Read and Review!

"Okay ask me this next!" Sakura Kinomoto instructed as she brushed her auburn hair behind her ear while waited for the next question. Sakura Kinomoto was an 18 year old with emerald green eyes and short auburn hair. She was trying to get into the Tokyo University this semester with her best friend Tomoyo.

"What is a synonym for smart in English?" Tomoyo Daidouji asked. She also wanted to get into Tokyo University; she studied with Sakura day and night for the entrance exam. She had amethyst eyes along with raven colored hair. She had been dating Hiiragizawa Eriol for about almost 1 and half years and always wanted Sakura to go on double dates with her and Eriol, but sadly never could make Sakura ever go on a date ever since a year ago.

"Um, that would be brainy, clever, intelligent, gifted, and sharp!" Sakura answered promptly.

"Correct, I only asked for one, but that's okay," Tomoyo pointed out. They would do this for hours and sometimes even feel asleep of exhaustion. "Sakura-chan? Don't you think we should take a break from all this? You do know that studying too much can be a bad thing."

"Fine, I'm hungry anyways, do you want to get some ice cream and some take-out?" asked Sakura as she gathered all her things into a pile as Tomoyo did with hers too. Tomoyo and Sakura stood up from the table. It was in the beginning of the fall, and their test was in spring. There was two Tokyo University Entrance Exams every year, one was in March and the other was late August. Results would be shown the next week.

"Sure, I'll get the ice cream and you get the food," Tomoyo said as she grabbed her purple purse and headed to the door. The two shared an apartment together and were also best friends and cousins.

"Hai!" said Sakura as she reached for the phone. "Tomoyo-chan? What do you want?" Sakura asked as she began dialing.

"Well, it doesn't really matter!" Tomoyo shouted through the door. "Just don't get anything that's spicy!"

"Hai! You know I don't like spicy stuff either! Drink?" reminded Sakura.

"Sprite!" she said through the door.

Some place else…

"Look at you! You finally got into Tokyo University," Eriol said as he jabbed his spoon into his mint ice cream. He had azure eyes and hair, he wore glasses; he had also taken the entry exam for Tokyo University and had gotten in with Syaoran.

"Hai, so did you" Syaoran replied as his amber eyes looked at the results from his entry exam. He had gotten very good marks this time. Last time he had taken the test, he was unprepared and inexperienced; most students had to take the test twice because of its difficulty. He had messy chocolate brown that was brushed hastily and dark serious amber eyes which girls would swoon over.

"Finally, after all those years of studying and wasting your time and not getting a girlfriend—" Eriol went on.

"Shut up, I only failed once and that was when I was 18, and I'm not interested," Syaoran shot. "And anyways, you studied for years too, and you make it in the same year as me,"

"That's true, demo, I also have a girlfriend who is also studying for the entry exam in spring." Eriol grinned. "You don't! And now I can help them study too!"

"You know, I bet you would never make a girl fall in love with you," Haku finally said, he had light brown hair and brown eyes. He was friends with Eriol and Syaoran for a long time and was now attending another university in Tokyo. He stood besides them as they were looking at Syaoran and Eriol's test results.

"I could make a girl love me any time I want," shot back Syaoran, putting the entrance test results down and glaring at Haku. "It's just that I don't have time for those kinds of things."

"Syaoran, this is a different thing than lust, it's love. I mean it isn't that easy to make a girl fall in love with you," Eriol advised. "A girl in lust wants chocolate or clothes, a girl in love want pearls, diamonds."

Syaoran ignored Eriol and said to Haku, "fine, I accept that bet, but on what accounts can we make this more interesting?"

"Well, I was thinking just maybe that you give the Li-Corp position you would be holding if you don't make a girl fall in love with you…" Haku said. Syaoran was going to be one of the presidents, including Eriol of the Li-Corp after he graduated Toudai. (Tokyo University)

"And if I win?"

"Then you get the Li-Corp and you get 5 billion yen," answered Haku.

"Deal!" Syaoran said before Eriol could say anything to talk him out of it.

"Haku!" Eriol said sharply.

"I'll tell you later," Haku whispered to him, when he got the chance, and then he said to Syaoran, "and Eriol gets to choose the girl."

"Nani!" he said sharply as he looked at Syaoran and Haku. "I can't choose! I am not going to be apart of this!"

