Last Time
They were practically pulling each other across the dance floor. They spun around and then let go. Sakura then started doing series of dance moves, which made Syaoran look at her oddly.
"What are you doing?" he asked her just staring.
Sakura looked at him and said like it was obvious. "Dancing."
"But we have a routine! In a routine you can't just do whatever you want! It needs structure! It needs-" but Sakura cut him off.
"When I dance I have no routine." She just plainly said. "I just let myself feel the music and do whatever move a please." She said it so defiantly that Syaoran had to find away comeback.
"But we'll need a routine at the palace!" as he shouted that at her she grabbed the paper from him and tossed it across the room. She changed the song that was being played. Syaoran looked at her in shock as she tossed the routine.
"Now first we learn how to feel the steps, then we learn the routine." She told him and stepped up to him.
He just sighed and looked at her. "Fine."
"Okay now first you have to… to… to" as she was stuttering she was banging her fists on her hips and looked at Syaoran helplessly, "What do you call these things?" she whispered embarrassed that she didn't know what they were.
Syaoran raised an eyebrow at her and told her, "Your hips."
"Oh okay. Now move your 'hips' in a circle." She commanded emphasizing on hips and moving her hips in a circle.
Syaoran rolled his eyes, "Okay." And moved his hips around while Sakura watched him.
"That's a box." She told him in an amused voice putting her hands on hr hips.
When she said this, it caused Syaoran to glare at her. Which only made Sakura giggle.
Chapter 5
It was the next day and Syaoran was exhausted from trying to teach Sakura how to ballroom dance. Every time they would get some progress done, she would get bored and start doing her own dancing. It would him so frustrated and it also made him afraid to lead her because she would do something completely different then what he was expecting her to do. She was completely unpredictable! He didn't know what she would do next. But he knew he needed to help her. So here he was looking for his friends to help them cover for him.
He found all of them in the lobby sitting around talking when he came up to them.
"Hey Syaoran man! Where have you been?" Jesse asked him looking up grinning while sitting beside Meiling.
"Yeah, where have you been?" Chiharu asked him.
Meiling and Tomoyo looked down because they knew what he was doing.
"I've been busy doing stuff." Was all he told them.
"What kind of stuff?" Naoko asked him suspiciously.
"Okay I have something to tell all of you." He told them quietly, "I'm entering a dance contest and I can't let my parents or Nalanie know about so I need all of you to cover for me when they're looking for me."
"Why can't you let them know about it?" Travis asked him confused.
"Yeah, wouldn't you go in this with Nalanie or something?" Rika asked.
"I'm in it with a Cuban girl…" he told them all quietly.
"What? Syaoran you go around dancing with a Cuban girl! What are you thinking?" Eriol yelled at him.
"It's that girl we saw you with before, isn't it?" Tomoyo asked him quietly. Meiling nodded with her.
"Yeah, it is." He nodded to them.
"Wait. I don't understand." Jake spoke up, "What's Tomoyo talking about? And why does Meiling no about it?" this made everyone who noticed nod in agreement.
"We saw Syaoran with a Cuban girl who worked at this hotel and told on them." Meiling said looking down, "We got her fired."
"How could you do that to her?" Chiharu asked surprised at what they did.
"She's not like us! We couldn't just let her hang around Syaoran like that! What else could we do?" Tomoyo cried.
"Whatever. I hope you guys are happy you cost someone their job." Was all Rika could say.
"Anyway…" Syaoran spoke up making them look at him again, "I'm doing this to help Sakura. Which is her name by the way. And you guys are going to help me, because I'm your friend and I have lots of blackmail on all of you so you'll have to help me." He stated.
They were all quiet, letting this all sink in. They knew Syaoran had lots of blackmail on them that could get them in lots of trouble. Finally Takashi spoke up, "Alright Syaoran man, I'll help you."
After Takashi spoke up everyone else agreed. Syaoran smirked at them and walked away going to meet Sakura.
"What are you doing? Your frame is too weak. You can't just hang off me like that." He told her while Sakura struggled to keep a good frame.
"There's too many rules to this type of dancing!" she complained exasperated, "I'm never going to be good at this type, I'm too used to Cuban dancing."
"What ever happened to: 'I'm a fast learner' eh?" he grinned at her making her glare at him.
"Shut up. This is harder then I thought it would be." She mumbled while straightening up and getting into a better position.
"Yeah, well now we have to sweep across the dance floor." Syaoran told her while gesturing to the floor around them.
"Okay, but why do we have to stand so far apart? You can fit another couple between us!" Sakura motioned to the space between the two of them.
"It's not going to be a crowded club. Now come on and lets sweep." And he carried her around the room.
He was sweeping her across the room when Sakura started taking control. She said to him, "Sweep? Okay I can sweep." And she pulled him across the room making Syaoran struggle to keep his balance.
"What are you doing you're steps are too big and I'm suppose to lead you!" he shouted at her trying to make it come through to her.
"Hey I'm just sweeping. And I'm leading because when you were leading it was to slow! When you dance you lead to move in the moment!" she told him giggling.
Syaoran sighed as she continued to be the leader. Eventually she let him lead again and he made it faster so Sakura wouldn't get bored. Eventually they got lots done, of course they still had some problems like when Syaoran would still be too afraid to lead her because with some of the moves that Sakura said they should do he felt like he would violate her. Sakura would then always get frustrated telling him not to waste the music. But other than that they would be okay.
Then there would be parts where they would be sweeping and Sakura would tell him that dancing with him like this was like dancing with her mother's ironing board. Whenever she said stuff like this he would glare at her and she would just laugh at him.
