Hey all you land lubbers!!! Summer is here, and the thing is.....I want to go back to school. Even though the day I typed this up was May 26, and the last day of my school year as a 9th grader.....I want to go back. Because this year, some of my close and sister like friends are leaving, and I've been crying about it all day. Here's a poem I wrote to the ones that are leaving....some of you who have friends that are important to you and are leaving....you should give this to them.....because I wrote this from the heart...but I still want my credit....

Words from the Star Wolf (A.K.A.-TheWolfofStars):

[b][I]Later [/b]

I stand here,
Watching you leave.
We had said later,
Not our good byes.
Because good bye means forever never again.
But I won't let that happen.
Because you are like one of my sisters,
Though not by blood,
But by loving friendship.
I don't want to see you go,
But I can't do anything.
So I stand here,
Watching you leave,
With tears in my eyes.
Later.....never good bye [/I]

Disclaimer: Card Captors never belonged to me, but I would love it if they gave it to me for a 9th grade graduation gift or a 10th grade beginning gift....no? Oh well, my dreams are splattered....but the story line does belong to me..... love you CLAMP!!!

Last Chapter:

"Well, you already know that I'm a pro boarder, my family comes from a background of wealthy, famous people, and all that blah blah stuff that is stupid. And of course the media is after my, after I 'disappeared' from the public without a trace. What no-one except certain people know is that one reason we moved here is because of me."

"To get away from the media and stalking fans?"

Sakura and Tomoyo laughed a little, but Sakura continued.

"No, that's just the bonus to the major plan. The real reason is because...ever since I was born.....I've been engaged...."

"....since childhood to a boy. My parents were best friends with his parents, and he has a twin brother that is getting married to my mom's other best friend, who is also my aunt, who has a daughter my age. My aunt and mother-in-law-to-be are coming over later tonight at about 5, want to stay till then?"

Tomoyo face was shocked ( o ). She then started,

"You have a fiancée? Are you kidding me Sakura-chan? I have one as well! And I have an aunt and a mother-law-to-be too!! Do you know how weird this sounds......."

Sakura nodded, and answered

"Our situations are almost exactly identical...that really is freaky..."

"Hey....is your mother-in-law-to-be a pretty Chinese women by the name of Yelan....?"

(A.N.: If you haven't found out by now...you truly are dense...denser than me...and that is sad.)

Sakura paled

"Yes.....does your 'aunt' go by the name of Nadeshiko?"

Tomoyo paled in turn, a small audible gasp was heard. She nodded. Sakura went wide-eyed (0.0)

"Do you think it's safe to say that....all those coincidences...aren't just coincidences.... and we really happen to be cousins, both engaged to the twin son's of our mother's other best friend, and that we are getting married next summer.....?"

All Tomoyo could do was nod, her voice was squeaky when she said

"Yep.....I should say very safe to say....don't you think....cousin-to-be-sister- in-law-but-for-no-my-best-friend?"

"Boy, Tomoyo-chan, that's a rather long title....How bout just best friends, ok?"

Sakura had a pinky up, and Tomoyo gave her pinky, and they both giggled at their childish, but ever lasting promise. The puppy slowly woke up (German shepherd puppies are so cute!! cuddles puppy ). Sakura picked him up and cuddled him to her chest, which he fell back asleep to, due to her warmth and heart beat.

(A.N: Scientific fact of the day: When a puppy is young, and are just separated from the mothers, they mostly get scared because they won't sleep to their mothers warmth or heartbeat, and they'll miss her a lot. So when you put them to bed, it's best that you get an alarm clock that ticks or use your own heart to subdue them to sleep, making them think that it's their mother beside them, and calms them down. They'll feel like they have their mother's protection. I seriously knew that one!!! Lmao )

Sakura grinned at her puppy. She got the remote to her radio, and clicked on, starting up t.A.T.u. She asked

"What should I name this cute little boy? I mean...my fiancée was sweet enough to send him to me. I should give him a name."

Tomoyo thought aloud

"How about...Kerobrous? Or Kero-chan for short?"

Sakura smiled softly and nodded.

"Kerobrous it is. I wonder if your fiancée got you a puppy too?"

Tomoyo smiled a little.

"He always gives me a gift at least every 2-4 monthes. And I always give him one back. I bet that's the way with you two, ne?"

Sakura nodded. Then she remembered.

"Hey Tomoyo-chan. I was wondering, this morning you said something about that bench I was sitting on...."

Tomoyo caught on instantly.

"Oh, that's nothing really. That's just the bench that the most popular kids in that stupid prep school can only sit on and such. Oh, Sakura- chan....I was wondering..."

"Yes?"

"Could I make you outfits? For school, skating, and stuff?"

Sakura fell off her bed ( O.O ). She then got back up, rubbing her head, the puppy still miraculously asleep in her arms, and sat back down. She asked.

"Why would you wanna make me clothes? I mean..."

Tomoyo puled up a puppy pout and the puppy eyes.

"Pleassssseee! I promise it won't be horrible! It's only the best for you. I just never had a best friend that was a girl, who happened to be my cousin, and future sister. I really need someone to model my clothes for me!"

Sakura couldn't ignore the look. [b]ALL[/b] the girls in the family had the look, she pulled it off herself once or twice. Now, it came back to haunt her.....She sighed with defeat.

"Ok, but only because you did the face. I never knew the infamous face of the women of our family would turn on me! I was like a master to it! But wait....why me? Why not use yourself?"

Tomoyo beamed, her eyes going starry eyed.

"Because your so KAWAII!!! And you wonder why the media are after you with fans and that the guys excepted you quicker than others. Though they mainly recruited you for your killer skills, they also did because of your killer cuteness too. And I already sport my mom's and my own designs. I just want another girl to share the experience with!"

Sakura couldn't argue with that, so again she sighed in defeat. (a lot of sighing gong on)

"Sakura-chan, when you hit that prep today for touching you...why hadn't you done that to the guys? They had picked us up earlier?"

"They were playing around, and besides, they aren't preps! I look to them as....friends. Nothing more. Do they know about you being engaged?"

"Yeah. I told them a couple months after I met them. At first, they were a little hurt, but then they started protecting me from other boys that tried getting close, especially after my...you know...um....start of womanhood... I wear my baggy clothes to hide my true body from everyone. And for the style and comfort of course!"

(A.N.: Koff I wonder who that sounds like...hmmm...ME!!! There dad! That's part of my answer of why I wear baggy guy clothes. I don't feel very comfortable with guys staring at my chest and ass all the time. I mean, who would!!! I mean, even some of my guy friends do it to me, and then in the end they make cracks, and then I kick there asses, and they do it some more....yep.....I sure know how to pick friends....perverts...)

Sakura could relate. That's one thing her brother agrees with her wearing guy clothes. He never wants anyone to have even a look at his little sister. She then decided it was time to take off the hoodie, because it was freaking hot in her room all of a sudden! Tomoyo did aswell, and she had been wearing a white baggy t-shirt. Tomoyo asked

"So, since we're here, I'm going to take measurements!"

Sakura had no clue, but some how she was standing with her arms out, Kero-chan was laying on the bed peacefully, and out of nowhere, Tomoyo had gotten a measuring tape, pad of paper, and a pencil. She thought as she stood there

'This is going to take awhile...'

Tomoyo turned up the volume of the stereo as she worked...
