Now To The Story

Last on Somebody to (Truly) Love

Eriol looked over at the entrance and jumped up, "Cousin!!! How nice to see you again," Eriol looked at the girls, "Tomoyo, Sakura, Meet Syaoran."

Sakura looked at Eriol's cousin and then paled. Sakura shot up, "YOU!!!!! You're Eriol's cousin?!?!?!"

Plot and Written by: lil-asian-gurl
Chapter 2. Meeting You (part 2)

Tomoyo starred at Sakura and Syaoran, "You two met already? When?" Tomoyo turned to Sakura and her face lighted up, "Why didn't you tell me you already met?"

Eriol laughed, "Syaoran!! I didn't know you know Sakura!! Sit down and tell us how you two met. I bet it is a wonderful story. How my cute little cousin met Sakura!! "

Syaoran sat down and glared at Eriol, "I hate it when you call me that. Let's see...we-"

Sakura interrupted, "I bumped into Li when I was at the mall today. Nothing really happened, not worth telling every detail."

Syaoran put on a confused look, but took it off quickly, "Right. We bumped into each other at the mall and that's all that happened. But wait 'till I tell you where we met, it was at-"

Sakura jumped up and covered his mouth and laughed nervously, "No where important." Sakura started to remember where her hand was and blushed. She took her hand away, "ehhhh...Sorry"

Tomoyo went closer to Sakura and whispered, "I should have gone with you to tape how you two met. Sakura, I want to know how you two really met."

Sakura blushed, "It wasn't that interesting. By the way, why wasn't Eriol at the wedding?"

Tomoyo glanced at Eriol talking to Syaoran, "Beats me. He didn't tell me. He went to all your other weddings. When I called him all he said he had something to take care of."

"Oh. Why don't you try asking him?"

"I don't think it's really any of my business. But I can ask him later. After dinner I'm going home with him. He said he had something to ask me."

Sakura smiled and giggled, "Oh really? I wonder what he's gonna ask you." 'He's gonna propose.'

"Same here. I hope it isn't something bad like, "Do you think we should be seeing other people" or like that. And I really don't think this is a laughing matter."

.::o( ..) Syaoran (.. )o::.

"You're gonna do what!?!?!?!" Syaoran whispered loudly.

Eriol smiled at Syaoran's reaction, "I'm gonna propose. I'm telling you Syaoran, she's the one. I'm sure of it. I told her I wanted to go somewhere after the restaurant with her, so I'm going to take her to the park and propose. But- "

"Didn't you come with Sakura? What are you going to do about her?"

"Ah. That's where you come in. I was hoping you drive her to Tomoyo's house and drop her off so she can get her car. The people at the gates know her pretty well so they'll let her in. And what's going on between you two? She calls you by your last name, but you call her by her first name. And plus I wanted you to get to know some pretty close friends. And what better start then my to be fiancée and her best friend?"

Syaoran looked at Sakura and then looked over at Eriol, "She never told me her full name. And I don't think she really likes me that much."

"Oh."

"Yah."

"If you really want to know her full name then why don't you ask her? And how can you be completely sure that she doesn't like you. I mean she has been and was just in a... non-successful relationship."

"I don't know. It seems kinda weird. Do I really have to drive her home, well to her car?"

Eriol smirked at Syaoran; "I think you already know the answer to that, so I'm not going to answer that."

Syaoran glared at Eriol. He looked over the table and looked at the small figure in front of him. He looked at her honey brown hair and her emerald eyes. It was kinda hard to believe she wasn't still in school.

.::( ..) Sakura (.. )::.

Sakura glanced across the table and caught Syaoran look at her. She blushed, "Mr. Li?"

Syaoran quickly looked away, "Sorry. I was thinking about something. And you can call me Syaoran."

Sakura smiled softly, "It's ok Mr.- I mean Syaoran." Sakura glanced at Tomoyo who had stars in her eyes and giggling. 'I wonder what Tomoyo is up to. Last time she was like that was when she introduced me to Alex and I ended up running away from my fourth wedding. She better not be at it again.'

"Sakura!!" Sakura looked up at Eriol, "Are you okay Sakura? You looked pretty dazed right there. Do you want to go home?"

Sakura shook her head no, "I'm alright. I just thought I-" Sakura got a glimpse of a tall figure and black hair. The figure turned his head and Sakura knew who it was instantly. Sakura turned her head so the person couldn't see her face. Sakura looked at Tomoyo, "Umm... please excuse me. I'll be right back." Sakura got up quickly and pulled Tomoyo behind her. Sakura quickly ran over to the bathroom while pulling Tomoyo behind her. Eriol and Syaoran looked at the two girls puzzled.

