Chapter 4: A Night to Remember
~*~*~*~*~
Sakura and Tomoyo were sitting on the Kinomotos' back porch, sipping ice tea, and enjoying the calm weather. The emerald-eyed girl was feeling rather content at the moment. Something was making her feel as if she was on cloud nine. She felt like getting ready for something. Something special.
"Come on Tomoyo! We have to do some shopping!" cried out Sakura.
Her amethyst -eyed friend was slightly confused with the sudden outburst. However, she simply shrugged it off. With Sakura, there was always another adventure just around the corner.
~*~(Meanwhile, at Syaoran's house)~*~
Syaoran was lying on the couch, thinking of nothing in particular, when some sort of feeling came over him like a tidal wave. He got up right away.
'I have a lot of work to do', he thought to himself. He went to the phone and dialled his girlfriend's number. It rang two times before Sakura picked up.
"Hello?" came Sakura's sweet voice from the other end.
"Hey Sakura, it's me," began Syaoran. "Do you want to go out for dinner tonight?"
"Sure I do," replied Sakura. "In fact, I was just thinking of the same thing! Hey, do you want to come to my house afterwards?"
"I'd love to. Would you like to go to that new restaurant opening down town?" asked Syaoran.
Sakura was speechless for a moment.
"I-Isn't that kind of fancy and expensive?" she stuttered.
"Only the best for my angel," Syaoran answered. "We should do these kinds of things since we're together."
Sakura thought everything over for a moment.
"All right. but only if you let me pay for half of the meal!" she said confidently.
Syaoran smiled to himself.
'Always thinking about others,' he thought to himself.
"Would it be okay if I picked you up at six thirty?"
"That'd be great!"
"Bye Sakura. I love you."
"See you later, Syaoran. I love you too."
Syaoran hung up the phone and started looking for the number of that new place in town.
~*~(Sakura's house)~*~
"Oh my gosh!" cried out Sakura.
Tomoyo ran in the kitchen, where her friend was standing.
"What's up?" asked Tomoyo curiously.
"Syaoran is taking me to that new place down town!" Sakura shrieked.
"You mean that fancy and luxurious restaurant?" asked Tomoyo with stars in her eyes.
"The same one!" replied Sakura.
The two girls started to scream, and jump up and down. Sakura was the first one to calm down.
"Come on! We still have to go shopping, and now I need to find the perfect dress!"
~*~(That night)~*~
It was six twenty, and Sakura was sitting with her father, and patiently waiting for Syaoran to come. She and Tomoyo spent a couple of hours finding the right dress. Just as she was about to get really frustrated, something lightly tickled her senses. Casually following her feelings, she was led to a small dress shop. She went in, and there it was the perfect dress.
The colour was a beautiful shade of dark blue. The top of the dress had sleeves that were off her shoulders. The dress flowed down to her ankles, swaying from left to right with her every move. Sakura never felt more comfortable, and she was eagerly waiting for her boyfriend's arrival.
The sound of the doorbell brought her back to reality.
"Sakura! Syaoran is here!" Touya called out from the front door.
"Have fun, honey," said Fujitaka quietly to his daughter with a certain gleam in his sparkling eyes.
Sakura kissed her father on the cheek.
"Thanks Dad, she began. "I'm sure I will."
Fujitaka gave his pride and joy a smile.
'My daughter's growing up,' he thought to herself.
"Tell me all about it," Fujitaka added.
"Certainly, Dad", Sakura said with a giggle, as she returned the smile.
Sakura made her way to the front door to tell her brother good-bye.
"Enjoy yourself, Sakura," Touya said to his sister.
"Thank you, Touya," Sakura replied feeling a bit surprised because he didn't tease her at all.
Finally, Sakura turned to Syaoran. For the second time that day, she was speechless. She thought he looked gorgeous. He was wearing a navy suit that complemented her dress perfectly. His hair was neatly combed, and his amber eyes shown in the moonlight. His chest pocket held a small white flower. In his hands he held a box that contained a fully blossomed white rose.
As Syaoran pinned on the corsage on his beloved, one million and one thoughts started to run through his head. He had never seen someone as lovely. Everything from her head to toe was elegant. Her tresses were set in a stylish hairdo. He noticed her subtle use of make-up, which brought out her delicate features. However, what she was wearing was the most stunning of all. She looked so beautiful in her dress. It looked as if the outfit was made for her.
"Are you all ready to go, my gorgeous princess?" he asked, offering his arm.
"I've never been more set, my good-looking prince," quipped Sakura with a smile as she took is arm.
The couple could of taken Syaoran's car, but too much time would have been wasted with the downtown traffic. So Sakura (being the most powerful sorceress in the world) teleported herself, and Syaoran to the restaurant.
