Sakura and Madison entered the restaurant which had to be the most elegant place the two had ever been to. They settled into their booth in the corner. The seats and tablecloth were a cream color. The plates were made of decorated china and the silverware a bright silver, without water spots. The glasses looked as if they were made of crystal and the centerpiece was huge and made of white roses. The chandeliers hanging from the ceiling were dripping in diamonds and the lamps on the walls looked like they were made of gold.

"Eriol seems to be doing well," Sakura said, unaware of how far open her mouth was.

Madison stared wide-eyed at the richness around her and could only nod. "And he said it was simply a humble establishment!"

The waiter came up to them and offered the menu, saying that anything they ordered would be on the house, compliments of the owner.

"Isn't that generous of him!" Madison exclaimed.

"Would you like to make him regret that generosity?" Sakura asked her mischievously.

Madison giggled. "Oh, lets!"

And with that, they ordered the most expensive meals in the menu.

"That was the best meal I've had in the longest time," Sakura said, finishing the last bite of her pecan pie. "I owe Eriol a million hugs!"

"Uh-huh," Madison said, still occupied by her cheesecake. When she had finished she said, "Do you want to check out the club? If Eriol isn't here, he must be there."

"Yeah, sure, why not?" she said, getting up and leaving a tip for the waiter. They went into the club room which was positively shaking from the music.

Meanwhile . . .

"So, that's it," Eriol was saying to Li. "Would you like to see the actual restaurant."

"If it's half as good as what I saw here, then I ought to buy several shares of your business," Li said eagerly.

"I won't be the judge," Eriol said, putting his hand on the door leading to the restaurant. "Well, here it is." He pushed the door open.

Li's jaw dropped down low.

Meanwhile . . .

Sakura and Madison danced a few dances before abandoning their strangers to meet at the bar.

"It's getting late, Madison," Sakura said, checking her cell phone for the time.

"I've got a lot of phone time in the morning, not to mention a few more presentations," she continued.

"All right, we can – " but she never finished that phrase because the DJ announced that a karaoke round was about to begin and that a random person would be chosen to sing from the list of admitted personages.

"How about," the DJ paused to stick his hand in the basket. "Sakura Kinomoto!" he called.

Madison clapped and pushed Sakura onstage.

"So what would you like?" the DJ said to her.

"Um . . . I don't know . . . could I do Greatest Story Ever Told?" she said shyly.

"Yeah," he said, switching discs, "Fire away!"

Sakura took a deep breath and held up the microphone.

"Thank you for this moment I gotta say how beautiful you are Of all the hopes and dreams I could have prayed for Here you are

If I could have one dance forever I would take you by the hand Tonight it's you and I together I'm so glad

And if I lived a thousand years you know I never could explain The way I lost my heart to you that day But if destiny decided I should look the other way

Then the world would never know The greatest story ever told And did I tell you that I love you Tonight

If I don't hear the music When I'm looking in your eyes But I feel the rhythm of your body Close to mine

It's the way we touch It sends me It's the way we'll always be Your kiss, your pretty smile you know I die for Oh baby You're all I need

And if I lived a thousand years you know I never could explain The way I lost my heart to you that day But if destiny decided I should look the other way

Then the world would never know The greatest story ever told And did I tell you that I love you Just how much I really need you Did I tell you that I love you? Tonight Tonight

And if I lived a thousand years you know I never could explain The way I lost my heart to you that day But if destiny decided I should look the other way

Then the world would never know The greatest story ever told And did I tell you that I love you Just how much I really need you Did I tell you that I love you? Tonight"

The crowd cheered. Some guys went all out and whistled. Sakura smiled and blushed and handed the microphone over to the DJ.

"Come on, Madison, let's go," she said, slightly embarrassed.

Meanwhile . . .

Eriol had been showing Li around the restaurant when he heard it. The karaoke call.

"No! Did they start it without me!?" Eriol sounded indignant.

"What?" Li asked, confused.

"There's a karaoke fest, and I was supposed to announce it," Eriol said sounding a little put out.

"Go ahead, I'll wait here," Li said.

"Thanks," Eriol said as he rushed off.

Eriol caught Sakura and Madison just as they were headed out of the door.

"Hey, Madison! Sakura!"

"Eriol!?" the two squealed together and they both gave him a huge hug.

"You're not leaving already?"

"Sorry, Eriol, but I've got a lot of work to do in the morning," Sakura said, again checking the time.

"But there's someone I wanted you to see – "

Sakura interrupted him, "Sorry, Eriol, but I really have to go now, I'll call you tomorrow!"

"But – " Eriol began again, but Sakura and Madison bounced out of the door and into the night.

Li had let Eriol go about his business, but he heard something that made him want to go into the club again. He heard singing – a woman was singing and her voice sounded familiar, and really pretty. He waited because he had told Eriol that he would, but he went into the hall in time to hear the last strains of the song. "Did I tell you that I love you . . . tonight . . . " By the time he got into the club, he couldn't see anything because people were jumping up and down, whistling and cheering. Li caught a glimpse of a green dress before it disappeared. Utterly disappointed, Li turned away.

Back at the restaurant, Eriol seemed frustrated.

"I take it you didn't make it in time?" Li said, noticing Eriol's flustered state.

"No, it's not that, I had just planned something and it didn't come through," Eriol said. "I had hoped it would happen tonight, but I guess I'll have to wait until some other time."

Li checked his watch. "I'm sorry to say this, but I have to go now."

"You too?"

Li had no idea what he meant but he continued anyway, "I've got a lot of work ahead of me. I have a feeling I'm not going to get a lot of rest for a while, so I might as well get some now."

"All right, I'll see you some other time," Eriol said.

"I'll call, but for now, I guess I'll see you around," Li said.

"Yeah, see ya."

Li left the restaurant and headed home. He figured he'd just walk, seeing as how his apartment building was only a block away. He walked thinking hard to see if anyone he knew could sing like that woman on the karaoke stage. He was in the elevator on the way up to his floor when it hit him. Sakura could sing like that.
