HellloooooooOOOOOOO !!!!! That's me again !! I'm sorry for the delay of this chapter, but...hehe...you know : school... _

So...this is chapter four. And I think it's pretty boring, since there is no action. But of course, this is my own point of view.

Oh yeah...I put the dreams in italics, since I thought it could be confusing when I read it again. (And...by the way...I hope you will understand the whole chapter, since I know that when I write in English, it may be confusing...SOWWWYYY !!!!!!!!!!)

...and THANKS TO THE ONES WHO REVIEWED !!!! ^_^ This makes me think my story is interesting.

Thanks to Paggy-chan (again:)) and Syaoran RULES

Hehe...I made Yamazaki-kun die because I needed someone to die, and it could not be the heroes YET. But I don't know if the story will have a happy or a sad end. *Ahem* It will depend...hehe. If I'm in a good mood, it'll be a happy end, and if I'm sad when I write the last chapter, then... I don't know..... :)

BUT !! I'm just at the begginning of the fic, so...I'll think about the last chapter later on. :)

And...OH YES !! I made a mistake in the FIRST chapter !! (But no one told me about this, so I don't think it was a problem for you...^_^)-----I told you that my story took place at the end of the series, before Eriol left...and yet, I said that the heroes were 14...SO let's say that Sakura was VERY slow transforming Clow cards into Sakura cards, and that Eriol thought she was not strong enough to pass his test yet, so he stayed in Japan for a few more years. And let's also say that Syaoran stayed with Sakura for a reason we ALL know, and that him mom just said...yes.

Reader : "...but this is stupid!!"

Chapter 4 : "Nightmares"

Sakura led Syaoran to his room, and when they opened the door, they found Eriol packing Yamazaki's things. When he saw them, he stopped what he was doing, and bowed his head.

-"...I think Yamazaki's parents will want to get this back...so I was cleaning up a bit..."

Nobody was able to utter a word as they felt hot tears coming back to their eyes. Sakura wiped them away, and helped Syaoran to his bed.

Eriol looked at Sakura and Syaoran, and put down the things he had in his hands.

-"Hey...what's wrong?" he asked Syaoran. The young chestnut haired boy got onto his bed, too tired to even change into his pajamas, and answered Eriol, his eyes closed.

-"Umh....no-nothing." Sakura covered him up, and Tomoyo went to the bathroom to get a wet cloth that Sakura put on Syaoran's forehead.

-"Nothing's wrong, Eriol-kun. Syaoran is sick, because he stayed too long beside...Yamazaki, under the rain." when Sakura pronounced Yamazaki's name, she felt like crying again. She was a very sensitive person, and losing one of her friends was a terrible thing to her, even if she wasn't that close to Yamazaki. She took a chair and sat down next to Syaoran's bed.

-"So...how are you feeling?" Syaoran opened his eyes to look up at Sakura.

-"...fine." He said, then started coughing, which made Sakura frown.

-"Yeah...of course you're okay." she said, replacing the damp cloth on his forehead, which made the boy moan and shiver at the coldness of the wet thing.

-"Are you cold, Syaoran? Do you need anything?"

-"....n-no...I'm okay..." Sakura stood up anyway, opened a cupboard, and gave the boy another cover.

-"Here. Keep warm or you won't get any better soon." Syaoran blushed seeing Sakura taking care of him. Sakura saw this and, as clueless as ever, took it as another sign of his sickness.

-"Syaoran-kun? Are you sure you're okay?" He quickly turned his head away, so that she couldn't see him blushing even more.

-"Ye-yeah...I'm fine."

After a few minutes of waiting in a corner of the room, Tomoyo headed to the door.

-"Sakura? I'm going to bed, are you coming, too?" Sakura turned her head to her friend, then back at Syaoran, and looked at him with worried eyes.

-"No...I'm going to stay here and take care of Syaoran...if...if that's okay with him, of course..."

