Well my disclaimer for the chapter is...*dun, dun, dun* I don't own CCS but I own Brandon and Hideki because I made them up! Surprise, surprise... To clear something up, Meiling isn't going to have feelings for Syaoran, she's just playing the role of protective cousin and maybe matchmaker...he-he ^_^ Well I hope that you enjoy!!!! BTW, do any of ya'll listen to Korean Pop (Kpop)? Like BoA or SES? Just curious. Please don't forget to REVIEW, those are what keeps me going!! They are very much appreciated. Maybe at the very end of the story, I will make a shout out to all those who have reviewed!! Oh, btw...there's a part where Touya talks about his erm...relationship with Yukito in in this chapter... I hope none of you will be offended!! It's only a pinch...I promise!! Thanks!!

Recap:

"Sakura...I love you soo---oo much! I don't want anything to ever happen to you! I don't know what I'd do without you!" Syaoran said cupping his hands on Sakura's chin. Slowly leaning over, Syaoran kisses Sakura. He pulls her closer and Sakura kisses him back.

Sakura suddenly breaks off the kiss. "I can't do this, not to Hideki...I can't. We can't do this. I promised myself not to get into another relationship! I can't...gomen Li-san."

"But Sakura...I've wanted this for so long...I love you! Can't you see that? I want to be with you! Don't you want this too?"

"I can't...I just can't! I can't hurt Hideki anymore than I already have. I just can't be with you Li-san! I'm sorry...the most we can be is friends." Sakura said running back inside the house.

*~*~*~*

Sakura ran in the house and slowly searched for her otousan. She found him talking in a big group.

"Otousan, can I go back to Chiyako's house? I'm not feeling very well." Sakura said.

"Sure. Do you want me to go with you?" Mr. Kinomoto asked.

"Iie, I'll be fine. Tell your friends that I'm sorry for leaving the party early."

"It's no problem sweetie. I'm sure that they'll understand."

"Okay, that's good. Oyasuminasai, otousan." Sakura said giving her otousan a hug before leaving to go in the limo.

*~*~*~*

'Kinomoto-san, I have to talk to you! Damn...' Syaoran thought before running after Sakura. While running he accidentally bumps into Pearl.

"Oh hey Pearl, did you see Kinomoto-san come past here?"

"Hai, she went to talk to her otousan."

"Hmmm...." Syaoran hums looking around for Sakura.

"Why are you so interested in Sakura?"

"I was talking with her and we...uh...got interrupted."

"Oh....well...are you ready for that dance I was supposed to save you?"

"Maybe later, I have to talk with Kinomoto-san first. Thanks for your help Pearl." Syaoran said before rushing off.

'Hmmm...I thought that Sakura and Syaoran didn't know each other? Why is Syaoran so interested in Sakura?' Pearl thought to herself.

"Can't you tell?" Meiling said to Pearl easily.

"Nani?"

"You're so readable." Meiling smirked.

"Huh?"

"Syaoran is in love with Kinomoto-san!"

"That can't be! They haven't even know each other for more than five months! He's never been interested in girls before...what has changed???"

"He's fallen in love...love can do crazy things."

"No it's not true!! I won't believe it until I hear it from Syaoran!" Pearl exclaimed.

"Fine do whatever you want, but you know the truth deep down." Meiling said before leaving.

'NO! There's no way that Syaoran is IN LOVE!! He's never looked or cared for girls in that way!!! But even if he is, it should be me, not Sakura! I should be the one that holds Syaoran's heart! She hasn't even known him that long...I've known him since we were little. I've liked him since we were kids...if Sakura is the one, then I don't think I could forgive her nor be friends with her ever again.' Pearl thought.

~*~*~

While walking away Syaoran bumps into his cousin, Meiling.

"Meiling!? Do you have any idea where Kinomoto-san went?" Syaoran asked his heart beating fast.

"Yah...I heard her tell her otousan that she was leaving for my okasan's house."

"Xie xie Meiling!" Syaoran said running.

"Take our limo! The driver's name is Mao!" Meiling called over her shoulder.

