Sakura's Secret:
Syaoran wondered where Sakura always went. Everyday after school, she always disappeared to some place. Toya had one time called him, worried because Sakura was late in coming home.
But Syaoran didn't know where she was, or where she went everyday. He wondered if she was seeing a boyfriend. He hoped not; but knew that Toya would have told him. Toya hated Syaoran, but Syaoran was better for Sakura than any other guy.
He gazed at her as she took notes on the lecture.
"Mr. Li" the teacher said sharply "could you listen to the lecture; or do you need detention?"
Syaoran felt his face go red "no, sorry sir" he mumbled.
He ignored Sakura's worried gaze and bent his head as he started writing.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syaoran watched as the girl ahead of him walked down the street. He wondered why he was following her, and then shrugged. He wanted to figure out Sakura's secret.
He watched as she entered a garden store. She emerged a few minutes later, carrying a small plastic bag.
He followed her onto the bus, trying to keep from being noticed.
She didn't appear to see him. Instead, she leaned her head against the window and gazed outside.
She got off at the stop at the city's limit. He followed her quickly and followed her down a dirt road.
She went around a corner, and he sped up, only to find that she was gone.
He had to keep from gasping at the view.
It was a sea of flowers. The beauty astounded him.
He ducked down as he saw her stand.
She appeared to be gardening.
Syaoran smiled slightly, so this was her secret.
He crept back and once he was around the corner, began to stride down the road, his hands in his pockets.
He now knew Sakura's secret, and he would keep it as well. It was a beautiful place, full of Cherry Blossom trees and Nadeshiko flowers along with white lilies and violets.
It was Sakura's secret; it would be wrong for him to tell.

Part Two:
Sakura lay on her bed, listening to the rain patter against the roof.
She hoped that the flowers in her Secret Spot were all right.
Her birthday was tomorrow, and she hoped to be able to have a picnic there, if it wasn't raining.
She sighed, and let her eyes close. There was nothing she could do; she would just have to wait for what the next day would bring.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sakura rounded the corner and stared in amazement at the view.
Carefully erected around her flowers was an iron fence.
Cautiously, Sakura walked up to the gate. There was only a short note. It read:
Happy birthday Sakura
Syaoran
Sakura read it and smiled. It was too muddy for a picnic lunch today. So she will just have to invite Syaoran for a picnic tomorrow.
