Unexpected Romance
Sixth Chapter: Sakura's Depressed
In the last chapter...
She deleted the message, crying even harder now. She knows that she shouldn't do this, especially to Meiling, but she was never going to go to the back feild again. Sakura was never going to talk to an outcast again, as long as she lived. She got off her computer and flopped onto her bed, grabbing a pillow to cry on.
Sixth chapter: Sakura's Depressed
Wednesday Sakura went to school and practicly forced herself not to go meet with Meiling and the others. Instead she found Tomoyo and smiled a fake smile.
"Are you finally going to be normal?" she asked in defense of Eriol.
"Yeah." Sakura replied as they joined Naoko and Chiharu.
'This will be a very off day.' Sakura thought as they walked.

The first bell was about to ring and Sakura needed to get her books from her locker. The second she got it open someone closed it again. She glared up at who it was but then quickly forgot her books and headed to class without them. Leaving Syaoran at her locker alone. She felt the tenth set of tears in the past twenty-four hours threaten to shed and switched direction from first period to the girls restroom, where she saw Meiling. The smile on Meiling's face when she saw Sakura was what caused the tears to spill over. Ignoring Meiling, she locked herself in a stall and pulled out a bottle of pills she placed in her bag incase she needed them. Pouring five stimulants into her hand, she listened to Meiling asking her what was wrong then swallowed them. Sakura swung the stall open and ran to class, wiping her tears on her way. The bell rang the second she walked into the class and she really had no choice but to sit next to Syaoran. Since it was computers he sent her a message, though, knowing the message was from him she didn't check it. Instead she spent twenty-five minutes on photoshop. All of a sudden she felt light-headed and moved away from the desk then leaned foward.
'I feel so-' her thought was cut off as she fell to the ground, practicly unconcious.
"Call 911!" was the last thing she heard, though faintly, before passing out completely.

'Beep... beep... beep...'
Sakura awoke in a white room, her vision blurred and retarded beeping noises in her ear.
"She's awake." she made out as Tomoyo.
Sakura tried to sit up but was to weak to move.
"W-what happened?" she asked once she found her voice.
"The doctors wouldn't tell me, but by the way those Li people are acting, they know." Tomoyo replied sadly.
At the name "Li" everything flooded in her mind. The rejection, the tears, the pills, up to the worry in computers. That's when she blacked out.
"They only let me come visit you because I'm your cousin but the Li's are outside waiting." she kept going.
Sakura turned away from Tomoyo and closed her eyes again.
"Tomoyo, go home. I need to talk to the Li's." Sakura said.
"Okay." Tomoyo whispered before going out and leaving.
Almost exactly two minutes later Syaoran and Meiling walked in, causing Sakura to sit up in her hospital bed. Her eyes connected to Meiling's tearful ones and tears of her own started to blurr her vision.
"Are you crazy Sakura? Are you truly crazy?" Meiling cried as she sat on the bed with Sakura and held her hand. "The doctors said that you were on the verge of a seizure, a seizure! They pumped five Ridulin out of your stomach. Just a few more and you could of died."
Ignoring all the machines she was connected to, Sakura hugged her friend. Her true friend. The one she got to know so well and truly trusted in such a short amount of time. Meiling's arms were tight around Sakura as if she lat go that she would really have taken those few other pills and killed herself.
"I'm so sorry." Sakura whispered practicly to herself because she was so quiet. "I was so upset, I wanted to end everything. The pain and everything. I never thought about what would happen. I'm sorry."
"It'll be okay Sakura. Listen, I have to go but Syaoran promised to stay with you. It'll be okay."
They let go of eachother and Meiling left, Syaoran moving to a chair next to the bed. Sakura couldn't bring herself to look at him but instead just slid back down in her bed and fell asleep quietly. She almost felt safe as she knew he was with her.
'Almost as if he cared about me.' she thought before falling asleep.
