Chapter 10

A Duet

Saturday morning...

"Hey Syaoran wake up!" Sakura shouted. Syaoran shakes his head as he gets off to bed.

"What's the commotion? It's Saturday, there's no classes." he said and transform into his true form. And so he walks off to the bathroom.

"Did you forget? Today is Naoko-chan's birthday." she said following him in the bathroom. There she saw Syaoran brushing his teeth.

"Commoner, its only 6:30 a.m. the party won't start until 9 o'clock. Excited much. Geez." he complained.

"I know but I still need to pick the gift I bought yesterday and I have lots of homework to do. And don't forget the fact that you owe me so you have to help me." she defended.

Flashback

Last Thursday...

Sakura's father, Fujitaka, bought a box of strawberry shortcake which he sliced into 4. One for Sakura, Syaoran, Touya and himself. Before he leave, he place the remaining of the cake in the fridge which Syaoran saw when he was ransacking the fridge for snack.

"Looks yummy." he said when all of a sudden the phone rang so he left the cake in the dining table while he fetch the phone. But when he went back to the kitchen to get his cake he saw the neighbor's cat with smears of his cake on its face.

"Why you?!" and so he lunged at the cat but it quickly leaped out of the window.

"This is not over yet you good-for-nothing cat!" he cursed as he watch the cat walk away.

Dinnertime...

"The shortcake Otou-san bought looks yummy might as well eat it after I finish reviewing my lessons so don't sneak in and eat mine. I'll be keeping an eye to you, Kaiju." Touya warned.

"As if!" Sakura said annoyed. Her brother then left the room as Sakura eats her piece while Syaoran just drool at the sight before him.

"Do you want some?" Sakura asked.

"You bet!" he said without hesitation.

"Where's yours anyway?" Sakura asked as she slice what's left of her cake into two.

"That good-for-nothing cat ate it." he muttered and took the slice of cake Sakura's handing him.

"Is that so?" she asked rhetorically.

"I never knew it but you really are so nice, Commoner. So if there's anything I can do for you just name it!" he said not even thinking what he's saying.

"You don't have to."

"Believe me I do. I owe you!"

End of Flashback

"Fine. But just please leave the room or do you want me to take a shower in front of you?" he said sarcastically.

"Of course not!" she complained and burst out of the bathroom.

"Sakura-san here is the gift you bought yesterday." the guy in the gift shop said as he hand Sakura the gift wrapped horror book she bought yesterday.

"Thanks, Kenta-san." Sakura said and took the gift.

"Anytime Sakura-san." he said with a warm smile.

"Thank you again." she said before finally leaving the place.

"All done." Syaoran said. After of an hour of cleaning the house, he finished. The whole place is clean and so shiny. Not even a mark of dirt can be seen. You can even see your reflection in the floor. Okay so I was exaggerating in the reflection part.

"You have done a great job, Syaoran." Sakura said as she enters the house.

"Yeah. No thanks to you." he complained.

"I'm sorry if I didn't help you cleaning. Got a little side track you see but I promise to make it up to you tomorrow. Let's go malling. What do you say?" she offered.

"Does that mean you'll buy me a S' mores cake?"

"If you want."

"You're the best, Commoner!" he said and hugged Sakura close. They stayed like that for a while until they realize how awkward the situation they are in. And just to make matters worst, the two of them suddenly looked into each others eyes that made them blush like a tomato.

"Oh look at the time! We'll be late!" Syaoran said trying to change the subject. So he went upstairs to get change.

"You're right." Sakura said and followed Syaoran.

Naoko's house or should I say mansion is filled of teenagers mostly from their class and some are her friends from other section.

"Sakura-chan I'm so happy you could come." Naoko greeted Sakura as soon as Sakura laid foot in her house.

"It's my pleasure Naoko-chan." Sakura greeted back and handed out her gift for her friend.

"Thanks."

"You're welcome."

"Li-kun it's so good you can come along. Those girls have been bugging me ever since they got here, asking if you're going to come." Naoko complained pin pointing the girls gossiping in the corner of the pool.

"What can I say I'm a natural charmer." Syaoran said.

"Okay Mister Charmer let's go join Tomoyo-chan and the others." Sakura said. "Let's go Naoko-chan."

"I'll catch up later. I need to welcome the other guest you see."

"If you say so." Sakura said and walks to where Tomoyo and her other friends were.

"If I didn't know the truth I'd say Sakura-chan and Li-kun really are together." Naoko said to herself as she watch Sakura walks side by side with Syaoran, her arm intertwine with Syaoran's.

