I don't own Cardcaptor Sakura. But I do own this story!!!!!
"Love Returned"
- Universal Moon
Chapter 3
- "Heartbreak Hotel"
In Tomoyo's living room a couple of hours after Sakura teleported away.
"So what happened Li-kun?"
"I don't know Tomoyo!"
"What do you mean you don't know?"
"I mean we kissed. I told her how much I loved her. How stupid I was for leaving her, and how much I've regretted my decision all these years."
"And then."
"Nothing."
"NANI!"
"She told me she loved me, and that she would forgive me anything. But I don't think she meant for me to hear. She kind of mumbled it. I don't know if she'll give me a chance, or if she's going to marry that Jason guy. She doesn't know that I'm staying here; so if she comes by to talk to you, don't tell her I'm staying here. She needs time. I'll give her time, this weekend. On Monday, I'll take matters into my own hands."
"What will you do?" Tomoyo asked intrigued.
"What any self-respecting sorcerer would do."
"And that is," she asked
"I'm going to seduce her." He grinned.
"Well good luck, cause you're gonna need it. But, I hope she refuses you."
"Nani?"
"I want to see you seduce her. It will be a perfect excuse to try out my new digital camera, with recording capability." Tomoyo cheered.
"You'll never change."
"Nope. Why should I? I like myself the way I am, and so does Eriol."
"I bet he does. But I wouldn't want you to change either. If you did you wouldn't be Tomoyo anymore."
"Exactly!" She grinned. "What are you going to do now?"
"Well right now I'm gonna go to bed. I need to think about how I'm gonna handle things with Sakura and that guy she's with." He said sourly.
"That 'guy' she's with is called Jason."
"I don't care. And pretty soon neither will Sakura." He yelled as he climbed up the stairs.
"Good night Li-kun!"
"Night Tomoyo!"
************************************************
Sunday late afternoon
"Jason we need to talk. Meet me at the park in 15 minute." Sakura told him over the phone. "I'll see you there, bye." She walked down the stairs and was almost out the door when Touya intercepted her.
"You're going to see Jason? Didn't you see him last night? What time did you get in? It must have been very late, cause I was waiting for you on the couch." Touya asked in a peeved voice.
"Actually I was in my room by 8:30."
"What! You left at 7pm, you can't have been home that early. I didn't even hear you come in."
"I teleported in. All Jason and me did was grab a quick diner and walk around the park, a lot of times. After about the 6th time we passed the Penguin slide, Tomoyo ran into us, and she had a friend. I was too frustrated with what was happening that I took off."
"Why were you frustrated, and who was this friend?"
"You aren't going to like it?"
"Try me!"
"Well Jason asked me to marry him."
"NANI!"
"I didn't say anything because that's when Tomoyo and Syaoran showed up." She said Syaoran's name really low.
"I didn't catch that last name. I think it sounded something like Syaoran? But that can't be, I'm sure that there's no way you'll see him without shredding him to pieces."
"Yeah well, when I left him he was still standing."
"NANI?"
"Yeah, he's back and he wants me back too."
"You're not going back to him are you? What about Jason?"
"I'm going to break up with Jason right now."
"And you're going to hook up with the gaki, right?"
"No. I don't know what will happen with Syaoran. All I know is that I can't keep leading Jason on. I don't love him, and this relationship isn't fair for either of us."
"Looks like you're finally growing up. It isn't right to play with someone else's emotions. Good luck with Jason. The Gaki on the other hand, don't bring him around here, else I won't be held responsible for what I do to him. Okay?"
"OK, oni-chan. Ja ne."
"Sayonara Sakura." He said as she walked out the door. "Doesn't matter what he did to you, you love him, and in the end, you'll go back to him." He thought to himself.
************************************************
"There you are Sakura! I was getting worried." Jason called out when he saw Sakura cross the bridge at the park.
"Touya kept me a little occupied."
"Well that's ok, pretty soon he'll be my oni-chan too. Right?" He asked happily.
"That's what I wanted to talk to you about. Jason, I can't marry you."
"What? What do you mean you can't?"
"I don't think we should continue going out. I don't . . . you deserve someone who loves you."
"And you don't love me! Right?"
"Not the way you want me to."
"It's because of that Syaoran, right? You're dumping me because you want to get back with him. You were just using me until he came back!"
