Card Captor Sakura Fan Fiction ❯ Zapped ❯ Just A Game ( Chapter 1 )

Zapped!

"Hey, Sakura, come over here for a second!" Chiharu shouted with a smile, waving at Sakura as she passed her seat in the class.

Sakura looked to her right and smiled back at her friends. Chiharu, Naoko, Rika and Tomoyo sat around Chiharu's desk, all with a smirk, grin or full-blown smile. "What is it, Chiharu-chan?" Sakura asked, pulling her chair next to her friend's desk.

"Give me your hand." She demanded, her smile still present but an evil glint in her eyes was now visible, holding her hand out to Sakura.

The sorceress was a little hesitant at first, but her trust in her friends overpowered her nervousness and she placed her hand in Chiharu's.

Chiharu's smile turned into a devilish grin and she pulled out a pen and, before Sakura knew what was happening, the word "ZAP" was written on her right hand. "There, now you're zapped!" Chiharu exclaimed happily, releasing her friend's hand.

"Z-zapped?" Sakura stuttered, studying the letters on her hand.

Tomoyo smiled, "Yeah, zapped. Whenever someone says your name, you have to say, "Aishiteru". And you absolutely- ABSOLUTELY- have to." She explained.

The card mistress blushed a deep shade of red. "I- I HAVE to? Hoeeee…."

She whined, burying her reddened face in her hands. "This can't be happening to me…" she mumbled, unheard by her friends.

"Hey, aren't you going over to Li-kun's tonight?" Tomoyo grinned slyly, knowing exactly what the answer would be.

Sakura gasped. `Oh god no! He's no doubt going to say my name at least once, and when he does…I'll have to…oh dear…' she thought, her blush deepening if it possibly could. "Yes…" she answered her friend's previous question.

The four other girls smirked in satisfaction at each other. Everyone in the school knew that Sakura Kinomoto and Syaoran Li were in love with each other but both were too blind to see it, or to admit it. So, being Sakura's best friends, these four girls made it their goal to set them up together, if it was the last thing they ever did.

Suddenly, something caught Tomoyo's eye, and her smile widened from ear-to-ear when she saw the Li clan warrior walk into the classroom.

"Li-kun, over here!" The video-taper shouted out to the brown-haired boy.

Sakura's eyes shot open at this. `Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no! Don't come over here, please!' she thought, averting her eyes from his heavy gaze.

"G'morning, Saku-"

"Um…Ihavetogonowbye!" she said quickly, running to her seat at the far back.

Syaoran raised an eyebrow at her reaction to his greeting. `I wonder what's wrong with her…today…' he thought while shaking his head and bringing his attention back to Tomoyo and the others. "Do you guys know what's up with Sakura?" he asked, more than mildly confused.

Tomoyo grinned and shrugged. "Must be those hormones."

"I guess I should cancel it…" Sakura mumbled to herself as she opened her locker, putting her books in it and taking her bag out.

"Cancel what?" a voice (oh like you people don't know who it is..) asked from behind the locker door.

"Hoe?" Sakura exclaimed, slamming her locker quickly. She turned to see Syaoran grinning, his arms crossed over his chest, leaning against the locker next to hers.

Embarrassed, Sakura looked down at her feet, trying to hide the blush that flew across her cheeks. "I…I can't make it tonight, Li-kun…I'm sorry…"

Syaoran frowned as his brows creased. "Why not?" he asked, pushing away from the locker and faced her.

"I-I…. I just can't…" she tried to explain, trying her hardest to not make it sound like a lie. A sigh coming from his lips made her look up at him, her confused expression sending a silent question.

"If you didn't want my help in the first place, why did you accept my offer?" he asked coldly, glaring at her.

She took a surprised step back. `I haven't seen him like that in…almost 10 years…' she thought sadly. "I said I was sorry…"

"Whatever." He said before walking past her.

"S-…Syaoran…"She mummered to herself, hot tears forming in her eyes.

Off to the side of this scene, four girls frowned as Syaoran walked away from Sakura.

"This isn't exactly what we planned for…"Chiharu mumbled, shaking her head.

Tomoyo nodded in agreement. "I never thought Sakura would turn down an offer to be alone with Syaoran just because she was zapped."

Rita, too, nodded. "Maybe we should tell Syaoran about it."

"That's a great idea! We could probably still get some great shots of them too, right Tomoyo?" Naoko exclaimed with enthusiasm, turning to Tomoyo.

The teen smiled. "Yeah, come on, let's catch him before he gets home."

Slamming the door behind him, Syaoran angrily threw his bag against the wall, causing a small dent to appear.

"Stupid Kinomoto…I thought we could maybe have a nice evening together but noOo, she had to ruin my whole day, didn't she?" he asked himself, collapsing onto his leather couch. A moment later, his doorbell rang and, with great effort, he pulled himself away from the couch and lazily walked to his intercom.

"Yeah?" he asked into the speaker, his voice monotone.

"Hey, Li-kun, it's Tomoyo, can I come up?" the speaker responded.

He sighed. `Great, more annoyances.' He thought as he pressed the small, red button. "Sure, come on up."

In less then a minute, Tomoyo, Chiharu, Rika and Naoko were all seated on his two couches and he in the lazy boy chair.

"So, what did you want?" he asked, exasperated, running a hand through his bangs.

"It's about Sakura…" Tomoyo started, getting his attention right away.

"What happened to her? Is she okay? Is she hurt?" he asked, sitting up straight in his chair.

"Yeah, you hurt her, you good for nothing, little-" Chiharu was cut off by Naoko's hand covering her mouth, keeping her from saying anything else.

Syaoran cocked an eyebrow at them. "What do you mean `I hurt her'?"

