Some of you are not reading my authors' notes. As I have said previously, my semestral break is over and I'm back to
school. I am a graduating student so I have a lot of things to do including my thesis. So, I ask all of you my beloved
readers to please wait patiently for the update of the fic because I still have to find time to write in between my school
works. Thank you for understanding.

It's His Turn
Friday is a day where all students are looking forward to but not for a particular person. She covered her head with her blanket. Never in her whole had she felt this nervous when she remembered that her date is tonight. Suddenly her blanket was pulled out, exposing her to the cold morning air. Her eyes opened quickly and sat up, just in time to face her brother who was carrying a tray of ice.
"It's good that you woke up or else I could have dumped these things on you." Touya smirked.
Sakura frowned at the thought when he did that to her before. She looked around the room. "Where's Kero?"
"In the backyard to prevent him from making a mess in our house." With that, her brother left the room.
Sakura sighed and went to the bathroom to prepare for school.
Fujitaka chuckled as he watched his daughter eat the toast in a hurry. She unusually took a long time to dress up so she only had a few more minutes to reach her school on time.
"Hmmm...I pity for your date. I wonder if you would eat like that later." Touya imagined his sister eating like a pig in a deluxe restaurant while Syaoran Li fainted at the sight. He tried to hide his laughter.
"Of course not! I will behave on my date just like a princess!" Sakura glared at her brother while chewing. "I'm done." She went upstairs to brush her teeth.
Fujitaka sighed at the seat Sakura just vacated. "I'm sure she'll make it through tonight."
"Don't worry dad, I'll pray to all the gods to make a miracle fore her."
Sakura hit him on his head a little hard and her brother almost choked his food. "Humph! I won't apologize you deserve it!" She gave a flying kiss to Fujitaka. "Bye dad!" When she got out of the house, her body froze to see Syaoran leaning on his car.
Syaoran smiled when he saw her. "Good morning! You're finally ready." He opened the door of the passenger side.
"W...Why did you wait for me? You will be late!" Sakura said still stood frozen.
"I don't care as long I'm with you. Besides, it will be much faster if I'll give you a ride." Syaoran then gestured his hand for her to come inside his car.
Sakura obeyed without any argument.
"Have a nice weekend!" Their teacher for their last period said as she stood up and went out of the room. Students quickly filed out to do what the teacher said.
Syaoran went towards Sakura but Tomoyo blocked him. "No, no, no Syaoran! We will be taking her home."
Rika went to Tomoyo's left side. "Yes, we will make her beautiful for tonight."
"But she already is!" Syaoran said trying to get through.
Sakura blushed. "Nani?!" She said softly.
Chiharu then went to Tomoyo's right side. "Prepare yourself Syaoran for tonight. You will just see her later!"
Syaoran frowned "Could I just get one kiss?" He said hopefully.
"NO!" The three girls chorused and pointed to the door. "LEAVE!"
"Ok! Ok!" Syaoran sighed then he tiptoed to see his date for tonight. "Bye, Sakura-chan. See you later!" He then left the room with Takashi who watched the whole scene with great interest.
Takashi patted the back of his companion. "Don't worry, you'll see your blushing bride later."
Sakura was totally enjoying herself from the pampering of the three girls to her. She sighed when she remembered her milk bath sprinkled with rose petals. Her skin now feels softer and smoother.
"That shampoo has quick effects on her hair." Rika said as she brushed the auburn locks which smelled strawberry. "Now, I can easily style your hair."
"Sakura, don't move!" Tomoyo whined when Sakura smiled. She continued putting the eye shadow when the smile disappeared.
Chiharu was concentrating on her masterpiece on Sakura's nails. She decided to do the french tip to make the nails look simple but also elegant just like her dress.
Fujitaka came in carrying a tray with cookies and juice. "Here's some snacks if you guys are hungry." He then observed the almost finished work of art of the three girls. "Wow, you guys are doing good!"
"Thank you Mr. Kinomoto!" Chiharu giggled.
"Oh well, I'm glad that Sakura has friends like you. I'll be downstairs if you need anything." Fujitaka went out of the room.
"He hasn't seen the finished product yet!" Tomoyo said while applying the lipstick.
Rika placed another hair pin. "We will shock her brother, father and of course her date!"
"I think we would be doing this more often." Rika said while waiting for the nails to dry.
"I am sooooo nervous already!" Sakura said.