"Xie xie, again Meiling!" Syaoran called over his shoulder. He ran outside and located Meiling's limo. "Qing take me to Chiyako's house as quickly as possible." The driver nodded and drove Syaoran there in five minutes.

'I have to talk to Kinomoto-san.' Syaoran thought.

"Here you are." The driver said.

"Xie xie, I'll see that you get a raise." Syaoran said with a smile. He ran up the path to Meiling's house and rang the doorbell.

"Hello...welcome to the Li Residence. The masters...oh, ni hao Master Li." The butler said startled, "What brings you here. Mistress Li isn't home at the moment."

"I'm looking for Meiling's guest, Kinomoto Sakura."

"Oh she just got here. Would you like to come in while I retrieve her?"

"Sure." Syaoran said walking in.

"I'll be back in a moment." Syaoran sighed looking around the house that he knew almost as well as his own.

"Master Li, Miss Kinomoto is indisposed at the moment. She requests that she not see anyone."

"I don't care. I have to talk to her, NOW!" Syaoran roared.

"Well if you must see her that bad, she is in her room. She is boarding in the room next Mistress Meiling's room."

"Xie xie." Syaoran said before running down the long hall until he reached an oak door and he knocks.

"Kinomoto-san? Let me in! I need to talk to you!" Syaoran said calmly.

"Iie...I don't want to see you!"

"Kinomoto-san! I need to speak to you, please open the door or I will be forced to break it down."

"Break it down! I can't talk to you, I don't know what I will do! So just go away!"

"No, we need to talk about this...come on and open the door." Syaoran coaxed.

"I'm sorry, but I just can't talk to you, so please just leave." Sakura sighed.

"Fine, I'll break down this door, but remember you are a guest at this house. You wouldn't want to be bothersome by making my aunt and uncle pay for the repairs from the broken door, would you?"

"Shimatta...fine. I'll open the door, but I'm not speaking to you." Sakura said and opened the door. Syaoran looked at Sakura and she turned away from him.

"Fine, don't look at me. All I ask is that you will listen to me."

"..."

"I'll take that silence as a go ahead. What happened tonight was all my fault. I didn't mean to kiss you tonight, but I couldn't help it. You looked so pretty and the mood was right. It was just a spur of the moment thing. I'm sorry if that offended you or upset you in any way. I didn't mean for the kiss to do that. I know you just got out of relationship and I didn't meant to overstep any bounds."

"You didn't. It's not all your fault either. I kissed you back, ne? I just feel like I'm being disloyal to Hideki, and I don't want to do that. He's such a good guy." Sakura replied.

"If he's such a good guy then why did he hurt you?"

"I don't know. It doesn't make any sense."

"Why do you want to be loyal to a guy that hurt you and caused that bruise on your arm?"

"I don't know..." Sakura said, lost in her thoughts. She remembered the tingle she felt when Syaoran touched it.

"I wouldn't ever hurt you!"

"I know...it's just...just...."

"What?" Syaoran asked moving closer to her, close enough to give her a hug.

"I was just in a great relationship, and I ruined it. How do I know that if I get into a relationship with you, I won't screw it up? Because I know that if I do, it'll ruin our friendship, and I don't want that nor need that."

"Well...I know that I could love you forever and I will always be there for you whether a friend or as someone that you love."

"Oh Li-san..."

"Its true...I will never leave you no matter what happens."

"Li-san..." Sakura said looking deep into his eyes.

"I just want you to be happy, and if that happiness is to someone else, then be it. I'll support you 100%."

"Thank you Li-san!!" Sakura said looking even more deeper into Syaoran's eyes.

"Eh-hem...well why don't you go to sleep now...you look exhausted. I'll talk to you later." Syaoran said not wanting to look into those entrancing emerald green eyes. He didn't know what he would do if he did look into her eyes.

"Okay...oyasuminasai! And Li-san...arigato for coming to talk to me... I feel better..." Sakura said before closing her door.

~*~ Next Morning

"Ohayo Sakura!" Meiling called happily walking into Sakura's room and opening the shutters.

