Chapter Four
Mistake!
"We are landing at Japan International Airport."
Syaoran opened his eyes; he had been sleeping all the while. Eriol sat quietly, looking for the information Syaoran asked for.
"Oh, hi, Syaoran," Eriol greeted as Syaoran sat up straight in his seat, "I see you are awake."
"Yeah, yeah, Eriol," Syaoran replied sleepily, "How are things going?"
"Bad," he replied, staring back at this computer, "It seems to me that none of the government has anything on them. They are a complete mystery."
Syaoran giggles at the now-all-furious-up Eriol. He seldom sees Eriol so engross into things. But the moment he does that, girls went crazy over him. Syaoran turned around, 'I was right.'
The girls were staring at his friend who totally ignored them. Whispering to their friends, Syaoran could guess what they were talking about. He sighed, admitting to himself that Eriol is a good charmer. As the plane landed into the airport, Eriol kept his laptop, Syaoran took his bag and left. As soon as he stepped away from his friend, girls came swamping to Eriol. Eriol was totally caught off guarded by the girls, who were practically all over him. Syaoran stood at the side, smiling at his friend. He enjoys watching girls getting on Eriol. Just then, Li Yong Yi walked towards him, saying, "I see Mr. Hiiragizawa has made new friends, girls especially."
Syaoran looked at him with his narrowed eyes. "I understand perfectly what you mean, Mr. Li," Syaoran replied, "And may I remind you. I am not under the criteria in protecting you with my life, neither is Eriol. We solely ESCORT you to Japan and at the conference."
Yong Yi stared at the young man in front of him. For his whole life, no one dares to argue back at him. He could feel his rage building. Syaoran smiled evilly at Yong Yi. He would love to see this guy suffer as much as he could. Humiliation, that's what he means. He never wants to kill anyone to make someone else suffer. Yong Yi turned and left with his man, he is not going to let this boy off easily.
"So, what did you guys chat on?" Eriol asked, as he finally managed to get away from the girls.
"I know you will be interested," Syaoran asked as he walked out the plane, Eriol followed closely behind.
"So?" Eriol asked again.
"Nothing much," he smiled, "I just want to humiliate him that's all."
"Don't try too much, Syaoran, he is quite a powerful person to the government," Eriol replied worriedly.
"Too late," Syaoran made a face and ran off.
"Wait, Syaoran!!" Eriol shouted as he chased after his childish friend.
Sakura's Side
Sakura reached home at 3 in the afternoon. Zetsu had something else to attend to and has to leave.
"I'm home," Sakura shouted.
"Finally home, Kaiju," Touya greeted.
"I'm not Kaiju!!" Sakura shouted. Touya looked down at his sister. She is still so short. 165 cm? He has already reached 175 when he was at her age.
"What?" Sakura questioned as she stared at her brother.
"Nothing," Touya lied, "Still as short as usual." Sakura's face turned red, why does her brother love to tease her?
"By the way, Sakura," Touya continued, "We are going to the party in the evening."
"Party? What party?" Sakura asked. Touya stared at her, "The one Oka-san told us last week, don't tell me you forgot about it."
Sakura looked at him with horrified eyes. She had indeed forgotten about it.
"HOEEEEE!!!"
Syaoran's Side
Syaoran and Eriol arrived at their new home. A small apartment with four rooms. Three bedrooms, one kitchen, one living room, one study room (I'm not sure what the study room is for), two toilets and one balcony.
"So, this is where we are going to live when we are here," Eriol asked as he looked over at his friend.
"Yeah," Syaoran replied, "What do you expect?"
"Nothing," Eriol replied.
"So, still no finding?" Syaoran asked, as he sat down on the sofa.
"Nope, I will try the blacklist," Eriol replied. He sat down and looked into his bag. He spotted an old book. 'That's...' Eriol thought as he took it out.
"Eriol, what's that?" Syaoran asked, as he saw the book. He recognized the book, it belongs to his father.
"Your mom asked me to pass it to you when you reached here. I don't know what it is," Eriol replied.
"My mother?" he asked. Eriol nodded his head as he handed over the book.
"I guess it's locked," Eriol added.
"Yeah, I have the key alright," Syaoran replied as he took a silver key out.
"You've been wearing the key to this book all these time?" Eriol asked.
"My mother didn't allow me to look at the book," He replied unwillingly. "Oh..." was Eriol's answer.
Syaoran looked at the book. He could still feel his father's presence.
Flashback
"Syaoran," a man holding the book, called out to the young boy.
"Yes, father," young Syaoran asked.
"Dad has something to give you," he replied as he bent down. He opened his hand. In his hand, a silver key flickers under the sunlight.
"What's that, father? What's the key for?" the young Syaoran asked.
End of Flashback
"Syaoran!!" Eriol shouted into Syaoran's ear, breaking Syaoran's thought.
"Huh? What?" Syaoran asked.
"I just know you were not listening to me," Eriol replied, "I said: Don't forget about the party we are attending this evening."
