Proposal: 3
Party Time!!!
Sakura walked around the mall with Fuu and Yochi behind her. They went from store to store searching for the right centerpieces, and such, for the wedding. Sakura was exhausted after having no luck for the past few hours. "Are you sire Tomoyo couldn't come and help with all of this?" Her best friend was always better at these than she was.
Yochi withheld a laugh; she had to keep the act going. They had told Sakura that Tomoyo had come down with the flu and Meilin was out, so neither could come. In actuality, both were over at Tomoyo's getting ready for the surprise bachelorette party, while Fuu and Yochi kept Sakura busy. "She really wanted to come," She lied. "But she could barely talk on the phone when I called her."
Sakura looked over at Fuu for confirmation. Fuu sighed, not at all happy with the plan, but never the less went along with it. "Why don't we try another store?"
Sakura nodded and started walking again. Yochi only hoped they could hold off Sakura a little longer.
Syaoran on the other hand, only had Mizu with him. The guys had also planned their own little bachelor party at Syaoran's apartment. Malus and Enkou were to set everything up, while Mizu took Syaoran out to get the tuxedoes. They found the store easily, but finding the right tux was another problem.
Syaoran walked out of the dressing room, in yet another tux, just like he had for the last twenty designs he'd tried on that afternoon. They all were good, but none of them seemed right.
Mizu shook his head at the most recent design Syaoran was wearing. He sighed. "It's good, but…"
"Not good enough." Syaoran finished.
Mizu looked at his master sympathetically. Now he knew what the bride went through. When trying to buy a dress. Thankfully, Tomoyo had already volunteered to make Sakura's bridal dress, as well as the rest of the bridesmaid's dresses.
"Why don't you go and ask the clerk for help?" Mizu suggested.
Syaoran nodded and went to the customer service desk. He rang the bell and waited, then turned to look at Mizu.
"May I help you?" The clerk asked.
Mizu's eyes widened, causing Syaoran whip around, only to find…
"Touya!?" He exclaimed.
Touya jumped back, in surprise and dropped the clothes he was carrying. "You! What are you doing her!?"
Syaoran smirked. "Getting ready for the wedding. What else?" He emphasized the word wedding, just to tease his future brother-in-law.
Much to his surprise, Touya smiled back. "Having trouble?"
Syaoran growled, not wanting to admit it, but reluctantly nodded.
Touya then bursts out laughing, dropping to the floor, red faced.
Syaoran pops a vein anime style. "Are you gonna help me or not!!?"
Touya go to his feet and whipped a tear from his eye. "Yeah, yeah. I'll help you. Hang on."
He took out a measure and held it up to Syaoran's arms, legs, and waist.
Syaoran frowned, but Touya simply walked to the back of the store and brought out one tux. "Here. This should work."
The future groom raised an eyebrow, skeptical of Touya's abilities and tastes.
Touya started to loose his patience. "Look, of you don't want to…"
"No, I'll try it." Syaoran smiled as he took the clothes and went to the changing room.
While he was gone, Mizu talked to Touya, telling him about the party. "So, do you wanna come?" He asked.
Touya smiled mischievously. "Yeah, I'll come." I'll give him a surprise he won't soon forget…
Finally, Syaoran came out and Mizu's mouth dropped. He smiled and clapped his hands. "Folks, we have a winner!"
Syaoran smiled and looked at himself in the mirror. "Not bad." He admitted.
Touya smiled. "Considering I'll end up wearing one too."
They made plans for the rest of the tuxedoes, and Touya even managed to get them a discount. Syaoran left, and Mizu followed him.
When Mizu was at the door, he turned and winked at Touya. "Seven o'clock."
Touya nodded. "I'll be there."
Sakura and he group finally found the centerpiece they were looking for. It was a heart with wings on the side. It reminded her of the ring Syaoran had given her, though it wasn't a heart, but a smaller version of her red pendant.
The girls went to the food court to reward themselves to a few snacks. "What about flowers?" Yochi asked.
