My Only One

Chapter Three

'I should have done this a while ago.' Sakura thought as she waiting impatiently on the other side of the phone.

- - - - In China

Yelan walked up the stairs and knocked three times on Syaoran's door.

"Yes? The door is open."

Yelan walked in and saw a depressed Syaoran staring at the ceiling. His eyes, Yelan could tell, showed that he was deeply hurt. 'It couldn't be the marriage…right?'

"A Miss Kinomoto is calling for you. She is calling from long distance, it seems."

Syaoran jumped up. "Who called?"

"A Miss Sakura Kinomoto, I believe. She is on the phone at this moment. Would you like to take the call?"

"Yes! … I mean yes, please send the phone up with Wei."

Yelan nodded and exited the room a bit suspicious. 'Why is he excited about this Sakura girl?'

"Hello?"

(In Japan…) "Yes?" Sakura was just about to hang up when Yelan came back onto the phone.

"Li will receive your call in a moment. Please hold."

"All right…"

Sakura's heart started racing. 'He's taking my call? Oh my God… why did I call?'

(In China…) Yelan walked up to Wei with the phone and set it carefully on the tray Wei was carrying up to Syaoran. "Take this to Master Syaoran quickly. It's an urgent call." Wei nodded and continued his trip, a bit more quickly.

Syaoran raced to the door when Wei knocked. "I'll take that Wei. Thank you!"

"Hello???"

A bored Sakura, throwing darts around, jumped up and knocked over her math books. (Yech…Math.) "…Helloo?"

"Sakura??"

"Syaoran??"

"…………"

"…………"

"Hi Sakura… I'm sorry I didn't call… I did try…"

"It's ok Little Wolf. I knew you've been busy… how have you been?"

"Little Wolf?"

'Sakura! You are just a Baka! Calling him by his nickname you gave to him mentally.'

"Heh heh… I meant… you didn't call!"

'Cover it up by making him feel bad. Baka, Baka, Baka!'

"I'm sorry Ying Fa. I did try. It's just that Meilin kept cutting me off."

'Ying Fa? Another Chinese term! It must be a term meaning baka, for that is what I am… wait, he tried to call? He did?!' A sudden rush of happiness went through Sakura. But it faded almost as quickly. 'Meilin? He must already be married…'

"Sakura??"

"I'm here. What does Ying Fa mean?"

Now it was Syaoran's turn to torment himself. 'Ugh Syaoran you are such an idiot! (No you aren't! You are the cutest, handsomest… hehehehehehe…sorry about interrupting.)

How could you let that slip? '

"It means Cherry Blossom. Like your name…"

"Oh! Well, I just called to see how you were…"

"Sakura? Do you think you can fly here by tomorrow? There is something special coming up tomorrow. Since vacation is about to start and all, I thought you could come…"

'What the hell are you doing Syaoran! Do you really think you can postpone your marriage? Why are you inviting her? To make her get more hurt? Wait, she wouldn't care. She'd probably love to be here. She doesn't like you, remember Syaoran?'

Syaoran sighed. He was just about to tell her to forget it but,

"Sure Syaoran! I mean, I'll have to ask my dad… but I'm sure he will let me go! With Tomoyo and Eriol of course but you wouldn't mind. Right?"

"No… of course not. I'm glad you're coming."

Sakura blushed madly, letting her blush go since he wasn't even around.

"So am I…"

'Ahhh! I didn't mean to say that! I mean I did, but not out loud! Ugh!'

"So I'll see you by tomorrow Ying Fa. You don't mind me calling you that, do you?"

The tomato-colored Sakura turned even redder, if that is possible.

"I don't mind if you let me call you Little Wolf… I'll see you tomorrow."

"I don't mind either. Have sweet dreams Ying Fa."

"You too Little Wolf... Oyasumi (Good Night, just in case if you English readers are out there.)

"Oyasumi…"

(In Japan… Mwahahahaha you thought I was going to go to Syaoran… and…

You are RIGHT! In CHINA…)

Syaoran smiled happily as he consumed all of his food. Little did he know that Meilin heard almost the whole thing when she heard Syaoran wasn't coming down for dinner.

~*A Small Flash Back*~

"Where is Syaoran, Wei?" A bit too cheerful Meilin asked.

"He isn't feeling so good. He has told me to bring up his meals."

"That's preposterous! I was with him moments ago!"

"He just doesn't feel too good Miss Meilin."

The phone rang and Yelan got up to answer it.

'Wonder who?'

Yelan stepped out of the room and headed in the direction of Syaoran's room.

'Must be some business with the elders…'

"Don't worry about bringing up the food Wei. I'll make him come down."

"Miss Meilin, he doesn't look good so I suggest you don't. If you would excuse me…"

"Fine." Meilin sneaked off a bit to listen to what the approaching Yelan had to say.

"Take this to Master Syaoran quickly. It's an urgent call." Yelan said as she carefully placed the phone on the tray.

