Chapter Eight: Do You Still Love Me?

^Sakura's POV (Mainly thoughts)^

How did this happen? Set up with Syaoran, in the most romantic restaurant in Tomoeda! And here I thought that I was smarter than this, smart enough to not fall for one of Tomoyo's stupid set-ups! Well I do have a great view; I mean the view is Syaoran's EXTREMELY HOT face. I love him, I love him, I love him! Hold that thought, I'm not supposed to think of him that way anymore!!! We were kids back then!

Okay, I think I'm blushing! How do I let myself get into these kinds of positions? Tomoyo says I have to tell him that I still love him, it's true but I don't even think he feels the same way. WHY ME? I'm loving every minute of being with Syaoran, but I'm so confused! He can't possibly feel the same way I feel about him! Damn it Syaoran, Do You still Love Me? Do you love me the way I love you? I need to know!!!

^Syaoran's POV (Also thoughts)^

I should keep a mental not to self, NEVER TRUST ERIOL AGAIN!!! I'm so nervous now, I just want to hold Sakura in my arms and stay that way for eternity! Far out, why can't I just be normal in front of her. This is driving me crazy. I want to say stuff, but nothing's coming out. I hate this deadly silence, why couldn't Eriol set us up WITH our consent first! It would have been nicer if we arranged this ourselves.

If Eriol wanted me to settle in he shouldn't of FRIKKEN set me up for a romantic lunch with Sakura, this is only driving me crazy, what he should of done was something like a whole group's lunch. That way we'd feel more comfortable. Right now it's like I'm under a spell, like I'm in some kind of a trance, her face is just so beautiful that it's hard to tear away from staring! Err. I'm gonna get Eriol for this! But there is something I still want to know Sakura, Do you Still Love me?

~*~*~*~*~Tomoyo, Meiling and Eriol~*~*~*~*~

"Tomoyo, my love, are you sure that this is the right thing to do? I mean the rest of the group offered us for lunch. I'm sure Meiling would like to go and it would be more fun than snooping around!" Eriol told his girlfriend.

"Eriol are you crazy? I'm not passing up this chance to watch them for anything! But as for Meiling, Meiling, do ya wanna go to lunch with the guys?" Tomoyo asked

"Nup! This beats life itself!" Meiling exclaimed and looked at Tomoyo as if she was really stupid to ask a question like that.

Eriol looked then hesitated but still gave in, "Fine, whatever!"

"Great you finally came around hon!" Tomyo smiled as she gave him a kiss on the cheek.

"Aww, how sentimental but we're trying to capture Sakura and Xiao Lang on tape now, if you don't mind!" Meiling interrupted smirking as tints of red crept up the couple's faces.

~*~*~*~*~The Rest of The Group~*~*~*~*~

"Why aren't Sakura, Tomoyo, Eriol, Syaoran and Meiling here again?" Sally asked exasperatedly

"Apparently because they have some catching up to do," Her boyfriend replied dully.

"Well no offence but Sakura and Syaoran at a table with Meiling, Tomoyo and Eriol behind that big pot plant there, doesn't actually look like 'catching up' to me!" Crystal said leaning in for Jordan's shoulder.

"I have to admit, that Meiling chick is hot stuff!" Harry admitted making everyone stare at him.

"Don't tell me, your not gonna hit on Syaoran Li's coz are ya?" Jon questioned is disbelief.

"What's wrong with that?" Jen asked

"Nothing, it's just that I always thought it would be Sakura and Harry, but Sakura's into Syaoran and now Harry's into Meiling, at least none of us would be single!" Jon replied

"That's if everyone else feels the same way," Marty retorted dougting that Sakura, Syaoran and Meiling felt the same way.

"Well Sakura and Syaoran were pretty close back when they were twelve," Chiharu began but Takashi interrupted.

"Yes, did you know that love starts to blossom at a very young age, although most people don't see it until-" Takashi lectured

"SHUT UP!" Chiharu yelled as she slapped his head, "As I was saying, when Syaoran came back from Hong Kong, they admitted they loved each other, the question is do they still feel that way?"

"I reckon there is still some love between them!" Rika opinioned

"That's your opinion hon," Marty retorted playfully

"Yeah, whatever, I wish Naoko was still around to whip your smart-ass comments!" Rika snapped

"Yeah, I really miss Naoko, I wish she didn't have to go to the States last year!" Chiharu sighed

"We all wish she coulda hung round" Crystal summarized

~*~*~*~*~Sakura and Syaoran~*~*~*~*~

There had been an awkward silence. It was when Syaoran realized that how quiet he'd been that he decided to stop thinking about Sakura's feelings for him and enjoy the meal. Sakura decided to be herself and lessen the tension.

"Err. So how've you been these last few years?" Sakura asked lamely, BUT managing to break the eerie silence.

