Coming Back To You
Chapter 02 - Surprised To See Me?
"AHH! I'm late!" Sakura quickly changed clothes. Kero, as always, was playing a new game Sakura bought him, King of Fighters or something like that.. "Why didn't you wake me up Kero-chan?!"
"Well, I tried but you just threw me on the wall!" Kero answered showing a bandage on his head. Sakura sweetdropped. If she kept like that, Kero would seriously have some mental problem. Well... additional mental problems.
"It's the last day of school and I'm late! Bye!" She rushed downstairs.
"Some habits will never change." Kero sweatdropped. Sakura was the most powerful magician in the world, able to forsee the future in her dreams and has the purest soul you could find. Yet, doing things on time wasn´t exactly her strong point.
*******
Running to the table as always, Sakura greeted everybody and started eating her breakfast. Touya saw his chance and grinned. Sakura, as if she had some kind of smirking-finder device, immediatelly glared her older brother. Not only that, she gave the death-look and that really meant problems for the victims. Touya gulped and turned back to his food. Better he eat this food than the hospital ones...
Yukito and Fujitaka laughed at scene before their eyes but were surprised anyway. Sakura acted like herself again and that was really good. But, they didn't knew why... Well, who cares?
Eating in a world-record speed, Sakura put her roller-blades and quickly skated to her school.
*Strange, I feel more cheered up today. Something good might happen.*
She knew she was a bit late but she couldn't help it. She just needed to slow down a bit to watch in amusement the beautiful cherry-blossom trees. Being winter, there wasn´t a trace of a single cherry-blossom flower in the trees... But it´s nothing that Sakura couldn´t overcome. Silently she called over The Flower Card and asked it to fill the trees with flowers... That would give a nice atmosphere for any person who would pass there.
"I wonder how someone like me could ever receive a name so beautiful like 'Sakura'". She looked at her watch. "Oh my God! I have to speed up or I'll arrive really late!"
*******
Sakura just made a miracle. Ten seconds before the start of the class. Silence fell on the classroom and they slowly approached Sakura. How can possibly Sakura arrive on time? Sakura just sweatdropped. She really needed to change her habits.
"Good morning everybody. Oh Kinomoto-san, you arrived in time! Congratulations!" Terada Yoshiyuki, Sakura´s teacher, said smiling. "I'll put a positive mark in your report."
"Hoeeee." Sakura blushed in embarrassment. Was she really THAT late person? Yes, she was.
The class laughed. Terada was their teacher since 4th grade and all of them considered him as the best. He was always happy and eager to help his students.
Yamazaki Takashi stood up and pointed his index finger up. "Did you know that a long time ago in Rome, teachers used to be called. Ow!" Takashi´s story was abruptly cut by Mihara Chiharu´s punch on his head.
"I said stop telling lies!" Everybody sweatdropped.
Takashi and Chiharu have known each other since kindergarden. Their relationship resumes in Takashi usually telling stories with obscure facts which eventually turn into lies so blatantly false that only Sakura and Syaoran are gullible enough to believe and Chiharu hitting him in anyway possible, using her no-lies mallet or even her bare hands. Their behavior near each other make obvious they are very close persons. Unlike Chiharu, Takashi is very good on cooking, gyms, studying and even knitting. Everytime Chiharu tries to please him cooking or making a gift, Takashi take this as a chance to tease her and usually ends being strangled by his oldest friend. You can see them going on dates eventually. Takashi likes Chiharu. Chiharu likes Takashi. Even so, they are just too shy to admit it...
"Hey, hey. It's not time for flirting now..." Sasaki Rika, another Sakura´s close friend, said.
Chiharu and Takashi blushed and turned away. Rika smiled at her successful attemp of calming down both before the war started.
"Thanks for you help Rika-san." Her teacher smiled.
"I-it was nothing Terada-sensei." Rika blushed at her teacher.
"Does Rika still likes him?" Sakura whispered to her best friend.
"Yes and looks like he likes her too." Tomoyo giggled.