'Hmmm it must be some annoying nobles. I'll go see Syaoran. He'll probably hang up on them if he feels so sick.'

Meilin finally made it to Syaoran's room, opening the door just a bit. She was about to speak up when she heard Syaoran say, "It means Cherry Blossom. Like your name…"

'He's speaking with Sakura?! That was the urgent call! I should've picked up that phone! Damn it!'

~*End of what I thought was going to be a small flash back*~

Since then, Meilin has been hearing everything. (Stupid eavesdropper. I hate it when people do that!)

She stormed right in after Syaoran rested on his pillow with a glazed look on his eyes. He felt better already after speaking to Sakura.

"Ying Fa huh?"

Syaoran just ignored her. 'Not now Meilin. Let me have a good moment. It's been too long.'

"I said, Ying Fa huh?"

"I heard you Meilin. Leave me alone."

"How could you be speaking to her behind my back?! We are getting married tomorrow! Or is that why you invited her over? You want her to share joy in this beautiful occasion!"

"I said Leave Me Alone Meilin."

"How clever of you! For once Sakura Kinomoto will see that my Syaoran is finally taken!"

"Get out of my room Meilin. I never gave you permission to come in here. You can take the tray while you are at it."

"I am NOT a slave Li!" Meilin yelled as she stormed out of his room and slammed the door.

Syaoran just returned to his glaze look. 'I wonder how she would look after these four years. My Ying Fa. My beautiful cherry blossom.'

Yelan entered the room silently. She looked upon Syaoran. 'He seems so happy.'

"Syaoran will you come back to your home and speak to your mother for a while?"

Syaoran snapped out of his dreams and looked at his mother.

"Yes mother." Syaoran sat up with a huge grin on his face.

'He's even smiling. He hasn't smiled for years.'

"Syaoran I need to ask you something."

"Yes mother?"

"Do you mind if I postpone the wedding till Friday. It's two days away, of course, but the wedding preparations aren't complete and I want you to have the greatest weddings of them all. Since of course, you are the heir to the great Li clan."

The news brightened up Syaoran a bit. He could speak to Sakura and break off the wedding. But he could just mess everything up with her… 'Think positive Syaoran, think positive.'

"I don't mind at all. You can delay it as long as you can."

"Two days will be enough Syaoran. I'm glad you're happy today. Maybe I shouldn't postpone the wedding. You seem happier since it is tomorrow. Am I correct?"

Syaoran frowned at what his mother said. 'The wedding? Are you kidding me? I hate this stupid arrangement.'

"It isn't the wedding. I want it canceled but the elders won't let me. I hate this whole thing."

Yelan was a bit hurt hearing this, but she wanted to know about the Sakura girl first before telling him that the wedding is for his own good.

"So who is this Sakura?"

"Just an old friend…"

"An old friend that made you smile?"

"She's really special."

"I'm sure she is. Where does she live? Did you invite her to the wedding?"

Syaoran frowned a bit once again. "She lives in Japan. She doesn't know about the wedding but she is coming tomorrow. I invited her and my other friends here."

"That's great! I will make sure I will put them in as honored guests in your wedding."

"There will be no wedding because I won't accept Meilin as my wife."

"Syaoran I'm sorry but there is nothing we can do. You must accept your fate, as the leader of the Li clan."

Yelan got up and exited his room. 'If I could change something for you Syaoran to make you happy I would. But that was my fate and it will be yours…'

- - - - In Japan

"TOMOYO YOU HAVE TO COME!"

"SAKURA YOU ARE CRAZY!"

"NO! COME ON! PLEASEEE!"

"OK! Only if you tell me what he said to you."

"I did!"

"What about the nickname he gave you? You regret to leave that information out."

"…It's Ying Fa."

"Ying Fa?"

"It means Cherry Blossom. Like my name…"

"SO KAWAII! SEE I TOLD YOU HE LIKES YOU!"

"Drop it Tomoyo. So are you coming?!"

"Yup! I wouldn't miss it for the world!"

"YAY! Wait a second."

"What?"

"I'm connecting Eriol to this line."

"WHAT?!"

'Ring, Ring'

"Hello, Hiiragizawa residence. This is Daiijun speaking. (Couldn't think of a name for Eriol's personal servant. P)"

"Hello Daiijun! It's me Sakura! May I speak to Eriol?"

"Why certainly Miss Sakura."

After a few seconds…

"Aren't you the cheerful one Sakura?" Tomoyo whispered.

"She always has been Tomoyo." Eriol answered.

"Ah! I didn't know you were on the line Eriol."

"Neither did I Tomoyo."

"Ahem! I called you know!"

"Yes you did. Hello Sakura."

"Always the gentleman." Tomoyo giggled.

"Like I was saying, I CALLED. Anyways, Eriol can you come with us to China tomorrow…"

"Well, I don't really…"

"Of course you can! You love us and can't stand it when you are away from us. Why bother to ask when I already know the answer!"

Tomoyo giggled hearing Sakura.

