I've decided I'll be continuing on with the Takashi bit. even though I don't like it all that much! HAPYY NEW YEAR! Sorry I haven't updated in a while. I was at a relatives for 2 days and then to top it off, on my computer, this site isn't working all too well. so that gives me more of a chance to write more. When I put them as thinking and not putting who it was, it means the person who was speaking just before is thinking that. Just to clear up any confusion that might occur. Well, enjoy the chapter!

Meeting Once Again

Chapter Four: Too Many Tears

~*~*~*~**~*~*~* Throughout the kingdom. much was occurring. Much happiness, much sadness, much confusion. Sakura had made her way to her room and was crying herself to sleep. Syaoran on the other hand, just lay down on his bed, many thoughts coursing through his mind, and a few tears trickling down his face. Tomoyo lay asleep in Eriol's arms, as he too, was asleep. Chiharu and Takashi were sitting on a bench enjoying the scenery and each other's company, Chiharu leaning on Takashi. Mary and Meiling sat in library still crying now and then planning how to get Syaoran and Sakura together once again. Xiao Hu still remained under the tree thinking about all the possibilities of who his father could possibly be. As said before Fujitaka and Yelan sat at a desk planning for the next ball. What could possibly happen next? THIS! ~*~*~*~**~*~*~*

The sun arose, reckoning a new day. Still with all of the things that had occurred the previous night still fresh in the minds of our six heroes and heroines. Some minds fresher than others. As the rays of light in compliments of the sun filtered into all six rooms, even though one was empty. All six stirred and got up.

Sakura squeezed her eyes shut, only to have to open them once again. Her bright emerald green eyes opened slowly, little by little. She smiled looking out the window, have her eyes set on the wonderful day ahead of her. Her smile immediately vanished, and was replaced by a blank, cold look that could be read in her eyes, she plastered on a fake smile and set off to do her morning business. Meanwhile.

Tomoyo's eyes shot open as she felt that she was on top of someone her back towards them. She relaxed when she remembered the occurrences of the previous night.

"Good morning," Eriol whispered in her ear.

"Morning. We better get up, or else we'll pull a Sakura and get late," Tomoyo said giggling at the memory of her little sister always being late. The two got up and did their morning business as well. Once they were finished they walked hand-in-hand down the hallway to the breakfast hall. Meanwhile.

"Chiharu," Takashi whispered as he shook her lightly. "Chiharu," he said once more in singsong voice. He heard her have an intake of breath and she opened once eye, only to have them both shoot open and Takashi, a pillow flying at his face.

"What are you doing in here?" Chiharu asked bewildered.

"I cam to wake you up so we could go down for breakfast. That's what you usually eat in the mornings. Did you know that the cavemen originally ate breakfast, and named it breakfast because-" Takashi began but was cut off. Chiharu had thrown yet another pillow at him. She sighed and went into the washroom. Elsewhere.

Syaoran was sitting on his bed fully dressed. The only thing that stopped him from walking out of that door and going down to the breakfast hall were his thoughts. 'How could I have been such a jerk? What if she isn't lying and he really is my son? I can't believe I actually accused her then ran out like that. I'm such an idiot. Maybe I won't go down for breakfast at all,' he thought as he mentally kicked himself. He knew that if he didn't get up and go down though, everyone would wonder where he was and would get into major trouble. So with a sigh and one last glance in the mirror, he left his chambers and went down to the breakfast hall.

~*Once everyone was down*~

"Sakura-chan!! How are you? What happened last night? TELL ME!" Said an all too happy Tomoyo as she came into the hall with Eriol, who was now left in the dust the moment she spotted Sakura. Sakura's head was down.

"Not right now okay?" Sakura said softly. She forced out a smile, even she felt like doing the exact opposite. This was the first clue that something was wrong. Chiharu was right behind Tomoyo and saw this also.

"What's wrong Sakura? Is everything okay?" Chiharu asked worriedly.

"I'll. yeah! I'll talk to you later ok? I'll be in my room if you need anything," Sakura said as she got up and left the table and hall. The few tears that were beginning to trickle from her eyes didn't go unnoticed. Chiharu and Tomoyo immediately scanned the hall for Syaoran to find him sitting at a table on the other side looking straight in their direction with the word WORRIED plastered all over his face. The moment he noticed he was being watched he looked away.

"You go talk to Sakura, I'll kill him," Chiharu said. 'You, Mr. Li, are a dead man.' Tomoyo nodded and ran up to Eriol and Takashi to give them a briefing about what had just happened and ran off to find Sakura. Eriol and Takashi looked at each other and ran to Chiharu to be there if restraining was to be needed.

