Title: Confessing

By: DarkNightDreamer

A/N: Okay! This is a two-shot, or really, two one-shots. So…yeah. Enjoy!

Disclaimer: CCS not belong to me. I weep. Not.

Summary: Syaoran had never, ever thought that confessing would be such a hard thing to do.

Syaoran never, in his sixteen years of life, had ever ever thought that confessing would be such a hard hurdle to jump over.

Especially to a seemingly dense and innocent, albeit sweet and cute childhood girl.

Running agitated fingers through his messy chestnut locks, he scowled.

Sigh. The things he did for the love of his life.

Summoning all his strength and courage, he drew himself to full height, and prepared to walk as dignified as he could, over to his object of affection.

Only to be blocked by the two people in the world that he did not want to meet at all.

Nuh-uh.

"Ah…my dearest descendant," Eriol drawled almost lazily, "Now where are you off to, eh?"

Syaoran, already spent and nervous, clenched his jaw dangerously, fists flexing.

This was something he did not need right now.

Eriol's companion, the pale complexioned Tomoyo, smiled serenely, and did not input any side comments. For once.

And just when he thought he could get away with it, she just had to open her big fat mouth and say something. Not that he meant 'big fat' anyway…

Did he?

But, anyhow, that was beside the point. Not that there was one. Whatever.

So, here Li Syaoran, future leader of the Li Clan, caught red-handed in action by two perfectly harmless people. For heaven's sakes, they weren't even kidnappers!

Right now, though, he certainly wished they were. Then, he could at least kick their (ahem) sorry asses (ahem).

But…They weren't. Life was so cruel sometimes. Poor Syaoran. He sighed inwardly.

"Were you looking for Sakura-chan, Li-kun?" Noooooooo! She saw right through him!

She grinned most charmingly. There was the faintest trace of a Hiiragizawa there…

Gesturing towards the ladies' bathroom across the dim room, the Daidouji heiress spoke yet again in her soft melodious voice.

"I'm sure she's in there, Li-kun. Perhaps you'd like to wait before breaking the news to her…?" She raised a perfectly shaped eyebrow, hints of a smile playing around the corners of her lips.

'Li-kun' could only nod dumbly. Wait. Was she implying something there…?

And suddenly, Sakura was just there.

He freaked.

"Eep!" Squealing in the least manly way, he jumped a mile into the air, and backed quickly away from the new arrival, straight into a wall.

"Syaoran…kun…?" Sakura questioned, sweatdropping, innocent emerald eyes wide.

Breathe in, breathe out. Breathe in, breathe out.

Right. Breathe when?

Immediately panicking, Syaoran pushed a snickering Eriol and a calmly smiling Tomoyo, and quickly led a dumbstruck Sakura into a random corner.

"Hoe…?" She gasped.

Standing uncomfortably in front of her petite form, Syaoran avoided her eye contact.

How in all cards was he supposed to do this?

He took a deep breath. He remembered! Something in him rejoiced.

Minding racing, he said...

"S—sa—sakura?" Oh...smooth, Li. Smooth.

"Yes?" She asked, foot tapping, almost expectantly.

He gulped.

"Um…there's something I need to tell you…"

"O-kay…" She mouthed slowly, words lolling around on her tongue.

"I…I lo—" He started.

A/N: HAH! I'M GONNA END IT THERE, PEOPLES! D So cruel, eh?

Well, if you wanna know the rest, review, review, review! ) Flames accepted. Hopefully, it's not that bad though…( Also, if someone has already done this plot once, I'm sorry! I didn't plagiarize, I swear!

So, review! D