-"...er...of course..." answered Syaoran, still blushing. Tomoyo smiled sadly and turned around to leave the room. In fact, she wasn't pleased to come back to her room alone, with the painful memories of Yamazaki.

Eriol saw this.

-"Tomoyo...I can come with you, if you want..." the young girl looked at Eriol with disbelief. The boy just smiled. "Sakura can sleep here, since there are...two beds free... . And I can sleep in your room..." Tomoyo smiled.

-"Thanks, Eriol-kun." Eriol took a few things with him and left the room with Tomoyo.

-"Good night, you two."

-"Good night."

*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*

Once Tomoyo and Eriol left, the room was silent. Sakura had her head bowed, for she didn't know what to say. She looked at the room slowly, and her eyes fell on Yamazaki's bear, which was laying on the floor among the rest of his things. Sakura remembered the day Chiharu had given the bear to her boyfriend. Yamazaki had named it 'Biscuit', because he didn't know he was supposed to name it after Chiharu. (A/N: I'm not sure if the bear's name is actually 'Biscuit' in the japanese manga, but in the french version, that's its name.) Sakura smiled sadly at the thought.

-"Why are you smiling?" came Syaoran's weak voice behind her.

-"I'm remembering...how 'special' Yamazaki was..." she said, still smiling. Syaoran looked at her, and smiled a bit too, remembering his now lost friend.

-"Yeah...who's gonna tell us stupid lies now that he's gone?" Sakura giggled, closed her eyes and made a serious face. "Hey !! Do you know that eating vanilla ice cream can make you transform into a frog?" she said, trying to sound like Yamazaki.

The two laughed at this, and when Sakura stopped, she looked back at the little stuffed animal. "We're all gonna miss him a lot..." She got up, and took the toy in her hands. "I think Chiharu should take that back..." Sakura then sat down on a bed and stared at the bear. "Poor Chiharu...I hope she's okay...Can you imagine? She just lost the love of her life..." she said. Syaoran widened his eyes looking at the young girl. 'The love of her life...I don't know what I would do if you were not by my side anymore...Sakura.'

-"Huh? Syaoran? Is there anything wrong? Do I have something on my face?"

-"....er...nothing's wrong." Sakura got up and left the toy behind her. Before sitting back on her chair, she grabbed a pillow and put it behind her back. Syaoran turned his head to her, and frowned.

-"What are you doing?" he asked.

-"Hey, I'm tired, too!! I'm going to sleep a bit."

-"On that chair??" he tried to sit up in his bed, but broke into another painful coughing fit. Sakura got up to help him.

-"Hey...thay's okay...It won't be the firt time I sleep on a chair, you know..." Syaoran frowned at that.

-"No way !! *cough* I won't let you sleep on a chair!!! *cough* "

-"But it I go to sleep on a bed, then I won't be able to stay by your side, and- " She stopped, and her face lit up. She crossed the room.

-"What?"

-"I got an idea." Then she pushed the fourth bed-the one that wasn't Yamazaki's- next to Syaoran's, and jumped on it.

-"What are you doing??"

-"I'm going to sleep here!!" she smiled, and covered herself up, not caring to change either." Do you mind?"

-"er...no, its o-okay...I guess..." He blushed deep red seeing that the girl he loved secretly was going to sleep next to him.

-"Sleep well. I'm staying by your side."

And suddenly realizing how tired he was, Syaoran closed his eyes still watching the girl in front of him, and quickly drifted into sleep.

Syaoran's dream

~~ Syaoran found himself sitting on his chair, at school. The door opened, and Sakura walked in, cheerful as usual, came up to Syaoran, and smiled at him.

-"Syaoran-chan!! I LOVE YOU !!!!"

