Chapter3- Love Is In The Air
Sakura...
The dance progressed beautifully without a hitch, this night would be etched in my mind for all eternity.
After our first kiss on the dance floor, we went to the side to speak with Tomoyo who was overjoyed by it all until
her own prince charming literally swept her off her feet to dance with him. I was so happy Eriol and Tomoyo found each
other, they were always smiling and blushing near each other, much like Syaoran and I now that I think of it. It was a
beautiful sight, truly magnificant, nothing could spoil such an evening...so I thought...
I hadnt realized someone came over to us as I watched my best friend dance with the love of her life. It seemed someone
had tapped Syaoran on the shoulder. Jason O Reilly. He and Tomoyo used to go out until she dumped him for Eriol not
too longago. Apparently he claimed he went out with Tomoyo to get closer to me. I of course wasn't interested. He
eventually asked me out, but I of course declined, my heart was already full...
Even though I hadnt realized my feelings for Syaoran, I knew in my heart Jason was not the one and never would be.
"Hey man, just what do you think your doing kissing MY girlfriend" Jason cried accusingly. He had spoken so loudly that
the music came to an abrupt hault. The teachers were handling another situation outside, apparently some kids had gotten
drunk and needed to call them cabs, so they had their hands full, we didnt realize it at the time but so did we.
"Jason, what are you talking about? Listen I know you've got this cryptic thing for Sakura but she s not interested so
please just go, have some punch, have a good time and let her have a good time with whomever she choses," replied Syaoran
in a soft yet assertive tone.
"Punch huh? Ok, sure", Jason turned to walk away and Syaoran turned to face me when suddenly Jason returned and knocked
Syaoran to the ground.
"SYAORAN!"
"Now come on Sakura, we need to go dance!"
"Jason! Let me go! I thought Syaoran made it clear to you, I am NOT interested in you, alright? Please leave!"
Everyone watched, a few chuckled in amusement at Jason's misfortunes.
He looked around nervously at the crowd and turned to flee, luckily for him Eriol came to hold Syaoran back from slicing
and dicing his ass.
"One day Sakura, you'll learn to love me...if not...you ll live to regret it...IF you live at all" Luckily for Jason,
Syaoran hadn't heard this comment.
"Syaoran, are you ok?"
It took him a moment to regain his composure, "Ya, Im fine Sakura, lets not let him spoil our evening ok?"
I smile and nod, as my adoration for him grows considerably. Tomoyo had stars in her eyes as the fairy tale as she calls
it continued. Eriol eventually snatched her away to make out with her to give us some privacy ..but then again neither
one of them complained.
"Sakura, I feel you need to know this", I look up at his face, slightly concerned for the bruise that began to show on his
jaw, he however dismissed it as nothing.
"Sakura, I 've loved you since I first met you...I was born to make you happy. I was born to find you. I was born to be
with you. I was born...to love you. I love you Sakura, and I promise to cherish you until the day that I die forsaking all
others. You are all I want, and nothing is ever, ever going to change that.
As if on cue, "All I Want" by Sky played in the background. I looked at him wide eyed, he gave me that "I had nothing to do with this"
look. Nevertheless it truly added to the moment...
There was a time not too long ago
When you and I were still believing
That we could make it on our own
But I was blind to our situation
I needed you more
More than I ever dreamed of
Thinking about you through all my lonely nights
Without you in these arms
I thee want...
I couldnt have been happier. I decided to speak as we swayed as one to the music.
"Syaoran...my love...I ve loved you since day one...I always hoped that one day I would find my prince charming and
evidently I have. I don't know if I found you, or if you found me, Syaoran, but I know...we found each other and nothing
will ever come between us because we are one...now and forever." I could have sworn I saw tears sparkling in his eyes.
It was a night neither one of us could ever, ever forget. We kissed softly on the dance floor wishing the entire world
would somehow, one day find the love we had.
All I want, all I ask of you
All I need is for you to be holding me forever
You're my superstar
And this love I will defend
'Til the day that we're together
I'll be missing you
Syaoran held me just a little bit closer, just a little bit tighter, I never wanted to be without him again. To think, so much
time passed where we kept to ourselves. What were we so afraid of? Was he afraid of me? Or was I afraid of him? Perhaps we feared for
each other...that such a step would destroy our growing friendship...which blossomed into love right before our eyes....
