Chapter Twelve: Dates
"I don't know how we're going to do it. They're both so incredibly dense when it comes to this type of thing," Tomoyo said with a worried look as they sat at their lunch table.
"I think I know something we can do, but I'm not too sure if it will work," Eriol said as he leaned in closely and whispered what he had in mind.
"That's brilliant honey! Let's go over to his place and see what they're up to okay?" Tomoyo said as she dropped some cash onto the table and picked up her purse. Eriol nodded as they walked to their car hand in hand.
~*S+S*~
"WHAT?!" Screamed a very angry Syaoran.
"Where's the fire?" Sakura asked as she dashed into the room at top speed. There in his office sat a girl with long black hair with buns on either side of her head and seemed very happy.
"Hello. Do I know you?" the woman asked.
"Um. I don't think so," Sakura said slowly.
"Meiling, what are you doing here?" Syaoran asked, his face full of anger.
"You know why I'm here! I just told you," Meiling said as she sighed and turned back to Syaoran.
"Okay Syaoran, I'll let you get back to this. I'll tell you when Mei gets home okay?" Sakura said as she exited.
"I thought I got rid of you with my sisters when I left home," Syaoran said as he sat back down in chair sighing.
"How nice. But No! Nope dear cousin of mine! I'm back from Japan and here to help!" Meiling said happily. "Oh, and your sisters will be coming to live here also. Your mother wants it this way." Meiling smirked while he paled.
"Meiling I will murder you!!" Syaoran screamed at the top of his lungs.
"Whoa! Calm down! Firstly, it wasn't even my idea. And secondly, look on the bright side of this entire situation dear cousin. You're just going to be living with 6 girls now. Or does that girl live here too? To make it 7?" Meiling asked as she smirked and he blushed.
"She's just a nanny for Mei and a FRIEND of mine. That's all," Syaoran said still quite red.
"Uh huh. You sure about that? Then why do you let her call you by your first name and why do you blush whenever she's even mentioned?" Meiling asked as he shut up. "I thought so, so don't even try with me. Your favorite cousin knows you the best out of all people."
"Favorite cousin my ass. Anyways. When will everyone be arriving?" Syaoran asked rather miserably.
"Well, considering that it's only about. 12:30 p.m. right now, they should be here within an hour or less," Meiling said simply.
"Having Siefa, Fuutie, Fanren and Feimei, along with you, my mother and Mei all in one house is going to be a living hell," Syaoran mumbled.
"Daddy!" Mei cried as she ran into the office, giving her father a hug. "Auntie Meiling?"
"Hello Mei. How are you?" Meiling asked her niece as she was greeted with a hug.
"I'm great Auntie Meiling. Have you met Sakura-chan yet? She's really nice and kind and caring and whole bunch of other stuffs," Mei said rapidly as she jumped up and down.
"No not yet honey. I will as soon as I get unpacked. I'll be staying here for a while," Meiling explained laughing at that behavior of her niece as Mei cried out in joy as the two went upstairs to one of the guest rooms so Meiling could unpack.
"Well, you know she's home right?" Sakura asked as she peeked into the doorway.
"Yeah," Syaoran said blushing. 'Why is it whenever I'm around her I have all of these strange feelings and it suddenly gets so warm. Meiling couldn't be right could she? I mean I almost asked her out last night too! Oh Kami. What is happening to me?'
"Who was that?" Sakura asked a little curious. 'Please don't let that have been one of his old girlfriends. Whoa. Where did that one come from?'
"Oh. That's my cousin, Meiling. We named Mei after her. It also turns out, that my mother wants her, along with all four of my sisters to move in with me. Since she's my mother, I would never argue with her. So I just have to go along with it. I'm guessing that my mother is going to either come with them or come later one once she has tied up a few loose ends," Syaoran explained.
"You don't sound too excited," Sakura said as she sat down.
"I'm not. I assure you. My entire family's life purpose is to find me a wife and make sure I have a family. Well, I know I have a family, but they want me to get a wife now. So they'll probably be bringing in girls for me to see. It was just like that when before I got married too. Of course they didn't approve of Tonya, but being as stubborn as I am, I didn't listen," Syaoran said. Sakura nodded as she responded and they continued chatting for a while.
