You know how the chappie's called "Cheat"? Well, can you guess what happens? And who it has to do with? Good... oh, and a reviewer told me that Shaoran is spelled Syaoran, thinking I made a mistake by writing it like that. Yeah, thanks for noticing that I wrote it differently, but I know.
You see, I explained on my profile that I spell his name with sh instead of sy... both ways are correct. If you know Spanish or Portuguese and read fics in those languages you'll find that most of them spell Shaoran's name with sh and notwith sy... it's correct in those languages. (LikeI heard that in AustraliaShaoran's name was Li, but spelled "Lee"... get it?)
Don't worry, I thank you because you actually noticed that I spell the name differently. Thank you! Well, onto something else now... I think I'm dropping my rule on not writing another fic until I'm finished... I think y'all would like the banishing on the rule, eh? I dunno about it though... should I start working in another fic already? Your choice.
Disclaimer: CLAMP! I'll give y'all a buck if you give me Card Captor Sakura! (gets hit on the head multiple times) Ohh... (dizzy) I'll take that as a no, then!
PS: Oh, the song that is in the chappie is Behind These Hazel Eyes, by Kelly Clarkson... enjoy!
"Hey Cherry girl." Jay replied boredly in English as he came in the house.
Sakura turned to him and smiled softly. She didn't know if she'd be able to look at him and be the same way she used to... since... Shaoran kissed her. She did feel guilty and a bit dirty. Jay never cheated on her, and what she did was considered cheating.
"Hey Jay!" she exclaimed brightly, brushing food off her pink apron "Tired?"
"Nah."
True. He didn't seem to be tired at all. That was strange, since he was working all day. Sakura shrugged it off, it can't be that bad. Maybe he didn't need to work as much. Jay kissed her softly.
"So, how was your day yesterday?" he asked.
"Pretty good."
Pretty good? To Sakura it was more than simply 'pretty good'. She had felt great, awesome... there was a lot of words to describe her day. Now she realized that her life was like a soap opera: Dramatic, romantic, and full of suspense. She giggled to herself; her life was like a TV show.
"What's so funny?"
"Huh?" Sakura snapped out of her thinking "Oh! I was just remembering a little joke."
Jay nodded and sat on the couch. He turned on the TV and started to watch basketball. Sakura sighed again; what was up with him? One second he was paying total attention to her and the next he wasn't at all.
She sighed once more and sat next to him. "What's up?" she asked.
"Oh, nothin'..." Jay told her with a grin.
Sakura smiled and said "Good."
----------x----------x----------
As Jay showered Sakura was sitting in their bedroom. She looked toward his shirt and saw a crumpled pice of paper. She picked it up and gasped; it was a letter from her friend Jessie.
Dear Sakura,
Listen to me girl, and please don't get mad at me, okay? I'm actually shocked with what I have to tell you, and please don't think I'm jealous because you and Jay are together, because I'm not.
Last week (a week before I wrote this... before you went to Japan.) Marcie was working at the smoothie shop, and Jay came by. I was there, but I was in the back of the store. Jay was being way too flirty with Marcie, and she was taking it all in... then they just went to the back and started making out! They didn't see me, so they don't know that I know...
Listen, I'm really sorry. You've only known Jay for three years, while I've known him for plenty... about five years or so. I'd know if he actually did things like that or not, and trust me... he does. Marcie wasn't the only one... Lauren and her twin Laura was too, and Mina, and Jessica, and Madelline... he's been doing that ever since he became your boyfriend.
I'm telling you, don't lose your virginity with that jerk! He's not worth it... he already lost his, so he wouldn't care, but you... come on, Sakura! Do you actually think I'd lie to you? I know for a fact that you are mad at me, but I'd still like to be friends with you... please forgive me!
I'm sorry that your first boyfriend is a jerk... I really am. I hope you find someone who's right for you, because I don't think that Jay is... I'm sorry.
Love, Jessie
Remember, I love you, and I wouldn't lie to my best friend.
Sakura shook her head, disbelieving. Jay couldn't have possibly cheated on her... or could he? No, she thought, it couldn't be... but Jessie never had lied to her. Jessie was a great friend and knew everything about her. Will she believe her, or Jay? She simply did not know.