"Sakura" he spoke quietly only wanting me to hear. "Sakura Kinomoto, you make me so happy....You make my days incredibly bright,
there is never a situation too horrible that could destroy your beauty. You are truly a treasure and I promise to cherish you
until the last breath in my body...and long after that, because you are the one..you are my all...you are my everything..you
Sakura are the air that breathe and without you the world would be in peril....your smile guides us through the darkness even on
the darkest days, you my love are an angel, please accept this kiss and many more to come...let me show you how special you are to me"
I should have known that it was so hard to do
How could I've been away so long, so long without you
With or without anybody else
There's only you
Thinking about you through all my lonely nights
Without you in these arms
I thee want
I can't help but cry tears of pure happiness as he gently places his lips onto mine. Our tongues dancing with each other, our
lips melting together. This feels so right, nothing could be more right than this moment. Nothing could destroy his touch,
his smell, his body...his soul..."God, I love you Syaoran...I love all of you, faults and all. You are my world..and damn
Syaoran do you ever rock my world" I smirk evilly as he stiffles his laughter, this truly was the best night of my life.
I'm wondering if you're ever coming back
Take the time to show me you care
Too many lovers fall along the way
And I don't want to be alone
"Oh Syaoran" I sigh into his warm welcoming embrace "You are what I want, you are what I desire..."
'Til the day that we're together
I'll be missing you
"You Syaoran, are all I could I ever want, there will never be another you, you are irreplaceable."
I seal my promise with a sweet tender kiss that blows into a make out session filled with love, desire and happiness.
Nothing could destroy this night not even Jason....
********************************************************************************************
Eriol and Tomoyo eventually ended their make out session and took a walk finding themselves at the penguin park.
"Eriol, I ...think I'm falling in love with you," she said in all sincerity.
"Hm...You know what I think...I think I've been in love with you since "hello". I think, i THINK, that I fell for your
smile, your heart, your soul...you..all of you in a matter of mere seconds. I dont know why I never found the courage to
tell you all of that when I asked you out the first time."
Tomoyo's tears fell from her eyes, she would never love anyone as much as she loved him, no ..never. He was hers, she was
his...together, like Syaoran and Sakura, they were one...
********************************************************************************************
The night finally drew to a close as the gym soon became deserted as if the magical night had never taken place...but the
hearts of many would always keep this day near and dear to who they were, nothing would change that.
Sakura...
Syaoran and I were the last people to leave, so we thought. We couldn't bare to move. The very thought of it hurt my heart.
I never wanted to leave him. Even though the music ended, we continued to sway back and forth, in our own world where everything
was perfect, all was right with the world. All I knew was that his touch made me so happy. I just couldnt find the words
to express how I felt to him, I was just so complete with him. I felt so ....so....so....
"Complete." I moved my head up to meet his in astonishment. He and I spoke in unison. He and I, we were so right, everything
was so perfect. I never realized before this moment where I would be without him. He is the only one I desire for the simple reason
that he is not just some fling, not some boy I met at school that wants to kiss and tell...no this was something so beautiful
nothing could compare. I finally realize now after all these years...he...Syaoran....he completes me....
I feel tears rush out from my eyes, he looks at me, eyes filled with concern.
"Sakura...what is it?"
"My heart hurts Syaoran...because I know that at some point, I will become incomplete...the minute we let go...we're incomplete."
Syaoran's frown changes into a loving smile,"Your wrong Sakura. We will never be incomplete again. Our souls connected here on this dance floor,
in this gym, in our school where we first met, and I feel...different. You even look different. Our spirits joined together and are one.
He suddenly stops dancing and gently pulls me to the side.
"Syaoran?"
"Can't you see them Sakura...we..our bodies have stopped dancing and we are no longer holding on to each other, but still,
if you look close enough, you can see us, our souls still interwined in each other, swaying to the eternal song that will never end,
we will never stop dancing Sakura, our souls are complete there is no going back now. Look long enough and you will see us, listen
closely and you will hear us...go closely and you can touch us...smell the air, you can smell cherry blossoms...you can taste it Sakura,
you can taste the love in the air...