Tomoyo faced. "Don't worry, you'll get used to it. Now, get out of your bathrobe and change!"
The doorbell rang exactly at 6 pm. Fujitaka was at the living room, studying for his lessons for tomorrow. He stood up and went to answer the door. When the door was open, it revealed Syaoran Li wearing a black suit and cradling a fresh bouquet of red roses.
"G...Good evening, sir. Um, I came here to pick up Sakura." Syaoran stood nervously.
Fujitaka smiled. "Calm down young man. I'm Sakura's father. Come in and make yourself comfortable, Sakura will be down here in a minute." He moved out of the way so Syaoran could enter. Fujitaka lead Syaoran to the living room. "Please sit down, Mr. Li it's a pleasure having you here."
Syaoran sat down. "Thank you, sir."
"Dad, my..." Touya stopped at the moment he saw Syaoran. "You!" He pointed at him.
"Treat our guest nicely. You have to learn to respect him. He is a LI in case you have forgotten, son." Fujitaka put Touya's hand down. "Syaoran, this is Touya. Sakura's brother."
Syaoran nodded. "Good evening to you also." He then noticed a Golden Retriever tugging the bottom of his pants. "He sure is a fat one." He patted the puppy and scratched his ears.
"Syaoran! You're here!" Chiharu said running down on the stairs. "Sakura will come down any moment." She winked at him.
"I'm sure she still looks like a kaijuu." Touya mumbled.
Everyone looked at him and glared.
"Um, hi!"
A small voice made their head turn to the direction to the source of the voice. Syaoran gasped at the sight before him. There she was standing before him wearing the dress and sandals that he bought for her. He only saw her in uniforms and never in his wildest dreams that Sakura has curves to make him drool. Her make-up was just right and it didn't cover her natural beauty. The auburn locks was done in french twist. On her ears are simple diamond earrings that she inherited from her deceased mother.
"Beautiful..." Syaoran finally had the courage to speak. He stepped closer towards her and gave the bouquet. "These is for you."
Sakura accepted it. "Thank you, Syaoran-kun."
Syaoran offered his hand. "Let's go, my dear and enjoy our dinner."
Sakura placed her hand on his and gave the roses to Tomoyo. "Could you place them in the vase for me?"
"Sure, no problem!" Tomoyo said as she cradled the bouquet.
The couple went to enjoy the rest of the evening.
"Hoe! This is an expensive place!" Sakura gasped as she observed the people eating and the elegant and intricate designs of the interior decorations of the plush restaurant.
Syaoran escorted her to the secluded table that was specially reserved for him. He pulled out a chair for her to sit down. Once she was seated, he sat down beside her. "This is one of the best restaurants that cooks Chinese food. I ate here when I came to Japan. I do think that you enjoyed eating one when I fed you a dumpling before."
"You don't have to do this, Syaoran." Sakura smiled. A waiter approached them and handed them the menus.
"My princess deserves this." He whispered to her and looked on the menu. "I'll order for the two of us, I know what are the best ones."
"You're the boss."
Syaoran smiled at her and told the waiter of his choices. They both handed back the menu. A comfortable silence came between them as they waited for their food. After a few minutes, the food came and they started eating. Most of the time, Syaoran explained what are the contents of each dish. When the table was cleared after they ate, a big cookie was placed in front of them.
Sakura looked at it curiously. "What's this?"
"A fortune cookie. Why don't you try opening it? It's fun." Syaoran said.
Sakura cracked the cookie in two and saw a note inside. "Today, will be the happiest day of your life." She smiled and then noticed a silver ring with three heart-shaped diamonds on top of it. She turned to face Syaoran.
"I love you. Will you be mine?" Syaoran said smiling at her.
"I'm scared Syaoran! I never had a boyfriend before, I'm scared of heartbreaks!" Sakura said turning away from him.
Syaoran took her hand. "Sakura, I may not be the perfect boyfriend but I will do my best. You will be treated like a princess and loved deeply by me. I will spare your heart from heartbreaks. Give me a chance, my love."
Sakura faced him again and stared at his eyes that shows love for her and honesty. She knows that the courting was a whirlwind but she felt that what she will say next is one of the best decisions she will make. "Syaoran, you made me fall in love with you. Yes, I am yours."
Syaoran stood up along Sakura and embraced her tightly. "Thank you. Come, let's celebrate the first night of our many years." He led her to the dance floor.