Little did they know that secretly the were engaged and dating.
"Okay. Let's start the class now." The classroom was finally in silence. "Well, I know that today is the last day before the vacation, but still, we have a new student and I'm sure you'll remember him from the 4th grade, when he first entered in the school. He is from Hong Kong and we decided to accept him in the last day because he'll be the new Math tutor for this class. Please look for him if you wish to ask any doubts involving Math."
Sakura's eyes widened. "Could be... he?" Tomoyo smiled and took her camera out.
"Please, come in. Syaoran Li!" The door opened and a boy with brown messy hair and amber eyes walked to Terada.
Syaoran Li was the same since he left Tomoeda. Always with a serious look on his face, he used to give student the impression he was a cold boy, with no emotions. But that changed after meeting the Card Mistress. Now, his face wore the same look but in a way softer which people found more inviting... Doesn´t have to be too smart to know he made lots of friends in Japan. He grew a bit taller and his body showed that he have trained in the meantime.
"Li-san, could you sit behind Kinomoto-san?" Syaoran nodded and walked to his old place. But before he could reach it, Sakura jumped and hugged him tightly making poor Syaoran flush. "S- Sakura?".
"Syaoran-kun, I've missed you..." Realizing what she just did, Sakura released him and saw everybody looking at her. She blushed more than ever. "Hoeeee..."
"That's okay. I missed you too." He smiled.
"HOE?!" Sakura and the entire classroom were REALLY surprised. They couldn't believe he had actually smiled. (A/N: Ok, ok! It isn't THAT rare but it's MY fanfic!)
"That was a great recording!" Tomoyo giggled.
"Tomoyo-chan!" Sakura yelled.
Everybody was laughing again except for a blushing Sakura and Syaoran.
*******
Now everybody was in their places. Trigonometry was the lesson of the day. Sakura wasn´t so found in Math, specially at the difficult parts... She usually found herself daydreaming about the boy sitting behind her.
*I can't believe he's back! He. smiled to me! He's so cute.* Sakura was on lalala land.
The bell rang (A/N: You know, that classical tune of the school bell from any anime?).
"Okay, you can go have your break." Terada said.
"Haaaaai."
*******
Syaoran was the center of the attention. Everybody was welcoming (A/N: Does this word exist? ^ ^ ) him and asking him for some help in Math. Sakura wanted to talk with Syaoran, but there was a crowd around him so she just sat with Tomoyo.
Takashi started telling his lies againd Chihary was "forced" to choke him, getting the attention of the students. Using the opportunity, he walked where Sakura and Tomoyo were eating. Sakura looked a bit sad...
"Excuse me ladies, can I eat with you?" he played.
Sakura face lit up. "Sure!"
He sat down. "Thanks. Hey Sakura, are you okay?"
"Why do you ask?" She asked smiling.
"I thought I saw that you with sad face a few seconds ago."
"No. it was just your imagination." She reassured him.
"Want some? I brought too much food." Syaoran asked opening his food box, full of Chinese delicious food.
"No, thanks. I'm full." Tomoyo smiled.
"I want! I'm still hungry!" Sakura said happily.
Syaoran put the food in her mouth. Tomoyo giggled at her friends acting like a couple. They blushed and quickly turned away. Tomoyo´s mind was working at full capacity. She didn't know why did Syaoran came back and that actually didn´t matter. That was the perfect opportunity to make Sakura confess what she fells for Syaoran AND in the same time, be able to record it all. NEVER she would lose this golden chance. NEVER.
"Hey, why don't we go to the park after the class? So we can tell Li-kun the news since he went back to Hong Kong." Tomoyo suggested.
"Good idea. And you can call me Syaoran, Daidouji-san." Syaoran answered.
"And you can call me Tomoyo, Syaoran-kun." She smiled
"Okay, it´s set then!" Sakura smiled.
The bell rang and they rushed to the class.
