Hello, everyone! I shouldn't be writing right now, because... well, I went to the beach a couple of days ago and I was ready to lay down in the sand and everything. It happened that I over exposed myself to the sun and right now my face looks like a tomato, , my cheeks are totally red and so is my nose, so... you can imagine. I have a huge headache, everything is bad in my life right now!
Anyways, this isn't the time. I want to say thank you to everyone who read and review this story. I'm putting a small thank you list to everyone who reviewed my last two chapters. I really love writing, so I'm putting this chapter (I still don't know if it's the last!) and I will start working in a new story. Even though a have a third fic on the run right now. Now, thank you to:
- pinklover: first of all, I love your stories! Now, I still don't know if she's going to interrupt the wedding or is going and wait for Syaoran to go for her. We'll see about that.
- cOnFuSeD: there's a lot of fluff coming, don't worry.
- d: let's just say that Tomoyo has a lot of influence and they couldn't wait until the next day! And if Syaoran is not listening to anybody, he will have to listen to the two videos.
- Kawaii Chibi Cherry: did they kiss already? That wasn't very clear in the last chapter of your super kawaii story! Thank you for your reviews as well, I love reading them too. And about the end, you can tell me later if this is what you thought that was gonna happen. Did I took too long updating this chapter?
- Heavens-Angel: *blush* Thanks for your review, and I'm glad you like my story.
- J Blowya: nothing else to say, I'm glad you like it.
- LiL: now you'll know what she's planning. But I'm afraid her plan will not be completely successful. At least not a part of it.
- aZnDrEaMeR1788: I know it sucks, but I'm the evil writer and this is the way the story came into my mind. I'll try to make it better, of course that is after Tomoyo puts her plan into action.
- Kan-chan: don't thank me, I really like your stories, they are great! I don't know if Syaoran will be shocked about the video about Sakura, but I'm sure he'll be about the other video. That's if he sees it. (I'm so evil)
Thank you to all the other people that read this story. Now on with the story.
A HIDDEN PLACE (chapter 10)
"Passengers for flight 879 to Sydney, Australia, please board in gate A33" (I made this up, I don't remember if that's what they say). Sakura stood up, and Josh stood next to her.
"This is it" she said, taking her bag. "Wish me luck".
"Good luck" he said, and hugged her. "Bring me a girlfriend" he whispered and Sakura giggled.
"I'll try" she said smiling. "I'll see you next year. You'll be here, right?"
"But of course" he said. "We'll keep in touch". Sakura nodded. "Call me when you get there".
"Ok. Bye" she said and started to walk away. When she passed the boarding gate, Josh took out his cell phone and dialed a number.
"Hello?" answered someone in the other line.
"She just left" said Josh, leaving the airport.
"Ok, that's perfect. Thanks, Josh" said the other person before hanging up.
"You're welcome" he said and hanged up too. He looked at the sky and sighed. 'Please, let everything turn out ok' he thought.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sakura sitted down in her seat and looked out the window. She didn't knew if this was the right thing to do, but she wanted to do it to forget that part of her life and start again. Even though that wasn't completely true, she was lying to herself saying that she needed to rest a little, but what she really wanted was to get away from Syaoran and forget about her feelings.
A couple of times before the plane started to move, Sakura had the impulse of getting up, leaving that plane and go to the wedding and tell Syaoran how she felt. She assumed he didn't knew, but she had no idea what was happening in that moment in Tomoyo's house where the wedding was being held.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tomoyo hanged up and sitted next to her boyfriend, who was looking at her with curiosity.
"Who was that?" asked Eriol.
"It was Josh, Sakura is about to leave. Come on and help me, I need to find Syaoran" she said and they left the room. After walking for a while, they found him in the garden, sitted under a tree.
"Syaoran" called Tomoyo. He raised his head to see who it was.
"What's wrong, Tomoyo?" he asked. She looked at Eriol and he got it, she needed to talk to him alone.
