DISCLAIMER: I don't own CCS or anything...CLAMP does, so don't sue me. I'm poor and if I did have money, I would be saving it for something else.
yeah! a longer chapter! okay, there's a sad part later on in the chapter (kinda), soooooo...on with the reading!
"E...Eriol?!" Syaoran shouted as he jumped out of his seat.
The stewardess said, "Sir, please remain in your seat."
Syaoran sat down and asked, "What are you doing here, Eriol?"
Eriol smiled, "The same reason why you're here."
"Ho...how di...never mind." 'Must've read my mind...'
Eriol asked, "Going to visit Sakura?"
Syaoran faintly blushed, "W...well, I'm just visiting..."
"Where's Meilin? Isn't she coming?"
"There weren't any seats left on this plane, so she's taking the plane that's leaving tomorrow morning."
"So...my cute descendant, has Sakura tell you her true feelings yet?"
Syaoran gritted his teeth when he heard Eriol call him his cute descendant.
"No..." Syaoran managed to say. 'He's lucky that there are so many people here. Otherwise, I would have...'
"Not a chance." Eriol said, smiling.
Syaoran shouted, "You know, it's not right to read people's minds like that!"
The stewardess said, "Sir, please, don't shout. There are some people here trying to sleep!"
Syaoran had a huge sweat-drop on his head as he saw distressed people looking at him.
"G...gomen...nasai." Syaoran said as he sat down.
Eriol said, "Well, I'm tired (yawns) goodnight, Syaoran."
Syaoran mumbled something in Chinese and went to sleep, far from Eriol.
*Tomorrow morning in Japan*
"Sakura!"
Sakura turned around and saw Hui walking up to her.
"Ohayo Hui!"
"Ohayo Sakura."
"So, what do you want?"
"Do you want to practice our lines? Mr. Hokaoi has been really stressed about this scene for awhile. I think that we should be ready and do our best for him."
"Okay! Oh, no..."
"What is it?"
"I promised Tomoyo that I will help her with the decorations this morning."
*flashback*
"Sakura, could you help me with the decorations for the dance, in the movie, today?" 'I'm not leaving her with Hui today. Who knows what he'll try to do next."
"Okay, Tomoyo."
"That's great! Oh! Remember to bring the Create and Flower Card, okay?"
"Okay."
*flashback ends*
"Oh." Hui said, disappointed. 'Everything would have gone exactly the way I planned if Tomoyo wasn't in the way.'
Tomoyo smiled as she saw Sakura approaching her.
"Sakura! Did you bring the cards?" Tomoyo asked as she looked around. "Nobody's around."
Sakura nodded her head. "The key that holds the power of the stars. Reveal your true form to me. I, Sakura, commands thee under convert. Release!" (AN: Yea! I didn't use the dubbed incantations!)
Sakura pulled out two cards and threw them into the air, "Create Card! Decorate the gym! Flower Card! Help Create!" Sakura spoke quietly so that other people won't hear.
Afterwards, the whole gym was decorated in white, pink, and blue. Near the entrance, there were big puffy clouds with small fairies flying around. The dance floor was filled with stars and comets. There was also a smoke machine that produced smoke on the floor.
Tomoyo asked, "What did the Flower Card do?"
Sakura smiled, "You'll see later."
"Okay..."
Sakura said, "Tomoyo? (sighs) You can say it."
"KAWAII NE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Okay people! This is the BIG SCENE! I should see the BEST out of you people! Ready? ACTION!"
*movie*
Kenji asked his friends, "How do I look? I don't want to look stupid."
One of them said, "Ohohohoho! You getting feelings for her?"
"No!" Kenji said, controlling his blush.
Another said, "Don't worry man! You look okay! All we have to worry is her."
Everybody burst into laughter, but Kenji.
One of his friends nudged Kenji in the elbow. "Hey, what's wrong with you?"
Kenji said, "Nothing. (sighs) Hey! That's a good one!" Kenji laughed along with them.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Kenji sat nervously in his car as he argued with himself.
'"Hey man! What's wrong with you? Go up to her house and ring the doorbell!"
"Yeah! Go!"
"Not unless you have feelings for her..."
"Ohohohohohohoho."