*******
In the classroom, Sakura wasn't really paying attention to the teacher. She was gazing deeply on her partner Syaoran. They have been paired to do a Math activity. She was hearing every word he said trying to explain her the activity. But she wasn't trying to understand what he was saying, she just wanted to hear his voice.
"Kinomoto-san." she didn't answer.
"Kinomoto-saaaaaaan..." still didn't answer.
"KINOMOTO-SAN!"
"HOEEE?!" Sakura jumped and saw Terada in front her.
"Will you stop looking at Li-kun and pay attention on what he SAYS? He's trying to explain you the activity." The classroom was filled with laugher.
"Gomen." Sakura said looking at Syaoran with sorry eyes, blushing.
"Don't worry. I can explain it to you how many times you want." Syaoran said trying not to blush.
"Thanks!" She smiled.
"She's beautiful." he whispered. Tomoyo heard it and smiled making Syaoran blush. *Well, better Tomoyo-chan than someone else.* His face was met by a video-recored in the hand of his smiling friend. *Think twice Syaoran...*
After some minutes the bell rang.
"All right, I wish you all a great Christmas and a happy New Year.!" Terada smiled.
"Syaoran-kun, Tomoyo-chan, let's go!" Sakura said happily.
*******
In the park.
Syaoran, Sakura and Tomoyo were sitting on a bench.
"I'll buy you all ice creams." Syaoran left the girls.
"So Sakura-chan, when are you telling Syaoran-kun? You're so lucky that he came back!"
"I don't know." Sakura made a sad face. "I don't even know if he still loves me after he left without an answer."
"Don't worry about that. I'm sure that he still loves you. Who can't love you?"
Sakura sweatdropped "I hope so. I want to tell this to Syaoran-kun soon."
"Tell me what?"
Tomoyo and Sakura jumped as they saw Syaoran behind them holding three ice-creams.
"Tell me what?" he asked again.
"Uh. about. about we are happy that you decided to come back to Tomoeda and hang out with us! Yeah that's it!" Sakura said and Tomoyo nervously (sp?) nodded.
Syaoran sweatdropped confused. He was sure that it had nothing to do with that but shoved it away. Trying to get an information from Sakura AND Tomoyo together? No chance.
When Sakura was about to eat her ice cream, it felt on the ground. She was about to cry. Syaoran gently offered his which Sakura glady ate. Tomoyo smiled at the "unofficial couple", as she had secretly nicknamed them. Syaoran smiled watching Sakura slowly eat the ice- cream and eventually offering him some bites. She was so cute... Tomoyo nudged him lightly.
"My my, what a gentleman!" Tomoyo joked, but Syaoran decided to ignore. He knew it's never wise to get in an argument war with Tomoyo. It's a human law, you always lose. Everytime he would try to argue with Tomoyo, she would ALWAYS come up with and answer that would leave him and Sakura embarrassed.
After eating the ice creams, they were walking again.
"Say Syaoran-kun. Why did you come back? Not that I didn't like it!"
"That's okay... I came back because both my family and I knew that if I stayed in Hong Kong, I would be miserable because I missed too much Tomoeda. In Hong Kong I lived with a powerful and respected family... But this was the reason that other people were afraid of getting close to me... I don't have any friends back there... That's why they let me live here." Syaoran said with a low voice, as if he was sad but neither Tomoyo or Sakura noticed.
"So are living here for good?" Tomoyo asked.
"Hai"
"Yay!!!" Sakura hugged Syaoran. "I'm so happy!"
"Me too Sakura, me too..." he looked to the sky *And you don't know how much...*
*******
It was almost night and they were hungry, REALLY hungry (well, at least Sakura -_-U ).
"Let's eat there. Their food is great!" Tomoyo suggested.
"Anywhere that sells food is okay for me. Is it okay to you Syaoran- kun?"
"Sure."
They all sat and waited for the waiter. (AN: wait for a waiter? ^ ^ )
"Oh, it's Tomoyo-chan, the kaijuu and the gaki! When did you come back?" Touya teased, "What do you want to eat?"