"Fine, I could ask you the same thing." Syaoran replied

"That's it? 'Fine' is all? Well you better start giving me all the minor details because if I remember right, I'm the only one that gives details when we're on the phone." Sakura declared lightheartedly

". Err, okay, lemme see. Well remember I went back to Hong Kong after the whole Star Card ordeal, then I came back to help you catch that negative card, then went back?" Sakura smiled an affirmative, " Good, you're following, well my training became harder and harder as I prepared to become leader. These days I still train very hard but it'd normal to me. The bad thing is I have interviews and all that sorta crap, I hate it, all of my days are scheduled! Your turn now, shoot!" Syaoran stated.

"Mmm, kay. You've heard mostly everything that's gone on in my life so now it's my turn tell ya the basics, I'm fine and happy. I'm really glad your back!" Sakura smiled

"That was very er. who should I say it. quick and basic!" Syaoran commented

"Just like your brief explanations when I call you and when I ask for more details you say you have to go!" Sakura argued playfully.

"You've definitely changed over the years 'Sakkie' is it?" Syaoran teased

"Not everyone calls me 'Sakkie,' and what's wrong with 'Sakkie' anyways? Oh, and don't go saying I've changed 'cause you've changed too!" Sakura pouted playfully 'Yea you're so much more hotter now than before!' Sakura added silently

"Okay, then it's fair to say we've both changed, but at least I've changed for the better!" Syaoran summed up.

"What did you mean by 'at least I've changed for the better'?" Sakura asked

"Do you still sleep in and get to school at the very last possible moment?" Syaoran questioned smirking at the look Sakura was giving him, "I think I'll take that as a 'yes'!" Syaoran laughed

~*~*~*~*~Behind a Potplant~*~*~*~*~

"THEY ARE SO FLIRTING!" Tomoyo exclaimed

"Totally! Eriol, imagine if we were busy having lunch and missing all of this?" Meiling hissed happily

"Okay, I was wrong, my dear descendant and Sakura are always a pleasure to watch!" Eriol admitted then turned his attention to Tomoyo, "Tomoyo dear are you getting all of this on tape?"

"Eriol sweety, OF COURSE!" Tomoyo practically yelled in his ear.

"Sheesh, will you quit it with the pet names! It's making me fell very sick inside and outside!" Meiling complained.

"Whatever Mei!" Tomoyo grunted

~*~*~*~*~At a table not too far away~*~*~*~*~

Marty leaned back on his chair resting back while his eyes were on five of his crazy friends, apparently he wasn't the only one with eyes on the weird five. The whole table in which he sat and many other people were staring at them too. Suddenly Rita's attention was diverted.

"Hey, you would think you get 'Don't swing on chairs' enough from the teachers!" Rika joked

"Okay teach, jeez, you can't even lean back these days!" Marty mumbled jokingly

"Whatever, those five are a sight for sore eyes huh??" Rika asked

"Yea," Ming answered, "They're so fun to watch! Maybe we should have joined Meiling, Tomoyo and Eriol in their little spy game!"

"I know, but I'd rather risk my pride by snooping around when they're doing sappy stuff, if you know what I mean!" Sally giggled

"And here I though only boys had sick minds, but Sally you proved me wrong! I can't believe that you'd watch them do sappy stuff!" Gary chuckled

"NO! You sick baboon! I meant like kisses and hugs and sweet stuff not S*X!!! (Only because this is PG-13)"

"Oh but s*x is sweet!" Jon teased

"Shut Up Jon!" Jen instructed

"Okay, let's just get back to 'they are so cute together'!" Rika directed

"Yea, aren't they adorable laughing together? We'll just have to get a copy of Tomoyo's tape so we can hear what's going on!" Ming avowed with starry eyes

~*~*~*~*~Xie Ing~*~*~*~*~

"Klipino! How could you?" Xie Ing shrieked with tears streaming down her face.

"WENCH, DO NOT CALL ME BY FIRST NAME! I adopted YOU when your DAMN parents died! I FUCKEN raised YOU so respect ME!" A dark figure admonished raising its hand as if to hit Xie Ing

"You SWORE you wouldn't hurt Kristy!" Xie Ing cried with even more tears streaming down her face. She was on her knees crying her eyes out. That was it, she was slapped on the face, HARD, causing her to fall sideways on her face but she kept crying.

"WHY YOU LITTLE BITCH! She was ONLY a voice in your group!" The voice yelled angered

"I'm sorry master" Xie Ing sobbed though she was really sad about her friend's death.

"DO YOU WANT ME TO HAND YOU OVER TO GLEM FOR THE NIGHT!?" The figure bellowed

"No, no, no! Please Master, I beg of you please NO!"

"It has to be done Princess, you need to learn your manners!" The dark shadow sneered as another figure started to emerge. Before long a disgustingly fat man that had a repulsive grin became visible, showing his rotten teeth.

