Chapter 18: Back to the place where he broke her heart
"I still can't believe you told Sakura that I was gay." Ryu murmured to Meilin the day after the party. They were walking back from school, "And it isn't even true!"
"I know, I know…" Meilin apologized, looking down at the ground, "And once again, I am very sorry."
"Hey guys!" Sakura and Tomoyo yelled from all the way down the road, waving voilently.
"Hey!" Meilin screamed back. Ryu just waved a little.
"Have you seen Syaoran and Eriol today?" Tomoyo asked as soon as she reached the couple.
"No, have you?" Meilin asked back.
"No…I wonder where they are…" Sakura mumbled.
"I bet they're planning on something really horrible while we're just worrying about them." Tomoyo said angrily.
"Eh," Ryu shrugged. Then quickly got cold stares from Sakura and Tomoyo.
"WHAT!" Ryu yelled, "I'M NOT THE ONE GOING OUT WITH THEM!"
"Oh well. Guess we'll just have to have some fun without them…" Meilin replied mysteriously.
"…Fun?" Ryu asked, sounding almost scared.
30 min later
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Sakura screamed at the top of her lungs.
Sakura and her friends are at the new amusement park built in the city's center. There were all kinds of rides on there. Roller coasters, haunted houses…you name it! Right now everyone is on the huge black metal roller coaster. And Sakura is screaming like hell. But at least they're having a good time, right?
'This is so not what I had in mind when Meilin said we were gonna have fun,' Ryu thought hopelessly as he watched the auburn-haired cousin of his scream her ass off.
"Phew, glad that was over," Meilin let out a deep breath as they got of the roller coaster. Sakura was still shivering and Tomoyo was just hyper for no reason.
"Let's go home now, I'm beat," Tomoyo suggested.
"Good idea," Ryu quickly replied.
"Already? We've only been here for like…" Meilin took a glance at her watch, "20 minutes. But on the other hand, I don't think Sakura can handle anymore of this after the Haunted House and the Roller Coaster."
Tomoyo and Ryu nodded in agreement.
"ARE YOU CALLING ME WEAK?" Sakura asked challengingly.
"Of course not!" Everyone said in a union.
"Then why did you say that?" Sakura pointed out.
"Look, we just don't think you can handle this anymore."
"Oh yeah! I can be tough!" Sakura yelled rolling her sleeves up, "Bring the rides on!"
"Sakura you really don't have to prove anything," Tomoyo quickly replied.
"OH I WILL!" Sakura shouted, dragging everyone to the pirates' ship.
Three hours later
"Ok, I really don't think I can take any of this anymore." Sakura used her last bits of strength to say those words.
"Yeah, me neither," Tomoyo mumbled.
"How come I'm not so tired?" Meilin asked.
"That's because you fell asleep on most of the rides!" Ryu exclaimed. He wasn't tired at all for some odd reason.
"WELL IT ISN'T MY FAULT THE RIDES ARE SO FREAKIN' BORING!" Meilin barked back, "NEXT TIME WE COME, LET'S GO ON SOME REAL RIDES!"
"Well if you call those rides 'NOT REAL', then we should not bring those two with us next time."
"Hm… That's actually a very good idea." Meilin said thoughtfully.
"Now all we have to worry about is getting them back inside the car."
"Um…that might be a problem…" Meilin murmured.
"Come on you two! Get in the damned car!" Ryu pushed the girls into the back seats and buckled up their seatbelts for them.
"Geez, next time Sakura tries to prove something, let's make sure we're not there." Meilin joked.
"I know that's a joke, but I really think we should do that," Ryu replied with a serious look on his face.
"Me too."
Next day
"AAHHHHHHH!" the familiar scream was heard from the house of Kinomoto, "I'M LATE!"
10 minutes later
"Phew, at least I'm not late!" Sakura panted, out of breath from all the running she had done.
"Hey Sakura, what took you so long?" Syaoran asked as soon as he saw her.
"I slept in..." Sakura mumbled. Everyone around the couple sweat dropped.
"Oh, okay." Syaoran said awkwardly.
"Bye Syaoran!" Sakura yelled before heading for her homeroom, "If I don't go now I'll be late!"
"Kay!" Syaoran waved, "See you in the cafeteria at lunch break!"
"Sure!"
Cafeteria
"Sakura," Syaoran began.
"Yes Syaoran?" Sakura replied.
"Are you free after school?" Syaoran asked, "I mean, I was wondering if you can come to Penguin Park with me after school."
Sakura's POV
PENGUIN PARK. Why would he want to go there again? I haven't been there ever since he said those cruel words to me. What does he wand? I hate that place! It almost ruined my whole life! Unless...He wants to break up with me...
"W-why?" I asked back fearfully, I can hear my voice trembling.
"You know, we can hang out." Syaoran answered casually.
"O-okay...sure," I mumbled quietly. If it's going to happen, then I can't do anything to stop it. No matter how much I...love him.
Normal POV
For the entire afternoon, Sakura stayed in a mode where you can't think of anything. Everything is just blank. Sakura jotted notes down without even knowing. She hoped for the best.
Penguin Park
Sakura and Syaoran walked quietly, without a word.
"So?" Sakura asked as they walked under the cherry blossoms.
"Sakura," Syaoran asked uneasily after a long, long pause, "What do you think of me?"
"What I think of you?" Sakura repeated, looking over at Syaoran, "Well I defiantly think you are a great person. And..."
"And what?"
"...is very nice and mannered. And very-" but Sakura was cut off.
"I love you Sakura." Syaoran pulled her close and looked deep into her eyes.
Amber meets emerald.
Sakura's POV
"I love you Sakura."
I lifted my head up to meet his flaming amber eyes. I heart pounded violently and yet I felt so...right. Syaoran did not look away, and neither did I. Tears uncontrollably formed in my eyes. He loved me...he loved me...he loved me...
"Syaoran!" I found myself I Syaoran's arms; I leaned my head on his chest and cried. Those were tears of happiness.
Normal POV
"Syaoran," Sakura blurted out after she dried her tears, "I love you too."
Syaoran looked at Sakura in surprise. His eyes looked so shocked and overwhelmed. But the space between them closed slowly, and they both closed their eyes. And finally, their lips met.
"Sakura, look!" Syaoran pointed after the kiss. Sakura looked up at the place he pointed at.
The never blooming cherry blossom had finally bloomed.
And it's not just any cherry blossom, it was pinker and more pure than any other cherry blossom.
It had beauty, gentleness, and courage.
The world watched as the pink petals of the cherry blossom fell onto the ground.
There was not doubt on what it was.
It was a Sakura.
