FF VII: Interrupted by Fireworks

Author's Note: This takes place approximately when Sakura and Syaoran are 14. I didn't add much of the other characters in there. I think only Tomoyo and Kero-chan really make a decent appearance. But you know how she is so persuasive with the S+S relationship. ^_^. Oh and pov means point of view, and if you can't tell all the lyrics are contain within " " and have no period at the end (to distinguish between speech). Please email me back any C+C, I can use it! I haven't gotten any so far! My email is holly_yih@hotmail.com so email me! This is sooooo WAFF!!!! ^_^

DISCLAIMER: I don't own these characters. Clamp does. And I have made no other "new" characters. This is purely a Clamp "original." (no outside addies.)

Part 1: A Reluctant Departure

(pov: Li Syaoran)

"Never want to leave"

I'm sorry, Sakura.

"Never want to say what you mean to me"

I love you, Sakura.

"Frightened to believe
You're the best thing about me"
(above "---" from, The Best Thing)

I didn't have the guts to tell Sakura I was leaving for Hong Kong. So I told Tomoyo I was going. I also hinted to her that I didn't what Sakura to know I was going until I was gone. I could see disapproval written all over Tomoyo's face. I just couldn't face Sakura's sad face. I'd breakdown. I'd confess everything. I'm too young to be feeling this way. And it's not fair to Sakura. I know she would wait and ponder. She's that kind of person. It's just no fair for her.

I hope you understand, Sakura. I never wanted to hurt you in anyway.

(pov: Kinomoto Sakura)

"He what?" I whispered softly as tears poured down my face.

Tomoyo tried to smile, comfortingly, "He told me not to tell you he was going back to Hong Kong. Until he was gone. He thought it was best. And he convinced me."

I turned away from Tomoyo. I was shocked. Did I mean so little to Syaoran? I stared out my window. How could he do this? I didn't even get the chance to say good-bye. Was that too much? And why does it hurt so much?

Tomoyo added, "He didn't want to hurt you."

How does he know what will hurt me? Besides he's just hurt me so much more. I can't believe it. He just left like that. I can't believe he didn't at least give me the chance to say good-bye. I'll probably never see him again. And why does it hurt so much? He was really friendly with me. Not like Tomoyo. The last tear rolled off my face. But I cared that much about him.

"I'm going to take these broken wings
And learn to fly"

Because Syaoran-kun, you broke my heart.

"And learn to fly away
And learn to fly away"
(above "---" from, Gunning Down Romance)

Because Syaoran-kun, I don't think I can take another broken heart. At least not at this time. It will take time to mend, if I ever do mend, that is.

The Songs:

"The Best Thing" from Affirmation (Savage Garden)

"Gunning Down Romance" from Affirmation (Savage Garden)