"What?! It's today?" Syaoran asked.
"I told you on the plane, and you replied me that you are all set for it," Eriol asked with a weird look on his face as he saw his friend's face turned white.
"I was sleeping the whole time, Eriol!!!" Syaoran shouted as he went into his room, "Eriol, get your ass here to help me!!"
"Oh, right," Eriol replied, "I'll be there in a moment." While he thinks to himself, 'Can't he just handle things himself just like he always did on girls?'
Sakura's side
"Sakura-chan, are you ok?" Nadeshiko asked as she peeped into her daughter's room. It was in a total mess. Clothes were laying everywhere. Sakura was standing in front of the mirror. She had tried on a lot of clothes but none seems to make her feel good. Nadeshiko stared at her daughter who is so into the clothing thing. She closed the door quietly.
"Konnichiwa," A musical voice greeted Nadeshiko.
"Tomoyo-chan," Nadeshiko relied, smilling at her. Tomoyo Daidouji is her cousin's child, also the only child of the Miyo Toy Company. Of course, as she is Nadeshiko's cousin's child, Tomoyo is also one of the many assassins in the family. Unlike Touya and Sakura, Tomoyo never undergoes much training. Never-the-less is she as talented as Sakura.
"Is Sakura ready for the party?" She asked. Nadeshiko sighed, "She is still busy with the clothes."
"Really?" Tomoyo asked, "Great, I brought some clothes over. I was afraid Sakura had made her choice." She knocked on the door and opened it.
"Sakura-chan," Tomoyo greeted.
"Tomoyo-chan," Sakura turned to face her best friend.
"I brought some clothes for you," Tomoyo said as she pulled out a laced dinning gown. (And I mean lace all over.)
"Tomoyo-chan," Sakura sweatdropped.
"Come on, let's try them," Tomoyo said.
"Hoee..."
"Sakura-chan, are you ready?" Fujitaka shouted.
"Yeah, I'm ready," Sakura's shivering voice sounded through the corridor.
"Sakura-chan, you looked perfect," Tomoyo commented.
Sakura let out a sigh as she walked down the steps. She tried not to fall down the steps again. She was wearing a pinkish gown with white laces. It's simple but when Sakura wore it, it stretches out her beauty.
"You look astonishing today," Fujitaka replied. Nadeshiko nodded in agreement.
"I hope she doesn't tip and fall at the party," Touya replied.
"I wouldn..." Sakura accidentally stepped on her gown, but before she can fall, she held on tight to the handle. (I'm not sure what it is called.)
"I told you," Touya said, his eyes narrowed. Sakura turned red, her brother was right; she has to be careful with a gown. She knew how many times she had fallen because she was wearing gown.
"Let's go, shall we?" Nadeshiko asked. Just then, she saw something shining around Sakura's neck. 'That's...'
"Yes!" they replied, as they left their house and got into a family car. (Those kind with six seats)
"We will reach there in less than 10 minutes," Touya replied with a smile as he started the engine.
"Don't over-sped, Touya," Fujitaka replied. But it's too late for Touya had boosted the car to its maximum.
Syaoran's Side
"Is this ok?" Syaoran asked as he tired on a greenish shirt with a black pants and a pink tie. (Yuck, I hate this combination)
"I don't think the tie fix, so is the shirt," Eriol replied. For the past three hours, Syaoran had been trying different combination of clothes and he still can't make up his mind. Typical Syaoran, overly obsessed with looks.
"Ok, how about this?" Syaoran asked, in a navy-blue shirt, the same pants and a purple tie.
"Ok, this is better than the one before," Eriol replied.
"Good, I will stick to this," Syaoran replied, satisfied.
"I will get myself prepare then," Eriol replied as he left the room.
Syaoran cleared his room, and sat down in the living room. He looked at the book.
'What is it that you want to tell me with this, Father?' Syaoran thought.
"I'm done," Eriol replied as he came out of the room. He was in his tuxedo.
"When did you have tuxedo?" Syaoran asked.
"The day before, it's new alright," Eriol replied, as Syaoran eyed it from every corner.
"Ok..." Syaoran replied in satisfaction in frustrating his friend, "You drive or I drive?"
"Me," Eriol replied, "I don't wish to have a roller coaster ride before a party."
"Yeah, well," Syaoran beamed as he passed his friend the key. They left the house, got into their car and went off. (Regular BMW car) The book lies on the table, the lock shines.
At the party
"Woo...This place is spectacular!" Sakura exclaimed.
"You think so?" Touya asked.
"Sakura is Kawanii," Tomoyo exclaimed behind a video camera.
"Tomoyo-chan," Sakura sweatdropped. She knew Tomoyo loved video recording but at a time like this?
"Tomoyo," Sonomi's voice sounded from behind.
"Oka-sama," Tomoyo greeted.
"Sakura-chan," Sonomi hugged Sakura, "You look wonderful today."
"It's all thanks to Tomoyo-chan. She made it for me," Sakura replied.