Kenji said, "Okay, okay! I'm going!"
Kenji walked awkwardly towards Suki's house and rang the doorbell.
He heard somebody walk up to the door and open it.
"Who are you?" A male voice said. It was a little boy with messy brown hair and jade green eyes.
"I'm Kenji and I'm waiting for your...um...sister."
"SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUKKKKKKKKKKKKKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Suki yelled from her room, "Be right there in a minute!"
Suki's mom walked up to Kenji and said, "Come on, Kenji. We'll wait for her in the living room."
"Okay Mrs. Li." Kenji said as he followed her.
*in the living room*
Mrs. Li began, "You know, Suki has been very excited about this for a long time and I appreciate that you're going to be her date. Suki had a hard time moving here and adjusting to her classmates."
"Where was she born?"
"Originally, she lived in China. She had so many friends there, but we had to move for job purposes. I think she's starting to get the hang of Japan thanks to you. There were so many nights when she cried and cried about China and her friends. She still writes to them though."
"I...I didn't know that."
"Well, some people just need to take the time to know Suki better. They'll come to understand that there's more that appearances." Mrs. Li said as she stood up.
Kenji stood up with her. They walked over to the main stairway and waited for Suki.
"Ar...arigato." Mrs. Li whispered.
"You're welcome."
Suki announced, "I'm ready!" She walked slowly down the stairs with Kenji in awe.
Kenji was speechless. 'I...is...that really...S...Suki?'
"Hello to you too." Suki said, giggling.
Kenji took her hand and put a corsage on her wrist. The corsage was a simple cherry blossom with pink ribbons flowing from it.
"Shall...w...we...go?"
"Okay." Suki said as she smiled.
As they walked out of the house, Kenji's friends looked out of the window in amazement.
"Wow! She's soooooooo different!"
A girl said, "I looooooooove her dress."
"What a babe!"
*in the gym*
Kenji and Suki sat by the punch table, not talking to each other for awhile.
When a song began, Suki said, "Um...Kenji? Do you wanna dance?"
Kenji blushed, "O...okay."
*music playing*
Here we are alone again,
In your arms again
And it keeps on getting better
What I don't need
To read your mind
Cause when I look in your eyes
I can almost see forever
Suki had her arms around Kenji and her eyes were closed. Kenji's arms were around her waist.
Suki whispered, "Thank you for coming with me."
"You're welcome..."
But before you go too far,
Before I fall too fast,
Baby, you should know
Why I need love that's gonna last
You gotta promise to be here
Through the laughter and the tears
Let me know that you're my everyday, every night
Kenji's eyes filled with tears as he heard the lyrics. They have been living with lies and Kenji was ashamed of it. 'I'll tell her soon...I just hope that she'll understand...I really...truly...l...love...h...her'
Cause there just no other way to love me
Take my heart,
Take my soul,
Baby, never let me go
No, there just no other way to love me
That's the way it should be
If you're gonna fall in love with me
Cause there just no other way to love me
Let me show you how much I care
And baby I swear
I'll be right there when you need me
But I gotta know
That you'll always be true
That you're gonna see this through
And give your heart completely
I wanna feel it when we kiss
Believe it when we touch
Baby, don't just say you love me
Cause words are not enough
I wanna see it in your eyes
Believe it deep inside
Gotta know you'll be here
Everyday, every night
Suki said slowly, "I'm...glad...that I found you. My life was a mess before I met you. I was so depressed and everybody was making fun of me. It made me feel like I was nothing..."
Kenji felt regret when he heard her.
"Thank you for not being like them. I can tell that you have a kind heart."
Cause there just no other way to love me
Take my heart,
Take my soul,
Baby, never let me go
No, there just no other way to love me
That's the way it should be
If you're gonna fall in love with me
Cause there just no other way to love me
I would never ask for more
Than I give to you
Gonna give my everything
But I gotta know that your heart is true
Everyday, every night
For the rest of your life
Cause there just no other way to love me
Take my heart,
Take my soul,
Baby, never let me go
No, there just no other way to love me
That's the way it should be
If you're gonna fall in love with me
Cause there just no other way
Just no other way to love me
Take my heart,
Take my soul,
Baby, never let me go
No, there just no other way to love me
That's the way it should be
If you're gonna fall in love with me
Cause there just no other way to love me
*a new song starts*
When every moment gets too hard
The end of the road can feel so far
No matter how much time we're apart
I'm always near you
I'll be the shelter in your rain
Help you to find your smile all over again
I'll make you laugh back of broken heart
Wherever you are
Don't never gonna walk away
If it was come down someday
All alone and you feel afraid
Be there when you call my name
You can always depend on me
I believe until forever ends
I will be your friend
I will be your friend
Suki said, "Kiraru and I (sobs) used to (sobs) used to (voice breaks) hear this all the time."
