Author's notes: Hey all! I'm back with another installment of my fanfic. So, we finally have some Sakura+Yue action going on! Yeah! (Took me long enough.) Well time to see the reaction of Sakura and we'll see some more characters coming in so I hope you enjoy! ^_^

~Chapter Four~

Sakura stood, frozen at the door. She was so shocked. `Did that really happen?' She thought, still clinging to the popcorn bowl.

Coming around the corner were Tomoyo and Meling. They walked right up to they're apartment door, where they saw Sakura, yet again, standing at the door, gaping. "What's wrong this time?" Meling huffed.

"He…he…he kissed me." Sakura stuttered.

"What!?" Both of them screeched with delight. Tomoyo pushed Sakura inside the apartment.

"Who?" She asked, closing the door. "Yue?"

Sakura gulped and nodded.

"And?" Meling said curiously.

"I don't know. He just left back to his apartment." Sakura explained.

"So, do you like him?" Tomoyo wondered.

"I'm not sure if I do or not. I guess I do but something is telling me not to." Sakura told them.

"Don't tell us then tell him." They both sighed.

"But…but…" Sakura stammered as Tomoyo and Meling pushed her to the door. As the closed the door they heard Nakuru calling them.

She rounded the corner and stopped right in front of them. "I have someone to show you guys." Nakuru grinned.

"Is it who you were out with tonight?" Sakura asked.

"Yup!" She giggled. "Come on guys!" She called behind her.

(AN: You ready for this? It might take some adjusting to! ^_^) Two young men came over to them from the other hall. The first to come was very energetic looking. She had golden blond hair and blue beady eyes. He wore a pair of baggy blue jeans and a white tee shirt. The second was very studious looking. He had coal black hair and deep purple eyes. He wore a white shirt with a black blazer with matching pants. He also wore a pair of silver rimmed glasses.

"Kero!? Suppi!?" Sakura gasped.

"Who?" Tomoyo and Meling asked in confusion.

"Hey kid." The blond one smiled. Sakura ran over to him and hugged him. "Hi Kero!" She smiled back.

"Hey don't forget me!" The other one huffed.

"I wouldn't forget you Suppi!" Sakura laughed and hugged him as well.

"Arg! For the last time don't call me Suppi! It's Spinal Sun!" He made a fake frown.

"Well Kero lets me call him Kero when his real name is Cerobearous!' Sakura pointed out.

"Sakura! What did I tell you about that!" Kero sighed angrily.

"Well that's because Kero hates his real name!" Spinal Sun laughed.

"Uh Sakura, do you want to clue us in on this?" Meling asked as she starred at the four of them.

"Oh! Tomoyo, Meling, these are some more of my friends form high school. This is Cerobearous, but don't call him that, call him Kero; and this is Spinal Sun." Sakura introduced them.

"CoughSuppicough!" Kero sputtered.

"Kero!" Spinal Sun cried.

"Eek!" Kero shouted as he was being chased by Spinal Sun. "Help me!"

The others all laughed at them. "What's all the noise out here?" Eriol asked as he came out with Syaoran and Yue.

"Yue?" Kero and Spinal Sun asked.

"What!? All three of you are here now!?" Yue choked.

"Huh?" Eriol blinked.

"Well, Cerobearous is my brother and Spinal Sun and Nakuru are my step sister and step brother." Yue explained. (AN: Well it's kinda true…)

"Gesh you have a big family." Syaoran sighed.

"So you guys all live here?" Kero asked.

"Yup." Tomoyo replied.

"Now that's weird." Spinal Sun stated.

"Why?" Sakura asked.

"Because the two of us are renting the apartment next to the girl's apartment." He explained.

"That is weird." Meling agreed.

"Well we should go get our stuff." Kero said pointing behind him.

"Yue? Could you help us?" Spinal Sun asked.

"Uh…I guess." Yue agreed.

"I'll go too!" Sakura eagerly volunteered.

The four of them reached the parking garage and they each took a couple suitcases. As they walked back Sakura lagged behind and held Yue back with her. "Yue, I need to talk to you." She said.

