Ch15
'Ami's many crushes, and a friend'
But someone got in the way and I ran into them. I saw it was Takeru and quickly got to my feet, and started to walk past him but he grabbed my arm. "Can't I have one dance?" I got him to let go of my arm and began to walk away. "Why?" He asked. I turned looked at him. "I have a boyfriend that I love very much," I yelled. It seemed like every guy in the place looking at me. Suddenly I felt a warm hand on my shoulder. I turned and saw Syaoran's eyes burning at Takeru. "You OK?" he asked. I said yes and pulled his hand to follow me. He reluctantly followed. But Takeru had to open his big mouth. "Hey Syaoran that little tart has a boyfriend, but it couldn't have been to long. Though I'm sure you'll get a chance with her. Every other guy will."
Syaoran broke from my grasp and charged towards the laughing young man. Out of instinct I called upon Shield to hold Syaoran back from hurting himself. At risk of everyone seeing I had float bring him back to me. He was in front of me. I put my arms around him and whispered in his ear. "Syaoran, I hate using my magic in this manner on you. You are my protector, and I love you but this is too petty he's not worth it. Please ignore him." he looked at me and smiled, I let him go no longer afraid he'd do something stupid. "Come on" I led him to Tomoyo and Eriol. Ami and Naoko were also there. Eriol gave me a weird look; "did you use it again?"
"Yes, but Syaoran was about to kill Takeru he tried to make me dance with him when I wouldn't he was saying things about me. "My Takeru Isihida?" A voice boomed from behind me. I turned and saw Mako-chan behind me. I sweat dropped. "Yes" She stormed away. I put my head in my hands getting angry because everything 's going bad tonight Takeru, hit's on me then insults me, Mako-chan's probably mad at me, And although she's my friend Ami's really getting on my nerves with how stares at Syaoran. Syaoran's stroking my back to try to calm me down but I know he can sense that that's not going to happen any time soon.
I look up with tears of frustration brimming my eyes. I look directly at Ami who's doing what I knew she would be, staring at Syaoran. "Ami" I spoke softly. "Why don't you just talk to him. He's right here, (I said pointing to Syaoran) He doesn't bite." The harshness in my tome surprised even me and I saw Ami get up and leave. I felt horrible so I got up and quickly ran after her. She was sitting at a table alone. I carefully approached her not wanting her to run off. I sat across from her. "Ami?" I whispered she sniffled but didn't answer. "I'm so sorry." She was still silent. "Yell at me" I yelled. "I know you want to do something to embarrass me as much as I just did you. I'm so sorry." She at least looked up at me "Sakura could he ever like me?" she questioned in a pitiful tone. "Syaoran?" she just nodded. "The two of you can be friends but I'm afraid that's it." She gave me a hurt look, like I had just run over her little puppy. "I- I'm sorry Ami. You are one of my best friends I didn't mean to take this all out on you." I paused for a moment. "I'll do anything you want within reason for the rest of the night as long as it's decent and doesn't involve Mei, Kidokawa who I've seen somewhere and Takeru Ishida." "Is there anything you want me to do?" she looked at me "Just talk"
Ami: I've known you since the beginning of 7th grade but we've never spent any time together. What happened earlier if I may inquire?
Sakura: With Takeru?
Ami: Yes.
Sakura: Well It has to do with that creep Mako came with she can do so much better. Well he grabbed my arm and asked me to dance. But I didn't want to so I backed away from him. He asked me why I wouldn't dance with him the truth was I didn't want him to try to kiss me again. But I told him I had a boyfriend and I loved him very much. It seemed like every guy in the room was staring at me. Then Syaoran came up to me and asked if everything was OK. He started to leave. (I lied) But Takeru opened his mouth. He said "Hey Syaoran the little tart has a boyfriend, but it couldn't have been to long. Though I'm sure you'll get a chance with her. Every other guy will." I had to hold him back. But he managed to get out of my grip and was about to kill Takeru but soon realized it was a stupid idea, and that he wasn't with it. He's protective of me and always will be no matter whom he's with because we've known each other for so long, same thing with Eriol, he's more like a father figure, and Tomoyo will always be there for me.
Ami: That's sweet it's really good you guys know each other so well.
Sakura: Yeah, Ami I'm so sorry, I'm very stretched right now and I was looking for a way to take it out. And you were just annoying because you were just staring at him and not even trying to talk to him. But I'm so sorry.
Ami: It's Ok.
Sakura: Would you like to dance with him?
Ami: (Blushes a bright pink) I could never ask him.
Sakura: Ami I can ask him for you.
Ami: But he'll say no.
Sakura: I can guarantee he won't (As if on cue a slow song played. I got up and grabbed Ami by the hand and dragged her back to where we sat before.) Syaoran Li this is Ami Mizuno a dear friend of mine. Would you dance with her?
Ami: You don't have to (She interjected)
Syaoran: (went up to Ami and took her hand leading her out onto the floor. And put his hands on the young girl's waist. You could fit a third person in between them but at least he was scowling he had an indifferent expression on his face.) 'Sakura you better dance with me the rest of the night.' He told her telepathically.
Sakura: I wouldn't have it any other way (I thought back)
I felt so bad about what I did to Ami I wish there were a way I could make it up to her. I was brought of my self-loathing by a familiar presence. I looked up and saw hi above me. "YUKI-KUN!" I screamed loudly, and jumped up and hugged him. He extended his hand to me and offered me a dance. I took his hand and noticed a lot of eyes were on us. "What are you doing here?" I asked. "Touya kick you out," I said with a smile. I just came here to relax some of my other friend's hang out here. "How bout' you Sakura-san?" He asked cheerfully. "I'm here with my boyfriend and a bunch of my friends" I blushed. "Who's your boyfriend?" He whispered. "Will you promise not to tell Touya?" he agreed I made him pinky swear. He did then I whispered in his ear. "Syaoran-kun" I blushed again. "My other half always knew you 2 belonged together." I blushed even more knowing whom he was talking about. The song ended and we were standing there.
