Falling For You
Chapter 14: Light! Camera! Action!
Touya walked into a dim lighted room. He looked up at his father, who was sitting on his luxury leather chair. Fujitaka had his leg crossed as he leaned back into his chair. Touya knew his father more than Sakura. His father changed since his mother passed away. Fujitaka heart had turned cold as ice. Fujitaka became more demanding toward his family. He doesn't care anything except his own righteous thoughts. Touya hoped that someone will warm his coldness down. But was it possible? Touya stepped closer to his father, waiting until he speaks.
"Touya, I want him in this program." said Fujitaka.
"Him? You don't mean Sakura fiancé?" questioned Touya.
"How dare he propose to Sakura in front of the reporters? I want to make sure he knows Sakura has a perfect match." said Fujitaka in a calm cold voice.
"Should I inform Sakura?" asked Touya.
"No need to. She'll know soon enough." said Fujitaka. Touya watch helplessly at his father. He doesn't want to force Sakura to marry someone she might not like. He wanted his sister to live happily, but Touya didn't dare argue with his father. Why? He was a coward and he hated to admit it.
-o-
Sakura groan as the make up artist tap her face with foundations. Today was the first shoot of a program called, Young Love. More than five years, Sakura avoided her father company. But who would have known, that she would now work for it. Sakura groan once more as the make up artist color her lips with pink lips stick.
"Could you stop groaning? It sounds like some angry teddy bear. Oh wait, you are an angry teddy bear." mocked Syaoran as he walk in the dressing room. Sakura glared at Syaoran.
"I'm warning you Syaoran. Don't tick me off because I'm already in the mood to use my high kick right now." said Sakura as she huffed out angrily. The make up artist finish the last touch on Sakura face.
"There. Finish." she said as she packed up her make up. Sakura glanced at the mirror and looked at her newly make up face. She couldn't believe it. She actually looked pretty nice.
"Don't fall in love with yourself Sakura." said Syaoran as he stood beside Sakura.
Sakura looked away from the mirror and faced Syaoran. Sakura heart suddenly began to pound as if something just hit her there. Sakura noticed her locket was sticking out of his back pocket.
"So, about this program." Syaoran started to say. Sakura quickly glanced back at Syaoran as she listened.
"The director says just act as we usual do since it's a reality show." explain Syaoran.
"Act as we usual do? Sounds easy enough." said Sakura.
"But we have to fake out the romance" added Syaoran.
"Romance? You mean between us?" questioned Sakura.
"Remember, I propose to you?" remind Syaoran.
"Great, what am I suppose to do? Say, 'I do' and get married with you?" said Sakura.
"Actually, the director wants you to decline my proposal." said Syaoran. Sakura blinked as she looked up at Syaoran.
"That will solve the proposal issue. All you have to do is act like you usually do." said Syaoran.
"Syaoran! Sakura! It's time for the shoot!" shouted the director.
"Ok Sakura, ready?" asked Syaoran.
Sakura gulped as she felt nervous. "R-Right now? How about in five more minutes?" said Sakura.
"Come on. There's nothing to worry about. Just act as you usually do." said Syaoran as he left the room. Sakura took a long deep breath.
"Oh man….I can't believe I'm doing this." said Sakura.
"Sakura!" shouted the director.
"Coming!" shouted back Sakura. Sakura stood up straight and took another big breath.
"I could do this. Just act as I usually do." mumbled Sakura as she walk out of the dressing room. The shooting took place in a mansion which was located far away from the city and in the middle of a valley. The shooting will take at least a month so that meant Sakura had to live in the mansion for a month. Sakura hated the idea, but didn't have a choice.
"Ok, we'll start the shoot when Sakura decline Syaoran. And from there it's up to you two." said the director.
Sakura nodded as she understands.
"Ok. Light! Camera! ACTION!!!" yelled out the director. Sakura and Syaoran stood in the middle of the living room.
"So have you thought about my proposal?" asked Syaoran as he grinned.
"Y-yes." stuttered Sakura as she couldn't help glancing at the camera every second.
"I want you to look at my eyes when you answer Sakura." said Syaoran. Sakura slowly shift her eyes toward Syaoran. After starting at Syaoran eyes for a while, Sakura finally became calm.
"I'm sorry. I can't accept your proposal." said Sakura, boldly
Syaoran smirked. "I knew it." Syaoran blurted out.
"What?" questioned Sakura.
"Of course you'll decline it. I'm your number one enemy." stated Syaoran Sakura blinked a couple of times as Syaoran character suddenly changed.
"I was just playing Sakura. I was just curious what your expression will be when I propose to you. I can't believe you fail for it!" said Syaoran as he laughed out. Sakura glared angrily at Syaoran.
"Did you really think I'll go for a girl who wears teddy bear….." Syaoran broke off as he slowly looked over at Sakura wide shocking eyes.
"S-S-Syaoran!!! You promise!" shouted Sakura.
"I didn't say it!" claimed Syaoran as he began to run off.
