Syaoran and Sakura are best friends and are as close together as brother and sister. But when both suffer the loss of one of their parents and Sakura's father re-marries, Sakura moves away into a (EVIL!) new family. Now Syaoran is gone! Will Sakura stand a chance?
Parody of a Korean drama...yadda yadda... ummm... this chappie is gonna be short.... REALLY SHORT. Cause I'm too lazy to actually put this part into a real chapter.

Over the years, Seiji slowly fell in love with Sakura. Who could blame him? For the first time in his life, someone had shown him true kindness!
The dilemma didn't just end there! Meiling, who we all know hates Sakura, never showed Sakura the many letters Syaoran had sent. Instead she read the letters herself and replied to them.
She once wondered whether Syaoran would be disappointed in her. Unfortunately, She quickly reasoned with herself and decided Syaoran would be disappointed in Sakura, not her. That was the closest to guilt she had ever felt.
So ten years went by. Ten years of Sakura being abused by Sesuna and Meiling. Ten years of Seiji constantly taking Sakura on dates, hoping she would fall in love with him as well.
Seiji's hopes for romance were, unintentionally, encouraged when one day, Seiji gave Sakura a four-leaf clover. Which was really a three-leaf clover that had an extra leaf stapled and taped on to it. He had given it to her as a good luck charm when she was stressing over finals. The day he gave it to her, she hugged him and told him she loved him, in a sisterly love, of course.
In ten years, Syaoran would be back for Sakura.

Kazegurl: (sob) I'm ashamed to call this a chapter! PLEASE DON'T KILL ME!!!!
The thing is, I didn't see some episodes, so I cant really give an adequate chapter!
How bout this, so I wont leave you guys hanging, I'll type down the episode that comes after this "chapter"! I warn you, Its also gonna be painfully short! I'll try to make it long! So I might put two episodes in, just to make it long!
Its gonna be short, cause I just had my braces tightened and two new brackets put in. If you remember how painful it was/is to have braces... double the pain!!! (swallows an Advil)
Just so you know: I haven't updated in so long, mainly because I wanted to see the relationship between all the characters, so I would be able to try and portray them better...
Also, I've just been lazy... SORRY! I've also been having my own little summer adventures with my friends! Y'know! End of summer memories before school starts!
Another thing, I'm gonna be a freshman (high school). I have two honors classes and a LOT of after school activities. I'm gonna be busy as heck! Plus, my mom told me that I couldn't spend as much time on the computer since I'm going into high school.
So, if you thought that the amount of time I didn't update with this chapter was long...
I don't know when I can take time aside for myself, so don't go checking for me everyday, ya hear! (chuckles) j/k j/k!
Updates will become very slow! But I promise I won't stop writing this story ok!?
Now... back to the (excruciatingly short) chapter!
---THE REST OF THIS CHAPTER IS WHEN SAKURA IS 23(do the math for everyone elses age)---
ununununununununununununununununununununununun
"Hey!" Seiji spoke quietly to Sakura. "Lets go out tonight ok?"
Sakura looked at Seiji, clearly annoyed. "Do we have to? We are always going out together!"
"C'mon Sakura! Just tonight! I have something to tell you!" Seiji said, fingering a small box inside his pocket.
'I'm gonna tell her tonight! I'll tell her I love her!'
Sakura looked up at Seiji and then finally spoke, in a tired tone. "I'll try to come..." The reply sounded reluctant and forced out, but Seiji was so glad that that he didn't hear it at all.
He didn't hear how reluctant she was and he didn't hear the 'try' part either.
"GREAT! See ya at seven! At Penguin Park!" He then ran off in a hurry.
Sakura stared at the spot where Seiji was once standing. She loved Seiji, with all her heart, but she could tell Seiji might have different feelings. Feelings that she could never return.
A single tear slipped out. She wouldn't go meet him.
'I don't want to just leave him there... but I shouldn't go either.'
"Im so sorry Sei-kun" Sakura whispered to herself. "But my feelings are for Syao-kun. And his alone."
/At Penguin Park, hours after seven o'clock/
Seiji sat alone on a swing, almost in the pitch black, except for a lone streetlight that flickered behind a large mass of trees. In the dark, tears fell freely from his eyes. He felt so rejected. Had Sakura turned her back on him as well?
"No!" He whispered, his voice strained by the cold of the night air. "She will be here!"
So he waited, and waited, and waited, and she never came.
But he was far too stubborn, and waited almost all night, and fell asleep under the penguin slide.
Sakura worried for Seiji and barely slept at all. Early in the morning she woke up with a jolt, and thought that Seiji was back.
Sakura crept out of her room and checked to see if Seiji was in his room. No one, and his bed was never touched. Sakura quickly grabbed a heavy coat and ran out to look for Seiji.
"Seiji!" Sakura gasped, when she saw him sleeping under the slide, his breath shallow.
Sakura shook him awake. "Seiji! You idiot! Why did you stay here all night!?"
"Sakura..." Seiji's voice was slurred and he began to tremble. Sakura took of her coat and wrapped it around Seiji.
"Sakura... I love you!" The words hit Sakura like a bombshell.
"W-w-what are you saying! We are brother and sister!" Sakura screamed at Seiji. "Are you insane!?!"
Seiji didn't answer and looked down at his feet.
"Look, Seiji, I love you! I really do! But only a sibling love! You know I love Syaoran!"
Sakura paused for a second, letting what she just said, to sink in.
"Besides, Syaoran is finally coming back tomorrow... So I can't be with you!" Sakura's voice trembled a bit. She hated that she was hurting him so much.
