Chapter 4-Masquerade on Saturday?

Last Time

"Daidouji, are you allowed to have the masquerade at your house?" asked Xiao Lang.

"Yeah, I am. Hey do you guys want to come? It's on Saturday at 6:00pm," Tomoyo asked Sakura and Eriol.

"I would love to Miss Daidouji," answered Eriol.

"Me too," agreed Sakura. "Where is your house?"

"It's on Sora Road, and it has the number 34 on it," Tomoyo said.

"Hey, isn't 'Sora' Japanese for sky?" asked Eriol.

"Yeah it's. The community over there is mainly Japanese," inform Tomoyo.

"Oh I see," said Eriol.

"I'll make sure I'll get there. My dad will let me," said Sakura.

Chapter 5- The Masquerade (part 1)

"Oh great, Miss She's-All-That is coming. Why did you have to invite them?" retorted Xiao Lang.

"That is so low Xiao Lang. You know they are new and they need to meet people," said Tomoyo, "this is the perfect event to do that,"

"Whatever," said Xiao Lang. The bell rang and they inside the school. The rest of the week was pretty calm and there weren't many fights between Sakura and Xiao Lang because they didn't talk to each other.

*~*~*Saturday-An Hour Before the Masquerade*~*~*

Sakura had her hair done up in a beautiful bun. She had her personal maid do her hair. She would wear her favourite kimono and her mask, which would cover the top part of her face. The mask also was tied around her head so it wouldn't fall off. It took 45 minutes more to get dressed.

"Sakura, hurry-up or you'll be late for your little party," said Fujitaka. She only had 15 minute left.

"Okay father," yelled Sakura. She had just finished putting her shoes on. She ran down stairs and kissed her father bye. He complimented her and then she left.

*~*~*At the Masquerade*~*~*

Sakura had just arrived in time. When she got there it was 5:59. She walked through the open doors of the Daidouji mansion with her mask on. Someone asked her for her name to prove she was allowed in the masquerade. When she was allowed in she saw beautiful decorations everywhere, it was like heaven. Just then she bumped into someone. She was about to fall but someone had caught her wrist before she fell. When she looked up she saw it was a young man with amber hair. She couldn't see his eyes because a mask covered it, but she could tell he was handsome.

Xiao Lang was going to yell at the person who bumped into him. He looked at the person and noticed it was a girl. In fact she was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen. She was wearing a kimono that had cherry blossoms all over the silk material. He couldn't believe any one could look that beautiful. "Sorry," apologized Sakura (the girl).

"I should be sorry…well may I have this dance?" asked Xiao Lang.

"Yes you may," smiled Sakura. He led her toward the dance floor. He put his arms around her waist and she put hers around his neck, and then started dancing. Even though they had their arms were around each other there was still a huge gap between them. Xiao Lang could tell she was uncomfortable, so he brought her closer. She looked his face and smiled. Xiao Lang also smiled back with that rare smile of his. Sakura lay her head on his should while swaying to the music. As they danced through many songs they didn't seem to get tired. They talked, laughed and their bodies seemed to get closer until they were right against one another. Xiao Lang felt this very unknown feeling inside him and Sakura felt this warm and safe feeling.

*~*~*Hours Later*~*~*

"Well ladies and gentlemen it's the time you've been waiting for. It's time to take off your masks and reveal yourselves," said a cheery announcer.

"Wait," said Sakura, "before we take off our masks, promise that we'll be together and that you'll…you'll kiss me."

"Um…er…ok," stammered Xiao Lang. He slowly leaned down and Sakura pulled him closer to her. They were so close they could feel each other's breaths on their faces. Sakura pulled him closer which closed the gap completely. The kiss got deeper, but unfortunately they had to break away because of the lack of air. Even though the kiss was over they held each other close. Slowly they both slipped off their masks and…
