FANTASY DREAMS

Chapter 9

Sakura woke up and Syaoran wasn't in the room. She thought she was going to have a head ache but she didn't. She smiled as she remembered last nights events. She had such a great time.

The door was closed, but Syaoran wasn't there, probably someone got there and opened the door. She got up and went to his cabinet and found a large old shirt she wore to go to her room. No one was in the hallway, so it was safe. She walked over to her room and threw herself on her bed. A sigh escaped her mouth and she smiled. She was so stupid, she knew it, but she didn't feel bad about it. If Syaoran wanted to use her then she was going to use him as well. She really enjoyed it.

As the morning ended Sakura went over to look for Tomoyo .

"HELLO!" She said as she entered her friends room.

"Good morning Sakura! You sure look happy today" Tomoyo said with an evil smile and looked at her friend " I heard some weird rumours this morning" Sakura looked at her friend with confusion on her face "Someone said they had to open Li's door because he locked himself in… how weird huh?" Sakura smiled and looked elsewhere

"What's that to with me?" She said smiling

"Well I went looking for you this morning… you weren't there" She smiled "And I also hear that the prince went this morning straight to his mothers chambers, and ordered Meiling to go there as well… what do you think is going on?"

"I…" She couldn't find what to say to her friend and started blushing

"It's so sweet Sakura!" Tomoyo yelled out of the blue "But you have to keep it a secret or Meiling is going to kill you!"

"It is a secret! Besides it's not like it is going to happen again" She said seriously "I had fun though"

Sakura and Tomoyo spent the whole day together, chatting and having fun. They went to visit Eriol, who looked a bit stressed. So they left him alone and went back to the castle.

Syaoran entered Eriol's cabin and sat on a chair, looking at his friend, waiting for him to ask what was wrong but Eriol just looked at him

"Aren't you going to ask?" He said annoyed

"What?" Eriol said acting all cool.
"I told Meiling I don't want to marry her… she almost killed me!" he sighed and kept on talking "The thing is that now I have to go to her kingdom and convince her parents to stop this marriage!"

"You have greater problems Syaoran" Eriol said seriously "I got a message this morning, from the Zaran kingdom… they are looking for Sakura… her family is looking for her" Syaoran stood in shock, that wasn't possible. She had been there for so long that he figure they had just died or thought she had died. He didn't want to let her go, but she was a princess, and if his mother found out about this, she was going to order to return her to her family, he didn't want that.

Syaoran stood up irritated and looked at Eriol

"Who else knows!"

"One of the scouts told me this morning… you mother is going to find out Syaoran… I'm sorry"

Syaoran stood silent for a second.

"Did someone order him to inform my mother?"

"I don't think so, but your mother will find out eventually, and who knows what hill happen then, you have to do something if you want to keep Sakura" Syaoran couldn't say a word, he just stayed there, thinking what to do.

"I know…" He stood up and walked to the door "I'll see you later"

He arrived at the castle and tried to find the scout, but that was almost impossible. So he decided to go to his mother. That way he would find out if she already knew and do something about it.

As he entered his mothers chamber he noticed Meiling was there, tear running down her eyes. She saw him and cleaned the tears, then she looked at him with angry eyes and a proud position.

"Syaoran I have new for you" His mother started "You are going to go with Meiling back to her kingdom, and you are going to talk to her father. If he disagrees with you … decision, then the marriage is still happening" Meiling had a satisfied look on her face. She probably knew her father was going to disagree and the marriage would have to happen. But right now, that was the least of his worries.

He nodded to his mothers commands and walked over to her.

"Is that all you wish to tell me mother?" If she knew about Sakura's family then she would say something, but she looked at him with a confused look… she didn't know, that was good.

"Of course it is, isn't that enough?" Syaoran just tried to hide the happiness and looked at his mother. "You are going to leave tomorrow at first hour, so go get ready, you have a long way to go tomorrow" Sayoran vowed to his mother and Meiling and left the room, he had to find that scout.

Sakura decided to train a little bit that afternoon, and when she was ready, she went to her room, she needed to rest, the workout and last night events wore her out. After a while someone knocked on her door, and it opened right before she could open it herself. Syaoran was standing there, with a big smile. He walked over to her and kissed her softly.

"How's your day so far?" He asked throwing himself on her bed

"Fine" She said going to the bed, and laying next to him "Yours?"
"You have no idea!" He said placing his arms around her and kissing her softly "But we don't have to talk about it" He started kissing her chin and going down to her shoulder "This is the best part of my day" Sakura laughed and moved him away softly with her hands, staring into his eyes.

"I heard some rumours about Meiling today… they said she is leaving" Sakura told him, waiting for explanations

"Well I told her I don't want to get married" Sakura's eyes widened but she tried to hide her amazement as he went on "But I have to go to her kingdom and convince her father to brake the engagement… I leave tomorrow"
"You think he's going to agree?"

"I don't know" He said softly, he didn't want to think about it, he wanted Sakura so badly that he was willing to do anything for her.

The spent the night together, just holding each other, enjoying the time the had to themselves. The fell asleep quickly. And when Sakura woke up the next day he was already gone. He left a note on her dresser. 'Wait for me, I'll be back for you' it said, she smiled and placed the note somewhere safe.

Two days had passed since Syaoran had left with Meiling. Sakura spent most of her time training or hanging out with Tomoyo and Eriol. Things were really calm and she had a lot of free time, she was actually happy. She decided not to think about Syaoran or what would happen when he was in that kingdom, probably the king was going to refuse letting him destroy their engagement, but she had to be positive. Maybe the king was really smart and knew that if he forced them to marry Meiling would be miserable next to Syaoran… she just hoped that was true.
That morning she was taking a walk through the forests with Tomoyo when a messenger found them. The queen requested Sakura's presence on her chamber right away. He didn't know what the meeting was about, so Sakura started walking towards the queen's chambers with Tomoyo. When they got there Tomoyo waited outside as Sakura entered the room.
The queen was sitting down behind her huge desk holding a paper on her hands, she was reading it and had a blank expression on her face.

"You called for me your majesty?" Sakura said politely as she entered and sat down a chair in front of the queen, who nodded at Sakura's question.
"My dear, I have news…" She started silently "This came in this morning, a bird messenger delivered it, it's from the Zaran country" She handed the paper to Sakura, who started reading it.

She couldn't believe it, her dad and brother were alive! They were sending scouts looking for her. She looked at the queen with tears coming from her eyes

"You know it's forbidden to ever leave this kingdom once you've entered" She started talking, Sakura just looked at her with pleading eyes as she talked "But being who you are, we can make and exception Sakura…"She paused for a second and then went on speaking "It's up to you, we can tell them you are here, and that we are sending you to them as soon as possible, or you can stay here… waiting for Syaoran" Syaoran, she had forgotten about him, he left to get rid of his engagement to be with her, but now that she found out that her family was alive… she didn't know what to do "I can give you time to think about it. It would be really easy for me to say we haven't seen you, but if you decided you want to go back with them…" She didn't finish talking. Sakura had no words at that moment. So she just nodded and started walking towards the door. Tomoyo was waiting for her outside and she got really worried when she saw Sakura's face. She told her friend what had happened, and Tomoyo was just as shook up as Sakura. She wanted to be alone so she excused herself and went to the forest, to her favourite spot to clear her mind.