"I'm worried about you" she said, sitting next to him. "Are you sure you want to do this?".
"Yeah, I'm sure" he said. "I'm sure" he repeated. Tomoyo shook her head.
"You don't have to lie to me, Syaoran" she said and he looked at her. "I know what you're thinking".
"Well, if you know" he said, looking down again. "Then I'll tell you that I'm doing this anyways".
"But you don't love her" she said. This wasn't getting any better. "You are lying to her, which is worst. Besides, you are going to lose the woman you love just for her!" she nearly yelled this. Syaoran didn't reply. Tomoyo sighed. "Ok, come with me" she said. He looked at her and got up. They walked to Eriol's room and Tomoyo went straight to the TV.
"What's this?" he asked. Tomoyo got up.
"Sit down" she said. He sitted down and was starting to talk again, but she interrupted him. "When I leave, I want you to press play. Then tell me what you think about it" she said before leaving.
Syaoran was wondering what kind of trick was this and was gonna leave, but something told him that he wanted and needed to see this. So he sighed and pressed play. After a couple of seconds something appeared and Syaoran got really shocked.
"Hi, Syaoran. First of all, I have to say congratulations on your wedding, I hope everything goes fine. And I have to tell you something..." Syaoran saw her taking a deep breath, when he couldn't breath of the impression of seeing her beautiful face in the screen. "About everything that happened while you were here, I have to tell you how happy I am that you were here when I needed you, and I thank you so much for that. I don't care if you are getting married now, but I needed you to know how I feel, and if you are happy with Kathy, I will be fine" Syaoran slid to the floor from the edge of the bed and grabbed his hair to release the anger he was feeling in that moment. "I love you so much that I want you to be happy even if it's not with me". Syaoran saw her sobbing and some tears were running down her cheeks. He couldn't believe that she was crying, and the worst of all was that everything was his fault. "I hope you don't forget me again and keep in touch with me. If you don't, then... I guess this is goodbye. I'm leaving to Australia in a couple of hours, and I don't know if I'll be coming back soon. Remember me, and everything we did here. The only thing I regret was not telling you this in person... I guess I was scared. Other than that, I don't regret a thing about the days we spented together, and... maybe we are not meant to be together, so... I love you Syaoran, and goodbye". The screen went blue, but Syaoran didn't noticed that. He buried his face in his hands, not noticing two people looking at him from the door. Maybe that's why he started to sob and some tears started to run down his face.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tomoyo closed the door when he started to cry. Eriol leaned against the wall.
"Well, we know the video caused some effect in him" he said, and Tomoyo stood next to him. "I hope he decides to call the wedding off".
"I hope he does it soon, because almost all the guests are here" said Tomoyo. They were already dressed, the wedding was going to start soon and Syaoran wasn't leaving the room, he still had to get dressed. Suddenly the door opened and Syaoran got out, looking completely normal, and worst of all, he was getting dressed for the wedding. Eriol and Tomoyo looked at him, expecting an answer.
"Eriol, can you help me with the tie?" he asked. Tomoyo looked at him, with a puzzled look on her face. This didn't look good.
"Did you saw the video?" she asked, even thought she knew he had. He nodded. "So? What are you gonna do?" asked Tomoyo again.
"As much as I love her, this is something I was doing in the first place, even before I saw Sakura again. I won't hurt Kathy, I love her as a friend, but I can't hurt her, even if that means..." said Syaoran, but couldn't finish the last part.
"Fine" said Tomoyo, really mad. "If this is what you want, if you want to be unhappy for the rest of your life..."
"Tomoyo..." said Eriol, he moved in front of Tomoyo and put his hands in her shoulders, trying to calm her down.