And she kissed him on the lips.~~

(A/N: I was told once that what we wanted the more to happen could actually happen in dreams, so I guess this is what Syaoran could dream of...^_^)

When Sakura saw that her friend was asleep, she leaned back onto her pillow, and stared at the young boy. Syaoran was smiling in his sleep by now. 'He must be dreaming...'Sakura thought. She was laying on her bed, when she decided to sleep too. Under her covers, she thought back of what had happened today, and allowed herself to cry again. She felt her tears rolling down her cheeks for long minutes, before realizing that she was not the only one crying in the room. She tried to stop crying so that she could hear clearly.

'...oh no...not again...'

Sakura opened her eyes, and saw the young girl in front of her once again.

Sakura did not move, now that she knew that the girl was actually a ghost.

The girl slowly stoped crying, got up, and stood by Syaoran's side. Then, she looked at him, concentrated and closed her eyes.

Syaoran's dream

~~'? Where am I? ...Sakura??' Syaoran looked around him, but all he could see was darkness. Not knowing what to do, he started walking, and soon he saw the same dim light that Sakura had seen earlier in her own dream. (A/N: Er...but of course Syaoran doesn't know that, since Sakura didn't tell him about her dream. Hehe...)

~If I can't love...~

Suddenly, a bright light covered everything, and in front of him, Syaoran saw a young fair haired girl, with grey eyes. She looked at him and started crying.

-"...who are you?" The woman didn't answer, and Syaoran approched her.

-"Hey...what's wrong?"

Darkness covered up everything again.~~

Sakura was watching silently the girl in front of her, still unable to move. 'What...what is she doing?' Since the woman had started to concentrate, Sakura had noticed that Syaoran was not smiling in his sleep anymore. Actually, he was clenching his pillow, and trembling. 'He's having a nightmare...is that...because of her?'

After long minutes, the young woman opened her eyes again. She gave a last look at Syaoran, and she slowly disapeared.

'Where is she?' Once she was sure the girl was not here anymore, Sakura pushed herself out of her bed, and looked at her friend next to her.

Syaoran's dream

~~

~...then no one will...~

-"What?" Syaoran looked around him again. He was not in the dark anymore. He was...in the house where his whole class was staying at.

'This room...'

"Can't you knock before entering a room?"

In front of him were Chiharu and Yamazaki, in the girl's room. Chiharu was patting her boyfriend on the cheek.

"Bad boy..."

'Yamazaki...' Then he saw Yamazaki kissing Chiharu on the cheek.

~....NO ONE WILL !!!!~

Syaoran turned his head to where he thought he had heard the voice, but saw nobody.

And suddenly he was not in the room anymore, but...in the woods...

'This woods...' Syaoran stepped back. 'It's...the place where-..."

He was in the exact place where Yamazaki had died.

And he was standing next to the black haired boy, who was...alive. 'Yamazaki?'

But the boy did not seem to hear his friend. He seemed to be scared, and was looking worriedly around him, like if he didn't know where he was.

'Yamazaki !! Can you hear me?'

-"........."

Syaoran widened his eyes. 'He can't see me...'

Then Yamazaki's expression changed from worry to fright. Syaoran saw that in front of his friend was standing the same sad girl he had seen earlier.

She lifted her head to look at Yamazaki, and frowned.

She closed her eyes, lifted up a hand, and pieces of wood rose in the air, as if obeying her silent command.

'WHAT?'

Then, they all aimed at Yamazaki.

And Syaoran understood. 'He can't see me...because I'm not here...what I am seeing is...the way he died.'

'YAMAZAKI !!!! NOOOOOOOOO !!!!!!' Syaoran fell to his knees, and closed his eyes, for he didn't want to see the boy die again. ~~

-".....n-noooo....."

-"Syaoran-kun !! WAKE UP !!" Sakura was shaking him, asking him to open his eyes, but the boy kept them tightly closed, shivering. Sakura grew more worried, and shook him even harder.

-"SYAORAN !! " And then her efforts were successful, she saw his eyelids open slowly.

-"......unn...sa-sakura?"

-"Syaoran? You're awake?" She laid him back on his bed, and reassured him.

-"Hey...you were having a nightmare..." She looked at him with worried eyes.