"Jason stop it. You know that's not true. I would never do that to you, or anyone else for that matter. I tried to love you, but I couldn't. I have no clue on what will happen between Syaoran and me, but I can't keep leading you on. It wouldn't be fair, to either of us. Gomen-nasai, sayonara." She said as she ran away.
"Sakura! Come back, don't leave me!" He yelled out in between his tears.
************************************************
"I'm so sorry Jason." Sakura said to herself as she ran towards Tomoyo's house. She pounded on the gate until one of Tomoyo's guards opened it. She didn't even have to knock on the house door. The minute she reached the door Tomoyo opened it.
"I could hear your pounding a mile away!" She joked.
"Tomoyo I need to talk to you."
"Let's go to the living room." She yelled out.
"Why are you yelling? I'm right here."
"No reason." She grinned.
Flashback to a few minutes ago
"Tomoyo, Sakura's coming this way. I'll hide. I don't think she's ready to see me just now."
"Ok Li-kun. Look I'll yell out where will be, that way you can listen to what she says. You'll need all the help in the world, if you're going to seduce her." She grinned. "And hide your aura. We don't want her to know that you're here."
"Yeah, I learned my lesson last night."
"Now hide."
"Hai."
End flashback
They walked into the living room and sat down to talk.
"So what happened Sakura?"
"I broke up with Jason. I just couldn't keep up this façade. I don't love him and I know that I never will."
"Finally! I thought that you'd never dump him."
"Tomoyo be nice!"
"I am being nice. But you weren't happy! You were miserable, and you deserve better."
"No, he deserves better. I just wasn't able to love him."
"Because you're still in love with Li-kun. Right?"
************************************************
Syaoran perked up his ears when he heard that Sakura had broken up with Jason.
"Will she forgive me? Kami-sama I wish knew! I love her so much. I was an idiot to leave. I'll never stop kicking myself."
"Because you're still in love with Li-kun, Right?" Li heard Tomoyo ask.
"What will she say?" He thought worriedly.
************************************************
"Sakura, answer me."
"Tomoyo you know the answer, so why are you asking me."
"Do I know the answer? Come on tell me. I want to hear you say it."
"Fine! You want my answer! Ok here it goes! I . . . what was that?"
************************************************
"This is it the moment of truth!" Syaoran thought as he leaned on the table. All of a sudden the table moved, and the phone fell off. "Crap." He thought as he froze.
************************************************
"What was what?"
"Didn't you hear something fall?"
"No! Now quit stalling and tell me if you love him or not?"
"I'm not stalling! I really heard something!"
"Liar! Now spill! Do you love him or not?"
"Fine! I love him! I love him with all my heart! Yesterday when I kissed him, it felt so right! I haven't felt so happy in such a long time. We are just so right for each other. I don't know how I survived these last 4 years without his kisses. Goddess what am I going to do?"
"About what? You love him, he loves you, what's there to think about?"
"It's not that easy. I don't want to get hurt by him again. I couldn't bear it!"
"Trust in your love. Trust in him. But most of all trust in yourself. Just talk to him. Work things out. In the end you'll see it was worth all the pain you guys suffered."
"I don't know."
"Just talk to him."
"I don't know where to find him anyway."
"What if he's the next person to knock on my door?" She yelled loudly.
"Why do you keep yelling? Anyways, I can't talk to him, not today. I'm just going to go to my room and sulk for a bit. Sayonara Tomoyo." She said as she walked out the door.
"Ja ne Sakura." Tomoyo called out as the door closed. "Li-kun you can come out now, she's gone."
"She didn't want to talk to me." He said sadly.
"No, that's not it. She just needs time."
"I'll talk to her on Monday. Now that she's single, I have nothing to fear. Not that I was ever afraid."
"You're so confident. That might not be a good thing. You need to be vulnerable, let her look into your heart for the truth. Only then will both of you be together."
"Yeah well, I'm going to go lie down for a bit and think."
"Sure. Ja ne Li-kun."
He ran up to his room and locked the door. "I need to talk to Sakura." He thought as he climbed out his bedroom window. "I can't let her think I'll hurt her again! I love her too much!"
To Be Continued . . . .
When will Sakura finally accept him? Keep reading and reviewing!
