Chapter 7: My Heart
Eriol dragged Tomoyo to the side of the school. "Tomoyo, look, that's not the reason why Syaoran doesn't like you." Tomoyo slapped Eriol.
"YOU KNOW HE'S LYING TO SAKURA! SAKURA IS AN INNOCENT GIRL! HOW COULD YOU GUYS!" Tomoyo yelled loudly at him.
"Look, Tomoyo, it wasn't his fault he's engaged! His mother forced him, he was engaged ever since he was a kid! It's part of the Li Clan tradition."
"I don't care about some freaking tradition! Even though I don't know Sakura that well, I know she doesn't….forget it! I'm telling her!" Tomoyo was about to walk away, Eriol quickly grabbed her hand, Tomoyo turned around and Eriol kissed her on the lips. Tomoyo backed away.
"Tomoyo, I love you. Please don't tell anybody, especially Sakura." Eriol then ran into the school.
In Class
Tomoyo stared at Eriol throughout the whole class. 'Why am I staring at him, it isn't the kiss or is it?' Tomoyo thought.
Tomoyo's face turned bright red. 'Thinking about it even makes me blush!'
"Daidouji!" Tomoyo didn't hear the call from the teacher. "HELLO! DAIDOUJI!"
"Huh?"
"You're awake from dream land? Could you answer this math question on the board?"
"Oh okay…" Tomoyo went up to the board, on the way, Eriol put a note into Tomoyo's hand before the teacher noticed.
Tomoyo quickly wrote the answer and went back to the desk to check the note.
I'm sorry about the kiss, but I really like you. Meet me at the roof during lunch, if you don't show up, then I'll assume you don't love me.
-Eriol
Tomoyo looked at the note. 'I don't know.'
Sakura and Syaoran both noticed something was going on between Eriol and Tomoyo. They just smiled at each other and hoped for the best between them.
Lunch
Sakura and Syaoran were sitting below a cherry blossom tree staring up at the roof of the school. "Do you think Daidouji will go?" Syaoran looked at Sakura.
"I think she will." Sakura smiled. "They're both delicate and kind people once you get to know their good side."
"Sakura…you're one of a kind." Sakura smiled. "Hey Syaoran, I just thought of another song."
Sakura stood up infront of Syaoran. "Good afternoon! My name is Sakura Kinomoto! I guess you're my only audience today! Well enjoy!"
The night is wavering in the water
The greening shore is so still and silent
That makes it painful
Eriol was standing alone on the roof of the school, staring out into the blue skies.
If only I could wait
For a beautiful dawn
With a pure heart..
Tomoyo was slowly going up the stairs. Still thinking, 'Eriol…'
Who told me that
There is a land without any conflicts
Beyond the dark seas and skies?
No one can reach the land,
Or perhaps it only exists in someone's heart
'Please come, I love you…'
A melody that can quench the thirst
Of the Land that calms the waters' flow
Even if it doesn't exist anywhere right now,
I will come to possess it
Always, someday, for sure
Tomoyo stood at the doorway and saw Eriol. "Eriol.." she whispered as the wind passed by. Eriol was happy to see the one he loved infront of him. Tomoyo walked and quickly changed her pace and ran into his arms.
Let the token of water be in my hands
Even after engulfing all the flames
It still continues to flow, gently and broadly
I will reach its tranquility
Always, someday, for sure
With your hand in mine…
"I love you too." Eriol hugged Tomoyo tightly.
Sakura looked down and saw that Syaoran had fallen asleep. She smiled and small tears started coming out of her eyes. "A calm land, it doesn't exist yet, because I can't find it."
Syaoran woke up and discovered lunch was almost over, and didn't see Sakura anywhere.
"Sakura?" Syaoran got up and looked around. Sakura was sitting on the branch of the cherry blossom tree. "What's wrong?"
Syaoran climbed up the tree and sat beside her. "Syaoran, do you think I'm dirty?"
Syaoran was surprised by the question. "No, why would I? Sakura if it's because of your past? I don't care, I like you the way you are." Syaoran was about to put his arm around her waist, but Sakura quickly jumped off the tree.
"Don't follow me." Sakura said coldly. "Sakura!" Syaoran jumped off quickly, but when he looked up, Sakura had left.
"SAKURA!" Syaoran screamed loudly.
Eriol and Tomoyo heard Syaoran's screaming and looked down the school roof. Syaoran was standing there. Eriol and Tomoyo stared at each other and quickly ran down the stairs of the school.
Sakura's POV
I quickly ran out of school property. I'm a dirty person, I don't know why I cam here, I shouldn't be living. I want to know, why I came here, something led me here. I don't know what it is. I want to know. I hate being confused!
I'll keep running, until I meet up with that place, a place where I can be steady. Right?
I looked up, and stopped running. The ocean, the endless ocean, it has endless paths. Destiny. Destiny leads people to different places, the different paths created by destiny. I could have killed myself after the incident.
I knew from the start I became a dirty child after what he did to me. But why didn't I resolve to killing myself?
I don't know why. Why?
"Child, shouldn't you be in class right now?" A tall lady with long black hair, she had delicate skin and looked beautiful, she stared down at me. "I don't know if I should be in this world."
"Oh, why is that?"
"I'm a disgusting person, I don't know what led me to this place. I don't know what it is. I'm so confused." I wrapped her arms around herself.
"Child, if you weren't alive, some people wouldn't have such a wonderful time now. I'm sure a lot of people wouldn't be the person they are. I can feel your kind aura, but it's confused."
"Yes…some people…who?"
"Isn't there some people that love and care for you?"
"Yuri-san…Kai-san..my co-workers….the elders in the apartment…..and him…" Syaoran's image popped into my mind. That's right, I just ran away from him without telling him why.
"Thank you so much!" I bowed to the lady, she smiled back at me. I quickly ran back to school. I'm so sorry Syaoran! I'm coming back, I won't do this again.
The lady smiled. "We'll meet again, Sakura Kinomoto."
End of POV
'Syaoran! Syaoran!' Sakura kept screaming the name in her mind. Syaoran was standing at the school entrance. Syaoran saw Sakura coming.
Sakura ran into him and hugged him. She was panting silently. "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" She cried to him.
Syaoran wrapped his arms around Sakura. "It's okay." He hugged her and brushed her delicate auburn hair.
'I think…I might have found my calm land…'