"Too bad, you have to!" Haku said. "What about your girlfriend's –what's your girlfriend's name? Tomoyo? - friend, didn't you say she doesn't have a boyfriend but is HOT?"

"You have a girlfriend," Eriol said. "And do you mean Sakura-chan? She is pretty"

"I still love Meilin!" Haku protested. "Yes, that's the girl I'm talking about!"

"Well, it doesn't hurt to say it once in a while! Also if you break up with Meilin-chan, Syaoran will like never talk to you, never get involved with relatives I always say unless you want to marry them." Eriol said. Meilin was Syaoran's cousin. "Well, she doesn't have a boyfriend," he said getting back on track, "demo, I doubt she would really would want Syaoran though,"

"That's the point!" smiled Haku.

"Look, I can make this Kinomoto Sakura fall in love with me!" announced Syaoran, "just introduce me to her!"

They all looked at Eriol hopefully. Eriol sighed and said, "Fine just leave me out of it and don't tell Sakura I set you guys up, I'm just introducing you to her!"

Haku smiled.

Eriol stood up for a second and said, "But who will decide that Sakura has fallen in love with Syaoran?"

"I will," Haku said, "I know how to tell if a girl is really in love."

"How?" asked Syaoran.

"The eyes," this time the reply came from Eriol.

"how long do I get?" Syaoran asked.

"as long as you need until you give up," Haku replied generously.

"Fine, works for me!" Syaoran said before he bounced back on the couch grinning. "But don't you have to be picking up a little somebody?"

"Yeah? In about an hour…" Eriol said slowly.

"Yeah, so get there early, I don't want you messing up me getting Sakura Kinomoto." Syaoran replied.

"Look, I'm still not that happy about doing this, but I won't mess up the date, I never do!" Eriol protested and left the room.

Sakura and Tomoyo…

"Tomoyo-chan? Don't you have a date with Eriol-kun tonight?' Sakura asked softly as she at her fried noodles. The strawberry flavored ice cream sat besides them slowly melted away as they started to scoop some from the bin.

"Hai, I can't wait, Eriol's going to take me to this really fancy restaurant, and told me to dress up," smiled Tomoyo. She had bumped into Eriol during a bad snow storm and ended up spending a night with him stuck in a cold abandoned house and ended up as a couple. "Are you sure you don't want to come?"

"Certain, I find no interest in men." Sakura said dully.

"But Sakura, you have to let the past go!" Tomoyo protested.

"I won't, I won't EVER forgive him for what he did!" Sakura said, her voice getting loud. "Anyways, what time are you guys leaving?"

"Like in about an hour!" Tomoyo guessed finishing up of what was left of the food. "Oh My God, I have to go and get ready, what are you going to do when I'm gone?"

"Probably study some more"

"Sakura! You have like memorized like all the English words and everything you need!" protested Tomoyo.

"Hai, demo I'm not that great at the math section, and also if I'm done, I'll probably just watch TV," Sakura replied.

"Okay, fine, like I said, I'm going to get dressed before Eriol-chan comes!" Tomoyo announced and then went upstairs into her room.

Eriol and Tomoyo's Date…

Tomoyo and Eriol sat next to each other in a fancy dinner restaurant near the sea shore. He felt very nervous about telling Tomoyo about Syaoran and how he wanted to meet Sakura. First of all Tomoyo would be furious and so would Sakura. But maybe Syaoran would start to love Sakura too and would forget all about the plan, and Haku's bet was just so that Syaoran and a girl would get together. That's what Eriol had hoped and was still hoping.

"Tomoyo-chan?" Eriol asked cutely and innocently thinking a way to ask Syaoran for Sakura. He finally thought of a way to ask Tomoyo to take Sakura to meet Syaoran.

"Hai?" she asked as she took one last glance at her menu before putting it down. Eriol put his down too and started out roughly, he had never been alright of putting Sakura into a bet just between Syaoran and Haku. "You remember my friend Syaoran?" he paused for a second.

"Hai! Really the gentleman, demo he studied a lot, like way more than you, so what about him?" Tomoyo said looking at Eriol.

"Well, now that we both passed our Toudai (Tokyo University) entrance exam, he thinks that we should ano… have a party, so to speak. It's this Saturday, nothing formal or anything," Eriol stumbled. "And he would like you and Sakura-chan to attend."