I never knew Syaoran could be so..so...so ...different. I finally saw the true Syaoran, his true self has finally surfaced,
I can honestly say love is definitely in the air.
Suddenly we hear clapping from the doorway...
"Oh beautiful Syaoran, absolutely beautiful, it brought tears to my eyes, really, I need a tissue. I mean that whole souls
still dancing to the what was it? "Eternal song?" please Syaoran, I never knew you were such a sucker for this crap.
I mean screw the dancing screw the mumbo jumbo, it's all a ploy to get her into bed with you! Right Sakura? Im sure your
so anxious to "become complete", what is that anyway? Complete? Your complete the day your born, you dont need someone else
to complete you, I mean honestly, if you bought in to that nonsense Sakura your an even bigger fool than I thought! Pretty soon
you ll see the real Syaoran, all he wants is sex. Isnt that right?"
Syaoran's eyes turned bright red with anger.
"I'm warning you Jason, if you EVER speak about her that way I ll knock out every single one of your teeth!"
"Please, Sakura loves me, she would never let you come near me."
"Don't be so sure Jason, you destroyed an extremely private, personal, emotional moment in time, a beautiful moment
we will never have the chance to share again.."
"What? Please Sakura, I bet he's got a whole book of poetry to throw at you, he's using you to be the most popular guy and
all that crap."
"Jason, you truly are an idiot if you can't understand him. He was sincere. I know him. I LOVE him. He completes me.
If you give a damn about me you ll show him some respect!"
"Sakura! Come on! Dont you remember how much of a jerk he was to you in the beginning? You were what, 10? He was trying
to bully you around, he was a royal jerk!"
"Ya well you know what he's changed. If you stand in the same river twice you may think it's the same but this is truly impossible,
the current changes all the time...."
"Oh my GOD he has brainwashed you! Damn Sakura! I love you and all, but you can really be a naive person...HELLO! RIVERS
SOULS STILL DANCING...PLEASE spare me!"
"Who asked you to eavesdrop Jase? Huh? Just go away, leave Sakura alone, she's made her choice..."
"Oh really? I dont think so!"
The next thing I knew was that I felt my arms practically rip off as Jason pulled me to him.
"Sakura!"
"Come on Sakura, baby, you owe me a dance!"
"LET ME GO JASON!"
"LET HER GO RIGHT NOW!"
"Or else what? You ll give me more crap about rivers, completeness and all that jazz, please, spare me!"
I yanked my arms away from him and hid behind my protector, my knight in shinning armor, my guardian angel, my Little Wolf.
Syaoran.
"Come on fight me Syaoran, prove to Sakura what a fool she is for chosing you when she can have ME!"
Jason lunged at Syaoran who dodged him with almost no effort. He was more delusional than usual, he was drunk.
Suddenly as Syaoran turned his back to take me home, Jason pulled out something that the lights bounced off of.
"SYAORAN LOOK OUT!" I pushed Syaoran away to safety, saving him from a gruesome death by a sharp knife.
I however, was not fast enough and could not save myself from the drunk psycho. I suddenly felt the sharp piece of metal
penetrate my skin and shrieked in pain.
Syaoran screamed in disbelief. He leapt off the ground and threw Jason half way across the gym knocking him out, the knife however
remained in me.
"SAKURA! OH GOD SAKURA!"
I looked at my shoulder which was pretty bloody. I nearly fell back in shock, Syaoran however held on to me tightly as he picked me up
and rushed me to his car, leaving the intoxicated Jason to tend to himself.
"Syaoran...you can't take me to the hospital, too many questions...I..I dont want Jason to be expelled or worse."
"Sakura, that jerk deserves jail time! He could have killed you!"
"It's just a scratch Syaoran, besides Tomoyo's puffed sleeves took most of the hit. This is nothing compared to the old days
while capturing the cards...still...you werent THIS worried back then..."
Syaoran's face was white as he drove with haste. I had a pretty good idea where I was going.
Syaoran carried me inside his home and gently placed me on his couch. He reached to the next room for the first aid kit.
