@goldenloved asked for x//iaosaku fluff.
high school seems to have brought out the more studious nature of their relationship. often times , after school , xiaolang would find himself over at the kinomoto household and studying in sakura’s room ( with the door cracked open , as kinomoto “ joked ” while staring straight at xiaolang. he always seemed to be around while xiaolang was , but often with tsukishiro-san in tow , which was different from keroberos , who often times escaped sakura’s room claiming that he can’t handle the atmosphere and usually gorged himself with snacks in the dining room. ).
often times , xiaolang would finish the work first ( especially in maths , which was one of his favourite subjects along with history ) and help sakura with any work that she didn’t seem to understand. other times , sakura seemed determined to finish the work on her own without any help. sometimes , however , xiaolang thinks he’s more of a distraction than a help.
today is one such a day. having already finished his homework for today , xiaolang is studying a business book his family suggested he read ( this one in chinese -- sometimes , the business books he reads are in english or in japanese ) , but he can feel the way that sakura’s eyes dart up from her homework and back down again. upon the fifth time it happens , xiaolang sets his book down and catches sakura’s eyes before her gaze could dart back down again , and sakura’s cheeks turn a light red.
before sakura could apologise , xiaolang offers , ‘ would you like to take a break ? ’ and , with his own cheeks flushing a little bit red , he pats his thighs from sitting in a seiza position. ( it’s not the first time either of them have offered each other a lap pillow -- xiaolang can think of one day in particular where they spent most of a sunday in the park and traded times laying down and sitting down while talking. ). sakura’s expression brightens , even as the blush continues , and she comes over to xiaolang’s side of the table to lay her head down.
“ i don’t know how you can always do the homework so fast , xiaolang-kun , ” sakura says , peering up at xiaolang. one of xiaolang’s hands finds itself smoothing through sakura’s hair and sometimes playing with the ends , causing sakura to smile even brighter at him.
‘ my japanese comprehension is a lot better from when i was a child , ’ xiaolang says. what he doesn’t say is that the amount of homework given by japanese teachers was nothing in comparison to his tutors back in hong kong , who would rarely give him a chance to breathe. that had been expected , of course , as the next head of household of the entire li clan.
( sometimes , he really did miss hong kong so much that he aches. there was nothing quite like going into the city and eating a char siu bao from one of the stalls as it burns the roof of his mouth. he loves tomoeda , and the quietness of it all , but he does miss the city sometimes. but , with any feelings of homesickness , all he does to get rid of it is to look at sakura , and he knows he made the right choice. ).
“ hoeeee , ” sakura says under her breath in amazement , and xiaolang can’t help the smile blossoming on his face as he peers down at sakura. an impulse comes to mind , and before he could over think it , he bends over to kiss sakura’s forehead. immediately , however , he springs back up , face flushing red ( as sakura is also turning ) , but neither of them break apart.
“ don’t apologise , ” sakura says before the word “ sorry ” could come on his lips. there’s a soft smile on her face , crinkles forming around the corner of her eyes. love is in her gaze , and xiaolang finds his shoulders relaxing as he looks back at her. ( there’s a promise of infinity in her eyes , and xiaolang would give up anything and everything just for her to keep looking at him like that. they’re technically too young to think about marriage , but xiaolang knows he wants to spend the rest of his life with her , wants to see her like this every day -- but also in other ways. hair ruffled from taking a nap , eyes excited as she looks at a dessert he makes , angry pout forming on her face from arguing with her brother or keroberos , beautiful smile as she hugs daidōji. ).
he thinks these thoughts must be reflected back in her eyes , and he finds himself leaning in , just as she moves up. before their lips could meet in a kiss , there’s a knock on the door , and the two of them startle. xiaolang’s hand reaches to catch sakura’s head before she could accidentally slam it on the table , and sakura’s hand reaches to grab his shirt so he doesn’t accidentally lose his balance and fall backwards. as one , the two of them look in the doorway to see kinomoto standing there , neutral look on his face as he considers the two of them.
“ dinner is ready , ” kinomoto says , and his eyes seem to bore into xiaolang’s soul. he can’t help but flush , even as sakura stands up with an angry pout on her face.
“ oni-chan , ” she whines , making sure to say “ demon ” rather than “ brother ” , xiaolang’s sure. xiaolang himself stands up , and he pats sakura’s shoulder ( a little more comfortable with sharing at least some affection under kinomoto’s glare after this long ). in fact , while he’s particularly aware of kinomoto’s gaze , it seems unimportant when sakura looks at him , the pout automatically turning into a smile.
‘ after dinner , i’ll help you with your work , ’ he says , and sakura brightens further. a cough from kinomoto reminds them of his presence , and , finally , the three of them leave for dinner ( sakura and xiaolang walking hand-in-hand ).