Tomoyo looked at Sakura confused, "Sakura. What is going on? It's not like you to drag me to the bathroom with you."

"Tommy"

Tomoyo still looking confused, "What?!?! What about Tommy?"

Sakura looked at Tomoyo scared, "He's here. Usually after I run away from a wedding, the guy probably gets over it. Well I saw Tommy and he didn't look very happy. I think he's really mad. I mean I've known him longer than any other guy. He isn't the kind to just move on when the bride ditches him at a wedding. What if-"

Tomoyo touched Sakura's arm, "Don't worry!!! He won't see you. I want you to go back out there and pretend nothings wrong. Don't look around the room for him. Just look at Eriol, Syaoran, and me. Don't yell or raise your voice 'cause then he would know it's you from your voice. Don't worry; if he gets near you, I'll make sure he doesn't touch you. If he dares to touch you then he's gonna have to get past me, and if he dares to touch me, then he has to answer to Eriol." Sakura sighed. Her face wasn't as scared as before. "And Sakura? Do you think he saw you before?"

Sakura stayed quiet for a moment, "I don't really know. I was just looking around and I thought I saw someone familiar and then he turned around and I saw his face so I turned my face quickly."

Tomoyo nodded, "Come on. And do what I told you." Tomoyo and Sakura went out the restrooms and went towards the table. When they sat down at the table Eriol and Syaoran looked at Sakura. Tomoyo cleared her throat, "Ahem. Nothings wrong. Everything is fine so there's nothing to worry about." Eriol and Syaoran nodded.

Sakura sighed quietly and then froze. Sakura started tugging on Tomoyo and was about to say something when Tommy came up. Sakura looked at Tomoyo in horror and then gave her a what-do-I-do-now look. Tomoyo put on a big frown and glared at Tommy.

Tommy ignored Tomoyo's glare and looked down at Sakura, "Sakura!! What the hell were you thinking today?!?!" Tomoyo was about to stand up when Eriol's hand reached out to her and pulled her down. Tommy continued staring at Sakura.

Sakura whispered something softly. Then she said it over again louder, "Get away from me."

Tommy looked at Sakura angry than before, "Excuse me? I'm not going anywhere until you give me an explanation."

Syaoran stood up, "She told you to go away. As you can see we are trying to have dinner, and you are ruining it."

Tommy looked at Syaoran in disgust, "Who are you?"

Syaoran gave Tommy a cold glare, "I should be asking you the same thing. Who do you think you are, coming up to us and ruining our dinner."

Tommy ignored Syaoran and grabbed Sakura's hand. Sakura looked up, "Get your hand off me!" Tomoyo jumped up and pulled Sakura away from Tommy. Sakura ran out the restaurant with Tomoyo behind her. Eriol stood up and punched Tommy in the stomach and ran off to the front and quickly paid for the dinner and ran after Tomoyo and Sakura.

Syaoran smirked at Tommy, "Well, I guess I'll get going. And if I were you I would stay away. Nice meeting you whoever you are." Then Eriol ran in and grabbed Syaoran and pulled him out of the restaurant. Tommy just stood there and walked over to his table and sat in front of a girl with black-ish brown-ish hair.

.::( ..) Outside (.. )::.

Sakura gave everyone a small smile, "I guess it's my fault for ruining dinner."

Tomoyo rubbed Sakura's back, "No it isn't. It's not your fault. It's that bas- I mean guy's fault. Well I guess we should start going back home." Everyone nodded in agreement. Tomoyo tapped Sakura's shoulder, "And I guess I should have told you before, but you're going back to my house with Li- I mean Syaoran." Sakura opened her mouth to argue back when Tomoyo gave Sakura a big smile, "Well now I got that taken care of!! Thanks for understanding Sakura." Tomoyo ran over to Eriol and pulled him towards his car.

Sakura stared at Tomoyo running off and she whispered, "But I don't want to go with him."

Syaoran went over to Sakura, "Want to go now?" Sakura nodded her head and followed Syaoran to his car and got in the passenger seat.

.::( ..) In Syaoran's Car (.. )::.

Syaoran started driving to Tomoyo's house with direction's Eriol gave him. He could sense Sakura wasn't very comfortable. Syaoran stared at the road and took a quick glance at Sakura, "Who was that? Back there at the restaurant?"