"Uhm Sakura could you..uh..free your shoulder...."
I can't help but giggle at his red face. He was so cute. He was so shy still. So much for getting rid of his blushing habit,
his blush was there, full force.
"Some things never change" Syaoran looks at me with a confused look. I just smile and manage to free my shoulder from Tomoyo's
dress which unfortunately had blood all over it....unfortunately was however thought of loosely..spending more time alone
with Syaoran was just what I was hoping for.
"Sakura I could just kill you for this.."
"Aww is Syaoran wowwied about widdle owd meee? Awww"
"I always worry about you Sakura."
"Syaoran...you look a little pale."
He didn't answer, he only continued to nurse me back to health.
"Syaoran...tell me whats going on in that head of yours?"
Silence.
"Syaoran!" I snatch the bandage from his hand hoping to get his attention.
"Sakura! I dont think you want to bleed all over the floor!"
"Tell me what your thinking...or I ll continue to bleed all over the floor."
He sighs in exasperation.
"Sakura, when we were capturing the cards I was terrified you would be hurt, so I always kept a watchful eye on you. You never
knew this but, when you captured the shadow card a long time ago...I watched you, I saw how hard you tried, truly wanting to succeed.
I was afraid that you would get hurt, a girl in pain is never pretty." He smiled a weak smile and continued.
"I always knew we had a connection, deeper than the clow cards, deeper than all of that. I just...I just never realized how
deep this connection went. Until tonight I had forgotten was genuine fear was!"
I burst out laughing, "oh, Macho Syaoran NEVER gets scared, he fears nothing, oh almighty Syaoran!"
"I didnt mean it like that, I meant...I never knew what true fear, genuine concern or love was before I met you Sakura, you
changed me so completely...and tonight all those memories flashed in front of my eyes. In that instant, the second the knife
missed it's intentional target and hit ...you...I felt that all over again, and I felt something else....this empty
whole that manifested itself the instant I heard your scream...this void would never heal unless I knew you were alive, safe,
and breathing. I had a taste of true loneliness today...I felt for a brief moment what life would be like without you in it
and let me tell you it was'nt pretty, it scared the hell out of me!" For possibly the first time I saw Syaoran Li shed
tears. He was crying, almight Li was crying and that was the final wall falling down, he had finally let me in. I truly
knew who this man was, he who completes me...
Later in the night, we called my house and explained that I was sleeping over at Tomoyo's for the night. No questions asked which
was a relief. It was an emotional rollercoster of a day, and I was happy it would soon be over. Now the real problem was,
where o where would I sleep?
I remember feeling all giddy and evil all at once, I could tell Syaoran was extremely spent but still had this evil glint in his
eyes, he wanted to something naughty! We both however wrestled with our hormones to keep them at bay.
He let me some clothes to wear for the night, but I suddenly ran into quite a problem...
"Uhm Syaoran I can't exactly uhm move my shoulder...your going to have to help me undress...and then slip on your clothes."
Syaoran had a nosebleed in 10 seconds flat, but eventually regained his composure. As maturally as humanly possible, he helped me
undress. I suppose he told himself that I was merely in my two piece swim suit. Hehe, it was torture for him, he was so
kawaii during awkward moments.
Syaoran gave me his bed, he took the couch. I wonder why it takes disasters like this to bring people closer together.
I finally drifted to sleep...however it was anything but dreamless....

I yanked my arms away from him and hid behind my protector, my knight in shinning armor, my guardian angel, my Little Wolf.
Syaoran.
"Come on fight me Syaoran, prove to Sakura what a fool she is for chosing you when she can have ME!"
Jason lunged at Syaoran who dodged him with almost no effort. He was more delusional than usual, he was drunk.
Suddenly as Syaoran turned his back to take me home, Jason pulled out something that the lights bounced off of.
"SYAORAN LOOK OUT!" I pushed Syaoran away to safety, saving him from a gruesome death by a sharp knife.
I however, was not fast enough and could not save myself from the drunk psycho. I suddenly felt the sharp piece of metal
penetrate my skin and shrieked in pain.
Syaoran screamed in disbelief. He leapt off the ground and threw Jason half way across the gym knocking him out, the knife however
remained in me.