Syaoran was sitting in the hotel room doing his homework when his mother walked in smiling. She sat down and he put the book he was looking at down.
"So, how are things going with you and Nalanie?" she asked him.
He got uncomfortable talking about her with his mother, especially since he didn't even like Nalanie at all. "I have homework to do." And he got up to leave when she pulled him down.
"I'm sorry. It's just, she's so cute!" his mother's face was glowing as she smiled at him.
"You aren't planning an arranged marriage are you?" he asked her suspiciously.
"No." she told him, but then smiled, "I should have thought of that." And laughed.
"Well don't be making an wedding plans yet. We don't know what's going to happen in the future." He told her seriously.
"Oh don't worry, I won't" Yelan reassured him, "but don't be afraid to tell me if you get any weird feelings for her." She told him seriously, "You know, feelings you're not used to feeling."
Syaoran just rolled his eyes. As she was talking about those types of feelings that she thought he might be having for Nalanie, pictures of him spending time with Sakura came into his mind. The way she knew how to make him smile, they way she could make him laugh, the way she laughed and smiled…
"Syaoran, are you listening to me?" Yelan asked him, "Do you understand what I'm saying?"
He just looked at her nodded and said, "Yep." And got up to walk away.
After he walked away, Yelan sighed and put her face in her hands frustrated.
It was nighttime and Syaoran was with Sakura at the Underground again. This time he knew more dancing then he did the first time and Sakura seemed to be having a great time. She was smiling the whole time they were dancing. That is until they got to a part where they had to get closer. He didn't want to touch her because he thought most women were afraid to be touched like that by someone. So when they got far enough into the step he pulled away so he wouldn't go to far.
He looked at her and saw she was looking at him with a funny expression and she let another guy grab her and start dancing. She had a big smile on her face as they rubbed up against each other and shaking her chest. He wouldn't admit it but he was jealous. He wanted to be the only one that danced with Sakura. So with out a word he walked off the dance floor and sat down in a chair just watching the people dance.
After a few minutes Sakura came over with a guilty expression on her face. She stood away from him a bit and spoke, "Syaoran…" he nodded his head to show he was listening, "I'm sorry, I just didn't want to waste the music…"
He kept his disappointment out his voice and said quietly, "Of course, you can't waste the music." And he sat back on his chair turning to look at her.
"Then why are you so afraid to lead me? Why do you always go so far and then stop what you're doing? We'll never get this done if you're afraid to dance with me." She told him seriously.
"I'm not afraid." He told her with determination in his voice.
"Yes," she told him waking up closer to him. She put her hand on his arm gently and told him still with her serious voice, "When you're ready to admit you're afraid, let me know." And she walked away leaving Syaoran with his thoughts.
It was the next morning and Syaoran was walking around the hotel trying to find the room that the dance lessons were in. He found the room and opened the door. When he opened the door he saw female teacher dancing. She stopped when she saw him.
"Oh, sorry, I didn't think anyone was in here." He told her getting ready to leave.
"Oh. It's okay," she told him stopping him from leaving, "I was just finishing up here. So how are things going with you?"
"I entered the contest." He sighed going to sit down.
"Really?" she asked him smiling, "So, how are things going with it?"
"Oh just great." He told her sarcastically.
"Really now?" she asked him smiling.
"Actually, no." he told her shaking his head in despair. "We'll be doing great, I'll be flowing, I'll be feeling free, and I'll be making a circle. I won't be an ironing board anymore and things still won't be working! Now she says I'm afraid to dance with her." He said all that distressed.
"So are you afraid?" she asked him.
"No." he said stubbornly.
"That's too bad." Was all she said, "Come on let me help you practise."
Syaoran got up and got into a position to dance. "Hmm… Nice form… Where'd you learn this?"
"My parents made me take lessons." Was all he said.
"Okay now let's just put our arms down and do basic." So he out his arms down and started moving his feet in harmony with hers.
"So what am I suppose to call you?" he asked while they were moving.
"Call me Kaho." Was all she said.
"What did you mean by 'That's to bad'?" Syaoran asked her.
"They started to do some more moves while she answered him. "If you can't learn to concur your fears and turn them into dance moves then you'll never be able to connect with yourself. And if you can't connect with yourself, you can't connect with your partner."
"But I'm afraid that it will make her uncomfortable if touch her like that." Was all he could say.
"Believe me." Kaho told him, "It's scary as hell to let a person touch that part of you. I'm sure your partner is terrified. But since she doesn't want to disappoint you concurred that fear. And if you concur your fear, then your dance will turn out perfect."
As she said this all he could do was nod.
"Now forget everything I just said and let's dance."
They then started dancing across the room. Syaoran wasn't sure how long it was but eventually Kaho stopped and said, "That's it for today, the floor is yours. But I think you better tell that partner of yours that your ready to concur your fears." And with that she walked away.
Syaoran was now alone in the room. He was quiet for a bit. Then he smiled and ran out to go over to see Sakura.
He got in front of her house and stood at the gate. He waited for her to come out. When she came out and leaned her face up against the gate. She looked at him expectantly. He sighed and gave into her stare.
"Okay, I Am." Was all he said.
Sakura leaned farther onto the gate and turned her head to the side. She grinned teasingly at him and said with an amused voice, "Your what?" she knew she was getting to him. But he wasn't about to let her know.
"Afraid." Was all he said.
Sakura looked at him and smiled. "Nice to know your ready to admit it now."
"Yeah, I guess it really is."
