Hi! This is my first fan fic. The plot is simple. Li Syaoran never returned to Japan and Sakura has spent 10 years waiting for him.
Read and tell me what you think.

Finding Him
Part one
Sakura missed him terribly. It's been 10 years since he had left. She didn't know if he still loved her or if he had moved on with his life. Sakura sighed. She had finished college and was working as an archaeologist professor, like her father. Yukito-san and her Onii-chan were both teachers at her old high school. Onii-chan had found a woman he loved and got married while Yukito-san remained single. Otou-san was retired and was living with Onii-chan, his wife Megumi, and their son Shou.
Sakura looked around her apartment and saw all of the pictures of her old school friends. Tomoyo-chan had taken over her mother's toy business and had started a clothing line that Sakura was forced to be a model for during her college years. After college, Sakura insisted that she stop modeling and find a more stable career. Chiharu-chan and Yamazaki-kun got married and were currently on their honeymoon. Rika-chan was seeing Terada-sensei and they had been going steady for two years. Naoko-chan had become a very successful wither. As for Li-kun… Sakura didn't know what Li-kun was doing, whether he was married or no, and whether he still remembered her or not.
Her eyes fell on the teddy bear.
Syaoran…
When she saw it, she remembered all of the battles she had been through and how he had always been there to protect her. Silent tears fell from her face as she hugged the teddy bear.
Kero watched Sakura with a frown on his face. 'She had been like this since that Gaki left,' Kero thought. 'Its been a while since I saw Sakura smile.' He shook his head sorrowfully and left Sakura alone.

"Professor Kinomoto! Kinomoto-sensei!"
Sakura turned around and saw one of her students running towards her. "Hello, was there something you needed?"
"Actually I was wondering if you are doing anything this summer because I'm going on a school trip with my little sister and she said they needed one more supervisor so they can go." Sakura nodded, indicating that she was listening. Her student continued. "Umm. I was wondering if you would go with us as our last supervisor."
Sakura thought for a while. "Where is the trip?" Sakura asked.
"We haven't decided yet because the trip is student organized and we can pick where we want to go if we get four supervisors."
"Well it would be fun and it's been a while since I've gone on a vacation. Okay, I'll be a supervisor."
"Great! On Monday there's a meeting for the trip. It's at 4 o'clock at the auditorium in the high school. See ya later Kinomoto-sensei!"
Sakura smiled.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sakura walked into the room. Inside she saw a group of kids whose age ranged from 13-18. "Yay!" someone cried. "Kinomoto-sensei is here! We can start our meeting now."
Sakura smiled and walked over to the group. She joined them and heard someone say, "Hmm, typical. She's late again like always. You never change kaijuu."
Sakura turned to face the speaker. *sweat drop* "Onii-chan…"
Kinomoto Touya stood in front of Sakura with Megumi on his left holding Shou and Yukito-san on his right. Touya said, "Is there any reason to why you are late? Were you talking to you stuffed animal again, kaijuu?"
Sakura felt a twinge of anger when she heard her old name. "Sakura kaijuu ja ni mo! And I was not speaking to any stuffed animals!" She then proceeded in stepping on her brother's foot.
A contorted expression appeared on Touya's face. Yukito-san was laughing quieting along with Megumi. "It's been a while since we've seen you do that Sakura," Yukito said. "It's also been a while since we've heard Touya call you kaijuu too." Sakura felt herself blush because she was acting so childish. She look at the students who were now giving the adults funny looks because it amazed them that adults could act like that. One of the students cleared his throat and said, "While you guys were having that err… family squabble, we decided where we would like to go for our trip."
Megumi opened her mouth and asked, "Where do you want to go?"
Another student stepped forward and said, "We would like to go to Hong Kong."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A shiver ran down Sakura' spine. "Hong… Hong Kong?" Sakura asked.
One of the students nodded her head. "Umm, we want to go to Hong Kong for a few days than we would like to go to China. We think it will be lots of fun."
"Are you sure you want to go to Hong Kong? Why not Australia or England? I'm sure those would be fun too."
The students shook their heads. Sakura sighed and said, "I'm not sure that I can go with you to Hong Kong." Everyone looked shocked. "Why not Kinomoto- sensei?"
Sakura franticly thought of a proper excuse. "Umm. I've already been to Hong Kong. What's the point of going again?"
Yukito spoke up and said, "We've also been to Hong Kong before. You should come. It will be fun because we'll get to see more site and the food is good there too." *Everyone sweat drop*
The youngest girl, who was around 13, walked up to Sakura. She pouted and spoke, "Please Kinomoto-san, you must come with us. We have been waiting so long to go." The girl blinked and tears swelled in her eyes as her puppy face became more pathetic, "And, we can't go if you don't go. Please come with us. I've been waiting sooooo long to go and we can make it lots of fun for you."
Sakura sighed as she looked at the young girl's face. Sakura knew she couldn't resist so after a moments thought, Sakura sighed, "Fine, I'll go."
A cheer erupted and the young girl returned to her friends. Touya heard the teenagers congratulated the girl, Yuki. "Good job Yuki. You have the best puppy face I've seen."
Another child asked, "I wonder why Kinomoto-san does not want to go to Hong Kong?" The other kids nodded in agreement. Touya was wondering the same thing.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sakura silently closed her suitcase. She could not believe that she actually agreed to go on this trip with her onii-chan and his wife and with Yukito-san.
A shrill noise filled the room suddenly. Sakura picked up her phone. "Moshi Moshi?"
"Ohaiyo Sakura-chan!"
"Tomoyo-chan! Why are you calling me? How are things? Did you fashion show go smoothly?"
Tomoyo laughed from the sudden bombardment of questions. "I'm calling you because you're my best friend. Things are going fine and my fashion show was ok but it would have been better if you were here to model some outfits I designed especially for you. Some of the models just can make those costumes looked good like you can." Tomoyo heaved a great sigh and continue. "Anyway, I heard from Yukito-san that you are going to Hong Kong this week. I was surprised because of…" Tomoyo's voice slowly trailed off. It was Sakura's turn to sigh.
"Yes Tomoyo, I know what you mean. I couldn't believe it when I agreed but I can't let these kids down and what's the chance I'll see him this time?"
Tomoyo said, "You never know Sakura. Be careful and have some fun. Relax. It's high time you had some fun. Take advantage of this and finally get a chance to take it easy." Some shouting could be heard in the back ground and Tomoyo said, "Listen Sakura, I've got to go. My mom needs me in a meeting. I'll see you when you come back to Japan ok? Sayonara!"
"Sayonara Tomoyo-chan." Sakura hung up the telephone as she replayed the conversation over in her head. "Anyway, I heard from Yukito-san that you are going to Hong Kong this week. I was surprised because of…"
"Syaoran," Sakura sighed.
