Note From Author: Hello everyone! I've finally released my second (or should I say, fourth!) fanfiction ever on ! I know I know…a lot of people are disappointed in me because I haven't been updating my other fanfiction. I promise you guys that I will try to update this fanfiction regularly. Well, enough about me! Let's go onto the fanfiction! (Please excuse my English errors, grammar, and any repetitive words -- I don't have the time to edit the chapters…so please don't flame me for that!!! )
Disclaimer: I do NOT own any of the characters in Cardcaptor Sakura. They all belong to CLAMP. But, the characters I've made up belong to me (duh…silly) Any songs, quotes or whatever belongs to the respectful owners!
Also, if you guys are ET fans, I'm sorry to say that there won't be any scenes containing these two cute couples. But they did fall in love with each other though! Isn't that good enough for you guys?!
Chapter 1: I love You!
(Before I begin, this is the part when Sakura is in the middle of the air when Syaoran tries to catch her. This is the ending of the 2nd movie if you guys even bother to watch it. So…this is the continuation (or should I say, sequel?) for the 2nd movie of Cardcaptor Sakura.)
"Sakura-Chan! Don't jump! It's too far away from me! Wait until the walkway is complete again!" Syaoran yells at Sakura as she summons the Jump card.
"I can't Syaoran! Aishiteru Syaoran-kun!" Sakura cries out and jumps across the balcony. The circle of brightness appears on the horizon and the city Tokyo (er…I know I'm supposed to know this, but I REALLY don't know where Tomoeda Elementary is! ;;; gomen ne…) returns back to normal. "AISHITERU SYAORAN-KUN!!!!!"
Syaoran begins to feel nervous as Sakura approached towards him. It's like a miracle because Sakura managed to jump across and land into Syaoran's arms. He blushed like crazy as he hugged Sakura tightly and whispered back, "Aishiteru, Sakura-chan" and smiled. Sakura glanced up at Syaoran and tears were in her eyes.
"Syaoran-kun, I can't believe…that…you and I…we…it's…so weird!" Sakura mumbles and touches his cheek. Tears spilled out and trickled down her cheeks. She couldn't believe that the Hope card didn't take away his memory!
"Shh Sakura-Chan, I'm here. I also can't believe we are together. No matter what happens, I'm here for you. Please stop crying. I hate to see you cry," Syaoran replies and kisses Sakura's forehead. (It's a bit young for them to kiss each other…neh? They're only in grade six by the way!! ;;;;;) Sakura nods and sobs quietly on his chest. They stayed in the same position for at least half an hour before-
"AIYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DON'T TELL ME I MISSED THE ENTIRE THING! OH MY GOD PLEASE DON'T TELL ME THIS IS HAPPENING TO ME!!!!" a voice cries out loud from a far distance. Sakura and Syaoran looked at each other and laughed. They obviously know Tomoyo must've been upset for missing the entire battle.
"Come on Sakura, let's go and find Tomoyo and Meilin," Syaoran whispers and caressed her cheeks. She nodded and summoned the Fly card.
"Uh Syaoran-kun, I was wondering…" Sakura begins to say.
"What is it?" Syaoran asks with question marks all over on his face.
"I'm not strong enough to carry you, so I will be telling the Fly card to grow wings out of your back so you could…could…could maybe carry me over to them?" Sakura stutters and blushes. Syaoran blushes back and carries Sakura into his arms.
"Fly card! Release and dispel upon Syaoran-kun's back!" Sakura yells and wraps her arms around his neck. White wings began to grow from the back of Syaoran. "Hold on tight," he whispers and flies off towards Tomoyo and Meilin. Syaoran scanned around the area and spotted two dots on a building. 'Meilin-chan' he thought and flies towards her.
"SYAORAN-KUN!! KINOMOTO-SAN!!" Meilin screams and hugs Tomoyo tightly. Both of them looked up at Sakura and Syaoran and squealed with joy. Tomoyo knows Sakura has finally confessed her love to Syaoran. No questions asked.