~*In the hall*~
"You see Auntie Meiling. He likes her and she likes him!" Mei whispered as they listened.
"I know. I can tell. He speaks so freely with her. He rarely does that with anyone outside of the family. This happens once in a blue moon. Do they talk like this all of the time?" Meiling asked. Mei nodded her head. 'Well cousin, I've found you the perfect match. Now only if I knew how to get you two together.'
"You can help us set them up if you like Auntie," Mei suggested as if reading her mind.
"Us?" Meiling asked.
"Yes. Sakura-chan's best friend, Tomoyo-chan and her husband Eriol Hiiragizawa. Daddy says he knows him from England," Mei explained.
"Yes. I remember Eriol. I'll have to meet these friends soon if anything. We need to act fast," Meiling said.
-Ding Dong-
(Ignore my bell; I know it sounds rather corny. And just to let you know, Tomoyo is 5 months pregnant with her baby now I know it's a rush, but I have my reasons ;).)
"I got it!" Meiling said as she walked towards the door and opened it.
"Hi! Is Li-kun home?" Tomoyo asked smiling while holding Eriol's hand.
"Meiling?" Eriol said amazed.
"The one and only!" Meiling said.
"You two know each other?" Tomoyo asked confused.
"We're friends from a long time ago. How rude of me! Come in," Meiling said as she stepped aside so they could walk in. They took off their jackets, hung them up and sat down.
"I'm kind of lost," Tomoyo said sitting down on the sofa with Eriol. 'Don't make her a girlfriend or else my plan won't work!'
"Well, Meiling is Syaoran's cousin. When Syaoran was in England, where I met him, Meiling was there also. They were engaged at the time, but obviously got the engagement cut off. I haven't seen Meiling here in years. Meiling this is my wife, Tomoyo," Eriol explained.
"It's a pleasure to meet you. I'm really sorry I couldn't make it to the wedding. Syaoran and I had to deal with some business," Meiling said as she shook Tomoyo's hand.
"Nice to meet you too. Is Syaoran here? We have a plan to put in order," Tomoyo asked.
"Hey. Are you that girl's friend Mei was telling me about?" Meiling asked.
"Sakura? Yeah, she's one of our closest friends. She lives with us," Eriol replied.
"Mei was telling me about how you have a plan to get her and my cousin together. You've got to let me help! She seems like such a good person, and she's changed him for the better. Plus it's so obvious they like each other," Meiling said.
"Sure. We'll fill you in about that at dinner if you want. We were going to invite Syaoran and Mei over to our place," Tomoyo said. Meiling nodded as the three spoke about everything that they had in mind until Sakura and Syaoran came out of the office.
"Hey! When did you guys get here?" Sakura asked walking over to her two friends.
"Just a little while ago. We were waiting for you two to come out of his office," Tomoyo said smiling.
"I don't think we've met before. My name's Sakura Kinomoto," Sakura said as she introduced herself.
"Like we said in his office no we haven't. I'm Meiling Cheung. Syaoran's most favorite cousin of all time!" Meiling said grinning while she shook Sakura's hand laughing. 'She's got a great personality. So everything should be fine with her and my cousin. He's seemed to warm up to her. A lot.'
"Hey, why don't you all come over to our place for dinner tonight?" Tomoyo offered.
"I don't think I have anything planned. What about you Syaoran?" Meiling asked as he shook his head.
"Where's Mei?" Sakura asked as she looked around.
"Right here," Mei said as she came in with a plate of cookies.
"Do you have a lot of homework tonight? If you don't, want to come over to our place for dinner?" Tomoyo said.
"Actually I have a project to do. So I think I'll stay home today," Mei said as she walked up the stairs to her room. (Okay, I know I put her as seven and everything. but let's just say she goes to one of those gifted schools since she's REALLY smart okay? T_T)
"Well it looks like it's only going to be us adults tonight," Meiling said. "Oh, is it alright if my husband comes along too?"
"Your husband is here?" Syaoran asked shocked.
"You couldn't honestly expect me to keep him in Japan could you?" Meiling asked as she shot him a glare.
