"Sure. Pick us up around. . .11 am?" *Tomoyo opens door*
"Ok. Bye! See you tomorrow!" *Kai walks out*
"Ja!" *Tomoyo closes door* 'So many things happening in one day. . .Better call the gang and Eriol.' She walks over to the phone and starts to make calls. . .

Chapter 4: The Unexpected Performance
~*~ The Next Morning (9 am) ~*~
Tomoyo was making a new outfit in the room silently while Sakura started to wake up. (Sonomi has a separate room than the girls if I didn't say that already or I said something different, OOPS ^_^)
"Good morning Sakura-chan. You're just in time." She said excitedly.
"Good morning to you too, and just in time for what?"
"You're just in time to try my new outfit I made for you!" Tomoyo squealed.
"It's not. . .revealing. . .is it?"
"Nope. Here." She hands her the clothes and Sakura goes in the bathroom. She comes out in a half-sleeve white shirt with a sparkly cherry blossom in the middle and baggy beige pants embroidered in pink.
"This is great Tomoyo! Thanks!"
"Anything for my Saku-chan!" Sakura sweat dropped at the response. "Oh yea, Kai is coming to pick us up at 11 for lunch."
"Alright. That means we have about 2 hours. Want to watch a movie?"
"Sure. Let's look in the cupboard under the TV for the movies." Sakura went to the cupboard and looked through their choices.
"How about. . .Mr. Deeds?" She suggested.
"Ok." They both went to the couch in front of the TV and popped in the DVD into the DVD player. Before they watched it, Tomoyo set an alarm 10 minutes before 11 so they would be ready when he arrived.
(Time passes.)
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGG!!!!!
Tomoyo turned off the alarm quickly so she wouldn't miss the ending. Sakura squealed, "KAWAII!!!!!!!" with Tomoyo at the end when the couple kissed.
"I have to go change before he comes. Be right back!" Tomoyo disappeared into the bathroom and changed. Sakura looked in the mirror making sure she didn't look THAT bad. (But we all know Saku is soooooooo KAWAII!!! But not more KAWAII than SYAO!!!! *cough* ehehe. . .)
DING DONG
"Coming!" Sakura yelled. She opened the door and let Kai in. They both sat on the couch waiting for Tomoyo. "So. . .Where are you going to take us?"
"Just a little café that has a karaoke. (Forgot how to spell it! Ehehe. . .) Not some big fancy restaurant. Hope you don't mind."
"It's fine. I'm glad we aren't going to some place fancy. They're always busy." At that moment, Tomoyo came out in a T-shirt that was navy blue with a skirt to match.
"Shall we go?" He asked holding out both arms.
"We shall." Both girls said in unison, and then they started to giggle while he chuckled. The three of them went out not even expecting what was to come.
~*~The Sunshine Karaoke Café~*~
The three went inside not knowing a certain couple was there also. The cheerful waitress came to take their orders. (I always seem to have a waiter or waitress in my stories. Heeheehee!)
"May I take your orders?" She asked pleasantly.
"I'll have a cup of jasmine tea and a blueberry muffin please." Kai replied.
"Me too." Sakura stated.
"Me three." Tomoyo agreed.
"So that's 3 jasmine teas and 3 blueberry muffins?" The three nodded. "Ok. Coming right up!" And walked off.
Suddenly the lights dimmed and someone spoke through the speakers. "Welcome everyone to Sunshine Karoke Café! We will now begin the Karoke part of our name! To participate, please go up to the counter and submit your name and the song you'd like to sing. We'll be waiting!" Immediately, Tomoyo started pestering Sakura to sing.
"Sakura! You have such a great voice! You should sing!"
"No Tomoyo. I don't want to. And we ALL know you are the best singer in the WHOLE wide world!"
"Please? Just one itty bitty song? Pwease?" Tomoyo used the LETHAL puppy dog face with the trembling bottom lip sticking out. Kai chuckled and joined in.
"Pwease? Pwetty pwease?" He also did the ultimate puppy face.
"Fine! One song got it?!"
"Ok! I can tape my KAWAII Saku-chan in action! Yes!" She whipped out her handy dandy camera and started to record. The other two sweat dropped and thought at the same time, 'She'll never change. . .' Then Sakura got up to sign herself up.
~*~Meanwhile. . .~*~
Syaoran and Mai walked in hand in hand. Syaoran had been getting second thoughts ever since Sakura came to Hong Kong. 'I'm so confused. Do I love Sakura? Or Mai? Who?' He had been asking that over and over in his head but received no answer. He sighed while Mai was dragging him to a table where they could have a nice view of the people singing.
"Isn't this great Syaoran? Aren't you having fun?" Mai asked.
"Yea. . .Fun. . ." He sighed again.
"What's wrong Little Wolf?" Syaoran turned to her but instead of the brunette with sparkly blue eyes, he saw a honey haired girl with glistening green pools. He shook his head and blinked. She returned back to normal.
"Nothing. . .Nothing. . ." He replied. 'Weird. . .Just try not to think about HER Syaoran.'
'But you can't.'
'Yes I can.'
'Can't.'
'Can.'
'Can't.'
'Can.'
'Can't.'
'Can.'
'QUIET!' A third voice boomed.
"We have a singer! Give it up for Sakura Kinomoto!" Everyone clapped. Mai started trying to get Syaoran's attention so he could see Sakura sing.
"Syaoran! Sakura's gonna sing!" His head immediately snapped up. 'Sakura?' And sure enough she started to come on stage and sing. 'Still the angel I fell in love with. . .' and sighed in contentment. (He sighs a lot! ^_^)
'Here it goes.' Sakura thought while looking around herself. To her surprise, HE was sitting right in front of her, which made her eyes widen. He gazed right back into her marvelous sea green pools.
'God! She still drives me crazy. Sakura. . .' The music began. (This is Michelle Branch's song "Goodbye to You." I know it's used often, but hey! It works.)
Of all the things I believed in
I just want to get it over with
Tears form behind my eyes
But I do not cry
Counting the days that pass me by
I've been searching down deep in my soul
Words that I'm hearin' are starting to get old
Feels like I'm startin' all over again
The last 3 years were just pretend
And I said
'I can't believe he forgot! And I thought he loved me. . .' She wipes a crystal clear tear that just escaped her watery dark emerald green eyes.
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything that I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing I tried to hold on to
'I am SICK and TIRED of being USED!!!!' She thought angrily.
I used to get lost in your eyes
And it seems that I can't live a day without you
Closin' my eyes
And you will chase my thoughts away
To a place where I am blinded by the light
But it's not right
'I can't think about him anymore. . .he's DEAD to me. . .'
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything that I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold onto
'When I get home, I have to take out EVERYTHING that reminds me of him.'
OoOh. . .
It hurts to want everything and nothing at the same time
I want what yours and I want what's mine
I want you but I'm not giving in this time
'I want my heart back. . .my broken, shattered heart. . .'
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything that I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold onto
The one thing that I tried to hold onto
'I'll miss you. . .'
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything that I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold onto
'Goodbye my Little Wolf. . .Goodbye. . .'
OoOh. . .
And when the stars fall I will fly away
You're my shooting star
'Goodbye. . .'
