Chapter 3: Tell Her
A/N: I am pretending Syaoran wrote the song in this chapter. I have a video for this in my profile it's under CCS WTTH Chapter 3 Tell Her.
Neither knew but both were there. Under the same moon. Same stars. Same sky. Looking at the exact same moon wanting the other.
Syaoran's pov
I looked up at the moon. I saw her. The one that ever so haunted my dreams, my heart, my soul, my mind. Sakura. I could see her face in the moon. It was as clear as if she was standing right in front of me. From her beautiful emerald eyes to her spirit lifting sunrise smile. Anyone who got to see that beautiful face everyday would be lucky. Her brother probably wouldn't say it aloud but I know he thought so too. It was a mistake to leave her. But then I would've troubled her and she would have had to answer me. I couldn't cause her that pain. I know that if I meant something to her she would be in much pain. But I doubt it. I was just her friend that helped her capture and change the cards. I know she's happy but something keeps telling me otherwise. I have a feeling that she's in pain. As if her heart ha shattered and she needs me there to re piece it. Those are just lies that my head made up to give me a reason to go back. But sometimes I swear it's my heart talking to me. I turned back to my desk. There sat a single sheet of paper. I had been writing. A song. Sounds cheesy for me Li Syaoran to be writing a song but I just felt like it was a good way to express my feelings. This song I'm making is for Sakura. She'll probably never hear it but I know one day she'll know why I wrote it. I had better get to sleep it's past midnight.
The Next Morning
I heard my door open. Someone started to shake my shoulder.
"Syaoran. Syaoran get up." Meilin said.
"Mm up." I mumbled
"Good cuz were going to the park for a breakfast picnic. So get dressed." She demanded leaving the room.
I got up and got dressed. I looked at the clock to find that it was twelve in the afternoon. I slept for almost twelve hours. Wow. No wonder Meilin was in such a hurry. I walked down to the kitchen to find Meilin with a picnic basket.
"Let's go!" She exclaimed.
We walked to the park and sat under the trees near the swings. We ate in silence. Her and I both got up and went to the swings and sat down.
"Ok Syaoran. What's the deal? For the last little while you've locked yourself in your room only to come down for meals, you never talk anymore, and this morning I found this on your desk." She pulled a piece of paper out of her bag. It was my song.
I looked down at my feet and said nothing.
"You miss her don't you? Miss Kinomoto?" She asked.
"Yeah." I said blankly still staring at my feet.
"You made this song for her right." Sh asked.
I nodded.
"Did it truly come from the heart?" She asked.
I nodded
"I want to help you then. You have the words and I can create the music. I have a program on my computer. I know you want it to be a big secret and you want to do it by yourself but a little help from your cousin wouldn't hurt. And I know you want your words to reach Miss Kinomoto so I'm doing it no matter what." She said.
I fell off my swing.
"Meilin, I may want my words to reach Sakura but I never intentionally wanted the song to be a big thing with music. I just wanted the words." She looked at me looked away then looked back with a puzzling look on her face.
"Well…… Tough luck cuz you're getting it anyway." She said determinately. "We'd better get back to your house then I have to hurry home and make the music. You finish the lyrics. OK Syaoran?" She said getting up and grabbing the basket.
"Yeah." I said.
We walked back to my house then Meilin left to hers. I walked inside and went up to my room. I locked my door and sat down at my desk. I looked at the song.
"Sakura" I said.
I picked my pencil up and started to write. Every word coming from the heart. For my number one.
An hour later I put my pencil down satisfied with what I had written.
I heard a knock on my door. I walked over and unlocked it. I opened the door to come face to face with my oldest sister.
"Here Syaoran. I brought you a snack." She said walking over to my bed and sitting down. I closed the door and sat down next to her.
"Shaoran are you alright?" She asked.
I looked down at my feet.
"When you cam back you seemed like one of the happiest people on earth and now you won't barely leave your room. What Happened?" She asked again.
I tried not to say anything but one word escaped my lips.
"Sakura." I said in a whisper but she heard me.
"Sakura? That girl from Japan?" She asked.
I nodded.
"I figured that. You like her don't you?" She said.
I shook my head.
"You don't like her." She asked standing up.
I shook my head again.
She walked over to my desk. I heard her pick up some papers.
"You love her don't you Syaoran?" She asked.
I nodded my head.
She sat back down on the bed and gave me a hug.
"Why didn't you tell? You promised when you found the person you loved you would tell me. But more importantly did you tell her?" She asked.
"Yes." I said.
"Did you get her reply?"
"No. I had left for Hong Kong two days after I told her. But I gave her the bear I had made for her before I left." I said.
"Oh Syaoran! You must be dieing inside. You must miss her so much." She said hugging me again.
I just nodded.
"I won't tell anyone don't worry. But I bet mom probably already knows can't keep a secret from her." She said as she picked up the tray of snacks and left.
"Oh hi Meilin." She said as she walked out the door.
"Syaoran I finished the music have you finished the lyrics? "Meilin asked.
