The Six Couples And Two Bands
By: Dust Of Fire
Chapter 8:
=First of all, welcome to the competition. It's a real pleasure to have you here, now please sit down on your seats and relax as the singing competition begins! =
The loud speaker spoke as the different fans settle down, excited to see the famous people and idols. Then, a man wearing suit and a woman wearing a elegant dress came out, each holding a microphone, the male started to say, "Please off your cell phones and pagers as we present the first item by 'Alice Pink' singing 'Loved By You And Me'." Lots of 'whoa' and 'yay' were heard as the singer stepped out and a melody was played. (Honestly, I made up the singer and the song, as we only want to hear our X'treme and Flower Petals right?)
~*~*~*~*3 hours later*~*~*~*~
"X'treme, you know you are after this, the two hundredth and one item. Mister Yamazaki will go first." Informed a backstage crew. The other famous people were at the backstage seated with a humongous television in front of them that shows what is happening on stage. As we know, X'treme cannot see Flower Petals and Flower Petals cannot see X'treme, as they are a distance away. That is just too bad... but goodness will come in much later.
~*~*~*~*Syaoran POV*~*~*~*~
Finally... finally I got my precious memory back... finally this day is here... finally I know who Sakura is... finally I know that she loves me, and that I love her back... but where on Earth is she? We're singing individually with no partners, but where are the girls?
I stared at the screen as one of then announced, invited Yamazaki up on stage.
~*~*~*~*Normal POV*~*~*~*~
Yamazaki went up on stage with a headset, as an awful feeling of loneliness seized him, he had never been up on stage alone before, no he had not. But he had once, when he was seven years old. He remembered clearly that Chiharu 'dragged' him to sign up for the 'Kids Singing Competition'. Yamazaki plucked up his courage and signaled for the music to start. Many stares he had received yes many... but they bean to sit back and relax, after all, he IS from X'treme, the best in Hong Kong. The audience seemed to enjoy it very fast as the tune of the particular song was fast and it rocks...
Yamazaki:
You might been hurt babe/ That ain't no lie/ You've seen them all come and go, oh/ I remember you told me/ That it made you believe in/ No man, no cry/ Maybe that's why/CHORUS/Every little thing I do/ Never seems enough for you/ You don't wanna lose it again/ But I'm not like them/ Baby, when you finally/ Get to love somebody/ Guess what/ It's gonna be me/ You've got no choice babe/ But to move on and you know/ There ain't no time to waste, / So you're just too blind to see/ But in the end you know it's gonna be me/ You can't deny/ So just tell me why/CHORUS/Every little thing I do/ Never seems enough for you/ You don't wanna lose it again/ But I'm not like them/ Baby, when you finally/ Get to love somebody/ Guess what/ It's gonna be me/BRIDGE 1/ It's gonna be me/ There comes a day/ When I'll be the one/ You'll see/ It's gonna...gonna...gonna...gonna...gonna/ It's gonna be me/BRIDGE 2/ All that I do/ Is not enough for you?/ Don't wanna lose it/ But I'm not like that/ When finally (finally) you get to love/ Guess what, guess what/CHORUS/Every little thing I do/ Never seems enough for you/ You don't wanna lose it again/ But I'm not like them/ Baby, when you finally/ Get to love somebody/ Guess what/ It's gonna be me/ Every little thing I do/ Never seems enough for you/ You don't wanna lose it again/ But I'm not like them/ Baby, when you finally/ Get to love somebody/ Guess what/ It's gonna be me
The song faded and Yamazaki gave a bow that was stylish, he got clapping from the audience, thumbs-up sign and smiles as a reply or should I say, comments of his song. He smiled sadly, 'God Chiharu, I miss you...' There was a tinge of regret in him, on the day that he let her go... Yamazaki walked backstage and handed the set to Zuroi. Zuroi adjusted it as he waited for them to announce his name.
Zuroi walked onto stage and soon after that, the tune started, emotionally, he just started to sing. He blamed himself, blamed himself for letting her go, leave him once again. Naoko... are you nearby? Where are you?
Zuroi:
She's a five foot ten in cat suit/ And bambi eyes,/ Everybody who's staring wouldn't/ Believe that this girl was mine/ I should have known I was wrong/ When I left her for a life in pity but/ They say you never miss/ The water until it's gone (yeah)/PRE-CHORUS 1/Guess I failed to love you/ And you're taking it out tonight/CHORUS/How am I supposed to leave you now?/ When you're looking like that/ I can't believe what I just gave away/ Now I can't take it back/ I don't wanna get lost/ I don't wanna live my life without you/ How am I supposed to leave you now?/ When you're looking like that/ She's all dressed up for glamour and/ Rock and roll/ Wanna squeeze her real tight/ Get out of this place/ If only I could take control/ But she's out of my reach forever/ And just a week ago she lied/ Next to me/ It's so ironic how I had to lose/ Just to see/PRE-CHORUS 2/That I failed to love you/ And you're taking it out tonight/CHORUS/ How am I supposed to leave you now?/ When you're looking like that/ I can't believe what I just gave away/ Now I can't take it back/ I don't wanna get lost/ I don't wanna live my life without you/ How am I supposed to leave you now?/ When you're looking like that/BRIDGE/ I don't wanna forget you/ I don't even wanna try/ How am I supposed to walk on by?/ When you're looking like that/PRE-CHORUS 3/ How am I supposed to leave you? (When you're looking like that)/ I can't believe what I just gave away (Oh no, no)/ Cause I can't take it back, I'm lost/ I don't wanna live my life without you (Live my life without you)/ How am I supposed to leave you now?/ When you're looking like that/CHORUS/How am I supposed to leave you now?/ When you're looking like that/ I can't believe what I just gave away/ Now I can't take it back/ I don't wanna get lost/ I don't wanna live my life without you/ How am I supposed to leave you now?/ When you're looking like that
The girls at the backstage 'sat rooted to their chair'. 'They are here...' Naoko fought down her despair, hoping Zuroi would end his song. No, she had not forgotten those happy memories they shared together. Her eyes, brimming with tears of regret, in leaving him, though he did nothing wrong, Naoko sobbed sorrowfully.
Zuroi:
CHORUS/How am I supposed to leave you now?/ When you're looking like that/ I can't believe what I just gave away/ Now I can't take it back/ I don't wanna get lost/ I don't wanna live my life without you/ How am I supposed to leave you now?/ When you're looking like that.
Although Meilin was the toughest girl in the group, she was on the verge of tears as she saw Yoshi on stage, singing. A sudden chill came over he, what if he doesn't forgive her? What of he ditched her for someone else? Well, let him be... she sat back and relax, staring at the screen. In details, staring at his face...
(Fine, I'm getting a headache...)
Yoshi:
Just a smile and the rain is gone/ Can hardly believe it (yeah)/ There's an angel standing next to me/ Reaching for my heart
Just a smile and there's no way back/ Can hardly believe it (yeah)/ But there's an angel calling me/ Reaching for my heart
I know, that I'll be ok now/ This time it's real
CHORUS/ I lay my love on you/ It's all I wanna do// Every time I breathe/ I feel brand new/ You open up my heart/ Show me all your love, and walk right through/ As I lay my love on you
I was lost in a lonely place/ Could hardly believe it (yeah)/ Holding on to yesterday/ Far, far too long
Now I believe it's ok cause/ This time it's real
CHORUS/I lay my love on you/ It's all I wanna do/ Every time I breathe I feel brand new/ You open up my heart/ Show me all your love, and walk right through (oh yeah)/ As I lay my love on you
I never knew that love could feel so good/ Like a once in a lifetime/ You change my world
CHORUS/ I lay my love on you/ You make me feel brand new/ Show me your love and walk right through (oh, yeah)/ As I lay my love on you
CHORUS/ I lay my love on you/ You make me feel brand new/ You open up my heart/ Show me all your love and walk right through/ As I lay my love on you
CHORUS/ I lay my love on you/ It's all I wanna do/ Every time I breathe I feel brand new/ You open up my heart/ Show me all your love, and walk right through/ As I lay my love on you
CHORUS/ I lay my love on you (I lay my love on you)/ You make me feel brand new/ You open up my heart/ Show me all your love, and walk right through/ As I lay my love on you/ As I lay my love on you
Rika wept in agony as Ryan stepped on stage. She remembered when he used to scare her in any other way, or kissing her just so suddenly. Rika smiled sadly at that 'incident', hoping he can forgive her. Then she realized that the sing he is singing, was the whole song of their mini quarrel in singing version when they had first met after a long time.
