[There aren't really any page numbers on this thing, so I'm making them up. I skipped the title page, which shows a mug and says merely "Card Captor Sakura."]

pg. 1

At Tomoeda Elementary. In the classroom, Sakura and Tomoyo turn around to gaze worriedly at Shaoran.

Sakura: Shaoran-kun...

He is flushed, and his breathing is labored.

Terada-sensei: All right, that's it for today. Don't forget your homework!

Class: (OKAAAAAAY.)

Sakura immediately gets up and goes to Shaoran.

Sakura: Are you all right?

Shaoran: *very obviously not okay* ...Yeah, I'm okay.

Tomoyo: His face is red. Maybe he has a cold?

pg. 2

Sakura reaches out to feel his forehead with her hand. She leans in close as Shaoran's eyes get very, very wide.

Sakura: You're burning up!

At this, Shaoran gets even redder and keels over on his desk, eyes spiralling.

Sakura: *sweatdropping and alarmed* WHAT'S WRONG!!? SHAORAN-KUN!!

Tomoyo: *with an oh-my expression* His fever seems to have gotten even worse.

pg. 3

Outside the school.

Sakura: Are you sure you're all right?

Shaoran: ...Yeah. I'm just gonna go home, take some drugs, and go to bed.

Tomoyo: Please keep yourself warm, okay?

Shaoran nods.

Sakura is watching him, still clearly worried.

Shaoran: Really... I'll be fine.

pg. 4

He heads home.

Tomoyo: I hope Ri-kun gets better soon.

Sakura: *gazing after him* ...Yeah.

pg. 5

At the Kinomoto house, in the kitchen, the boys are both in aprons. ^^

Yuki: It's boil--ing!

Touya: Okay.

Yuki: What are we making today?

Touya: (Hmmmm.) Good question.

A downcast Sakura walks in.

Sakura: I'm home.

Yuki: *smiling perkily* (Ah.) Welcome back.

Sakura: (Oh, hello, Yukito-san.)

Yuki: (?) What is it?

pg. 6

He kneels down to look her in the eye.

Yuki: Something's wrong, isn't it? Are you worried about something?

Sakura: Shaoran-kun is...

Touya frowns.

A cup of tea later.

Yuki: Oh, I see.

pg. 7

Sakura: His fever was really high...

Yuki: Probably a cold. (From being out in so late at night lately.) You're worried about him, huh?

She nods.

Yuki looks up at Touya, who heaves an audible sigh.

He holds out a wrapped bento box to Sakura.

pg. 8

Sakura: Huh?

He brother glares.

Touya: Take it.

Sakura: Where?

Touya: *turning his back* The brat lives alone, doesn't he? If he's that sick, he's not gonna be able to cook for himself.

Sakura: *amazed* Okay!

pg. 9

She runs upstairs.

Sakura: I'll change clothes! I'll go right away!

Back in the kitchen, Yuki is beaming.

Yuki: That was sweet, Oniichan.

Touya: *arms crossed* Hmph.

At Shaoran's house. Dressed in pjs and a cardigan sweater, clearly unfit to be standing, he is holding up a cooking pot and staring at it woozily. A packet of medicine and a glass of water sit on the table nearby. He sighs.

Shaoran: I can't take that stuff without eating something... but my head...

pg. 10

The doorbell rings. Shaoran goes to his video/phone/intercom.

Shaoran: Who... who is it?

Sakura's worried face appears on the screen.

Shaoran: Sa... SAKURA!?

They sit down on the couches in the living room.

Sakura: Sorry to come so suddenly. My brother fixed this for you.

She holds out the bento box.

Sakura: Do you think you can you eat?

Shaoran: Y... yeah.

He is very red, and not entirely from the fever.

pg. 11

Sakura: *relieved* (Oh, good.) And I was wondering if I could use your kitchen. (Is that okay?)

Shaoran: (?) I... I don't mind, but... (?)

Sakura: (Thanks.)

She heads for the kitchen, carrying a bag of something, as Shaoran blinks.

Sakura: *turning briefly to smile at him* You eat, okay?

He watches her go with lovey-dovey eyes.

pg. 12

When she returns, carrying a small tray, he is digging into his Touya-Made (TM) dinner. On the tray is a steaming hot mug of...something.

Sakura: Here you go.

Shaoran: That's...

Sakura: Milk with honey. I always drink it when I have a cold.

pg. 13

She hands him the mug.

Sakura: I hope your fever goes down soon.

Shaoran goes all lovey-dovey again. Then he closes his eyes and takes a sip from the mug.

Sakura: *nervously* Is it okay? It's not too sweet?

pg. 14

Shaoran: No... it tastes good.

She smiles.

Sakura: Drink warm honey milk and get lots of sleep, and I hope you feel better tomorrow.

pg. 15

Shaoran: ...Yeah. I'm sure I'll be fine.

*END*

Back to CCS.