"NO!! I need to say this" said Tomoyo, pushing him aside and facing Syaoran, who looked really hurt. "I care about you, and I don't want to see you unhappy, but if you really want to do this, I'm not stopping you. But I think you are not making the right choice". When she finished, her eyes were brilliant from the tears she was fighting to keep in her eyes, she couldn't take it and went to her room. Eriol looked how she was leaving and patted Syaoran in his shoulder. Everything that Tomoyo had said to him was right, he wasn't going to be happy, but he was going to learn to love Kathy, even if it took all of their life together to accomplish that. He went back into the room where Eriol was waiting for him.
"You are mad at me, are you?" asked Syaoran, while Eriol was fixing the tie.
"No, I'm not. It's your life, you make the choices now" said Eriol, but deep down he was a bit mad, because Syaoran had given up on his little sister, and he knew that she was suffering a lot right now. "But I think the same way Tomoyo does: you are not making the right choice here".
"I know, but it's too late to regret it now" he said, looking at himself in the mirror. Eriol left the room and went straight to Tomoyo's, only to find her searching for something in a box.
"What are you looking for?" he asked, sitting next to her. She took out a tape from the box and put it in her video camera, she pressed play to make sure it was the right one, and then looked at him.
"If Syaoran isn't smart enough to stop the wedding, I will" she said. "And I have something that will show Syaoran that this isn't the best choice he could make" she said, before standing up. The wedding was about to begin and she had to go and check out on her sister. Eriol left the room too and left to the garden, where all the guests were waiting for the couple.
Tomoyo entered the room and looked at her sister. She looked good, of course, Kathy was a beautiful girl, but se wasn't a very good person on the inside. Tomoyo sighed and started to fix her dress in some parts.
"Is Syaoran there already?" she asked.
"I don't know, I think he is" said Tomoyo, standing in front of her. "How can you do this?" she asked.
"Oh, shut up" said Kathy, looking at herself in the mirror. "I look wonderful, don't you think?" she asked.
"Yeah" said Tomoyo, not really convinced.
"Everything's perfect right now" said the bride, clasping her hands in front of her. "I just hope that this cousin of him doesn't show up, that would ruin my wedding" she said, frowning.
"Sakura isn't coming, she left to Australia a couple of hours ago" said Tomoyo, really mad. 'I can't wait until the wedding starts, I'm gonna make her feel sorry for everything she has done' thought Tomoyo.
"Really? That's wonderful!" said Kathy, laughing. "I never liked how Syaoran was always worried about her, I never liked the fact that he stayed there with her for two or three months" she said, and they felt a knock on the door. "Oh, those must be the bridesmaids" she said. Tomoyo sighed, opened the door. Three young girls entered the room.
"I'll see you there" said Tomoyo before leaving. she went and sitted down next to Eriol. She could see Syaoran, he was standing there next to his best man. Tomoyo looked at him with a bit of hate. He was Luke, Syaoran's best friend and the one she had seen with Kathy in that tape when she left her camera recording. Right now she was happy that she had done that, because now she had a chance to get revenge to her sister for all the things she had done since she was 17.
The music started to play and everyone stood up as Kathy and the other girls came walking down the aisle (Is that how you say it? I have no idea!) . Syaoran looked at her with an emotionless face. He tried to smile, but he couldn't do it, he didn't feel like it. He looked at his best friend, who was beside him and he gave Syaoran a support smile. He took a deep breath and prepared himself for this, but Sakura's words kept echoing in his mind.
'I love you, Syaoran'.
(Ok, I don't know what the priest says in a wedding, so I'll put just the basics)
"Dearly beloved, we are gathered together here in the sight of God, and in the face of this company, to join together this Man and this Woman in holy Matrimony. If any man can show just cause, why they may not lawfully be joined together, let him now speak, or else hereafter forever hold his peace". When the priest said this last words, Syaoran was expecting that Sakura showed up and said that she did, but he was really surprised when he heard her say those words.
"I do". Everyone gasped and turned around or stood up to see who had said that. Kathy nearly had a heart attack when she saw her own sister standing up.
