A/N: To my reviewers, Ace of Spades, for you I am changing the names, so Madison will be Tomoyo, Li will be Syaoron, and Meilin, well she will be Meilin, along with Sakura, will be Sakura. To my other reviewers, thank you so much for reviewing. And I hope you like this new chapter! Sorry it took awhile to update!
The bright sunlight filled the darken room as the morning made way. Light crept up to the bed where Meilin laid sound asleep. Hitting her eye she turned in annoyance.
Yawning briefly she cursed the sun for rising in such a rude manner. Glancing up she jumped in shock. There stood Syaoron at the foot of her bed post with a bright smile across his face.
/ Figures for him to wake up at the crack of dawn. / Meilin thought as she covered her face with her pillow.
"Come now Meilin. Time to get up." Syaoron replied smiling.
"What is it with you smiley?" She asked expressing that she still held sarcasm.
Slowly sitting up Meilin stretched her body as a sleek cat would.
Her black tank top hugged her upper section and her pajama pant bottoms showed off her complete stomach. Her body was sore for some reason and she couldn't help but yawn. Syaoron's eyebrow crossed as he noticed her movement. He couldn't help but stare.
Her body had matured over the years. And she was growing up.
Suddenly, Meilin jumped off of the bed and walked to the door, stopping to look at Syaoron.
"Are you coming or what?" She asked remembering her thoughts last night. Sighing she walked out with Syaoron not far behind.
"Breakfast is already made." Syaoron replied as Meilin made her way to the fridge.
Turning her head slightly her eyes widened. She couldn't believe what she was hearing.
"Since when did you learn how to cook?" She asked slightly amused. Syaoron rubbed the back of his head as a blush filled his worn face.
"Well, Sakura taught me." He replied as his face turned a more crimson at the mention of Sakura's name.
A tight feeling filled Meilin's chest as her heart ached. She had to struggle to stand up straight. All the emotions from the previous night overwhelmed her futile body in a rush. Sending Meilin to the floor in a clasp.
Syaoron swiftly caught her with a look of concern on his face.
"MeiMei, are you alright?" He asked bringing her body closer to his warm body.
"Yeah...I'm...fine." She replied slightly pushing back and recovering from her recent outbreak.
Syaoron blinked noticing he was sitting on the floor with Meilin lying in his lap. They both quickly jumped and Meilin made her way to the oak table. Sitting quickly as she pulled out the chair she released a sigh. Clearing her throat she smiled.
"Smells delicious Syaoron. I'm glad you finally learned to cook, I couldn't teach you for the life of me." She smiled slightly as Syaoron rolled his green gems.
Slowly he made his way to the table setting down the food onto their plates. Pulling out his chair he sat and unfolded the napkin into his lap.
Meilin lifted her fork slowly and twirled it around the food looking at it suspiciously. Looking across the table she smiled a fake smile and closed her eyes tight bringing the fork to her mouth and depositing the food. Slowly she chewed and shot open her eyes.
"This is great!" She yelled excitedly. Syaoron smiled gently and waved a hand to her comment.
"Nothing compared to your cooking for that I am sure of MeiMei." A blank expression covered Meilin's face at the name. Laughing mockingly and blushing slightly she stopped.
"MeiMei? You still use that old name? Ahaha." Rubbing the back of her head as Syaoron laughed.
No matter how much he looked at it and tried to cover it up, Meilin was growing up. Meilin finished her food quickly and smiled.
"Thanks for the breakfast Syaoron." Standing politely she slowly pushed in her chair and took her dishes to the sink. Turning around to reach for Syaoron's she bumped straight into him knocking the dishes he held to the floor in a crash.
"Eeek!" Meilin screamed as the dishes hit the floor swiftly sending glass pieces across the tile, jumping back just in time.
"I'm so sorry Syaoron!" Meilin gasped at the sight. Broken pieces of glass had spread across the floor past the table.
/ What a mess. / She thought. Before she could reach down and retrieve the pieces around her Syaoron grabbed her hand, lifting it up away from the pieces.
"No. Let me, it's my mess, I should have warned you before sneaking up behind you." He replied, a blush spreading across his face.
Meilin nodded in response to tired to argue. She patted his arm gently as a kind gesture, sending a small smile across both of their faces, and walked to the table to fetch the rest of the dishes.
Syaoron began humming to himself as he picked up the broken pieces.
/ Just like old times. I got her back. / He thought as another smile hit him. Closing his eyes, he sighed.
/ Wait...I got her back? What am I saying? She isn't mine, I have...Sakura. / Gulping as his thoughts continued to roam he stopped glancing over at the young Chinese girl.
She looked a little bit happier then from the night before. But there was stills something off about her.
"Heeeellllo!" Sakura's voice rang from the living room as the front door closed behind her.
Slipping her shoes off and her feet into her slippers, she walked into the kitchen where she found Meilin and Syaoron. A smile crossed her lips at the sight of Syaoron on his knees leaning over. But he seemed to be dazed.
Meilin shot her glance up to the doorway. Her face tightening at the sight of Sakura.
/ Not now. / She thought. This was the last thing she needed, just waking up, and the loves birds all over each other. Sighing she slid a smile onto her cherry lips and waved to Sakura.
"Morning Sakura. What are you doing at our humble place?" She asked trying to sound a tad bit surprised. Sakura smiled in response as Syaoron glanced up.
"Oh! Sakura. When did you get here?" he asked a bit embarrassed. Standing slowly he stepped over the pieces of glass and made his way to greet Sakura. Her arms slid around his broad shoulders and she giggled.
"I just got here silly. Thought you two could use some company. A little fun." Sakura smiled mischievously at the boy and looked over to Meilin.
Crossing here brown eyes she turned away from the two, stepping over the glass, and depositing the dishes into the sink.
"No that's ok, you two can go have your fun, and I think I am going to go and tour the city, read, catch up with old friends. You know the routine." Hoping that they caught on and took the bait, Meilin wiped her hands off and began walking towards the exit.
"Oh. I completely understand. Well then you do that. Want me to come with you?" Sakura asked pulling away from Syaoron and looking at Meilin her eyes filled with concern. Meilin smiled vaguely and shrugged.
"That's ok Sakura. I think I can manage. I'll be fine. But thanks anyways." And at that she exchanged a quick glance with Syaoron who seemed a little concerned for her too, and walked out. Opening her bedroom door she entered slowly and closed it behind her.
The memories of last night filled her mind hitting her all over again.
/ What is going on with me? Why am I acting so, so not like me/ She wondered to herself. Sure all her life she had been so close to figuring out Syaoron.
So close to getting through them barriers. But then, she moved. Returned to China. Her life had changed so much since then. She had become...independent. Never letting her guard down and pushing herself way too hard. Her parents caught on and suggested she seek counseling. But Meilin wouldn't do it.
Sighing away the thoughts of the past she reached for her coat and slowly made her way back to her door.
Pausing briefly as her hand enclosed around the handle she smiled. Maybe she would be alright. After all. She was home. To her this was home.
Opening the door she exited without taking a glance back at the two still standing in the kitchen. Quietly exiting Syaoron's and her apartment she made her way out of the building. To where? She didn't care as long as it was away from there. She needed time to think. To be free. Something she used to do a lot of back "home".
Lifting her head as she stepped outside into the cold she smiled as the breeze swayed through her black hair, brushing it across her face. Where to?