"Tomoyo-chan! Meilin-chan! I sealed the last card! I sealed the last card!" Sakura screams and jumps off of Syaoran's arms. He smiled at the way Sakura is acting. He loved her smile, cuteness, and best of all, her friendliness. Tomoyo notices Syaoran staring at Sakura dreamily and chuckles to herself. 'Syaoran really does love Sakura…'she thinks and thinks of a plan to make him kiss her (her as in SAKURA not TOMOYO)
"You captured it?! Oh congratulations Kinomoto-san!!! I'm so proud of you!" Meilin screams and hugs Sakura tightly.
"Thank you Meilin-chan. And please, call me Sakura. You're my best friend now and I think it's better to call me by my real name than my last," Sakura replies and giggles.
"Ahem!" Tomoyo clucks her tongue and taps her foot impatiently. She seems to be crossed about something.
"Oh Tomoyo-chan! I didn't forget about you! I saved my last hug for the best! And it's you!" Sakura says cheerfully and hugs Tomoyo. Tomoyo smiles and giggles hysterically. She knows Sakura would never do anything mean to her. Especially to Syaoran.
"Ohohohohoho!! I think someone's finally told to her 'special someone' that she loves him!! Sakura-chan??" Tomoyo teases Sakura and shoves her towards Syaoran. Both of them blushed as Syaoran holds Sakura's right hand and kissed it. "KAWAII!!!" Tomoyo shrieks and video tapes them. Everyone sweat-dropped and smiled with embarrassment.
"Tomoyo-chan! Don't waste your tape just on them! You need to tape them while they're KISSING!!" Meilin says and shakes her head. Sakura and Syaoran blushed and looked away.
"KAWAII!!!"
The Next Day
It was a beautiful sunny morning when Meilin, Tomoyo, and Syaoran went to Sakura's house for breakfast. Touya and Sakura's father went to Toronto for a month to prepare for her oni-chan's university. So all four of them decided to hang around at Sakura's house to accompany her. Everyone was happy…no not everyone. Meilin and Syaoran frowned as they entered the kitchen. Tomoyo noticed this but decided to ask the questions for later.
"Ohayou everyone! Oh…ohyaou Syaoran-kun," Sakura greeted them and blushed when she sees Syaoran.
"Ohayou Sakura-chan," they all replied in unison and sat down on the table, quietly. Sakura is confused by their reply as she serves them pancakes and scrambled eggs. They all ate in silence when Sakura finally couldn't stand it anymore.
"What's wrong with you guys?! Why aren't you talking? You guys are frowning and it's not making me happy as well. Something is bothering all of you…I just know it! Now please tell me or I'll start crying!" Sakura yells and glares at all three of them. Meilin glanced at Syaoran who seems to be close to tears. She sighs and stands up.
"Sakura-chan…Syaoran-kun…me…well…it's hard to explain." Sakura sits there and looks at Meilin with confusion. Meilin sighs and begins again.
"Sakura-chan. I don't mean to break this but…after what happened yesterday, Syaoran-kun's mother phoned us and…"
"AND?!" Sakura asks impatiently.
"She told us to go back to Hong Kong so Syaoran-Li can train for his position to be the leader for the Li clan! He isn't allowed to go to any place else until he's done his training! And it'll take him two whole years to complete this stupid training! We're also leaving within a week so he can start his training as soon as possible!" Meilin cries out and begins to cry.
Sakura couldn't believe what she just heard. Syaoran's leaving? Forever? She looks at Syaoran who's looking down at his feet. She couldn't see his eyes but it hurts her so much. She didn't want Syaoran to leave again and let her suffer. She couldn't survive a day without him. Sakura planned to spend time with him for the rest of the summer. And now he's leaving again?! This can't be happening to her! Tomoyo hugs Meilin and comforted her while Sakura stands up and runs to the living room with tears in her eyes.
"NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NOOOO!!!" Sakura pounds her hands on the cushion and sobs. Her body was trembling and she feels her heart beginning to break into little pieces. She could feel Syaoran's aura behind her, but didn't dare to turn around to look into his brown ember eyes.