"Karaoke time!" Naoko announced to all her guests.

"So who's gonna sing first?" she asked raising the mic.

"Daidouji-san!" someone shouted.

"Yeah!" someone agreed. "TOMOYO! TOMOYO! TOMOYO!" they all started chanting much to the annoyance of poor Tomoyo.

"I can't, my voice a little hoarse today." she said trying to change the sound of her voice.

"C 'mon Tomoyo-chan. Just one, please. It's Naoko-chan's birthday anyway." Sakura begged.

"Okay." and the crowd started applauding. "If Sakura-chan and Li-kun sing." she added. By this time, Syaoran has spit the soda he's drinking in Zero's face.

"Hey watch it!" Zero said annoyed.

"That would be great!" someone said. "SAKURA! SYAORAN! SAKURA! SYAORAN!" the crowd started chanting again.

"You know I don't sing, Tomoyo-chan." Sakura protested. "It'll be fun, Commoner." Syaoran said as he took Sakura's hand and guided her in front. Syaoran then signaled the guy next to the karaoke machine.

"Oh, yeah, ohhh, yeah." Syaoran started and gave Sakura a little nudge afterwards.

"If the heart is always searching, can you ever find a home?" Sakura continued.

"I've been looking for that someone; I'll never make it on my own." By this time, Syaoran is holding Sakura's hand.

(A/N: Italicized means it's Sakura, underlined means it's Syaoran.)

"Dreams can't take the place of loving you." and now Sakura's really into it now.

"There's gotta be a million reasons why it's true."

"When you look me in the eyes and tell me that you love me, everything's alright. When you look me in the eyes." at this part, Zero is getting really annoyed. More like jealous since the two of them are so close. Sakura's arm is around Syaoran's waist while Syaoran got an arm around Sakura's shoulder.

"When you look me in the eyes, I catch a glimpse of heaven. I find my paradise, when you look me in the eyes."

"Wow they're so great!" someone said to her companion.

"I have to agree in that."

"How long will I be waiting to be with you again?"

"Gonna tell you that I love you in the best way that I can."

"I can't take a day without you here."

"You're the light that makes my darkness disappear."

"Tomoyo-chan, Sakura-chan is really great you have to agree." Naoko whispered to Tomoyo who was filming the whole thing again.

"Tell me about it."

"More and more, I start to realize. I can reach my tomorrow. I can hold my head up high."

"And it's all because you're by my side." and they continued on.

"When you look me in the eyes." after that last lyrics, the whole crowd started shouting probably from amusement.

"You got to admit they have chemistry together." Kenta, one of Zero's buddies, said.

"I know and it's killing me." he exaggerated.

"I don't sing, good one Sakura-chan." Tomoyo said before going in front to sing.

"Hey Syaoran, thanks." Sakura said following Syaoran in the pool side.

"I didn't do anything." he said after munching down some of his cake.

"You're wrong." she said wiping some of the cream from his face with her handkerchief.

"If you say so." he said and continued eating.

"Thanks Naoko-chan. I had a great time." Sakura said.

"It's my pleasure, Sakura-chan. See ya on Monday." Naoko said.

"See ya later, Naoko-chan." Sakura wave goodbye and grabbed Syaoran from his fans club before they left.

On their way home, the rain started pouring and just to make it worse the two of them doesn't have an umbrella with them.

"What a bummer! We're wet!" Syaoran cursed while Sakura just stood there in the middle of the street staring at the pouring rain.

"What are you doing, Commoner? Let's go!" Syaoran said.

"Commoner?! Are you with me or are you on another planet?" he asked. "It already has been more than 2 months since we met, right?" she asked.

"Yeah, why?" he asked.

"Then that must have mean you'll be leaving anytime soon." she said disappointed.

"Now that I think about it, you're right." he said.

"I'll miss you, Syaoran." Sakura said. The two of them lock gazes. Syaoran can't help but feel sad looking into Sakura's emerald eyes which are about burst into tears.

"I'll miss you too, Sakura. But it's not the end of the world, right?" he said trying to change the mood.

"You're right. We'll still see each other again, right?" she asked.

"Of course."

"Then promise." she said raising her little finger.

"Pinky swear?" he asked rhetorically but took her little finger and intertwines his with hers.

"That's a promise."

"Yeah. Anyway we'll catch a cold if stay here any longer." he said. Sakura agreed and left for cover.