"Are there any kids I should know about too?" Syaoran asked lazily.
"Nope! You're not an uncle. Yet," Meiling said as Syaoran stood there, eyes wide as Meiling took Tomoyo and Sakura away into another room so they could talk.
"What are you, your wife and my cousin up to Eriol?" Syaoran demanded as he continuously glared at Eriol.
"Up to something? I have no idea what you are speaking of my cute little descendant," Eriol said as he smirked.
"DON'T CALL ME THAT!" Syaoran yelled in response.
~*Where the girls are*~
"So, how well do you know my cousin Kinomoto?" Meiling asked.
"Call me Sakura," she said.
"As long as you call me Meiling. But anyways, back to my question," Meiling said.
"Pretty well. Why?" Sakura asked as dense as ever. Meiling was about to say something but Tomoyo stopped her by poking her in the ribs. They both smiled and shook their heads, while Sakura just dismissed it.
"Wait a second. Aren't Siefa, and her sisters coming today too?" Sakura asked.
"Yeah they are," Meiling answered.
"Maybe we should just book a restaurant," Tomoyo said chuckling.
"How about we eat here?" Meiling offered.
"I guess that would be okay. We'd just have to make a stop home to get changed and that type of thing," Tomoyo said.
"So, what are you lovely ladies talking about?" Eriol asked as he and Syaoran walked in.
"Well, since there are going to be 10 of us, we've decided we're going to eat here instead," Meiling said.
"Dinner with my sisters. Great," Syaoran said sarcastically.
-Ding Dong-
"Oh! That's probably Hiiro and your sisters!" Meiling said happily as she ran to the door.
"It's been a half hour and she's going crazy because he's here," Syaoran mumbled.
"Hey come on! When I get married, I'm probably going to be like that too, so be quiet," Sakura said as she smiled and walked ahead of him while he blushed bright red, but shook his head as if to get rid of it.
"Hiiro!" They all heard Meiling cry as she jumped on someone and give them a hug.
"Hello Meiling. So where's this famous cousin of yours I've been hearing so much about? We've only met once," Hiiro asked smiling.
"I'll show you him in a minute. I just have to go see the rest of my cousins," Meiling said as she hugged the Li sisters.
"Where is she Siefa? We wanna see her!!" An excited Fanren cried out looking throughout the room.
"Hello Sakura. Tomoyo, Eriol. How are you all?" Siefa asked as she walked up to Sakura and hugged her.
"There she is!!" Shouted Feimei. All of the sisters went on with hugging and pinching Sakura's cheeks. Siefa shook her head at them first, but then shrugged and soon joined in.
"Syaoran. Help. Me," Sakura mumbled so he could hear. Syaoran just smirked and waited for a little while until he decided she had enough.
"Okay you guys! Hands off the staff," Syaoran said as he peeled each of his sisters off of her. "So much fun huh?" Syaoran whispered to her as she giggled.
"Staff? Isn't she your girlfriend Xiao Lang?" A confused Fuutie asked.
"No, no, no. I'm not his girlfriend. We're just really good friends and I take care of Mei," Sakura explained extremely red in the face.
"Oh!" Feimei, Fuutie and Fanren said.
"Where's mother?" Syaoran asked still red, but wanting to get off of the topic.
"Oh, she says she'll be here within an hour. So have a room prepared for her. She also wants to talk to you about something that has to do with the Clan," Meiling answered.
"Oh no," Syaoran grumbled. 'Probably something about me needing to get a replacement for Tonya. After all Mei needs a female figure in her life. She has said the same speech a million times before. Why doesn't she just give up?'
"Would you all like to have dinner with us?" Eriol said. All of the sisters looked shocked to see him, for they knew who he was. Syaoran was pretty sure they wanted to show their proper respects to him.
"Sakura, I think there's something in the fridge Mei had for you. Come I'll show it to you," Syaoran said as he took her hand and led her to the kitchen. Once they were sure they were out of earshot, they began to speak.
"Clow Reed-san! It really is you! Little brother and mother had told us about how there was a half reincarnation, which was a friend of the Card Mistress, and the other half was her father. Is it really you?" Feimei asked as all the sisters bowed to him.