Ryan:
Once we had it all for the taking/ Love was just me and you You better think twice/ About the plans that you're making/ Of splitting the world in two
Put your mind in doubt/ Did you think about?/ Everything that we're missing/ Don't you make me see?/ What is best for me?/ 'Cause I just won't listen baby
CHORUS/ No no, no no/ I don't need nobody/ Anyone to take your place but you/ No no, no no/ I just couldn't fall for anyone new/ Nobody but you
Girl you are the life that I'm living/ I just can't go without you/ Let's make it all right/ Wake up to what we've been given/ Remember the things we've been through
Put your mind in doubt/ Did you think about?/ Everything that we're missing/ Don't you make me see?/ What is best for me?/ 'Cause I just won't listen baby
I can't imagine/ The two of us apart/ Can't find a reason/ 'Cause I still believe/ There's no one like you/ That is why I need/ Nobody but you
Eriol:
Day after day/ Time passed away/ And I just can't get you off my mind/ Nobody knows, I hide it inside/ I keep on searching but I can't find/ The courage to show to letting you know/ I've never felt so much love before
And once again I'm thinking about/ Taking the easy way out
CHORUS/ But if I let you go I will never know/ What my life would be holding you close to me/ Will I ever see you smiling back at me?/ How will I know?/ If I let you go?
Night after night I hear myself say/ Why can't this feeling just fade away?/ There's no one like you/ You speak to my heart/ It's such a shame/ We're worlds apart
I'm too shy to ask, I'm too proud to lose/ But sooner or later I gotta choose
And once again I'm thinking about/ Taking the easy way out
CHORUS/ But if I let you go I will never know/ What my life would be holding you close to me/ Will I ever see you smiling back at me?/ How will I know?/ If I let you go?/ (If I let you go. ooh, baby.)
And once again I'm thinking about/ Taking the easy way out
CHORUS/ But if I let you go I will never know/ What my life would be holding you close to me/ Will I ever see you smiling back at me?/ How will I know?/ If I let you go?
Tomoyo's eyes were puffy and red after all the crying. She would never forget his love, forget his face, forget his kindness, forget his mysterious ways. Tears started to roll down her rosy cheeks again. God, even if he hates her now, she will still love him.
~*~*~*~*Syaoran's POV*~*~*~*~
Ah... a 10 minutes interval then its my turn. Shit, I don't know what to sing, what should I do? I've been sitting there for the past three hours and fifty minutes composing a song, but instead, I thought of Sakura... god, where are you? I remembered Tomoyo telling me that you are caught in the fire... what happened? Damn it, what am I to sing? Ah! So confused, headache! After a few minutes of thinking, I finally know what I want to sing.
~*~*~*~*Interval over, End of Syaoran POV*~*~*~*~
Syaoran put on his headset and walked to the middle of the stage after whispering the tune to the DJ. He took a deep breadth as the music starts.
Syaoran:
Ohhh.
Don't pretend you're sorry/ You know you're not/ You know you got the power to make me weak inside/ And girl you leave me breathless/ But it's ok/ Cause you are my survival/ Now hear me say...
I can't imagine life without your love/ And even forever don't seem like long enough
CHORUS/ 'Cause every time I breathe I take you in/ And my heart beats again/ Baby I can't help it/ You keep me drowning in your love/ Every time I try to rise above/ I'm swept away by love Baby I can't help it/ You keep me drowning in your love
Maybe I'm a drifter/ Maybe not/ Cause I have known the safety of floating freely in your arms/ I don't need another lifeline/ It's not for me/ Cause only you can save me/ Oh, can't you see
I can't imagine life without your love/ And even forever don't seem like long enough/ (Don't seem like long enough, yeah)
CHORUS/ Cause every time I breathe I take you in/ And my heart beats again/ Baby I can't help it/ You keep me drowning in your love/ And every time I try to rise above/ I'm swept away by love/ Baby I can't help it/ You keep me drowning in your love
BRIDGE/ Go on and pull me under/ Cover me with dreams, yeah/ Love me mouth to mouth now/ You know I can't resist/ Cause you're the air that I breathe
CHORUS/ Every time I breathe I take you in / (Every time I breathe, yeah)/ And my heart beats again/ Baby I can't help it / (Baby I can't help it)/ Keep me drowning in your love/ And every time I try to rise above/ I'm swept away by love/ Baby I can't help it / (Baby I can't help it)/ Keep me drowning in your love / (Love......)
Baby I can't help it/ Keep me drowning in your love / (Keep me drowning in your love)
Whoa,/ Got me drowning
Keep me drowning in your love
Baby I can't help it / (I can't help it, can't help it, no no)
CHORUS/ Every time I breathe I take you in/ (I do)/ And my heart beats again / (Ohhh)/ Baby I can't help it/ (Baby I can't help it)/ Keep me drowning in your love/ Every time I try to rise above/ (Every time I try to rise, rise above)
Sakura's ears twitched as she heard the voice. 'I knew it was familiar! But, who's this?' She shrugged and continued composing her song. Down on stage, Lyra wondered about the guy who was singing on stage. There's something mysterious about this guy... Li Syaoran... Syaoran in Chinese is Xiao Lang, English is Small Wolf. She gasped loudly, causing the people around her to stare with irritating faced. Lyra muttered a 'gomen' and continued with her thoughts...could he... could he be that someone? Someone that Ying-fa admired? Xiao Lang... Small wolf, he must be...
Syaoran:
I'm swept away by love/ Baby I can't help it/ You keep me drowning in.... your love
A guy in black suit with a 'proper' microphone came up right after Syaoran went in. He was grinning from ear to ear, as he announced, "That's the last of the X'treme! Wonderful songs they sing! Now, it's the last but definitely not the least group, Flower Petals!" There were screams of joy from of course, their number one fans. They 'calm' down as Chiharu stepped out. But just as Chiharu stepped out, the X'treme went out for snacks, and will come back in time for the prize-giving presentation.
Chiharu looked everywhere down on stage, hoping she will find the person she is looking for, hoping he would be there, supporting her. She hung her head as she sighed, waiting for the music to start. So many things had happened after they had met, are they not fated to be together? Not destined?
Chiharu:
Got introduced to you by a friend/ You were cute and all that, baby you set the trend/ Yes you did oh/ The next thing I know we're down at the cinema/ We're sitting there; you start kissing me/ What's that about?
You're moving too fast, I don't understand you/ I'm not ready yet, baby I can't pretend/ No I can't/ The best I can do is tell you to talk to me/ It's possible, eventual/ Love will find a way./ Love will find a way.
CHORUS/ Don't say you love me/ You don't even know me/ If you really want me/ Then give me some time/ Don't go there, baby/ Not before I'm ready/ Don't say your heart's in a hurry/It's not like we're gonna get married/ Give me; give me some time
Here's how I play, here's where you stand/ Here's what to prove to get any further than where it's been/ I'll make it clear, not gonna tell you twice/ Take it slow, you're pushing me/ You're pushing me away/ Pushing me away...
CHORUS/ Don't say you love me/ You don't even know me/ If you really want me/ Then give me some time/ Don't go there, baby/ Not before I'm ready/ Don't say your heart's in a hurry/It's not like we're gonna get married/ Give me; give me some time
Oooo, na, na, na, na, na, na, na/ Na, na, na, na, na, na/ Oooo, na, na, na, na, na, na, na/ Na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Don't say you love me/ You don't even know me baby...
Baby don't say love me, baby/ Give me some time...