"I'm not a kaijuu and he's not a gaki!" She stomped on Touya's foot.
Syaoran blushed hearing Sakura protecting him. It was always the opposite.
"Just do your job!" Sakura frowned but when she looked at Syaoran, he and Touya were already having their classical glaring contest.
Touya was Syaoran's nº 1 enemy in Japan. He would never forgive him for the first day they met, when Syaoran was trying to take the Clow Cards from Sakura. This was one of the reasons for his anger. The other one was his "sister-complex" thing as Yukito would say. He KNEW Syaoran liked Sakura and he KNEW that Sakura also liked him... But there was no chance that he would let the gaki "take" Sakura away from him.
"Stop you two!" Sakura sweatdropped, "We'll want three orange juices and three fried rices."
"All right. I'll be back in a minute. If you hurt the kaijuu, I'll kill you gaki!"
"I'M NOT A KAIJUU!" Sakura hit Touya's head.
"Damit! Don't you see that I'm never going to hurt her?" Syaoran yelled.
Sakura blushed and Touya frown deepened.
Touya was going to argue back but Sakura was faster. "Oniichan! Don't! Get our food RIGHT NOW or I'll tell your boss you're not being nice with your costumers." Sakura smiled evilly. Touya gulped and started walking away.
*Did he really mean that? Does he still love me?* She smiled *I hope so. I want to tell him my true feelings.*
*Ugh! Baka! You just gave away that you still love her! BAKA!* He thought. He saw Tomoyo giggling and Sakura in deep thought. He sighed, *Thank God she's dense... unlike Tomoyo-chan.*
Touya brought their food and gave Syaoran his classical don't-get- near-my-sister-look while Syaoran just frowned.
After eating, they headed back to the park. The day was coming to an end.
*******
They sat on a bench to watch the sunset. There were only them around. Everything seemed to be so quiet and peaceful. Birds were still chirping on the trees. Also, you could hear ducks in the nearby lake. For a moment they stood in silence. There was no moe beautiful sounds than the nature's one. The wind was breezing softly at their faces.
"This is so beautiful.!" Sakura said.
"Un." Syaoran replied.
"Syaoran-kun?" Sakura looked to him.
"Nani?"
"I want to thank you for today. I really had a great time!" She smiled.
"No problem. Having Tomoyo-chan and you as company was really great." He answered. "I've been out from Japan for 6 months. I really needed to catch up things."
Sakura leaned her head on his shoulders. He was surprised but put his arm around the shoulder of the sleeping Sakura.
"Say Syaoran-kun."
"Hai?"
"When are telling her your feelings again?"
"I don't know. I don't want to pressure her. Rejection is the last I want. And see our friendship shatter would be worse. I won't never be able to make sure she loves me."
Tomoyo smiled. "You'll never know until you say that. I can assure you'll have a surprise. Why do you think she gave you a teddy bear and she calls the one you gave her 'Syaoran'?"
"Well, it was just a normal goodbye present and she calls mine Syaoran just because I gave her." He said.
"(sigh) Both of you are SO slow... I'm so tired... wanna sleep..." She felt asleep too.
He smiled looking at the two girls sleeping like babies.
*I better carry these two home. They're too tired to walk. Looks like they had a tiring day.* Syaoran laid Tomoyo on the bench leaving his coat as a pillow. Then, he caught Sakura on his arms and started walking in her house direction.

Coming Back To You
Chapter 02 - Surprised To See Me?
"AHH! I'm late!" Sakura quickly changed clothes. Kero, as always, was playing a new game Sakura bought him, King of Fighters or something like that.. "Why didn't you wake me up Kero-chan?!"
"Well, I tried but you just threw me on the wall!" Kero answered showing a bandage on his head. Sakura sweetdropped. If she kept like that, Kero would seriously have some mental problem. Well... additional mental problems.
"It's the last day of school and I'm late! Bye!" She rushed downstairs.
