"Sakura!" Li ran through the dark forest. She was standing in front of him just a moment ago. "Where are you? Come back!" he cried. Exhausted, he collapsed in a heap on the forest floor. "Sakura" he choked softly.
Bring, bring. "Huh?" Li looked over at the clock. 'Oh no' he thought and rushed up off the couch. Reaching the phone, he lifted it and almost yelled, "Hello?" His mother said from the other side, "Finally, you get up. Meilin, Tomoyo and I are leaving.
"What!" This time, he did yell. "Yep", she answered. "We are going to Honolulu! I'll call from time to time. Do take care of our guest."
As if on cue, Sakura walked in, carrying a tray of breakfast. He blushed at his outburst. In a more gentler tone, he said, "Why are you going?" His mom smiled. "You need to spend some time doing stuff other than training. Have fun." "Wait!" (click)
"Is everything okay?" Sakura asked. "Oh, uh, yes. But we won't be seeing Meilin, Tomoyo, or my mom for a while." She nodded, although puzzled. He watched her set the little coffee table.
"I'm sorry, Li. I already ate. I was just so hungry." Li shook his messy head knowingly. Instead, he asked, "Did you make this by yourself?" She nodded proudly. He looked at his plate again. A sandwich had never looked so good in his life. (munch) Or tasted so good.
Sakura watched him eat. She studied his hair. 'It looks good all messed up' she decided. Then his eyes. 'It's a nice amber brown' Then his whole face. 'He just looks great, no other word for him.'
He heard her sigh. When he glanced at her, Sakura blushed instantly and went to get him some tea. While still savoring the sandwich, he cradled his dream.
(flashback)
"I love you." He said to her. Sakura was reaching for his hand...suddenly, a flash surrounded her. When Li looked up again, she was gone! "Sakura!" He ran around the dark forest. She was there a moment ago. "Where are you? Come back!" He had collapsed on the floor and called her name one last time...
(end)
Sakura walked in with the tea. She poured him a cup. Wanting to show her how appreciative he was for the breakfast, he immediately brought the hot cup up to drink. Quickly, she stopped him by holding his hand. "Stop!" she called desperately.
Li, embarrassed, dropped his cup. "Sorry." Sakura was moving to pick up the shattered glass. He pulled her back. "Leave it to me." He reached a trembling hand down to pick up a piece. He cut his finger.
"Oh no. You should have let me do it." Sakura reached into her little pouch and pulled out a bandage. "I'll fix that." Li carefully watched her. Her eyes shone bright and crystal green. Her fingers moved rapidly. He felt his heart wrench. She was actually holding his hand and seemed to treasure it.
"There." she said later. He smiled a gentle smile that he would not give to any one else. Their eyes held. "Thank you", he murmured.
