This dance was a wonderful idea. I wonder who organized it? Anyways, its extremely fun. Eriol is so sweet. I looked around, observing the dance floor once again. The floor was filled with confetti with dancing figures on top. The lights blinked every few seconds making the entire scene look extremely lively. This is so FUN! And I'm here with Eriol.

I felt thirst envelope me.

"I'm going to go get a drink ok?" I yelled at Eriol. The music was so loud. But I love feeling of the bass against my chest.

Eriol nodded and began dancing with a nearby girl. I sighed. I know, I know its just a dancing partner...

I gulped down quicklly and before I knew it, drank around 6 cups. Those glasses of punch really quenched my thirst. I returned to where Eriol was and tapped him on the shoulder. He smiled at me.

The DJ switched to a slow song and Eriol's hands wrapped around my waist slowly. I lifted my arms to surround his neck when all of a sudden I felt a pain in my stomach.

"ugh.." I groaned. I fell to the ground. People around me began whispering and stared down at me. Normally I would get embarrassed but it hurted too much.

"Sakura?" Eriol bent down with worried eyes. "Sakura, whats wrong?"

"I.. ah..I.. its nothing. I feel a bit dizzy and my stomach hurts." My hands dug against my stomach. Why the heck am I feeling sick all of a sudden? I gave another moan. It really hurted this time. Eriol helped me up and headed towards the tables nearby. I was feeling shaky, I could barely walk. Wait a minute.. it must be the punch! Someone put poison or something in it. I didn't feel like this before I drank. Wow whatever is in the punch really works fast.

"I think the punch has something to do with this.." I moaned.

"Okay, hold on I'll tell the people to change punches. I'll be right back ok?"

I nodded. A few minutes later he came back.

"Its alright. Its taken care of now-"

"Eriol, you can go back to dancing." He hesitated then nodded and walked away. I knew he wanted to dance. He loved dancing. It was cute. I didn't want him stuck here with me.

Damn, my stomach hurts. I looked around for Eriol, I wanted him to take me home. The music was bothering me now that I have stomache pain and dizziness.

"Sakura?" said a voice. I looked up slowly. It was Eriol.

"Aren't you dancing?" I asked him.

He shook his head.

"You said you feel dizzy and your stomach hurts?"

I nodded. He smiled grimly.

"I think I know who may have cause this." He mummured.

"What did you say?" I asked him. I wasn't paying attention. He just shook his head. He handed me a glass of water with a few crackers in his hand.

"It was all I could find. And no I didn't want to go dancing without you. For a little while its ok, but your sick. I can't stop worrying. Maybe I should I take you home?"

I smiled and hugged him. "Thanks." I said softly.

"Here, drink the water with this." Eriol held up a white pill.

I popped the pill in my mouth and gulped down the water.


She drank the punch. She drank 6 glasses of it. It'll give her pain for the rest of the night. Then for a week straight, she would have incredible mood swings. Then Syaoran would see what a bitch she really is. After that mood swinging week, is the best part. She would have internal bleeding and would sooner or later die.

I told you to be careful Sakura Kinomoto. You should listen to me, if you know whats best.


I woke up feeling sad inside. Something really upset me. I wasn't sure what, but it did. I felt like crying. Oh, I have to go see Meilin. I hope she got better. My heart was aching though I didn't know from what.
###
Then suddenly something flashed. The hard breathing of a man. I felt weak, I clung to his shirt. His face was inches away from me. But I couldn't see it. It was hidden by a shadow. What was covering his face? I heard the ambulance come and faded away. Then another came, but this time targeted me. I heard voices, and the man who was holding me slowly placed me on a stretcher.

"Everything would be alright, Sakura." Said the person.

###
The flash was gone. That was the man who saved me... the one who helped me across the street for safety. The one who helped me into the stretcher to head for the hospital.

Isn't it Eriol? I was so sure all this time. But now I'm not so sure. It must be! He was getting so uncomfortable when I mentioned it. He was the only one who reacted. Syaoran... it couldn't be him, could it?

Why would he save me anyway?! That jerk! Stupid snot celebrity! Thinks that he can go around saving anyone! Well.. I only want Eriol to save me!

I stopped. I'm getting really stupid over this. Why do I keep switching moods? I'm never moody...even with my...period. God this is embarrassing. I mean, I'm sad, then confused, now mad? What the heck is wrong with me? The stomach pain is gone though...

What if it is Syaoran? It couldn't be, hes always rude, serious, ignorant...

"Kaijuu! Get out a bed!" the freak of nature yelled from downstairs.

"Touya.. that's no way to treat your sister." My dad answered annoyingly.

I sighed and groomed myself. I went downstairs, grabbed a banana and rushed to the door. "Good morning Dad, Touya. I have to go see Meilin."

"You sure she actually wants your company there, Kaijuu?" I gobbled down the banana and threw the banana back at where I knew Touya was standing. "Kaijuu!!!!" He yelled when the banana peel hit him.

I giggled and jogged over to Syaoran's house.

When I reached Syaoran's house, I noticed him practicing his sword fighting. He was swiftly yet barely any sound could be heard. As soon as I stepped inside his little "battlefield" he stopped and looked up. As if I rang some alert in his head.

"Sakura.." he said softly. I merely nodded at him.

For a moment we just looked at each other. I couldn't help but think how charming he was. With his chestnut bangs that hung over his deep mysterious amber eyes, he was simply handsome. His body was well built, probably from practicing martial arts.

"Hi." Silence. My mouth was dry. Why am I feeling like this?

"Did you go to the Christmas dance?" He asked solemnly.

"Ya, with Eriol. It was wonderful." I said happily.

Another silence. "Why did you go with him?"

I stared at him in disbelief. "Well, obviously because I like him. He seems extremely nice and he is. He's also .." I blushed "attractive."

His eyes narrowed.

"Did you get hurt?" his voice didn't show concern, but I felt touched.

"Ya.." I said slowly. At this he tensed. "You alright?" he asked, this time I could feel the worry inside him.

Whats up with him? "Don't worry, I'm fine. It went away."

"Good." His eyes returned to their old self, cold.

"Did you go to the dance?"

It took him a long time. "No." His eyes wondered off and he began kicking in the air again.

"Why not?" I asked curiously. He's a celebrity. There should be tons of girls dying to be with him. He didn't answer my question.

"About what Meilin said to us the other day..." I started.

"She won't die. She's overreacting." Syaoran replied, now punching in the air.

"Yeah, I know. Eating too much pills can't be that bad, can it?" I asked worriedly. I've never heard of anyone dying from too much pills. Besides, it was only for a few days.

Silence again.

"Well anyways, I'm going to see Meilin ok?" No answer.

"Good bye to you too." I said sarcastically.

"I don't say goodbye." I looked at him weirdly. Syaoran stopped what he was doing and continued, "I will see the person again. When people say good bye, it feels like their leaving forever."

"Syaoran..." I felt touched. I don't know why, but for the first time, he showed true feelings to his words.

"...Tomoyo sent me an email about her trip. You could go inside to check it out." He said dropping the previous topic.

"Syaoran, I would never leave you forever. I'll be your friend." I whispered.