"Tomoyo, what are you doing?" said Kathy, through clenched teeths.
"I'm doing something I should have done a long time ago" she said, while she was leaving her seat. "Syaoran, Kathy is cheating on you" she said. New gasps could be heard.
"What?" said Syaoran, looking at Kathy, then at Tomoyo, and back again.
"Don't listen to her, she's just jealous" said Kathy, trying to stay calm, but Tomoyo could see that she was getting nervous, and Luke was getting nervous too.
"Why would I be jealous?" asked Tomoyo. "I already have my boyfriend, so I think I'm telling the truth, unless I had another reason to interrupt your marriage, which I don't" said, leaving Kathy without words. "That's the only reason, she's cheatng on you, Syaoran". He turned around to see her, but Kathy wasn't going to give up so easily.
"You are doing this because I stole your boyfriend, that's why!" yelled Kathy, and this time it seemed that she had hit Tomoyo in the part that hurt the most, but that was only getting things worst for her.
"You stole Tomoyo's boyfriend?" asked Syaoran, not believing that the sweet Kathy he knew could be like that. "She's your own sister". She looked at him, and started to play the victim again.
"I didn't mean to... we loved each other" she said, but Tomoyo started to laugh.
"You are a very good actress, Kathy" said Tomoyo, before walking towards Syaoran. "I'll show you the prove of what I'm saying, and you'll see that is true" she said, and pressed a button in her videocamera. Meanwhile, Eriol was looking with great interest at the glances that Luke and Kathy were sharing and the faces they had.
Syaoran started to look in the videocamera and what he saw left him breathless. He couldn't believe that Kathy could be that evil. He looked at the date in the small screen: April 2002. They were already engaged. But Sakura's dad was still alive. Then he saw the face of the man with her. Tomoyo pressed stop and had a smile on her face.
"There you have it, Syaoran. So, I'm just jealous, Kathy, right?" she asked. Kathy was looking down.
"The wedding's off" said Syaoran. Kathy looked at him and started to shake her head. "Stop your games, Kathy, I don't believe you anymore".
"No, no, Syaoran, please don't" she said. "I promise I didn't mean to, it happened really fast, it wasn't my fault, please don't cancel the wedding" she said. Syaoran turned to see Luke's pale face, and he had a sad expression on his face.
"I love her, it was our choice, not only mine" he said, before walking away. Kathy was totally angry in that moment. Eriol had a smile on his face, he knew that Syaoran felt awful in that moment, but now he knew that he could do what he wanted.
"Kathy, it was you and my best friend. What was that about?!" he said. "If there's something I don't take it's someone that lies and cheats. I don't love you, I can't marry you. Right now, I just feel sorry for you". Eriol got up and called Syaoran with his hand. He nodded and left a really mad and sad Kathy in her wedding dress. Everyone started to leave. Kathy looked at Tomoyo who was still next to her.
"You are gonna pay for this" growled, but Tomoyo just smiled.
" I didn't do anything. I just saved you from being unhappy" she said, and left her alone.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tomoyo found them in Syaoran's room, where he was packing his stuff.
"How are you, Syaoran?" she asked. He looked at her.
"I was shocked, but I'm fine now. And all because of you" he said. She smiled and he hugged her. "I almost made the worst mistake of my life".
"But you are still in time to correct it" said Eriol. He had Tomoyo's camera in his hands.
"So, are you going to Australia?" asked Tomoyo, helping Syaoran with some of his things.
"Yeah, but I still don't know how I'm gonna find her. Where is she?" asked Syaoran, closing his suitcase.
"She's in Sydney. I have a few contacts, I'll call and tell you where she is exactly" said Tomoyo.
"I have an idea" said Eriol. They looked at him and he smiled. She was gonna be so shocked.

When the priest said this last words, Syaoran was expecting that Sakura showed up and said that she did, but he was really surprised when he heard her say those words.