Sakura shifted in her seat and frowned, "That was Tommy."

"..."

"Today was my wedding. I was going to marry him but then I started to have second thoughts, so I ditched my wedding and went to the mall. And you probably know the rest of the story."

"Oh. So what were you doing in the bridal store? if you were already getting married and shouldn't you already have a wedding dress?"

Sakura smiled, "I- wait a minute. What were you doing in a bridal store?"

"I, ummm.... don't know."

"Really? Seems like you do but don't want to admit it."

"Yeah. I was going around the city with Eriol and he dropped me at the mall and told me to meet him at some restaurant later. He just said he had to go get some stuff for later. And I went in practically every store except that one. And one of my sisters is having a wedding soon so I thought I could see what I'm going to be going through. And plus my sister needs some ideas for her wedding dress."

Sakura smiled. "You have a sister?"

"Four actually. Fuutie, Feimie, Xiefia, and Fanren. Feimie is the one getting married."

Sakura stared at Syaoran in amazement, "Four?!? Wow!! It must be wonderful having a sister."

Syaoran raised his eyebrow, "Actually it's not that wonderful. They're all so annoying and energetic. Don't you have any sisters or brothers?"

"I have one older brother." Sakura shot her head up. "Ah shit!! My brother!!"

"What's wrong?"

Sakura pulled out her cell phone, "I forgot to tell my brother I went out." Sakura punched some numbers in and waited for someone to answer. After a minute or two you could hear someone yelling on the other end. "I'm okay onni-san, I went out with Tomoyo, Eriol and his cousin...I'm going to stay at Tomoyo's tonight. I'll be back tomorrow. Bye!!" Sakura hung up.

"What was with all the yelling?"

"My brother and dad came home and didn't know where I was. I forgot to write a note saying I went out."

"Oh. So I'm guessing your brother is really protective of you?"

"In a weird sort of way."

"So when is your sister's wedding?"

"In a month or two."

"Oh. Make sure to ask her if he's the right one. 'Cause you wouldn't want her to make the same mistake like me. But then not everyone is as clueless as me."

Syaoran nodded and turned and reached at Tomoyo's gate. Sakura rolled down the window and stuck her head out. Some of the guard people yelled a hello and they opened the gate. "You must come over to her house a lot."

"Yup. And some actually went to one of my weddings."

"Weddings? You're telling me you've had more then one wedding?"

Syaoran stopped the car and stared at her. "Uhhh...." Sakura looked out the window. "I gotta go!! See you later. And thanks for the ride." Sakura got out of the car and ran towards the house and went in leaving Syaoran in the car.Syaoran just sat there confused. About 10 minutes later he started to leave.

.::( ..) Inside Tomoyo's House (.. )::.

Sakura stared out at Syaoran's black car. She stood there as the car left. 'That was close. I guess it was my fault for bringing up weddings.' Sakura stepped back from the window and sat down on Tomoyo's bed and looked at the clock on Tomoyo's desk, it read 9:00. She stood up and went to Tomoyo's closet and went to a corner where she kept some of her clothes and some outfits Tomoyo made for her. Sakura got a tee shirt and a pair of shorts and went into Tomoyo's bathroom and washed her face and changed. She walked back to the bedroom and sat down on the bed again waiting for Tomoyo. Sakura turned on Tomoyo's TV and started flipping the channels. Sakura finally settled on a channel and lay down on the bed. After 45 minutes Sakura drifted to sleep.

.::( ..) Sometime later at Tomoyo's House (.. )::.

"Sakura!!"

"..."

"SAKURA!!!!" Sakura woke up and saw Tomoyo at the edge of the bed smiling happily.

"Mornin'. What time is it?"

Tomoyo sweat dropped, "Sakura, it's not morning. It's 11:00. At night."

Sakura laughed sheepishly, "Oh. When did you get back?"

Tomoyo smiled again, "About half an hour ago. Sakura!!! Guess what?!?!"

Sakura raised her eyebrow, "What?"

"I'm engaged!!! Eriol proposed!!!"

"Wow Tomoyo!!! Can I see the ring?"

Tomoyo blushed for a moment and then held out her hand. On her finger was a ring with an amethyst stone in the middle with diamonds on both sides of the amethyst. Sakura stood speechless at the sight of the ring. Out of all the guys that have proposed to her, no ring was as beautiful as this one(Well maybe some but this ring is still beautiful). (AN: I'm making this ring up. I can't find a ring so sorry if the ring sounds weird and stuff.)