-"......a ...nightmare..." He tried to get his vision less blurry, and remembered his 'dream'.

-"Yeah...how are you feeling?"

-".......unn...I...I saw it all....sh-she k-killed him..."

-"What? Syaoran-kun, are you listenning to me?"

Sakura waited for an answer from him, but her friend just kept his eyes half closed, looking to nothing in particular. Sakura stared at him with worried eyes as she wet the cloth in a bowl and replaced it on the sick boy's forehead again.

'He's getting worse...' Then she waved her hand in front of his eyes to make sure he wasn't sleeping again. When she saw his eyes following the movement of her fingers, she got up from her bed and leaved Syaoran's side.

-"Don't worry Syaoran, I'm coming back soon." And she ran in the halls to look for miss Mizuki.

^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*

Sakura knocked on her teacher's room, and waited for an answer.

-"Yes? Come in." Sakura opened the door and entered the room. The young woman was speaking with the owner of the house they were staying in. Sakura waited in a corner of the room for the conversation to finish. When the old lady left miss Mizuki's room, Sakura approched her teacher.

-"Miss Mizuki?"

-"Yes, Sakura? Is there anything wrong?"

-"Err...well...Syaoran is sick, and I...don't know what to do..." She said, bowing her head. The young teacher got up from her chair, and smiled at Sakura. "Hey...don't worry, I'm going to help you."

*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*

Syaoran was still in his bed, staring at the ceiling and trying to make his thoughts clear.

'...that girl...she killed him......but why?...' He winced as he felt a wave of pain in his head. 'unnn....that hurts...' Then he remembered the face of the girl.'....who's she?' He stared and stared again, feeling that turning his head, even just a little bit, would hurt him even more.

The door opened.

Syaoran heard footsteps next to him, that echoed through his head, intensifying his already pounding headache.

-"Li-san? Are you okay?" He squinted his eyes, trying to make the pain go away. 'Miss Mizuki?' he thought, hearing his sensei's soft voice.

He then felt the cloth he had on his forehead being removed, and then a hand feeling his temperature.

Miss Mizuki frowned, and sat on Syaoran's bed. Then she looked at Sakura and smiled.

-"Where are going back to Tomoeda this afternoon, Sakura. Because of Yamazaki's death, the trip is canceled. So when we'll be back, we'll bring Syaoran to a doctor ans he will get better, okay? Don't worry." She got up to leave the room. "I'm going to get some medicine downstairs. I'll be back soon, okay?"

-"Okay."

Sakura sat on Syaoran's bed as her teacher left the room. The young boy opened his eyes, and Sakura smiled at him.

-"Sakura..."

-"Yes?"

-"Sakura...I...had a strange dream..."

-"What was it about?"

-"I saw Yamazaki dying......and...who killed him...." Sakura looked at her friend and frowned.

-"Syaoran...who...who killed him?"

-"It's a strange girl...with grey eyes......sad grey eyes..."

Sakura widened her eyes as she listenned to him. 'grey eyes?'

-"...she made the piece of wood rise in the air and...kill Yamazaki." Sakura looked at him, obviously worried.

-"...she killed him..." Sakura took Syaoran's hand and squeezed it. 'He dreamt of the ghost? No...it must be a coincidence...' She bowed her head, deep in thought. 'Maybe he was not completly asleep...maybe he actually saw her...' She came out of her reverie and saw that Syaoran was staring at her while they were holding hands.

-"Syaoran...what did this girl look like?"

-"...she was blond...and dressed in white...I don't remember very well..."

-"Did she tell anything to you?"

-"No...she was crying...and I couldn't speak to her..." Sakura widened her eyes even more hearing this. 'But...he was sleeping when she appeared...'

-"Syaoran."

-"...what?"

-"The girl I saw in my room...the first night we slept here...she was...exactly like the girl you are describing..."

-"............????"

-"...blond hair, grey eyes...and...she was crying...maybe...maybe I saw the girl that was in your dream..."

