Chapter 4-A surprise

The song ended at last and Sakura gladly removed her hands from Syaoran's grasp and rubbed it against her jeans as if she was a five-year-old not wanting to get cooties. "DON'T ever do that to ME again," she hissed before turning her attention to the other dancers.

Syaoran just smirked, leaving the rest wonder what they were talking about. "Um...Sakura-sensei, how did we do?" Brian asked, trying to break the silence. Sakura smiled.

"You guys were wonderful," she said beaming. "I can't believe that you guys had never danced it before."

"Of course. We DO have the world's greatest teacher," Jason said innocently.

"Jason, what did I say about exaggeration?" Sakura said tapping her foot. "you know how I hate it."

"You hate being praised?" Syaoran said pretending to be shocked. Sakura just rolled her eyes.

"That is not called a praise. Besides, I don't have such a big ego like you," Sakura shot back.

"Ouch. That hurts," Syaoran said before he burst into laughter.

Sakura frowned. "What's so funny?" she asked.

"You!" Syaoran managed to gasp in between his laughter. "You're the first person I had met that desn't like a praise," he explained when he got his laughter under control. "You must have a problem. No one hated being praised."

Sakura was fumming, hearing his speech. "What's wrong with hating being praised? Just because you hadn't met any, doesn't mean that there isn't any," she shot back, glaring at him.

"Kawaii! A lover's quarrel!"

Sakura knew that shriek anywhere. "Tomoyo," she said, paling as she turned around to the door.

"Hai. You are so kawaii, Sakura!" Tomoyo shrieked with her trusty camcorder taping every moment.

"Hoe...what are you doing here, Tomoyo? Is it time to go already?"

"Nope. I got a job here to be the make-up person," Tomoyo said happily.

"Hoe..."

Syaoran looked at Tomoyo and smiled. "It's nice to have such a beautiful and mature woman working here," he said and kissed her hand.

Tomoyo laughed nervously. "Actually, Yume and Mei Lin had got jobs here too..."

"What?!" Syaoran shouted. "Mei Lin?!"

"That's right. Is there a problem, dear cousin?"

"Iie. Because I must be dreaming," Syaoran muttered as he spotted Mei Lin. He brightenedwhen he saw a certain silver-eyed girl behind Mei Lin. "Why, hello, madame," he said bowing and took Yume's hand in his before kissing it.

Sakura glanced at Mei Lin and both of them almost gagged. "Hey, Yume. You better watch out for this playboy here," Mei Lin warned.

Syaoran shot her a death glare. "What did you say?"

Mei Lin ignored her cousin's glare. "I won't want you to get hurt because of him," she said.

"By the way, Sakura. I have a few more creations I want you to try on," Tomoyo said dragging her to the dressing room.

"Hoe..." Sakura said. "Guys, you can get some rest or practice on your danicing. Look for me if you had any problem. I'll be back later!" she shouted to the dancers before disappearing to the dressing room.

+_+* Syaoran's POV +_+*

I watched as Sakura shouted last minute instructions to the dancers before being dragged to the dressing room by Daidouji. It was the first time I noticed how her eyes sparkle when she laughes and how her body has the perfect curves...wait a minute. What am I thinking?! I must going nuts.

I mean...look at her! She is dressed with a pair of baggy jeans with a tight tank top...okay, okay. Maybe she DOES look hot...but so what? It's not like I'm attracted to her or anything...right? Oh no.

O_o End of POV o_O

^_^v In the dressing room ^_^v

"Tomoyo, please," Sakura begged. "I still have to teach them what to do for the concert in a week!"

"Don't worry. Just one more," Tomoyo replied looking through the dresses.

"That's what you said about the last five," Sakura said under her breath.

"How about this one?" Tomoyo asked holding up a black sleeveless top with a short leather pants. The top has a low neck that shows her cleavage.

"Um...too...revealing," Sakura said hoping that is an excuse good enough for Tomoyo.

"Good!" Tomoyo said. "Try it on."

Sakura groaned as she dragged her feet to change. When she was half-way hanging, she heard a knock on the door. "Come in," Tomoyo said.

Five heads popped into the room. "Um...is Sakura-sensei ready? We had been waiting for three hours already."

Tomoyo sweatdropped as she laughed nervously. "She'll be ready in a few minutes," she said. "Sakura, are you ready?"

Sakura came out of the dressing room wearing the clohes Tomoyo had chosen. "Yup. But this IS a bit TOO revealing," she said and laughed nervously. Then she noticed the audience she had. "Hoe. Chiharu, Rika, Naoko, Yamazaki and Carolyn. What are you doing here?" she asked as she tried to cover herself up.

"You look great Sakura-sensei," Carolyn said. "So utsukushii!"

"See? They agree to my tastes," Tomoyo said smugly.

"But it's a bit too revealing like you said," Carolyn continued making the rest fall down, anime style. "What?" she asked looking at them on the floor with sweatdrops on their head.

"Nothing," Sakura assured.

"Wolf would LOVE it!" Rika exclaimed.

"Okay. Now I'm SURE I hate this," Sakura said turning around to change.

"Sakura!"

Sakura winced when she heard Tomoyo shout her name. "Yes, Tomoyo?"

"Please, Sakura. Wear it for just an hour," Tomoyo begged with a cute pout on her face. Sakura tried to resist the pout but she finally gave up.

"Fine, fine. You know how I react to puppy dog eyes," Sakura mumbled.

"Hai. And you love for it," Tomoyo said happily.

"Let's go!" Chiharu said happily. "I can't WAIT to see how Wolf would react," she said giggling making Sakura groan.

"You guys have a great sense of fashion. How about you come when I'm dressing Sakura up with my own creations?" Tomoyo asked as they headed out of the door.

"Sure!" Chiharu, Naoko, Rika and Carolyn said.

"I don't think I will. Maybe Denise would like that," Yamazaki said.

^_^v Outside the dressing room ^_^v

"Where is she?" Denise asked fuming in her seat.

"Calm down, Denise," Ceres said.

"Yea. She'll come out in a few," Meredy said.

"Look, here they come now," Farah said pointing to the door that was opening.

Everyone looked up to see the seven people walking out of the dressing room. Rika, Chiharu, Yamazaki, Naoko, Tomoyo and lastly, Sakura. Most of the mouths fell when they saw what Sakura was wearing. Slowly, they recovered and the girls all went forward to tell her how great her outfit was. After two minutes, the only person whose mouth was not closed was Syaoran's.

Everyone, except Sakura noticed this and grinned evilly. "Hey, Wolf. Snap out of it before she sees you," Jason said poking Syaoran's ribs. Syaoran glared at Jason for the poke but mentally thanked him.

"Let's get started, " he growled before turning his back to Sakura.

"Hoe? What happened to Wolf?" she asked.

"Nothing, Sakura. Didn't you say you want to teach them the dance steps for the coming concert?" Tomoyo said as Mei Lin and Yume came in.

"Another one of your creations, Tomoyo? " Mei Lin asked.

"Iie. I found this in the dressing room. Mine are MUCH more revealing, " Tomoyo said with a wink.

"Hoee... "

"Let's get going," Syaoran said with a growl.

"Hai, hai," Sakura said. "Let's start, people. "