CHORUS/ Don't say you love me/ You don't even know me/ If you really want me/ Then give me some time/ Don't go there, baby/ Not before I'm ready/ Don't say your heart's in a hurry/It's not like we're gonna get married/ Give me; give me some time
CHORUS/ Don't say you love me/ You don't even know me/ If you really want me/ Then give me some time/ Don't go there, baby/ Not before I'm ready/ Don't say your heart's in a hurry/It's not like we're gonna get married/ Give me; give me some time
Naoko:
Well I wonder,/ Could it be? When I was dreaming 'bout you baby/ You were dreaming of me Call me crazy,/ Call me blind,/ To still be suffering is stupid after all of this time
Did I lose my love to someone better?/ And does she love you like I do, I do/ You know I really really do
CHORUS/ Well hey... so much I need to say/ Been lonely since the day The day you went away / So sad but true / For me there's only you/ Been lonely since the day,/ The day you went away./ Go On, Yay... Oh...
I remember - date and time/ September 22nd Sunday twenty-five after nine/ In the doorway/ With your case/ No longer shouting at each other/ There were tears on our faces
And we were letting go of something special/ Something we'll never have again, I know/ I guess I really really know
Well hey... so much I need to say/ Been lonely since the day The day you went away / So sad but true / For me there's only you/ Been lonely since the day,/ The day you went away./
Oh oh oh/ Did I lose my love to someone better?/ And does she love you like I do, I do/ You know I really really do
Well hey... so much I need to say/ Been lonely since the day The day you went away / So sad but true / For me there's only you/ Been lonely since the day,/ The day you went away./
BRIDGE/ Why do we never know what we've got till it's gone/ How could I carry on?/ The day you went away/ Cause I've been missing you so much I have to say/ Been crying since the day/ The day you went away/ The day you went away/ The Day you went away.../ Go on, Yay... Oh...
Rika:
Mirror, Mirror lie to me./ Show me what I wanna see./ Mirror, Mirror lie to me.
Why don't I like the girl I see?/ The one who's standing right in front of me?/ Why don't I think before I speak? (I speak)/ I should have listened to that voice inside me./ I must be stupid, must be crazy, must be out of my mind/ To say the kind of things I said last night
CHORUS/ Mirror, Mirror hanging on the wall,/ You don't have to tell me,/ Who's the biggest fool of all?/ Mirror, Mirror I wish you could lie to me./ And bring my baby back,/ Bring my baby back to me.
Mirror, Mirror lie to me/ Show me what I wanna see (to me)/ Mirror, Mirror lie to me/ Show me what I wanna see
Why did I let you walk away?/ When all I had to do was say 'I'm sorry'./ I let my pride get in the way (get in the way)/ In the heat of the moment I was to blame./ I must be stupid, must be crazy, must be out of my mind/ Now in the cold light of the day I realize
CHORUS/ Mirror, Mirror hanging on the wall,/ You don't have to tell me,/ Who's the biggest fool of all?/ Mirror, Mirror I wish you could lie to me./ And bring my baby back,/ Bring my baby back to me.
BRIDGE/ If only wishes could be dreams,/ And all my dreams could come true./ There would be two of us standing here in front of you./ If you could show me that someone that I used to be./ Bring back my baby, my baby to me (my baby to me)
CHORUS/ Mirror, Mirror hanging on the wall, (Oh, oh)/ You don't have to tell me,/ Who's the biggest fool of all?/ Mirror, Mirror I wish you could lie to me./ And bring my baby back,/ Bring my baby back to me. (My baby back)
CHORUS/ Mirror, Mirror hanging on the wall, (baby, baby)/ You don't have to tell me,/ Who's the biggest fool of all? (I'm the biggest fool of all)/ Mirror, Mirror I wish you could lie to me. (Lie to me)/ And bring my baby back, (Bring my baby back)/ Bring my baby back (Baby back, baby back) to me.
Mirror, Mirror lie to me/ Show me what I wanna see/ Mirror, Mirror lie to me (to me he he)/ Mirror, Mirror lie to me show me what I wanna see./ Mirror, Mirror lie to me
Meilin sighed as the others did, sad and angry that the guys, especially Yoshi went right after their songs. Will they get to meet again? 'Stupid Yoshi, leaving me... alone.'
Meilin:
Every time I think I've had enough of you/ I take you back again Not because I need a friend/ Just because I can't pretend/ Like the others do/ You think you're really serious/ Clever and mysterious/ Talking like you're dangerous/ Talking like a fool
Every day there's someone else/ Who wants to get with me I'm telling you/ If you know what's good for you/ Treat me like you used to do/ Love me like before
PRE-CHORUS 1/ 'Cos all I can do is watch and wonder/ Where the boy I know has gone/
You say that you want me, well it's/ Time to tell your friends where they belong
CHORUS/ You can find it in your heart/ Give a little love/ Have a little faith/ In the two of us/ You can find it in your soul/ Give a little love Have a little faith/ In the two of us
PRE-CHORUS/ 'Cos all I can do is watch and wonder/ Where the boy I knew has gone
Little boy I don't want anything to do with you/ Get on your knees/ I'm the one you have to please/ Not the ones you want to be/ I don't think you're cool
PRE-CHORUS 2/ 'Cos soon you can only watch and wonder/ Where the girl you knew has gone
And then you will realize that/ Everything you did to me was wrong
CHORUS/ You can find it in your heart/ Give a little love/ Have a little faith/ In the two of us/ You can find it in your soul/ Give a little love Have a little faith/ In the two of us
PRE-CHORUS 2/ 'Cos soon you can only watch and wonder/ Where the girl you knew has gone
BRIDGE/ And do you really wanna lose a friend/ You gotta understand or it has to end/ 'Cos I don't wanna wait for you anymore/ Can't take it anymore
CHORUS/ You can find it in your heart/ Give a little love/ Have a little faith/ In the two of us/ You can find it in your soul/ Give a little love Have a little faith/ In the two of us
Tomoyo:
For all those times you stood by me/ For all the truth that you made me see/ For all the joy you brought to my life/ For all the wrong that you made right/ For every dream you made come true/ For all the love I found in you/ I'll be forever thankful baby/ You're the one who held me up/ Never let me fall/ You're the one who saw me through, through it all
CHORUS/ You were my strength when I was weak/ You were my voice when I couldn't speak/ You were my eyes when I couldn't see/ You saw the best there was in me/ Lifted me up when I couldn't reach/ You gave me faith 'coz you believed/ I'm everything I am/ Because you loved me
You gave me wings and made me fly/ You touched my hand I could touch the sky/ I lost my faith, you gave it back to me/ You said no star was out of reach/ You stood by me and I stood tall/ I had your love I had it all/ I'm grateful for each day you gave me/ Maybe I don't know that much/ But I know this much is true/ I was blessed because I was loved by you
CHORUS/ You were my strength when I was weak/ You were my voice when I couldn't speak/ You were my eyes when I couldn't see/ You saw the best there was in me/ Lifted me up when I couldn't reach/ You gave me faith 'coz you believed/ I'm everything I am/ Because you loved me
BRIDGE/ You were always there for me/ The tender wind that carried me/ A light in the dark shining your love into my life/ You've been my inspiration/ Through the lies you were the truth/ My world is a better place because of you
CHORUS/ You were my strength when I was weak/ You were my voice when I couldn't speak/ You were my eyes when I couldn't see/ You saw the best there was in me/ Lifted me up when I couldn't reach/ You gave me faith 'coz you believed/ I'm everything I am/ Because you loved me
I'm everything I am/ Because you loved me
She did not see Eriol downstage. Tomoyo ran back in to search thoroughly for him. So many months... she missed him... he couldn't have forgot her, could he? He isn't so mean, is he? Where is he? God, he left her... once again...
The Flower Petals took their bags when they heard the guy said, "Lets welcome... Kinomoto Sakura!!" Shouts of happiness were heard, they must have missed Sakura. The five girls stood still when they saw a girl wearing a pink dress walking out, auburn hair and emerald eyes. They stared with wide-eyes, Sakura... she's back! They leaned against the wall that is next to the main door to the opening.
