Thank you guys for the reveiws/suggestions! Just a few things I want to point out, 1. Dialogues are in DOUBLE QUOTES and thoughts are in SINGLE QUOTES. 2. I don't own lyrics from the song, 'STOLE MY HEART' by One Direction. It belongs rightfully to them. I'm just saying! Anyways, on with the story! :)
Syaoran looked at himself in the mirror one last time. Messy hair: Check, White button down t-shirt: Check, Black pants: Check, Black shoes: Check, Tie: Che- Where was it? He turned to face the left wall of his closet, where he had his ties on the top shelves while his shoes were on the bottom ones. He looked through his vast collection of ties, smiling as he did so. Most of them were in different shades, tints and hues of green. After a few minutes of pondering, he finally chose a plain deep green tie. He put it under his collar and tied it loosely. Suddenly, his phone began to vibrate. It was a text from Eriol which read, Don't be late, Mr. High and Mighty. Syaoran smirked and texted back, Let's see who gets his ass first there, okay? As he waited for the reply, he checked his watch. Only 9:30, eh? That was a LOT of time. His phone vibrated and it showed the message, You're on. C ya, LOOSER... :P Syaoran snickered. Eriol was so gonna loose. With one last look at himself in the mirror, he grabbed his car keys and rushed out of his closet, shutting the doors with a BANG behind him.
Oh, how he loved proving Eriol wrong.
A certain girl looked at herself in the mirror. Her green eyes scrutinized her everything she wore, right from the earrings to to her shoes. She was dressed in a white strapless dress that flowed down to her knees. There was a deep green velvet sash around her waist, and nothing more on her spotless white dress. It was simple, yet elegant at the same time. Her auburn hair was in soft curls up to her neck, framing her pretty face. She wore hanging earrings, with tiny green bows at the end along with a matching bracelet. Not to mention white ballerina shoes, adorned with tiny green bows on each shoe. She completed her look with a green purse which had a long strap, which she could sling over her shoulder. Well, she was ready to go. She checked her cellphone, and was not surprised to see 5 text messages from her best friend, Daidouji Tomoyo. She read the latest one, not bothering to check the previous ones. It said, Where the HELL r u Sakura? Ur late! Shit. She was late. She checked the time on her cell. It read 10:15pm. Shit. Shit. She, Kinomoto Sakura, was FREAKING late!
She kept her phone back in her purse, grabbed her car keys and ran to her car. "Why can't I ever be early?" she moaned to herself.
Syaoran entered Tomoyo's house, only to be greeted by a rush of music and laughter. It never failed to amaze him how his spokesperson could make her huge living room into a party pad in a single day. There was a disco-ball above the dance floor where people were dancing like mad. Not to forget, there were also multi-colored lights on the ceiling, so the whole room changed color in a matter of seconds. "So there you are, Syaoran." he heard a voice say, and it was someone he didn't want to meet. Hiiragizawa Eriol. With a smug smile plastered on his face. "Who said they'll be here first?" he ask, his annoying smile widening. Syaoran smacked his head. It was Eriol's girlfriend's party. Of course he would be here before anyone else. "Okay, you win." said Syaoran with a defeated sigh. Eriol pumped his hands in the air and said "BOOYAH!"Syaoran simply rolled his eyes. "Anyways now that you're here, are you ready to be mobbed?" asked Eriol. Syaoran looked around. There were girls alright, confirming his fear. But they all were busy, dancing or flirting with the other guys there. "Hey man, I seriously doubt that's going to happen here." he said, smirking. Eriol just glared at him. That's when they heard a high pitched giggle behind them. They turned to face one another, only to see fear masked on the others face. What if it was a crazy fan girl? But Tomoyo usually invited both of them to her parties where there were people who wouldn't spill about them to the press. Then again, there were a LOT of people there. Gulping, both of them turned around only to be met by sparkling amethyst eyes."TOMOYO!" both of them screamed together. She couldn't contain her laughter any more, and laughed out loud. Both the boys stared at her with an incredulous look. You guys.. looked… So…. FUNNY!" she exclaimed in between gasps for breath. They stared at her for a whole minute before joining her laughing. When it died down Eriol asked her, "Did we really look that funny?" She simply nodded her head quickly, with a huge smile on her face. Oh, she had almost forgotten why she came here. She needed to talk to Syaoran.
"Okay Syaoran. Here's the deal. This party is filled with boys and girls who are ALL single. You can take a chance at either of them." She said, quite seriously.
Syaoran gawked at that comment while Eriol erupted laughing. "What the he-"he was about to say, but Tomoyo cut him off. "Just kidding." She said, with a wink. Before he could say anything, she again spoke up. "As I was saying, this party is filled with girls and guys who are single. They all are good friends of mine, who have all sworn to keep the presence of you guys a secret. So, you have the whole night to go and mingle and chat with the girls. You could call this, a supposed 'bonding party'." He simply smacked his head for the second time that night. Of course Tomoyo would have set something like this up. "You aren't going to leave me in peace until I get a girlfriend, right?" he asked with a sigh. She stubbornly shook her head from side to side. He scowled for a moment, and then decided to drop it. It was no use. "Okay, okay. I'm going. You two have fun while I chat with random girls." He grumbled to himself as he walked away from the couple.