"I figured." Yue replied.

"Now, I do like you a lot, it's just that I'm scared. I've been hurt before when it came to love and I don't think my heart could take it if that happened again." She told him. "I just need time." She sighed.

Yue stopped and turned around to face her. He starred down at her. "I'm sorry Sakura, I shouldn't have kissed you. It put you in a bad predicament. It's fine that you're scared. I actually know how you fell when it comes to those feelings." He apologized. "Don't worry. I'm not offended."

"Really?" Sakura looked up at him.

Yue nodded. "How about we start over again by just being good friends?" Yue suggested.

"Ya! Thanks!" Sakura smiled widely. "Let's go catch up with Kero and Suppi."

"I heard that!" Spinal Sun called back at them.

"I can't believe those two are related to you!" Sakura laughed to Yue.

"The funny thing is neither can I!"

***

Autumn and winter passed and spring came around. Tomoyo can from the kitchen to the living room in their apartment with a tray with three hot cocoas. She sat down across from Meling and Sakura at the table. Tomoyo handed out the two other hot cocoas to them and took a sip from her own. "I take it Nakuru is out with Kero and Spinal Sun." She guessed.

"Bingo." Sakura replied.

Meling gave out a heavy sigh. "What's wrong?" Sakura asked.

"Well it just came to me that this is the same exact day that we left Tokyo to come here." Meling explained.

"She's right." Tomoyo agreed.

"But don't worry! We're a lot better off now then we were back there!" Sakura pointed out. "We can trust the guys more now then we ever did and we're more independent too!"

"Sakura right! We're able to take care of ourselves!" Tomoyo and Meling cried as all three of them stood up in triumph.

Syaoran popped his head through the door. "Um, girls, can we borrow your key to our apartment. We locked ourselves out." He asked.

The three girls fell back to the ground and sweat dropped. "Though we can't say the same for the guys." Sakura giggled. All three girls cracked up.

"What's so funny?" Syaoran wondered.

"Oh nothing." Meling said innocently as she handed Syaoran their key.

***

"So are you three ready?" Nakuru asked Sakura, Tomoyo and Meling.

"Yup!" Sakura replied. She opened the apartment and greeted Nakuru, Kero and Spinal Sun. They were all going to the dance at the college.

Sakura wore a slim, pale pink gown with glitter speckled all over it. She work white high-heeled shoes and wore white gloves the reached up to her shoulders. Tomoyo was dressed in a blue gown that flared out at the bottom. Around her waist was a silver sash she too wore white gloves but hers only went up to her wrists. Meling wore a champagne gown that clinged to her body and accented the curves in her body. It was a sleeveless top. Around her neck was a silver necklace with a light blue stone charm. Nakuru wore a burgundy dress that went down to her knees. At the waist of the dress there was a black stripe. Kero and Spinal Sun both wore Tuxes. Kero's was white and Spinal Sun's was black.

Nakuru walked up to the door of the guy's apartment and knocked on the door. "We're ready." She called.

"Okay!" Eriol said from inside. As the door began to open Tomoyo, Meling and Sakura dodged behind Nakuru and hid from Eriol, Syaoran and Yue. They were all in tuxes. (AN: holds in laughter at the sight of Yue in a tux!)

"Where are they?" Syaoran asked as they walked out of their apartment.

"In a single file behind me." Nakuru rolled her eyes.

"Tomoyo! You go out first!" Sakura pushed Tomoyo out from behind Nakuru and right into Eriol, who caught her.

"Sakura!" Tomoyo fumed. She looked up at Eriol who was frozen, starring at her. "Eriol…Are you okay?" She asked and waved her hand in front of his face. He didn't move.

"I've got an idea!" Sakura shouted. "Tomoyo!" She cried. Eriol snapped out of it.

"What is it Eriol?" Tomoyo asked.

"You look beautiful." Eriol replied slowly.

Tomoyo blushed. "Thanks Eriol." She smiled.