"Go away..." Sakura croaked hiding farther underneath her covers.

"Sakura, I want you to come shopping with me!" Meiling said completely ignoring Sakura's comment.

"No, I'd prefer just to stay right here in bed, where its nice and warm."

"Come on Sakura, we have to leave as quickly as possible." Meiling chirruped.

"Just five more minutes...FIVE...is that too much to ask?" Sakura asked.

"Yes it is...now get up before I have to force you to wake up in ways that aren't going to make you happy."

"Iie!" Sakura said throwing one of her pillows at Meiling and missed.

"Sakura you don't have to be so violent! Geez, your otousan wasn't kidding when he said it's harder to get you to wake up than pulling teeth! Aiyah...this will be harder than I thought..." Meiling murmured.

"...snore..." Sakura snored.

"Sakura, I'm giving you one more chance to wake up or I'm going to throw buckets of freezing cold water on you." Meiling warned. "Wei, please grab some buckets of freezing cold water for me." Meiling called.

"Awww...Meiling...you're evil. Alright I'm up..." Sakura said surrendering.

"Yay...now get dressed. Wei has already cooked breakfast...hurry up before it gets cold."

"It's freezing!" Sakura said shivering. She hurried to her closet and grabbed two long-sleeve shirts, a pink hooded sweatshirt, and a pair of jeans. She quickly showered and got dressed.

"Sakura...you're finally up! What would you like for breakfast?" Meiling asked cheerfully.

"A triple jumbo frappachino...and to wipe that smile on your face..." Sakura muttered.

"What was that? I couldn't hear you."

"Oh...just some coffee and an orange."

"That's all?"

"Don't worry...I'll eat more when I become alive." Sakura assured her.

"I'll be back. I have to call someone..."

"Hai...I'll finish my food and we can go shopping." 'Wow...I can't believe I'm even up at this ungodly hour...wow?! I'm never up earlier than 11 AM except on school days! Well this shopping trip better be worth it...'

"Are you ready?" Meiling asked.

"Iie...I can't believe I got up at this hour..."

"Don't worry, it'll be fun and well worth it! Plus there's a skating rink right in the mall..."

~*~

"Wow...they have the San-x store here?! I wanna see if they have any Buru Buru merchandise I don't have!" Sakura exclaimed excited.

"Okay...well I have to go to somewhere...so I'll be back later..." Meiling said with a wave.

"Sure...ja!" Sakura said before becoming immersed into the Buru Buru merchandise. "Oooo...this Buru Buru stuffed animal is sooo kawaii!!"

"Kinomoto-san is that you?" a familiar voice asked.

"Oh...hey Li-san! What are you doing here?" Sakura asked turning around.

"I am supposed to meet Meiling around here. I wonder where she went." Syaoran answered.

"I don't know...she told me she had to go somewhere...she'll be back later."

"Oh...so what are you doing up so early?"

"Ano..."

"Cause if I remember correctly you absolutely despise waking up before 11AM..."

"Meiling insisted that I come shopping with her...so I was like sure whatever...'cause she was nice enough to let me borrow that dress I was wearing last night."

"Oh...are you sure because I don't think just insisting is enough to get you out of the bed in the morning." Syaoran said.

"Well, okay, I have to admit that Meiling threatened to throw buckets of freezing cold water on me." Sakura said and Syaoran laughed.

"That sounds just about right, pure Meiling and harsh enough to get you out of bed." Syaoran laughed.

"Don't be so mean! It's not hard to get me out of bed." Sakura exclaimed play-hitting Syaoran.

"Hey you know that I'm only kidding."

"Yah I know." Sakura smiled innocently and giggled.

"What's so funny?"

"I just remembered that Meiling called you Li-Li and when I first heard that nickname, I thought you were a girl..."

"Well it's not my fault, my stupid cousins and mother made that dumb nickname for me!" Syaoran flared.

"Don't worry. I think it's kinda kawaii! It fits you!" Sakura smiled and Syaoran blushed.

"Yah...well...."