"Oh, really, Tomoyo?" Sonomi asked, "I never know you were this talented in this." Tomoyo brushed.
"Sonomi-san," Nadeshiko called out.
"Nadeshiko," Sonomi greeted, "How are you?"
"I'm fine," Nadeshiko replied.
"Hi there," Fujitaka greeted. Sonomi's expression changed. She dislikes him for he stole her beloved Nadeshiko from her.
"Sensei," Sonomi replied.
"I'm not a sensei anymore," he replied.
"Yeah, I know that," she replied.
Sakura and Tomoyo smiled as they left their parents alone. Sakura looked around to find her big brother, Touya when she accidentally knocked into someone.
"Watch where you are going, will you?" A voice asked. Sakura looked up to see the guy with reddish-brown eyes staring down at her. Another guy who was beside him had sapphire-blue eyes. The guys were Syaoran and Eriol. (Sakura don't know anything on them.)
"Sakura-chan, you alright?" Tomoyo asked in concern.
"Yeah, I'm fine," Sakura replied, "I'm sorry." She turned to face the guy. Syaoran just looked at her and blushed slightly. Then he spotted a silvery key shining on her. He had the same key as she did. How did she has one identical to his?
"Let's go," Eriol replied. Syaoran nodded his head in agreement and followed Eriol towards Li Yong Yi.
'Is that who I think it is?' Sakura thought as she stared wide-eyed at Li Yong Yi.
"How did she get that key?" Syaoran whispered under his breath.
"She is charming for a young girl," Eriol replied.
"Clumsy I say," he sighed. They saw Mr. Li standing there, waiting for them.
"Hahaha, I thought I saw u brush," Eriol added.
"I didn't," Syaoran snapped, his face turned slightly red. He admitted she is enchanting. But there is something else he wanted to know about that girl... That key...
"Good evening, Mr. Li," Eriol greeted.
"I've been expecting you two, Mr. Hiiragizawa, Mr. Li," Yong Yi emphasized as he stared at him.
"I told you..." Before Syaoran could start his sentence, Yong Yi continued.
"I know, I know," Yong Yi replied with a grim on his face, "Enjoy yourself, Mr. Hiiragizawa, Mr. Li, or you might regret someday."
"At my pleasure," Syaoran replied as he pulled his friend away from him. He knew that grim was a bad sign. That guy is up to something bad.
"Now, what, Syaoran?" Eriol asked.
"I know he is up to something," Syaoran replied, "But I don't know what is it."
"Ok," Eriol looked at his friend, "What?"
"I don't know," Syaoran replied.
"You are worrying too much, Syaoran," Eriol replied with a smile.
"I hope so," Syaoran replied as he spotted the girl whom he met earlier walking across the floor. He stared at her as she moved. Eriol seems to notice it too.
"Why don't you try your tricks on her?" Eriol asked.
"On who?" Syaoran lied, he knew perfectly sure who that 'she' refers to.
"That girl whom you just met," Eriol whispered, "I will try to take on that violet hair girl." As he signed the girl beside Sakura and that's Tomoyo.
"Ok," Syaoran replied, he loved a dare, "So what will entitle as the winner?"
"Ahm..." Eriol thought for a moment, "How about a kiss?"
"Sound interesting to me, but, how are you going to prove you kiss her?" Syaoran asked, as they moved towards Sakura and Tomoyo.
"I think the two of us can get the kiss easily," Eriol replied.
"Tomoyo-chan, have you find my brother yet?" Sakura asked. She wanted to tell her brother that Li Yong Yi was here as well but she simply can't find him.
"No, Sakura-chan," Tomoyo replied, shooking her head, "Let's try outside." Sakura agreed and they went out of the hall. Syaoran and Eriol followed closely.
"I'll look over there," Tomoyo replied as she moved to the right.
"I'll search over here," Sakura replied as she moved to the left.
Syaoran and Eriol looked at each other, smiling as they followed their targets.
Tomoyo's side
Tomoyo looked around to search for Touya's sight.
'Where could he be?' Tomoyo thought.
"Looking for someone?" A voice asked from behind her. An enchanting voice. Tomoyo spin around to find the guy she met earlier. The guy with the sapphire eyes.
"My name is Eriol Hiiragizawa. What's your?" Eriol asked politely.
"Tomoyo Daidouji," Tomoyo replied.
"Nice to meet you," Eriol replied, his seductive smile on his face.
"Ahm...I'm really sorry but I'm in a hurry to find someone," Tomoyo replied. Eriol took a step forward while Tomoyo stepped back. She had a bad feeling about the guy in front of her. As he moved closed, she could feel the uneasiness in her.
"Don't come near me," Tomoyo told him, as she felt herself leaning against the wall.
"What is it that you fear me?" Eriol asked.
"I don't know," she whispered under her breath as she turned to run. Unfortunately, Eriol managed to catch her hands and pulled her against the wall.
