Last chapter:
Meiling smirked as she saw Syaoran's car pull up the driveway. It was time for phase two of her plan. It would be difficult, especially trying to pull that kind of stunt at school but she would be able to pull it off, just like she always did. Meiling's smirk quickly turned into a look of pure loathing as she saw Syaoran get out of the car and open the door for Sakura.
Meiling gave one last look of disgust at the couple before getting out of her hiding place and walking into the school. Kinomoto would be destroyed by the end of the day, her reputation tarnished and she would be nothing more than a common slut. Meiling grinned evilly, Kinomoto had better enjoy her time as a prized student, because it was all going to come crashing down. Yes. Revenge would be sweet.

Chapter 15- the finale
Sakura drew random hearts and words on the cover of her math book. Her mind was on Syaoran, and that sneaky step-cousin of his, Meiling. Sakura had felt Meiling's gaze on her when she had arrived earlier with Syaoran. What did Meiling have against her? Sighing Sakura looked at what she had drawn, it was the ying and the yang. Syaoran was sitting in front of her, but she knew he was sneaking a peak at her every now and then. She could see his hair ruffling every time his head turned slightly.
"Sakura!" The teachers voice snapped her back into reality.
"Hoe?" she asked foolishly, the class was looking at her.
"Would you care to find out what x is by solving the problem on the board?" The teacher said in a bitchy tone.
Sakura nervously bit her lip and she looked at the problem, she hadn't been listening to anything the teacher had been saying the whole period. She got up and timidly walked to the front of the class. As she passed Syaoran's desk, she felt him slip something into the back pocket of her jeans (while getting a feel of her behind at the same time) Sakura slipped her hand into her pocket, trying not to attract attention and pulled a piece of paper out. It was the answer to the equation. Turning to face the class, Sakura gave Syaoran a small smile; he then gave a flirtatious wink in return causing Sakura to roll her eyes at him. Just because he was good in math and helped her out didn't give him the right to show off.
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~
Shaycha and Cho were filing their long nails as Meiling came walking up to them.
Cho looked up from her filing,
"Hey Meiling!" she greeted.
"Hey girls," replied Meiling.
Shaycha slipped her emery board into her pencil case, "So Meiling, how is your plan going? We heard about you hopping into bed with Tai Ling, how did you manage to shag him with that pain in the ass chick Michelle always at his side?"
Meiling gave a small smirk, "Drugged him."
Shaycha and Cho glanced at each other,
"So what is next?" Cho asked as she ran her fingers through her dark blue curled hair.
Meiling's smirk grew larger, "You'll see, I now have to go do something," she turned and walked down the hallway where Kinomoto's locker was. Making sure no one saw her, Meiling slipped a piece of paper into it. She then went to Syaoran's locker and slipped a piece of paper into it through a slot. Meiling continued her way to physics with a satisfied smile on her face.
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~
"Hey Sakura, look, there's Syaoran!" whispered Tomoyo giddily as they made their way to their lockers before heading over to their chemistry class. Syaoran had just turned at a corner before Sakura could call out to him. Sakura instead went to her locker to get her books for Chemistry. She opened it only to discover a note. Sakura grabbed it and unfolded it.
Meet me the far left corner of the library at 12:40
Syaoran
Tomoyo looked above Sakura's shoulder and peered at the note,
"Ooh…Sakura's got a loooove letter from her boooyfriend!" She said in a singsong voice.
Sakura rolled her eyes before slipping the note into her pocket and getting her books out. She was of course going to meet Syaoran later.
"C'mon, lets go to class," Sakura said, trying to change the topic as she started walking down the corridor. (She ignored Tomoyo's kissing noises)
Tomoyo stuck her tongue out at Sakura before joining her.
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~
Syaoran keyed in the combination for his locker, which unlocked with a click. He was about to swap his books when he saw a piece of refill paper. He grabbed the paper and read what was written,
Meet me in the far left side of the school library and
12:30
Meiling xxx
Syaoran crumpled the piece of paper before flicking it away, what did Meiling want with him?
