Author's Note: This story has been uploaded before. Around 3-4 years ago I think. Though I am not sure. Looking back, I'm guilty that I didn't finish it. So here. This is my second chance to complete it. I uploaded it again because I can't open my other account so there's no hope of updating it there. I hope you like it again.
P.S. please read my other story, Breaking Ground Rules.

Summary: Sakura is being taken care of by Touya, while their father was away in South Africa, researching about rare artifacts. Being a good girl, what happens when temptation comes and makes her give in?
Chapter One:
Sakura looked out the window to the cherry tree outside. They were four floors up and she could see birds. She sighed as she chewed on her pencil.
"The World War ended in..." Her History teacher was talking in front with his face buried in a book; he couldn't see that with seven more minutes till school ends, the class was already restless. Sakura dropped her pencil on her desk and looked at Tomoyo's frantic attempts to get her attention. Tomoyo was mouthing words to her but she couldn't understand. Defeated, Tomoyo got out her phone and gestured Sakura to do the same.
Sakura felt her phone vibrate in her pocket. Cursing softly, she took it out and read Tomoyo's message with her phone under the desk so she wouldn't be seen.
It read: "Hey... Will you please go shopping with me today after school?"
Sakura smiled and hit the reply button. "I don't think I can, I'll ask Touya. I think I'm supposed to cook dinner tonight."
She looked over at Tomoyo and saw that she was frowning as she punched the keys of her cellphone.
Sakura's phone vibrated again and she read it, "Okay. Its going to be really quick. I'll take you home."
Sakura smiled and looked at Tomoyo who was looking at her expectantly. She gave her the thumbs up. Tomoyo smiled and texted her again.
"Sometimes I think the only way you go with me is because you get free rides." it said. Sakura bit her bottom lip to stop herself from laughing and replied, "I love you too, Tomoyo. :)"
Just as she was putting the phone back in her pocket, the bell rang and the class busied itself with putting their books and cleaning up their desks. As she was putting her History book in her bag, Tomoyo stopped infront of her.
"Okay. I'll just need to get the new camera that's out today." Tomoyo said as she hitched her bag more securely on her shoulders.
Sakura zipped her bag and put the bag over her shoulder. "Sure thing. We all know you can't wait to get the new technology in your hands." She said sarcastically. She was right, everyone knew about Tomoyo's passion for videotaping everything happening around her, especially Sakura.
They walked down the stairs as Tomoyo kept on breaking down the features of this new camera to her. They changed their shoes in the lockers and they went out to the school yard. THat was when they noticed Mr. Kurogane, the school's assistant principal talking to a tall gracious woman dressed immaculately in white. She had sunglasses on her face and two huge men behind her. Sakura looked at them curiously as Mr. Kurogane nodded and the woman disappeared behind the door one of the men were holding open for her. Tomoyo looked at where Sakura was staring at.
"Wow... She looks so beautiful." Tomoyo said in awe as Sakura nodded her head and kept on walking. Tomoyo followed her as the woman's Mercedes-Benz drove off.
Tomoyo's limousine was right at the school's parking lot. One of Tomoyo's five female bodyguards opened the door for them. They got in and Sakura put down their bags as Tomoyo handed her pineapple juice in a can.
As she started drinking, her phone vibrated again nonstop. She figured that this one was a call so she took it out and answered, "Hello?"
"Kaiju! What time are you coming home?" Touya's voice was loud in her ear.
Sakura was getting mad but decided to ignore Touya's teasing, "I'm with Tomoyo. She wants to get the new camera released today. I'll be back home by dinner." She silently prayed that Touya will just get up and cook dinner himself.
"Okay then. I'll be waiting with Yukito. He's bringing food over. Be safe, Kaiju." Without letting Sakura answer back, he ended the call.
Tomoyo looked at her as she sipped her orange juice. "Anything wrong?"
Sakura shook her head. "Nope. Touya just wanted to know where I was."
Tomoyo nodded as the intercom went on, "We're nearly there, Ms. Daiduji."
Tomoyo laughed and pressed the button to asnwer back, "How many times do I have to tell you, Mizuki? You can call me Tomoyo." There was a curt apology on the intercom and Tomoyo smiled at Sakura who put her glass down.
"That's Mizuki. She's new. She insists on calling me Ms. Daiduji. I can't make her stop. Now I feel like I'm my mother. Sakura smiled at that comment. Tomoyo's mother was really beautiful with a really cool haircut for someone her age. She was the owner and president of Daiduji Co.
"She just needs time to adjust to her new master." Sakura remarked.
Tomoyo threw at her one of the soft cushions beside her. "Don't say that. I am not the master. That's my mom."
They gathered up their bags and stepped out when they got to the mall. Tomoyo, who was excited, grabbed Sakura's hand and led her inside.
AAA
"Goodbye, Sakura! Thank you for coming with me today!" Tomoyo's eye was glued to her new camera as she videotaped Sakura get out of the limousine and run up the steps into her house. Giving one final wave, she opened the door and walked inside, almost colliding with Touya who had his arms crossed in front of him.
"You are ten minutes late, Kaiju." He said sternly.
Sakura gave him a small smile and said, "Traffic?"