"Let go of me," Tomoyo shouted. Eriol still holding to his grab, pull her towards him.
"Relax, Tomoyo," Eriol replied in a soft and seductive tone, "A little kiss will do."
"No!! Let go of me!" Tomoyo shouted as she struggled to free herself. (I'm still wondering why no one notices anything.)
Eriol had quite a few experiences with girls like Tomoyo. But she is the most beautiful girl he had met so far, and not to mention her attractiveness. Holding her tight with one hand by her waist and the other by her left arm, Eriol kissed her neck gently. Tomoyo felt his breath against her neck. She didn't know what was with this Hiiragizawa. She just met him! Tomoyo, get a grab. Get yourself away from this guy!!
"Please let go of me, Hiiragizawa-kun," Tomoyo pleased softly as she felt herself shivering.
'No' was his answer. He was enjoying himself. Her skin is smooth and sweet. 'Taste a little like snow.' He thought to himself. Soon, Tomoyo could not resist this hot guy in front of her as she slowly, very slowly, wrapped her arms around his neck. She wasn't sure what make her do that but she did. Eriol felt her arms around him and he looked into her violet eyes. His urge to kiss her was getting stronger by minutes. Why was he feeling so? He never understood, as he leaned in and gently brushed his lips against her's. Tomoyo closed her eyes, this little excitement was getting her off track. Very off track, how would she let in just like that? Eriol kissed her, this time round, fully and passionately, bringing her closer to him.
"Tomoyo-chan?" A voice called out to her, making the two lovers to jump to their feet, Eriol releasing her and turned around. Tomoyo was surprise at whom the person was while the person was as surprise as she was.
"Oka-san?!" Tomoyo shouted while Eriol looked at Tomoyo's mother in surprise.
Sakura's side
"Mo... Where did Oni-chan go?" Sakura whispered. Ah... Dead end... Sakura thought as she turned around and was about to head back to the hall when she saw this shadow walking towards her.
"Who is it?" Sakura shouted, as the shadow got closer to her. Moonlight shone through the window and revealing the shadow. It was the guy, that guy whom she bumped into eariler.
"Looking for someone, I see," he smiled evilly.
"So what if I am?" Sakura grinned at him. She hates this guy the moment she saw him. That look on his face disgusted her.
"Does this clumsy little girl need help from me? Or is she just too great to get help from others?" Syaoran teased her. He enjoyed looking at her turned red, recalling what happened earlier, and redder as she was angry with him.
"It's none of your business," Sakura shouted, as she wanted to leave. Syaoran grabbed her hand and pulled her into his arm.
"What the..." Before Sakura could say anymore words, Syaoran covered her lips with his. Sakura, who was completely caught off guarded by his action, stared at him. What's with this guy? That's the first question that came into Sakura's mind. He was kissing a complete stranger. 'Hey, wait, it's means I'm kissing a total stranger too.' Sakura thought. But strangely, she wasn't struggling to get free. In fact she continued to allow him to kiss her. She closed her eyes and took in a deeper kiss, while she felt the guy's strong arm pulling her in. Syaoran felt her body against his, he knew he had the advantage. But he wasn't willing to pull away the kiss yet. The kiss was the sweetest one he ever tasted from so many girls. Cherry. He held her by the waist, releasing her hand from his grab. Sakura held tight by his sleeves. She was actually enjoying a kiss from this stranger and she had totally no idea why.
Just then, the whole place became dark. After a while, when the lights came back, sighs of relieves were replaced by screams of horrors. Syaoran broke off from Sakura, whom was surprise by his quick reaction to the scream, stared as he ran down the hallway. Sakura stood dumbfounded at the spot, touching her lips. She could feel his lips on her's. What just happen has to be a dream, how is she going to face Zetsu again?
Syaoran ran back to the hall and saw a group of people gathering. He made his way into the crowd and was horrified by the scene.
"Mr. Li!" Syaoran shouted as he got past the bodyguards. He bent over him, Yong Yi was died cold. Syaoran cursed himself, why was he not careful? If he hasn't left Yong Yi on his guard, he wouldn't have to die like this.
"Have anyone called the police?" Syaoran asked.
"I did, old pal," Eriol asked as he was as surprise as Syaoran was when he saw the victim.
"Damn, I shouldn't have bet with you," Syaoran cursed.
"Hey, I thought you hate that guy," Eriol laughed as he found his friend contradicting his own hatred.
"Shut up, Eriol," Syaoran cursed again. Moments ago he was kissing that girl and now he had to handle this stupid case. What will it be next?
"Oh, no," Syaoran suddenly remembered, "I forgot to ask her name."
Sakura went into the hall after recovering from the kiss. She walked towards her parents and she spotted her brother smiling. She knew her brother had finished the job. She looked over and indeed, Mr. Li Yong Yi was died. Then she spotted the guy, the guy who moments ago kissed her without a reason. Upon remembering the kiss, Sakura blushed. She didn't know him at all, not to mention his name. She knew practically nothing about him.