"Go back home okay? I... I'm gonna go make some breakfast...My famous pancakes! So you better be there!" Sakura said, trying to lift the mood.
"Just come home ok?" Sakura said quietly and walked back home.
/Back at the house/
Sakura was busy making pancakes while Meiling sat at the table pondering, out loud, about when Syaoran would come back.
Sakura grinned to herself. She had managed to intercept a letter from Syaoran. Despite the fact that he never got a reply from her, he still continued to write to her. By luck, the one letter she had managed to intercept, told her when he was coming back.
Later around 5:00 pm Seiji finally came home. As soon as he did, he went strait to his room. Sakura spent the next two hours trying to get him out.
The phone rang. "Sakura! Get the phone!" Meiling said snootily, over the years, Sakura pretty much became Meiling's personal maid.
"Hello? Who is this?"
'Sakura! It's me! Are you surprised? I'm here at San-yueh!' (AN: Remember? The mall?)
"S-Syao-kun!!!" Meiling's ears perked up at Syaoran's name. (AN: lol ..)
'Haha...yup! I decided to come a day early to surprise you!'
"Your really already here!?!?!"
'Yup! Why don't you come over here?'
"At San-yueh? Right now!?"
'Yeah!'
"I'll be there right away!" Sakura hung up the phone and went to get a coat.
"SYAORAN'S ALREADY HERE!?! AT SAN-YUEH!" Meiling screamed so loudly, that Seiji heard in his room and ventured out to hear.
Sakura only looked at Meiling, then went back to get her coat.
"HE IS HERE! YOU ARE SO NOT GOING ANYWHERE!" Meiling said as she tried to block Sakura from the doorway.
"Let meeee go!" Sakura pushed her way out and ran to the street and hailed a taxi. She would have gone and driven her own car, but Meiling was in the way.
Meiling quickly ran to their room and looked through Sakura's jewelry box and found her car keys. While Meiling was still looking for the keys, Seiji already ran off after Sakura's taxi.
On the taxi, Sakura pulled out a picture out of the pocket. It was a picture of her and Syaoran the day they went to the beach to look for clams and ended up getting covered in sand.
Sakura giggled at the memory as the taxi pulled up at her destination. Still clutching the picture, Sakura stepped out and looked for Syaoran.
"Sakura! Up here!" Sakura looked up to see Syaoran on a balcony. His amber eyes and messy hair just the same way as she remember it.
"Syao-kun!!!" Sakura waved wildly at Syaoran.
"Meet me over there!" Syaoran shouted as he pointed towards the main entrance into the mall, across the street.
"OK!" Syaoran ran inside, obviously to make his way all the way over to the main entrance.
Sakura stood for about a minute just smiling. She was happy, he was finally here after ten long years. Then she started heading towards the street to cross it.
Just while Sakura was crossing the street, Meiling drove onto the street in a crazed frenzy. She failed to notice Sakura crossing the street.
Unfortunately, Sakura didn't see Meiling until it was too late. She caught a glimpse of Meiling, who looked like a mad woman, just before she was hit by the car.
Meiling was broken out of her crazed trance when she saw the blood all over the windshield. She quickly got out of the care and saw Sakura in a puddle of her own blood.
Meiling quickly picked Sakura up, eyes wide with crazy fear, and shoved Sakura's dead body into the back of the car and tried to wipe the blood of the windshield.
Meiling got back in the driver seat and looked at her hands. They were covered in blood, her eyes widened and her hands shook uncontrollably. In frenzy, she drove away just as Syaoran came out.
He looked around and saw no one. Then he noticed a puddle of strange liquid. He touched it and realized it was blood and saw the picture that Sakura was holding before. Tears began to come out and he didn't notice the car that was speeding away, but Seiji did, when he saw Syaoran kneeling on the street and crying and ran after Sakura's car.
Meiling stopped at a hospital and quickly ran in. Maybe she could find some help?
"The poor lady... Got caught in a fire, it's impossible to identify her!" A nearby nurse chatted with a co-worker.
Meiling's ears perked up. "Impossible to identify, eh?" She grinned maliciously and ran out to the car. She pulled out Sakura's wallet, ID and all, and ran back into the hospital and found the burned 'unidentifiable' corpse and lifted its cover.
The smell of the body hit her like a sledgehammer. She took Sakura's wallet and gingerly put it into, what resembled, a pocket. She grimaced at the feel of the flesh, and ran out side a drove away, pondering what she could do with Sakura's body.
Meanwhile, Syaoran had called the police to investigate. He stood alone, staring at the picture he had found. Wishing that Sakura would pop out of nowhere and tell him it was all a prank.
"Li-sama! A local hospital called! They found her body!"
Syaoran snapped out of his reverie and his knees buckled.
"Are... Are you serious? She's dead?" He couldn't believe it. His childhood sweetheart was dead.
/Akio's shack/
"Dad! DAD! Are you there!?! Its me! MEILING!" Meiling shouted as she banged on the door.
The door swung open. "Meiling? What are you doing here?!"
"Please Dad! You have to help me!" Meiling showed him Sakura's body and explained everything.
"I can't believe this.. You come to visit for the first time in ten years, and the reason you're here is to ask me to hide a dead body!" Akio screamed indignantly.
"No! She isn't dead! Just unconscious!"
"So?! She's as good as dead!"
"Oh? So this is how it's gonna be? Your gonna let me get caught and thrown in jail?"
"Meiling..."
"Fine! They can take me! But you will be left with the guilt, that you put your own daughter in jail!"
"Fine, I'll take care of her..." Akio could never bear to let her go to jail, no matter how much she deserved it. (AN: lol)
"Good." Meiling smiled to herself, evilly.
