Sakura Kinomoto, a girl of 22 entered her New York City apartment building. She had moved here from Japan as a little girl. Growing up in America gave her a lot more opportunities. She had become a secretary. Her newest job, in the well known World Trade Center. Everything had gone well for her first day. She walked up the stairs to her apartment. As she came upon the 3rd floor she smelled smoke. She quickly covered her mouth and ran back down the stairs. As she exited the building, a rather handsome police officer caught her arm.
"Miss, are you a resident in this building?" he asked. Sakura looked into his deep amber eyes.
"Yes. What's going on?" she asked. Staring. She didn't realize that he too was staring into her eyes.
"There was some kind of explosion inside. Can I have your name?"
"Sakura Kinomoto. And you are.."
"Oops. Sorry, forgot to introduce myself, Detective Syaoran Li. What do you know about this fire Miss Kinomoto?"
"Call me Sakura please." He nodded and took out his pad. Scribbling down as she explained, "Well, I came home, and started to walk upstairs. I smelled smoke and ran outside, where I was caught by you."
"OK. Thank you." She was disappointed when he walked away. But a few minutes later he slipped her a note. She opened it and read:
'Sakura,
I get off in 5 minutes. Would you like to get some dinner with me? If yes, I'll meet you at my car. It's the green X-Terra.
-Syaoran'
She smiled at the note. Finally, a way hot guy had asked her to dinner at least one that she liked. She looked around for his car. She saw it parked across the street and walked over to it. Exactly 5 minutes later Syaoran walked towards the car.
"I guess this is yes?" He asked smiling at her.
"Yea." She replied getting into his car. "So where are we going?"
"Over between the Hard Rock Café and Carnage Hall, there's this place called the Brooklyn Diner (True, I've eaten there too!)." He replied driving off.
-Dinner-
"So, Syaoran, why exactly did you ask me to dinner tonight?" Sakura asked, biting into her burger.
"What? Is it wrong to ask a beautiful lady out for some food?" he answered, making her blush. "Actually, I haven't been on a date in years."
"Really? Why?"
"Dating and I just don't go hand in hand. Something always goes wrong."
"Nope."
"What?"
"Nothing's gone wrong yet." Sakura said smiling brightly at him.
"I wasn't sure whether or not to call this a date."
"Why not? I think you're handsome. And you've already called me lovely." This time he blushed.
"Come on," he stood up and paid the bill. He walked out to his car, Sakura following right behind him.
"Where are we going?"
"You'll see." They drove for a while until he found a good spot to park in. They both got out of the car.
"Central Park!"
"Yea, come on, there's something I want to show you." He took her hands and pulled her down the path. Both laughing all the way. "Close your eyes." He said, putting his hand over her eyes. He positioned her in the right spot. "OK, look." He took his hands away from her eyes.
She looked out upon a beautiful little pond full of Water Lilies and fall leaves. "Oh Syaoran, it's beautiful."
They talked for a little while longer and then he took her to a hotel. He walked her up to her room, since her building was half burned. " Can I see you again?" he asked shyly.
"Of course."
"When?"
"Tomorrow? I don't have to work."
"Neither do I. I'll meet you at 8 AM in the lobby."
"OK. Bye Syaoran." She went into her room and closed the door. She leaned her back against it and slid to the floor. She giggled in delight. "I like him!" She quickly ran to the phone and dialed her cousin Tomoyo's apartment, 8 blocks from her own.