"What the hell have you done to her now?" Chiharu spat out.

"What are you talking about?" Syaoran asked with his head down, his bangs hiding his eyes.

"You know as good as hell as what I'm talking about, so tell me now Li Syaoran, or I WILL hurt you," Chiharu said sternly.

"We got into an argument," Syaoran said sighing. 'She'll find out one way or another.'

"About what?" Chiharu asked worriedly.

"About some kid. Saying he was mine," Syaoran asked raising his head to reveal he had tears in his eyes. He just wasn't allowing them to fall.

"How can you get into a fight that way? Xiao Hu is your son," Chiharu stated.

"That's the thing. I don't believe it," Syaoran stated back. Chiharu let out a nice, long, high pitched screech. She then walked over to him and slapped him hard across his face. Hard enough to leave a nice giant red mark. "To think there was a time I thought of you as a good person, and good for Sakura. How much more wrong could I have been? You actually think she would lie to you?" Chiharu scoffed then stalked out of the room anger filled her entire body as she went to train to allow some of it to release. Syaoran let his tears drop as he hung his head in shame. Eriol and Takashi looked at each other in shock and gave him a sympathetic look.

~*In Sakura's Room*~

Sakura was curled up in her bed crying silent tears. A knock came to her door.

"Sakura? Are you in here?" came Tomoyo's voice.

"H-hai," Sakura stuttered out as she sniffled.

"Can I come in?" Tomoyo asked once more.

"Hai," she said soft enough for Tomoyo to hear.

"Sakura are you all right?" Tomoyo asked as she came in and sat on the bed. Sakura paused for a moment and then leaped on Tomoyo to give her a hug and cry on her shoulder. Tomoyo hugged her and rocked her back and forth. Once Sakura had calmed down a bit, she spoke.

"When Syaoran and I were talking last night, he asked me who the father was and I said it was him because it was true," Sakura began in between sobs. Tomoyo nodded. "He said he didn't believe me," Sakura whispered. Tomoyo's eyes and aura flared at this as she clenched her small hand into a fist. Soon she felt a warm liquid run down her hand and opened it to see a small amount of blood. She cast a spell to make it heal, and closed it once more, only softer.

"Sakura. Just give him time. He was probably in much shock," Tomoyo reasoned. 'That still doesn't justify what you did. And when I find you. YOU'RE DEAD!'

"Maybe," sniffled Sakura as she got up.

"Yeah. So don't you worry about a thing! Let's go eat, and then you come back upstairs and sleep.

"Okay," Sakura said as she got up. That's when Sakura remembered. "Oh! How are things with you and Eriol-kun coming along?" At this comment Tomoyo turned into a human tomato.

"G-good. Come on Sakura, let's get breakfast!" Tomoyo said as she ran out of the door with a puzzled Sakura left behind before she shook her head clear of thoughts and went after Tomoyo.

~*After Breakfast*~

(Sakura's in her room asleep at this point)

Tomoyo closed her eyes and concentrated all of her energy to find a green one. It felt so cold and alone, but she really didn't care. She headed to the gardens.

"LI SYAORAN!" Tomoyo screeched. He was watching Eriol and Takashi train. The two dropped their swords to cover their ears. Syaoran looked as if he was going to die. which he had every right to think so. Tomoyo had her aura flared up all around her and flames in her eyes.

"Tomoyo... calm down," Syaoran began.

"TO HELL WITH CALMNESS! YOU IDIOT! YOU IMBISILE! YOU AIRHEAD! IF SAKURA STILL DIDN'T LOVE YOU SO MUCH I WOULD KILL YOU IN LESS THAN A SECOND WITHOUT HESITATION! HOW COULD YOU HAVE DONE THIS TO HER! YOU COULDN'T HAVE ASKED ONE OF US RIGHT? YOU JUST HAD TO MAKE QUICK ASSUMPTIONS AND ACCUSATIONS!" Tomoyo screamed in his face before she punched him in his jaw. At this point Eriol came n between the two. "I'm done," Tomoyo whispered before she walked back to the castle.

"You've really screwed yourself over," Eriol said as he looked at him with out any emotion.

"Sorry man, but the guy's got a point," Takashi said as he gave him the same emotionless face before Eriol and Takashi went back to training.

'They're right. I really have screwed myself over. And now I know it is true, I have a son,' Syaoran thought to himself as he let a few more tears make their was down his cheeks.