Tomoyo shook her head. "She nearly cried all the way home, Li-kun. Well, actually, it's our faults too…" he nodded, telling her to continue. "We, sorta, well, zapped her."

Syaoran was a little taken back to say the least. "You what?" he asked.

"We zapped her. You right `ZAP' on someone's hand and when someone else says their name, they have to say `I love you'. Get it?" Chiharu asked, crossing her arms defiantly.

"What does that have to do with what happened earlier?" he asked them.

"She canceled the studying thing because she didn't want to have to tell you that, you baka." Chiharu continued.

"Why? Isn't it just a joke?" he asked.

"Not to her when it comes to you. Li-kun, no matter how much you try to disbelieve it, Sakura-chan does love you, she's just like you though, too afraid to admit it." Tomoyo said as convincingly as possible.

He blushed slightly. "S-so she did want to come over?"

Rika smiled. "Are you kidding? She hasn't stopped bragging about it all week long."

He smiled, hope growing inside of him. "Your-your sure, right?"

Tomoyo laughed. "Yes, Li-kun, we're sure. Are you going to apologize to her now?"

He smirked. "Once you four leave, yes."

The girls smiled in satisfaction once again. "Come on ladies, our work here is done." Chiharu exclaimed proudly, walking out the door, followed by the other three girls laughing at her.

Syaoran walked into his kitchen and picked up the cell phone he, Sakura and Tomoyo all had since the card capturing days. "Here goes nothing." He said before dialing her number.

*Ring*

*Ring*

*Click*

*Hello?* the sweet voice that belonged to the card mistress answered.

Syaoran cleared his throat before answering back. "Um…he-hey, it's me."

*Oh…is something wrong?* she asked, to his disappointment, not very thrilled.

"Uh…yeah there is! C-could you come over and help me with it?" he asked. `Syaoran, you're a genius!' he thought, smiling inwardly.

*D-do you really- REALLY- need my help?*

"Yeah, I do. Come quickly, please." He asked, sounding the most urgent he could.

*I'll…be right over…* she sounded a little afraid, mostly confused, herself.

Mentally, he cheered himself on. "Thanks, bye." He waited until she hung up then hung up too. "Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!" he chanted, dancing around his living room.

In, more or less, three minutes, Sakura appeared on his balcony, her wings present.

`That was quick.' He thought as he walked to the balcony doors, opening them for her.

"So, what's the problem?" she asked, looking around his apartment.

"Nothing." He merely said, walking up to her so he was only about a foot away.

"Then what did you call me here for?" she asked angrily.

"This." He took a step forward, closing the distance by half. "Sakura." He whispered before capturing her lips with his own in a passionate kiss.

Her eyes shot open to be as big as saucers. `H-he's kissing me! Me! Wait…oh no! He said my name!….I might as well enjoy the kiss, my first kiss, before I have to ruin our friendship…' she thought, her arms wrapping around his neck as she kissed him back with just as much ferocity.

`Oh god, she's kissing me back. That's a good thing, right? Of course!' he thought, his own arms snaking around her waist to pull her closer.

The kiss lasted a minute before they pulled away, panting for air.

Smiling, the warrior kept her close to him and took her hand in his, bringing it up to his face so he could see the clearly written letters. "Tomoyo and your other friends explained everything to me. I'm sorry I snapped at you." He said, placing a soft kiss on the back of her hand.

She stared at him for a moment before asking, "And…you're not mad?"

He smirked. "Let's just say…" he showed her his own hand and she gasped.

She blinked. `He…has it written on his hand too…'she thought.

"Sakura…"He finished his phrase from before.

It took her a couple of minutes to catch on but when she did, she smiled and blushed both at the same time. "I love you…Syaoran…" she said, gazing into his hazel colored eyes.

He smiled back at her. "I love you too…" He trailed off, leaning in to capture her lips once again.

She greedily kissed him back, pushing up as close as possible to him. `This is so…amazing! I can't believe he loves me too! And he's kissing me again!' she thought, smiling into the kiss.

Syaoran took his arms away from her waist and bent down slightly to pick her up. She yelped in surprise, but didn't break the heated kiss.

He carried her to his dining room and when he reached it, he placed her back on her feet, pulling back from the kiss.

"What are we doing in here, Syaoran-kun?" she asked, in between gasps for breath, looking around.

He smiled. "I love you." He said. She turned towards him, surprised at the comment, then giggled when she realized that she had said his name.

"Well, I thought that since you're here, we could continue that little study date of ours…?" he said as he sat at the table where books were set up.

She groaned and he laughed before pulling her down into his lap and opening up one of the many math books in front of them.

"So, what did you need some help with?" he asked, placing his chin on her shoulder.

"Mou, Syaoran, I don't want to study!" she childishly swatted the book from his hands. "I just found out you love me, now I want to know more." She turned her head so she could look into his eyes.

He smiled at her. "Like what?"

She thought for a moment then smiled back at him. "Like, how long have you loved me?"

"Forever." He whispered huskily, lightly kissing her bottom lip and pulling away when she went to kiss him.

"Meany…" She pouted, earning a chuckle from him. Then, he did something that totally shocked her. He lifted her straight off her feet and into his arms, one under her legs the other around her back, and brought her to his bed.

And that was the biggest day of her live.

(No they don't have sex.)

******

I'm way too lazy to write an actually GOOD ending. Then again I'm still not sure if I'm gonna continue or not. I got the idea from my idiot friends of mine (YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE….T….). Anyways, I won't preach and bed but it would be nice if you reviewed, `cause if you don't…..your animal just may disappear.

Oh! And if you do review, put your email so I can tell when/if there's gonna be another chappie.

BANANANINANANA!!!!!! AH HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
