After dinner Touya drove Sakura back to her dorms. "Guess I'll see you later?" He asked.

"Yea." She opened the door of the old rusty SUV, "Thank you, for everything."

"You've nothing to thank me for. It's something someone had to tell you eventually."

"Well thank you anyway Touya."

"Anything for my little sister." he paused. "I missed you."

"If I'd known you were gone, I'd have missed you too." She replied, tears welling up in her eyes. "I'm sorry I never knew."

"I'm sorry no one ever told you."

She smiled at her brother, "Goodnight Touya. See you at the airport at, what? 3:30 tomorrow afternoon?"

"Yeah." Sakura began to close the door, "And Sakura," she looked at him, he sighed. "Never mind. Goodnight." She closed the door and he drove away.

-Syaoran-

He stood at the common room window, looking down at Sakura getting out of a rusty old SUV. "Who is this guy? What's he got to do with Sakura? Does she love him the way I......"

"Love her?" a voice came behind him.

Syaoran turned around rapidly. "ERIOL!"

"What Li? Didn't know you were talking out loud?"

"How much did you hear?" Syaoran asked as he lifted Eriol off the ground by the collar of his shirt.

"Chill buddy. And put me down!" Syaoran put him down. "Thank you." Eriol fixed his collar.

"WELL?!?!?!"

"Oh, yea." Eriol grinned at his best friend. "I heard everything."

"Shit." Syaoran backed against the wall and slid down to sit with his head between his knees. "You don't know that I like her, OK?"

"Nope. You don't like her." Eriol grinned.

"Thank you."

"You LOVE her." Syaoran looked up at his best friend. "Syaoran, are you......are you crying?" Eriol grabbed his arm and pulled him to his feet. "Come on, we can't talk here. She'll be coming up in a minute." Syaoran nodded, and looked out the window one last time as Sakura closed the SUV door and turned to come inside, before following Eriol to the elevator and ascending to the roof.

-Sakura-

She walked down the hall towards the mural of 'The Phantom of the Opera', and found her door open, and her best friends inside. She sighed as she dropped her bag on her bed and layed down.

Chiharu came and kneeled next to her. "Sooooooo......How'd it go?"

"Yeah Sakura, I heard you had a meeting with your long lost brother." Tomoyo added as she hung her clean clothes in her closet.

"Yea. His name is Touya Kinomoto. He's been living with my mother's parents since I was just a baby. He told me about what happened to my mother. Something my father never wanted to talk about."

Chiharu giggled. "That's awesome. If you don't mind me changing the subject......"

"Go ahead." Tomoyo and Sakura said together.

"Well......we're leaving on vacation to my family's cabin in a few weeks.......We need to have all our pranks and stuff set, and my family will leave stuff up there for us......Tomoyo......the door."

Tomoyo shut the door, then turned around and said creepily, "Let the torture begin."

Evil giggles echoed down the hall.

-Roof-

"So, Why'd you drag me up here Eriol?" Syaoran asked as he sat on lawn chair that they had put up there when they'd hang out during the fall.

"Well, the fact that you were just CRYING over Sakura is a tip off." Eriol retorted, sitting across from his best friend.

"How can I even possibly compete with that guy. It's obvious that Sakura is crazy about him. The way she looked at him in the mall the other day." He sighed and looked down at his faded jeans and converse high-tops. "It's obvious she," He paused, "She loves him." Another silent tear slid down his face.

"Ok, first of all, you can compete with any guy and win her if you truly want to be with her. Second of all, yes, she is crazy about him, she does love him. But what you......"

"NO! Eriol stop." Syaoran looked up to the blue haired beau, "I wouldn't know what to do......I just......."

"Syaoran Li! Shut the fuck up and let me finish ok?" Eriol shouted. Syaoran's face became cold and emotionless as anger inside him flared to the surface. Eriol stood up and began pacing. "Someone has to put you in your place. You'll never win her heart if you think that you can't." He looked to Syaoran. "Don't look at me like I'm your next kill. Anyway, as I was saying before, what you need to KNOW is that that guy she was with was her brother."

Syaoran was taken back. "Her......Brother?"

"Yes. Touya Kinomoto. I don't know where he came from, all Chiharu told me was that he was Sakura's long lost brother. She met him in the mall the other day. He's some kind of cop. Anyway, she went to dinner with him tonight to talk to her about what happened to their family."

"First I mistook Hayden to be her boyfriend, and then Touya. Both ended up being her brother. Geez Eriol. I'm the jealous type." Syaoran said standing and walking towards the edge of the building.

"Don't be." Eriol said following him. "You didn't see her eyes that first day you two met. I remember you were looking around for your prank box, I'd just met Sakura and you passed by. When you did, she looked down to hide her eyes, but I saw it. She adores you. Maybe she only tells you things because she feels comfortable with you. Maybe you're just another brother to her. Maybe you're more. You'll never know until you tell her how you feel."

Syaoran turned around quickly, an evil glint in his eyes. "I can't tell her too soon. You know me Eriol."

"Yes. Unfortunately I do." Syaoran looked at him again, "I TOLD YOU I WASN'T YOUR NEXT KILL!" Syaoran and Eriol chuckled together. "Just don't mess with her mind TOO much, Little Wolf."

"Bite me Eriol. It's only a matter of time......."