"TOMOYO!!!! It's gorgeous!!! So... when's the wedding date?"

Tomoyo stood silently, "Sakura! I have only been engaged for an hour. Do you think I already have my whole wedding planned?"

Sakura shrugged and smiled. (AN: There's a lot of smiling in this story isn't there?)

"I think it's still a little to early."

Sakura nodded her head in agreement, "And once you get most of the things planned out, I'll help you plan out your wedding!!! I'm going to make it the best day of your life."

Tomoyo smiled and hugged Sakura, "Thanks. You knew he was going to propose weren't you?"

"Yah..."

Tomoyo stopped hugging Sakura and stared at her. And then exploded, "AN YOU DIDN'T TELL ME!!!"

Sakura stared at Tomoyo frightened, "If I did tell you then what's the fun when he asks you?"

Tomoyo stood there. And if you looked closely, you could have seen a small tear coming out of Tomoyo's eyes. "You're right. What's the fun of being surprised and shocked if you already know what's going to happen." Tomoyo giggled and then stopped and paled, "Oh my god! I'm gonna get married!!!" And Tomoyo fainted on the bed.

Sakura stared at Tomoyo in horror. Sakura started trying to wake Tomoyo up but Tomoyo wouldn't wake up. She pulled Tomoyo off the bed and started pulling Tomoyo to the bathroom and laid her in the bathtub and started running the water. Tomoyo shot up letting out a small scream, "What happened?!?!?!"

Sakura jumped up and down in joy, "Tomoyo!!! You're still alive!!!" Sakura helped Tomoyo out of the bathtub and handed Tomoyo a towel.

Tomoyo sweat dropped, "Of course I'm alive. I'm just kind of nervous about being married and all. Oh Sakura, how do you do it?!?!?!"

"Do what?" Sakura looked at Tomoyo confused.

"You know, like not being so nervous. Until your wedding day of course where you finally get second thoughts and run away and hide for about a month before coming back home."

Sakura laughed nervously, "I'm like that?"

"Yup."

"I get nervous all the time. I just keep it in, and then blow up on the wedding day. But I think its better for you to be more open before your wedding day. You don't want to be doing what I did. But you wouldn't do that 'cause Eriol is a wonderful guy."

"You're right."

"Of course I am!!! I've had six weddings and I am an expert at weddings."

"Except for the fact that you're afraid of commitment."

"I am not afraid of commitment!!! It's just that..."

"You are too. Why else would you run away from all six of your weddings?"

"I guess I am..."

"But don't worry. You'll find the right guy. And when you do, you'll know it. Not right away of course."

"Yah." Sakura yawned, "I'm getting tired. I've had a long day. I'm going to the other room. 'night." Sakura walked out of Tomoyo's bedroom and went to the bedroom across the hall.

Mystery POV

'Where am I?' I looked around and saw the breathtaking scene. I was next to the ocean overlooking the waves and jumping dolphins. The wind was blowing a small breeze so you could smell the ocean air. I turned around and found a person in front of me. They took me in a deep embrace and I smiled. I looked up and saw deep amber eyes. I looked at the face and saw Syaoran. 'What is Syaoran doing?' Syaoran started leaning closer and his eyes started to lure me in.

POV Finished

Sakura woke up screaming. Tomoyo ran in and saw Sakura all sweaty.

"Sakura, are you okay?"

"Yah. I'm alright."

"Okay." Tomoyo walked back to her room leaving Sakura alone.

"It was just a dream..." Sakura told herself. 'But why did it seem so real?' Sakura fell back on the bed thinking about her dream.

(AN: Good morning everybody. It's a wonderful day outside!! The sun is out and partly cloudy. It's not hot but not cold, it's the perfect day to be outside. So get out of those chairs and go outside and breath some fresh air. Ok now that I got that over with, on with the story.)

Sakura walked out the bathroom and went down to the kitchen where Tomoyo was.

Tomoyo was cooking something and the scent filled the kitchen. Tomoyo looked up at Sakura and smiled, "Good morning!! Hope you were okay last night."

"Yah, I'm okay." Sakura smiled at Tomoyo.

"Good!! It's a beautiful day today. So I asked Eriol this morning if we could go on a picnic and announce our engagement. So we're going to this beautiful park to have a picnic. And you want to know the best part of all?" Tomoyo jumped up and down in excitement.

"What?"