Sakura:
I thought you were a friend of mine but I was wrong/ You tried to fit in to arms where I belong/ You moved right in behind my back/ Everyone knows friends don't do that
Just nice, the X'treme opened the door and went in. They stared at the person singing as they closed the door. They leaned against on the wall that is on the OTHER side of the door. Syaoran stared at her with his amber eyes, there she is...there she is...
Sakura:
I thought you were somebody I could trust/ You always said you were happy for us/ How could you go and break my heart?/ When you knew all along he was mine from the start
Eriol felt that it is too squeezed and moved more towards the door, giving himself more space. Tomoyo too, was the one nearer to the door. She moved more nearer to the door, as she was getting hot. Now, Eriol and Tomoyo are standing side by side. Not noticing each other, as they were busy looking and hearing Sakura singing. Eriol, not knowingly, accidentally stepped on someone's foot, he sweat dropped, embarrassed to move his feet away. Tomoyo flew with rage and controlled herself while whispering, "You know its rude to step on a lady's foot..." They did not turn to look at each other, still listening to the song, as well as the others. Eriol smirked through the dark and answered, "No. I always step on my girlfriend's feet." Tomoyo grinned as she stared at Sakura, "I pity your girlfriend, my boyfriend always step on my foot, stupid him." Eriol folded his arms and said, "Count that boy clever and you, stupid." Tomoyo smiled sadly and looked up at the ceiling, "I wish he could step my foot as many times as he want if he is here, by my side. Oh well, at least Sakura is back.
Sakura:
CHORUS/ He is everything to me/ And you know were meant to be/ He's my baby/ Don't mess with my love/ Take everything I own/ Ooh, just leave that boy alone/ He's my baby/ Don't mess with my/ Mess with my love/ Don't mess with my love
You came right over and looked in my eyes/ You said the stories were rumors and lies/ And I wish I could believe in you/ But I'm sorry to say he told me the truth
CHORUS/ He is everything to me/ And you know were meant to be/ He's my baby/ Don't mess with my love/ Take everything I own/ Ooh, just leave that boy alone/ He's my baby/ Don't mess with my/ Mess with my love/ Don't mess with my love
This time, Eriol turned to look at Tomoyo and Tomoyo at Eriol, they gasped and stood rooted to the ground. "To...Tomo...Tomoyo!" Tomoyo nodded restlessly and cried, Eriol smiled and pulled Tomoyo towards him, embracing her. "Tomoyo, how much I miss you..." The guys stepped out and finally, they spotted the girls. Each hugged their own loved ones... Meilin, hitting Yoshi's chest as he hugged her, "You're mean, leaving me. Big meanie!" Naoko, staring into Zuroi's eyes as he stared into hers. Chiharu, giggled as Yamazaki told his lies, god, how she missed hearing that, Yamazaki then smiled down at her and embraced. Rika, telling Ryan how much she misses him. Ryan replied, "I miss you more than you miss me." "I miss you much more than you miss me." "I miss you much much more than you miss me." Syaoran chuckled at them, looked at Sakura, smiling one of his rare smiles.
Sakura:
BRIDGE/ Friends don't do what you do/ There's no excuse/ I'm so confused/ I thought you cared about me/ But now I see/ All you care is about is you
CHORUS/ He is everything to me/ And you know were meant to be/ He's my baby/ Don't mess with my love/ Take everything I own/ Ooh, just leave that boy alone/ He's my baby/ Don't mess with my/ Mess with my love
She thanked the crowd as she walked backstage, not before she stared into Syaoran's eyes. Sakura rushed down and looked for Lyra, waving her to come out to the side. Lyra sighed and went over to Sakura who hugged her immediately, "Arigato, Lyra! Arigato! Without you, I won't be here, Arigato!" Lyra cried and embraced her, "Ying-fa...um, Sakura..." "Ying-fa will do." Lyra wiped her tears and hugged her tighter. "I'm going to miss you. Ying-fa, don't forget me. I won't stay any longer. Thank god you got back your memory. Sayonara, Ying-fa..." Lyra ran out of the door, passing the five hugging couples. "Lyra... don't go..."
"The top six winners! Congratulations to... (Drum roll) Naoko and Zuroi, Meilin and Yoshi, Rika and Ryan, Chiharu and Yamazaki, Tomoyo and Eriol and Sakura and Syaoran!!"
The twelve of them looked shocked as they walked up the stage. Finally, amber met emerald. They took the trophy together, bowing. Syaoran placed the trophy on the floor and closed his eyes. Sakura tiptoed a little, she too, closing her eyes. Lips met... 'Oohs' and 'Ahs' are heard form the audience. They kissed for a long time when Tomoyo whispered to them, "You're the first couple of us who kissed, how fortunate..." They two broke apart and blushed like two reddest tomatoes. 'God, we're in public, with so many people...' The suddenly, the audience clapped the loudest ever heard. The six couples all raised their trophy high as screams and shouts were blasting, and balloons of different colors floating down from above.

"Hey, that's mine!"
"No, mine!"
"Is not!"
"Is to!"
The garden was a beautiful sight. Tress stood up high, grass neatly mowed, pretty flowers were growing too. There was a round wooden table with a striped umbrella in the middle, few chairs around it. There was also a swimming pool and a playground. Two kids were seen fighting over a ball. One was a girl around six, with two plaited pigtails and another girl with a ponytail and raven hair, she was around five.
"Miyuki, its mine! Mummy bought it for me. Aunty Chiharu bought you lots of toys, go play with them!" The girl with a ponytail shouted as she applied more force. "But Takami, Aunty Tomoyo said I could play with it too!" The girl known as Miyuki answered. Then, a boy that looked like Takami walked over. He had navy blue hair and glasses. "What's happening?" Takami protested. "Onii-chan! This is my ball!"
Meanwhile, Naoko and her daughter were sitting under a cherry blossom tree. Naoko was reading the story [[Cinderella]]. Her daughter, Zuko had black long hair and glasses. "Cinderella was shocked when the big clock struck midnight, she remembered what her fairy godmother had said." "Momma, Cinderella is so poor thing, what about her prince?" Naoko smiled and patted Zuko's head, "Read and see..."
Xiaohu and Crystal were up a cherry blossom tree. Xiaohu, who was seven, had amber eyes and messy chestnut hair, just like his father. Crystal, who was one year younger than Xiaohu, had brown eyes and long, straight brown hair. Xiaohu was blowing the harmonica while Crystal was blowing the flute. Together, they made a sweet, slow lullaby.
Sakura came out of the mansion and shouted, "Lunch's ready!" Tomoyo and Eriol also came out; they ran over to stop their children and Chiharu's child fighting. "Takami Hiiragizawa! Miyuki Takashi! Neo Hiiragizawa! Stop!" Tomoyo scolded as she tried to pull Takami away while Eriol pulled Miyuki, he shouted, "Neo! Knock it off!" Neo broke off and said, "Fine, I was only trying to break them off." Tomoyo sighed and carried Takami while Eriol carried Miyuki and Neo carried the ball.
Sakura and Naoko gathered the children and went inside for lunch.
~*~*~*~*Eating Table*~*~*~*~
Meilin walked down the stairs with Yoshi walking behind her. Meilin was carrying a two-year-old baby boy named Yei-shi. Another kid came running down the stairs. He was Amber, Yamazaki's son. His parents are behind him, telling him to be careful not to fall... Ryan and Rika were already downstairs. "Okay! Let's eat!" Syaoran took a nugget for Sakura while Xiaohu took one for Crystal. (Rika's daughter)
They were told that Lyra, Eileen and Evelyn had met and become best of friends. Sakura's family were informed and lived on, just without Sakura, although she sent letters to them. They had come to visit once, in Li's private jet, for their wedding and the birth of Xiaohu. Sakura never met Lyra again after the day she had left; she wished her good health and good life. Mou, life is so nice...