"Sakura-chan…" Syaoran whispers and pulls her up. Her eyes were all red and he face was all red from anger. He couldn't bear to see Sakura like this. He hugged her and stroke her back.
"Why Syaoran-kun, why? I love you so much…I can't let you go and leave me alone again!" Sakura says and cries on his shoulder.
"I know Sakura. But I need to fulfill my mother's request. It's only two years-''
"TWO YEARS IS A LOT LI-KUN!" Sakura yells and shoves Syaoran away. He couldn't believe his ears. Sakura called him Li-kun.
"Sakura-chan! Please listen to me! I'll come back to you after my training. And I promise you that I'll marry you once I come back. I only love you and I promise I won't love anyone else but you. Onegai…don't cry," Syaoran says and tears are falling down the cheeks.
Sakura couldn't look at Syaoran. Not now anyways. She ran upstairs and into her room, ignoring Tomoyo's hug. She couldn't stand this anymore. She wanted to kill herself so she could destroy this feeling forever.
Back downstairs; Syaoran was lying on the couch with his wrist on his forehead. He was thinking about Sakura and how she was doing from her reaction. He hated seeing Sakura like this. 'Baka mother (ehehe…I know it's not nice to say that to his mother, but he's really angry with his mom right now ;;; please forgive me!!) why does this ALWAYS happen? Just when I was happy with Sakura, she comes in and ruins everything for me. ARGH!! I hate this pain!' Syaoran thinks and closed his eyes.
"Syaoran-kun…" Meilin whispers and holds onto Syaoran's hand. "I'm so sorry about this whole mess. I thought you and Sakura would finally be together again after this whole incident. Now we have-''
"I know okay?! Just leave me alone for a while!" Syaoran replied coldly and shoved her hand away from him. She sighed and walked out of the living room. Tomoyo looks at Syaoran and frowns. 'Why now? Everyone was so happy and now…this!' Tomoyo thinks and hugs herself.
After a whole hour of silence, Sakura decides to walk back downstairs and finish her breakfast. Everyone seems to know she is back downstairs and quickly rushed back to the kitchen, except for Syaoran. He walked slowly towards the room and makes sure he walked extra slow so he won't see Sakura's face.
"Sa…Sakura-chan?" Meilin calls to Sakura nervously. Sakura looks up and puts on her fake cheery smile. "I'm fine Meilin. It's just two years…like what Syaoran said, right?" she winks and continued to eat her pancake. Tomoyo and Meilin looked at each other and sighed. They both sat back down and ate silently. Finally, Syaoran entered the kitchen and wouldn't take his eyes off Sakura.
"Sakura-chan? I need to talk to you…privately," Syaoran says and grabs Sakura's arm. She begins to blush at the sight of him and followed him out to the back portch (domo….i don't know if she has a back porch or not --;;;;;)
"Sakura-chan. I know you're angry at me and I know why. You don't want me to go back to Hong Kong, right?" Syaoran says and puts his hand around Sakura's face. (A bit young to be doing this kind of mushy stuff…neh??) Sakura didn't reply but nodded.
"Like I said, I will be back for you in two years and we'll be married as soon as possible. I love you more than my life and no one can ever replace you. So please promise me, wait for me until I come back? Please?" Syaoran says and holds onto Sakura's hand.
"Xiaolang…" Sakura says and hugs Syaoran. He widened his eyes and blushes when she said his REAL name. He hugged her back and pulled her closer to his chest.
"I'm so sorry Syaoran-kun. I know I was being stupid and cried like a baby when you said you were going back to Hong Kong. I guess two years won't be that bad…I guess," Sakura whispers and kissed Syaoran's cheek. His cheeks grew warm and he turned red like a tomato. Sakura giggled and tickled Syaoran's chest.
'I'm going to miss Sakura. But at least I know I will come back and marry her,' Syaoran thinks and stroked Sakura's back.