"All right. If you are so sure of yourself. I might as well spend the whole trip with Tomoyo because you will be all over Syaoran. I take it that is why we are going?"

Sakura and Tomoyo blushed deep red. Sakura because of what Eriol mentioned about Syaoran and Tomoyo because of the thought of spending the whole trip with Eriol.

"You've hit the jackpot Eriol."

"Thank you. What have I won?"

"A very red Sakura." Tomoyo said, giggling.

"I shall give that gift to my dear descendent."

"ErioL!" Sakura yelled as she blushed a deeper crimson.

"You ladies better go pack and get your beauty rest. I want you two to look your best. Of course Sakura, for my little descendent, and Tomoyo for me."

Eriol and Tomoyo blushed furiously now. Eriol did not mean to let that slip.

"Oh Eriol. Sounds like you have a crush on my friend Daidouji here."

"Leave him alone Sakura. You have to go prepare yourself for Syaoran. Now go on."

"Stop it! (A tomato red Sakura said) I'll see you two tomorrow. Good night!"

Sakura pretended to click and put her ear on the phone again.

"Thank you for saving me there lovely Tomoyo."

Tomoyo blushed again.

"It was no problem Eriol. Now go on to bed."

"Did you notice that Sakura is still on the line? Or else I would have been disconnected from you."

"Sakura, didn't I say for you to prepare yourself for your love?"

"Ugh! Be quiet Tomoyo! Bye you two. You better say your byes now before I cut you two off."

"I'll call you in a second Tomoyo. If you don't think it is too late…"

"I don't mind. I'll be waiting."

"HEY! YOU CAN'T HAVE A CONVERSATION WITHOUT ME!"

"I think we just did." Tomoyo said as she tried to hold her laughter.

"Blah you. Bye."

Sakura hung up her phone and ran downstairs. Touya (the second most handsomest man in CCS *-*) was almost attacked by Sakura. "Watch where you are going monster."

"I am NOT a monster!" Sakura yelled as she ran into the living room.

"Is there a problem Sakura?" Fujitaka asked.

"Dad! There you are! Dad, pleasewouldyouletmegotoChinaforvacation, TomoyoandEriolarecoming.Pleaseeeeee!

A confused look came upon Fujitaka's face. (I REMEMBERED HIS NAME! YAY!) Touya entered the room as Sakura finished.

"She wants to know if she can go to China with Tomoyo and Eriol for vacation."

"How do you know she said that?"

"That's monster language. I have to understand it to understand her."

"Quiet Touya." Sakura said as she stuck out her tongue.

"Of course you can go Sakura. You are old enough now to make those kind of decisions. Just make sure you take care of yourself." (I wish I had a father like that. Puh! If I asked to go to the CITY: NO YOU CANNOT GO! YOU ARE GOING TO GET LOST! Blahness!)

Touya grinned. "She's just going to see her gaki."

"He is not a gaki!"

"Whatever."

~*~*~*~*~

Sakura ran upstairs and began to pack her things. By eleven, she finished everything. She slipped into bed and went to her dream world.



"Sakura??"

"Syaoran??"

"Sakura, is that you?"

"Yeah I think so…"

Sakura tried to run toward the Syaoran figure. But to no avail, again she was glued to her spot. Syaoran tried the same but received the same results.

"I miss you a lot Syaoran…"

"Sakura??"

The Sakura figure started to fade away.

"I missed you a lot more than you did Sakura…"

Syaoran didn't know that Sakura heard what he said before she woke up.

~*~*~*~*~*~

Sakura jumped up and looked at her clock. It was 6:30 am. Tomoyo was sitting by her side, dozing off.

"Tomoyo?"

"Huh? What?"

Tomoyo straightened herself up. "Oh you're awake. That's a surprise. Eriol is downstairs putting everything in the limo. Our flight is going to leave in an hour. Just wanted to wake you up. But since you weren't listening, I kind of dozed off."

"I noticed. Don't worry. I'll be done in a minute."

- - - - - - - - -

As they all passed the security checks, they all sat down at their gate. "What time will we be getting there?"

Eriol look at his watch. "By lunch. Approximately 12pm."

"Good!"

"All boarding for China. All boarding for China."

Sakura felt a bit light headed hearing those words.

"Are you ok Sakura?"

"Déjà vu, I guess."

Sakura started having flash backs of when Syaoran was leaving.

"Syaoran…"



~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Wow, this is longer than my other chapters. When I am really bored, I get into my stories more I guess. It's 1:50 am. And I am extremely tired. I was going to make it another cliffhanger (Yes I am evil!) but I wasn't able to reach it. I was going to stop it earlier, but I just kept on going. Hee Hee. If there are any errors (I know there are some but I'm too tired. I'm going to post up my corrections for my other chapters and this one soon.) Take care and Review Onegai!!

A New Note: I just fixed up some things and I added one other thing. I found out what Sakura's father name was so I changed my mistake! ^-^