"Aww...I made you blush..."

"Hmm...well I wonder what's taking Meiling so long?" Syaoran said trying to change the subject.

"Yah, she should've been here by now! Where is she?" Sakura asked.

"OH MY GOSH! SHE SET US UP!" Sakura and Syaoran said aloud at the same, exact time.

"Well..." Sakura said blushing.

"I can't believe my cousin!" Syaoran said blushing even more than Sakura.

"Well, we might as well spend the time together since we're already here..." Sakura suggested.

"Yah...I guess..."

"Why don't we go and eat some lunch?"

"What do you want?"

"A cheeseburger and milkshake sounds nice..."

"Okay. Let's go to In N' Out." Syaoran suggested. The two of them went to In N' Out and ate.

"Let's go ice-skating! Meiling told me there's an ice-skating rink here."

"Yah...okay let me finish my shake." Syaoran said before slurping up the last of his shake and Sakura giggled.

"What?"

"Nothing." Sakura said with a smile.

"You sure?"

"Yah. Where do we get ice-skates?"

"Here." Syaoran said handing Sakura a pair. (A/N: Yep, they appeared out of no where. he-he ^_^)

"Okay...thanks. Come on let's go skating!!" Sakura exclaimed grabbing Syaoran's hand and leading him towards the ice skating rink.

"Matte Kinomoto-san!" Syaoran called out.

"Nani?" Sakura asked confused.

"Ano....I...I....can't....ano..."

"You can't skate?"

"Yah..." Syaoran nodded.

"Oh that's okay. I can teach you. It's just like rollerblading except on ice..."

"Hontou ni?"

"Yah...here come on!! You're never going to learn by just standing outside the ice rink! Come on!!" Sakura said grabbing his hand more tightly and dragging him to the ice rink. "Just a warning, the ice is a bit slippery so you might fall and get hurt a couple times.

"Okay...ouch!!" Syaoran yelped from falling on his butt.

"Here...let me teach you, this is the way Hideki-san taught me." Sakura said grabbing his hands and she skated skating backwards while leading Syaoran forward. "Okay...right foot forward, left foot forward...good!"

"Wow...this is easier than I thought." While skating backwards Sakura accidently bumps into someone and falls...

"Oof..." Sakura said while falling on top of Syaoran. "Oh my..." Sakura said realizing the position she was in. "Gomenasai..." Sakura blushed.

"Oh that's okay..." Syaoran also blushed.

"I should watch where I'm going next time..."

"It's not your fault...I should protect you better...as I have promised I would. I should've warned you when I saw that you might've accidently bumped into someone."

"Li-san...please don't start. I don't want to think about Hideki or anything that happened before vacation. I wanna forget about it at least for the moment, and concentrate on who I'm with right now." Sakura said.

"Alright..." Syaoran said blushing. Some girls passed by Sakura and Syaoran and started giggling. "What was that about?" Syaoran wondered.

"I dunno. Oh...matte...oops...I lied...you have a milk mustache from the milkshake. I wanted you to leave it on because I thought it was cute on you!"

"Kinomoto-san..." Syaoran said in a warning voice and trying to wipe it off.

"It's okay...I'll do it!" Sakura said wiping the leftover shake from his lip. "There you go, all better." Sakura smiled.

"Okay...arigato." Syaoran tingled where Sakura's fingers touched.

"Let's get back to skating."

"Yah..." After a couple more hours of skating, Sakura started to get hungry.

"I'm hungry, let's go eat something Li-san!"

"Sure...how about some ice cream..."

"YAY...oishii!! I'll meet you there...last one there is a rotten egg!!" Sakura exclaimed racing off towards the food court.

"Kinomoto-san...MATTE!!" Syaoran said rushing to go after her. He found the auburn-haired girl with a tall brown-haired guy.

"Kaijou ja nani?!" Syaoran could heard Sakura yelling.

"Aw, come on you know you luv being calling kaijou." The tall guy insisted, rustling Sakura's hair.

"Awww...come onyou know I don't!! Anyway, where's Yukito?" Sakura said annoyed.

