Sung From The Heart
Chapter 12: First Signs Of Love
"I'm here to find�"
"My bride," ended Clow Reed's descendant.
( hehehehe� A complete let down ^^)
Sakura felt a warm shudder go through her. Shivering from the feeling, she gave Kero the cookies and made him go back to her room.
"So, why are you here to find your bride?" asked Sakura.
"My mother had a vision that I'd meet her here in my stay in Japan." He replied.
"Oh�"
"We'd better get started on our project." Said Syaoran, heading towards the chest.
Then Sakura grabbed the pink diary, one that was very like hers, and unlocked it.
Watashi no nisshi,
It's been 6 years and Syaoran hasn't come back. I've been alone for so long I feel like I should let our promise go. But no, I will always wait for him. Today Tomoyo brought me to a music company, made me sing in front of the boss and I was given a contract for me to become a singer. I don't know if I should� All my songs are based on my feelings for Syaoran. Does he still think of me? I wish I knew.
After reading that entry, she sniffed.
"I wonder why he was that cruel to never come back to her�" she said. Then she started to read again.
Watashi no nisshi,
Me and Syaoran met again. He was with another girl. (then there was a teardrop on the page) How could he? Had he forgotten everything we had went through? I felt angry, was cruel and sang a song to hurt him. I hated him for leaving me waiting for all these years. Angry that he had forgotten me and gone after another girl. Her name was Sally. I felt weird when I first saw her. She looked like me. But after I sang the song, I felt ashamed. I went to see him on the beach but found he was asleep. Love trickled back into me. How could he make be so happy and sad at the same time? I sang him a song. Him alone. For it was the truth.
(then small scribbles were there showing lyrics to a song)
Sakura, started to hum a melody that seemed to fit the song. She didn't know how she had thought of it. But it had just entered her mind. Then she tried some of the song.
I haven't slept at all in days
It's been so long since we talked
And I have been here many times
I just don't know what I'm doing wrong
What can I do to make you love me
What can I do to make you care
What can I say to make you feel this
What can I do to get you there
There only so much I can take
And I just gotta let it go
And who's to know I might feel better, yeah
If I don't try and I don't hope
A strange voice sounded in Sakura, softly forcing her to continue. It seemed like she was a different person, but still her. Only, Syaoran noticed, older.
What can I do to make you love me
What can I do to make you care
What can I say to make you feel this
What can I do to get you there
No more waiting, no aching�
No fighting, no more trying�
Maybe there's nothing more to say
And in a funny way, I'm calm
Cause the power is not mine
And I just gonna let it fly
What can I do to make you love me
What can I do to make you care
What can I say to make you feel this
What can I do to get you there
For some reason, Syaoran knew this tune. He had heard it somewhere. Somewhere long ago, like in a dream. As she ended, a shudder went through him.
"Did you feel as if that song was familiar?" Sakura whispered, a scared look on her face.
"Yeah," he replied, just as softly.

(A.N: Sorry, but I'm so lazy that I can't put more.)
Few weeks later� (They had already finished and handed in that assignment.)
"Sakura-chan!"
As Tomoyo came running up to Sakura, Sakura noted the ecstatic look on her face. She had been sick for a while but was recovering. So not being at school, she hadn't heard anything of the assignments. Especially the one Tomoyo was going nuts about.
As she motioned Tomoyo to a chair in her room, she was amused to see Kero, who was staring at the get-well presents on her table. One of them was a box of chocolates from Yukito but there was pudding too. And this of course attracted Kero like a metal to a magnet. But knowing it was Sakura's get-well present; he had held himself back but kept drooling and going into a daze.
"Sakura, Sensei said we were going on a field trip. We're going in groups of four so I said that Li-kun and Eriol-kun could join us," said Tomoyo hurriedly before she burst.
Then murmuring to herself, she said, "Now I can film kawaii Sakura-chan in her kawaii clothes, hohohoho."
"Anyway, we're going to the beach and we got our own bungalow. We get to stay for a week, and we can go hire out volleyball equipment. But we have dinner at the local hotel cause they own the bungalows. I got Sensei to give me a slip," she continued as Sakura nodded her head.
"Thanks Tomoyo," Sakura said in a croaky voice.
Hope you can come Sakura-chan!" as Tomoyo exited and left her to get some sleep.
As Sakura drifted off to sleep, a picture of an amber-eyed boy floats into her thoughts. But being too sleepy and still sick she left it alone instead of pushing it away.
Hop on kid, I'm goin to Chapter 13
