October Chill

Chapter 7

By: Cobalt-eyedAngel

After thinking that she would never fall asleep, Sakura was dreaming about Syaoran Li. On one level she knew she was asleep. She replayed moments with him over and over, recapturing looks, nuances: the slight catch in his voice when he stepped away from her that first time, apologizing for frightening her; the shy smile, as though he didn't do it often; the way he always seemed to be hugging himself for warmth; glancing up, for the briefest moment, before saying, "I think I may have died." She lingered, consciously, unable to let it rest.

But on another level, it seemed so real-so very, real.

So that when she started to fantasize, when she started to embroider what had happened and take it a step farther, she could feel her heart quicken, her breath catch. She imagined his warm breath as he came close, closer than he had ever really come. His lips touched her's, gently, lovingly. He caressed her hair, her shoulders. He told her she was beautiful, which she knew she was not. (A/N- Who is she trying to kid? LOL.)

He told her, he loved her, which...Oh, God. She replayed the smile, the fleeting glance. Which maybe...

Maybe.

His breath quickened to match hers. She felt his heart beating has he held her, kissed her neck. She flung her arms around him and clung to him.

And then she awakened.

Her father snored softly in the next room. The hall clock ticked. A car passed outside.

Sakura held herself very still, forcing herself not to make a sound. 'How stupid' she thought. She was DYING. What was she doing falling in love? OBVIOUSLY this relationship had no future.

And he was already dead.

That, in it's self, she told herself as she got up to get some medicine for her headache, probably pretty much ruled out a traditional church wedding.
