Syaoran POV
Flashback
"My dad's taking me away to America tomorrow in the morning. So farewell."
End of Flashback
"Sakura…" I muttered to myself. Why couldn't we just be friends? Was our friendship really worth all of it?
I looked into the mirror, staring at my reflection. My messy chocolate brown hair, intense amber eyes… I looked away and ran my hand through my hair.
I walked into the shower to have a nice cold bath to clear my mind. I let the cold water ran down my well-toned body. Feeling the coldness run down my spine. I just stood there thinking.
'Sakura…" I thought. Closing my eyes I tried to picture her in my mind. Her waist-length honey-brown hair, that flows behind her, like a never-ending river. Her gorgeous pair of emerald orbs that can make any guy mesmerize. She was like a fairy-tale character. No ones that perfect. Her smooth ivory skin glows in the sunlight her long slender legs were dazzling. She herself was a picture of perfection.
"Stop Syaoran, Stop!" I cried out loud. You already rejected her. So stop thinking about her like some weird dude. She's so perfect though! The inner me cried. I tried to ignore it but was unsuccessful.
I opened my eyes and looked down at my body. "Shit!" I screamed, realizing that I had forgotten to take off my clothes before heading into the shower heads.
"Dude Syaoran. What the hell's the matter with you?" I muttered and changed my soaking wet clothes. I wrapped the towel around my lower part of my body. Slowly I walked into my bedroom, passing a beautifully framed picture. I picked it up and stared at it, entranced.
It was me and Sakura. It was taken last year at the cherry blossom festival (A/N donno if there's such thing but oh well.) around our favourite Sakura tree. I was standing behind her, arms around her tiny waist, resting my chin on her slender shoulder. I was wearing a green haori, while Sakura was wearing a beautiful pink kimono with cherry blossoms imprinted on it.
"Wow," I said softly. We look like a couple. How could I have not recognized this? I lead her on. It was my entire fault… I look closer at the picture and found myself smiling warmly.
Then it hit me like a brick. "I'm in love," I stated suddenly, "I'm in love… with Sakura."
Author's note: Yeah I know. It was short. Now that Syaoran realize he loves Sakura what would he do? Stay tuned, and reviews will be greatly appreciated!