"Yeah." I said.
"Well come on then. I have a room in the recording studio booked so we can add the lyrics to the song." She said grabbing my hand and pulling me outside where a taxi was waiting for us. We rode to the recording studio and got to the room.
"Ok Syaoran you go to that room and put on the head phones and I'll do the rest. I'll give you a que when to start singing and just follow the melody" She said.
I went to the little room as she got everything ready. She put on the music and gave me the que and I started to sing.
Meilin's POV
I sent him to the room and set up my laptop on a desk in the corner and put on my quick cam so I could talk to Tomoyo while he was recording the song. She told me Sakura was sleeping over so this was perfect. I turned it on and saw Tomoyo and Sakura.
"Hi guys. I have a surprise for you Miss Kinomoto." I said as I put on the music and stepped out of the way so they could see Syaoran.
"He wrote this song for you Miss Kinomoto." I said as I gave Syaoran his que and he started to sing.
I
know how it feels
To wake up without her
Lying here all
alone
Just thinking about her
I can't believe
Her hold
on me
it's somethin indiscribable
I know she knows
But won't

If you see my girl
Just tell her i miss her

Tell her I'm counting the minutes
Gonna see her in a
little while
Cause I know when she
Holds onto me
She's the
one thing that i could never live without
Oh oh oh oh
Tell her
I love her
Oh yeah
Just tell her I love her
The way that
she moves
You know what it does to me
When I catch her eye
I
can hardly breathe
Still can't believe
Her hold on me
She's
just so indiscribable
I know she knows
But won't you please
If
you see my girl
Just tell her i miss her smile
Tell her I'm
counting the minutes
Gonna see her in a little while
Cause I
know when she
Holds onto me
She's the one thing that i could
never live without
Oh oh oh oh
Tell her I love her
Every
time that I'm around her
I just go to pieces crashing, tumbling to
the ground
I'm so glad I found her
I know how it feels
If
you see my girl
Just tell her i miss her smile
Tell her I'm
counting the minutes
Gonna see her in a little while
Cause I
know when she
Holds onto me
She's the one thing that i could
never live without
Oh oh oh oh
Just tell her I love her
If
you see my girl
Just tell her i miss her smile
Tell her I'm
counting the minutes
Gonna see her in a little while
Cause I
know when she
Holds onto me
She's the one thing that i could
never live without
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
And
tell her I love her
Just tell her I love her
"Syaoran." Sakura said
Syaoran looked up but saw only me as I was standing in front of my laptop so he didn't know that I had brought it.
"That was wonderful Syaoran!" I exclaimed. "I have four copies one for you and one for me and two for to other people I want to give it to. He came out of the little room and took his copy and walked out. I went back to my computer to talk to Tomoyo and Sakura.
"Did you like it?" I asked.
Sakura had tears in her eyes.
"I loved it!" Tomoyo said.
"I recorded it too." I said turning the cam to my camera that Syaoran had somehow had not seen. "What about you Miss Kinomoto?"
She just nodded.
"Who knew Syaoran could sing so good. Right Tomoyo?" I asked.
"Yeah. I never saw him as the singing type more of the tough one that had a hard time showing his true feelings." Tomoyo said.
"I guess being around Miss Kinomoto softened him up a bit." I said. I looked up at Sakura and saw the blank sad look on her face.
"You miss him don't you Miss Kinomoto?" I asked.
She just nodded.
"Ok. Well Syaoran and I have to go home. I'll be back on when we get there." I said closing my laptop.
Syaoran and I got in a taxi and went home. We ate dinner and then went to bed.
Syaoran's POV
"Sakura" I said aloud lying on my bed.
"I could've sworn I heard her voice today. Maybe it's just my mind." I told myself.
"I can't stop thinking about her." I heard something outside my door but took no notice to it.
"Sakura why'd you have to do this to me. Your smile kept haunting me until it completely faded away and now I can't even seem to remember nor see it." I said thinking aloud.
"Sakura" I said one last time before I fell asleep.
No One's POV
Syaoran's oldest sister was listening outside his door. She had made a noise but Syaoran paid no attention.
"Perfect" She muttered writing down what Syaoran had said.
Meilin and her had been working together to make Syaoran happy but they couldn't figure it out till now
"Meilin here are the notes I have" She said as she walked over to Meilin in the sitting room.
"Her really misses her doesn't he?" Meilin asked.
"Yes." His oldest sister said.( Sorry don't know her name or any of his sisters names.)
"I have a plan but I'm going to need someone else's help while I'm gone. I going to need Tomoyo's help." Meilin said as she left.
The Next Day Syaoran's POV
I woke up and sat down to breakfast with Meilin. It was just her and I today.
"Syaoran." She said.
"Yes?" I asked.
"Syaoran I want to go to Japan! Today!" She said.
"What!?" I asked.
Get your stuff packed because I already have the tickets and were going to be there for a week!" She exclaimed.
A/N: That's it for now. Look out for the next chapter! Ja Ne! See Ya!