'Who is he?' Sakura thought as she moved towards Tomoyo whom was having a lecture by Sonomi.
Woo... 12 pages... a big surprise for myself. Normally I write about five pages but I wrote about twice as much. Hmm... I spend approximately six hours to finish it...
Sorry if my story doesn't go smoothly... This is the first time I write about kissing stuff. I never had been kiss before so I have no idea how it is like. So please go easy on me. I actually have to hide it from my parents before they have the wrong ideas. By the way I left out Touya's action. Hai I will try to put in some of his action and others also.
Plus this time round there is a big chapter for Tomoyo and Eriol. I will try to focus on... Heehee... Secret...
Next Chapter Chapter Five So we meet again
Syaoran and Sakura met again. This time in school. What will happen between them? The kiss they had a few nights ago, will Zetsu finds out? The worst part is Sakura finding out Syaoran is a Li. How is she going to handle it? Tomoyo got a big lecture from her mom, Eriol playing cool, telling her that he was having a bet with Syaoran. When Tomoyo is heartbroken, someone else came into scene, Vicky, some rich guy's son. Will everything change? Will love change into hate?
"We are landing at Japan International Airport."
Syaoran opened his eyes; he had been sleeping all the while. Eriol sat quietly, looking for the information Syaoran asked for.
"Oh, hi, Syaoran," Eriol greeted as Syaoran sat up straight in his seat, "I see you are awake."
"Yeah, yeah, Eriol," Syaoran replied sleepily, "How are things going?"
"Bad," he replied, staring back at this computer, "It seems to me that none of the government has anything on them. They are a complete mystery."
Syaoran giggles at the now-all-furious-up Eriol. He seldom sees Eriol so engross into things. But the moment he does that, girls went crazy over him. Syaoran turned around, 'I was right.'
The girls were staring at his friend who totally ignored them. Whispering to their friends, Syaoran could guess what they were talking about. He sighed, admitting to himself that Eriol is a good charmer. As the plane landed into the airport, Eriol kept his laptop, Syaoran took his bag and left.

Syaoran looked at him with his narrowed eyes. "I understand perfectly what you mean, Mr. Li," Syaoran replied, "And may I remind you. I am not under the criteria in protecting you with my life, neither is Eriol. We solely ESCORT you to Japan and at the conference."
Yong Yi stared at the young man in front of him. For his whole life, no one dares to argue back at him. He could feel his rage building. Syaoran smiled evilly at Yong Yi. He would love to see this guy suffer as much as he could. Humiliation, that's what he means. He never wants to kill anyone to make someone else suffer. Yong Yi turned and left with his man, he is not going to let this boy off easily.
"So, what did you guys chat on?" Eriol asked, as he finally managed to get away from the girls.
"I know you will be interested," Syaoran asked as he walked out the plane, Eriol followed closely behind.
"So?" Eriol asked again.
"Nothing much," he smiled, "I just want to humiliate him that's all."
"Don't try too much, Syaoran, he is quite a powerful person to the government," Eriol replied worriedly.
"Too late," Syaoran made a face and ran off.
"Wait, Syaoran!!" Eriol shouted as he chased after his childish friend.
Sakura's Side
Sakura reached home at 3 in the afternoon. Zetsu had something else to attend to and has to leave.
"I'm home," Sakura shouted.
"Finally home, Kaiju," Touya greeted.
"I'm not Kaiju!!" Sakura shouted. Touya looked down at his sister. She is still so short. 165 cm? He has already reached 175 when he was at her age.
"What?" Sakura questioned as she stared at her brother.
"Nothing," Touya lied, "Still as short as usual." Sakura's face turned red, why does her brother love to tease her?
"By the way, Sakura," Touya continued, "We are going to the party in the evening."
"Party? What party?" Sakura asked. Touya stared at her, "The one Oka-san told us last week, don't tell me you forgot about it."
Sakura looked at him with horrified eyes. She had indeed forgotten about it.
"HOEEEEE!!!"
Syaoran's Side
Syaoran and Eriol arrived at their new home. A small apartment with four rooms. Three bedrooms, one kitchen, one living room, one study room (I'm not sure what the study room is for), two toilets and one balcony.
"So, this is where we are going to live when we are here," Eriol asked as he looked over at his friend.
"Yeah," Syaoran replied, "What do you expect?"
"Nothing," Eriol replied.
"So, still no finding?" Syaoran asked, as he sat down on the sofa.
"Nope, I will try the blacklist," Eriol replied. He sat down and looked into his bag. He spotted an old book. 'That's...' Eriol thought as he took it out.
"Eriol, what's that?" Syaoran asked, as he saw the book. He recognized the book, it belongs to his father.
"Your mom asked me to pass it to you when you reached here. I don't know what it is," Eriol replied.
"My mother?" he asked. Eriol nodded his head as he handed over the book.
"I guess it's locked," Eriol added.
"Yeah, I have the key alright," Syaoran replied as he took a silver key out.