"I do". Everyone gasped and turned around or stood up to see who had said that. Kathy nearly had a heart attack when she saw her own sister standing up.
"Tomoyo, what are you doing?" said Kathy, through clenched teeths.
"I'm doing something I should have done a long time ago" she said, while she was leaving her seat. "Syaoran, Kathy is cheating on you" she said. New gasps could be heard.
"What?" said Syaoran, looking at Kathy, then at Tomoyo, and back again.
"Don't listen to her, she's just jealous" said Kathy, trying to stay calm, but Tomoyo could see that she was getting nervous, and Luke was getting nervous too.
"Why would I be jealous?" asked Tomoyo. "I already have my boyfriend, so I think I'm telling the truth, unless I had another reason to interrupt your marriage, which I don't" said, leaving Kathy without words. "That's the only reason, she's cheatng on you, Syaoran". He turned around to see her, but Kathy wasn't going to give up so easily.
"You are doing this because I stole your boyfriend, that's why!" yelled Kathy, and this time it seemed that she had hit Tomoyo in the part that hurt the most, but that was only getting things worst for her.
"You stole Tomoyo's boyfriend?" asked Syaoran, not believing that the sweet Kathy he knew could be like that. "She's your own sister". She looked at him, and started to play the victim again.
"I didn't mean to... we loved each other" she said, but Tomoyo started to laugh.
"You are a very good actress, Kathy" said Tomoyo, before walking towards Syaoran. "I'll show you the prove of what I'm saying, and you'll see that is true" she said, and pressed a button in her videocamera. Meanwhile, Eriol was looking with great interest at the glances that Luke and Kathy were sharing and the faces they had.
Syaoran started to look in the videocamera and what he saw left him breathless. He couldn't believe that Kathy could be that evil. He looked at the date in the small screen: April 2002. They were already engaged. But Sakura's dad was still alive. Then he saw the face of the man with her. Tomoyo pressed stop and had a smile on her face.
"There you have it, Syaoran. So, I'm just jealous, Kathy, right?" she asked. Kathy was looking down.
"The wedding's off" said Syaoran. Kathy looked at him and started to shake her head. "Stop your games, Kathy, I don't believe you anymore".
"No, no, Syaoran, please don't" she said. "I promise I didn't mean to, it happened really fast, it wasn't my fault, please don't cancel the wedding" she said. Syaoran turned to see Luke's pale face, and he had a sad expression on his face.
"I love her, it was our choice, not only mine" he said, before walking away. Kathy was totally angry in that moment. Eriol had a smile on his face, he knew that Syaoran felt awful in that moment, but now he knew that he could do what he wanted.
"Kathy, it was you and my best friend. What was that about?!" he said. "If there's something I don't take it's someone that lies and cheats. I don't love you, I can't marry you. Right now, I just feel sorry for you". Eriol got up and called Syaoran with his hand. He nodded and left a really mad and sad Kathy in her wedding dress. Everyone started to leave. Kathy looked at Tomoyo who was still next to her.
"You are gonna pay for this" growled, but Tomoyo just smiled.
" I didn't do anything. I just saved you from being unhappy" she said, and left her alone.

Tomoyo found them in Syaoran's room, where he was packing his stuff.
"How are you, Syaoran?" she asked. He looked at her.
"I was shocked, but I'm fine now. And all because of you" he said. She smiled and he hugged her. "I almost made the worst mistake of my life".
"But you are still in time to correct it" said Eriol. He had Tomoyo's camera in his hands.
"So, are you going to Australia?" asked Tomoyo, helping Syaoran with some of his things.
"Yeah, but I still don't know how I'm gonna find her. Where is she?" asked Syaoran, closing his suitcase.
"She's in Sydney. I have a few contacts, I'll call and tell you where she is exactly" said Tomoyo.
"I have an idea" said Eriol. They looked at him and he smiled. She was gonna be so shocked.