"Hey Sakura!!" A silver-haired guy called waving enthusiastically.

"Yukito-san!!" Sakura's eye began to water.

"Come over here and give your favorite house guest a hug!"

"Okay!!" Sakura exclaimed rushing over and giving Yukito a hug and he started whispering some words into her ear that made her smile and laugh. Syaoran could feel his mouth twitch. 'Who are these guys that Kinomoto-san is so close to? Is one of them her boyfriend? I thought she was still single...damn!!'

"Kinomoto-san, I guess you beat me!" Syaoran said in a hollow voice and giving both the brown-haired and silver-haired guys an evil look. Sakura whispered something else in the silver guy's ear and then walked towards Syaoran.

"I'm such a good runner, ne?" Sakura said smiling just at Syaoran.

"Yah, I guess." Syaoran said blushing.

"I'd like you to meet my oniichan, Kinomoto Touya and his friend, Tsukishiro Yukito."

"Oh...hajimemashite." A look of comprehension washed over his face and the evil look dissolved.

"So, you're the famous Li-san. I've heard so much about you!" Touya exclaimed walking over to shake Syaoran's hand.

"As have I." Yukito called rushing over to give Syaoran a very friendly handshake.

"Let's get some ice cream!!" Sakura exclaimed.

"Let's get it to go. I want to see the house otousan keeps marveling about over the phone." Touya suggested.

"Okay." Yukito agreed grabbing his five bags of ice cream.

"Matte, what about Meiling?" Sakura asked.

"Yah...hold on, I'll give her a call." Syaoran said whipping out his phone and speaking in rapid mandarin.

"So...Sakura...is he your new crush?" Touya asked.

"Shut up, he might hear you!!" Sakura said.

"He can't hear, he's on the phone. So, have you fallen in love?"

"Yah, I think so, but I'm not going to tell him until I resolve things with Hideki. I feel so guilty for all the pain I caused to Hideki."

"I don't know why Li-san would like a kaijou, but he seems to really like you."

"I know that, as they say the eyes are the windows to the soul."

"I can't agree better, but everything in your eyes is reminiscent of a kaijou."

"Well...blah to you!!"

"Heh...I win!!" Touya grinned.

"Whatever...the girl always wins!!"

"Uh-huh...sure..."

"Do you want a repeat of last time with the ice cube." Sakura grinned as she saw Touya wince at the word ice cube. "I see that you haven't forgotten."

"Yah, and I never did repay you for that incident did I?"

"Hello...yah you did...remember...Miss Clown Face?"

"Oh yah..." Touya grinned as he recalled the memory.

"Why did you come to Hong Kong anyway? I thought you and Yukito were going to Christmas together alone?"

"Yukito wanted to give you and otousan your Christmas presents and wish you a merry holiday! He wanted me to accompany him and ended up draging me with him. I kept asking him why he would want to see a kajiou but he kept insisting."

"Aww you actually listen to your boyfriend...how kakkoii!" Sakura giggled.

"Shut up! It's not official, at least not yet..." Touya said looking adoringly at Yukito and Yukito smiled back at him. (A/N: Hope this doesn't bother ppl that don't enjoy umm...yaoi stuff...)

"So Sakura...ready to go? Meiling is going to meet us at the house with Pearl..." Syaoran explained after his conversation.

"I can't wait to tell Pearl about today!!" Sakura exlcaimed.

"Oh yah, that's your other best friend besides Tomoyo, ne?" Touya asked.

"Hai...she's awesome! She's one of my favorite people in the world."

"Aw fudgesicles..." Someone yelped from inside the store.

"Daijoubu ka?" Sakura asked walking inside the store.

"I'm fine, but I dropped a glass vase on the floor. I hope it wasn't broken. Can you check that box on the floor?" The man asked.

"Sure..." Sakura said leaning over and looking in the box. "Oh, you're one lucky man. The vase isn't broken." Sakura handed the vase to the employee. (A/N: Bad bit of foreshadowing, but at least I tried...)