"You want to go back to your friends?" he asked sweetly. I just shook my head and frowned. There was a table right there so we sat at it and he asked me what was the matter I told him I felt horrible about what I said to Ami, and the stuff that happened with Takeru, and I even told him about my family Christmas party. He was shocked to say the least. He gave me a hug and let me cry on his shoulder. I saw him gesture to someone and then I saw Syaoran, Eriol, and Tomoyo around us. They were all greeting each other while I just sat there in Yuki's arms now only sniffling. Syaoran sat next to me and I eventually hugged him and just let the peace of his embrace take over. He lifted my chin and wiped away my tears. And kissed my forehead. Eriol, Tomoyo, and Yuki were talking when I sat up. I wiped away the remaining tears, and got to my feet. "Let's go see the others, Yuki, I want you to meet some of my other friends I grabbed Yuki's hand and ran towards the table we were at previously. Ami and Mako looked at me with worry and interest in their eyes. "You guys this is an acquaintance of mine Yukito Tsukishiro, he's friends with my brother whom many of you have never met. Anyway Yuki this is Mizuno Ami, Kino Makoto, Aino Minako, and her boyfriend Furuhata Lasen, Tsukino Usagi, and her boyfriend Chiba Mamoru, you might remember Yanagisawa Naoko, Sasaki Rika, Mihara Chiheru and her boyfriend Yamazki Takashi. I know you remember Daidouji Tomoyo, and her new fiancée Hiiragizawa Eriol, and of coarse Li Syaoran. "Wow Tomoyo-san I'm so happy for you. You too Sakura" He added in a loud whisper.
"I'm sure you must be sick of hanging around with a bunch of middle school kids." I sighed. He said he should get going. And asked me to tell father that he'll stop by tomorrow before he goes back to school, and that he also had a few Christmas presents for me from Touya, and him. I gave him a hug then said good bye to him. We all sat back at the table I felt a lot better getting what's been bothering me out but I still felt horrible about what I did to Ami, and Syaoran. I looked at Ami who was now staring at me. "Ami" I spoke softly. "I'm so sorry I didn't mean my out burst earlier. I'm so sorry." Tears trickled down my cheeks. I looked at Syaoran with the same determination. "Syaoran, I'm sorry for embarrassing you and Ami. I really didn't mean it." I looked at my hands that were in my lap. Ami came up to me and gave me a big hug. "It's really Ok, I don't like him that way anymore." "I know he loves another" she whispered in my ear.
Another slow song came on and Syaoran extended his hand to me. I gladly accepted he walked me out onto the middle of the dance floor then put his arms around my waist and pulled me close. I put my arms around his neck and rested my head on his shoulder. I just let the melody over take me and was absorbed by his warmth. But too soon the slow song ended and the beat quickened. On our way back to our friends a bunch of girls asked him to dance but he declined all of them, some guys came up to me and asked me but I declined as politely as I could. We got to the table but the only people there were Makoto, Ami and Rika. I talked to them asked where everyone else was, but they just said they were around. Ami can I talk to you for a minute?" She agreed we went for a little walk around the building and talked for a little bit.
Sakura: I want to tell you something. You know how you like, or liked Syaoran?
Ami: Yes (She nodded)
Sakura: Well so does every girl in this building with the exception of Usa, Tomoyo, Chiheru, Minako and Rika. So him and his girlfriend were going to come out with their relationship.
Ami: OK
Sakura: Well I wanted you to know I didn't want you to feel hurt. I know I would have if I cared about someone and they didn't feel the same.
Ami: Sakura you're so sweet to worry about me. But I really don't have those feelings for Syaoran anymore, but what about you, you two seem so close I know you must care for each other on some level.
Sakura: (Sweat drops) Uhh- uh can I show you something I got for Christmas?
Ami: Sure, I'd love to see it.
Sakura: I've only been able to show Tomoyo, but soon I can show everyone. It's very special to me.
(Take off my locket and handed it to her)
Ami: It's incredibly beautiful, the detail is exquisite, A cherry blossom and a wolf. (Looks at me oddly but doesn't say anything, opens it and looks at the picture) Who are they? They look young.
Sakura: It's Syaoran and I when we were 9
Ami: I see, (She continued to look over the peace. And her eyes widened when she looked at the back) I see
Sakura: What? Isn't it beautiful? Are you mad at me? I'm so sorry.
Ami: It's probably the sweetest thing I've ever read on a piece of jewelry, the whole things very sweet and very beautiful. Why would I be mad at you? And why are you sorry?
Sakura: I was hoping you weren't mad at me about not telling you I was his girlfriend, no body knows except Tomoyo, Eriol, Yuki, and now you. And I'm sorry for not telling you before.
Ami: It's Ok Sakura-chan I understand. You two were meant to be we all can see the way you look at each other. I'm so happy for you. Besides there is someone else I think is cute.
Sakura: (Sweat dropped)
Ami: Uh-huh, Actually it is.
Sakura: We'll hand out sometime later and I'll go over all the issues with him. For one thing he has someone in his life. I had to come to terms with it when I was young. I thought I was in love with him, but I realized with Syaoran's help that it was just brotherly love. (Blush bright red.) I still remember what he said "There will be someone out there who will love you and only you."
Ami: That's so sweet. Who's he in love with if I may ask? Are they serious?
Sakura: They go to college together and live together. I'll tell you all about it later. Thanks again and I'm really sorry. But I have to find Syaoran.
Well that's the end of Ch 15 I hope you liked it. Let me know what you think? Ch 16 will be up soon. So stay tuned.
