Chapter Five: Mixed Feelings
It was in the middle of the night, Syaoran was staying in Sakura's room, since she had insisted that he take the bed. Kero's snore could be heard through the drawer that he slept in. Even though it was fairly quiet Syaoran could not get to sleep. The fresh scent of Sakura, the light, pinkish sweet smell, was implanted into the room, specifically her bed. Everywhere Syaoran went, all he saw was her. He remembered when he was still trapped in the Other World, all he ever thought about was her. How his heart ached when he could never see her smiling face. He didn't care when he was cut or hurt badily, he knew it was for a good cause. To come back to the this world, to touch her angelic face and just hold her, and take her in.
Syaoran immediately snapped out of his on going "need" for Sakura. 'I can't have her. Not now, not ever.' He knew he would have to go on in his life, and just watch her from afar, as she is in the arms of another man. He looked up at the ceiling, his mind blank for once, slowly, his eyes started to droop, until he had entered a dreamless sleep.
~*~
"Where am I?" Sakura asked quietly, as she scanned her surroundings. It was a dark room, nothing could be seen beyond that, only darkness.
"Get away from me Sakura!" a thundering voice towered inside the dark room.
"I never want to see you ever again!" another voice shrieked, this time it was more feminine.
"I never thought you would stoop this low..."
A crowd of angry shadows surrounded Sakura, giving her no room to escape. Sakura twirled around and around, sweat dripped down her forehead, her mind and body started to panic. Suddenly a large hole was formed underneath her, she fell through. Sakura witnessed her life pass by, as she fell farther...
Sakura jolted up from Touya's bed. Her eyes filled with fear and her forehead drenched in sweat. She used the back of her and wiped off the access sweat. 'What was that all about?' she asked herself, trying to shake the scene out of her mind.
She touched her cheek and felt hot tears stinging on her cheek. She never did notice them fall. "It went by so fast..." Sakura murmured, "Yet it seemed so real." Her eyelids started to get heavy once again and soon she was fast asleep.
~*~
RING!! RING!!! The light blue phone shook from the hook it was hung on.
Since Touya had demanded Sakura to take his bed, he had slept in the couch instead. He dragged himself off of the couch, scratching his head and yawning, he picked up the phone. "Hello?" his voice greeted, sounding somewhat angry.
"Hello. I am Yelan Li, Syaoran's mother." an elegant voice was heard, "I hope I didn't call too early."
"No, it's okay, everyone's awake." Touya yawned, noticing Sakura tumbling down the stairs and their father walking down, stretching himself. The next sight caused Touya to narrow his eyes, the gaki was coming down, it seemed as if he had awoken way before anyone else had, he was neatly groomed and was in a new set of clothes.
"Well that's good then. Can I please speak to my son?" she asked politely.
"Just a second." Touya said, "Yo, kid! Your mother's on the phone! She wants to speak to you!"
Syaoran sped up beside Touya quickly, giving him one last glare, he snatched the phone out of his hand. "Hello." Syaoran greeted.
"How are you doing?" Yelan asked over from the other end.
"Okay I guess." Syaoran answered, scratching the back of his neck.
"Well, I wanted to call you, that there will be no need for you to come to the airport, since I will be held up here for quite awhile."
"Sure..." Syaoran replied, trying to hold back his disappointment. Even though his main motive was to see Sakura again, he still missed his family, even his annoying sisters.
"Since you will be staying in Japan, for quite awhile, I suppose, I have registered you into the high school. You can catch up with anything you missed."
Syaoran let out a silent sigh, 'Ten years... of missing work!' he groaned in his mind. "Fine."
"You will be attending at Seijui High School. You start tommorow." Yelan informed him, "I'll call another time. Enjoy yourself, son."
"Until then." Syaoran clicked the phone back onto its normal position without another word.
The Kinomoto family and Kero all stared at him at the kitchen table, two with warming smiles and two with scowling glares. Pancakes were piled up on a plate in the center of the room, there were five plates set on the table, even for the hungry Kero.
"I guess I couldn't escape from school for that long." Syaoran tried to joke, "I have to start school with you tommorow, Sakura. If you don't mind... could you show me around?"
"Of course I won't mind! It will be just like the old times!" Sakura smiled, her happy mood radiating across the room.
"I guess I have to sleep on the couch for a long time..." Touya mumbled, staring down at his plate.
"I could rent an apartment." Syaoran offered, smirking.
