Asking For Trouble

By: wolfiie-chan

3 days before wedding day

'Hey Carms, all is settled! The Sally girl called in this morning and she said 'no problem we'll find you a hunk of a man' aren't you just happy for me?' I screamed through her door. Hearing nothing I opened it and saw that she was rather busy playing tonsil hockey with her current boyfriend.

I quickly shut the door behind me. That was so disturbing. 5 seconds later after trying to erase the images from my head, the door opened to reveal a disheveled Carmy. 'Well hello there Sakura, nice for you to knock before coming in.' She was glaring at me now and all I could do was smile.

'Thank you Carms. Did you hear what I said! All of it? Because I am so happy!' I was now jumping up and down, hey; a girl can't help being hanyan. Someone coughed behind Carms and I peaked over to see her gorgeous boyfriend, silver hair, black eyes and nice smile. I say she scored big.

I grinned at her 'Nice one' I winked. In return she just turned beet red. I focused my attention back to her boyfriend.

'Sakura Kinomoto, Carmy Changs' flat mate'. I stretched out my arms. He shook it and smiled.

'Nice meeting another lovely lady besides Cookie'

I raised an eyebrow 'Cookie.' I said with humor. 'Uh, nice nick name…Cookie'

Carms growled and pushed me out the door. 'Please, we have more stuff to do.' She slammed the door in my face, of course after she gave me the finger.

'I Love you too!' I screamed from outside of her door.

'And I love you most' I turned around to find Chris standing in the hallway. I chuckled at his foolishness.

'Oh and the escort will meet you tonight at Starbucks!' he screamed after me. 'Thanks' I told him and turned to my room to prepare myself for the candidate.

The next day

2 days before the wedding, I was running crazy around the flat trying to collect the things that I need for I am staying for 2 days for the wedding with my escort. Of course we ain't gonna be sleeping in the same bed. That's too extreme.

The escort that I met yesterday was on okay candidate, not gorgeous but not ugly too. He has blue eyes and blond hair, fit body and at least has a sense of humor.

When I was in my room at night, reading a book called 'How To Fake a Boyfriend' Carms came in and sat at the end of my bed. When I looked at her, she was staring at my comforter and was stroking it.

'Uh, hello there Carms. Did you come here to talk to me or stroke my bed?'

She smiled 'Nah, just going to talk. What's his name by the way?'

I put down my book and looked at her 'Collin Firth' she nodded.

'What does he do when he's not escorting?' I didn't quite like the emphasis she put on 'escorting'. She managed to make is sound like 'male prostituting'.

'Wal-mart Cashier. Got fired.' She narrowed her eyes. 'Look, Carms, I know your not too keen on this idea of mine but I got no choice!'

Her narrowed eyes soften 'whatever' she got up to head to the door. Before she left she told me 'Listen, I'm just worried. I have a feeling there's more to it the escorting. What if you fall for him, huh? I have a feeling this is just disaster waiting to be ignited.' She left me to think about her previous words which led to me sleeping.

The next morning, I took a bath and prepared myself for the 'escort'. I settled tight fitting jeans and a white tank top. I left my hair down which reach up to my shoulder. I put no make up except for mascara and lip gloss and waited in the living room.

Carmy was pacing around which led me to annoyance. 'CARMS!' I bellowed. She stopped and sat down on the couch. The phone rang. We both looked at it in horror and looked at each other deciding which one of us will answer it.

I reached for it and answered.

'Hello? Sakura Kinomoto?' It was Sally from the escort agency. My heart beats faster. 'Ye-yes, this is she.'

I saw Carms looking at me in horror.

'Listen Kinomoto, um, Colin was rushed to the hospital because of high fever. We are very sorry. It just happened yesterday night.' I inhaled sharply. 'However, we do have replacement. His name is Syaoron Li.'

'Ok-okay, is he passable? I mean that guy was perfect. I hope he gets better. I mean what if he isn't what I'm looking for? I mean what happens now? I need to go in an hour! Its already 10:00 in the morning. I need to get to Tomoeda in 12:00! I me—'

'Miss Kinomoto, we assure you he's perfect. He'll be there in 20 minutes. Thank you and have a great time.' All I heard now was the dial tone.

Carms was dead white and was holding on to a cushion so tight.

'Replacement' I whispered. She breathed once again. We stared at the evil phone until the door bell rang.

I ran to the door and turned to Carms. 'Okay? Ready? Do I look okay? I mean what if I ha—'

Carmy pushed me towards the door. 'You always look gorgeous Sakura. Now go pounce him'.

I opened the door and saw just the most gorgeous man I ever seen. Instantly I felt my heart flutter.

He smiled. He thought she was the most stunning woman he ever saw. He immediately loved everything about her.

I smiled. 'Hey' He started. 'Syaoron Li, at your service, mademoiselle. Glad to have such fine lady to be with'. He took out a rose from his back.

I thought my heart would rip out of me.

'Gorgeous' I heard Carms whispered behind me, I whispered back 'Perfect'.

I reached out to grab everything. After 10 minutes we were in the car, me driving and him sitting in the passenger seat.

I glanced at him and saw him staring at me. I winked.

This could be fun.
