Chapter 3.

"I'm home!"

Touya took his shoes off and entered the house. He heard noises coming from the living room and went to see who it was. Only to be stopped dead in his tracks.

There they were, the brat and the brat girl, AKA Meiling, sitting and laughing with his little kaijuu.

What ticked him off more was the fact that Syaoran and Sakura were sitting on the carpet, their back resting against the sofa, together. Meiling was seated on a sofa nearby.

"Oh hi Oniichan." Said Sakura cheerfully. "How was studying with Yukito?"

Touya, at the moment, had engaged in a glaring contest with Syaoran. If one looked closely, they could see the jolts of electricity that was being passed between them.

"It was fine. Yuki was having trouble with some math problems so I helped him out." He answered his sister, not taking his eyes off Sayaoran.

Sakura, the ever sweet and utterly clueless creature that she was, went back to her discussion with Meiling about the season's newest fashion trends.

Syaoran broke the connection between himself and Touya, by closing his eyes, and sighing heavily.

`Oh great, the neurotic oniichan is home. Now I'll never get a chance to kiss her.' He thought dismally.

Ever since Sakura had jumped into his arms and declared her love, he had wanted nothing more than to steal a taste of his cherry blossom's lips. All they had shared in the following time periods were innocent kisses on the cheeks. Syaoran had wanted to take this a step further. Unfortunately his luck wasn't with him this whole past week. Every time he had gathered enough courage to carry out his plans, there had always been some sort of distraction. And most of those distractions had come in the form of one Tomoyo Daidouji and her accursed camera. As bent on as he was on kissing Sakura, Tomoyo was just as bent on capturing it on film. There was a girl with a serious obsession, if he ever met one. Since it was going to be a first kiss for both him and Sakura, Syaoran had wanted it to be perfect, something that only he and Sakura would share.

Today, he had deliberately ditched Tomoyo and just brought Meiling with him to Sakura's house. He had it all planned out too. After saying their goodbyes, Meiling would casually walk on ahead, leaving Sakura and Syaoran alone. Then he would carry on with his plan and finally kiss his cherry blossom. Boy, did that plan went down the drain.

He had thought it might be too good to be true. And now look, the one person in the world, who wouldn't accept a glass of water from Syaoran's hands if he was dying of thirst, was in the room with him. It was a double shame that this person also happened to be his beloved's older brother. Well, who ever said life was fair. Lady Luck just did not want to smile upon him tonight. He shook a mental fist at the Lady Luck.

In his musing, he nearly missed the fact that Touya was now shoving his large self between him and Sakura. He moved out of the way just in time to dodge the elbow that was heading towards his face. He got up off the floor quickly, and went to sit by Meiling on the sofa. He found a slight pleasure in the fact that Sakura was now frowning up at Touya.

`Time to put my break-up-kaijuu-and-brat-plan in action.' Touya thought to himself.

"So brat, when are you heading back to China? I know you didn't come here to stay since you moved back a couple of months ago. So when is your flight back?"

`Oh yeah, score one for me.' Touya performed a mental cheer. There were chibi Touyas dancing around in his head, holding up signs that read "Get out Brat", and "Shove off", and "Leave Sakura alone". He had a very creative, yet somewhat disturbing mind.

`Now Sakura will know he's not here to stay, and she will surely get angry with him. Then I will perform my brotherly duty and happily throw the brat out'. Chibi Touyas had picked up their dancing speed. His little victory, however, was short-lived.

"Meiling and I have decided to stay here for good." Piped up Syaoran. "I have already spoken to my mother and got her permission to start attending Tomeda High." Syaoran answered smugly.

"She believes that it would be good for the clan if I received a foreign education. Plus, she wanted me to stay close to the card mistress and protect her from harm." He explained further, putting a little more emphasis on the word `close'.

Touya's little victory dance had turned into a wild, blood-thirsty rage. Chibi Touyas had sprouted little horns and bleak expressions. They were now holding up signs that read "Kill the Brat", and "Spill his blood". His brain was spewing out curses a mile a minute.

`God damn, mother fucking son of a bitch, he thinks he's so fuckin' smart. Stupid asshole, who the fuck does he think he is. I'm so gonna rip the fuckin' smirk off his face with my boot…..' and it went on and on.