Shrugging he started to walk to his next class. (Ignoring a blonde girl's attempts to talk to him)
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~
The bell rung and signaled the beginning of lunch. Meiling was walking to the library; she had to be there first. If Sakura got there before her, all her planning would be ruined. Meiling spotted Derek heading towards the cafeteria. She gave him a nod, indicating what she was doing and what he had to do after. Derek smirked back knowingly.
Meiling pushed open the library doors; she had rarely been in the library. Only the times when her classes were in the library doing research.
Meiling made her way to the secluded corner and she was pleased to see that Syaoran was already there.
She shot him a seductive smirk, "hey Syaoran," she said as she walked around him. Book selves were around them except the gap Meiling walked through.
Syaoran folded his arms as he eyes ran up Meiling. She was wearing a pleated dark green suede skirt and a light green tube top.
Smirking Meiling advanced on her prey.
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~
"Tomoyo, I have to go meet Syaoran in the library," exclaimed Sakura as they walked out of class.
"The library! Aww… How romantic! Lovers being surrounded by books…" Tomoyo sighed dramatically.
"Hey! Tomoyo!" yelled a voice from behind the two girls. It was Eriol. Tomoyo instantly flared up and let out a giggle as Eriol took her hand.
"Well see you," Sakura said, glad that Eriol had distracted her friend.
Sakura ran as fast as she could without bumping into other people, she glanced at her wristwatch to see it was 12:42.
Sakura entered the library and sighed in relief as the air conditioning cooled her. She walked to where she was supposed to meet Syaoran, which was quite far inside the library. When she got near, she could hear voices. Sakura frowned as she heard Syaoran's voice, whom was he talking to?
Sakura hid behind a bookshelf and looked through a gap between the books and what she saw shocked her.
Meiling was straddling Syaoran and they were full out kissing.
Sakura had the urge to go out to strangle Syaoran's neck but she stayed in her hiding place.
"So," she heard Meiling say once they finished kissing, "are you going to fuck Kinomoto or are you gonna back out cause you have developed feelings for her? The little bitch is obviously pining for you."
Sakura heard Syaoran grunt, "Feelings for her? I'll have her where I want her, and I'll get her in bed soon." Sakura felts tears escape her eyes and slide down her cheeks in a wet trail. Syaoran didn't love her. All he wanted to do was to get into her pants.
"No stings attached?" Meiling asked.
"None whatsoever for me at least," replied Syaoran.
"That little bitch is going to be broken, and then afterwards you can have me," said Meiling
Sakura clenched her fists; she was not going to be a pawn in their twisted little game. How could Syaoran betray her like that? She decided that enough was enough and stepped out…
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~
"None whatsoever for me at least," said Syaoran as he lied through his teeth. Of course, he had developed feelings for Sakura. He wished he didn't agree to Meiling's bet in the first place, and now it was tearing him apart.
"How could you…" Syaoran heard a small female voice. He looked up to see Sakura standing by the gap between the bookshelf's, tears running down her pale face.
Syaoran was frozen; he glanced at Meiling who was smirking. Syaoran couldn't believe it; she had planned this all along. To make sure he didn't win their bet.
"How could you?" Sakura repeated.
Syaoran opened his mouth to answer but no words came out.
"HOW COULD YOU?" Sakura screamed, her emerald orbs were bloated with salty tears.
"Listen Sakura, I'm sorry, just let me explain. We were set up by-" Syaoran started to explain that Meiling had planned this to happen, but he was cut off.
"I DON'T WANT TO HEAR YOUR LAME EXCUSES!" Yelled Sakura, "don't ever come near me again you can have your whore." Before Syaoran could even utter a sound, Sakura had taken off.
Syaoran glared at Meiling, "You bitch! You set us up you lying wench, how could you!"
Meiling only smirked before she grabbed Syaoran's bag and opened the zip.
Syaoran growled, "What do you want, give it back!" Syaoran made a lunge for it and got his knapsack back, only Meiling had taken out his journal.