"Syaoran-kun! I have a great idea! Let's email each other back and forth so we can keep in contact with each other!! That way, I won't always have to cry over you all the time!" Sakura says and looks into his eyes. Syaoran nodded and whispers his email address into Sakura's ear. Sakura did the same and they both smiled at each other lovingly.
The Day before Syaoran leaves
The gang decided to go to the park for a picnic as a good-bye party to Meilin and Syaoran. Tomoyo freaks out and makes Sakura a beautiful pink dress for her to wear. When they arrived at the park, Syaoran blushed at the sight of Sakura. She was wearing a pink spaghetti strapped dress that ended at her knees. She tied her hair with pink cherry blossoms and was wearing pink flip-flops. (That's SO KAWAII!! starry eyes)
"Sakura-chan! You look adorable today! Don't you agree with me Syaoran?" Meilin commented and nudges Syaoran. But he couldn't answer her because he couldn't stop staring at Sakura's beauty.
"BEAUTIFUL" Syaoran blurted out and blushed furiously. He stared at his shoes and tried to look away from Sakura. Sakura blushed and walked towards Syaoran.
"Thank you Syaoran-kun. I really appreciate your comments about my new dress," Sakura says and giggled at Syaoran's kawaiiness (is that even a real word?!)
During the picnic, Meilin couldn't stop talking about her days in Hong Kong while Tomoyo, Syaoran and Sakura were back in Japan to finish capturing and transforming the cards. Tomoyo tried to pay attention but was unsuccessfully done since her eyelids kept on falling down. Sakura on the other hand was fiddling around with her hair and trying to fix the pink cherry blossoms so it's in the perfect place. Syaoran kept glancing at Sakura and blushed at the way she's moving her arms and her head.
"So anyway, I met this REALLY cute boy and asked me if I had any money so I…is anyone listening to me?!" Meilin yells and glares at all three of them. No one replied but they all nodded to ensure that they were 'listening' to her. She smiled and continued.
"UGH! Sakura! Let's get out of here. I'll let Meilin finish her pathetic story later! Let's go to the swings!" Syaoran yells and grabs Sakura's hand without looking back. Tomoyo gets up and begin to run after them.
"TOMOYO-CHAN!!! Leave them alone!" Meilin cries and grabs her arm. Tomoyo looks at her with confusion. "That's the reason why I had to tell all my stupid stories. I could bore them to death and I just know Syaoran-kun will take Sakura-chan away so they could be ALONE together. Get with the program Tomoyo-chan!" Meilin says and winks at her. Tomoyo giggles and sits down on the picnic table.
Sakura and Syaoran (I know you guys will love this part!! )
Syaoran and Sakura both sat down on the swings and silenced themselves. Both were speechless for a while until Syaoran stands up and hands Sakura a white flower (er…I don't know what it should be called. Please excuse my lack of knowledge about flowers!!)
Sakura reddened and took the flower from his hands. "A..arigato Syaoran-kun," Sakura mumbles and looks away. Syaoran notices this and takes Sakura's hands.
"Sakura-chan. You look amazing today. I like the way you say my name and…I just can't stop loving you. You make me smile every single day. And whenever I hear your voice, it's like an angel calling out to me," Syaoran says and puts his arms around her shoulder for a brief, but warm, hug. Sakura blushes even more and wraps her arms around his neck. "Can I push you on the swing, Sakura love?" Syaoran asks and caresses her cheek. She nods and moments later, Syaoran was pushing her on the swings and humming softly.
It was so romantic to see them together for the last time before Syaoran leaves for Hong Kong. He couldn't take his eyes off her. She was happy, relaxed, and best of all, she belonged to him. He knew no one would take her away, ever.
"Syaoran-kun? Tell me, what are you thinking about right now?" Sakura suddenly spoke up and looks at Syaoran with her famous puppy eyes. He took a quick glance at her and his eyes were covered underneath his bangs.
"Uh…do I have to answer this question? I mean…" Syaoran begins and scratches his head. At that moment, Sakura stops the swing and looks at Syaoran with pain in her eyes.