Syaoran nudged Meiling with his elbow and they both stood up. Syaoran chose to ignore the murderous expression that had appeared on Touya's face.

"Well Sakura, thanks for having us over." Meiling said preparing to leave. She too had noticed how quiet Touya had became after hearing that they will be staying for good.

"Ohh, you guys are leaving already. But we were having so much fun." Sakura said, disappointment showing in her voice.

`Yeah, `were' being the key word here.' Syaoran thought, throwing a weary glance at Touya. Now if he could only find a way to kiss Sakura and not have to run for his life afterwards.

They all headed towards the door with Touya happily leading the way, and Meiling bringing up the rear. Touya held the door wide open and said.

"There. Now don't let the door knob hit your ass on the way out."

"Oniichan!!" Sakura cried horrifically at her brother's words, and proceeded to kick him on the shin.

"Umm, Touya San." Meiling said politely. "I think your father just called you from the library."

Touya, who was rubbing his leg after being kicked rather hard, answered.

"Ok. I'll go see what he wants."

On his way in, he gave Syaoran a warning look that clearly said "Touch her and die!!"

"O.K. Syaoran" whispered Meiling. "You have about 30 seconds before Touya finds out that his father isn't even home yet. Make good use of this time." She waved a quick good bye to Sakura and hurried off down the steps and disappeared into the street.

"Hoeee!" said Sakura, looking at the door their basement which led to the library. "When did Dad come home, I didn't even notice."

Syaoran couldn't help but smile at the cute innocent expression that had formed on Sakura's face.

Remembering that he had little time to carry out his plan, he threw caution to the wind. He grabbed Sakura's face in his hands and looked down at her. She looked up with a clueless expression, and softly said "hoe!". He brought his face down, and met her soft lips with his own. The first contact was nothing more than a simple touch, a caress. He brought his face back up and searched her eyes for any sing of rejection of repulsion. What he found was a dazed and happy expression in her jaded pools. When she gave him a dazzling smile, he couldn't hold back any longer. He groaned softly, and dived back down, this time meeting her lips hungrily. He clutched the back of her head with one of his hands, and his other hand dropped lower to wrap around her tiny waist. He nibbled on her lips and then brought her lower lip into her mouth and suckled on it. Sakura made a soft whimpering noise and brought her arms to wrap around Syaoran's neck. Syaoran tilted his head, and brought them closer, if that was even possible. He traced his tongue on her lips, tasting her flavor. He didn't go into her mouth, but contented himself with only her taste. To him, she tasted sweeter than any nectar that could come from the heavens themselves. He felt himself drowning deeper and deeper into everything that was Sakura. He felt as if he had finally found a place where he belonged.

The need to draw in breath finally allowed him to let go of her. He and Sakura both took in deep gulps of breath. Both of his arms had now wrapped themselves around her middle and were holding her in a tight embrace. He let go and looked at her face again and was astonished by what the found. Her cheeks were flushed and her eyes were shining brightly, full of love and admiration. Her lips looked thoroughly kissed, and incredibly tempting. If there wasn't a looming threat of Touya still hanging by, Syaoran didn't think he'd be able to constrain himself.

He traced a finger down on her cheeks and ran his thumb along her lower lip and whispered "I love you so much Sakura Kinomoto."

She smiled up at him, and answered shyly in a breathy tone. "I love you too, Syaoran Li."

He gave her a tiny kiss on her small nose, emanating a small giggle from Sakura. He let go of her, and stepped down the stairs. At the bottom of the stairs, he looked back up and gave her a dazzling smile reserved only for her. He waved to her a final time and disappeared into the night. Sakura couldn't help but wave back. And that was the condition in which she was found by her brother, a few moments later. Staring out at the empty street, waving, with a distant smile on her face.

At that moment, across the town.

"So, now you understand everything, right?"

"Don't worry Yukito san, I understand perfectly what I have to do. You just leave everything to me." Said Tomoyo, and hung up her phone. Only to pick it back up a few minutes later to dial another number.

"Do you think it was wise of you to do that?" said Yue, picking up their mental conversation with Yukito.

"It had to be done. In order to distract him, we have to threaten him with the thing he fears the most. But don't worry, it's all going to work out fine." Said Yukito, stepping away from the phone, and going back into his room to plan further ahead.