"Yes you did!!!" shouted Sakura angrily as she started to chase Syaoran.
"No I didn't! I didn't say 'underwear'…..oh crap." Syaoran didn't care about the shoot, he ran away from Sakura as if his life depends on it.
"SYAORAN!!!!! YOU'RE DEAD MEAT!!!" hollered Sakura as she began to run until she heard the director shout.
"CUT!" Sakura stopped herself from running and turned around to the camera.
"Oh god…." mumbled out Sakura.
"That was great Sakura! It was actually fun to watch!" said the director.
"Director! We have to re-shoot that scene! It was a BIG mistake!" stated Sakura.
"What are you talking about? That was great!" commented the director.
"But-but…."
"Ok, let's continue shooting again. Sakura, are you ready?" asked the director. Before Sakura could say a word, the camera was rolling again.
Later
Sakura didn't dare to beat up Syaoran in front of the camera. So she just sat in the dinning room calmly. Syaoran walked out of the kitchen with two plates of pasta. Sakura couldn't help but to glance at her locket again which was sticking out of Syaoran back pocket. Syaoran sat on a seat beside Sakura.
"Hungry?" asked Syaoran.
"No." answered Sakura, coldly.
"Oh ok." said Syaoran as he took the plate away from Sakura.
"Wait! I'll eat it since it will be a waste." said Sakura.
"It's ok. I could finish both myself." said Syaoran as he took a bit of the pasta.
"It's pretty good." said Syaoran. Sakura watch Syaoran took another bit of the pasta. Sakura rubbed her hungry stomach. Sakura glance around the room where she could see hidden cameras.
"I thought the shoot was over when the director left, but I guess I was wrong." said Sakura.
"Remember Sakura, this is a reality show." remind Syaoran.
"The only place without hidden camera will be our rooms." said Syaoran. Sakura watch Syaoran took another bit of the pasta. Syaoran glanced at Sakura, who was drooling over his food.
"Are you sure you're not hungry?" Syaoran asked again.
"Nope!" declare Sakura. GROWL! Sakura squint her eyes as she heard her stomach growl.
"Last time Sakura, are you sure you're not hungry?" Syaoran asked again.
"Oh fine! I'm starving! Better?" said Sakura as she pouted. Syaoran slide the plate of pasta to Sakura.
"You're so stubborn Sakura." said Syaoran as he smiled.
"Never knew?" said Sakura
"Honestly Sakura, I think everyone would find you stubborn the moment they meet you." said Syaoran as he smirked.
"Are you trying to pick a fight?" asked Sakura
"With your kung fu skills, you're not a match for me. Try to learn some karate instead." said Syaoran as he got up from his chair and walk out of the dinning room.
Sakura glared angrily at Syaoran. "What's his problem?" mumbled Sakura. Syaoran walk down the hallway as Sakura followed him behind. Sakura glanced at her locket again.
'Damn it, I can't stop staring at my locket.' thought Sakura.
'Syaoran never said anything about that night. Does he really not remember?' thought Sakura again. Syaoran stopped walking and turned around to face Sakura.
"17 times." blurted out Syaoran.
"Huh?" questioned Sakura. Syaoran slowly stepped toward Sakura. Feeling nervous, Sakura slowly stepped back.
"Make that 18 times." said Syaoran as he grinned. Sakura walked back until she reached against the wall. Sakura watch Syaoran approaching her slowly. Sakura heart beat rapidly as Syaoran leaned out toward her.
"I never knew you had a dirty mind Sakura." Syaoran started to say.
"What are you talking about?" asked Sakura. Sakura blinked a couple of times as she stared into Syaoran amber eyes.
"Since this morning until now, you were looking at my bottom 18 times." claimed Syaoran. Sakura had a questioned expression on her face.
"What are you talking about?" Sakura asked again.
"Tell me Sakura, do I really have a sexy ass?" asked Syaoran as he grinned.
"Syaoran, I have no idea what you're talking about. I did not look at your…." Sakura eyes widen. Every time Sakura was glancing at Syaoran back pocket where her locket was sticking out, Syaoran thought she was looking at his…..
"Oh god…" Sakura mumbled out.
DingDong! Sakura and Syaoran heard the door bell rang.
"Did the director come back to check on us?" wondered Syaoran as he stepped away from Sakura and walked to the door.
Sakura sighed. "Save by the bell." Sakura walked toward the entrance. Sakura knew it had to be the director. First of all, Touya would never let Sakura stay alone with Syaoran in the big mansion even though there were cameras hidden everywhere.
"What are you two doing here?" Sakura heard Syaoran said. Sakura walked next to Syaoran.
"Who is it?" asked Sakura as she looked out the door. Sakura eyes widen as she saw Ken and Meilin standing in front of the door with their luggage.
"YOU GUYS!"
Note: Syaoran never knew Sakura was staring at her locket. Lol, How was it? I would like to say THANK YOU for the REVIEWS!!!!!!
