~~Chapter 9~~

~~Later that day~~

"What time is it Tomoyo-chan?" Sakura asked.

"Umm…it's almost 7 o'clock." Tomoyo replied.

"Hoe! I have to go home. It's my turn to cook dinner tonight!" Sakura jumped up and gathered all her stuff.

"Aww…we were just getting to the nice dresses!" Meiling moaned.

"It's okay, we can finish another day!" Tomoyo said.

"See you guys tomorrow at school! Bye Syaoran!" Sakura waved and left the room.

"I should go too." Syaoran got up. 'I have a weird feeling…I should take walk her home just to be safe.'

"Okay Li-kun…I know you want to keep Sakura safe." Tomoyo grinned at Syaoran and he blushed. "Ja ne."

"Ja Syaoran!" Meiling yelled.

"Ja Meiling, Tomoyo." Syaoran ran outside to catch up with Sakura.

"Sakura! Wait for me!"

"Hoe? Syaoran?"

"Hai, can I walk you home?"

"Of course Syaoran, I'd love it if you would."

"The pleasure is all mine." Syaoran took Sakura's hand and held it for the entire walk to her house.

~~At Sakura's Front Door~~

"Do you want to come in Syaoran?" Sakura asked sweetly.

"Iie…it's okay, maybe some other day. We have a lot of homework to do anyway."

"Hai…so I'll see you tomorrow?"

"Okay, I love you Sakura." Syaoran gave her a kiss on the cheek.

"I love you too Syaoran." Sakura said while blushing.

Syaoran waved goodbye while Sakura waved back at him. Then he walked toward his house, still having a strange feeling like something was going to happen.

As Sakura started up the stairs to her room, the doorbell rang. 'Hm…did Syaoran forget to tell me something?' She went back downstairs with a big smile on her face. She opened the door and said "Syaoran!" But once she looked up at the person, it wasn't her beloved. "Hoe?"

"Hello there, Sakura-chan. My name is Eriol Hiragizawa. How are you?"

"Um…hi Hiragizawa-kun…how do you know my name?"

"You can call me Eriol. It's a long story. May I come in?"

"Okay."

Sakura and Eriol walk to the living room and sat down.

"Would you like something to drink?"

"It's okay. Is your father around?"

"Uh…let me check." Sakura got up and went upstairs to see.

A minute after she left Kero came downstairs.

"I hope there's pudding in the fridge." He said as he flew towards the kitchen but feels a familiar aura. 'Clow's aura?' He thought to himself. 'No way it couldn't be…he's gone…' He peeked into the living room and saw Eriol.

Eriol looked up because he felt a familiar aura too. "No use peeking around Kero-chan."

"How do you know me? Who are you?" Kero demanded as he flew out.

"I am the reincarnation of Clow Reed. It's been a long time Keroberos."

"R-reincarnation? No way. Sakura's dad is the reincarnation."

"Me and him are each a half. We both make him up together."

"Hm…that is very interesting. So, what brings you here?"

"I'm just visiting to see how everything is going. Spending so much time in England is kinda boring."

"Oh I see…by any chance, do you have any pudding?" Kero drooled.

"Uh…no I don't…" Eriol sweatdropped.

"That's okay…I'll go check the fridge. See ya!" Kero flew away.

Sakura came down the stairs with Fujitaka. When Eriol saw them, he stood up and smiled.

"Eriol-san! Long time no see! How are you?" Fujitaka asked.

"I am okay, and you?"

"Things are good. What brings you to Japan?"

"I just came to see how my other half is doing."

"How long will you be staying?"

"Oh, I don't know. Maybe I'll attend school here for fun."

"That's a great idea! I'm sure you'd fit right in with Sakura and her friends."

Sakura stood there not knowing what to do since she didn't know what they were talking about.

'Other half? What could that mean?'

"Oh, I forgot. Sakura, this is Eriol-san."

"Yes, we have met when she opened the door for me." Eriol took out his hand and shook Sakura's.

"Nice to meet you, Eriol-kun. Will you be coming to my school? It will be so much fun! You can meet Syaoran-kun, Tomoyo-chan, Meiling-chan, and the others too!"

"Tomoyo-chan? She sounds nice. Will you introduce me to her?"

"Of course! Do you want to go to her house? Can we otou-san?"

"Sure Sakura, make sure you come home for dinner okay?"

"Arigatou!" Sakura smiled.

~~Outside~~

"So, Eriol-kun, are you going to be staying at our house?" Sakura asked.

"Sure, if you and your family lets me."

"Of course! I'd be honored! Do you like video games?"

"Yeah, I'm pretty good at them, why do you ask?"

"Kero-chan has been bugging me to play with him all the time…so I was wondering if you could play with him instead…you know 'cause I'm not that good and stuff…"

"Ooh, I forgot something!" Eriol exclaimed.

"Hoe? What's wrong?"

Eriol searched in his pocket and pulled something out.

"HOEE!!"
