know, on second thought, why don't we just lay here and take a nap..” Kero said nauseously.

“I agree…” Suppi answered.

Soon both of them fell asleep.