Sakura walked up to Jay's cellphone. She got into his voicemail and started to hear the latest message. A female... she couldn't tell who, but it was a female voice.
Hey Jay! Man, you are so much better than my boyfriend! A wonderful kisser too! I can see why you and Kinomoto couldn't get far together... she's too naïve... why don't you come over tonight, hmm? I was thinking we could have some fun! Well, byebye... call me!
Sakura could not believe it. Jay had cheated on her! More than once! How could he do something like that? She couldn't take it, and tears flew down her face. True, she did not love him, but he took advantage of her and played with her feelings. She did love him once, and knowing that he was doing it since then was heartbreaking.
'Can't believe that creep! He actually had the nerve!' she screeched in her head.
She hurriedly got out her suitcase and put all her things in it in a jumble before Jay got out of the shower. She heard the door open and saw Jay standing there in his jeans, looking confused at her.
"Sakura, what are you doing-"
"Don't give me that." she told him calmly "I saw the letter Jessie sent me... the one you tried to hide from me. Also read your messages... what's this about?"
She swore that the word he mumbled was "Shit!" but decided to ignore that.
"Listen to me, I can explain-" he started but was cut off by Sakura.
"Then please enlighten me." she said coldly.
Jay sighed and ran a hand through his hair. "Okay, I can't. I cheated on you, and there's nothin' we can do about that now..."
"Multiple times! Jay, h-how could y-you?" Sakura said, tears again threatning to spill.
"Listen to me now, you know I always looked into having fun, and you wanted a meaningful relationship. Look, you're hot, but you're just too naïve and innocent okay?"
"Oh yeah? I'm innocent? Well, let's see if this is innocent!" She slapped him on the right cheek and glared into his dark blue eyes. The eyes she loved at one point, and now completely loathed.
"Bye." she said plainly, picking up her suitcase and leaving without another word. She went into her 2005 Honda Accord and went to the park. She stood inside the car and listened to the radio.
Seems like just yesterday
You were a part of me
I used to stand so tall
I used to be so strong
Your arms around me tight
Everything, it felt so right
Unbreakable, like nothin' could go wrong
Now I can't breathe
No, I can't sleep
I'm barely hanging on
Here I am, once again
I'm torn into pieces
Can't deny it, can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up, deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I cry
Behind these hazel eyes
She sighed and lied on the carseat. She didn't love Jay, but felt heartbroken and taken advantage of. She wanted it all to end... she wanted to go back when she never met him.
I told you everything
Opened up and let you in
You made me feel alright
For once in my life
Now all that's left of me
Is what I pretend to be
So together, but so broken up inside
'Cause I can't breathe
No, I can't sleep
I'm barely hangin' on
Swallow me then spit me out
For hating you, I blame myself
Seeing you it kills me now
No, I don't cry on the outside
Anymore...
Here I am, once again
I'm torn into pieces
Can't deny it, can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up, deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I cry
Behind these hazel eyes
She placed her hands back on the wheel and started to drive. To where she did not know, but she wanted to go somewhere warm and comfortable other than the car. She longed for comfort and warmth more than anything at the moment. Sakura turned on the windshield wipers and sighed; it started to rain.
----------x----------x----------
She stopped and looked outside of the window, the rain pouring harshly on her head. She brought her suitcase along with her after she parked and walked toward the house. She rang the doorbell.
'Will Mother and Shaoran accept me?' she thought to herself.
Yelan answered the door and saw her former daughter standing there, all wet and with a large suitcase held off the grounds with her hands.
"Sakura?... what happened?" she asked.
Sakura took a deep breath and said "Can I live here again? Please?"
"What's going on?" Shaoran asked as he came to the door. He saw Sakura and said "What happened Saku?"
Sakura smiled slightly and then sighed. "Jay was cheating on me... I have no where else to go except for America, so can I please live with you guys again? I promise I'll find my own place later-"
Shaoran took her hand and pulled her inside. "It's fine." Yelan said as she closed the door "You can stay with us as much as you want to."
Sakura smiled. "Thanks Mother."
So, d'you know now? (giggles) Of course you do! Maybe I might have a little Shaoran and Sakura moment on the next chappie! Well, see ya then!
