Chapter 12
AFTER WORK
Sakura was fixing her self inside the restroom in the Daidouji's Company. Suddenly, she heard someone crying in of the cubicle but when she got inside, she was all alone. She took a deep breath, "I am woman now, I shouldn't be frightened to ghost" she told to herself. Suddenly, the cry was getting louder and louder making her get her things and ran out of the bathroom. She suddenly bumped into someone making her fell on the ground. "Oh shit!" she yelled in pain and shock when she saw Syaoran looking down at her. "Why are you here? And don't you have plans to help me stand up?" she said sarcastically.
Syaoran looked down at her, curious when she ran out from the restroom. "Wait, why are you running when you got out from the restroom?" he asked grabbing her hand and helped her to stand up.
She blushed, "Well… uhm… I heard someone's crying inside… and… I am the only one who's there… and I got scared… so I run" she explained as she saw Syaoran was about to laugh. "If you laugh I'll kill you" she threatened.
He took a deep breath and finally controlled his laughter. "Fine" he whispered under his breath.
"Anyway, why are you here? Waiting for someone?" she asked as she zipped her bag and looked back at Syaoran. "Hmmm?" she said waiting for an answer.
He thinks for a while. 'Yes, why am I here? What am I doing here?' he thought. "Well… uhm… I—" Sakura didn't let him finish what he was saying instead she say something.
"Never mind, don't answer that" she said. "Can we now go?" she asked as she headed for the elevator.
He nodded and followed her to the elevator. "Mei Lin wants us to go in her modeling show tonight at 7 o'clock. Wear a formal dress and after the show there's a formal party" he said.
She nodded, "Fine" she answered.
Then they went to Syaoran's car and got inside. She do buckling thing and smiled at him. "Just in case… Anyway, every time when you are going to drive somewhere can you please buckle your seatbelt?" she said.
He smiled a little and nodded. "Even I am going to drive in a very near place?" he asked looking at her while starting the engine of his car.
She nodded, "Yes, even you are going to drive in a very near place" she replied. "Clear?" she asked.
"Sure" he answered rolling his eyes.
Then they finally reached Mei Lin's mansion quietly. After Syaoran had parked his car, Sakura immediately got out and glanced at her wristwatch, 6:00 in the evening. She hurriedly ran to her room, she saw a gown lying on her bed. She walked towards her bed and stared at the gown. She saw a small pink paper on the bedside table. She slowly picked it up and read it, "This is your gown, I hope you like it! See ya later! From Mei Lin". She smiled and put it down on the place where she got it. She went threw her bag on the couch behind her and got inside the bathroom and took a relaxing bath.
After thirty minutes, she got out from the bathroom only wearing a pink bathrobe. Suddenly she heard a knock on her door making her jumped in surprised. "Who's that?" she asked walking to her bed and gets the gown.
"It's me, Syaoran Li" someone answered behind the door.
She rolled her eyes, "What!" she asked coldly.
"Can you make it fast? We are going to be late for the show" he answered.
"Fine, fine, wait for me in the living area, I'll be there in ten minutes!" she said as she went to the walk-in closet with the gown and wore it.
After twenty minutes, Sakura was still in her room. She was now wearing a Pink spaghetti-strapped gown with mini train and beading. She put a very light make-up on her face; hair was tied in an elegant style, her shoes pink open-toed sandals. She was holding a pink satin handbag. "Perfect" she muttered staring herself in the mirror.
She took a deep breath and walked to the living area where Syaoran was waiting for her. She walked down the last step of the stairs and saw Syaoran. He was so good-looking in his black suit; his hair was still messy adding more points in his looking. She gulped; she didn't know what to say.
Syaoran was staring at Sakura; he was staring at an angel. He shook his head and flashed a glare at her. "HEY! You told me that you are going to be ready in ten minutes! We are going to be late for the show!" he said coldly.
She glared back at her, "Whatever!" she whispered under her breath. "Can we go now?" she asked as she walked to Syaoran's car. She got inside the passenger's seat and buckled her seatbelt.
He got inside and quickly buckled his seatbelt and glanced at Sakura who was smiling. He shook his head then they headed to Mei Lin modeling show in Shotenshi Hotel, a very popular in Japan.
A moment later, they were now in front of the famous hotel. Sakura got out and walked up to the front door and saw a guard greeting her. She smiled at him and got inside through the glass sliding door. She saw Syaoran walking behind her; she took a sigh and headed for the reception area. "Good Evening! Can I ask what floor is the modeling show?" she asked looking at the lady.
Syaoran walked beside her and looked at the lady, waiting for her answer.
"In the 21st floor and Miss Mei Lin told us that the show and party is by partner and I just want to ask you, Miss. Do you have a partner with you?" the lady answered.
She took a deep breath. 'I'll kill her when I see her!' she thought. She glanced at Syaoran and wrapped her arms around his neck making his eyes widened. "He is my partner" she said with a smile.
"Oh, okay, you may go ahead. Please enjoy the show and the party!" the lady said cheerfully.
