My Life As Sakura!

Chapter 4

" Syaoran?" I stood there, stunned. 'Hadn't he gone back to Hong Kong?' I asked myself. He was struggling to get the girls off him. There was an irritated expression on his face. All the girls were swooning all over him. I struggled hard not to laugh. The sight was just so funny. Syaoran was in a terrible mess, his hair was messier than before, his white tuxedo suit had so many creases and was a bit crumpled too.

In the end, I could not control my laughter any longer. Syaoran must have heard my laughter, when he turned around to face me. At that moment, a mixed feeling filled me. I saw a hint of smile form on his lips. I smiled, happy that he was there, in front of me. The girls that were either clinging onto Syaoran, or trying to, glared fiercely at me.

Out of a sudden, a blue figure rushed past me and clung right onto Syaoran, and, if I'm not mistaken, gave the poor little boy a kiss on the lips. (Pardon me if you think it's gross, but I think so too -_-)

"Get off me!" an extremely furious Syaoran practically, yelled at the girl dressed in blue. It was Cherie. I immediately felt sorry for Syaoran. Shaking my head, I said, "The gents is over there." I pointed towards the man's restroom.

"Thanks Sakura, I really feel like vomiting." Syaoran replied wearily and headed to the direction I had pointed to.

After Syaoran came out of the gents, the girls no longer crowded around him, but looked at him and whispered to each other.

"How.Why did you come back from Hong Kong? I thought your mother called you back for something important? It can't be because of this birthday party, can it?" I asked Syaoran when we were at the refreshment table. He looked smart wearing a tux.

"Er." there was a hesitation, then he said, "This party was just an excuse to come back."

"How did you know about this party?" I questioned him, curious.

"Jennifer's father was a business partner of the Li family. He invited me to this party and I just needed to persuade my mother a bit."

" I see." I smiled and said. I understood why he was here now, but the party was an excuse for what? I didn't get the chance to ask him that when music filled the place. I was enchanted by the music and closed my eyes, swaying slightly as in hypnosis.

When I opened my eyes slowly, there was a hand stretched out in front of me. "Care for a dance?" a warm familiar voice filled my ears. I looked up to greet the amber eyes of Syaoran. Smiling, I accepted and the next thing I knew, we were dancing across the hall, swiftly, with the other couples.