"SAKURA! OH GOD SAKURA!"
I looked at my shoulder which was pretty bloody. I nearly fell back in shock, Syaoran however held on to me tightly as he picked me up
and rushed me to his car, leaving the intoxicated Jason to tend to himself.
"Syaoran...you can't take me to the hospital, too many questions...I..I dont want Jason to be expelled or worse."
"Sakura, that jerk deserves jail time! He could have killed you!"
"It's just a scratch Syaoran, besides Tomoyo's puffed sleeves took most of the hit. This is nothing compared to the old days
while capturing the cards...still...you werent THIS worried back then..."
Syaoran's face was white as he drove with haste. I had a pretty good idea where I was going.
Syaoran carried me inside his home and gently placed me on his couch. He reached to the next room for the first aid kit.
"Uhm Sakura could you..uh..free your shoulder...."
I can't help but giggle at his red face. He was so cute. He was so shy still. So much for getting rid of his blushing habit,
his blush was there, full force.
"Some things never change" Syaoran looks at me with a confused look. I just smile and manage to free my shoulder from Tomoyo's
dress which unfortunately had blood all over it....unfortunately was however thought of loosely..spending more time alone
with Syaoran was just what I was hoping for.
"Sakura I could just kill you for this.."
"Aww is Syaoran wowwied about widdle owd meee? Awww"
"I always worry about you Sakura."
"Syaoran...you look a little pale."
He didn't answer, he only continued to nurse me back to health.
"Syaoran...tell me whats going on in that head of yours?"
Silence.
"Syaoran!" I snatch the bandage from his hand hoping to get his attention.
"Sakura! I dont think you want to bleed all over the floor!"
"Tell me what your thinking...or I ll continue to bleed all over the floor."
He sighs in exasperation.
"Sakura, when we were capturing the cards I was terrified you would be hurt, so I always kept a watchful eye on you. You never
knew this but, when you captured the shadow card a long time ago...I watched you, I saw how hard you tried, truly wanting to succeed.
I was afraid that you would get hurt, a girl in pain is never pretty." He smiled a weak smile and continued.
"I always knew we had a connection, deeper than the clow cards, deeper than all of that. I just...I just never realized how
deep this connection went. Until tonight I had forgotten was genuine fear was!"
I burst out laughing, "oh, Macho Syaoran NEVER gets scared, he fears nothing, oh almighty Syaoran!"
"I didnt mean it like that, I meant...I never knew what true fear, genuine concern or love was before I met you Sakura, you
changed me so completely...and tonight all those memories flashed in front of my eyes. In that instant, the second the knife
missed it's intentional target and hit ...you...I felt that all over again, and I felt something else....this empty
whole that manifested itself the instant I heard your scream...this void would never heal unless I knew you were alive, safe,
and breathing. I had a taste of true loneliness today...I felt for a brief moment what life would be like without you in it
and let me tell you it was'nt pretty, it scared the hell out of me!" For possibly the first time I saw Syaoran Li shed
tears. He was crying, almight Li was crying and that was the final wall falling down, he had finally let me in. I truly
knew who this man was, he who completes me...
Later in the night, we called my house and explained that I was sleeping over at Tomoyo's for the night. No questions asked which
was a relief. It was an emotional rollercoster of a day, and I was happy it would soon be over. Now the real problem was,
where o where would I sleep?
I remember feeling all giddy and evil all at once, I could tell Syaoran was extremely spent but still had this evil glint in his
eyes, he wanted to something naughty! We both however wrestled with our hormones to keep them at bay.
He let me some clothes to wear for the night, but I suddenly ran into quite a problem...
"Uhm Syaoran I can't exactly uhm move my shoulder...your going to have to help me undress...and then slip on your clothes."
Syaoran had a nosebleed in 10 seconds flat, but eventually regained his composure. As maturally as humanly possible, he helped me
undress. I suppose he told himself that I was merely in my two piece swim suit. Hehe, it was torture for him, he was so
kawaii during awkward moments.
Syaoran gave me his bed, he took the couch. I wonder why it takes disasters like this to bring people closer together.
I finally drifted to sleep...however it was anything but dreamless....