She took a sigh and walked to the elevator removing her arms around Syaoran's neck. She pressed up and waited for the elevator to open. Then she got inside and waited for him to get inside too.
"Why did you tell to the lady that I am your partner for the party and for the show?" Syaoran asked breaking the silence.
She blushed while staring at her shoes, "Well… Nothing, I mean I really need to do that" she answered.
"Oh okay" he uttered as he heard the elevator let out a loud ding. They both got out and walked a little and saw a two door glass door. Sakura pushed it and got inside, making everyone looked at them as if they were a celebrity.
She gulped and looked at Syaoran. "What are we going to do?" she asked.
He took a breath and grabbed her hand and hurriedly walked to where Mei Lin is. "Simple, isn't it?" he said as they stopped walking in front of Mei Lin.
She rolled her eyes and pulled her hand from him. "Whatever!" she said. She saw Mei Lin looking at them, "Hey!" she called.
Mei Lin smiled at them; she looked at Sakura and nodded. "You look so great in your gown!" she said.
"I'll take that as a compliment" she answered as she saw a familiar figure walking towards them. She glared at the woman walking towards them. It was none other than… Suzuki.
She took a deep breath and decided to walk away from them. Suddenly… "Kinomoto, where are you going?" Suzuki asked sarcastically.
She turned around and faced her with a force smile. "You don't care" she answered. She glanced at Syaoran who was frowning. She turned her back and saw a table with no one was sitting. She quickly sat there and glared at Suzuki who was flirting with Syaoran. She took a deep breath, "Whatever" she whispered.
Suddenly, someone sat beside her, a very handsome man with a green eyes and his hear was messy but Syaoran's hair was messier. "Who are you?" she asked leaning on the chair while crossing her arms against her chest.
He smiled at her, "I am Suki and I think that you need some company" he answered.
She rolled her eyes, "Sorry but I don't need someone right now" she replied grumpily. Staring at Syaoran and Suzuki.
"Well, I know that you are just lying" he said. "And maybe after the show, can you dance with me?" he said still not giving up.
She flashed a force smile, "Whatever, can you just leave?" she answered. She saw Mei Lin getting up in the stage. She glanced at Suki who just left.
After an hour, the show was finish. All of the people were eating their food while Sakura was just sitting on the chair were she sat earlier. Mei Lin, Syaoran and Suzuki were eating their food in the table where Sakura is.
Mei Lin looked up and saw Sakura was just sitting there, not eating. "Sakura, are you alright? Why are you not eating? Don't you like the food being serve?" she asked hurriedly.
She forced a smile, "I am alright, its just that I lose my appetite" she answered. She looked at Suzuki, "Hey" she called.
Suzuki looked up, "What?" she asked coldly.
"Don't you have your partner with you?" she asked.
She nodded, "So?" she answered.
"Why don't you entertain him? I mean don't entertain someone's partner and entertain your own partner" she answered sarcastically.
She rolled her eyes and stood up. "Fine" she whispered making her smile.
Sakura took a deep breath and started eating her food. A moment later, she was finally finished on her food. She heard the music changed in a slow song making her smile, it feels good to hear a nice and slow song.
Suddenly, she saw a hand popped beside her face making her looked up and saw a drunken Suki. "Mister? Why are you here?" she asked sarcastically.
"I told you earlier I want to dance with you" he said in lazy tone.
She glared at him, she knew that he was not in his mind, he was just drunk. "You are just drunk" she said.
He laughed; "Of course I am not!" he replied his eyes were half-closed.
She glanced at Syaoran's chair but he wasn't there. 'Damn! Where is he?' she thought. She was surprised when she saw another hand popped in front her making her gulp. She looked up and saw Syaoran.
"Can I dance with you?" he asked.
"NO! She can't! She is going to dance with me!" Suki hurriedly replied.
She smiled at Syaoran and received his hand. "I am sorry, Suki but I want to dance with him" she said as they walked to the center when many couples where dancing sweetly. She slowly put her hands around her neck while he wrapped his harms around her waist. She rested her head on his shoulder. "Thank you for that one! I don't really want to dance with drunk persons" she said softly.
"I know that you don't like him earlier, I saw him walk towards you and start a conversation while you just roll your eyes and do not entertain him" he answered making Sakura looked up at him.
"You see that?" she asked.
He just nodded.
"Really? I thought you are busy flirting with the bitch" she said sarcastically making him laugh. "I never saw you laugh or I just forgot how you laugh" she added.
He smiled, "How did you know that I was flirting with her?" he asked.
She rolled her eyes, "Of course I see you two!" she answered in a loud voice making everyone looked at her. She flashed an apologetic smile and glared at him.
He chuckled, "Really? Or you are just watching us because you are jealous?" he said.
She took a deep breath, "Me? Jealous? In your dreams! In the first place, I don't care if you do something! And of course I don't care when you have a accident or whatever!" she said as she was about to walked away from him when Syaoran grabbed her waist making their face came very close. They were feeling each other's breath. She was about to pushed him away when he say something. "Move or I'll kiss you" he threatened making her eyes widened.
