AN: Sorry it's taken me a while to get to writing this.. I just came up with an idea that might get me moving along with the story.. Again. Sorry…

Summary: Syaoran returns after almost eight years to graduate from school in Japan. He and Meilin find things aren't different with them selves as they thought. Sakura is a punk, who gets into trouble, but will she drag Syao into it, or will she send him home before he gets in to deep?

Chapter 4:

Syaoran walked out of his bathroom, wrapped in a towel, and stopped in his tracks. He glared at his cousin who sat on his bed. She smiled up at him, her ruby eyes sparkling.

"Hello cousin" She said softly. "Would you like to tell me where you were last night, so I give your mother a reason why you didn't come to greet her when she arrived?"

"My mother's here?" His eyes narrowed looking at Meilin, who nodded "Where is she now?"

"She's having a morning tea, and would like you to join her, if you don't have to run off to school…"

Syaoran sighed and walked to his dresser, pulling it open. He grabbed his uniform shirt out and put it on. "Mei, get out. I need to get dressed. Tell my mother I'll be down shortly."

Meilin laughed and walked out of his room. Her long black hair bouncing behind her. 'Oh you are in sooooo much trouble, cousin… hehehe. I told you to stay away from Kinomoto, but you didn't want to listen to me.. So I just had to call your mother… she'll set you straight… Poor Li….'

Syaoran finished dressing and grabbed his book bag and his duffle bag. He stuffed his soccer uniform in there, along with a change of clothes. Only in town for a few days and he already made the soccer team. He was happy and now tonight he would meet with Sakura and her friends, and they would take him out and show him the ropes. For the past three days he has taken Thristin's advice and stopped talking to Tobe about Sakura.

"He'll take what ever you say to him to Junia. That could be the difference to whether Sakura gets the leadership spot…"

Syaoran walked down the stairs and into the sitting room. He dropped his bags on one of the chairs, and headed into the kitchen. He managed to get his mother to agree that Meilin, Eriol, and himself could pick out an apartment for themselves… but she wouldn't allow him to live on his own… yet…

Walking into the kitchen he saw his mother's face. She wasn't pleased. Her dark eyes glared at him, while her lips tightened.

"You will never be head of the clan if you follow the path you are on, boy. Sit. We need to speak."

"I don't have a lot of time.. I have to be at school in twenty minutes," he said sitting across from her. "What path are you talking about?"

"This girl Meilin told me about, is trouble. She is no good for my only son to hang out with. Not only is she the one who took the Clow Cards from you, now she's trying to turn you into a Goth? Do her parents not care about her? You will not see nor speak to this girl again Syaoran, do you understand me?"

"Mother, you know Meilin is a drama queen. She doesn't know what she's talking about. Sakura is a great person, and she's not trouble. She gets good grades, and use to be the head cheerleader. She stopped because her grades were dropping." He said, rubbing his temples, a headache was starting to form. "Meilin was trying to get us together anyway."
"She what?" Yelan did not seem pleased by this.

"I have to go, Mother. I have school, and wont be back until late tonight. When are you returning to China?" Syaoran stood up from his chair

"Tomorrow morning. I want to have dinner with you and this girl. Tonight. No excuses, Syaoran. Have a nice day at school."

Syaoran nodded and walked out of the kitchen into the sitting room, to see Meilin. He grinned and grabbed his bags. Meilin looked at him and frowned. She took her backpack and followed him out to his car.

"If my mother wasn't inside, you would walk to school… Oh and you get home before I do, don't you?" He asked as he dropped into the drivers seat of his Saturn SKY.

"Yes, why?" She asked tossing her backpack into the back seat.

"Well lets just say you owe me, and you will clean the apartment." He said and started the car with a grin.

Sakura walked from her house to the school, listening to her mp3 player. Happiness filled her, Syaoran was back and he didn't hate her.. He wanted to hang out with her, be with her.. Maybe she would ask him today if they would ever hook up. She hopped off the curb, causing her hair to fall over her face. She brushed her hand across her face to rid her vision of the darkness. Her emerald eyes widened as she saw a black Eclipse came into sight.

Sometimes life seems too quiet
Into paralyzing silence
Like the moonless dark
Meant to make me strong

Familiar breath of my old lies
Changed the color in my eyes
Soon he will perforate the fabric of the peaceful by and by

Sorrow lasts through this night
I'll take this piece of you
And hold for all eternity
For just one second I felt whole
As you flew right through me

Left alone with only reflections of the memory
To face the ugly girl
That's smothering me
Sitting closer than my pain
He knew each tear before it came
Soon he will perforate the fabric of the peaceful by and by

I'll take this piece of you
And hold for all eternity
For just one second I felt whole
As you flew right through me

And we kiss each other one more time
And sing this lie that's halfway mine
The sword is slicing through the question
So I won't be fooled by his angel light

Sorrow lasts through this night
I'll take this piece of you
And hold for all eternity
For just one second I felt whole
As you flew right through me
And up into the stars

Joy will come

Sometimes life seems too quiet
Into paralyzing silence
Like the moonless dark
Meant to make me strong

AN: hehe another cliffy. Let me know what you think… The song is Sorrow By Flyleaf.