-"...how come?"

-"I don't know, but...she came here again, while you were sleeping, and I think that it's when she came to stand next to you that you started having this nightmare..."

-"...what?" The young boy struggled to sit up in his bed.

-"Do you mean that- *cough* ...that she could have made me dream this?"

-"...I'm not sure...but last night, I dreamt of her, too. And when I woke up, she was right in front of me."

-"You dreamt of her?"

-"Yeah...I wanted to tell you after the walk in the woods, but...but..."

The two remained silent as they thought back of Yamazaki.

-"...I think that when she's near, she can make us dream of what she wants."

-"...but why?" Sakura frowned.

-"I don't know."

They heard the door being opened, and miss Mizuki entered the room again.

She came up to Syaoran's side with a glass in her hands, and gave it to him.

-"Here. Drink this. It will make you feel sleepy, but you'll feel better when you wake up."

*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*

Sakura was heading to her room to talk to Tomoyo. She had left Syaoran when he had fallen asleep because of miss Mizuki's medicine, and had decided to tell her best friend about the events of the night.

When she opened the door, she found Tomoyo talking with Eriol. The young man was smiling, and obviously trying to cheer up Tomoyo.

-"Hey...good morning, Sakura."

-"Good morning Tomoyo-chan, Eriol-kun." She approched the two, and tried to smile a bit.

-"...Tomoyo-chan? Can I have a talk with you?"

Tomoyo looked at her best friend, then at Eriol, and smiled.

-"Of course, Sakura-chan."

-"...alone."

Eriol stood up, STILL smiling, and leaved the room.

Sakura sat down on her bed.

-"So...how was your night, Tomoyo?"

-"Er...fine, Eriol stayed with me, and we talked, he tried to make me forget about Yamazaki's death."

-"Okay...where's Rika-chan?"

-"Oh...she was pretty sad yesterday, so she stayed with Terada sensei."

Sakura bowed her head, and finally spoke up.

-"Tomoyo...do you remember when I told you I had seen a ghost in our room?" Tomoyo frowned and sighed when Sakura started talking about that.

-"Sakura...I don't think tha-" Sakura grabbed her friend's arm firmly.

-"Tomoyo, listen to me please. I saw her again. And Syaoran dreamt about her."

-"......"

-"We both dreamt about her, you can't deny that I'm not hallucinating."

-"Sakura, now YOU listen to me." Tomoyo released herself from Sakura's grip, and looked straightly at her.

-"Okay, I was sleeping when you first saw her, so I have no proof that you're wrong. But what I know is that you were alone, in the dark, scared, and trying to sleep. You were probably very tired, so maybe you saw her because of lack of sleep, because you are so afraid of ghosts that...maybe you just imagined it all, and..."

-"NO !! I was not dreaming, Tomoyo. I saw her in my sleep last night, and Syaoran dreamt of her, too !!!"

-"Come on, Sakura, OF COURSE you dreamt of her !! You were scared and frustrated because we didn't believe you, you were obsessed with that, so you dreamt of her !! And I'm sure you told Syaoran about this, didn't you?"

Sakura nodded.

-"So if he believed you, he was probably thinking of that ghost when...Yamazaki got killed. He had that girl in mind when he caught his fever, and...miss Mizuki told us that Syaoran was very sick now, so..."

-"...so what?"

-"So he was probably...just...delirious, and...that made him dream of her."

Sakura glared at her best friend, almost disapointed that she didn't trust her.

-"Okay, Tomoyo. If you don't believe me, that's okay."

Sakura closed her eyes, and walked away.

'What if Syaoran was right? Maybe that girl actually killed Yamazaki...' she wondered, as she bumped into someone in the corridor.

-"Sakura?" The young girl looked up to see that mister Terada was in front of her, with Rika by his side.

-"Sakura...did miss Mizuki tell you that we were going to leave this afternoon?"

She nodded.

-"Yes...I'm...going to pack my things, sensei."
