A/N: omg... I'm actually updating!! lol ;D

and just so you know... this chapter is the result of an authoress who is very desperate to write something, listening to Eriol's Happy Song too much (and btw, that's how i got the random and twisted version of Eriol... you'll see), and a whole lot of sugar. So, um... ya.

Hope ya like!

Disclaimer:Okay I'm already running out of different ways to say the disclaimer... lol... but anyways, I don't own anything!!


Things You Should Never Do Concerning Your Crush

7. be too afraid to tell the other person that you love them… because then, your life just might turn into some messed up storyline.


Messed Up Storyline

Once upon a time, far, far away, there lived two ordinary middle school students, Sakura and Syaoran. They were the best friends you could ever find; they did homework together, went to each other's house on a regular basis, and they told each other absolutely everything… almost.

You see, there was one thing that both of them hid from the other. What's that? you ask. And here's the answer.

They were in love with one another.

You may think that since they were best friends, it should not be a problem. Or you may think that it is a problem. But it's not important what you think.

What is important is that they were both too afraid. Too scared. Too fearful of being rejected and losing their friendship. And so they never did confess.

Eventually, the two went their own ways, walking two separate paths. They never saw each other again.

And they lived unhappily ever after.

Just kidding.

When they got into high school, someone finally made the first move. Who? Eriol, of course. How does that work? you ask. Here's how.

One day, Eriol comes up to Sakura and says, "Sakura-san, if you don't find yourself a boyfriend by tomorrow, you'll have to go out with me."

Sakura was scared. Not that Eriol was a bad person… but he was just kind of…. weird… you know?

So she goes off to ask out the first person she that popped into her head. Syaoran. When she found him, she demanded that he go out with her due to a freaky Eriol.

Of course, he agreed.

The two became the happiest couple ever. Their relationship lasted all through high school, and all of college as well. And then, finally, the two got married.

And they lived happily ever after.

Except for one thing.

Yes, they were extremely happy to be with each other and all, but they still never confessed their feelings to one another. You see, they just assumed that they were together because of the weird freaky Eriol. Yup.

And so they lived kind of happily ever after. Or something like that.

But wait, there's more.

Then, on some other day after Sakura and Syaoran were married and all, a big green dinosaur monster thing popped out of nowhere and tried to eat Sakura. And as the thing picked her up and carried her away, Sakura, fearing that she may never see Syaoran again, finally decided to tell him that she loved him, really really loved him. And Syaoran, in turn, confessed about his feelings too, and he ran up to the monster thing and punched it hard in the face. (Bad thing to do to a real monster, by the way.)

Surprisingly, the monster fell over and started screaming and holding its face. And then it... took off its head.

The monster was Eriol in a costume.

And so, having confessed their feelings at last, Sakura and Syaoran lived happily ever after.


"…what just happened...?" Sakura asked in a puzzled manner with a very blank expression on her face.

"That's some messed up storyline," Syaoran commented, raising an eyebrow.

"Wasn't it wonderful?" Naoko exclaimed, "I wrote it just for you guys, too!!"

"…why?"

"Because this story is exactly what's going to happen to you two. I just know it." Naoko's glassed flashed as a mischievous expression spread across her face.

"Yeah, right," Syaoran snorted, "Like this would ever happen. You didn't even get our personalities right. I don't know about Sakura, but if I liked her, which I don't, by the way, I would have the guts to tell her, and not just wimp out like some coward."

"Y-yeah me too!" Sakura declared, trying to hide her confusion and uncertainty. I mean, she would tell him if she liked him… if she liked him… which she didn't… right?

"Hehe… whatever. Ja!" Naoko waved as she walked out of the classroom, leaving the two alone.

"That was so pointless," Syaoran grumbled, "She just completely wasted ten minutes of my life!"

Sakura sweatdropped. Syaoran could be pretty grumpy sometimes.

"Um… ya… you know, we should probably start heading home now." Sakura pointed out.

"Yeah."

And then, at that point in time, the two of them made eye contact. And all of a sudden, it wasn't just your regular two friends looking at each other.

There was something more.

As they stared into each other's eyes for that very brief moment, both of them realized something.

They loved the other person.

But...they never told one another. Why? They were too afraid. Too scared. Too fearful of being rejected and losing their friendship.

And so they never learned of each other's feelings.

But then one day, a boy name Eriol came up to Sakura…


A/N: Yay for Naoko!! hehe... I had to use her as an excuse for the randomness or my writing would've seemed WAY too pathetic... teehee!

Review, please! And hopefully I will update this again... soon... as in maybe a few days... or a week... or something like that... and I promise it'll not be totally random and it'll actually be good, kay? ;D