"Your turn Meling!" Sakura giggled and pushed Meling out as well. She stumbled next to Syaoran.

"Um…H…h…hi…Syaoran." Meling giggled nervously.

"That dress looks, er, um," Syaoran stuttered. `Ack! I forgot what I wanted to say!' He thought. `Oh ya!' He remembered. "Great!" He smiled.

"Thank-you Syaoran." She blushed.

"Come on Sakura!" Nakuru rolled her eyes.

"No you can't make me come out!" Sakura cried.

"You want a bet!?" Kero and Spinal Sun laughed as they marched over to Sakura and pushed out into the open.

"Kero! Suppi! Stop!" Sakura protested, but it was too late, they could all see her.

Numerous whistles were heard from all five guys. Eriol and Syaoran both got jabbed in the ribs for theirs. (^_^)

"We better get going!" Nakuru suggested. The others nodded and they all headed to the cars.

***

At the dance Tomoyo and Meling had managed to drag Eriol and Syaoran out on to the dance floor, while Nakuru, Kero and Spinal Sun were sitting, drinking punch and joking about. Sakura and Yue sat next to each other and were talking about whatever came to mind. The two of them had become very good friends. The others were sure there was something more between them no matter how much they tried to convince them.

A waltz started up. (AN: A waltz? You asking? Oh well it fits the scene!) Sakura suddenly stood up. She faced Yue. "Yue why don't we dance?" She suggested.

"Um…" Yue muttered. "I don't know how to dance." Yue explained.

"Don't know how to dance!?" Sakura laughed. "Come on, I'll teach you!" She suggested, then pulled him on to the dance floor. "First you bow and I curtsy." She giggled. Yue bowed stiffly while Sakura gracefully curtsied. They then faced each other again. "Now you hold my left hand with you right hand up here." Sakura said as he put her hand in the air next to her head. Yue took it. Sakura then put her right hand in the air near her waist. "Now you hold my right hand with your left." She explained. "Now we step, together." Sakura said stepping back and taking Yue with her. "Good! Again, step together." This time they went in Yue's direction.

"Look Syaoran!" Meling laughed looking over Syaoran's shoulder and pointing at Sakura and Yue. Syaoran stopped dancing and turned around.

Syaoran stifled a laugh as he looked on at the two of them. Yue looked so awkward dancing. Eriol and Tomoyo also stopped next to Syaoran and Meling and starred at Sakura and Yue. "Sakura is teaching Yue to dance?" Tomoyo questioned. "Where's my camera when I need it? This is so a Kodak moment!"

Yue had begun to get a handle on the dance and they slowly, but surely waltz across the dance floor. "You're doing great Yue!" Sakura complimented.

"Uh…thanks." Yue made a fake smile.

The music eventually stopped and another song came on. Sakura and Yue stopped dancing. "Yue? Can you come with me?" Sakura asked quietly.

"Of course." Yue agreed. Sakura led him outside to a small, but beautiful garden. "What is is Sakura?" Yue asked.

"Well, I have something to confess." Sakura gulp. "Back when you kissed me that first time I was scared. I was still a little shaky from my last relationship with Syaoran. I was afraid I'd be hurt again and I didn't want that."

"Sakura, I would never hurt you!" Yue assured her.

"I know that now! After that I was glad we were able to be friends!" Sakura smiled up at him even if she had tears in her eyes. "But know I want more. I don't want to be just friends now, I want to, to, to…" Sakura voice trailed off. "Well you know, I want to be in love, and I already am, with you. And I'm hoping that you still feel the same way you did before about me." She dropped her head.

Yue cupped her chin in his hand and lifted her face up so she was looking at him. "Sakura I don't feel the same." He started. "I only feel more love for you." He leaned down and kissed Sakura, first on the forehead, then on the lips. When they broke the kiss, Sakura was still crying. "Sakura why are you crying?" He asked. "Are you sad?"

"No! No, I'm not sad, it's just that I'm so happy!" Sakura smiled widely.

"Good. I'm glad too." Yue smiled back.

They both walked back into the dance room, hand in hand.