Sakura bit into her egg roll and waved away the concern. "I can just use the Flower Card." She said.
Fuu frowned. "Won't that be a lot to clean up?"
Sakura thought for a minute. "Yeah, I guess so." Then she got an idea. "How about the Create Card!?"
Yochi smiled. "That would be perfect! We could use it for everything! The flowers, the tables, the chairs…"
"Exactly! And…" Sakura looked over at Yochi. "No clean up!"
Both girls shook hands, satisfied with their ideas, and started home.
Sakura got out of her car, a little pink Saturn, and joined Yochi and Fuu going into the house. When Sakura opened the door…
"Surprise!!!!" Everyone shouted.
"Hoe!!!" Sakura exclaimed. She looked around and saw decorations hanging all over the place. A large table with a pile of presents was in the middle of the living room.
Tomoyo ran up and hugged her best friend. "Surprise!!"
Sakura was speechless for a moment. "What is all of this?"
Meiling came up and grabbed her hand, pulling her inside, while Yochi closed the door. "It's your bachelorette party silly!"
Sakura smiled as the news finally sunk in. She hugged Meiling, and then everyone else too. "Arigatou! Oh, domo arigatou!"
Syaoran had been similarly surprise, with the bachelor party at his place. The guys planned a whole night of events. When Syaoran finally got into the swing of things, he even found time to chat with Touya, and not get into an argument!!
That's when things went overboard. At about nine o'clock, there was a knock at the door…
"Go answer it kid!" Touya said seriously, but friendly.
Syaoran got up, while Touya ran to pull the other guys towards him, informing them of the situation. They withheld laughs and watched as Syaoran opened the door.
What he saw made him almost fall backwards. A woman, dressed in a nurse's outfit, smiled at him. "Is there a Li Syaoran here?" She asked politely.
He frowned. "Yes, that's me. Who are you?"
She gently pushed him in, closing the door behind him. "My name's Kiki. And I'm here to cure all of your ills."
Syaoran's eyes widened, finally catching on. He turned to the back to see who was responsible. Everyone present pointed to Touya. Touya shrugged his shoulders and smiled. "You're only a bachelor for a while longer…enjoy it while it lasts."
Suddenly, the music started and "Kiki" pulled a fist full of Syaoran's shirt and pulled him to the center of the room…
Back at Tomoyo's house, Sakura was opening her presents. There were clothes, and other things, all of the sweet. Sakura was grateful and continued opening them. The next was a large light yellow box. She opening it and found the tiniest clothes. Baby clothes.
Her eyes widened and she looked up at her friends. Meiling giggled, along with Madison. "You never know." Meiling said.
Sakura blushed at the thought of having a child. The clothes were mostly unisex clothes, colored yellow, so they could be used for either a boy or a girl.
"Thank you everyone." She thanked. The rest of the night, they ate and talked about the wedding and such. All the while, Sakura looked out the window every now and then, wonder…What is Syaoran doing right now?
If only she knew…
Another garment of "Kiki's" was thrown into the air…landing on Syaoran's head. The boys were hooting and shouting, cheering on the exotic dancer. Syaoran seemed mesmerized by the whole ordeal. He could only wait till it would be Sakura that he saw with as little clothes on as "Kiki" did now.
"Kiki" pulled her clothes off of Syaoran and brought him to his feet, so he could dance with her. The boys whistled, throwing their fists into the air, as "Kiki" twirled around Syaoran.
Touya laughed and thought. Defiantly a night he won't soon forget.
A/N: I know this makes it sound like I've been to a bachelor party, but I haven't! I speculated what one would be like, as well as the bachelorette party. I am a dignified young lady and would never watch such a thing. I hope you enjoyed this part and the next one will be the last, not counting the epilogue. The wedding will be covered in detail, and then the epilogue will be about the honeymoon. No! I don't mean, the honeymoon, but the dinner and such. Please keep an eye out for it and my other series. And don't forget to read Cool Fire Bird's story Phoenix Light, from which these characters are based. Until next time!!!