"Kiraru?"
"She was my (sobs) BEST friend back in China...This song...this song was a sign of our friendship..."
"Oh...I didn't know that...Come on...let's go outside."
So many people come and go
But nothing can change that
You, I know
You'll never be just a face in the crowd
And time will show through
The seasons and the years
I will always hold you dear
Ever you feel
*music fades as they leave*
When they got outside, they sat on the bench.
Kenji gave Suki a handkerchief, "Here, don't cry..."
Suki smiled and took the handkerchief, "Arigato..."
*music plays in the background*
Hearing in the night light
And angel while I'm sleeping
I feel your arms around me
But sadly I'm just dreaming
Kenji looked Suki in the eye and started to said, "S...Suki..."
Suki looked at Kenji, but didn't say anything.
I stare into the darkness
And hope to find you waitin
But I know that it's useless
I'm just hallucinating
"I...I mean...um..." Kenji stammered as his face turned red.
"What is it?"
And I swear, that love is indicting
I give him my world
For you I come running
And I swear, that I have it all
Then tell me why I can't stop thinking of you
It's your word that I hear
It's your touch that I feel
And your love comes to me
Every time I think of you
Oh my dreams are so real
And I know that you'll lead
And you'll see what I feel
Every time I think of you
"Well...I...A...ashi..."
"Kenji! Man!"
Kenji looked behind him. 'Oh no...'
His drunk friends were walking up to Kenji with smiles on their faces.
"Whatcha (hiccups) doing?"
Kenji looked at Suki and then back at his friends, "I was just talking to Suki."
"Hey! (hiccups) Suki! You look (hiccups) great!"
Kenji frowned, "What are you doing here? I'm trying to tell her something." He whispered.
"You're going to (hiccups) tell her that this (hiccups) is all lies?"
"That we (hiccups) dared you to go out with her?"
Suki stood up with a frown on her face. "Kenji? Is that true? Its it?!"
"Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohehehehehehehehe...."
"Come on (hiccups) we don't want to stand here and see them (hiccups) especially when SUKI is mad." They walked off laughing.
Than tell me why I can't stop thinking of you
It's your word that I hear
It's your touch that I feel
And your love comes to me
Every time I think of you
Oh my dreams are so real
And I know that you'll lead
And you'll see what I feel
Every time I think of you
*music fades away*
"Do you mean that..." Suki said, frowning.
"Don't believe them! They're drunk..." Kenji said.
Suki said, "You know what? The only thing that I learned from you is that you're a very bad liar."
"Suki..."
"No...I understand I was a DARE. I mean NOTHING to you. How could I have been so BLIND? And to THINK that you were nice and NOTHING like them! I was so damn STUPID to think that this was going to be SOME magical night and everything would be like a dream."
Kenji's heart felt like it was stabbed by a large knife listening to her words.
"YOU...you are just like everybody else. Just...just leave me alone, okay? You got your wish...so leave me alone." Suki said, walking away.
As Sakura walked away, she felt a little dizzy and wanted to sit down.
"CUT! Are you okay Sakura?" Mr. Hokaoi asked as he ran up to Sakura.
"I'm...just a little diz...zy..." Sakura collapsed onto the bench.
"SAKURA-CHAN!!!!!" Tomoyo yelled as she ran up to Sakura.
When Tomoyo got to Sakura, there another person sitting on the ground with Sakura in his lap.
"Is she alright?" Tomoyo asked, not looking at the young man.
Hui walked to Sakura's side and looked at her, "Are you sure?"
"Yeah."
Tomoyo had this weird feeling, so she looked at the man's face, "Sy...Syaoran?!"
