Ch. 1

There I was sitting at my grandmother's house bored out of my mind. I had been there for a night and I already wanted to go back home to Japan. She came into my room about five o'clock and told me that we were going to a party. Now mind you when she said "party" I knew that she of course meant that it would be full of people over 45. Little did I know that in about two hours I was about to meet the hottest guy in Hong Kong. Before she walked out of my room she said to dress nicely because there would be other people there my age and you never know who you will see. Oh if I only knew how right she would be…

It was about 6:30 when I was finally ready to meet my doom. I had on my favorite Dolce and Gabbana mermaid cut black dressa and silver Jimmy Choos. It was my favorite because the front cut down to the middle of my torso and had diamond strands keeping the front together. I always like to cause a little bit of a stir when we go to these extremely boring parties I mean if I have to be there why not be noticed. We pulled up to this huge house that was full of expensive cars. Of course this was nothing new to me because what else do old people spend their money on?

"Well we are here and I really hope that you have fun at this one. I know that there is going to be a lot of people your age here, but I can't remember why." My grandmother said. She stood there for a minute to remember why she knew this and then she said, "Oh there are a lot of people that are from the music industry here and some band is here as a favor." The Coopers do a lot of business with all sorts of people and the people in music make up a good portion of the people they work with. You always know that when you go to a Cooper party they are bound to have a good performer and tonight was no different.

"Yeah sure Mimi whatever you say. Just come find me when it's time to leave." You could hear the boredom in my voice already. When I walked through the doors of the elegant house I was welcomed by a doorman that took my jacket and purse. I continued to make my way to the back of the house hoping to come across people that looked my age or with the slim hope that I would know someone. Of course neither happened and I got stopped but about 10 people that stopped me and asked me how my summer was. I had spent the summer in London studying for a semester and they politely faked interest. When really I know they just wanted to see if I knew anything about the latest gossip. I was polite the entire time because lord knows that if I wasn't my grandmother would be at my throat in a heartbeat.

On the back terrace there was a small mini bar that was serving champagne and I made a bee line for that. I had been out there for about five minutes until my grandmother found me and wanted to introduce me to someone that she thought I would find interesting. So I slowly made my way over to where this person that I was to meet was. I saw the back of a balding guys head and groaned inside. 'Please not another old guy that is trying to hook me up with his socially awkward son!'

"Please Mimi I really don't want to go meet another old guy that wants me to meet his son." I pleaded.

"Oh Sakura hush I am not going to be introducing you to another old man thank you!" My grandmother snapped and she continued to walk right by the balding man. I felt a sigh of relief as we continued to walk by the older man. When we rounded the corner there was Don (my step-grandfather who I had not started to warm up to just yet) and a very handsome young man.

"Ah I see you were able to find her my dear." Don said once we reached him. I stared at the man in front of me and he couldn't be more than 22 years old. He was dressed in a simple black button up and black slacks and had on a skinny silver tie. He had the most amazing brown eyes that had a small hint of gold around the edges. He was no taller than six feet and had a subtle smile on his face. He looked like he staying in pretty good shape and as I looked at him I secretly hoped that we got along so I would have someone to talk to the rest of the night. Needless to say I was also hoping it would be someone that I continued to talk to even after the night was over.

"It took me a minute it but I found her on the back terrace." My grandmother said as she kissed Don on the cheek. "I'm so sorry to keep you waiting Syaoran I hope that my husband didn't bore you too much." She had a slight smile on her face from teasing Don.

"No ma'am we were just talking about how I was enjoying being back home in Hong Kong." He looked my way as he finished talking and gave me a good look over. Needless to say I had been doing the same thing the entire time that he was talking. At that I cleared my throat hoping to catch my grandmother's attention.

"Oh my goodness where are my manners? Syaoran I would like you to meet my granddaughter Sakura." My grandmother looked at me hoping that I would be polite to say hi and not be rude like I was most of the time.

"It is certainly nice to meet you Sakura. My name is Syaoran as you have already been told." He put out his hand and I graciously shook it. I don't know if it was me but I swear I could have felt a little bit of a jolt when our skin touched.

"It is certainly a pleasure to meet you too Syaoran." I replied to him and then turned to my grandmother "And here I thought you were bringing me over to meet another old guy who wanted me to marry his son!" Syaoran gave a slight chuckle at hearing this.

"Well Sakura I'm afraid if I disappointed you I'm afraid that I am not a middle aged man trying to get you to marry my son. I hope that that didn't ruin your night once you found out who I was." I couldn't help but not to smile at that.

"No if anything you saved me from another embarrassing episode… for now at least anyways. Worse case you will be the one thing that made this night not a total let down." I said with a little hint of a smile hoping he would take the bait. Which he did!

"Well I will try my very hardest to make this one of the best parties you have been to. If I remember correctly Don told me that you despise having to come but you play along wonderfully."

"Oh did he now?" I glared at Don who just shrugged and pretended like he didn't know what Syaoran was talking about. At that moment my grandmother decided to butt in.

"Well it seems that you two have hit it off wonderfully and if you two don't mind we are going to go mingle with people our age. It was wonderful to meet you Syaoran and I hope to see you again before the night is over." With that said my grandmother and Don left. As they were walking away she whispered "Do you think we should tell her who he really is?"

Don just looked at her and simple said "No she will be just fine. Besides that would spoil the surprise and it might freak her out if she knew who he really was." Now of course I didn't hear any of this because I was too busy looking Syaoran over AGAIN.

"So Syaoran, what exactly brought you to this party? I'm afraid I have never seen you before." I was curious and what else would I have said.

"Well I am here on business you could say and the Coopers are some of the people I work with. They invited me to this party tonight in hopes that I wouldn't be bored sitting in my hotel room with my crazy brothers. They feel that we need to have a life every once in awhile and interact with human beings other than each other."

"Well I would definitely agree with them. Are your brothers here by chance?" I wanted to ask why he would be locked up in a hotel room with his brothers so bad, but that would have been rude.

"Well, no they aren't here yet. I imagine they will be here by the time the show starts though."

"Show? What show?" I tried to rack my brain trying to remember if my grandmother had mentioned who was playing. Obviously it was someone that was popular with people my age. I started to look around and there were quite a few younger people. Actually there were tons and they all kept looking over at us but I didn't know why. 'God I hope that there is nothing on my dress!' I silently prayed.

"Well apparently some popular band is going to be playing a couple songs tonight as a favor for the Cooper's. I haven't heard who they are but apparently they are the newest craze among the young girls." Syaoran started to look around and apparently he noticed that we were getting a lot of looks too. "Would you like to go somewhere else? I feel that we are on show at a zoo or something from the looks that we are getting from everyone."

"You know I noticed the same thing just a second ago. Well I don't want to get in the way of you meeting other people. I've already taken up a good five minutes of your time." I said jokingly and laughed at this.

"Oh please don't worry about that. I have plenty of time to go talk to them, but I would like to get to know you a little bit better. Besides I did say that I was going to try to make this the best party you went to didn't I?" I smiled up at him and nodded. He then reached down and took my hand and led the way into the house.

Outside you could hear the murmurs of the people.

"Hey isn't that Syaoran Li?"

"Did you see him take her hand?"

"I wonder who she is and why he is taking her inside."


So what did you think??? Should I continue with the story?? And who is Syaoran Li?
