Disclaimer: I don't own Card Captor Sakura
Lee hugged him and after wishing him , his eyes moves towards Sakura.
"You look beautiful", says Syaoran as he passes her, in a small whisper so that she could only hear.
Hearing Syaoran say this to her, Sakura's heart skips a beat.
She blushes as Tomoyo nudges her with her elbow.
Sakura hurriedly goes to attend to the people who had showed up for Natsumi's birthday party.
"Daddy are you alright?" , Natsumi asks as he sees his father scowling for the sixth time.
"Oh! I'm ok", replies Syaoran cheerfully, maybe too cheerfully as Natsumi stares at him.
"You go and play with your friends , ok", Syaoran says as he sends Natsumi where his friends were.
Again , he scanned the room . There she was , dancing maybe the 10th time with some guy. Ahhhhhhh! How can she dance herself like that. Smiling at them when she had not smiled to him like that even once . Whenever Syaoran had talked with her , she was always polite, not the Sakura he remembered , who always spoke her mind.
Just then the music started. The men circled around Sakura , like bees attracted towards a beautiful flower. Sakura was like a beautiful flower.
Even he couldn't stop looking at her . Before she was beautiful, but now she was gorgeous .
When he saw her dancing with some guy, he had wanted to commit murder for the first time. He wanted to shout
'She's the mother of my child. No one has the right to dance with her except me .'
Even now , she was happily dancing with someone. Syaoran tightens his hand around his glass.
"Lost in thought , I presume", a voice penetrates through his thoughts. He turns to look at the speaker and sees a smiling Tomoyo . He relaxes his hand on the glass and looks elsewhere.
"Oh! Look, Sakura is dancing with the new Vice-President of our company. He and Sakura are good friends. He was senior to us in High-School. He has asked Sakura to marry him –", hearing this Syaorn looks at Tomoyo.
He gulps the champagne in one shot .
"Excuse me", says Syaoran as he heads towards Sakura.
Tomoyo smiles .
"My dance , I think", saying Syaoran takes Sakura in his arms for the dance.
Before her partner could protest, Syaoran gave his such an angry stare , that any protest he had , he forgot.
"Are you not enjoying the party?" , Sakura asks even though, her heart was beating rapidly.
"It seems your enjoying it for the both of us", replies Syaoran curtly.
"Hey ! Hey ! Whats that supposed to mean ?" , she asks him.
"Shhh! Lets just dance", says Syaoran as he embraces her.
She stood rigid for a few seconds , then she relaxed and put her head on his shoulder. He had finally asked her to dance. She had thought he would ignore her today from his previous behavior. When ever he used to drop Natsumi, he would politely talk with her and then go. It had pained a lot , but she also politely talked with him. . It had hurt that he did not even talk about getting back together. Her hope's of Syaoran coming back to her life was getting slimmer and slimmer.
When he had arrived ,all the women in the party from young girls to older women had flirted with him , and he in turn had given them such devastating smiles , which would make any women follow him on their knees anywhere.
Every time she had danced , she had looked towards him but he would be busy talking with some girl or women. She made up her mind that today she would tell him how she felt even though she knew that he did not love her anymore.
