Last Chapter:

If this was years ago, Touya would be running to Syaoran's house and demanding that he should be let in. However, after the 8 years that Touya has known Syaoran, he trusted him.

"I trust in them too," Touya said quietly.

Back at Syaoran's house, Syaoran hung up the phone and turned out all the lights. He found the way back to his room and went to check up on Sakura. He entered the room and saw Sakura sleeping peacefully. Syaoran shut the door carefully. He turned around to face the bed.

"She looks like an angel," thought Syaoran. He stared at Sakura. The light from the moon, shining through the room, shined on her and illuminated her face.

Syaoran has been her friend for all these years. As the days passed, he started to feel something else more than friendship for this girl. Over the years, he felt something for this girl. Maybe it was love…?

"No, I can't think that. She's dating Ken," thought Syaoran.

Syaoran cringed. He was heartbroken the day he found out about it. Sakura seemed so happy about it that he didn't want to ruin everything by confessing to her about his feelings. One smile from this girl could brighten his day. He never wanted to see her cry tears of unhappiness. For some apparent reason, he knew he fell in love with this girl. He knew it wasn't just a crush. It seemed weird that he could fall in love with this girl so easily.

Before Syaoran knew it, he was sitting on the bed gently caressing Sakura's hair. "It's so soft and silky," thought Syaoran. Gently running his hands through her hair, he stared at her face. For some apparent reason he could not stop starring at her. Her angelic face, her soft and silky hair, luscious lips… "Stop it," Syaoran mentally scolded himself. Syaoran got up from the bed and sat in the chair (Author's note: Just pretend there is a nightlight on the room so you can see where you are going.

Suddenly Sakura sat up with a start. She had sweat pouring down from her face. Syaoran immediately went to the bedside and sat down. He gripped the sides of Sakura's shoulders gently but firmly.

"What happened?" asked Syaoran, face filled with worry. He knew there was nothing in this room that would possibly scare her. Maybe she had a bad dream. Once again, he asked Sakura about what happened. This time he asked in a calmer voice and got a reply from Sakura.

"I had a bad dream…," said Sakura.

"I guess that I had guessed right. She really did have a bad dream," thought Syaoran.

"The dream was about what happened today that made me so upset," continued Sakura.

"Tell me what happened," soothed Syaoran as he wrapped his arms around Sakura gently. Sakura leaned into the embrace and sobbed silently. She rested her head in his chest. Syaoran leaned against the wall and patted Sakura's back lightly.

"I guess I should tell you what happen," mumbled Sakura into Syaoran's chest. "You see, it really simple but it hurts me so much. Sakura tried to hold back the oncoming sobs and tears.

"Take your time," said Syaoran. He was listening carefully. "You don't really have to tell me if you don't want to…"

"You did so much to comfort me and make me feel happy. I think I need to tell you. You see… Ken cheated on me. Don't say anything yet. I know it sounds really stupid. Crying over something so stupid but it really hurts." By the time Sakura blurted everything out, her face was filled with tears once again.

Syaoran was filled with fury. How dare Ken hurt Sakura! "Sakura, it's not stupid to cry and feel hurt. He is the one that is stupid. It's his own fault that he cheated on you and lost someone precious like you. He is not worth your time. Cry… Cry because you are hurt. Don't cry because he broke up for you. Don't cry for him or anything he did."

"Thanks for comforting me Syaoran. Thank you so much. It means so much to me," said Sakura as she let out more tears.

"You mean so much to me," thought Syaoran. "No need to thank me Sakura," said Syaoran.

They stayed like that. Syaoran leaned against the wall, Sakura leaned into his embracement. Her head and hands rested gently on his chest. Syaoran had his arms protectively yet gently around Sakura making sure that no one took her away from him again. It was a sweet scene. Anyone who saw it would be smiling and commenting on how they were such a cute couple. Soon Sakura stopped crying and fell asleep. A few minutes after that, Syaoran fell asleep too. They both slept comfortably. Syaoran slept peacefully knowing that Sakura was safe and Sakura slept soundly, knowing that Syaoran would protect her. Both of them forgot their current problems and slept till the next day.
