My 5th fic! Sometimes you have to let to go to find happiness. Meilin will go to any extent to make Syaoran happy, even if it means giving him up. Syoaran is just beginning to realize that Sakura might not be the one for him. Could it possibly be Meilin?

"Even if it's her and not me, I will give you up to make you happy." finished Meilin with Syaoran in front of her, mouth open, jaw hanging slightly.

"So you're...you're letting me go to be with Sakura?" asked Syaoran not believing what she had just said.

"Yes, you deserve her as she deserves you. I hope you will be happy." Meilin trailed off.

"Thank. Thank-you, Meilin. I hope you too will be happy." said Syoaran wondering why a part of his heart ached a bit. He should be happy, he had always wanted to be with Sakura ever since she told him how she felt that fateful day, he had replied, "I love you too." But then at that moment Meilin had come in and dragged him onto the plane.

And now- now she was letting him go- when a part of his heart ached to stay. "Be happy," he told himself quietly, "This is what you've always wanted. Now Go!"

Meilin pulled out a plane ticket from her pocket. "This is a ticket to Japan; back to Sakura. I hope you will be happy." She said, handing him the ticket.

"But how will I get back?" asked Syaoran. "And how did you get this ticket without the elders' permission?" He knew that the ticket did not have the elders' signature on it which meant they did not grant the money for the ticket.

"You won't need to come back," answered Meilin. "Sakura will not leave her family and come to China so you must be the one to leave. When you get married, please tell me, I will get the elders to grant Sakura permission to be your wife, (the elders had a soft spot for Meilin) it shouldn't be hard, since she has the Sakura cards. And maybe I'll be invited to the wedding, if you can forgive me for keeping you both apart." A tear rolled down her eye.

Syaoran did not get the chance to answer as Meilin ran out of the room. He clutched the ticket in his hand tightly. "Thank-you Meilin." he whispered into the air.

The plane landed in a Japanese airport and Madison was there to pick Syaoran up. "Boy, is Sakura going to be ecstatic when she sees him" she giggled to herself. Syaoran was puzzled with the strange feeling in his heart that wasn't as eager to see Sakura as he thought he would be. He shook the feeling off and blamed it on being nervous.

Madison opened the door to her mansion, which was pretty small to Syaoran was pretty normal since he was also from a very wealthy family. "Sakura is in my room," she said to him, "I invited her over for a sleep over. Why don't you go up and join her while I get some drinks?"

Syaoran knew she was just leaving them alone because she had maids to get drinks for her. He chuckled to himself.