"You've been wearing the key to this book all these time?" Eriol asked.
"My mother didn't allow me to look at the book," He replied unwillingly. "Oh..." was Eriol's answer.
Syaoran looked at the book. He could still feel his father's presence.
Flashback
"Syaoran," a man holding the book, called out to the young boy.
"Yes, father," young Syaoran asked.
"Dad has something to give you," he replied as he bent down. He opened his hand. In his hand, a silver key flickers under the sunlight.
"What's that, father? What's the key for?" the young Syaoran asked.
End of Flashback
"Syaoran!!" Eriol shouted into Syaoran's ear, breaking Syaoran's thought.
"Huh? What?" Syaoran asked.
"I just know you were not listening to me," Eriol replied, "I said: Don't forget about the party we are attending this evening."
"What?! It's today?" Syaoran asked.
"I told you on the plane, and you replied me that you are all set for it," Eriol asked with a weird look on his face as he saw his friend's face turned white.
"I was sleeping the whole time, Eriol!!!" Syaoran shouted as he went into his room, "Eriol, get your ass here to help me!!"
"Oh, right," Eriol replied, "I'll be there in a moment." While he thinks to himself, 'Can't he just handle things himself just like he always did on girls?'
Sakura's side
"Sakura-chan, are you ok?" Nadeshiko asked as she peeped into her daughter's room. It was in a total mess. Clothes were laying everywhere. Sakura was standing in front of the mirror. She had tried on a lot of clothes but none seems to make her feel good. Nadeshiko stared at her daughter who is so into the clothing thing. She closed the door quietly.

Of course, as she is Nadeshiko's cousin's child, Tomoyo is also one of the many assassins in the family. Unlike Touya and Sakura, Tomoyo never undergoes much training. Never-the-less is she as talented as Sakura.
"Is Sakura ready for the party?" She asked. Nadeshiko sighed, "She is still busy with the clothes."
"Really?" Tomoyo asked, "Great, I brought some clothes over. I was afraid Sakura had made her choice." She knocked on the door and opened it.
"Sakura-chan," Tomoyo greeted.
"Tomoyo-chan," Sakura turned to face her best friend.
"I brought some clothes for you," Tomoyo said as she pulled out a laced dinning gown. (And I mean lace all over.)
"Tomoyo-chan," Sakura sweatdropped.
"Come on, let's try them," Tomoyo said.
"Hoee..."
"Sakura-chan, are you ready?" Fujitaka shouted.

Syaoran's Side
"Is this ok?" Syaoran asked as he tired on a greenish shirt with a black pants and a pink tie. (Yuck, I hate this combination)
"I don't think the tie fix, so is the shirt," Eriol replied. For the past three hours, Syaoran had been trying different combination of clothes and he still can't make up his mind. Typical Syaoran, overly obsessed with looks.
"Ok, how about this?" Syaoran asked, in a navy-blue shirt, the same pants and a purple tie.
"Ok, this is better than the one before," Eriol replied.
"Good, I will stick to this," Syaoran replied, satisfied.
"I will get myself prepare then," Eriol replied as he left the room.
Syaoran cleared his room, and sat down in the living room. He looked at the book.
'What is it that you want to tell me with this, Father?' Syaoran thought.
"I'm done," Eriol replied as he came out of the room. He was in his tuxedo.
"When did you have tuxedo?" Syaoran asked.
"The day before, it's new alright," Eriol replied, as Syaoran eyed it from every corner.
"Ok..." Syaoran replied in satisfaction in frustrating his friend, "You drive or I drive?"
"Me," Eriol replied, "I don't wish to have a roller coaster ride before a party."
"Yeah, well," Syaoran beamed as he passed his friend the key. They left the house, got into their car and went off. (Regular BMW car) The book lies on the table, the lock shines.
At the party
"Woo...This place is spectacular!" Sakura exclaimed.
"You think so?" Touya asked.
"Sakura is Kawanii," Tomoyo exclaimed behind a video camera.
"Tomoyo-chan," Sakura sweatdropped. She knew Tomoyo loved video recording but at a time like this?
"Tomoyo," Sonomi's voice sounded from behind.
"Oka-sama," Tomoyo greeted.
"Sakura-chan," Sonomi hugged Sakura, "You look wonderful today."
"It's all thanks to Tomoyo-chan. She made it for me," Sakura replied.
"Oh, really, Tomoyo?" Sonomi asked, "I never know you were this talented in this." Tomoyo brushed.
"Sonomi-san," Nadeshiko called out.
"Nadeshiko," Sonomi greeted, "How are you?"
"I'm fine," Nadeshiko replied.
"Hi there," Fujitaka greeted. Sonomi's expression changed. She dislikes him for he stole her beloved Nadeshiko from her.
"Sensei," Sonomi replied.
"I'm not a sensei anymore," he replied.
"Yeah, I know that," she replied.
Sakura and Tomoyo smiled as they left their parents alone. Sakura looked around to find her big brother, Touya when she accidentally knocked into someone.