"Some habits will never change." Kero sweatdropped. Sakura was the most powerful magician in the world, able to forsee the future in her dreams and has the purest soul you could find. Yet, doing things on time wasn´t exactly her strong point.

Running to the table as always, Sakura greeted everybody and started eating her breakfast. Touya saw his chance and grinned. Sakura, as if she had some kind of smirking-finder device, immediatelly glared her older brother. Not only that, she gave the death-look and that really meant problems for the victims.

Yukito and Fujitaka laughed at scene before their eyes but were surprised anyway. Sakura acted like herself again and that was really good. But, they didn't knew why... Well, who cares?
Eating in a world-record speed, Sakura put her roller-blades and quickly skated to her school.

"I said stop telling lies!" Everybody sweatdropped.
Takashi and Chiharu have known each other since kindergarden.

The bell rang (A/N: You know, that classical tune of the school bell from any anime?).

*******
It was almost night and they were hungry, REALLY hungry (well, at least Sakura -_-U ).
"Let's eat there. Their food is great!" Tomoyo suggested.
"Anywhere that sells food is okay for me. Is it okay to you Syaoran- kun?"
"Sure."
They all sat and waited for the waiter. (AN: wait for a waiter? ^ ^ )
"Oh, it's Tomoyo-chan, the kaijuu and the gaki! When did you come back?" Touya teased, "What do you want to eat?"
"I'm not a kaijuu and he's not a gaki!" She stomped on Touya's foot.
Syaoran blushed hearing Sakura protecting him. It was always the opposite.

"I'M NOT A KAIJUU!" Sakura hit Touya's head.
"Damit! Don't you see that I'm never going to hurt her?" Syaoran yelled.
Sakura blushed and Touya frown deepened.
Touya was going to argue back but Sakura was faster. "Oniichan! Don't! Get our food RIGHT NOW or I'll tell your boss you're not being nice with your costumers." Sakura smiled evilly. Touya gulped and started walking away.
*Did he really mean that? Does he still love me?* She smiled *I hope so. I want to tell him my true feelings.*
*Ugh! Baka! You just gave away that you still love her! BAKA!* He thought. He saw Tomoyo giggling and Sakura in deep thought. He sighed, *Thank God she's dense... unlike Tomoyo-chan.*
Touya brought their food and gave Syaoran his classical don't-get- near-my-sister-look while Syaoran just frowned.
After eating, they headed back to the park. The day was coming to an end.
*******
They sat on a bench to watch the sunset. There were only them around. Everything seemed to be so quiet and peaceful. Birds were still chirping on the trees. Also, you could hear ducks in the nearby lake. For a moment they stood in silence. There was no moe beautiful sounds than the nature's one. The wind was breezing softly at their faces.
"This is so beautiful.!" Sakura said.
"Un." Syaoran replied.
"Syaoran-kun?" Sakura looked to him.
"Nani?"
"I want to thank you for today. I really had a great time!" She smiled.
"No problem. Having Tomoyo-chan and you as company was really great." He answered. "I've been out from Japan for 6 months. I really needed to catch up things."
Sakura leaned her head on his shoulders. He was surprised but put his arm around the shoulder of the sleeping Sakura.
"Say Syaoran-kun."
"Hai?"
"When are telling her your feelings again?"
"I don't know. I don't want to pressure her. Rejection is the last I want. And see our friendship shatter would be worse. I won't never be able to make sure she loves me."
Tomoyo smiled. "You'll never know until you say that. I can assure you'll have a surprise. Why do you think she gave you a teddy bear and she calls the one you gave her 'Syaoran'?"
"Well, it was just a normal goodbye present and she calls mine Syaoran just because I gave her." He said.
"(sigh) Both of you are SO slow... I'm so tired... wanna sleep..." She felt asleep too.
He smiled looking at the two girls sleeping like babies.
*I better carry these two home. They're too tired to walk. Looks like they had a tiring day.* Syaoran laid Tomoyo on the bench leaving his coat as a pillow. Then, he caught Sakura on his arms and started walking in her house direction.
