***Disclaimer: I don't own Cardcaptor Sakura or the characters... Konnichiwa minna-san! I finally wrote the last chapter! I'm sorry it took so long to write this chapter it's just that I've been so busy with school and karate and given the fact that FanFiction.net was down, so I didn't get any time to write. But I promise to have another Cardcaptor Sakura fic out soon! Enjoy and please review!
Chapter Six
Once they got to the school they walked down to the gymnasium. Rainbow-colored streamers were draped from the ceiling and balloons shaped as hearts floated through the air. Music blasted out of the speakers and people danced to the rhythm. It was like a prom from a movie or something. Sakura and Tomoyo walked to a table and took off their coats. They both sat down and Sakura looked for Li. But she couldn't find him.
"Do you see Li anywhere?" Sakura asked, scanning the crowd of people.
"No," Tomoyo replied, and shrugged. "Maybe he's in the bathroom or something … Calm down, Sakura, he'll be here."
"I hope you're right," she said with a sigh.
Tomoyo placed her hand on Sakura's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I am. I'm always right about these things."
Sakura nodded and locked her eyes on the gym's entrance. She wished he would come through that door and then they would dance the night away. But he never came through the door. It was as if she was wishing a useless wish.
"Tomoyo," a boy said, "will you dance with me?"
She looked at Sakura as if she was asking permission. Sakura nodded. "Go, Tomoyo. Go dance."
"Okay, Sakura," she said, and stood up. "Are you sure it's okay?"
"Yes, of course," she replied. "Go on, have some fun."
Tomoyo nodded and went with him onto the dance floor. Sakura's smile faded away and so did her happiness. Why did she actually think he would be here? Why did she let herself believe that he wanted to date her? Why did she actually think he liked her?
"How could I be so stupid?" she asked herself, as she watched the door. She put her face in her hands and let the tears slowly fall from her eyes. She wanted to go home. She didn't know why she even came. She hated to dance and she hated being surrounded by people who were happier than she was. Would anyone notice if she stood up and left? Of course they wouldn't. They're too busy dancing in their own world.
She stood up and walked toward the door, but stopped when somebody grabbed her hand. She turned and gasped in shock. It was Li!
"Li," she murmured. "I thought you weren't coming."
"I told you I was," he replied. "Where were you going?"
"I thought you stood me up so I decided to leave," she said, and wiped her tears away. "What took you so long?"
He smiled and placed his palm on her cheek. "I was always here. You just weren't looking hard enough."
She gave him a confused look. "What do you mean?"
He took her other hand and guided her out onto the dance floor. He put his arms around her and held her close. Her heart was pounding wildly and her body was in pure bliss. She wondered if he could feel her heart or if he could feel the butterflies in her stomach.
"Li," she whispered into his ear. "I-"
"Shhh, Sakura," he said. "You don't have to tell me anything."
"But I want to tell you this," she replied, and stared deep into his eyes. "I know you were the one writing all those letters."
He grinned and brushed her hair away from her eyes. "I knew you would find out, Sakura. I've always had feelings for you, I just didn't know how to show them so I wrote it in a letter to give to you."
"Well, you could've at least told me face to face," she said. "Because I feel the same way."
He leaned in and kissed her. For that minute, it seemed as if the world revolved around them and that they were the only ones in the room. She closed her eyes and let herself get lost in his embrace.
When they broke off, it felt as if she was floating on the clouds. And really, she was. It was a free-falling feeling. Maybe it was love or maybe she was just nervous. Whatever it was, she wanted it to last forever.
"Li," she said in a soft voice.
"Yeah?" he asked.
"Promise me that it will always be like this," she replied. "Promise me that we will always be together."
"I promise," he said, and pulled her closer to him. "I promise, Sakura."
Sakura blushed and looked away. "Just think," she thought to herself, "I owe everything to a love letter."
The End
I know it's not the greatest ending, but I didn't know what else to write.
Please review!