"I'll have this, after all, it's obvious you lost the bet," Meiling stood up and headed towards the library's exit. Syaoran just sat there. Now Sakura would never want to talk to him, all his chances with her was ruined, all thanks to Meiling.
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~
Sakura ran to wherever her legs lead her to, She was oblivious to all the shocked looks her peers were giving her. People and classrooms were all a blur to her and she lost all sense of direction. Sakura ran outside and into the field, where she ran behind a large oak tree before falling to her knees and crying. She cried for ages, glad that nobody could see her at her weakest.
It was all her fault; she was dense enough to trust Syaoran and to even go out with him. Seeing him talk about her to Meiling was like a slap in the face. He was using her to get Meiling. She ignored the bell when it rang and continued to engulf in self-pity.
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~
Tomoyo walked out of class to the last period of the day. Where was Sakura? Tomoyo looked around, maybe she had gone home sick. However, if she did she would have texted her. That gave Tomoyo an idea. She took her phone and sent a text message to Sakura asking where she was. Tomoyo looked around for signs of the auburn haired girl. She then tried looking for Syaoran but was unsuccessful.
Sighing, Tomoyo headed over to French. Maybe Sakura was busy helping a teacher or something. If she were then she would text back soon.
"Bonjour mademoiselles et monsieurs!" Exclaimed the French teacher.
"Bonjour Madam Eden," the class said together.
"Commen-alez-vous?" The teacher asked.
Tomoyo flinched when her phone vibrated in her pocket. She got her phone out and read Sakura's text.
I'm outside, by the fields, can u come plz?
Groaning Tomoyo raised her arm, "Madam, I feel really sick, can I please go to the nurse?" She said as she faked another groan.
"Dear, you look really bad, of course you may go," said the French teacher.
Pulling herself out of her chair, Tomoyo fake groans until she was out of the door. Then she sped off to find Sakura.
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~
Tears still slid down Sakura's face. She couldn't make it stop not matter how much she tried. A while ago, Tomoyo had texted her, it made Sakura realize that she hadn't told anyone yet and that she needed someone to talk to.
Sakura raised her head to see Tomoyo's silhouette approaching her from a distance.
More tears ran down her cheeks at the sight of her loyal friend.
"Oh Sakura," Tomoyo mumbled once she was near her best friend. Sakura's hair was disheveled and her eyes were bloodshot.
"Tell me what happened," said Tomoyo.
Sakura's shoulders heaved as she struggled to breath while she was crying.
"He w-was u-sing me," cried Sakura.
"Who? Syaoran? At the mention of his name, Sakura's crying got louder.
"Take your time Sakura, but tell me everything."
Sakura opened her mouth and started to explain what she saw without crying.
When she finished, Tomoyo was in shock, how could Li break his friends heart in such a cruel manner?
"It's okay Sakura," said Tomoyo, trying to soothe her distressed friend.
The bell for home time rang.
"Come on Sakura," Said Tomoyo as she helped Sakura stand up.
Sakura wiped away her tears with some tissue that Tomoyo had given to her before slowly walking beside Tomoyo to the school gate.
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~
Syaoran ran outside the school gate trying to find Sakura but she wasn't anywhere.
"Well Syaoran Li. Not so happy now are you?" said a voice. Syaoran turned to see Derek and Tai standing on the school steps. They jumped of the steps and started walking towards Syaoran.
"Not so smug now, you'll pay in the end Syaoran Li, you'll pay for drugging me," drawled Tai.
Syaoran raised an eyebrow, "What the hell, why would I drug you? I arrived to the party after you had passed out." Syaoran's eye widened, this was all Meiling's doing. She was trying to frame him.
"Don't lie, I saw you spike his drink before heading out the door," said Derek. Syaoran frowned; Derek and Meiling were on this together!
"Tai I swear I didn't, it was Meiling who spiked your drink," said Syaoran.
"I know you were advancing on my girl," said Tai.
Syaoran almost snorted, there was no way in this lifetime he would go after someone ass annoying as Michelle.
"After what you did to Sakura, you are going to pay," Derek said as he cracked his knuckles.