Tomoyo watched Syaoran's receding figure in the crowd. "How do you think it'll turn out?" she asked her boyfriend, a little concerned. He just shook his head. "Everything will be fine." She looked at him. There was a weird glint in his eyes, like he knew something that she didn't. "How can you tell?" she asked. "Well, I can't actually tell. It's just a feeling." He replied, which puzzled her. She was about to ask more, but he pulled her to the dance floor with one swift movement. She rolled her eyes, knowing Eriol wasn't going to drop any hints. This was just a distraction. But soon enough, she was dancing with him, swaying her body to the crazy beat. The questioning would have to wait a while.
Syaoran walked around looking here and there. He saw plenty of girls, but none of them in particular interested him. 'Ha, there's no one for me in here Tomoyo.' He thought to himself, with his thoughts smug. He ended up standing in a secluded corner, watching everyone dancing. But in a few minutes, he got bored. There wasn't anyone he knew. So he ended up getting on the dance floor, just to loosen a bit. Soon he was also caught in the entrancing beat, unable to stop dancing.
Sakura's eyes widened as soon as she set foot into Tomoyo's house. They place was packed, and everyone was either flirting or dancing or having a good time. She walked around, completely mesmerized by the activity. She noticed that 3/4th of the people were on the dance floor alone. And she barely knew any one there. With a slight shrug, she decided to hit the dance floor.
She didn't know how long she danced, but she didn't care at the moment. Her head was swinging wildly, while her body moved with the music. She felt so great, so free. That's when she realized: she hadn't met Tomoyo yet! Unwillingly, she began to walk away from the crowd. Her eyes were only on the dancers, as she backed away slowly. Suddenly, she bumped into someone. She felt herself loose balance, as she was about to fall. She closed her eyes shut, and waited for the impact of the ground on her face. Surprisingly, she never did. She curiously opened her eyes, only to find bright, amber orbs staring into her eyes.
Syaoran had been fixing his shoe lace while sitting on the ground when noticed a girl staring at the crazy crowd. She was pretty all right, but he had a feeling that he had seen her before. What caught his attention were her emerald green eyes, which had a look of longing and hope. Captivated, he started to make his way to her. That's when she literally fell on him. Her eyes were shut, but when she noticed she wasn't falling, she opened them wide. Syaoran felt himself getting lost in them. Somewhere in the back of his mind, he remembered those three lines- 'Can I have a map?' 'Why?' 'I've got lost in your eyes.'
He knew it sounded cheesy, but that's how he felt now. She too didn't falter her gaze, and he felt the heat rush to his cheeks. The HEAT? Whoa, he was actually blushing! Someone behind them cleared their throat, and she sprang away from him. He noted that her cheeks were also pink. So he wasn't the only one affected here.
"So I think you guys have met?" asked a feminine voice, with a hint of naughtiness. He turned to see Tomoyo, with eyebrows raised and a huge smile. "No, not real….ly" stuttered the green eyed beauty. Tomoyo's grin seemed to grow wider with every passing second. She looked at Syaoran and winked at him. Green eyes turned red, and Syaoran bet he had too. "Okay. Let's start with introductions. Li Syaoran, this is Kinomoto Sakura. Sakura, Syaoran. Sakura gave him a small smile. Almost automatically, he felt the corners of his lips twitch too. "Hi." He said and extended his hand. "Hey yourself." She said and shook his hand. It was surprisingly firm, Syaoran realized. But, he held it longer than intended. He felt himself getting lost in her eyes all over again.
Sakura found it very hard for herself to tear her eyes away from his. She didn't know how, but she felt sparks fly when he held her hand. Or maybe she was just hallucinating. When he let go a few minutes later, she felt disappointed. What the hell? Did this mean she had already fallen for the famous pop star? She shook her head, and found him smiling at her softly. She blushed harder, and forced herself to look away from him. "Um, I'll be going!" she said, a little too fast as she pulled Tomoyo and ran away from him.
Once out of the door, she sighed in relief. Tomoyo squealed loudly, "SAKURA! YOU LIKE SYAORAN!" Sakura had always thought this was impossible, love at first sight. But she guessed that this was the day she was proved wrong. And she couldn't get her hopes high. 'I mean, he's famous. I need some time to think.'she thought to herself. "Tomoyo, I'm going. See ya later. Bye!" she screamed. Not waiting for a response, she dashed to her car.
As soon as Sakura had left, Syaoran found himself rooted to the spot. And he was only thinking of her. The way she smiled, her blush and even the way she stuttered. God, he'd fallen for a girl he didn't even know. And she was the one for him. He felt it when they touched, the electric sparks through his body. Grinning like an idiot, he walked to his car. He drove all the way home. There he went up to his bedroom and again caught himself thinking of her. He had fallen hard. Love at first sight. Pft. This was really all new to him. He got up, grabbed a pencil and a pen and sat at his desk. He was going to write a song about tonight. And the lyrics even came easily. He smiled contently at the few lines he had written before drifting off to sleep on the desk itself. It read :
~Under the lights tonight, You turned around. And you sole my heart with just one look. And I saw your face, I fell in love. It took a minute girl, to steal my heart tonight!~
Okay, done with chapter 2. And it might not be that great, because I kinda wrote it in a hurry. Soory about that! :(
And any suggestions you guys have, feel free to leave it as a review!
So what did ya guys think of it? Please read and review! :D