She looked at Eriol for a second, leaned over and kissed him on the lips smiling, "sure, maybe," she put her finger on his chest and ran it in little circles as she spoke, "she would love it, and so would I, do you think there would be anyone who would care that we weren't there for a while?"

Eriol kissed her back, giving her a mischievously glance and said, "I doubt that anybody would care, just as long as we make it fast…"

"Then I'm there!" laughed Tomoyo.

"What you're just there for sexually things and not because I passed my exams?" pouted Eriol every-so-cutely.

"No of coarse not!" now you guys can tutor Sakura and I!" Tomoyo smiled pecked on his cheek and went back to the menu.

"Sure!" laughed Eriol. Plan One had been issued and now all he had to hope was that Tomoyo got Sakura to the party. "Two other things, one, make, make, make SURE that Sakura-chan comes to the party. I would really want her there; I'd like her to meet someone! And two, get me a present!"

"Sure, I'll try, try, try really hard!" Tomoyo mimicked.

"Oh I forgot to tell you, the party is at 4." Eriol reminded before starting telling the waiter what he wanted.

The date went one really well. After dinner, they walked into the park and just strolled around kissing each other. They night wasn't warm yet cold, just the perfect temperature.

It was 11:00 when Tomoyo got back to the apartment. Sighing she turned on the light to find Sakura still watching television. "Sakura, is that you?" Tomoyo asked, "Why are you still awake?"

"Oh, the movie just ended," Sakura said pointing to the TV. "How was the date?"

"Great, Eriol invited you and me to his party because he passed the Toudai Entrance Exams," explained Tomoyo. "Do you want to come?"

"Ano... I don't know…"

"Come on! You haven't done anything except study, come to the party" begged Tomoyo, "it would mean a lot to Eriol…"

After a few minutes of thinking, she finally said yes, "but just because it's Eriol's and Toudai!" she said.

Tomoyo hugged Sakura and said, "Arigatou! You won't know how much that'll mean to Eriol!" she let go of Sakura and stated, "I'm going to bed, don't forget the party's tomorrow!"

Eriol, Syaoran, and Haku…

"You WHAT!" Haku shouted angrily. "We're having a party tomorrow!"

"Hai, don't blame me, I said I didn't want part of this bet!" protested Eriol. "Anyways, I think it's for the best that Sakura-chan and Tomoyo come. I don't think Sakura-chan would like it if Syaoran just went to the door and asked her out!"

"Fine, we're having the party, invite anyone who can show up within 24 hours," grumbled Syaoran.

"Then it's settled!" Eriol said, "Except we probably—excuse me, you guys probably have to work all night!"

"Iie! You are going to help because it was you who did this, why couldn't make the party next Saturday, I bet half the people don't even come!" growled Haku as he grabbed Eriol's shirt collar as he tried to get away.

"Fine, just let me go to the bathroom!" responded Eriol tugging at Haku's grip. Haku finally loosened and let him go to the bathroom. After coming back, Syaoran said to him, "isn't there a window in the bathroom?"

Haku stopped and ran back with Syaoran sitting down muttering, "Baka, he has no place to go!" 10 seconds later, Syaoran heard Haku jump into the bathroom, and instantly, he heard Eriol scream at him, "what the hell! What the hell is the matter with you?"

Laughing to himself after he heard Eriol shout, Syaoran picked up a newspaper and started to read it. "You tricked me! Eriol has no place to go and I also go to see something I really didn't want to see!" Haku said as he came rushing back.

"Well, only a baka like you would do that!" laughed Syaoran.

"Let's just erase that from out memories shall we?" Haku asked.

"Nope, can't, I'm telling everyone what a baka you are." Syaoran smiled.

"ERASE!" he said making fast swiftly movements with his arms like an X.

"Don't—" Syaoran started.

"ERASE!" he repeated loudly interrupting Syaoran.

"LISTEN TO ME! Shouldn't we start calling people and getting ready?" Syaoran finally got out right when Eriol came back to the living room.

"Oh yeah, we should, it's about 12 right now, I think that if we do all the decorating right now, and invite everyone in the morning, I think we can make the party work, should we wake the servants up?" Haku said.

"No, we can do it ourselves, let them sleep." Eriol said.

