AUTHORS NOTE: To clear things up, as many of you have seen, that I keep reposting the same chapters over again. I currently re-read my chapters and realized how horrible they were (grammar wise). So, I will be revising the chapters and changing a few things around, but not to worry, the storyline will stay the same.
Discalimer: I do not, nor will I ever, own any part of Cardcaptor Sakura.
Title: She will be loved
Chapter 1: Crush
"1, 2, 3, 5, 4, 6, 10, ready or not, here I come," a young, five year old Sakura yelled as she opened her beautiful jade eyes and started to search the yard. She was playing hide and go seek with one of her best friends, Li Syaoran.
"Where are you Syaoran!" her small voice yelled as she ran around with her small chubby legs looking behind bushes and trees for Syaoran. She ran for about ten minutes before she tired out and fell to the floor.
"Okay Syaoran, I give up, you can come out."
She sat on the cool grass and waited, but no one came out and the yard was silent.
"Syaoran, where are you?"
Sakura got up and started calling him, she was worried that something bad had happened to Syaoran.
"Syaoran!" she kept repeating the same thing, but still no answer.
Her plump cheeks became rosy and she became frustrated. She was about to go inside when she heard a small noise.
She quickly turned around and standing at the doorway into her house was Syaoran.
"Syaoran, there you are!" she was relieved and ran over to give her best friend a big hug.
Syaoran felt Sakura's arms tightly grip his neck and he flushed. He was too surprised to hug her back and soon the wonderful warm feeling disappeared as Sakura took her arms off of Syaoran's neck.
"Where were you Syaoran?"
"I thought something bad had happened to you!" Sakura yelled at Syaoran as she put her small hands on her hips.
Syaoran didn't know what to say and slowly looked to the ground.
Sakura started tapping her small foot and stood there waiting for an answer from him.
"Oh, well I…" Sakura started to say but was interrupted by Syaoran, "I had to use the bathroom," he said in a soft and timid voice.
Sakura started giggling and laughing, "You should have seen yourself Syaoran, you looked like you were being yelled at by your mother" she giggled.
"Don't worry, I'm not really mad, I just like to play with you," she finished with a smile.
He raised his big chocolate brown eyes and they twinkled with joy.
"You're my bestest friend Syaoran" Sakura happily said and Syaoran's cheeks didn't fail to blush slightly.
"Sakura, Syaoran come inside for lunch!" Fujitaka yelled from inside the house.
Both their faces lit up with joy and they ran inside and sat on the chairs.
They were both small, loud, and had very big appetites, especially Sakura. Fujitaka served them their food quickly before they started making a ruckus.
He took his plate and sat to eat with the children. He watched them eat their food and slightly laughed as he saw Sakura taking Syaorans leftovers.
He was grateful to have such a beautiful daughter, and he was glad she had a good friend like Syaoran.
He wondered what his wife would say were she to see how much Sakura had grown. Even though she had passed away four years ago, he still thought about her. She was his first and only love.
When leukemia claimed her life he became fearful that the same would happen to the children. Every night he would say a little prayer to keep Touya and Sakura safe.
He wasn't a religious person, but a little faith never hurt.
He was interrupted from his thoughts as he heard the chairs sliding across the floor as Sakura and Syaoran got up.
The two children raced out of the kitchen and up the stairs. "Be careful, don't fall now," Fujitaka told them as they bumped into Touya and almost threw him down.
"Hey, watch it you little monsters" he yelled back.
Sakura ignored her brother and ran into her room with Syaoran a few steps away.
They both jumped on the bed and started laughing as they bounced up and down.
"What do you want to do Syaoran?"
"I don't what do you want to do?
"I don't know what do you want to do?"
"I don't what do you want to do?"
They kept on asking the same thing over and over until both started laughing and stopped bouncing on the bed.
Sakura got off the bed and went over to her desk and got some crayons and a notebook.
"Let me show you the stuff my dad got me for school."
Syaoran listened as Sakura showed him her books and crayons, and then he saw her pretty pink backpack with a little bear drawing on the front.
He enjoyed being with Sakura. She was fun and pretty. Even if she didn't know it, Syaoran liked her a little bit, but he hoped Sakura would never find out because then she would think he was weird and not be his friend anymore.
He watched as her small locks of hair bounced up and down as she moved around putting her things away.
"Did you hear me Syaoran?"
"What did you say again?"
"I said I hope we are in the same kindergarten class next year."
"Me too."
"I wonder how kindergarten is, how do you think it is Syaoran?" Sakura asked as she sat on the floor.
"I don't know, I hope it's fun and I hope the people are nice"
"I think it is a big place full of toys, desks and books, we'll finally be big kids. But Touya said the teachers are mean and they make you write so much that you're fingers can fall off, he said it happened to a girl in his class."
Syaoran's eyes widened as Sakura explained kindergarten.
"But dad said not to listen to him. He said it's fun and we get to learn new things."
"Oh, good, I hope it is fun"
"Don't worry, we have Tomoyo. She is going to kindergarten too," Sakura reassured him.
"I hope they have sports I can play," Syaoran said.
"Yeah, I hope they have a big yard we can play in."
Sakura began playing with the hem of her dress when her dad came into the room.
"Syaoran, your mom is here to pick you up" Fujitaka said as Syaoran got up with Sakura close behind.
"Come on, lets get your jacket," Sakura said as she followed Syaoran down the stairs.
She went into the living room and on the sofa was Yelan sitting, waiting patiently.
"Hello Yelan" she said and bowed her head as she made her way to the sofa.
"Hello Sakura" Yelan answered and smiled as she watched the little girl struggle to get on the sofa.
"Are you taking Syaoran already?" she asked in a small voice.
"Yes, but don't worry he's coming back tomorrow to stay over" She smiled as she saw Sakura perk up with joy.
"I'm ready mother," Syaoran said and they all stood up.
Sakura walked to the door and said goodbye to Syaoran.
She planted a small kiss on his cheek and she giggled as Syaoran blushed madly.
"Good bye Syaoran, I'll see you tomorrow."