"Yes. And nothing to worry about. Tomoyo knows all about me and the cards themselves. So do not be afraid to speak of magic in front of her. I know you're wondering you the Mistress is, but she will reveal herself in good time. I know when the time will come, but you shall not and are not to know. Be patient. Because of this matter, much trouble will be caused. So I would not be anticipating this if I were you," was Eriol's reply. They all started at him as they allowed his words to sink in. They all nodded as Syaoran and Sakura came back.
"Well, I came here for a main purpose. Eriol, I'm guessing if you can make it, you will be coming to my party with your wife. I'll get Sakura- chan to fill you in about it later. My sisters all have dates, which is of no surprise for me, since they constantly have boyfriends. And then, I will be arriving with my husband along with Meiling. You don't have to worry about Mei since she's still a little kid," Siefa began. (I did put that she was married right? If not, she is okay?)
Siefa was soon interrupted by many squeals of delight from all of the girls.
"The only thing is I just don't know who the two of you will be attending with," Siefa added. Sakura and Syaoran sweat dropped as they had completely forgotten about it, and hadn't been looking for dates at all.
"Actually. um. I kind of. didn't get one yet," Sakura said scratching the back of her head.
"Me neither," Syaoran said. He knew not to anger his sisters. It rarely happened, but when it did, it wasn't a pretty sight.
"Alright then! You two will go together!" Siefa exclaimed while Sakura and Syaoran were just plain out shocked.
"Whoa! That can't be happening. He's my boss!" Sakura cried out.
"She's my employee!" Syaoran added.
"So what? You two will just go, dance, laugh, have a good time and such. You are friends after all aren't you?" Siefa reasoned while the two remained quiet, meaning they had nothing to argue with so agreed to it. 'Not to mention fall in love if us women have any say in it whatsoever.'
"Fine. But you guys better get unpacked. We'll be eating dinner at 6:00 tonight," Syaoran said as he went back into his office, but stopped as Sakura spoke.
"I heard there's this carnival in town and I haven't been to one in ages! We should really go," Sakura said. Almost everyone agreed to it. Keyword = almost.
"Nah. I don't think so. I think I'll stay home," Syaoran said.
"Oh come on! It will be fun!" Sakura pleaded with him. He looked at her and immediately his face brightened and sighed. He nodded his head and went to his office and shut the door.
'Hmm. she can make him do things he doesn't really want to do. That hasn't happened before. This can work out better than I thought. But we'll have to work fast. If what Eriol is saying is true. things might not even be able to work for the two,' Feimei thought to herself. The sisters soon proceeded up the stairs and into their new rooms to get unpacked, as they spoke of plan with Tomoyo, while Eriol kept Sakura busy.
So now it turned out that all of them had a date for the grand party the Siefa was holding. What might happen for S+S at the party? What is this big news Siefa is going to share with everyone? When will S+S confess?
To be honest I don't really know either. But I'll try and figure it out soon so the fic won't suck okay? I hope you all like it and please R+R ok? Thanks! Ja ne!

"Hello Meiling. So where's this famous cousin of yours I've been hearing so much about? We've only met once," Hiiro asked smiling.
"I'll show you him in a minute. I just have to go see the rest of my cousins," Meiling said as she hugged the Li sisters.
"Where is she Siefa? We wanna see her!!" An excited Fanren cried out looking throughout the room.
"Hello Sakura. Tomoyo, Eriol. How are you all?" Siefa asked as she walked up to Sakura and hugged her.
"There she is!!" Shouted Feimei. All of the sisters went on with hugging and pinching Sakura's cheeks. Siefa shook her head at them first, but then shrugged and soon joined in.
"Syaoran. Help. Me," Sakura mumbled so he could hear. Syaoran just smirked and waited for a little while until he decided she had enough.
"Okay you guys! Hands off the staff," Syaoran said as he peeled each of his sisters off of her. "So much fun huh?" Syaoran whispered to her as she giggled.
"Staff? Isn't she your girlfriend Xiao Lang?" A confused Fuutie asked.