~*~(At the restaurant)~*~
Syaoran and Sakura got a private table for two, which was away from the crowd. The restaurant was playing soft music, and every now and then couples would dance to the slow melody. The two card captors were studying the menus.
"So what are you getting?" asked Syaoran.
"The chow mien looks tasty to me," answered Sakura.
"Then I'll get the dim sum," said the amber-eyed boy.
They gave their orders to the waiter, and when they received their dishes, they were pleased with the outcome. They agreed that the price was worth it.
"So how's your chow mien?" questioned Syaoran.
"Find out for yourself," said Sakura coyly.
Before he could ask what she meant, he found her holding up her fork in front of his mouth. On the utensil, held a bite-sized amount of noodles. Syaoran raised his eyebrows at Sakura, but tried her offered food anyway.
"Hey, it's pretty good," he complimented. "Your turn!"
He picked up some of his dim sum on his fork, and placed it in front of his girlfriend's lips. With a smile, Sakura quickly tried some of his food before Syaoran could have had the chance to smear any of the sauce on her face.
"My, aren't we in a hurry," observed Syaoran.
"I didn't want you to make a mess out of my face," Sakura replied.
"Why would I ever do a thing like that?" asked Syaoran innocently. "By the way, you look so beautiful tonight, I'd never dream about changing any of your features."
Sakura blushed at the compliment.
Well, you don't look so bad yourself," she said, bashfully.
As soon as the couple finished their entire meal, Sakura was looking longingly at the dance floor. Syaoran chuckled to himself as he realized his girlfriend was too shy to ask him to dance. The male card captor swiftly stood up and extended his arm out to his beloved.
"May I have this dance?" he asked, even though both of them knew he didn't have too.
"I'd love to," said Sakura, slipping her hand into his.
Syaoran led his beloved to the dance floor, and spun her around once before sweeping her into his arms. The dark-haired boy placed his arms around Sakura's waist. The emerald-eyed girl wrapped her arms around Syaoran' neck, and leaned her head on his shoulder. The couple swayed to the music, not loosening the grip on each other.
Finally, the restaurant's waiters were telling everyone that it was time to go. Syaoran groaned and rested his chin on the top of Sakura's head.
"It's too soon for this night to end," he murmured.
Sakura leaned back to look at Syaoran.
"Who said anything has to end right away?" asked Sakura with a smirk. "You're coming to my house, remember?"
Syaoran' eyes lit up with the thought of spending even more time with the angel he was holding in his arms.
"So what are we waiting for?" questioned Syaoran eagerly.
They made sure no one was looking, and Sakura teleported themselves out of the restaurant.
~*~(Sakura's house)~*~
All was quiet when Sakura and Syaoran got to her house. Fujitaka and to do some work at the university, and Touya had just left for a late movie with Yukito. Kero was already asleep as his snores could faintly be heard from upstairs. The couple made their way to the living room. Sakura dimmed the lights, and lit the candles by using her magic. Then she put on some soft music.
Syaoran smiled at himself as he watched his dearly loved accomplish tasks by using her inherited magic. Sure, he had magic running through his veins too. Nevertheless, his ability of using supernatural powers didn't flourish as fast as hers did in such a short period of time. He couldn't have been more proud of her talent.
The male card captor's thoughts were disturbed once his girlfriend started to get comfortable in his arms. Once he was back down to earth, he wrapped his arms around Sakura.
"You seemed to be deep in thought," Sakura observed.
"Oh, I was just thinking about this new magic," he began. "It's a weird responsibility to have of something that I took part in creating, and yet know nothing about. Sometimes I wonder what it would be like without these new cards in my life."
The auburn-haired girl reflected upon her boyfriend's words. A life without magic? The thought never occurred to her. Even though she had been doing magic of seven out of seventeen years, her powers had become something as natural as breathing for her. Then a thought suddenly occurred to her.
"Syaoran, do you regret having the responsibility of capturing these new cards?" Sakura asked uncertainly.
The amber-eyed boy chuckled, and slipped his hand into Sakura's hand.
"I have to admit, capturing these new cards can be tricky, and it's another responsibility to add on the already long list. Even so, I'm very thankful for the opportunity to do this," replied Syaoran.
"Why's that?" questioned Sakura.
"Because these cards were created by our love. If that isn't special, I don't know what is," answered Syaoran as he gave Sakura's hand a squeeze.
The couple didn't say anything for a while. They were lost in their respective train of thought. Sakura was listening to the sound of her boyfriend's heartbeat, while Syaoran was absentmindedly running his fingers through his girlfriend's silky hair. Suddenly, Sakura sat straight up.
