*Chapter 1: Feelings Go Poof*
~*~ Flashback ~*~
In the audience, Eriol had just pulled out a Clow Card. A certain purple- haired girl asked," Is this really necessary?"
"Afraid so." At that precise moment, somewhere in the crowd, the emotion card had just changed the feelings of a certain amber-eyed boy for his cherry blossom into those for a girl who hadn't arrived yet.
~*~ End Flashback ~*~
"And the winner of this year's singing contest is… Sakura Kinomoto!" Cheers were heard as Sakura walked on stage to receive the prize. "I'd like to thank all my friends, Tomoyo for making this dress for me, the girls for cheering me on, and my boyfriend, Li Syaoran, for supporting me all the way." The MC's voice started again as soon as she left the stage, "Now, the moment you've all been waiting for. The announcement of the prom queen and king. …This year's royal couple is… Li Syaoran and Sakura Kinomoto!" Our lovely couple walked up onto stage; Sakura was beaming with pleasure, eyes sparkling. Until she noticed her boyfriend's uneasy look. She whispered to him, "I know you're nervous." And gave his hand a light squeeze. But he wasn't nervous. It just didn't feel right.
After the Prom, S+S & E+T went for a post-graduation celebration at a French restaurant. Only Eriol knew beforehand that they were going to a French restaurant. He knew that his 'cute descendant' hated escargot and would strongly object to going to a French restaurant. He also knew that if he told Sakura, she'd tell Syaoran, and if he told Tomoyo, she will tell Sakura and she would tell Syaoran.
They got settled down at their table after waiting a long time for the computer-illiterate waiter to check their reservations. However, the moment Syaoran saw the menu, not to mention the word escargot, in big, bold letters (A/N It's the Dinner Special for that night…And yes. He knows what that 'E' word means) "HIIRAGIZAWA (Is this the right spelling?) !! WHAT THE G*D-D***ED F***IN' H**L DO YOU THINK YOU"RE DOING??!!", the ex-calm-looking- boy-who-was-looking-through-the-menu-just-a-moment-ago exploded. "Why, all I'm doing is bringing my friends who have just graduated beside me on a nice treat at a nice restaurant." Eriol replied, flashing his I'm-so- innocent-even-though-I-just-did-something-to-my-cute-descendant-that-could- get-me-killed smile. "YOU KNOW DAMN STRAIGHT WHAT I MEAN!"
"No I don't."
"LOOK AT THE DINNER SPECIAL!"
"So it's snails, what about it?"
"I HATE SNAILS!!"
Sakura decided to end this once and for all,"Syaoran, you can order something else you know." Dinner went on uninterrupted after that except for a few grumbles from Syaoran about how Eriol was a 'bleeding dumbass' and how 'no one should ever trust him being the evil git he was'.
After dinner, the two couples split up to walk the girls home. S+S walked home in silence. On the way, Syaoran suddenly remembered how he didn't feel right around Sakura anymore. ^What happened? I used to get all 'floaty' around her. Now I don't even blush when she holds my hand. Damn! It doesn't even feel right to even touch her anymore.^ "Helloooo… Syaoran? Hello? Syaoran, are you there?" Syaoran saw a hand waving in front of him. "Uh… Yeah I'm here" "We're at my house already." Sakura said. "Umm… OK. Seeyoutomorrowthen." He said really fast, pecked her quickly on the cheek and ran off. "Man, is he acting weird." Sakura muttered as she walked in. She crept upstairs, careful not to wake otou-san, onii-chan or Kero.
A few days passed, Syaoran getting more uncomfortable each day. He wouldn't return her hugs, kiss her or hold her hand on his own free will. One day, he finally found the courage to… (dum dum dum duuuuuum) break up. He called her and told her to meet him at the usual meeting place in the park under her favourite cherry blossom tree at seven p.m. that night. She sensed something was wrong, not by magic, but by instinct. There was also a note of uncertainty in his voice.
After dinner that night, she grabbed the new roller-blades Tomoyo had given her. They were actually platform sandals, which had broader straps than usual and that went above her ankle. If you slide the sole off, four little balls (A/N I'm not talkin' 'bout that kinda balls you hentais!) popped out and there, you've got roller-blades. She slipped them on, and rushed to the park, almost running over a stray cat.
Syaoran, in the park already, was getting uneasy. ^Maybe I should see what happens after a few days. Maybe I'm just going through some weird stage in the process of 'growing up'. Maybe…… I'm using too much of the word 'maybe' (A/N Sorry! Couldn't help but put that in). Maybe I really should leave and see how this turns out. Yeah. That's what I'm gonna do…… Uh-oh. Too late.^ He thought as he saw a sweaty & panting Sakura rushing over. "You pant wanted to pant tell me pant something?" She panted with hair plastered to her face by sweat while pushing the wheels of her blades back in and sliding the sole back to its original position. "Umm… Yeah… I… (A/N I'm not going to write his whole speech for three reasons: 1) I can't think of anything i.e. his reasons, explanations, yadda, yadda, yadda. 2) Even if I could, it would be bloody sad & I dun want you guys crying on your keyboards and screwing them up. 3) All you S+S fans out there would probably slaughter me if I wrote too much about their breakup, but hey, I assure you, I'm an S+S fan too, probably the biggest coz I usually refuse to read fics where they are coupled with other pple) ……Maybe we should (dum dum dum duuuuuuuum *thunder roars, lightning flashed*) break up." They were silent for a while and then Sakura whispered, soft as a mouse, "You're kidding, right?" He looked downwards and whispered back, "We could still be friends." Another period of silence, longer than the previous one. Then, Sakura let loose a huge sob as tears started pouring (A/N Literally, ya know in those animes when pple cry, there are these 'streams' of tears pouring out of their eyes?) out of her eyes. She then quickly pulled the soles off her shoes in record time and bladed off.
She decided to take the shortcut home that only she and Syaoran knew off. She told him about it because he had asked her how she broke her leg after she had made a miscalculation and jumped off too late. Anyway, it's this convex slope, almost parallel to the ground at the top and almost perpendicular to the ground at the bottom, right behind her house that links to the park. She blades down, and at the right moment, jumps over the fence and she's in her backyard. By the time she was over the fence, her wrist-guards were soaked through with the tears she wiped off with them. She, still crying, decided to climb in through her bedroom window, so as not to wake her family up. She put the soles off her shoes back and started to climb up the cherry blossom tree in her backyard. When she got up, she suddenly remembered locking her bedroom window to prevent Kero from coming out and spying on her. Thus, she sat in her tree, surrounded by her namesake, thought ^Life is definitely not going the way I want it to^, and cried herself to sleep.