"Watch where you are going, will you?" A voice asked. Sakura looked up to see the guy with reddish-brown eyes staring down at her. Another guy who was beside him had sapphire-blue eyes. The guys were Syaoran and Eriol. (Sakura don't know anything on them.)
"Sakura-chan, you alright?" Tomoyo asked in concern.
"Yeah, I'm fine," Sakura replied, "I'm sorry." She turned to face the guy. Syaoran just looked at her and blushed slightly. Then he spotted a silvery key shining on her. He had the same key as she did. How did she has one identical to his?
"Let's go," Eriol replied. Syaoran nodded his head in agreement and followed Eriol towards Li Yong Yi.
'Is that who I think it is?' Sakura thought as she stared wide-eyed at Li Yong Yi.
"How did she get that key?" Syaoran whispered under his breath.
"She is charming for a young girl," Eriol replied.
"Clumsy I say," he sighed. They saw Mr. Li standing there, waiting for them.
"Hahaha, I thought I saw u brush," Eriol added.
"I didn't," Syaoran snapped, his face turned slightly red. He admitted she is enchanting. But there is something else he wanted to know about that girl... That key...
"Good evening, Mr. Li," Eriol greeted.
"I've been expecting you two, Mr. Hiiragizawa, Mr. Li," Yong Yi emphasized as he stared at him.
"I told you..." Before Syaoran could start his sentence, Yong Yi continued.
"I know, I know," Yong Yi replied with a grim on his face, "Enjoy yourself, Mr. Hiiragizawa, Mr. Li, or you might regret someday."
"At my pleasure," Syaoran replied as he pulled his friend away from him. He knew that grim was a bad sign. That guy is up to something bad.
"Now, what, Syaoran?" Eriol asked.
"I know he is up to something," Syaoran replied, "But I don't know what is it."
"Ok," Eriol looked at his friend, "What?"
"I don't know," Syaoran replied.
"You are worrying too much, Syaoran," Eriol replied with a smile.
"I hope so," Syaoran replied as he spotted the girl whom he met earlier walking across the floor. He stared at her as she moved. Eriol seems to notice it too.
"Why don't you try your tricks on her?" Eriol asked.
"On who?" Syaoran lied, he knew perfectly sure who that 'she' refers to.
"That girl whom you just met," Eriol whispered, "I will try to take on that violet hair girl." As he signed the girl beside Sakura and that's Tomoyo.
"Ok," Syaoran replied, he loved a dare, "So what will entitle as the winner?"
"Ahm..." Eriol thought for a moment, "How about a kiss?"
"Sound interesting to me, but, how are you going to prove you kiss her?" Syaoran asked, as they moved towards Sakura and Tomoyo.
"I think the two of us can get the kiss easily," Eriol replied.
"Tomoyo-chan, have you find my brother yet?" Sakura asked. She wanted to tell her brother that Li Yong Yi was here as well but she simply can't find him.
"No, Sakura-chan," Tomoyo replied, shooking her head, "Let's try outside." Sakura agreed and they went out of the hall. Syaoran and Eriol followed closely.
"I'll look over there," Tomoyo replied as she moved to the right.
"I'll search over here," Sakura replied as she moved to the left.
Syaoran and Eriol looked at each other, smiling as they followed their targets.
Tomoyo's side
Tomoyo looked around to search for Touya's sight.
'Where could he be?' Tomoyo thought.
"Looking for someone?" A voice asked from behind her. An enchanting voice. Tomoyo spin around to find the guy she met earlier. The guy with the sapphire eyes.
"My name is Eriol Hiiragizawa. What's your?" Eriol asked politely.
"Tomoyo Daidouji," Tomoyo replied.
"Nice to meet you," Eriol replied, his seductive smile on his face.
"Ahm...I'm really sorry but I'm in a hurry to find someone," Tomoyo replied. Eriol took a step forward while Tomoyo stepped back. She had a bad feeling about the guy in front of her. As he moved closed, she could feel the uneasiness in her.
"Don't come near me," Tomoyo told him, as she felt herself leaning against the wall.
"What is it that you fear me?" Eriol asked.
"I don't know," she whispered under her breath as she turned to run. Unfortunately, Eriol managed to catch her hands and pulled her against the wall.
"Let go of me," Tomoyo shouted. Eriol still holding to his grab, pull her towards him.
"Relax, Tomoyo," Eriol replied in a soft and seductive tone, "A little kiss will do."
"No!! Let go of me!" Tomoyo shouted as she struggled to free herself. (I'm still wondering why no one notices anything.)
Eriol had quite a few experiences with girls like Tomoyo. But she is the most beautiful girl he had met so far, and not to mention her attractiveness. Holding her tight with one hand by her waist and the other by her left arm, Eriol kissed her neck gently. Tomoyo felt his breath against her neck. She didn't know what was with this Hiiragizawa. She just met him! Tomoyo, get a grab. Get yourself away from this guy!!