The Six Couples And Two Bands
By: Dust Of Fire
Chapter 8:
=First of all, welcome to the competition. It's a real pleasure to have you here, now please sit down on your seats and relax as the singing competition begins! =
The loud speaker spoke as the different fans settle down, excited to see the famous people and idols. Then, a man wearing suit and a woman wearing a elegant dress came out, each holding a microphone, the male started to say, "Please off your cell phones and pagers as we present the first item by 'Alice Pink' singing 'Loved By You And Me'." Lots of 'whoa' and 'yay' were heard as the singer stepped out and a melody was played. (Honestly, I made up the singer and the song, as we only want to hear our X'treme and Flower Petals right?)
~*~*~*~*3 hours later*~*~*~*~
"X'treme, you know you are after this, the two hundredth and one item. Mister Yamazaki will go first." Informed a backstage crew. The other famous people were at the backstage seated with a humongous television in front of them that shows what is happening on stage. As we know, X'treme cannot see Flower Petals and Flower Petals cannot see X'treme, as they are a distance away. That is just too bad... but goodness will come in much later.
~*~*~*~*Syaoran POV*~*~*~*~
Finally... finally I got my precious memory back... finally this day is here... finally I know who Sakura is... finally I know that she loves me, and that I love her back... but where on Earth is she? We're singing individually with no partners, but where are the girls?
I stared at the screen as one of then announced, invited Yamazaki up on stage.
~*~*~*~*Normal POV*~*~*~*~
Yamazaki went up on stage with a headset, as an awful feeling of loneliness seized him, he had never been up on stage alone before, no he had not. But he had once, when he was seven years old. He remembered clearly that Chiharu 'dragged' him to sign up for the 'Kids Singing Competition'. Yamazaki plucked up his courage and signaled for the music to start. Many stares he had received yes many... but they bean to sit back and relax, after all, he IS from X'treme, the best in Hong Kong. The audience seemed to enjoy it very fast as the tune of the particular song was fast and it rocks...
Yamazaki:
You might been hurt babe/ That ain't no lie/ You've seen them all come and go, oh/ I remember you told me/ That it made you believe in/ No man, no cry/ Maybe that's why/CHORUS/Every little thing I do/ Never seems enough for you/ You don't wanna lose it again/ But I'm not like them/ Baby, when you finally/ Get to love somebody/ Guess what/ It's gonna be me/ You've got no choice babe/ But to move on and you know/ There ain't no time to waste, / So you're just too blind to see/ But in the end you know it's gonna be me/ You can't deny/ So just tell me why/CHORUS/Every little thing I do/ Never seems enough for you/ You don't wanna lose it again/ But I'm not like them/ Baby, when you finally/ Get to love somebody/ Guess what/ It's gonna be me/BRIDGE 1/ It's gonna be me/ There comes a day/ When I'll be the one/ You'll see/ It's gonna...gonna...gonna...gonna...gonna/ It's gonna be me/BRIDGE 2/ All that I do/ Is not enough for you?/ Don't wanna lose it/ But I'm not like that/ When finally (finally) you get to love/ Guess what, guess what/CHORUS/Every little thing I do/ Never seems enough for you/ You don't wanna lose it again/ But I'm not like them/ Baby, when you finally/ Get to love somebody/ Guess what/ It's gonna be me/ Every little thing I do/ Never seems enough for you/ You don't wanna lose it again/ But I'm not like them/ Baby, when you finally/ Get to love somebody/ Guess what/ It's gonna be me
The song faded and Yamazaki gave a bow that was stylish, he got clapping from the audience, thumbs-up sign and smiles as a reply or should I say, comments of his song. He smiled sadly, 'God Chiharu, I miss you...' There was a tinge of regret in him, on the day that he let her go... Yamazaki walked backstage and handed the set to Zuroi. Zuroi adjusted it as he waited for them to announce his name.
Zuroi walked onto stage and soon after that, the tune started, emotionally, he just started to sing. He blamed himself, blamed himself for letting her go, leave him once again. Naoko... are you nearby? Where are you?
Zuroi:
She's a five foot ten in cat suit/ And bambi eyes,/ Everybody who's staring wouldn't/ Believe that this girl was mine/ I should have known I was wrong/ When I left her for a life in pity but/ They say you never miss/ The water until it's gone (yeah)/PRE-CHORUS 1/Guess I failed to love you/ And you're taking it out tonight/CHORUS/How am I supposed to leave you now?/ When you're looking like that/ I can't believe what I just gave away/ Now I can't take it back/ I don't wanna get lost/ I don't wanna live my life without you/ How am I supposed to leave you now?/ When you're looking like that/ She's all dressed up for glamour and/ Rock and roll/ Wanna squeeze her real tight/ Get out of this place/ If only I could take control/ But she's out of my reach forever/ And just a week ago she lied/ Next to me/ It's so ironic how I had to lose/ Just to see/PRE-CHORUS 2/That I failed to love you/ And you're taking it out tonight/CHORUS/ How am I supposed to leave you now?/ When you're looking like that/ I can't believe what I just gave away/ Now I can't take it back/ I don't wanna get lost/ I don't wanna live my life without you/ How am I supposed to leave you now?/ When you're looking like that/BRIDGE/ I don't wanna forget you/ I don't even wanna try/ How am I supposed to walk on by?/ When you're looking like that/PRE-CHORUS 3/ How am I supposed to leave you? (When you're looking like that)/ I can't believe what I just gave away (Oh no, no)/ Cause I can't take it back, I'm lost/ I don't wanna live my life without you (Live my life without you)/ How am I supposed to leave you now?/ When you're looking like that/CHORUS/How am I supposed to leave you now?/ When you're looking like that/ I can't believe what I just gave away/ Now I can't take it back/ I don't wanna get lost/ I don't wanna live my life without you/ How am I supposed to leave you now?/ When you're looking like that
The girls at the backstage 'sat rooted to their chair'. 'They are here...' Naoko fought down her despair, hoping Zuroi would end his song. No, she had not forgotten those happy memories they shared together. Her eyes, brimming with tears of regret, in leaving him, though he did nothing wrong, Naoko sobbed sorrowfully.
Zuroi:
CHORUS/How am I supposed to leave you now?/ When you're looking like that/ I can't believe what I just gave away/ Now I can't take it back/ I don't wanna get lost/ I don't wanna live my life without you/ How am I supposed to leave you now?/ When you're looking like that.
Although Meilin was the toughest girl in the group, she was on the verge of tears as she saw Yoshi on stage, singing. A sudden chill came over he, what if he doesn't forgive her? What of he ditched her for someone else? Well, let him be... she sat back and relax, staring at the screen. In details, staring at his face...
(Fine, I'm getting a headache...)
Yoshi:
Just a smile and the rain is gone/ Can hardly believe it (yeah)/ There's an angel standing next to me/ Reaching for my heart
Just a smile and there's no way back/ Can hardly believe it (yeah)/ But there's an angel calling me/ Reaching for my heart
I know, that I'll be ok now/ This time it's real
CHORUS/ I lay my love on you/ It's all I wanna do// Every time I breathe/ I feel brand new/ You open up my heart/ Show me all your love, and walk right through/ As I lay my love on you
I was lost in a lonely place/ Could hardly believe it (yeah)/ Holding on to yesterday/ Far, far too long
Now I believe it's ok cause/ This time it's real
CHORUS/I lay my love on you/ It's all I wanna do/ Every time I breathe I feel brand new/ You open up my heart/ Show me all your love, and walk right through (oh yeah)/ As I lay my love on you
I never knew that love could feel so good/ Like a once in a lifetime/ You change my world
CHORUS/ I lay my love on you/ You make me feel brand new/ Show me your love and walk right through (oh, yeah)/ As I lay my love on you
CHORUS/ I lay my love on you/ You make me feel brand new/ You open up my heart/ Show me all your love and walk right through/ As I lay my love on you
CHORUS/ I lay my love on you/ It's all I wanna do/ Every time I breathe I feel brand new/ You open up my heart/ Show me all your love, and walk right through/ As I lay my love on you
CHORUS/ I lay my love on you (I lay my love on you)/ You make me feel brand new/ You open up my heart/ Show me all your love, and walk right through/ As I lay my love on you/ As I lay my love on you
Rika wept in agony as Ryan stepped on stage. She remembered when he used to scare her in any other way, or kissing her just so suddenly. Rika smiled sadly at that 'incident', hoping he can forgive her. Then she realized that the sing he is singing, was the whole song of their mini quarrel in singing version when they had first met after a long time.
