Ok, quick announcement. Some people are saying I should do a sequel to my last fic, Anything but ordinary. The ones who read it, please tell me what you think so I can think of something to make a sequel good enough like the first part. Anyways, here's chap 2.

A HIDDEN PLACE (Chapter 2)

Sakura looked horrified. 'He's engaged... engaged'. She couldn't believe it. Even though he was her cousin, she always felt jealous about him. But it wasn't the right time to do anything.

"Nice to meet you, Kathy" said, with the most normal voice she could find.
"Nice meeting you too. I'm sorry about your dad" said Kathy, hugging Syaoran even tighter.
"It's ok, I..." started Sakura, but she was interrupted for a girl with long purple hair. She was going on her way to talk to Kathy.

"Kathy, can you come here, please?" said the girl, and smiled to Sakura. Sakura smiled back. Kathy left, and Sakura stopped smiling and came back to her old sad expression.
She went and sitted down on a chair that was there. Syaoran sitted next to her and hugged her.

"How are you?" said Syaoran, almost whispering.
"Fine, on what I can. I... I was there when he died. I was right next to him. And... he didn't said anything to me before he left" said Sakura. She wanted to tell everything she had there in her heart, and she was gonna explode now.
"It's ok, everything's gonna be ok. Don't worry. Eriol is here, he's going to take care of you now and..."
"I don't anyone to take care of me" said Sakura, interrupting. She had a sudden rage attack, and was filling every place in her mind and her soul. "I've take care of myself and of my dad for a long time, with no help"
"But you are gonna need support during this time" said Syaoran, trying to calm her, but she wasn't ok. She stood up and started to walk around the balcony. "I'm staying here too for a couple of months"
"And what's the point of it? You haven't been here since Touya died, I don't need you" said Sakura, but she regreted in the moment she said that. So she tried to make it up. "What makes you think I'm gonna need your support?"
"I got your letter" said Syaoran, and Sakura got surprised. She thought he wasn't going to get it. "And, believe me or not, I've been needing you too. I was so busy with school as you can't imagine. And I couldn't find time to write you back. I know you don't believe me" said, looking at the face Sakura had. She was resisting to believe he had been thinking about her all this time as well. "But I didn't knew about uncle's passing for Eriol's call. I got your letter. Looks like it was sended as urgent, and I got it this morning. I took the first plane. Kathy and her sister came with me, but I wanted to come alone" He went to her. She looked bad. "I want to spent the most time I can with you, and Kathy is kinda possessive, so..." Sakura laughed. Syaoran smiled when he saw the old Sakura come back.
"Thanks for coming. I'm sorry for what I said before. I know I had friends who helped me, but no one can replace you" said Sakura. He hugged her.
"You are my favorite cousin, I could have never left you alone. You are like the sister I never had." said Syaoran. He felt so good. He wanted to see her for a long time, because she was special. She knew how to make him feel happy.
"Syaoran?" said a female voice.

They turned around, and it was the girl with pruple hair they had seen before.

"Sakura, this is Tomoyo. She's Kathy's sister" said Syaoran.
"Hi, Sakura. Sorry about your dad, I hope you are ok" said Tomoyo, smiling at her again.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Thanks for coming" said Sakura. Totally opposite to Kathy, Tomoyo looked friendly. Kathy didn't look friendly at all, in fact, her smiles were cold, without emotions.
"Don't worry. Syaoran, Kathy is going back. She has to take care of the wedding details. Your sisters are helping there, so there's no problem. I'm staying here to join you" said Tomoyo.
"Ok, Tomoyo, thanks" said Syaoran.
"I'm going to take Kathy to the airport. See you later. Bye, Sakura" said Tomoyo, before leaving.
"Bye" said Sakura. When she left, she took Syaoran's arm and make him face her.
"Why you didn't told me about your wedding?" said, very mad.
"I told you, I didn't had time." said Syaoran. Then he looked back, to make sure no one was around and make her go to a place away from the crowd. "Like I said, Kathy is very possessive. At first, I was busy with school, but then, when I met her, it was worst. I couldn't do anything without her supervision. So, I didn't had time to write. Actually, she picked the guest list. I was going to make sure you were included, but..."
"Let me guess. She didn't let you, didn't she?" said Sakura. He nodded.
"But I was telling you anyways" said Syaoran. Sakura raised an eyebrow, suspiciously. "I swear I was telling you" said Syaoran again.
"I didn't said anything" said Sakura, dragging him back inside. There, Josh finally found her.
"Where were you, girl?" said Josh, and took her wrist.
"Josh, I was with... well, Josh, this is my cousin Syaoran. Syaoran, this is Josh, he's a friend of mine" said Sakura. Josh didn't suspected anything. Of course, because they were cousins. But Syaoran used to get jealous about her too, and this wasn't the exception. He was overprotecting to her. But he knew how to handle it and make it look normal.
"Nice meeting you" said Syaoran. Josh nodded. Sakura smiled at both of them and Josh blushed. Syaoran saw this and got even more jealous. 'I gotta watch this guy' were his thoughts.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In Tomoyo's car, she and Kathy were talking.

"But I don't want to come back" said Kathy.
"Kathy, you can't spent all your time with Syaoran. He needs to breath. You can't be there with him all the time" said Tomoyo, trying to concentrate on the road.
"But I don't want him to cheat on me. There's a lot of benefits on marrying him and I can't let that happen" said Kathy, turning on the radio.
"If he loves you, he won't. And I don't understand why you insist on marrying him if you don't love him" said Tomoyo, turning it off.
"He's cute and he has money. I don't love him, there's only atracttion, but... I don't need anything else" said Kathy, looking outside the window. They were at the airport now.
"Ok, I'll stay here to help Syaoran on what he needs. You go there and set everything up for the next months" said Tomoyo, helping Kathy to take her luggagge out of the car. Then she went into the car and drove off the airport. She had lots of ideas in her mind.

