Chapter Three

Sakura sighed deeply as she looked around her apartment, correction, her old apartment. The once stylish and neat rooms were now stripped bare of all her belongings which were now packed into boxes that were stacked in her empty living room.

A knock sounded at the door and Sakura turned to see three removal men, "Excuse us Miss Kinomoto, we're here to pick up your things." They bowed politely as they spoke.

Sakura nodded and smiled at them, "Thank you for your help." She said sincerely. The youngest of the trio blushed deeply as Sakura left and one of his friends whacked him across the head with his newspaper.

Eriol's long fingers flew with impressive speed along his laptop's keyboard. His glasses glowed with the light of the computer screen and his face was a mask of intense concentration. A knock at the door roused him from his trance, "Enter!"

His eyes widened ever so slightly as Sakura shyly entered the room. She bowed politely and spoke quickly, "I'm going out to meet someone Eriol, I just thought I'd let you know."

Eriol turned back to the computer and nodded, "Ok Sakura, you have your phone with you if there are any problems."

Sakura nodded and turned to go, "Oh and Sakura?" Sakura turned back and Eriol smiled, "You look very alluring in that outfit."

Sakura's cheeks flared bright red and she fled from the room. Eriol smirked contentedly; she never failed to amuse him.

Sakura pulled up in front of Santino's restaurant with 5 minutes to spare and she heaved a sigh of relief, as a child she'd had a notorious reputation for being late. She smoothed down her skirt and hurried inside, spotting the person she was meeting immediately, "Tomoyo!!"

Tomoyo Daidouji's amethyst eyes widened delightedly as she beamed at her cousin, "Sakura!"

The pair embraced and sat down together at the table. A waiter appeared and they ordered swiftly, immediately chatting as soon as he was heading away.

"How are you Moyo?"

"I'm doing great Sakura; my fashion industry has really been a hit!"

Sakura laughed, "I know I've seen your designs in the catalogue!"

Tomoyo beamed, her eyes going starry as she squealed, "You'll have to model for me!"

Sakura sweat-dropped and laughed nervously, trust Tomoyo to say that.

Tomoyo suddenly turned serious, "So Sakura, what was it that was so urgent you had to call me in person?"

Sakura's hands clenched on top of her knees, "Well Moyo…" she looked down and swallowed deeply. Tomoyo stood up and placed her hands anxiously on her cousin's shoulders, "What is it Sakura?"

"W-well Touya's in hospital…" tears started to flow down her cheeks as Tomoyo gasped, "And I'm getting married."

"Married?" Tomoyo gasped, "Who to?"

"Eriol Hiiragizawa."

"YOU'RE MARRYING WHO?!" demanded a new voice from behind them.

Sakura and Tomoyo turned and gasped, standing hurriedly and tightening her hold on her cousin's arms. Tomoyo's eyes narrowed as she glared at the man standing in front of them and tightened her grip on Sakura.

Sakura's eyes were wide and her hands were trembling as she whispered, "Syaoran…"

A/N: DUN DUN DUUUN! Well there you have it, the next chapter. What's the situation between Sakura and Syaoran? How will Eriol react when he finds out about it? I'll tell you in the next chapter.

I'm really struggling for ideas and inspiration so I'm begging you to review and give me a hand pleeassse!

I'm sorry if the chapter sucked and was a bit random, I got a bit stuck on how to say what I wanted to say, sorry about that! I will get better honestly!