Ryan:
Once we had it all for the taking/ Love was just me and you You better think twice/ About the plans that you're making/ Of splitting the world in two
Put your mind in doubt/ Did you think about?/ Everything that we're missing/ Don't you make me see?/ What is best for me?/ 'Cause I just won't listen baby
CHORUS/ No no, no no/ I don't need nobody/ Anyone to take your place but you/ No no, no no/ I just couldn't fall for anyone new/ Nobody but you
Girl you are the life that I'm living/ I just can't go without you/ Let's make it all right/ Wake up to what we've been given/ Remember the things we've been through
Put your mind in doubt/ Did you think about?/ Everything that we're missing/ Don't you make me see?/ What is best for me?/ 'Cause I just won't listen baby
I can't imagine/ The two of us apart/ Can't find a reason/ 'Cause I still believe/ There's no one like you/ That is why I need/ Nobody but you
Eriol:
Day after day/ Time passed away/ And I just can't get you off my mind/ Nobody knows, I hide it inside/ I keep on searching but I can't find/ The courage to show to letting you know/ I've never felt so much love before
And once again I'm thinking about/ Taking the easy way out
CHORUS/ But if I let you go I will never know/ What my life would be holding you close to me/ Will I ever see you smiling back at me?/ How will I know?/ If I let you go?
Night after night I hear myself say/ Why can't this feeling just fade away?/ There's no one like you/ You speak to my heart/ It's such a shame/ We're worlds apart
I'm too shy to ask, I'm too proud to lose/ But sooner or later I gotta choose
And once again I'm thinking about/ Taking the easy way out
CHORUS/ But if I let you go I will never know/ What my life would be holding you close to me/ Will I ever see you smiling back at me?/ How will I know?/ If I let you go?/ (If I let you go. ooh, baby.)
And once again I'm thinking about/ Taking the easy way out
CHORUS/ But if I let you go I will never know/ What my life would be holding you close to me/ Will I ever see you smiling back at me?/ How will I know?/ If I let you go?
Tomoyo's eyes were puffy and red after all the crying. She would never forget his love, forget his face, forget his kindness, forget his mysterious ways. Tears started to roll down her rosy cheeks again. God, even if he hates her now, she will still love him.
~*~*~*~*Syaoran's POV*~*~*~*~
Ah... a 10 minutes interval then its my turn. Shit, I don't know what to sing, what should I do? I've been sitting there for the past three hours and fifty minutes composing a song, but instead, I thought of Sakura... god, where are you? I remembered Tomoyo telling me that you are caught in the fire... what happened? Damn it, what am I to sing? Ah! So confused, headache! After a few minutes of thinking, I finally know what I want to sing.
~*~*~*~*Interval over, End of Syaoran POV*~*~*~*~
Syaoran put on his headset and walked to the middle of the stage after whispering the tune to the DJ. He took a deep breadth as the music starts.
Syaoran:
Ohhh.
Don't pretend you're sorry/ You know you're not/ You know you got the power to make me weak inside/ And girl you leave me breathless/ But it's ok/ Cause you are my survival/ Now hear me say...
I can't imagine life without your love/ And even forever don't seem like long enough
CHORUS/ 'Cause every time I breathe I take you in/ And my heart beats again/ Baby I can't help it/ You keep me drowning in your love/ Every time I try to rise above/ I'm swept away by love Baby I can't help it/ You keep me drowning in your love
Maybe I'm a drifter/ Maybe not/ Cause I have known the safety of floating freely in your arms/ I don't need another lifeline/ It's not for me/ Cause only you can save me/ Oh, can't you see
I can't imagine life without your love/ And even forever don't seem like long enough/ (Don't seem like long enough, yeah)
CHORUS/ Cause every time I breathe I take you in/ And my heart beats again/ Baby I can't help it/ You keep me drowning in your love/ And every time I try to rise above/ I'm swept away by love/ Baby I can't help it/ You keep me drowning in your love
BRIDGE/ Go on and pull me under/ Cover me with dreams, yeah/ Love me mouth to mouth now/ You know I can't resist/ Cause you're the air that I breathe
CHORUS/ Every time I breathe I take you in / (Every time I breathe, yeah)/ And my heart beats again/ Baby I can't help it / (Baby I can't help it)/ Keep me drowning in your love/ And every time I try to rise above/ I'm swept away by love/ Baby I can't help it / (Baby I can't help it)/ Keep me drowning in your love / (Love......)
Baby I can't help it/ Keep me drowning in your love / (Keep me drowning in your love)
Whoa,/ Got me drowning
Keep me drowning in your love
Baby I can't help it / (I can't help it, can't help it, no no)
CHORUS/ Every time I breathe I take you in/ (I do)/ And my heart beats again / (Ohhh)/ Baby I can't help it/ (Baby I can't help it)/ Keep me drowning in your love/ Every time I try to rise above/ (Every time I try to rise, rise above)
Sakura's ears twitched as she heard the voice. 'I knew it was familiar! But, who's this?' She shrugged and continued composing her song. Down on stage, Lyra wondered about the guy who was singing on stage. There's something mysterious about this guy... Li Syaoran... Syaoran in Chinese is Xiao Lang, English is Small Wolf. She gasped loudly, causing the people around her to stare with irritating faced. Lyra muttered a 'gomen' and continued with her thoughts...could he... could he be that someone? Someone that Ying-fa admired? Xiao Lang... Small wolf, he must be...
Syaoran:
I'm swept away by love/ Baby I can't help it/ You keep me drowning in.... your love
A guy in black suit with a 'proper' microphone came up right after Syaoran went in. He was grinning from ear to ear, as he announced, "That's the last of the X'treme! Wonderful songs they sing! Now, it's the last but definitely not the least group, Flower Petals!" There were screams of joy from of course, their number one fans. They 'calm' down as Chiharu stepped out. But just as Chiharu stepped out, the X'treme went out for snacks, and will come back in time for the prize-giving presentation.
Chiharu looked everywhere down on stage, hoping she will find the person she is looking for, hoping he would be there, supporting her. She hung her head as she sighed, waiting for the music to start. So many things had happened after they had met, are they not fated to be together? Not destined?
Chiharu:
Got introduced to you by a friend/ You were cute and all that, baby you set the trend/ Yes you did oh/ The next thing I know we're down at the cinema/ We're sitting there; you start kissing me/ What's that about?
You're moving too fast, I don't understand you/ I'm not ready yet, baby I can't pretend/ No I can't/ The best I can do is tell you to talk to me/ It's possible, eventual/ Love will find a way./ Love will find a way.
CHORUS/ Don't say you love me/ You don't even know me/ If you really want me/ Then give me some time/ Don't go there, baby/ Not before I'm ready/ Don't say your heart's in a hurry/It's not like we're gonna get married/ Give me; give me some time
Here's how I play, here's where you stand/ Here's what to prove to get any further than where it's been/ I'll make it clear, not gonna tell you twice/ Take it slow, you're pushing me/ You're pushing me away/ Pushing me away...
CHORUS/ Don't say you love me/ You don't even know me/ If you really want me/ Then give me some time/ Don't go there, baby/ Not before I'm ready/ Don't say your heart's in a hurry/It's not like we're gonna get married/ Give me; give me some time
Oooo, na, na, na, na, na, na, na/ Na, na, na, na, na, na/ Oooo, na, na, na, na, na, na, na/ Na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Don't say you love me/ You don't even know me baby...
Baby don't say love me, baby/ Give me some time...
