Chapter 2-The Stages
Syaoran's eyes flew open and he opened his mouth. "It's...nothing," he said grinning like crazy. "Lucky me."
"Yeah. Lucky you," Rika whispered. "How about you, Eriol?" she asked.
Eriol just munched the sushi in his mouth. "Tasteless," he said.
"Tasteless?" Chiharu said confused. She had made sure that the sushis are very spicy. Now Eriol said that it's tasteless? She jumped when her cell phone rang. "Hello?"
"Chiharu, be careful. I felt Eriol's aura," Sakura said.
Chiharu nodded. "Okay. Thanks, Saku," she said and closed the phone. "Well, Eriol. Since you used a spell, you have to eat another," Chiharu said. "This time, we have to make sure that you won't use another one," she whispered. "Takashi, please pick a sushi and feed it to Eriol."
Takashi looked at her with a puzzled expression but did as Chiharu asked. "Hey, do you know that..."
"TAKASHI!"
Takashi shut up when he heard Chiharu yell at him. He chose a sushi and forced it into Eriol's mouth.
"HOT!!!" Eriol shouted when he chewed the sushi.
"Guys, I think we just found the sushi that Tomoyo made," Naoko said grinning. "She told me that she had put EXTRA wasabi into one of the sushis."
"Great," Eriol replied dryly after he drank two glasses of water.
"Now, ask your brothers to help you finish the sushis. Remember, there are nine more with wasabi," Yumi, a girl in Sakura's class, said with a giggle.
At first, none of the boys went forward but a glare from Syaoran and Eriol made them go and take one. After all the nine sushis were eaten, the rest went and fought to get a sushi.
"There. We finished it," Eriol said happily.
"It's delicious. Is there anymore?" Yukito asked Syaoran softly.
"I think there isn't enough," Syaoran said grinning. "They want more."
"Next time," Rika said and dismissed the idea. "Next stage. Syaoran, Eriol, are you thristy?"
Both the young men's eyes widened and shook their head furiously. "Well, too bad. You two have to drink anyways," Chiharu said evilly. "Give it to them."
Another two bodyguards took out two baby bottles and all the boys, except Syaoran and Eriol, burst out laughing. "What the-"
"That's right! You have to drink ALL the milk from these bottles...by sucking the cap like a baby," Ayako, another classmate, said and the girls burst out laughing like the guys.
"Do we have to?" Eriol asked with puppydog eyes.
"YES!" the whole room answered him making both of them sigh.
"Hurry up. We don't have all day," Chiharu said when she saw that they have no intention to move. Syoran and Eriol took the bottles and grumbled.
"I'll get them when we're done," Syaoran mumbled to Eriol who nodded in agreement.
"Well, bottoms up," Eriol said and began sucking the bottle. The whole room clapped and laughed at the sight of the two grooms sucking milk out of a bottle like a baby making the two men stop sucking immediately.
"The hole is too small," Syaoran complained.
"Just a few more minutes, Syaoran. Sakura and Tomoyo asked me to tape this down," Sonomi said holding Tomoyo's camcorder. Syaoran and Eriol grumbled and put the bottles into their mouths.
"That's enough," Naoko said with a giggle. The two boys put the bottles down, relieved. "Now, we have to get the red packets!"
"WHAT!" Syaoran and Eriol exclaimed. (Red packets are small envelope like paper that contains money. It is mostly used in China during Chinese New Year)
"That's right. We need...fifty," Rika said happily. "In other words, twenty- five from each of you."
"But there are only seventeen of you!" Eriol protested.
"Seventeen, plus Meiling, Xiefa, Fuutie, Fanren, Fiemei, Tooya, Sakura and Tomoyo," Sonomi pointed out. The two boys just sulked and took out twenty- five red packets each and gave it to one of the bodyguards.
"Good boy," Yumi said giggling and took all the red packets from the bodyguard. She counted them and divided it to all the rest.
"Now, the last test," Chiharu said. "We need you to tell us ten good characteristics about your wives."
Syaoran and Eriol gulped. "T-Ten?"
"That's right. Or do you want a hundred?" Rika asked mischeviously.
"Ten is enough," Syaoran said quickly. He and Eriol thought about it for a while.
"Can we say it in two words?" Eriol asked.
"Infinity Beauty," Syaoran stated before the girls could reply.
"That's right."
"NO!"
"Ten good things or you don't get to see your wives. They are very beautiful today," Naoko teased. "Syaoran, you first."
Syaoran groaned. "Well...she is...beautiful...talented...cute...well behaved...tidy...kind-hearted...funny...forgiving...and um...great body?" he said.
Everyone looked at him slyly when he said the last one. "Good, good. One more?" Chiharu said with a smile.
"Um..."
'Why don't you answer?' Eriol said telepathically.
'I can't think of another other than "Always late"' Syaoran replied.
'Then say the opposite' Eriol urged.
"Okay, okay. The last one is...always on time?" he said, not sure of himself.
The whole place was quite for a minute as they all knew that she was everything but punctual. "Okay," Chiharu said slowly. "Eriol, it's your turn."
"Um..."
'You have to be careful. Her mother is right here' Syaoran said.
'I know' Eriol replied. "Um...she's beatiful, talented, fast, smart, ambitious, well-behaved, kind, funny, helpful and um...patient?" he said.
"Okay. They passed. RUN!" Rika said and they ran to the room where Sakura and Tomoyo were in and slammed the door shut while all the guys chased them to the room but failed to get in.
"Come on! We don't have all day," Eriol shouted.
"Not until you and Syaoran say the three words 'I love you'," Rika said from inside the room. "You can say it in any language you want."
"Aishteru!" Eriol and Syaoran said together.
"To who?" Rika asked teasingly.
Syaoran and Eriol groaned. "Aishteru Ying Fa/Tomoyo!" they shouted.
Everyone cheered loudly and some of them began to hoot.
^_^ Tomoyo's Room ^_^
"Aishteru Ying Fa/Tomoyo!" Syaoran and Eriol shouted. The girls could hear hoots from the guys outside.
"You girls get ready. We are going to open the door," Ayako whispered. Sakura and Tomoyo nodded. They didn't see two figure moving outside their window until the figures barged into the room, picked up Tomoyo and Sakura, and jumped back out.
"HOE!!!!!!"
^_^ Outside Tomoyo's Room ^_^
"Great call, guys," Alex teased them.
Syaoran was about to reply when he heard something. "HOE!!!!!!"
"Sakura!" he shouted and charged into the room. When he got in, he saw two figures carrying Tomoyo and Sakura and jumped out of the window.
"Tomoyo!" Eriol shouted as he ran to the window. He looked around but saw no one. "No. Tomoyo..." Eriol said slumping down on the ground.
Syaoran's eyes flew open and he opened his mouth. "It's...nothing," he said grinning like crazy. "Lucky me."
"Yeah. Lucky you," Rika whispered. "How about you, Eriol?" she asked.
Eriol just munched the sushi in his mouth. "Tasteless," he said.
