"But how can we do that? I mean yeah, Syaoran-kun is on to something, but Sakura. she's changed so much from the last time you guys have seen her. She's changed a lot. And I mean a lot. She isn't the kawaii little Sakura I used to videotape all the time. She's changed for the better. and for the worst. I don't know if Syaoran-kun can change her back," Tomoyo said sadly.
"Hopefully he will. We can never lose hope Tomoyo, because at this point, hope is all we've got left," Eriol whispered in her ear while he cradled her back and forth in his arms.
Meeting Once Again
Chapter Twelve: Loosing Hope
"Takashi! This can't get any worse! The others are hiding something from us! I know it. When ever I walk into a room Eriol and Tomoyo stop talking immediately. And then there's Sakura and Syaoran! They've been acting all creepy lately," Chiharu complained as she settled herself in Takashi's arms.
"What do you mean creepy?" Takashi asked kissing the top of her head.
"They're always acting so happy even though Sakura has this sad look on her face all the time and Syaoran's starting to look suspicious and he isn't saying anything! This is soo unlike them. What ever happened to the blunt Syaoran I used to know and the happy little Sakura?" Chiharu continued.
"Time changes people Chiharu. Well. not you, but it changes most people. Syaoran and Sakura are one of these people. Just allow everything to play out. Then. we'll see what fate has in store," Takashi responded.
"Wow. my little Takashi is actually making sense for once," Chiharu said laughing to herself.
~*Sakura's POV*~
Why can't I just do it? Why can't I make him feel all of the pain I've been experiencing for how many years now? Whenever I'm getting ready to see him I know exactly what I need to do, but the moment I see him, I forget it all. Or, sometimes I remember but I just can't bring myself do it. The sad part about it is I feel myself falling in love with him all over again. Why is this happening to me? Why can't I just sort all of my feelings out? Maybe that's what I need to do. I should just go away for a few days to think and then I'll come back much more relaxed and I'll have everything sorted out.
-Knock knock-
Great, someone else to talk to. Chiharu and Tomoyo have been getting suspicious, and I think Syaoran is too. Well Tomoyo knows I'm up to something and all, but Chiharu and Syaoran have no idea. I get up and answer the door and see the one person I want to be away from the most right now. Syaoran.
"Hey Syaoran, come on in," I said as I moved aside to allow him to come in. Suddenly I feel my heart beat speed up and I begin to get warm all over.
"Hey. You want to go outside or something. we need to talk," he said back to me. We need to talk. Uh-oh. Those words are never too good.
"Um. sure," I said stepping out of the room with him following close behind. On our way to some benches in the gardens there was nothing but unnerving silence. "So. what did you want to talk about?" I said once more when we were both seated.
~*Syaoran's POV*~
I just sat there thinking about how I was going to say what needed to be said. I looked into her eyes and saw nothing but sorrow. I felt my heart wrench. Why did I have a feeling it was all because of me? It's funny. I hate seeing her upset, but ever since I've met her I've been the reason why she's upset. And I'm about to do it all over again too. I took a deep breath and began.
"What's been wrong with you lately?" I asked her.
"What do you mean what's been wrong with me lately?" Sakura asked looking confused, but I knew she wasn't.
"You know exactly what I mean. What's been going on in that little head of yours?" I asked once more in an even tone.
"Listen Li. I have no idea what you are talking about so clarify yourself," she said rather rudely.
"Well, Sakura dearest, don't play dumb with me. Even though you've gotten a lot better at it through out the years. But you should know better than to try and fool me of all people. I know you best out of anyone. You and I were constantly avoiding each other and then all of a sudden you forgive me? Sakura. you have the biggest heart out of anyone I have ever known, but even you would want to know why I acted the way I did, so answer me. Now. What is going on?" I explained and asked one more time. This time she looked taken aback and turned away from me.
"You want to know what's been going on Li-kun?" she began, and then turned to look at me with tears in her eyes. "Ever since you came back I thought that I would actually have a family and my son would have a father. You know. just a small something going on in my head. But no. you jumped to conclusions thinking I would even think about lying to you about you having my son. Do you have any idea how much that hurt me? I cried all the time because of you. All the time. It was tiring. I hated you with all of my being. But. then I actually thought about it. I mean, I have to consider the type of person you were. but it still gave you no right to say. to act like that. So. I wanted you to be hurt too. I wanted you to fall in love with me, and then I would say you mean nothing to me and make you leave. I had it all laid out of how I would get my revenge. But then you just had to be you. I feel myself falling deeper in love with you. And tell me how can I honestly hurt you if I love you to every extent?" She yelled. I was so shocked I couldn't move. I was just trying to process everything she had just said but in spite of all of this... I heard myself answer her.
"I don't know."
"Then figure it out and get back to me because I need to know how we can make this work!" She yelled before running away from me. again.
~*Regular POV*~
~*Chiharu and Takashi*~
"Something's wrong Takashi, I can feel it," Chiharu said sitting up.
"Me too. But what could be wrong?" Takashi asked sitting up as well.
~*Eriol and Tomoyo*~
"I'm loosing hope Eriol. How are we supposed to fix this?" Tomoyo asked once the dispute between the two was over.
"I don't know. I really don't," Eriol answered with disbelief.