"Wow, this one is pretty, are you sure she needs to be punished?" The revolting man known as Glem asked

"Make sure that she will be sorry by tomorrow morning!" The dark figure ordered sternly

"Yes sir!" The gross man replied while dragging Xie Ing away ignoring her cries.

~*~*~*~*~S&S~*~*~*~*~

"I guess some things never change, huh?" Sakura sighed

"I guess not but hey some habits are just hard to die and thos habits are what makes a person them!" Syaoran answered

"What are you, Mr Wise Fella now?" Sakura joked 'Mmm, maybe I'm being a lil too flirty, Sakura stop flirtin with him NOW! Who am I kidding, I still love him so much, maybe . NO! I can't ask him, it'll ruin our friendship!'

"I don't remember you being this sarcastic. What's with the change of attitude?" Syaoran mocked teasingly. 'Damn, why do I have to love her so much, I feel like I'm gonna slip! I should ask her if she still loves me. but I can't it'll just ruin everything! I know I'm acting all nice and flirty now, I'm never like this, no one brings out this side of me but.her.' Syaoran thought

'Oops, I am being too flirty!' Sakura thought, "Ever since you thought you were 'almighty' and above everyone else" Sakura replied jokingly

"I don't think of myself that way-" Syaoran began

"Here are your gelatos, chocolate and strawberry!" The waitress interrupted gleefully because she noticed Syaoran, "What brings the famous Li clan leader all the way to Japan, please don't tell me she's your girlfriend!" She added somewhat in a flirty manner.

"Umm, not that it's any of your business, but I came here for business and the bonus to meet my old elementary school friends, if you'll excuse us," Syaoran replied somewhat coldly

"Oh! Sorry, I'll leave you two to it then, but can I have an auto-" The waitress apologized

"Thankyou." Syaoran interrupted making her leave sadly. She really wanted his autograph but she knew he never really gave his autograph to anyone.

"You are so rude!" Sakura giggled

"One of my hard-to-die habits!" Syaoran replied with fake pride

"Nothing to be proud of you know," Sakura stated knowingly as Syaoran shoved a mouthful of ice-cream in his mouth. Syaoran shrugged and kept eating with Sakura following his example.

Sakura knew that Syaoran loved his chocolate ice-cream by just looking at him, she smiled inwardly before she scooped a spoonful of Syaoran's ice- cream and shoved it in her mouth.

"Mmm.YUM!" Sakura teased savoring the taste

"HEY!" Syaoran exclaimed

"No wonder you like this so much!" Sakura said

"Fine then!" Syaoran growled but then he looked at Sakura in the eye and smirked. Sakura got confused by his action but that was when Syaoran took a spoonful of Sakura's ice-cream and savored it.

"Hey!" This time Sakura exclaimed, she grabbed another spoonful of Syaoran's ice-cream. In the end they practically swapped ice-creams.

~*~*~*~*~Peeping through a pot-plant~*~*~*~*~

"KAWAII!" Tomoyo exclaimed

"TOTALLY!" Meiling agreed

"What is? Fighting for ice-cream?" Eriol wondered

"Duh! It's the latest craze!" Tomoyo replied sarcastically

"You have no sense of romance." Eriol retorted

"And I s'pose you do?" Meiling asked

"Well, yes actually, I have seen what romance is over the years!" Eriol replied

"Shush, we're ruining the most kawaii tape EVER!" Tomoyo stated

~*~*~*~*~Ming and co.~*~*~*~*~

"They're so cute, they're fighting over ice-cweam" Sally commented excitedly with her baby-voice.

"I know, aren't they?" Ming concurred also in a baby voice.

"Just don't over do it," Jen laughed, "We wouldn't people to think that you guys have some sorta mental disorder." getting icy glares from Sally and Ming

"Sorry to interrupt the STARING contest, but I do believe we have a BILL to PAY!" Crystal stated annoyingly, they had gotten to her nerves.

"Chill babe" Jon soothed giving her a kiss which did calm her down. The guys watched and gave him a 'that's-a good-strategy' look.

~*~*~*~*~S&S~*~*~*~*

"Okay, let's split the bill!" Sakura suggested happily

"Nup, my treat this time!" Syaoran responded while chucking one of his credit cards in the *bill-folder thingy* and closed it.

"Thanks Syaoran" Sakura smiled gratefully

"S'ok," Syaoran smiled back

*BANG*

"Huh? What was that?" Sakura asked

"Whatever it is, it's magical, I can sense it!" Syaoran replied.

"Me too, let's check it out!" Sakura stated.

They dashed out hand in hand to find out what it was but before they could leave the door a waitress stopped them.

"Have you paid for your meal? Don't tell me that you thought that you can run and get a free meal. My, young kids these days.-"