Touya shook his head. "Whatever. Food is in the living room. Take off your coat and let's go eat."
Sakura nodded and hung her coat at the hook at the back of the door. "Touya!" She called at his retreating back.
Touya stopped and looked at her as she removed her shoes, running up to him in her socked feet, she looked up at Touya's tall frame. "I'll eat in my room. I have tons of homework..."
Touya nodded as he walked back to the living room to where Yukito was. Yukito was on one of the armchairs, books were strewn over the low coffe table as he pored over his notes while chewing on his chopsticks.
"Hello, Yukito." Sakura said with a smile as she entered the room and grabbed one of the boxed food takeouts.
"That's Chicken Teriyaki and hello to you too, Sakura." Yukito said with a heartwarming smile as he gestured to Sakura's choice. Sakura put it down and picked another one.
"That's shrimp with crab meat." Yukito said with a smile. He got it especially since seafood was Sakura's favorite.
Sakura smiled at him and gave him a brotherly kiss on the cheek and went back out, "Got tons of homework, don't eat Yukito, Touya!"
"Hey I'm not GAY!" Touya yelled, bits of rice spraying from his mouth.
"Just checking." Sakura said with a smile as she poked her head back inside. She noticed the rice on the floor, "Don't eat like a pig too."
Touya huffed and ignored her as he buried his face back in a book. Yukito was laughing. He gave Sakura one last wave as he went back on his studying.
Sakura took the stairs two at a time and opened the door to her room. She dropped her bag and food on her desk as she closed the blinds on her windows. She started to undress and change into her pajamas.
AAA
Sakura almost knocked off a vase on her way back to the kitchen. Touya and Yukito were still studying in the living room. It was already midnight and she fell asleep right in the middle of doing homework. She scolded herself as she got herself a cup of coffee. Turning back to her room, she saw Yukito standing on the door, looking at her worriedly.
"Not yet done with homework, I see," Yukito said ruffling Sakura's hair while she sipped her coffee.
"I fell asleep right in the middle of it, Yukito..." she whined as she stomped her foot.
"Tell you what, I'm done with mine. Since I'm spending the night here anyway, I'll help you do yours." He said with a smile. Sakura nodded and rushed back to her room to get her books.
"Okay... So what do we have here?" Yukito said as they sat down on the sofa in the living room. Touya was still poring over his thesis paper.
"I still have Chemistry homework." Sakura said, handing him the book.
"Don't help that little kaiju, Yukito. It's her fault she didn't finish in time." Touya said teasingly. He got hit in the face with a cushion Sakura threw since he didn't avoid it in time.
"It's alright, Touya. I'm done with mine anyway." Yukito said as he studied the Chemistry question.
Sakura waited for a few more seconds before Yukito drew near her. "This is easy, Sakura. You just have to balance the equation then compute for the limiting reactant. Then using your answer in that computation, you get the amount of excess reactant." He said with a soft voice so as not to disturb Touya. Sakura smiled at him and started doing that particular problem.
AAA
"Sakura... Wake up. You'll be late for school."
Sakura opened her eyes and saw Yukito standing over her. She looked around and found out that she was in her room. She remembered vividly that she fell asleep on the living room sofa. "How did I-"
Yukito smiled at her as he opened Sakura's blinds and sunlight flooded the room. "Touya carried you back here. I finshed your homework for you." He pointed to her Chemistry book on her desk.
Sakura smiled as she stretched her arms over her head. Yukito closed the door softly behind him.
"It's already 6am. Class starts at 730 remember?" He reminded her before the door shut with a snap.
Sakura clapped a hand to her forehead as she jumped out of bed and grabbed her towel. She took a quick shower and put on her uniform. She grabbed her backpack from the desk after stuffing her Chemistry book inside it. She looked around and making sure she didn't forget anything, she ran out of her room.
She stopped in the kitchen at the sight of Yukito with an apron and the smell of freshly-made pancakes in the air. Touya was already eating. Sakura forgot about being late in school and smiled at Yukito as he gestured on the table where there was a stack of pancakes in the middle.
"Morning, Kaiju." Touya said with his mouth filled with pancakes.
Sakura ignored him and ate.
AAA
Tomoyo gasped at the sight in front of her. Sakura's hair was in complete disarray and she was panting.
"Left home late. Yukito was there... Cooking..." Sakura was saying in-between breaths.
Tomoyo laughed. She knew about Sakura's weakness for Yukito's cooking. She took off Sakura's backpack and led her to the desk at the back. Their homeroom and History teacher, Mr. Takamuya, separated them since they were noisy together.
"Tomorrow, I'll pick you up." Tomoyo said with a smile as she walked back to her desk just as Mr. Takamuya came in.
Sakura straightened herself and patted her hair down. She took out her ooks as Mr. Takamuya stood in the middle of the classroom. "Okay, class. We're going to start with what we left off-"
He was interrupted by a knock on the door. He sighed and opened the door to reveal a smiling Mr. Kurogane.
"Ahh... Assistant Principal, is it time already?" Mr. Takamuya glanced at his watch. Mr. Kurogane merely smiled and stepped aside to reveal a new student walking in.
