Author's Note: Hi everyone! Sakura and Syaoran have met at last! For those who were waiting for that chapter, I do hope you're satisfied. Now here's Chapter 10!

Chapter 10: Doubts disappear

"Syaoran…." Sakura said.

"Sakura….." Syaoran said.

They both said it at the same time loud enough to be heard by the whole class because they were hushed at the scene before their eyes.

The teacher was also ignored at the scene, which made him annoyed. He cleared his throat to indicate the class to stop staring at the two persons.

"Ahem!" he said loud enough to interrupt his students. "Miss Kinomoto, I can see that you've already met Li, so can you seat right in front of him."

"Yes sir." She said. When she was already in front of Syaoran, she flashed him a smile, a smile, which made his knees weak enough to fall to the ground. Syaoran blushed at her smile.

"And by the way, Li I want you to guide Ms. Kinomoto around the school." The teacher added.

Syaoran just nodded her head to weak from the smile flashed to him by Sakura.

Sakura then sat on her seat. After a minute or so, she felt very uncomfortable. Every student was looking at her. Girls were glaring and guys were staring. She just stared at the blackboard in front, which was quite amusing to her at that situation. Her teacher isn't really that lively that's why she just stared at the board.

After three classes feeling rather uncomfortable, lunch came. Sakura was very glad that it came. She completely forgot about the tour with Syaoran. She quickly ran towards Tomoyo who was still at the door.

"Tomoyo! Wait for me." Sakura said.

Tomoyo smiled as she saw her friend ran towards her.

"Come on. I want you to meet my friends. They're waiting for us at the cherry blossom tree where we always eat our lunch." She said.

The two walked towards the tree. While they were walking, Tomoyo remembered about the incident a while ago.

"Sakura, how did you know Li Syaoran?" Tomoyo asked curiously.

Sakura sighed. "Actually, I myself don't now either. I had a dream about him." she blushed as she remembered that they were about to kiss in her dream. "Then suddenly I mentioned his name."

"Are you sure you're telling me every detail in your dream?" Tomoyo said as she eyed Sakura skeptically.

"Umm…. Yes!" Sakura said then she saw Tomoyo looked towards something. She saw a guy and a girl below the tree. She recognized the guy as Syaoran and the girl she didn't know.

"Sakura, there they are!" Tomoyo said as she pointed towards the group.

"Hi!" Tomoyo yelled at them.

"Hi Tomoyo!" came the reply from the three persons.

When we came near them, Tomoyo introduced Sakura.

"This is Kinomoto Sakura." She said.

"Hi! I'm Li Meilin." Said the girl with black hair in pigtails with ruby red eyes. "You can call me Meilin."

"Nice to meet you. You can call me Sakura." Sakura said with a smile making Syaoran who was sitting beside Meilin blush. Fortunately, no one noticed but he soon discovered that Tomoyo was smirking evilly at him. He knew that she saw him blush then Tomoyo nodded towards Sakura meaning he must introduce himself once more.

"You already know me. I'm Li Syaoran." Syaoran said as he blushed. "You can call me Syaoran." He said.

"Hi." Sakura said shyly. "Ummmm… You can also call me Sakura." She said as a tinge of pink appeared in her cheeks.

This time, Tomoyo and Meilin noticed it. The two looked at one another and had an evil smirk fixed upon their face.

"Time for Matchmaking!" They both thought.

"Hey guys! Don't tell me you've already forgotten about me." A blue haired boy with azure eyes said.

Sakura noticed the aura. She immediately turned around to be face to face with his half-father. A tear leaked in her eyes. They all noticed it. Eriol was wondering what he did to make her cry. The three stared at Eriol wondering what he did. They knew that only Eriol can be so evil to do evil tricks.

"I'll be back in a second. I'll just go to the bathroom." Sakura said as she bowed her head. She just ran off to because she knew that if she didn't, she'll just cry and cry. She missed her father a lot. She can't go to the bathroom for she still didn't know where it was. She just ran back inside the school and dried up her tears.

On the other hand, the trio was torturing Eriol.

"What did you do to her?" Tomoyo asked.

"I didn't do anything." Eriol said the grin from his face fading.

"Oh! So the half of Clow is innocent. How truthful!" Syaoran said sarcastically.

"Honestly, I didn't do anything to her!" Eriol said.

"Well, she's just really happy when she first came here and it just happened that when you arrived she cried." Meilin said annoyed at Eriol.

"He didn't do anything to me." Sakura said as she came near them. "Believe him. He's telling the truth." Sakura said sternly.

Meilin was about to say something when Tomoyo nudged her. Tomoyo shook her head at Meilin for she knew that Sakura wanted to avoid the subject.

Meilin just announced that they should eat now. They still have an hour and a half for lunch. After 30 minutes, they finished their lunch.

"Are you alright now?" Syaoran asked in a concerned tone of voice.

Sakura gave him a weak smile, which caused Syaoran to blush. Tomoyo and Meilin saw it and they grinned mischievously. The gaze of those two made Syaoran very uncomfortable.

