Hurt, Hope, and Happiness
*Chapter Seven - Love can be Complicated*
Disclaim: I do not own Cardcaptor Sakura. If I did I would be
making this into a movie. Not a fanfiction. I do not own any of
the songs I put in the story. I do own the plot and situation
I've created. Kieta, Trave, Reina, Mikhai, Mr. Ginner, and all
the extra characters are my creations. Please don't use them in
anything without my permission.
The Li household wasn't very calm with the whole situation.
"Hoeeee! How could Eriol do this?! I just know they both
were destined to be together!" Sakura paced back and forth.
Syaoran stared in shock as his Cherry Blossoms stormed throughout
the room.
Mikhai stood by his father, staring at his mother. Even at the
age of four, he knew something was terribly wrong here.
Riena sat on the floor, bawling, she knew something was wrong
too, but she was very emotional, like her mother. Not like her
father and younger brother.
Syaoran stepped forward a bit and placed his hand on Sakura's
shoulder, stopping her pace, "Cherry Blossoms. You're
scaring Mikhai and Riena. Calm down." He may have seemed
calm, but inside he was ripping apart at seeing his wife act this
way.
Sakura left out a deep sigh and threw her hands around him,
"You're right my little wolf. But what am I supposed to do?
Tomoyo and Eriol were made for each other! How am I supposed to
act when I find out that Eriol just gets up and ruins
destiny?!?"
Syaoran held her tight while Sakura let out a few more sobs.
Riena stood up and wiped away her tears, "Oto-san? Is
everything going to be good?"
"Okay," Syaoran corrected her, "Everything will be
okay Riena."
Syaoran took his finger and moved it around Sakura's wet tear
lines on her face.
Sakura looked up into Syaoran's amber eyes with her emerald orbs,
"Everything going to be good?" She repeated her
daughter's words.
Syaoran didn't say anything; he just gave her a little squeeze,
"Let's go deliver the note Kieta gave us.
Sakura nodded silently, "Let me leave the children with the
neighbors.
~*~*~
"So, he justleft?" Tomoyo faced the window of her
bedroom.
Sakura and Syaoran had stopped by with the letter Eriol had left
with Kieta. Kieta felt awful about what had happened and didn't
have the time or courage to give the letter to Tomoyo herself.
"Yes." Syaoran replied while Sakura hung her head in
silence.
"He didn't have the nerve to give me it himself."
Tomoyo said without much thought, "He's a coward now."
Sakura was stricken her head shot up, her eyes went big and she
lashed out all the emotion she had, "How can you say that?!?
He LOVES you Tomoyo! He thinks you HATE him! Do you really think
that he would dream of delivering a letter to someone he thinks
hates him?!? You two where made to be together! And that's just
it! It's destiny!"
The wave of words flew in the room and hit Tomoyo hard.
Syaoran winced, knowing that this might be too much for Tomoyo to
handle.
Silence engulfed the room as Sakura, with tear stricken eyes,
waited for Tomoyo's reply.
Tomoyo froze stiff. The words melted through her into her heart.
Eriol loved her.
Tomoyo let Sakura's words hang in the air for a moment before
answering, "So he's gone? Forever?"
"Hai, TomoyoI'm sorry." Sakura tried to reach out
to her friend, but Syaoran stopped her.
"Let her be Sakura. Come on."
Sakura eyed Tomoyo with worry, "Okay."
Tomoyo heard the door open and close softly.
She sighed and sat down on her bed. He did love me. If he
loved me then why did he leave me, twice?
A song came into her head. One by an American teenager named
Lindsay; that had made it's way to her city.
~*Love can be Complicated
Too often mistranslated
One word for all dynamics
Leads to problematic
Emotions and Affections
Feelings in all Directions
Sometimes a simple action
Creates Satisfaction
And as long as you are mine
I will take the time
To let you know
What I feel cause...
All I need is everything you are*~
Tomoyo's mind drifted off as she forgot the rest of the word to
the song. She thought that the teen who had sung the song was
wise beyond her years - Love was complicated.
Tomoyo hung her head in her hands, He did love me. I loved
him. And now he's gone. Forever.
Sneak Peek into Chapter Eight
"Hmmmmlooks like we got a fancy
letter from Japan!"
Nakuru tore open the envelope and opened the card.
"NANI?!?" She cried out.
Eriol rushed into the hall, "What is it Nakuru?".
Quick Note: Sorry, but the preview for this Chapter was wrong. I decided to write about Sakura, Syaoran, and Tomoyo's reactions. S+S Chappie. And if you want to small clip of the song in here, just e-mail me.