They spent the rest of the night and morning doing the decorations, food and finding what they would wear. They each took turns sleeping and eating while the others worked. Syaoran called everyone told them that there was going to be a party at 3-4 in the afternoon because of the Toudai results that

"I can't believe I'm doing this all because of a bet…" Eriol grumbled as he finally did the last of the decorations. "5 more hours until everyone comes…" he said. It was 11 AM and the preparations were finally done with also the help with the servants.

At 4, guests started arriving; each one of them greeted Eriol and Syaoran with joy and congratulated them on their exams. It wasn't a formal party yet it wasn't a casual, it was a nice party which people dressed nicely.

"These were the only ones that were able to come," whispered Eriol to Haku by the punch stand.

"In other words, losers," mumbled Haku.

"Let's hope this works," Eriol said.

"It should,"

"I forgot to ask you, why make Syaoran the bet?" Eriol asked curiously.

"I'll tell you when it's time," Haku said mysteriously. "Right now let's just wait for our special three guests."

"Right, I'm a little sorry for Syaoran," Eriol laughed, "he's being mobbed by his relatives. Right now I'm glad that half my relatives are in England."

"Yeah, good thing I'm not him either" Haku responded.

Tomoyo and Sakura finally arrived at 4:15. Tomoyo rushed up to Eriol and gave him a hug and kiss as Sakura shook Syaoran and Haku's hand. "Sorry we're late," she said to Eriol, Syaoran, and Haku. "There was traffic and stuff."

"Congratulations Eriol-kun, Li-kun" congratulated Sakura as she walked through the door. They both had coats on but you could see the dress underneath. She took her coat off and gave it to the coat hanger person. She was wearing a red dress with black buttons and ribbons hanging off the shoulders and red ribbons off her hair.

"Yeah, Congratulation Syaoran-kun!" Tomoyo said happily as Eriol took off her coat for her. She was wearing a light purple dress with knot like ribbons on the shoulders. Her raven colored hair hung down. "You must've worked very hard."

"I have and so has your Eriol!" Syaoran said charmingly. He was always a charmer to parents and girls.

Tomoyo giggled and said, "I know and I'm given him a big present! But only because he told me to, and here it is!"

She picked up a big box and gave it Eriol. Eriol kissed Tomoyo took the box and set it down with all the other presents and came back. Tomoyo was chatting with Syaoran and seemed to talk about Tokyo university tests.

"Hey, Syaoran-kun just told me how hard the test was and what was on it, he said that the English is hard, right?" Tomoyo asked Eriol.

"yeah, but I'm pretty much fluent in English so that part was pretty easy for me, that's why Syaoran failed the first time he took it, he failed the English part," Eriol told Tomoyo and Sakura.

"Well not everyone is fluent in English like you are!" Syaoran growled.

Ding Dong

The doorbell rung once and Syaoran went to get it. Outside standing was a girl only of 18 with amber eyes and black hair. She wore a dark red dress that had long sleeves and hung from her shoulders. She hugged Syaoran and said "hi" to him and ran to Haku and kissed him on the cheek.

"Tomoyo, Sakura-chan, this is Li Meilin, cousin of Syaoran and girlfriend of Haku," Eriol introduced.

"You probably haven't met me before, I just got back from Beijing with my parents!" smiled Meilin and shook Tomoyo and Sakura's hands.

"Watashi wa Tomoyo-desu, I'm Eriol's girlfriend!" introduced Tomoyo.

"Watashi wa Sakura-desu, I'm Tomoyo's best friend." Sakura introduced.

"Mei-chan, why don't you come with me?" Haku asked sweetly. Meilin nodded and waved good-bye to the others, held Haku's hand and walked with him away.

"Ano…Tomoyo do you want some punch?" Eriol asked.

"Sure, I'll come with you!" Tomoyo said leaving Sakura and Syaoran together alone.

"So, how are you Sakura-san?" Syaoran started.

"Fine, what-so-ever!" Sakura replied sharply, and she walked away from Syaoran.

He was shocked to see how Sakura cold was. But he smiled to him self how fast he would have her in his hands. 'this is going to be interesting.' Syaoran thought to himself.

So what do you guys think?

So Sakura's cold to men, I wonder why? And what has Syaoran has up his sleeve?