"Why not? I thought you were my best friend, and best friends tell each other everything. And you're…you're also…m-m-my boy…boyfriend now…remember?" Sakura whispers and went scarlet. Syaoran looks at her and takes her hands.
"What are you thinking, Sakura-chan. Of course I'm thinking about you! It's just that, I just thought it would be embarrassing to tell you that I'm thinking about you, that's all. Please don't cry," Syaoran mumbles and kisses her cheek.
When Syaoran kissed her cheek, she jumps back and blushes. "Syao…Syaoran-kun. I…I…" Sakura begins to say and touches the spot where Syaoran kissed. He smiles and starts to run towards her. She shrieks and runs away from him and hides behind the slide. Syaoran cackles as he begins to walk behind to slide and catch her. (I don't think you ever heard Syaoran cackle before…do you? o.O;;;) Sakura giggles and climbs up the ladder without Syaoran knowing. When he turns his head to see if Sakura is there, he notices that her presence is no longer there. With fear, he scans around the place and wonders where Sakura had went. Suddenly, out of nowhere, Sakura jumps on his back and Syaoran and her lands on the ground with Sakura on top. Their faces were 2 inches apart. He didn't like the feeling being underneath Sakura with her face so close. Slowly, he inched forward, totally prepared to kiss her on the lips (they're a bit YOUNG to kiss each other on the lips, neh?) Then-
"Syaoran-kun? Promise me something," Sakura says and smiles. With his disappointment, he nods and looks into her eyes. "Promise me that you will love me forever, with all your heart, and with all your soul. Please don't forget about me…Syao. I will wait for you until you're done your training and we can be happy together forever once you do. Please promise me one more thing. Actually, we should both promise this together. We shall not fall in love with another person…I mean Syaoran-kun it's quite reasonable, right?"
Syaoran looks at her and chuckles. 'Man Sakura is so cute whenever she's serious,' Syaoran thought and pokes her nose.
"What?! What's so funny, Li-kun??" Sakura says and puts her head onto his chest.
"Nothing…nothing love. Just you. You make me laugh because…it's just you!" Syaoran replies and laughs. Sakura just looks at him as if he was a maniac. He silenced himself and concentrated on Sakura's eyes.
"Syaoran-kun! I'm serious!! Onegai…promise…that you won't fall in love with another person? Same goes for me, alright?" Sakura says and sticks out her pinky. Syaoran sighs and shakes his head. This is all nonsense. He KNOWS Sakura and him will be back together after a couple of months and he KNOWS he won't fall in love with another girl. He wraps his pinky around hers and kissed it. Sakura smiles and hugs on tightly around the waist.
'I know we will stay together forever…Sakura. But I don't know how long I will be gone,' Syaoran thinks and frowns as he wraps his arm around Sakura. He didn't care if they were still on the ground. He just wanted to be with her. 'I just hope…nothing will go wrong.'
With that, Sakura and Syaoran lets go of each other and sat on a nearby bench.
"Syaoran-kun?" Sakura says and holds his hands.
"Mmmhmm?"
"Have I ever told you that you're one handsome kid?"
"No. But thanks Sakura-chan. It means so much to me since you said it. But I do know I'm quite a hot kid, am I not?" Syaoran chuckles and tickles her neck.
"Heehee. I know you are. But in a weird sort of way," Sakura says and looks into Syaoran's eyes. Syaoran raised his right brow and frowned.
"In what way?" he asks and pretends to be stern.
"Everything Syaoran…everything."
Both of them grew quiet after Sakura said 'everything' It was awkward but after a few moments, they both burst out laughing and hugged each other. They both wished it would last forever…
End of Chapter One
A/N: I know the ending was a bit crappy. But hey, I couldn't think of a better ending that this. I'm going to skip the part where Syaoran leaves for Hong Kong. It'll make me cry…sighs But I promise you guys that the 2nd chapter would be even better than this crappy one. Haha Only if you want me to continue though…Just give me some feedback about the story and I shall continue!!! SO RR Till then, Chao! Plus check out my website for updates ;;