CHORUS/ Don't say you love me/ You don't even know me/ If you really want me/ Then give me some time/ Don't go there, baby/ Not before I'm ready/ Don't say your heart's in a hurry/It's not like we're gonna get married/ Give me; give me some time
CHORUS/ Don't say you love me/ You don't even know me/ If you really want me/ Then give me some time/ Don't go there, baby/ Not before I'm ready/ Don't say your heart's in a hurry/It's not like we're gonna get married/ Give me; give me some time
Naoko:
Well I wonder,/ Could it be? When I was dreaming 'bout you baby/ You were dreaming of me Call me crazy,/ Call me blind,/ To still be suffering is stupid after all of this time
Did I lose my love to someone better?/ And does she love you like I do, I do/ You know I really really do
CHORUS/ Well hey... so much I need to say/ Been lonely since the day The day you went away / So sad but true / For me there's only you/ Been lonely since the day,/ The day you went away./ Go On, Yay... Oh...
I remember - date and time/ September 22nd Sunday twenty-five after nine/ In the doorway/ With your case/ No longer shouting at each other/ There were tears on our faces
And we were letting go of something special/ Something we'll never have again, I know/ I guess I really really know
Well hey... so much I need to say/ Been lonely since the day The day you went away / So sad but true / For me there's only you/ Been lonely since the day,/ The day you went away./
Oh oh oh/ Did I lose my love to someone better?/ And does she love you like I do, I do/ You know I really really do
Well hey... so much I need to say/ Been lonely since the day The day you went away / So sad but true / For me there's only you/ Been lonely since the day,/ The day you went away./
BRIDGE/ Why do we never know what we've got till it's gone/ How could I carry on?/ The day you went away/ Cause I've been missing you so much I have to say/ Been crying since the day/ The day you went away/ The day you went away/ The Day you went away.../ Go on, Yay... Oh...
Rika:
Mirror, Mirror lie to me./ Show me what I wanna see./ Mirror, Mirror lie to me.
Why don't I like the girl I see?/ The one who's standing right in front of me?/ Why don't I think before I speak? (I speak)/ I should have listened to that voice inside me./ I must be stupid, must be crazy, must be out of my mind/ To say the kind of things I said last night
CHORUS/ Mirror, Mirror hanging on the wall,/ You don't have to tell me,/ Who's the biggest fool of all?/ Mirror, Mirror I wish you could lie to me./ And bring my baby back,/ Bring my baby back to me.
Mirror, Mirror lie to me/ Show me what I wanna see (to me)/ Mirror, Mirror lie to me/ Show me what I wanna see
Why did I let you walk away?/ When all I had to do was say 'I'm sorry'./ I let my pride get in the way (get in the way)/ In the heat of the moment I was to blame./ I must be stupid, must be crazy, must be out of my mind/ Now in the cold light of the day I realize
CHORUS/ Mirror, Mirror hanging on the wall,/ You don't have to tell me,/ Who's the biggest fool of all?/ Mirror, Mirror I wish you could lie to me./ And bring my baby back,/ Bring my baby back to me.
BRIDGE/ If only wishes could be dreams,/ And all my dreams could come true./ There would be two of us standing here in front of you./ If you could show me that someone that I used to be./ Bring back my baby, my baby to me (my baby to me)
CHORUS/ Mirror, Mirror hanging on the wall, (Oh, oh)/ You don't have to tell me,/ Who's the biggest fool of all?/ Mirror, Mirror I wish you could lie to me./ And bring my baby back,/ Bring my baby back to me. (My baby back)
CHORUS/ Mirror, Mirror hanging on the wall, (baby, baby)/ You don't have to tell me,/ Who's the biggest fool of all? (I'm the biggest fool of all)/ Mirror, Mirror I wish you could lie to me. (Lie to me)/ And bring my baby back, (Bring my baby back)/ Bring my baby back (Baby back, baby back) to me.
Mirror, Mirror lie to me/ Show me what I wanna see/ Mirror, Mirror lie to me (to me he he)/ Mirror, Mirror lie to me show me what I wanna see./ Mirror, Mirror lie to me
Meilin sighed as the others did, sad and angry that the guys, especially Yoshi went right after their songs. Will they get to meet again? 'Stupid Yoshi, leaving me... alone.'
Meilin:
Every time I think I've had enough of you/ I take you back again Not because I need a friend/ Just because I can't pretend/ Like the others do/ You think you're really serious/ Clever and mysterious/ Talking like you're dangerous/ Talking like a fool
Every day there's someone else/ Who wants to get with me I'm telling you/ If you know what's good for you/ Treat me like you used to do/ Love me like before
PRE-CHORUS 1/ 'Cos all I can do is watch and wonder/ Where the boy I know has gone/
You say that you want me, well it's/ Time to tell your friends where they belong
CHORUS/ You can find it in your heart/ Give a little love/ Have a little faith/ In the two of us/ You can find it in your soul/ Give a little love Have a little faith/ In the two of us
PRE-CHORUS/ 'Cos all I can do is watch and wonder/ Where the boy I knew has gone
Little boy I don't want anything to do with you/ Get on your knees/ I'm the one you have to please/ Not the ones you want to be/ I don't think you're cool
PRE-CHORUS 2/ 'Cos soon you can only watch and wonder/ Where the girl you knew has gone
And then you will realize that/ Everything you did to me was wrong
CHORUS/ You can find it in your heart/ Give a little love/ Have a little faith/ In the two of us/ You can find it in your soul/ Give a little love Have a little faith/ In the two of us
PRE-CHORUS 2/ 'Cos soon you can only watch and wonder/ Where the girl you knew has gone
BRIDGE/ And do you really wanna lose a friend/ You gotta understand or it has to end/ 'Cos I don't wanna wait for you anymore/ Can't take it anymore
CHORUS/ You can find it in your heart/ Give a little love/ Have a little faith/ In the two of us/ You can find it in your soul/ Give a little love Have a little faith/ In the two of us
Tomoyo:
For all those times you stood by me/ For all the truth that you made me see/ For all the joy you brought to my life/ For all the wrong that you made right/ For every dream you made come true/ For all the love I found in you/ I'll be forever thankful baby/ You're the one who held me up/ Never let me fall/ You're the one who saw me through, through it all
CHORUS/ You were my strength when I was weak/ You were my voice when I couldn't speak/ You were my eyes when I couldn't see/ You saw the best there was in me/ Lifted me up when I couldn't reach/ You gave me faith 'coz you believed/ I'm everything I am/ Because you loved me
You gave me wings and made me fly/ You touched my hand I could touch the sky/ I lost my faith, you gave it back to me/ You said no star was out of reach/ You stood by me and I stood tall/ I had your love I had it all/ I'm grateful for each day you gave me/ Maybe I don't know that much/ But I know this much is true/ I was blessed because I was loved by you
CHORUS/ You were my strength when I was weak/ You were my voice when I couldn't speak/ You were my eyes when I couldn't see/ You saw the best there was in me/ Lifted me up when I couldn't reach/ You gave me faith 'coz you believed/ I'm everything I am/ Because you loved me
BRIDGE/ You were always there for me/ The tender wind that carried me/ A light in the dark shining your love into my life/ You've been my inspiration/ Through the lies you were the truth/ My world is a better place because of you
CHORUS/ You were my strength when I was weak/ You were my voice when I couldn't speak/ You were my eyes when I couldn't see/ You saw the best there was in me/ Lifted me up when I couldn't reach/ You gave me faith 'coz you believed/ I'm everything I am/ Because you loved me
I'm everything I am/ Because you loved me
She did not see Eriol downstage. Tomoyo ran back in to search thoroughly for him. So many months... she missed him... he couldn't have forgot her, could he? He isn't so mean, is he? Where is he? God, he left her... once again...
The Flower Petals took their bags when they heard the guy said, "Lets welcome... Kinomoto Sakura!!" Shouts of happiness were heard, they must have missed Sakura. The five girls stood still when they saw a girl wearing a pink dress walking out, auburn hair and emerald eyes. They stared with wide-eyes, Sakura... she's back! They leaned against the wall that is next to the main door to the opening.
