Ch. 2
"Sakura-chan…lighten up! Its Christmas! There's no need to be sad!" Tomoyo said to Sakura as they entered the mall that was bright with holidays lights and smelled of fresh Christmas trees.
Sakura sighed and smiled to her friend. "I know Tomoyo…thank-you for trying to cheer me up but this is going to be another Christmas without the one I love…Syaoran…"
"Don't worry…he said he'll come back and he will…Syaoran never broke his promises!" Tomoyo said assuring her friend
"But its been so long since I've even seen him…2 years, Tomoyo…and I miss him so much…my heart hurts…" Sakura said wiping a tear away
"Sakura, please promise me that you will enjoy this Christmas!" Tomoyo said
"I promise…" Sakura said unwillingly
"Good…now lets do some major shopping!" Tomoyo squealed pulling Sakura into Claire's
Sakura let herself be yanked by Tomoyo to nearly every store in the mall. She didn't but much of course because she bought all her friends presents.
They looked around enjoying all the window decorations, the Christmas tree, the kiddy train and of course that annoying singing Santa Claus.
(I hate those stupid things! J)
"Phew! I'm exhausted…eh, Sakura?" Tomoyo said sinking into a bench
"You said it! Geez..there were so many sales though…" Sakura replied sitting down also
"I can't believe Christmas is only a week away! Look at all the people doing last minute Christmas shopping!" Tomoyo said laughing as she saw a fat lady carrying ten big bags and fall into the pond.
Sakura laughed too especially when the lady tried to get up but stepped on a fish in the process
"Well, your coming over for Christmas dinner with Eriol and I right?"
"Of course! I can't wait!"
"Ok, good…but we better go before it gets dark…" Tomoyo said looking at the cloudy sky
"Ok…" Sakura said getting up
Sakura and Tomoyo headed back to the car which was now covered in snow.
driving
"Well, good-bye Sakura!" Tomoyo said dropping of Sakura at her house
"Bye Tomoyo! Call me later!" Sakura said waving bye
When Tomoyo's car drove out of sight, Sakura walked to her doorstep and unlocked the door. She stepped into her empty house and went into her room.
'I'm so tired…yawn…so tired ever since Syaoran left for China…' Sakura thought to herself 'I have to stop worrying myself…Syaoran needed to go to father…
'But I wish he would at least write to me…I don't have his address or e-mail or even a number…what if he forgot about me?'
Sakura hugged her pillow and sighed… 'I miss you so much, Little Wolf'
She kept thinking and thinking until midnight where she fell asleep holding a picture of her and Syaoran under the cherry blossom tree.
In China
Syaoran and Ryu are at China's Biggest Mall, shopping for some late Christmas presents. (A/N: I just made up the mall name and Ryu is Mei-Ling's boyfren)
They (or rather Ryu dragged Syaoran along) walked from store to store looking for things that would make all their friends and family happy. Ryu was done with his X-mas shopping and they sat down on the bench for a rest.
Syaoran sighed, totally out of the Christmas spirit.
"Syaoran geez, lighten up a bit…its Christmas! Why are you so sad? I mean your dad got a full recovery from the heart-attack and now he's walking around like nothing happened!" Ryu said sitting down by Syaoran
"Sorry, but you have Mei-Ling, the one you love and I want to be in Tomoeda with Sakura this year…I don't get why my mom won't let me contact her or even go visit her!" Syaoran said sighing
"I'm sorry man, but I still say you go and ask your mom what the deal is…" Ryu said feeling sorry for Syaoran
"Yeah…I'll go do that as soon as we get home…" Syaoran looked at the tiles on the ground
Ryu looked up to see a bunch of girls giggling and pointing at the two of them. He nudged Syaoran who just glared but also noticed the bunch of girls.
A tall girl with long midnight blue hair and a pretty face that had the 'player' look, came up to Syaoran and bent down to kiss his cheek. She sat down next to him and licked his ear.
Syaoran turned away and hissed to Ryu, "Make her go away! Before I do something I'm going to regret!"
Ryu nodded nervously and said, "Leave my friend alone…um…he has a girlfriend!"
Syaoran rubbed his temples thinking, 'Ryu, you dummy'
But the girl ignored Ryu and whispered seductively to Syaoran, "Hey, baby…aren't you sexy…why don't you come over and we can get together…"
"No, that's okay. I think I'll pass." Syaoran said annoyed
"Are you sure? I know you want some of this…" the girl said shoving her chest in Syaoran's face
But Syaoran refused getting even more mad and moved farther away from the girl.
"Playing hard to get? C'mon baby…all you want for Christmas is me…" the girl said winking to her friends who were giggling and laughing like hyenas
That last part of her sentence made him stand up in front of her clenching his fists in anger.
"Shut-up you whore…I don't want anything for Christmas but Sakura, not a bitch like you."
The girl blinked in surprise and looked at her friends in shock. They just stared wondering what was going to happen next. But the girl recovered and said, "Sakura? Who's Sakura?"
"No one…go away." Syaoran said
"Puhshhh…who cares I should go after someone who's handsome and not lame." the girl said flipping her hair in Syaoran's face and going back to her friends. She snapped her fingers as a signal to follow her.
Ryu just looked at Syaoran and shrugged. "Want to go home?"
Syaoran nodded and followed Ryu to the car.
Ryu drove back to Syaoran back to his mansion and said good-bye.
Syaoran watched Ryu's car drive away in to the darkness and then walked inside.
"Syaoran! Where'd you go? I've been looking all over for you!" Yelan Li asked cheerfully
But Syaoran wasn't in the mood and snapped back, "Mother, leave me alone…I've had a bad day plus this is the worst Christmas ever!"
Yelan sighed as she watched her son stomp up the stairs and slam his bedroom door.
"Sakura…I miss you so much…I hope you aren't mad at me for not being able to contact you…I wish I was there…" Syaoran whispered to himself looking at the picture of him and Sakura sitting beneath the Cherry blossom tree when they were 12.
"Sakura, eh? Now who's this girl you're talking about?" a low voice said from behind him
Syaoran turned around and gasped.