"No, you can stay here. There's no need for you to rent a place. Besides we have tons of room here." Fujitaka stated, smiling at Syaoran, turning to Touya and giving him a look of warning.
DING DONG!!
"I'll get it!" Sakura practically flew out of her seat and ran towards the door, causing Touya to raise an eyebrow.
Sakura pulled the door open and revealed Yukito, "Hi, Yukito!" she greeted, "Come in!"
"Wow... Sakura... your in a really good mood today!" Yukito told her, smiling at her happiness.
Sakura nodded, gesturing for him to the kitchen. "I guess your here to see Touya." Sakura stated.
"And because Yue had felt another presence, that was once here a long time ago, and he has returned." Yukito explained, referring to his other half, Yue, who was also one of Sakura's guardian. "And here he is!" Yukito smiled, looking at Syaoran, he seemed perfectly calm.
"Hello, its nice to see you again." Syaoran said, in a monotone voice. He had always somewhat dispised Yukito, for he had captured Sakura's young heart, when they were only ten. But he now sort of wished that Sakura still was head over heels for the silver haired man, he would've preferred him over that jerk Eriol any day. 'All in the happiness for Sakura...' he sighed in his mind.
"Well, Syaoran, would you like to spend the day with a couple of girls?" Sakura giggled.
"Erm..." Syaoran hesitated at the offer, then noticing that if he not accepted, he would be stuck with the glaring, Touya and the maniac, Kero, "Okay."
Sakura clapped her hands together childlishly, "I have to go get ready, we're going in a few minutes."
"Few minutes means an hour in kaijuu language." Touya smirked, receiving a stomp on the foot by Sakura.
"I'm not a kaijuu!" Sakura yelled, smirking at the pain she had caused Touya.
~*~
Syaoran, Sakura and Tomoyo all fell on the couch in complete exhaustion. Sakura and Tomoyo had dragged Syaoran almost everywhere in the mall, from store to store, from clothes rack to clothes rack.
Finally when Tomoyo and Sakura had called it a day, all three friends' feet were throbbing, none were able to take another step foward.
"You should've warned me..." Syaoran rubbed his sore feet, "Then I could've backed out on the last minute."
"If I told you, you would've never agreed." Sakura giggled.
"We should do that another time." Tomoyo suggested happily, her worries and sadness had temporarily lifted from her shoulders and mind. Not once had she thought about Eriol and her best friend being together. It felt like the old days, when they were all kids, crazy and happy, without the care in the world.
RING RING!!!
Sakura dashed over the phone and picked up the receiver. She glanced up at her friends and smiled. "Hey Eriol."
Syaoran and Tomoyo's heart both sank at the sound of that name. It had ruin a perfectly good day.
Syaoran shifted in his seat, his mind reeling with anger. 'Didn't Sakura ever remember me when I left? Did she ever have one thought come through her mind?' he questioned in his mind.
'Every boy that I liked, or even had slight feelings for, never even looked at me twice.' Tomoyo cried helplessly, 'I will always remain Sakura's shadow, and I'm getting really tired of it.' She remembered the very first boyfriend she ever had, Toji Sakamoto, whom she thought she was going to spend the rest of her life with, had turned out to be a complete bastard. He had never looked at Tomoyo with any feeling, the only reason he ever gone out with Tomoyo was to get closer with Sakura... After three times of going through almost the exact same situation, she gave up, she never wanted to look at another guy again. Until she met Eriol. He was so kind and sweet to her, not to mention how incredibly handsome he was when she first laid eyes on him. Disgust filled in her mind, yet again, the only one in his mind was Sakura.
But she had promised Sakura that they would remain best friends no matter what happened, and this was something that was going to put their friendship up to the test. For sure.
"Sorry about that..." Sakura blushed, "I tried to get rid of him as fast as I could."
"I've never seen you so happy Sakura." Syaoran commented stiffly.
"Well..." Sakura sighed, turning away. 'Why do I feel so guilty, talking about Eriol in front of Syaoran like this? I spent years getting over him, now that I have, he has to suddenly appear out of no where.' Sakura thought. She took another glance at Syaoran, he seemed perfectly calm, it seemed like he didn't care... 'He doesn't love me anymore...' Sakura guessed, she had a sudden urge to cry, but immediately stopped herself. She couldn't let herself go through this again, after all those years of suffering she never wanted to go back. 'Besides...' Sakura thought, 'Isn't he going back to Hong Kong soon?'