"Xie xie."

"No prob. You'll be fine?"

"Yah..."

"Okay, well I have to go...zai jian!!"

"What was that about?" Syaoran asked.

"One of the employees dropped a glass vase, but luckily it didn't break."

"Hmmm...interesting."

"Where's Touya and Yukito?"

"They left...they wanted to hurry up and meet your otousan."

"Oh...well we'd better get going. Come on!" Sakura said pulling Syaorana toward the parking lot.

~*~

"Syaoran!! You're finally here. I was getting worried." Pearl exclaimed running out of the house and giving him a hug.

"Oh...well of course...I'm fine. Why wouldn't I be?"

"I don't know there could be some predator around waiting to catch its prey. Prey meaning you!"

"Hey Pearl!" Sakura said happily, though looking a little miffed at the hug. "I didn't know the two of you were such close friends."

"What can you say? We've known each other since we were little kids." Pearl stated.

"We may be close friends, but not that close." Syaoran said trying to reassure Sakura that there was nothing romantic between himself and Pearl.

"Hey Meiling!" Sakura called happily seeing that Meiling had come out of the house.

"Hey Sakura and Li-Li!!" Meiling called.

"Stop with the Li-Li already, I'm not 5 anymore!" Syaoran yelled.

"That was a nice little setup Meiling." Sakura winked secretly.

"I hope that two of you got some alone time together." Meiling replied.

"We did, and it was lots of fun!!" Sakura exclaimed and started to tell Meiling everything while going inside the house leaving Pearl and Syaoran alone.

"Let's go with them." Syaoran suggested eagerly.

"Naw...let's spend some alone time together. I haven't seen you all day." Pearl said stroking Syaoran's cheeks.

"Please don't do that Pearl."

"Aww...come on. It never bothered you before, you used to crave my touch. What's happened to you?" Pearl asked.

"My feelings have changed. I'm sorry. I don't feel the same way as I did for you before I moved to Japan. Now I must go. Bye Pearl." Syaoran said.

'It is true. He has fallen for Sakura!! Damn...how dare she take away the one person that brings pleasure and happiness in my life? She'll pay... heh heh I have the perfect plan!!' Pearl thought and drove away to her house.

"So Li-Li...I hear your little date was a success. That's great! Do you two need more alone time after dinner?" Meiling asked mischievously.

"Actually, could you arrange that Meiling?" Syaoran asked.

"Yep...I already have a plan. Just tell Miss Cherry Blossom to stay here with you when I ask who wants to the mall." Meiling winked.

"Xie xie Meiling. I owe you one!!"

"Just don't do anything to hurt Sakura or you'll have to answer to me. I've grown rather attached to Miss Cherry Blossom."

"Don't worry. I'd never do that...she's going to be the one to dump me, I'd never dump her. I'll be in love with her forever. She's my soulmate."

"Awww...my cousin has been struck by Cupid's arrow."

"Aww...shut up!"

"What happened to Pearl?"

"I dunno. We were talking and I came inside. Maybe she's stopping by later."

"How do you think she's going to take all of this? If I remember correctly, she was deeply committed to you."

"Sure, I was attracted to her, but I was never in love with her, nothing like how I feel about Kinomoto-san."

"Well, I have to say it was the opposite for Pearl, when you left for Japan, she locked herself in her room and she starting cutting herself and attempting suicide."

"You're kidding. She liked me that much? I thought it was only a little crush because in the past she's been rather fickle with her boyfriends. What am I going to do Meiling?"

"Well, you could not tell her and act like nothing has happened or you could tell her the truth and face the consequences. Both have positive and negative consequences but its up to you to pick which one is heftier and which decision you want to live with." Meiling replied.

"Crap...I don't know what to do..."

"Wait until you have some alone time, like after dinner, then you guys can talk it over."

"Talk what over, Li-san?" Sakura asked walking towards Syaoran and Meiling.

"What we're going to do after dinner of course. Meiling has arranged a plan for some alone time for us." Syaoran answered.

"Aww...arigato Meiling." Sakura said to Meiling.

