Disclaimer: I don't own CCS



Close to confessing



"Ja!!"

I waved goobye as Tomoyo-chan's limousine. This was going to be a LONG night. Hoeeee.....I think I've said that just TOO many times. I guess it's kind of a habit of mine to be repeating stuff. So I guess you will just have to get used to me and my little annoying habits throughout my story. *^_^;;* What kind of narrator are you, Sakura-chan??Anyways.....

I stared at Tomoyo-chan's limousine 'til it was out of sight. My, Tomoyo- chan really knows how to get me into messy situations......Now it was time for ME to not let Syaoran-kun see my tomatoe face all througout the night. I stared at the nothingness while I sank in my thoughts.

What if something special happenned tonight? Between Syaoran-kun and me, that is. I mean, we're best friends and all yet, sometimes, I'd like us to be MORE than that. Hopefully, somehow, someday.....I sigued.

He already belongs to someone else. Meiling. And he seems to be happy with it. Even though, sometimes he gets annoyed when Meiling hugs him and clings onto him, demo.....who wouldn't? I believe Meiling is very pretty, she sure deserves a guy like Syaoran-kun. She's a great person also. We didn't get along when we first met, but now, we're really good friends. I actually miss her now. And everybody else does too. When she came back from Hong Kong just for a day, she was surrounded by loads of people. It was truly a shame that she didn't got to stay. I wonder why she came back for such a short time in the first place, even though it was nice having her here. She even gave me a letter with a little note, that, if it would've not been because of Syaoran-kun, I would've not understood. She's a great girl.

I frowned. It seems like I will never have a chance with Syaoran-kun. Besides, he's leaving to Hong Kong. Don't know when, but he is, soon. That made me feel like crying. Sometimes I wish I could tell him how I feel, demo, I am afraid he doesn't feel the same way about me. I am afraid we might grow apart. And I want him by my side, forever, even as my friend.

"Is there something wrong?" I see Syaoran-kun waving his hand in front of my face.

"Hoeee.....no, nothing's wrong, Zoitto Daijobu (I'm ok, it's ok)" I assure him.

"You seem to be worried about something..." He says, looking at the sky.

"The stars are beautiful, ne?" I ask, trying to move to another topic.

"Sakura-chan...." He says as he walks closer to me. We're now face to face. I can feel his breath mixing with mine. If we keep on going like this I will be fainting or drooling over him all night long. "Daijobu de su wa? (Are you ok?)" He asked, concern written all over his face. He's so nice. He's always worried about me. He's the best.

"I already told you, I'm fine." I say, as I give him a fake smile. Of course I'm not fine. I'm worried about him. About us. What if I don't see him ever again. I don't know how would I live when he leaves to Hong Kong.

"Sakura-chan, don't lie to me. What's on your mind?" You. But I can't tell you that, if I do, you might as well know that I....

"Nani??" I turned to Syaoran-kun, who's blushing furiously. "Yo-you I me- mean I....will know wh-what....?!"

My face turns red. Like a tomatoe. NO, like a ROTTEN tomatoe.

Oops.!! Did I say something WAY too loud? YOU BAKA!!! You just confessed!! I didn't mean for it to be this way, actually, I didn't WANT it to be this way. Syaoran-kun seems to be very embarrased.....gotta think of something...and FAST.

"That I'm a baka!! hehehehehehehe!!!" Hoeee....I hope he believes it. I suck at lying, and excuses. What am I going to do?! Being the klutz that I am, this will happen later on, not only once, but several times. I should've prepared a speech or something. I'm such a baka....

"You're NOt a baka, Sakura-chan..." He's not blushing anymore. "I....*Cough,cough* think that you....*ahem* are a very sweet....smart...lovable...." Syaoran-kun lowered his head. "....and kawaii....." he murmured.

Hooeee.....Did I heard that....he....ummm....*gulp* thinks I'm kawaii? WOW!! I mean...hehehehehe.....cool....I mean....hoeeee.....

I feel dizzy. Maybe....he didn't say I was kawaii, I didn't got to listen to his words very well....demo....he DID say I was sweet, smart....lovable......hooooeeee........

Kangei, tomatoe-faced Sakura. (Kangei means welcome)

I feel as if the world was spinning around. I felt dizzy, and I couldn't see straight. Was I going crazy over this guy? It was nice doing so though. It felt nice. Being in love with him. Even though.....he was out of my reach.......

"Hoeee....." I said before I fainted.

~*~*~*~*~

I slowly opened my eyes. I felt as if I had been sleeping forever. I stretched my arms and yawned.

"7:30. It's just been fifteen minutes. I think I fell asleep, or did I....?" I said, while talking to myself aloud.

"Fainted." I heard another voice from behind. I turned around and gazed at the figure in front of my eyes. My prince......

He lowered his head and blushed. "Gomen ne, I believe it is my fault...."

"Sakura-chan!!! You woke up!!!" Chibi Setsuko yelled as she ran to me and huged me. (I believe Chibi means little, if not, ermm....tell moi. ^_^;;)

"Setsuko-san.....!!" I said as I huged her back.

"You know Sakura-chan, I think you should've taken your nap before Ryoga- san and I came!! Bad, BAD Sakura-chan!!"

I giggled. "Don't worry Setsuko-san, I will NOT fall asleep again." Or at least I'll try to.....Is just SO hard to do so with Syaoran-kun around.....

I gazed around just to make sure I hadn't said anything i wasn't suppossed to say again.

"I'm glad you're doing well....." said Ryoga. He took my hand, opened it, and put a Cherry Blossom inside of it.

"Doumo arigatou." I said "I will keep this so that I will always remember you Ryoga-san."

The little boy blushed, bowed at me, and walked towards Syaoran-kun.

"Come on Syaoran-kun, Setsuko-san, let's cook something special for Sakura- chan!!" He said, grabbing both of Syaoran and Setsuko's arms. Syaoran-kun glared at Chibi Ryoga.

I giggled. Syaoran-kun doesn't really like little kids. Although I believe he would be a great- not to mention handsome- daddy. hehehehehehe.....I'm evil.

"You should errm....rest.....And, gomen ne."

"Daijobu (It's ok) I'm feeling great!!."

"Iie!! (No!) Stay there!! We will cook you something special Ying fa!!" Syaoran-kun smiled and walked away.

I felt special. Everytime he would call me Ying fa, I felt all floaty, and so.....in love......I sigued blissfully. Syaoran-kun would always smile for me. I didn't even see him smile with Meiling. Who knows, maybe......maybe I'm something special for him.....

I huged Syaoran-kun's pillow as I kept on dreaming.

"Ying fa...." I repeated to myself.

~*~*~*~ Reader's POV~*~*~*~

Tomoyo and Eriol were getting ready. Both wore black suits. Black long- sleeved shirts and black pants, black hats, you get the point.

"I feel so bad Hiiragizawa-kun..." Tomoyo said, as she picked up her purse.

"Why would such a charming young lady like you feel bad?" Eriol asked.

Tomoyo blushed slightly. "For lying to Sakura-chan......." She said as she lowered her head. "Demo.....demo...." Her lips started to tremble.

Eriol was getting worried. Was something wrong with her? "Daidoji- san.....???" He asked worriedly.

"THIS WILL BE SOOOOO KAWAII!!!!" Tomoyo squealed, with starry eyes. "Hohohohohoho......" She laugued her oh-so-typical-hohoho-I'm-so-evil- Ican't-believe-it-myself laugh.

Eriol sweatdropped as Tomoyo kept on laughing.
