Chapter 13: I love you

She was in her room, staring at the ceiling, somehow sleeping was something that disappeared from her vocabulary. He was leaving… and she knew that all along, she just didn't expected him to leave so soon. And there was nothing she could do about it.

She kept telling herself that she should at least enjoy their last days together, there was no point in being depressed over this ahead of time. After he's left she'd have lots of time to wallow. But that was easier said than done.

The next morning just seemed so depressing to her she didn't even had her breakfast, she was in no mood to eat. She was about to leave her house and go to school when she saw him sitting on her porch reading a book.

After he noticed her presence he closed the book, looked at her and smiled sweetly.

"I thought you'd take longer!" He said trying to act happy.

"Yeah… I wasn't hungry" She tried her best to not sound so bummed but it wasn't working.

"You have to eat something! I'll buy you something on the way to school"

And they started walking, Syaoran was trying so hard to make her smile, but it wasn't working, it was a sad picture. They both depressed and trying to act happy so the other one wouldn't get so affected.

As soon as they walked into the school they headed to their class. Tomoyo who knew her friend better than anyone else noticed something was wrong, so she told her teacher she was feeling ill and she needed to go to the nursery, and she needed Sakura to go with her.

Obviously the teacher let them go so Sakura and Tomoyo found themselves walking alone through the school hallways.

"Shoot" Tomoyo told to her friend. She noticed how Sakura was quickly trying to make up a fake story to hide the real facts but she glared at her so badly Sakura just sighed and told her the whole story.

"This is just wrong!" Tomoyo kept saying after a looooooong walk. "I mean you guys finally get together and he just leaves!"

"Well we knew he was going to leave" Responded Sakura bummed out "Either way I'm just gonna enjoy my time with him here, and try not to think about this… it's just too depressing"

The rest of the day went like it usually did, school finished, Sakura and Syaoran walked home together she crashed at his house the whole afternoon, watching tv, making out for as long as they could, eating a lot of food, the usual things.

When it got dark Sakura figured her brother was probably waiting for her to eat dinner so she told Syaoran she had to leave. He walked her to the door, and before he kissed her goodbye he made a face Sakura had learned to recognize, that face that meant he was thinking of something but wasn't quite sure if he should tell her or not.

"What's up?" She asked him, and smiled to herself watching how stunned he looked when he noticed how much she was getting to now him.

"I…" He started but he was having a hard time finding the words "I… do you remember… no never mind" He finished

"What!" Sakura asked sucker punching him on the chest

"Nothing! Never mind, you should go, your brother is probably really mad right now, it's getting late"

She knew he wouldn't say anything else so she kissed him and left to her house. As expected her brother was already waiting for her, they had their dinner, and Sakura left to her room.

She hated being there alone, it was too silent, and she felt lonely, and that always lead to her thinking about Syaoran leaving. It always ended with her deciding once again not to think of it again.

She took a bath to relax a bit, and when she got out of the tub and was putting on her pyjamas she heard some music coming over from Syaoran's house. She went to the window and saw him playing his guitar. She loved to watch him play, he looked so inspired.

Suddenly, she found out the reason why she was feeling this way, why her heart ached so much every time she thought about him leaving her, she loved him, she loved to watch him, she loved to kiss him, she loved to touch him, she loved him.

A smile appeared on her face, and she felt the urge to tell him, to kiss him, to be with him. She stormed out of her room and left her house quietly so Touya wouldn't notice she wasn't there.

The back door to his house was open as she expected it to be. Wei was probably sleeping by now, so she would surprise him. She walked up the stairs and stood in front of the wooden door for what seemed like and eternity to her. She could hear the music playing behind the door.

So she took a deep breath and opened the door softly. The music stopped and as she opened the door completely she found Syaoran staring intently at her, a little confused to see her there, but he couldn't hide the happiness he felt when he saw her.

"Sakura! What are you doing here! Does your brother know you are here!" He left the guitar on the floor and walked over to her.

"I… no I left the house quietly so Touya wouldn't notice" She said nervous. Her whole body was shaking, and Syaoran started moving his hands through her arms to warm her up a little.

"What are you doing here?"

"I was in my room, and I took a bath and when I came out I heard you playing, so I went to the window and I was looking at you play and I found out something and I just had to see you" She was talking so fast that Syaoran was actually having a hard time following every word she said.

"So I came here" She kept on talking "And now I'm here, and… I love you"

Sakura closed her eyes, waiting for the worst, for him to say something like thank you, you are so nice or something like that, but when she opened her eyes and looked at him she erased that thought from her mind.

"I love you too Sakura, you are the best thing that's ever happened to me, and I love you" He said, there was so much happiness on his voice on her face, that Sakura forgot everything else.

She had never been so happy in her life. Syaoran was the best thing that had ever happened to her, there would never be anyone else that could at least compare to him.

Syaoran lowered his face and kissed her sweetly, his hands on her face, and Sakura on her tip toes to reach him.

That moment, there in that room, was the best moment they ever had. Nothing could top all those emotions, all that love they had for each other. It was just too much, it was true love, it was THE love.

Sakura woke up that morning and had a huge smile on her face. It was now Saturday, and she going to spend the whole day with him. Doing what she had no idea, but she would spend it with him.

She tried her best not to think that he was going to be leaving in a week. Next Sunday Syaoran would go back to China for good. But even with those thoughts on her mind she couldn't help but feel happy. Syaoran was the best thing that had happened to her. She laughed to herself when she remembered how they met, and how much she had hated him then. And now… she loved him.

A knock on her door distracted her from her thoughts. Her brother entered the room, with his usual not so happy look.

"There is that stupid brat looking fro you"

Sakura jumped out of bed and started looking from some clothes, unaware of the fact that her brother was still in there.

"So he is your boyfriend now?" He asked sceptically. Sakura looked at her brother not sure whether to punch him for meddling in her life or to tell him that Syaoran was her boyfriend. "I don't care!" He responded seconds later noticing Sakura wasn't telling him anything.

"Don't keep him waiting, I don't like his stupid face" Touya said before leaving her room. Sakura got dressed and met Syaoran on her living room.

They spent most part of the morning walking around, buying ice cream and just talking. Then on the afternoon they met with Tomoyo and Eriol.

That day went so peacefully, and so happily that Sakura was sad when it ended. She loved days like that, days where the only thing that mattered was the time she spent with him, with the guy she loved.