"No problem. Anytime. Well I'd better go help my okasan get dinner started. Zai jian." Meiling replied with a wave.

"Well we should go help set the table or something. Come on." Sakura suggested.

"Matte Kinomoto-san! Ano..." Syaoran faltered.

"Yes, Li-san?"

"Ano...when Meiling asks who wants to go to the mall, stay home. That's Meiling's plan to get everyone out of the house so that we can have some alone time."

"Okay." Sakura smiled.

'What am I going to do? I'm stuck. I want to be with Sakura but I don't want Pearl to hurt herself even more. If I tell Kinomoto-san the truth, knowing her personality she'll give up what we have in order to make sure Pearl won't hurt herself any worse. Though I don't know if I could be that selfless. Could I really give up the love of my life to benefit someone else?'

"Come on Li-san!! Let's go help." Sakura said grabbing Syaoran's hand and shaking him out of his reverie.

"Sure."

~*~

"Wow that dinner was awesome!!"

"Yes...oishii!!"

"You should come live with us so we could have your cooking all the time." Touya stated to the cook.

"Would anyone like to go to the mall and go ice skating?" Meiling asked.

"Yah, great idea." Everyone except Sakura and Syaoran chirupped.

"Let's get going then." Meiling suggested.

"Alright." Everyone cheered and started loading into the cars.

"Have fun Sakura and Li Li!!" Meiling said with a wink.

"Bye Meiling, have fun too!!" Sakura and Syaoran chorused.

After shutting the door, Sakura suggests, "Let's go sit on the sofa, Li-san!" Syaoran walked over and sat close to Sakura on the couch.

"It has been such a fun vacation Li-san. I've enjoyed it a lot and it has mainly been because of you." "Yah, well this is the best Christmas vacation I've had in awhile. I'm so glad I'm spending it with you!!" "I'm glad too! I've been reallt happy and able to forget about Hideki!"

"That's good I'm happy for you!!"

"I am too!!"

"I noticed that your friend, Tsukishiro-san eats a lot for such a skinny person."

"I know, sometimes I wish I could have his metabolism."

"Why, are you insinuating that you are fat?"

"Iie...but I wish I could eat everything that he eats without having to worry about gaining weight...you know?"

"Not really...weight isn't really a big issue with guys."

"I guess that's true."

"Besides, I think you're beautiful inside and out!! You are beauty embodied into a human and there's no one more beautiful than you...well except BoA...."

"Hey!" Sakura exclaimed throwing a pillow at Syaoran.

"Only kidding. But seriously, you are like a living vision of a goddess."

"You are such a wonderful guy Syaoran-kun...I'm soo lucky." Sakura said snuggling up to Syaoran and falling asleep.

'That's the first time she's ever called me by my first name!! Aww...she looks like an angel, sleeping like that. Man, this complicates things even more, my feelings for Kinomoto-san have quadrupled. What am I going to do about Pearl? I don't think I could ever give up Kinomto-san now...'

~*~

"Otousan where's that Japanese phone book you have?" Pearl asked.

"Which one?"

"The one that lists the Japanese people in Japan."

"Oh, it's on the bookshelf...it has a blue cover."

"I found it, thanks otousan!"

"What are you going to use for it? Revenge?" Pearl's otousan laughs.

"Precisely." Pearls mutters.

"Nani?"

"Oh nothing." Pearl starts to hum and scans the pages for the 'M's. "Hmmm...where is it...ahhh...here we go. Matsuri. Let's give him a call." Pearl picks up the phone.

TBC........

Gomen it was a litte boring, but I hope you liked it and was worth the wait! BTW, do you think I'm moving too fast through my chapters? Should I slow down or am I going at a good pace? I feel like I'm rushing things, but I have so many ideas of how to write the story, I try to use all of them...

Just a notice, I probably won't update for awhile. I'm going to be busy with school, but if you'd like me to send you a copy of the fifth installment (when I finish) leave your e-mail on your review or e-mail me @ gundamwing4me_4ever@yahoo.com Thanks!!