Sakura:
I thought you were a friend of mine but I was wrong/ You tried to fit in to arms where I belong/ You moved right in behind my back/ Everyone knows friends don't do that
Just nice, the X'treme opened the door and went in. They stared at the person singing as they closed the door. They leaned against on the wall that is on the OTHER side of the door. Syaoran stared at her with his amber eyes, there she is...there she is...
Sakura:
I thought you were somebody I could trust/ You always said you were happy for us/ How could you go and break my heart?/ When you knew all along he was mine from the start
Eriol felt that it is too squeezed and moved more towards the door, giving himself more space. Tomoyo too, was the one nearer to the door. She moved more nearer to the door, as she was getting hot. Now, Eriol and Tomoyo are standing side by side. Not noticing each other, as they were busy looking and hearing Sakura singing. Eriol, not knowingly, accidentally stepped on someone's foot, he sweat dropped, embarrassed to move his feet away. Tomoyo flew with rage and controlled herself while whispering, "You know its rude to step on a lady's foot..." They did not turn to look at each other, still listening to the song, as well as the others. Eriol smirked through the dark and answered, "No. I always step on my girlfriend's feet." Tomoyo grinned as she stared at Sakura, "I pity your girlfriend, my boyfriend always step on my foot, stupid him." Eriol folded his arms and said, "Count that boy clever and you, stupid." Tomoyo smiled sadly and looked up at the ceiling, "I wish he could step my foot as many times as he want if he is here, by my side. Oh well, at least Sakura is back.
Sakura:
CHORUS/ He is everything to me/ And you know were meant to be/ He's my baby/ Don't mess with my love/ Take everything I own/ Ooh, just leave that boy alone/ He's my baby/ Don't mess with my/ Mess with my love/ Don't mess with my love
You came right over and looked in my eyes/ You said the stories were rumors and lies/ And I wish I could believe in you/ But I'm sorry to say he told me the truth
CHORUS/ He is everything to me/ And you know were meant to be/ He's my baby/ Don't mess with my love/ Take everything I own/ Ooh, just leave that boy alone/ He's my baby/ Don't mess with my/ Mess with my love/ Don't mess with my love
This time, Eriol turned to look at Tomoyo and Tomoyo at Eriol, they gasped and stood rooted to the ground. "To...Tomo...Tomoyo!" Tomoyo nodded restlessly and cried, Eriol smiled and pulled Tomoyo towards him, embracing her. "Tomoyo, how much I miss you..." The guys stepped out and finally, they spotted the girls. Each hugged their own loved ones... Meilin, hitting Yoshi's chest as he hugged her, "You're mean, leaving me. Big meanie!" Naoko, staring into Zuroi's eyes as he stared into hers. Chiharu, giggled as Yamazaki told his lies, god, how she missed hearing that, Yamazaki then smiled down at her and embraced. Rika, telling Ryan how much she misses him. Ryan replied, "I miss you more than you miss me." "I miss you much more than you miss me." "I miss you much much more than you miss me." Syaoran chuckled at them, looked at Sakura, smiling one of his rare smiles.
Sakura:
BRIDGE/ Friends don't do what you do/ There's no excuse/ I'm so confused/ I thought you cared about me/ But now I see/ All you care is about is you
CHORUS/ He is everything to me/ And you know were meant to be/ He's my baby/ Don't mess with my love/ Take everything I own/ Ooh, just leave that boy alone/ He's my baby/ Don't mess with my/ Mess with my love
She thanked the crowd as she walked backstage, not before she stared into Syaoran's eyes. Sakura rushed down and looked for Lyra, waving her to come out to the side. Lyra sighed and went over to Sakura who hugged her immediately, "Arigato, Lyra! Arigato! Without you, I won't be here, Arigato!" Lyra cried and embraced her, "Ying-fa...um, Sakura..." "Ying-fa will do." Lyra wiped her tears and hugged her tighter. "I'm going to miss you. Ying-fa, don't forget me. I won't stay any longer. Thank god you got back your memory. Sayonara, Ying-fa..." Lyra ran out of the door, passing the five hugging couples. "Lyra... don't go..."
"The top six winners! Congratulations to... (Drum roll) Naoko and Zuroi, Meilin and Yoshi, Rika and Ryan, Chiharu and Yamazaki, Tomoyo and Eriol and Sakura and Syaoran!!"
The twelve of them looked shocked as they walked up the stage. Finally, amber met emerald. They took the trophy together, bowing. Syaoran placed the trophy on the floor and closed his eyes. Sakura tiptoed a little, she too, closing her eyes. Lips met... 'Oohs' and 'Ahs' are heard form the audience. They kissed for a long time when Tomoyo whispered to them, "You're the first couple of us who kissed, how fortunate..." They two broke apart and blushed like two reddest tomatoes. 'God, we're in public, with so many people...' The suddenly, the audience clapped the loudest ever heard. The six couples all raised their trophy high as screams and shouts were blasting, and balloons of different colors floating down from above.
~*~*~*~*5 years later*~*~*~*~
"Hey, that's mine!"
"No, mine!"
"Is not!"
"Is to!"
The garden was a beautiful sight. Tress stood up high, grass neatly mowed, pretty flowers were growing too. There was a round wooden table with a striped umbrella in the middle, few chairs around it. There was also a swimming pool and a playground. Two kids were seen fighting over a ball. One was a girl around six, with two plaited pigtails and another girl with a ponytail and raven hair, she was around five.
"Miyuki, its mine! Mummy bought it for me. Aunty Chiharu bought you lots of toys, go play with them!" The girl with a ponytail shouted as she applied more force. "But Takami, Aunty Tomoyo said I could play with it too!" The girl known as Miyuki answered. Then, a boy that looked like Takami walked over. He had navy blue hair and glasses. "What's happening?" Takami protested. "Onii-chan! This is my ball!"
Meanwhile, Naoko and her daughter were sitting under a cherry blossom tree. Naoko was reading the story [[Cinderella]]. Her daughter, Zuko had black long hair and glasses. "Cinderella was shocked when the big clock struck midnight, she remembered what her fairy godmother had said." "Momma, Cinderella is so poor thing, what about her prince?" Naoko smiled and patted Zuko's head, "Read and see..."
Xiaohu and Crystal were up a cherry blossom tree. Xiaohu, who was seven, had amber eyes and messy chestnut hair, just like his father. Crystal, who was one year younger than Xiaohu, had brown eyes and long, straight brown hair. Xiaohu was blowing the harmonica while Crystal was blowing the flute. Together, they made a sweet, slow lullaby.
Sakura came out of the mansion and shouted, "Lunch's ready!" Tomoyo and Eriol also came out; they ran over to stop their children and Chiharu's child fighting. "Takami Hiiragizawa! Miyuki Takashi! Neo Hiiragizawa! Stop!" Tomoyo scolded as she tried to pull Takami away while Eriol pulled Miyuki, he shouted, "Neo! Knock it off!" Neo broke off and said, "Fine, I was only trying to break them off." Tomoyo sighed and carried Takami while Eriol carried Miyuki and Neo carried the ball.
Sakura and Naoko gathered the children and went inside for lunch.
~*~*~*~*Eating Table*~*~*~*~
Meilin walked down the stairs with Yoshi walking behind her. Meilin was carrying a two-year-old baby boy named Yei-shi. Another kid came running down the stairs. He was Amber, Yamazaki's son. His parents are behind him, telling him to be careful not to fall... Ryan and Rika were already downstairs. "Okay! Let's eat!" Syaoran took a nugget for Sakura while Xiaohu took one for Crystal. (Rika's daughter)
They were told that Lyra, Eileen and Evelyn had met and become best of friends. Sakura's family were informed and lived on, just without Sakura, although she sent letters to them. They had come to visit once, in Li's private jet, for their wedding and the birth of Xiaohu. Sakura never met Lyra again after the day she had left; she wished her good health and good life. Mou, life is so nice...