"It's right next to the ocean."

Sakura's eyes widen. She started to remember the scene from her dream. Sakura shook the image out of her head, "Wow!!! The ocean!!! So who's coming?"

"Let's see...practically all our friends and some family. We're going to have a big cook out!!!"

Sakura jumped up and down with excitement, "We're going to the beach!!! It's been a while since I've been to the beach. I don't know, 3 years? 4? It's been a long time."

"Yup. I guess that's why I chose it. And plus it's a perfect day to go to the beach. The sun is out and it's not too cloudy. I don't think it's going to rain so everything should turn out great. And there's going to be an engagement party next month so we have to go shopping for some materials so I can make you a dress to wear to that."

"Hoee... Can't I buy my dress?" Sakura sweat dropped.

"Nope. I'm making your dress. The only time you are buying a dress is for casual wear and for your wedding unless I feel like making the dress. And I already thought of a design so there's nothing you do to stop me now!!!"

Sakura sighed. Tomoyo was right. Once Tomoyo thinks of a design, there's nothing that's going to stop her from completing the dress. "Okay, you win. I'm gonna go stop by my house to change." Tomoyo nodded and watched Sakura as she ran out to her car and drove away.

.::( ..) Sakura's house (.. )::.

Sakura went in her house and ran to her room. She grabbed a bag and started looking for some of her things. After she had all her things in her bag she changed into some jean shorts and a light pink tank top. She brushed her hair before putting it in a high ponytail. She grabbed her bag and went down to the kitchen and grabbed something to eat.

Sakura was putting up the stuff in the kitchen when someone crept up behind her and put their hand on her shoulder. Sakura thinking it was a ghost, gave a loud scream and turned around and saw Touya. She glared at Touya and stomped on his foot. Touya winced in pain, "Morning kaijuu. Missed you at the wedding."

Sakura looked at Touya and gave him a cold glare before grabbing her bag. "I'm going to the beach with Tomoyo and some friends. I might spend the night with Tomoyo again so don't wait for me." Sakura ran off to the door and left.

.::( ..) The Park/Beach/Picnic (.. )::.

Sakura arrived at the park about two hours later. She tried to find a parking space when a black car speed by her. Sakura mumbled in anger as the car took the parking space in front of her. 'That person sure is rude. I'm gonna teach that person a lesson as soon as I get a spot.' Sakura finally found a spot and started to find her friends.

Sakura had no trouble finding her friends. She went over to Tomoyo who was sitting next to Eriol on a blanket. Sakura smiled at Tomoyo. Tomoyo smiled back at Sakura and dragged Sakura around the place introducing her to people. After Sakura was introduced to everyone she walked over to the beach. She looked at all the people playing in the water. Sakura started to walk along the shore. Someone bumped into her and she fell in the water getting soaking wet. Sakura got up and turned around to look at the person and met amber eyes.

"Li!!"

Syaoran looked up and saw Sakura soaking wet with a piece of seaweed in her hair. Syaoran stood up and helped Sakura up. He pulled the seaweed out of her hair and noticed her face partly red. "I'm real sorry. I didn't see you there."

"It's alright. Sorry about running out of your car like that." Sakura looked at Syaoran and saw he wasn't as wet as her.

"Oh that! I wanted to ask you some-" Sakura started to splash water at Syaoran and ran off scared of what Syaoran might do next.

Sakura tripped over someone's abandoned sand castle and saw Syaoran running towards her. Sakura tried to get up and run away but Syaoran caught her and dragged her to the water and got her wet again. They started a water war when Tomoyo went over to Sakura. "Looks like your having fun."

Sakura blushed, "He started it!!!"

Syaoran hearing what Sakura said and tried to defend him, "No you did!!"

"No I didn't"

"Yes you did"

"Nuh uh"

"Uh huh"

"Nuh uh"

"Uh huh"

"Nuh uh"

Tomoyo stared at Sakura and Syaoran fighting like little kids. "You two are acting like 5 year olds."

Sakura and Syaoran looked at each other and started to splash water at Tomoyo who was screaming running away from them.

Eriol sat down watching his cousin and Sakura start war with his fiancée. Eriol shook his head and laughed walking over to Tomoyo entering the war zone.

Author Note: Well that's it for now. I spent a week writing this so I know its pretty long. I hoped you liked it!!! I'm going to start on Chapter 3 next week so it should be out pretty soon. It might not be as long as this. But I think that's a good thing. So bye for now!!!