"No, no, no. I'm not his girlfriend. We're just really good friends and I take care of Mei," Sakura explained extremely red in the face.
"Oh!" Feimei, Fuutie and Fanren said.
"Where's mother?" Syaoran asked still red, but wanting to get off of the topic.
"Oh, she says she'll be here within an hour. So have a room prepared for her. She also wants to talk to you about something that has to do with the Clan," Meiling answered.
"Oh no," Syaoran grumbled. 'Probably something about me needing to get a replacement for Tonya. After all Mei needs a female figure in her life. She has said the same speech a million times before. Why doesn't she just give up?'
"Would you all like to have dinner with us?" Eriol said. All of the sisters looked shocked to see him, for they knew who he was. Syaoran was pretty sure they wanted to show their proper respects to him.
"Sakura, I think there's something in the fridge Mei had for you. Come I'll show it to you," Syaoran said as he took her hand and led her to the kitchen. Once they were sure they were out of earshot, they began to speak.
"Clow Reed-san! It really is you! Little brother and mother had told us about how there was a half reincarnation, which was a friend of the Card Mistress, and the other half was her father. Is it really you?" Feimei asked as all the sisters bowed to him.
"Yes. And nothing to worry about. Tomoyo knows all about me and the cards themselves. So do not be afraid to speak of magic in front of her. I know you're wondering you the Mistress is, but she will reveal herself in good time. I know when the time will come, but you shall not and are not to know. Be patient. Because of this matter, much trouble will be caused. So I would not be anticipating this if I were you," was Eriol's reply. They all started at him as they allowed his words to sink in. They all nodded as Syaoran and Sakura came back.
"Well, I came here for a main purpose. Eriol, I'm guessing if you can make it, you will be coming to my party with your wife. I'll get Sakura- chan to fill you in about it later. My sisters all have dates, which is of no surprise for me, since they constantly have boyfriends. And then, I will be arriving with my husband along with Meiling. You don't have to worry about Mei since she's still a little kid," Siefa began. (I did put that she was married right? If not, she is okay?)
Siefa was soon interrupted by many squeals of delight from all of the girls.
"The only thing is I just don't know who the two of you will be attending with," Siefa added. Sakura and Syaoran sweat dropped as they had completely forgotten about it, and hadn't been looking for dates at all.
"Actually. um. I kind of. didn't get one yet," Sakura said scratching the back of her head.
"Me neither," Syaoran said. He knew not to anger his sisters. It rarely happened, but when it did, it wasn't a pretty sight.
"Alright then! You two will go together!" Siefa exclaimed while Sakura and Syaoran were just plain out shocked.
"Whoa! That can't be happening. He's my boss!" Sakura cried out.
"She's my employee!" Syaoran added.
"So what? You two will just go, dance, laugh, have a good time and such. You are friends after all aren't you?" Siefa reasoned while the two remained quiet, meaning they had nothing to argue with so agreed to it. 'Not to mention fall in love if us women have any say in it whatsoever.'
"Fine. But you guys better get unpacked. We'll be eating dinner at 6:00 tonight," Syaoran said as he went back into his office, but stopped as Sakura spoke.
"I heard there's this carnival in town and I haven't been to one in ages! We should really go," Sakura said. Almost everyone agreed to it. Keyword = almost.
"Nah. I don't think so. I think I'll stay home," Syaoran said.
"Oh come on! It will be fun!" Sakura pleaded with him. He looked at her and immediately his face brightened and sighed. He nodded his head and went to his office and shut the door.
'Hmm. she can make him do things he doesn't really want to do. That hasn't happened before. This can work out better than I thought. But we'll have to work fast. If what Eriol is saying is true. things might not even be able to work for the two,' Feimei thought to herself. The sisters soon proceeded up the stairs and into their new rooms to get unpacked, as they spoke of plan with Tomoyo, while Eriol kept Sakura busy.
So now it turned out that all of them had a date for the grand party the Siefa was holding. What might happen for S+S at the party? What is this big news Siefa is going to share with everyone? When will S+S confess?
To be honest I don't really know either. But I'll try and figure it out soon so the fic won't suck okay? I hope you all like it and please R+R ok? Thanks! Ja ne!
