Natsu Chapter 2 Followthrough

"Wei?"

"Is everything set?"

"Yes sir."

-

"Syaoran?" said Sakura groggily as she woke up.

She slowly surveyed the dorm room as she searched for the figure of her fiancé.

His familiar form was nowhere to be found as she completed her inspection of the room.

The door slowly creaked open to reveal Syaoran backing into the room, holding a tray in front of him. The tray was laden with a sumptuous breakfast fit for a queen.

"Morning," he said as he laid the tray on the bed.

"Breakfast in bed?" asked Sakura with an upturned eyebrow. "What's the occasion?"

"Nothing special," said Syaoran as he laid the napkin across her lap. "Just wanted you to start the day off right."

"Your too good to me," said Sakura as she picked up the fork and began to eat the carefully prepared meal.

"No I'm not," he said as he leaned in to give her a peck on the cheek. "I'll be back later, just leave the tray on the bed. I'll clean it up when I get back."

"Where are you going?"

"You'll find out later," said Syaoran as he stood to leave. "Now eat," and on those two words he left the room to finish the last of the surprises.

-

With her packing done, all that Sakura could do was sit on the couch and watch TV while she waited for Syaoran to come back. She still had no clue as to where he went, but she was too excited to think about much.

She was so engrossed in her ruminations about where they would be going that she never heard the elevator doors open and Syaoran stepping out then walking up behind the couch. She was brought out of her thoughts by the sudden appearance of cherry blossoms in front of her.

She turned to see her smiling sorcerer standing behind the couch, while holding a handful of perfectly formed sakura flowers in his hand.

"They're beautiful," said Sakura with a brilliant smile adorning her face as she took the flowers into her hands.

"You're more beautiful," said Syaoran as he pulled her to her feet. "Now, we have to get going if we are to catch our flight."

"Flight?"

"Yeah," he said as they entered the elevator. "And don't worry, your bags have already been put on board."

They spent the rest of the time on the elevator and then the time during the car ride in thoughtful silence. Sakura spent the time trying to figure out where Syaoran would take her and he spent the time thinking how happy this trip would make her and about how beautiful she would look when she found out and gave him that angelic smile that made his heart do somersaults.

She didn't realize that they had arrived at the airport until the car came to a stop. She looked around and realized that she wasn't at any of the commercial terminals; instead she was outside one of the private hangars.

Sakura stepped out of the car as Syaoran opened the door for her. He took her hand and led her towards one of the larger Lear jets.

"What are we doing here?" asked Sakura as they neared the jet.

"This is our flight."

"That is our flight?" asked Sakura incredulously.

"Yup."

"But, how did you…?"

"It belongs to the clan so I simply borrowed it."

"You didn't have to go to all that trouble for me," said Sakura as she turned to Syaoran.

"Its no trouble at all," said Syaoran as he bent down and placed a gentle kiss on her lips.

"Now c'mon, the plane is suppose to take off in a few minutes," said Syaoran as he got the two of them onto the plane.

Syaoran gave Chang a nod as they passed by him, headed towards the main cabin. They entered the cabin and saw their friends seated in leather-upholstered seats.

"It's about time you guys showed up," said Syaohu as they sat down in their seats. Syaoran gave him an annoyed look and settled into his seat next to Sakura's

"Ladies and gentlemen, please buckle up, we are about to take off," said Chang over the intercom.

The plane rumbled to life as they began to taxi down to the runway. As they reached the end and turned onto the runway, the engines began to whine louder as power increased and they began to move faster. With the runway nearing an end, the plane lifted off the ground and began to ascend to the skies.

"Where are we going?" asked Sakura after they had been in the air a few minutes.

"You'll see," was the simple response from a grinning Syaoran.

"Ming can you tell me?" asked Sakura as she turned from her little wolf after giving a cute little pout.

"Sorry, but I'm as in the dark about all of this as you are," said Ming as she gave her boyfriend a hard stare.

Jia-luo simply grinned sheepishly as he cowered under the intense stare of his strong willed girlfriend.

"Yuan?" questioned Sakura as she turned to her next friend.

The headshake she got in return was a distinct negative. And the response was the same as she turned to Qiou. From the withering looks the guys were getting from their girlfriends was enough to tell Sakura that the only ones who were privy to the intricacies of Syaoran's plans had been the men.

The silence reined over much of the flight until finally the girls decided that they had been angry long enough and decided to resume normal relations with their men.

The guys were delighted at the renewed life in their relationships, where only a moment ago an empty void had dominated.

Eventually they arrived at their destination and Chang announced that they would be starting to descend soon.

The girls were all anxiously excited over their destination as they drew closer to the tarmac of the airport runway.

"Sakura, put this on," said Syaoran as he handed her a blindfold.

"Why?" asked a curious Sakura as she took the cloth.

"Because I don't want the surprise spoiled until we get to our final destination."

"Oh all right," said Sakura as she relented to the pleading look on Syaoran's face.

She took the cloth and blindfolded herself. The plane soon landed with a slight screech of the landing gear tires. Slowly the plane taxied until it came to a stop at the entrance of another private hangar.

She was about to stand up when she found herself being swept up in the strong arms and green aura of her little wolf. He held her tight to his chest as he carried her down the steps to the asphalt of the airport.

He carried her over to a waiting limo, careful not to bump into the numerous people rushing around moving luggage from one location to another. They neared the open door of the limo with the rest of their friends following closely behind.

The others boarded other cars as Syaoran carefully lowered his delicate flower to the leather seats of the limo. Sakura immediately missed the warmth of Syaoran's embrace as soon as he let go of her. However, it was to be a short-lived absence, for he had his arms around her waist in a tight hug as fast as he could sit down.

The doors closed and the limo began on its way to the surprise. The other vehicles followed closely behind as the procession of dark colored luxury vehicles left the privacy of the restricted grounds of the hangar.

Syaoran reached behind Sakura and untied the cloth and placed it on the seat. He turned Sakura's head and gave her a soft kiss. Sakura opened her eyes to look into the brilliant set of amber orbs that made her heart melt.

"Are we there yet?" asked Sakura after a few moments of intent gazing.

"Not yet, but we'll be there soon," said Syaoran as her settled into a comfortable position next to his angel.

The widows were opaque, so that the outside could not be seen and the only source of light was the faint luminescence of the car's internal lights.

Since it was obvious that she wasn't to see the outside, Sakura settled for the simple pleasure of some quiet time, alone with her fiancé.

 The silence was only broken by the soft hum of the engine as the limo drove towards it destination. The gentle thrum gave the environment a warm comfortable feel. Syaoran's arms made her feel protected and the steady beating of his heart told her that it was real.

The ride was not very long and soon they were slowing down and finally coming to a stop. Syaoran opened the door and helped her out of the limo.

As Sakura's eyes were adjusting to the light, the first thing to catch her attention was the sounds. People were speaking an all too familiar tongue, Japanese.

Her head snapped up when she suddenly heard her name being called out from a short ways off. The excited "Sakura-chan" could have only come from one mouth.

To be continued…