'I can't believe Kathy is my sister. All she cares about is money, money, money. I have to do something to stop this wedding' thought as she was turning on the radio. 'But I have to do it in some way she won't find out about it' said.

When Tomoyo got to Sakura's house again, everybody was gone. She knocked the door and saw a guy with blue eyes, blue hair and glasses opening it.

"Is Syaoran here?" asked Tomoyo, very shy.
"Yeah, come in" said Eriol. "He's in the balcony, with Sakura"
"Ok, thanks" said Tomoyo, but Eriol talked to her again.
"Excuse me, are you Syaoran's fiancée?" asked Eriol.
"No, I'm her sister. My name is Tomoyo" she said.
"I'm Eriol, Sakura's brother" said Eriol. They shook hands. They stood there for awhile, in an ackward silence, until Tomoyo talked again.
"I'm gonna go and see Syaoran. Excuse me" said Tomoyo and went to the balcony.

What she saw there make her stood there watching them. Sakura was sitted on the ground. Her eyes were red, and she had some tissues on her hand. Syaoran was hugging her by her shoulders. He was kissing her hair in that moment. Tomoyo suddenly remembered why she was there.

"Excuse me" said Tomoyo, and Sakura and Syaoran raised their heads. "Syaoran, I need to talk to you" she said. Syaoran nodded. He stood up and helped Sakura to get on her feets too.

"Go and have some sleep, ok?" said Syaoran. Sakura nodded. Then he hugged hair and kissed her forehead. She smiled to Tomoyo when she passed next to her.
"What's up?" said Syaoran, sitting on a chair. Tomoyo sitted next to him.
"Kathy left. You know that. I'm staying here to help you in what you need. Besides, I feel Sakura is gonna need a lot of help. I know I don't know her" said Tomoyo, standing up, and starting to walk around. "But I think she's gonna need some help. And sometimes you need from the support of someone that's not a guy"
Syaoran laughed at this.
"Are you staying here?" asked Tomoyo, after a silence.
"Yeah. I asked already to my college for the transference. I'm staying here, so I'm studying here as well." said Syaoran. "What about you?"
"I'm staying here for as long as you, so I think I'm gonna search for an apartment or something" said Tomoyo. "Well, I better get to that now. See you later Syaoran" said, kissed him on the cheek and left. Syaoran sighed. He stayed there for awhile. Then he went to sleep.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Weeks passed slowly. Sakura had moved on with her life, but Syaoran could still caught her crying. He was always there for her, making her feel better. Josh was jealous, because before Syaoran was around, he used to be the one helping her, and now he was taking time that belonged to him. Tomoyo, by her part, was helping Eriol to organize the house, because they had to see what to do with all the things Fujitaka had. Eriol proposed Tomoyo to stay at their house, because they had extra rooms, so there was no bother. Tomoyo accepted, and that way they used to spent lots of time taking boxes out, watching their content and deciding to keep it or throw it away.

In their times out, Tomoyo and Eriol talked a lot. But after the third week, the conversation started to get interesting.

"So, do you think your sister is appropiate to Syaoran?" asked Eriol one of those days.
"I don't know" said Tomoyo, with a sigh. "She is weird. All she cares about is herself. So she takes care of her looks and having a good boyfriend. But I guess she thought this one was the best, because she used to go out with them for a month or so and then dump him for a better one" ended.
"Wait. Are you saying she's only interested on Syaoran...?"
"I don't know what you are thinking, but if you are thinking money, yes, she is" said Tomoyo, very sad.
"But you should do something!" said Eriol, mad. "You can't let my cousin to suffer like that!"
"I don't know what to do" said Tomoyo. "I know he doesn't love her, but all I have to do is to show him there's someone out there for him, that's waiting"
"We'll come up with something" said Eriol, standing up from the couch.
"We?" asked Tomoyo.
"Yes. Come on, we have to keep cleaning" said Eriol and offered his hand. Tomoyo took it, and stood up.

They were cleaning for awhile, and Tomoyo took a box from a place in Fujitaka's office.

"There's a box here. Eriol, help me" said Tomoyo. Eriol went and helped her to get it out. They opened it and it had a letter on it.
"Ok, let me see" said Eriol. There were lots of letters in order. There were bunch of them Eriol took one from all the ones on the box. "This letter is adressed to my mom from... Syaoran's mom?"
"I heard they were great friends. Or at least that's what Syaoran told me." answered Tomoyo.

"Nice. It goes like this:

Dear Nadeshiko:

You know what has been happening with my life in the past time. And now I found out that I'm pregnant. What is everybody gonna say? I will have to say is your brother's son. But you know that it may not be true. My four daughters are big, and they can't suspect anything. But I'm worried about your brother'r reaction. Do you think I should tell him? I know is complicated. I had an affair with another man and now I'm pregnant. It's a big deal...."

Tomoyo couldn't hear anymore. Eriol didn't wanted to read. Tomoyo was the first to speak again.

"Are you thinking what I'm thinking, Eriol?" said.
"I don't know, But according to this letter..." started Eriol.
"Sakura and Syaoran are gonna be so bad when they find out"
"I can't believe that... Syaoran is not our cousin"