"Ah.. I.. I need to.. to get something.. See ya!" He stammered but before he moved a hand grabbed his arm. Sakura recalled what the teacher told her about the tour.

"I thought you were supposed to tour me around the school." She said as Syaoran stopped. When Syaoran recognized the voice, she immediately turned crimson. The feeling when Sakura touched him was beyond words. He wouldn't want to turn back and look at her for she will see his red face but he had no choice.

"Umm…. can we just do it after school?" Syaoran said stumbling for words.

"Okay!" Sakura said cheerfully not letting go of Syaoran's arms and unfortunately, Meilin noticed it.

"Ahem! Sakura, I think you had enough of Syaoran's arms. You can let go now." She said.

Sakura turned crimson and Syaoran's face just got worse. Sakura immediately released his arm as if it was a bomb that might explode any minute.

Meilin and Tomoyo giggled at what happened. They can see that even if it was the first time those two meet, they already have a thing for each other.

Syaoran quickly ran towards the building to avoid the comments the pair would make to embarrass him in front of Sakura. As Syaoran went out of view, Sakura's face returned back to its normal color.

The three (Sakura, Tomoyo and Meilin) still didn't notice the unusual silence of Eriol. Eriol was still deep in thought.

Eriol's POV

Why did she cried? What have I done? It's the first time I met her but it feels like were somehow connected or related to each other. Who is she? What is she hiding from us? I better ask Tomoyo.

Normal POV

While thinking, Eriol twitch his eyebrows or squeeze his eyes shut. As Tomoyo noticed something unusual, she noticed the sudden change of Eriol's expression.

"Is there something wrong?" she asked as she turned to Eriol.

Eriol didn't answer her. He was still deep in thought. Tomoyo thought something was really wrong for Eriol never ignored her. It was the first time he never acknowledged Tomoyo.

"Eriol. Eriol. Eriol. Eriol." Tomoyo called Eriol calmly but she still haven't got any reply so she did what she have to do.

"ERIOL!" she yelled at the top of her voice making the around them look at them. She just smiled at them sweetly, which made them return to what they were doing earlier. Tomoyo's gaze then turned back to Eriol.

"What's wrong?" she asked concerned.

"Nothing. I'm fine." Eriol said but Tomoyo still isn't convinced even Meilin and Sakura were concerned for him.

Sakura knew why he was acting like that. He was wondering why she cried.

Sakura's POV

I can't tell him about me being his half-daughter but I need someone to talk about it. She thought of someone she could trust then her gaze fell upon Tomoyo. Tomoyo! That's it. I trust her very much. But still I'm not very sure if he is Clow Reed but his aura…I'll just ask Tomoyo.

Normal POV

"Tomoyo, can I talk to you alone?" Sakura said.

"Ok." Tomoyo said reluctantly. She still don't want to leave Eriol until she knew what was wrong but she felt that what Sakura needed to tell her was something really important.

They left Eriol and Meilin alone at the cherry blossom tree. They headed towards the playground while Tomoyo lead the way. It was not really far from the tree where they came from. They figures could still be seen by Eriol and Meilin.

"Do you know something about Sakura?" Eriol said as the pair left.

"What do you mean?" Meilin eyed him suspiciously.

"Well, when she first saw me, she cried. I swear to God I didn't do anything to her. But as you said earlier, she was happy but when I came, she felt sad."

"Sorry for not believing you earlier. It's just that you, Eriol, is always involve in doing tricks to people and most of the time, you are always denying what you did."

"I understand but I think there is something going on."

"You think that Sakura is hiding something from us?"

"I guess so. Do you know what they are talking about?"

"I have no idea but maybe she's gonna tell Tomoyo about her secret. They've been friends for a long time now."

On Sakura and Tomoyo's conversation….

"So Sakura, what do you want to tell me? Is it about Syaoran?" she said playfully but she regretted saying it when she noticed the serious face of Sakura.

"Sakura, what's wrong? You know you can tell me." Tomoyo said with a voice full of concern.

"I know. For now, you're the only friend I have but I hope soon I'll have more."

"Oh! I'm sure about it. You're a very kind and cheerful person besides that you're very kawaii!!" Tomoyo squealed with happiness.

"Tomoyo, I hope what I'm gonna tell you will be a secret. Please don't tell it to anyone, especially Eriol."

"Okay. Is it about why you cried when you saw Eriol?"

Sakura sighed. She needed to tell her secret about Eriol being her half- father or she will explode. She already felt many things and if she didn't share it to anyone she trusts, she thinks that anytime she'll explode.

"Yes but first, I want you to answer some of my questions. I need to confirm some things first. I'm still doubting some things."

"Okay."

They sat down as Sakura began to talk.

"Who is Eriol?"

Tomoyo is very confused but she still answered Sakura.

"Well, he is a transfer student – " Tomoyo was cut by Sakura as she spoke.

"No." as she shake her head. "Describe him being involve in magic."

"Well, one thing is for sure. He is the half-reincarnation of Clow Reed."