Tai clenched his fists "We are going to make sure of it."
Syaoran got into a fighting stance, if Tai wasn't going to believe him; he was just going to have to use fists.
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~
Sakura and Tomoyo walked down the hall way to the exit, Sakura had stopped crying. She only sniffled now and then. As they were about to turn a corner, they heard voices.
"All my hard work and this is all I get!" They heard Meiling exclaim. "Listen to this girls, I KNOW I was in it to get Meiling, but I think I have fallen in love with Sakura Kinomoto. How do I know? I know because every time I see her, my heard starts beating faster and I have the urge to do whatever she wants, I think I'm going to break off the bet with Meiling, but that would mean me giving in my journal," Said Meiling, imitating Syaoran's voice.
"I already know what's written in here," Meiling flung the journal into a nearby rubbish bin.
"So after all you planned, you didn't get anything?" Shaycha asked.
Meiling laughed, "No, as we are speaking. Derek and Tai are going to beat up Syaoran. Tai thinks Syaoran drugged him and Derek wants revenge. Moreover, when they are caught, Tai and Derek will be expelled and out of my lives. While Syaoran will be reduced to a nobody like that, wench Kinomoto."
"That's so smart Meiling! Syaoran's weakness was his love for Kinomoto and you exploited it!" said Cho.
"Well what are we waiting for girls, lets go see the downfall of Syaoran Li." The three girls started walking to the exit.
Tomoyo shot Sakura a worried look. Sakura was trying to process all the information. Once Meiling and her girls were out of sight, Sakura grabbed the journal and flicked through it. Realization dawned upon her and she showed Tomoyo some of the entries.
"Tomoyo…" she whispered, "Syaoran, he's in trouble, Derek and Tai are going to jump him,"
"Hurry up Sakura, you need to confront him," Said Tomoyo and the two girls started running.
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~
Syaoran dodged a punch from Derek and blocked an oncoming kick from Tai. Derek growled and swung his leg so it hit Syaoran's ankle causing the teen to fall
Syaoran gritted his teeth as Tai kicked the side of his stomach. Dodging another punch from Derek Syaoran managed to stand up but quickly ducked as Derek threw another punch. They were on the footpath now and there was quite a crowd watching them now. Cars and trucks sped past but Syaoran took no notice of it.
"You'll pay," growled Derek as he placed a well located punch on Syaoran's stomach, causing him to double over in pain. Deciding it was not enough Tai pushed him roughly on the street so that Syaoran fell painfully on his back.
"Syaoran!" He heard a voice; he looked up to see Sakura running towards him. "Look out!" She pointed with her hand.
Syaoran looked to where she was pointing and saw a truck heading for him at full speed. He opened his mouth to scream but it was too late, the truck hit him at full force. Syaoran felt like each second after the impact was like years. He felt his body slowly lose conscious, he looked up to see Sakura running, before he closed his eyes and all he saw was blackness. "Sorry…Sakura," he whispered before his head dropped lifelessly back to his side.
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~
Sakura watched in horror as Syaoran was pushed onto the road.
"Syaoran!" She yelled, "Look out!" However, her warning came too late, the truck had already struck him.
Sakura ran to see that blood was pooled around Syaoran. She wished that it was all a bad dream but it was not. As she neared Syaoran she heard him whisper, "Sorry…Sakura." No, he couldn't die on her like this. Sakura watched Syaoran's head fell back onto the ground. No it couldn't be…
Sakura felt nauseous, she didn't notice Tomoyo screaming and she ran towards her, all her senses were numb like her body, she was hyperventilating and she couldn't take it anymore. Sakura felt her body drop, just as she was about to hit the concrete Sakura felt something grab her from behind, Sakura's mind went blank and there was only one thought on Sakura's mind all as she felt herself slipping into darkness, she was okay but Syaoran was dead.
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~

A.N: L I know that was sad, but there will be a happy conclusion, even if Syaoran dies. Please don't tell me to change the story next chapter because I already had this whole story set out from the beginning. Sakura just fainted; wish I could say the same about Syaoran.