"Please let go of me, Hiiragizawa-kun," Tomoyo pleased softly as she felt herself shivering.
'No' was his answer. He was enjoying himself. Her skin is smooth and sweet. 'Taste a little like snow.' He thought to himself. Soon, Tomoyo could not resist this hot guy in front of her as she slowly, very slowly, wrapped her arms around his neck. She wasn't sure what make her do that but she did. Eriol felt her arms around him and he looked into her violet eyes. His urge to kiss her was getting stronger by minutes. Why was he feeling so? He never understood, as he leaned in and gently brushed his lips against her's. Tomoyo closed her eyes, this little excitement was getting her off track. Very off track, how would she let in just like that? Eriol kissed her, this time round, fully and passionately, bringing her closer to him.
"Tomoyo-chan?" A voice called out to her, making the two lovers to jump to their feet, Eriol releasing her and turned around. Tomoyo was surprise at whom the person was while the person was as surprise as she was.
"Oka-san?!" Tomoyo shouted while Eriol looked at Tomoyo's mother in surprise.
Sakura's side
"Mo... Where did Oni-chan go?" Sakura whispered. Ah... Dead end... Sakura thought as she turned around and was about to head back to the hall when she saw this shadow walking towards her.
"Who is it?" Sakura shouted, as the shadow got closer to her. Moonlight shone through the window and revealing the shadow. It was the guy, that guy whom she bumped into eariler.
"Looking for someone, I see," he smiled evilly.
"So what if I am?" Sakura grinned at him. She hates this guy the moment she saw him. That look on his face disgusted her.
"Does this clumsy little girl need help from me? Or is she just too great to get help from others?" Syaoran teased her. He enjoyed looking at her turned red, recalling what happened earlier, and redder as she was angry with him.
"It's none of your business," Sakura shouted, as she wanted to leave. Syaoran grabbed her hand and pulled her into his arm.
"What the..." Before Sakura could say anymore words, Syaoran covered her lips with his. Sakura, who was completely caught off guarded by his action, stared at him. What's with this guy? That's the first question that came into Sakura's mind. He was kissing a complete stranger. 'Hey, wait, it's means I'm kissing a total stranger too.' Sakura thought. But strangely, she wasn't struggling to get free. In fact she continued to allow him to kiss her. She closed her eyes and took in a deeper kiss, while she felt the guy's strong arm pulling her in. Syaoran felt her body against his, he knew he had the advantage. But he wasn't willing to pull away the kiss yet. The kiss was the sweetest one he ever tasted from so many girls. Cherry. He held her by the waist, releasing her hand from his grab. Sakura held tight by his sleeves. She was actually enjoying a kiss from this stranger and she had totally no idea why.
Just then, the whole place became dark. After a while, when the lights came back, sighs of relieves were replaced by screams of horrors. Syaoran broke off from Sakura, whom was surprise by his quick reaction to the scream, stared as he ran down the hallway. Sakura stood dumbfounded at the spot, touching her lips. She could feel his lips on her's. What just happen has to be a dream, how is she going to face Zetsu again?
Syaoran ran back to the hall and saw a group of people gathering. He made his way into the crowd and was horrified by the scene.
"Mr. Li!" Syaoran shouted as he got past the bodyguards. He bent over him, Yong Yi was died cold. Syaoran cursed himself, why was he not careful? If he hasn't left Yong Yi on his guard, he wouldn't have to die like this.
"Have anyone called the police?" Syaoran asked.
"I did, old pal," Eriol asked as he was as surprise as Syaoran was when he saw the victim.
"Damn, I shouldn't have bet with you," Syaoran cursed.
"Hey, I thought you hate that guy," Eriol laughed as he found his friend contradicting his own hatred.
"Shut up, Eriol," Syaoran cursed again. Moments ago he was kissing that girl and now he had to handle this stupid case. What will it be next?
"Oh, no," Syaoran suddenly remembered, "I forgot to ask her name."
Sakura went into the hall after recovering from the kiss. She walked towards her parents and she spotted her brother smiling. She knew her brother had finished the job. She looked over and indeed, Mr. Li Yong Yi was died. Then she spotted the guy, the guy who moments ago kissed her without a reason. Upon remembering the kiss, Sakura blushed. She didn't know him at all, not to mention his name. She knew practically nothing about him.
'Who is he?' Sakura thought as she moved towards Tomoyo whom was having a lecture by Sonomi.
Woo... 12 pages... a big surprise for myself. Normally I write about five pages but I wrote about twice as much. Hmm... I spend approximately six hours to finish it...
Sorry if my story doesn't go smoothly... This is the first time I write about kissing stuff. I never had been kiss before so I have no idea how it is like. So please go easy on me. I actually have to hide it from my parents before they have the wrong ideas. By the way I left out Touya's action. Hai I will try to put in some of his action and others also.
Plus this time round there is a big chapter for Tomoyo and Eriol. I will try to focus on... Heehee... Secret...