"Try me" she whispered as she tries to push him away when he tightened his hold to her waist and quickly claimed Sakura soft lips. She was shocked at first, she doesn't know if she will go to reply or not. She then closed her eyes and slowly replied his kiss; she wrapped her arms around her neck, still continuing the kiss. He held her so close. They were kissing for about a minute, Sakura was the first who drew back, "I can't breathe" sounding so sound tired, gasping for air. She rested her head on her chest. He was too was tired, he smiled and took a deep breath.
It was the very first long time they've kissed. Sakura took a deep breath and was about to unwrap her arms around Syaoran's neck when he tightened his hold to her waist making her looked up at her with questioning look. "No…" she knew what he was thinking.
He took sigh, "Fine" he answered. She smiled and walked towards Mei Lin, "Hi" she said as she fixes herself.
She took a gulp, "What had just happen?" she asked still can't believe what have just happen.
"What?" she asked back, really don't know what she was talking about.
"About you two" she answered.
"Oh… don't mind that" she said blushing.
"No! I can't just mind that! Wait, Sakura, tell me do you like my cousin?" she said looking straight at Sakura's eyes.
She thinks for a while, while staring at Mei Lin. "Well, sometimes I like him, sometimes I hate him and sometimes… I love him" she confessed making Mei Lin grin. She raised her eyebrow, "Why are you grinning? You look stupid" she added.
"Nothing" she said.
She rolled her eyes, "Whatever" she whispered. She walked back to their table and saw Yelan walking towards her making her gulp. She stood up greet her, "Good Evening, Mrs. Li!" she greeted as she bowed.
She smiled, "How are you now, Sakura?" she asked cheerfully.
"I am fine thank you!" she answered.
"That's great! Anyway, did you see my son, Xiao Lang?" she asked looking around.
She looked around too and spotted him talking with a group of men. "He's there, I'll call him, please wait here" she said.
"Thank you!" she smiled. 'I really like this woman! I hope my son like her too! She is the one I like for him" she thought as she sat on the chair and waited.
She smiled and walked towards Syaoran. "Excuse me, good-looking men; can I steal Syaoran for a while?" Sakura said with a smile.
"Sure" they all replied in unison.
She grabbed his arms and walked away from them. "Hey, your mother is here and she is finding you" she whispered.
He crossed his eyebrows. "Oh" was all he can say. They both walked to Yelan who were already talking with a group of old women. "Excuse me" Syaoran said making all of them looked at them.
"My son! Excuse me, I will just talk with my son and his partner" Yelan said making Sakura's eyes widened.
The three walked away from the crowd. "So, how's you, Xiao Lang?" she asked looking at her son with a smile.
"I am okay, mother" he answered. "Anyway, does Mei Lin invite you here?" he asked.
She nodded, "Yes she is" she answered. "Anyway, I am right that Sakura is your partner, right?" she asked.
He glanced at Sakura who was looking at the floor. "Yes, you are right, mother" he answered.
"Oh, I am so happy that you chose her to be your partner" Yelan replied making Sakura and Syaoran looked at each other.
"T-Thank you, Mrs. Li!" she smiled.
Yelan smiled back at her, "Xiao Lang, can you get me some food? Bring Sakura with you" she ordered then got back from her friends.
He took a sigh and walked towards the buffet table while Sakura following him. She grabbed a plate, spoon and fork and gave it to him. They didn't know that Yelan and her friends were talking about them, how much they like the two to be a couple.
"Here, give this to Mother" Syaoran said giving the plate with food to Sakura.
"Why me? She order you to get her some food and I am going to give that to her?" she answered.
"Whatever" he whispered as he walked towards his mother and gave it to her while Sakura was still following him. "Is there anything you need, Mother?" he asked politely.
Yelan looked up to see her son and smiled, "Yes, son, I still need something" she answered.
He gulped first before asking what that is.
"WE want you two to dance in the dance floor" she answered looking at her friends then looked back at Syaoran and Sakura.
"But Mother we just dance a while ago" he answered making Yelan eyed him. "Fine" he whispered under his breath.
They both went to the center of the room. Syaoran quickly pulled her closer and wrapping his arms around her waist while she just wrapped her arms around his neck and they started dancing. "Didn't you notice that every time that your mother is in a party with us she always ask us to dance?" she asked while resting her head on his shoulder.
"I notice that too, you know. I don't know why she always doing that" he answered while smiling.
"You don't like that?" she asked shyly.
"I don't like it because you kept on running away from me but I am intelligent and I know what to do" he joked making her laugh.
She glared at him, "You are so mean!" she said.
He laughed a little, "Really?" he asked. He was glancing at his mother who was busy staring at them while talking with her friends.
"Shut up" she muttered. She was thinking about their kiss, she really wanted to kiss him again. Every time they kissed it's so perfect.
"What are you thinking?" he asked looking at her.
She quickly shook her head, "You don't care" she answered. Suddenly, she saw an angry Suki walking at their direction. "Ooppss… I think we need to do something" she said.
"Why?" he immediately asked while looking at where Sakura who was looking and saw Suki. "I think so too" he said.