"What's wrong?" asked Syaoran in concern.
"I was just thinking about that clue the Seduce Card gave us!" cried out Sakura.
"Are you talking about how we were suppose to act differently for a day?" asked Syaoran.
"Didn't you have some kind of sensation come over you this morning?" began Sakura. "That's a sign of acting differently!"
"That does make sense," mulled over Syaoran. "And come to think of it, both of us are still okay."
"More than okay," retorted Sakura. "Personally, I thought this night was 'pure bliss'. Do those words ring a bell?"
"Sure they do!" said Syaoran, happily. "Now all we have to do is kiss, and the next card is ours!"
Sakura bent down her head in shyness as a blush began to colour her cheeks. Kissing had never been so hard before, but now she was in a different setting. The full moon outside the window was letting it's moonbeams dance were ever it's light could reach. The candles were still burning softy, giving the quiet room another kind glow. The only sounds which could be heard was the low ticking of the clock, and the inhales and exhales of the two people sitting on the couch.
Syaoran noticed the bashfulness that was displayed on his angel. He knew why she was acting the way she was. The surroundings were getting to him, too. Nevertheless, he had a job to do, and he was looking forward for a goodnight kiss.
First Syaoran used his index finger to lift up Sakura's chin. Once amber met emerald, Syaoran leaned closer to his girlfriend. Sakura's eyes closed on their own accord. She then felt Syaoran' lips brush against hers. It wasn't a kiss; he was just teasing her. Sakura didn't want to play any games, so she leaned forward, trying to capture Syaoran' lips. However, Syaoran was having too much fun. He leaned back, waiting for Sakura's eyes to open once more.
Sakura's eyes opened again, to find and amuse Syaoran looking at her with a grin. There was no way someone could stay angry at such a face. If she wanted something to be done, she had to do it herself. The female card captor wrapped her arms around her boyfriend. Then she leaned forward and gave him a heartfelt kiss.
Syaoran couldn't ask for a better kiss. He could feel her love for him a she pulled him closer. All of her feelings, passion, and affection were bonded in that one profound kiss. He knew suspending the kiss would make it much more desirable. Finally, the couple had to part for air.
"Wow." was all Syaoran could say.
Before Sakura could reply, a card entered the living room, and began to take form. A young man in his early twenties emerged. He was wearing a formal black tuxedo complete with a bow tie. Tall and handsome, his dark hair framed his face perfectly. His brown eyes sparkled in the candlelight.
"Good evening," said the card in a deep voice. "I am Romance. I hope the two of you enjoyed this night. I did my best for things to go smoothly."
"We had a great time, thank you," said Sakura.
"Yeah, thanks for everything," added Syaoran. "I've never had such an incredible night."
"The pleasure was all mind," replied Romance. "Before you capture me, I must give you these words: ABSENCE MAY MAKE THE HEART GROW FONDER
YET, THIS COUPLE CAN'T WAIT ANY LONGER
A SECRET IS WHAT THEIR REUNION MUST BE
SO YOU MUST SIT BACK, WAIT AND NOT SEE
Sakura got up, and sealed the Romance Card. The spirit took its traditional shape as a rectangle. Another card was captured. However, there was something about the new clue that was bothering her.
"It looks as if the cards have a plan to bring Takashi and Chiharu back together," said Syaoran as he walked behind Sakura and wrapped his arms around her waist.
Sakura closed her eyes, and took in his scent of autumn and sandalwood. "But we have to leave them alone," she replied. "Or else they wouldn't be able to get their feeling out in the open."
"By the sound of the clue, it seems that this card will be coming to us instead of us going to it," stated Syaoran assertively.
Sakura laughed. "So I guess the cards are giving their creators a break."
"And I guess that calls it a night," observed Syaoran. "I think I should head home now."
Sakura walked her boyfriend to the door. With one last kiss, Syaoran walked away in the moonlight. Sakura closed the door, and let out a sigh. She had an amazing boyfriend, and it was magic that deserved the thanks.
~*~*~*~*~
To be continued.
A/N: Writing is so much fun! I hope you guys liked this chapter. Syaoran and Sakura are such a cute couple to write about. I'm thinking of making the next chapter my last, because I don't have any more ideas for new cards. However, I am opened minded for suggestions. Create the name of the card, and I'll write about it! Do you want me to write chapters on Naoko and Rika too? Maybe I'll write about them, because Naoko has nobody while Rika has the biggest crush on Mr. Terada. Don't worry; I won't do a coupling of the second pair, even though I might make a reference to them. Please review my story, or else I wouldn't know if anyone read it or not. Look for chapter five next week!
