Together Again; Syaoran's Return This is the fourth chapter to an S + S fanfic. If you haven't read the first three parts I suggest you do, it may not make to much sense if you don't. Last time: Sakura spent the day at school pondering a lot of things. One of which, being the girl from her dream. Sakura also got lead in choir, and is now happier than ever. ****** “I’m very proud of you, Sakura.? Fujitaka said, clearing the dishes from the table. “I knew you would get it!? “It was pure luck.? Touya walked by snickering. “You know that? You have real god luck monster.? Sakura smashed her foot on top of his, and continued, as of though, she hadn’t been interrupted. “I didn’t think I would get the part at the time. But, Tomoyo said I sounded great!? “Well, I never douted you for a second.?Her father explained. “Oh no, I just remembered, I have some work to do, I will be gone for a few hours. Take care of the house while I’m gone.? Sakura nodded. “We will!? Fujitaka picked up his bag, than walked out the door. “What do you mean by ‘we?? Touya asked, slowly creeping to the door. “I mean you and me. We will take care of the house.?Sakura said smiling. “There is no way one of us could do all the chores alone.? Touya continued to walk to the front door. “Well, you see, I have work to do. So, it looks like the house is all yours! Have fun!?He added as he slammed the door shut. Sakura stood for a few moments, trying to figure out what had just happened. “Hey!? She exclaimed as she finally realized she had been left to do all the work alone. “Oh well, might as well start.? ****** “Almost finished...? Sakura whispered to herself, as she dusted the top of the window sills. “And there we go! All done!?She exclaimed excitedly. “That didn’t take to long.? Sakura climbed down from the chair she had been standing on, and made her way to the kitchen with her cleaning supplies in hand. She set them down on the counter and wiped her forehead as she took a look around at what all her hard would had accomplished. The house was spotless. Not a dust bunny in sight. Not a smudge to be seen. Not even a speck of dirt on the floor. The job was one well done. “Aaah... There is nothing more satisfying than seeing a job well done!? Sakura sighed. “Wha-What’s that?? The girl asked when she heard a loud thump on the side of the house. She walked over to the window, moved the blinds, and looked out. what she saw was something she though she would never see again. And, someone she though she would never see again. “Is... is that...? The green eyed girl turned and ran out the front door. Sakura made a quick turn around the side of the house and stood frozen. What she had seen from inside, was now right in front of her. She hadn’t imagined it. Syaoran wasn’t in China anymore, he was in Sakura’s yard, fighting a monster. ****** “S-Sakura...? Syaoran’s eyes opened wide as her saw her. Sakura couldn’t get the words to come to her mouth, instead, she walked up slowly, and stilthfully, taking long, smooth strides, until she was inches away from Syaoran. “Hey Syaoran. Long time, no see.? She said softly. “Sakura, it’s been so long. You-You look so much older.? Syaoran’s eyes slowly trailed up her body. Her legs had grown, and looked much mature, along with her tight waste. He blushed softly, then quickly looked up into her face. Her green eyes, still the same as ever. Only one thing was different. Her hair. It was now longer. Syaoran’s thoughts were stopped in an instant, for in that second, Sakura leaned forward, rapped her arms around his neck, and kissed him. A long, lingering kiss. ****** Sakura smiled at him. “Syaoran, I’ve missed you so much. but wha-? She stopped as the monster Syaoran had previously been fighting was getting a little impatient. A smile crossed Syaoran’s lips. “I’ll take care of this, then we can catch up on things.? He turned and ran toward the monster, sword raised in a position ready to attack. And with one, quick swipe, the beast was cut in two. “Shall we continue?? Syaoran asked, walking back to Sakura. Sakura nodded. “S-Sure.?She answered. (Why can’t I talk without stuttering?) Sakura asked herself. (It isn’t like we’ve just met or anything...) Her thought was interrupted by another voice, one she didn’t recognize. “Why, hello there. So, you are the lovely Sakura I’ve heard so much about?? A young girl, about Sakura’s age with the same green eyes and hair color as Sakura’s, long brown hair pulled into a pony tail in the middle of her back, reached a hand out to her. “My name is Kaguya, Kaguya Kinamote.? she greeted politely. A confused look crossed Sakura’s face. “Yes, I’m Sakura, Sakura Kinomoto.?She answered softly. “And who might you be?? Kaguya smiled sweetly. “I’m Syaoran’s girlfriend, and future fiancee.? “F-Fiancee...? Sakura managed to choke out. ****** “Sakura...? Syaoran looked down into Sakura’s eyes. “You, you looks so much older. I just can’t believe I’ve been away for so long.? “I told you I would wait forever.... and I have.? Sakura gave a sly smile and leaned in for another kiss. Syaoran was taken back by her outgoing attitude. First one kiss, and now another. He softly pulled her from him, but kept his hands on her slender shoulders. “What’s wron-?Sakura gasped. “I’m sorry. I’m moving way to fast. It’s just that... That... I haven’t seen you for so long... That’s, all...?She let out a small whimper as a tear fell from her eye. Syaoran shook his head. “No, it is all right... I understand...? He whispered into her hear. Syaoran pulled her closed and stood for a long while, in each other’s embrace. ****** Sakura awoke with a gasp. She was breathing heavily, and her palms and forehead were perpetrating. She looked down and realized that she had been clenching her hands into fists. She slowly released them, and looked down to the floor. “It was just a dream... just a dream...? She told herself. with a quick glance she noticed that the house wasn’t nearly as clean as it was in her dream. The green eyed girl made her way upstairs and into her room. With a thump, she fell onto her bed. “Why... why do I keep having these dreams...? Sakura hugged her pillow tightly and repeated over and over to herself, that these horrible dreams meant nothing, and that nothing was wrong, and nothing was going to be wrong. ****** “Oh no...? Sakura whined as she looked at her watch. “I have to go.? Syaoran shook his head. “You can’t go now, it’s been so long, and we’ve barely been able to say ten words to each other.? “One touch is worth more than one thousand words.? She smiled at him. “Bu now, I must go.? “Where are you going to go??Syaoran asked concerned. Sakura’s smile widened. “I have a place a few blocks away. But, you know, I wouldn’t mind some company...? She trailed off, leaving the sentence to float between them. A small gust of wind rolled past, making strands of Sakura’s hair fall into her face. This, of course, made Sakura look even more beautiful than Syaoran could ever imagine. “We have a guest room, if you want to stay there.? Syaoran offered. Sakura grabbed his arm. “Show me the way.? ****** “Sakura! The house isn’t clean yet! dad’s not going to be happy!? Touya’s voice floated into Sakura’s room. She set down the book she had been reading and walked down the stairs. “It is your turn to clean! I cleaned already.? Touya let out a heavy sigh. ‘You are so difficult, Sakura. No wonder you don’t have a boyfriend.? He rudely commented. “Fine, I’ll clean the rest.? Sakura smiled. “Thanks!? She then turned and headed back into her room. Sakura picked up her phone, and with a push of one button, Tomoyo’s number began to dial. “Mushi mushi?? “Hey Tomoyo, this is Sakura.? “Oh, hi Sakura-chan!? “I had another dream...? ****** Alrighty then.
