Broken Promise
Chapter 4: Silent company
"Hey, welcome back, Li-san!" Megumi called out as she heard the front door slam shut. 'I hope he's doing okay,' she thought silently to herself as she watch Syaoran slouch down onto the couch.
It was already dark outside. Syaoran just spent the hours that passed walking around the town, getting himself acquainted to his new surroundings. But really, his thoughts had been on Sakura.
He thought himself a fool; he had waited too long. And now what happened? He lost Sakura. In fact, he practically gave her away to that Aoki guy! 'Oh that jerk!' Syaoran thought many times that night. 'What could he possibly have that I don't?'
But Syaoran knew what it was; Aoki was there for Sakura. Aoki was in Sakura's life daily. But most of all, he was there to support Sakura when Syaoran couldn't because he was all the way back in Hong Kong. 'It's all my fault,' Syaoran thought again, as he buried his head into his hands.
Suddenly he felt a warm hand clasp his shoulder, he looked up, and into the sapphire blue eyes of Megumi. 'When did I get back here?' he wondered to himself silently as he found himself back in his new apartment.
"Li-san?" Megumi called out to him again. 'How sad he looks. He must be devastated.' He finally looked up, and met her gaze. Megumi smiled, and then continued. "I was thinking, since you are my new roommate, that I could treat you out to dinner." 'Actually, I just want to take you out to dinner to cheer you up.'
Syaoran shook his head. "No thanks, I'm not really hungry," Syaoran stood up , but at that moment his stomach decided to protest against him.
"Really? Are you sure, Li-san? I think your stomach says differently," Megumi laughed. Syaoran blushed, and couldn't resist laughing along with his new roommate. "Okay, so let's go?" Megumi asked as she took Syaoran's hand.
He looked down at his hand in Megumi's. The last girl that he allowed to hold his hand like that was Sakura. Slowly, Syaoran looked back up to Megumi and nodded. "Great, so let's go." Megumi began to lead him out of the apartment, "I'm guessing that you might want some Chinese food right?" Syaoran nodded a little. "I know this perfect restaurant then," she said as she locked the door behind them.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Oh, I'm so full!" Megumi smiled happily. "That was a good dinner! I hope you enjoyed it too."
"Yeah, it was great," Syaoran nodded in reply. "Thanks again for dinner."
"Hey no problem, Li-san. Besides, I was to lazy to cook dinner anyways," Megumi shivered a little from the cold of the night. Megumi's cheeks had reddened a bit from the frosty chill of the evening. She tried to gain more warmth as she rubbed her palms together and wrapped her arms tighter around herself. Syaoran noticed.
"Here," Syaoran said as he began to take off his jacket.
"No I can't possibly," Megumi said shaking her head, and holding up her hands, trying to stop Syaoran. "How about you? You're going to be cold then."
Syaoran reached over, and wrapped the jacket around Megumi. "It's alright. Just think of this as my way of showing my gratitude for dinner." Syaoran replied as he wrapped his scarf around Megumi's neck as well, and looked down into her deep blue eyes.
Megumi blushed under Syaoran's steady. She began to bury herself in the fluffiness of the jacket's collar to hide her reddened cheeks.
They continued to walk along silently, but all of a sudden Syaoran stopped. Megumi looked up, and saw what had surprised Syaoran. "Sakura." Megumi heard Syaoran gasp.
Sakura and Aoki had just gotten out of the theater. Sakura had her head leaning against Aoki's chest. Syaoran's eyes widened as he saw Sakura lean forward, and meet Aoki in a kiss. The couple's embrace lasted long, but right away, Syaoran dashed across the street. Megumi followed after him.
Syaoran kept running; he didn't want to remember what he just saw. His Sakura kissing that other guy! He tightly closed his eyes, trying to forget, but knowing that it will always be burned into his memory. Syaoran staggered into the apartment building; ran up the stairs, and fiddled with his keys. He burst into the apartment, and collapsed on the couch.
A couple minutes later, Megumi ran in. She saw his outline in the dark. She approached him silently. She looked down at him sadly. She sat down next to him, put an arm around his shoulders, and with no words spoken, kept him company until dawn.
