Oh and I apologize if my chapters are a little too short for some people's taste...I just find it hard to write such long fics...since I don't really have the time in my hands to write nowadays. Plus I have a provincial wide Literacy test coming up in two weeks. But writing fics is a great help to prepare me for it...hehe ^_~ Just wish me luck... And hopefully I'll pass.
Okies...well on with the fic! Enjoy!~

LAKE OF DREAMS
Chapter 11: Discoveries (Part Two) Syaoran's POV
By:Eternal Serenity
She was here, coming closer to me. I could feel it.
I felt her aura although it was somewhat weakened, but I could also sense her confusion as to why I was here so early in the morning. But I couldn't let her come close to me. I just couldn't. If I did, I would cause her hurt and pain just like those numerous times...or should I say centuries ago.
I stared at the lake motionless, feeling very furious and angry from what I had discovered hours ago. I had a flashback with such a strong impact on me that I had finally figured out why we were having these connections.
*FLASHBACK*
She was there...at the docks of the lake with her hand protectively on her belly that held our unborn child. She was leaving...leaving to go back to her country after the war just happened... I stole a glance at her but suddenly she froze and slowly turned around to gaze at me in worry.
I took a few steps closer to where she was standing....but she shook her head and backed away from me with tears in her emerald eyes. I know that I shouldn't have come here today, but I just couldn't let her leave me...and our child. I just loved her too much.
But something else was wrong...I could tell from the fright her eyes suddenly held. She was scared of something...but I could also see the love and sadness her eyes wore. I felt my heart break from what I was seeing. This was too much...I just had to feel her in my arms one more time and to feel her love...
But then suddenly.....the vision disapparead and was replaced by something horrible...
*END OF FLASHBACK*
I felt myself shaking uncontrollably from the memory of what I had seen after that, and tears slowly fell from my eyes. But I just stood there and stared at the lake as I heard a slight noise of footsteps approaching me.
She was here.
Kami-sama my heart broke to feel her...to feel her so close to me yet...in those times we were always together, something always broke us apart.
I stared at her from the corner of my weary amber orbs as my heart broke from the sight of her. God I loved her so much...it tore me apart.
But I couldn't get close to her again...I would end up hurting her...and she deserved more than that. Yet I still loved her....loved her to an intensity I never thought possible. A love that can never be broken.
"Syaoran..." I heard her say weakly, and I felt my heart flinch. This was too much for me. But I kept my guard up and just continued to stare at the lake.
I know that she noticed the obvious sadness my face wore, and felt how worried she was of me. She still hasn't changed all those years ago. She was always the same, and those were one of the things I have always loved about her. So caring of others yet so gentle and loving at the same time. But words could not express how much I love this woman.
She looked at me with uncertainty and the image brought back harsh memories. I shook my head slightly, then my hand balled into fists out of anger. Why did fate have to be so cruel?
"S-Syaoran...what w-what are you doing here?" I heard her ask me shaking slightly with a worried expression. Then she started to walk closer to where I was standing but I stopped her abruptly.
"Don't come any closer...Sakura." I said suddenly in a tone of ice as my face gave away nothing but pure anguish and anger.
She stared at me in confusion and looked down suddenly. I continued to gaze at her from the corner of my eyes and felt my heart beat faster than usual. I couldn't do this to her...yet at the same time I had this sudden urge in the pit of my stomach to fill that gap between us and hold her in my arms. But it took a whole lot of my willpower not to do so, and I balled my fists angrily out of frustration.
I heard her sigh after a few minutes of unbearable silence between us. Then she looked up at me pleadingly as she asked the question once more.
"Syaoran...please...tell me...what's the matter?" I heard her ask me once more hoping that I would eventually tell her...but I just couldn't. It would break her apart.
Then I suddenly noticed how weak and tired she looked. I gazed at her worriedly. She shook her head and tried again.
"Syaoran...I--" But it was already too late. Everything went in slow motion as she slowly fainted out of exhaustion and I quickly ran to her side to catch her in my arms. I looked down at her worriedly, while unbidden tears fell slowly from my eyes.
**********
A/N: Yes....I know another short chapter. But as you can tell this was a continuation to the previous chapter, with a better insight on how Syaoran felt. So hopefully you enjoyed this.
The next chapter will give you more information on the dreams and it will provide better understanding on how Syaoran and Sakura are connected. But if you're smart enough you would have caught on the explanation by now...since I think I've given you guys enough hints. *wink*wink* hehe...but don't worry I'll provide you guys with a better explanation on the next chapter, and I promise it will be longer. So until then I'll catch up with ya later alrite? Oh and as I mentioned to some of you...I was working on the new chapter for "Stuck" but I stopped working on it for the meantime and wrote this instead. But hopefully I'll get it done by tomorrow or something.
