Chapter 2- Meeting Touya Again
It was a week after Syaoran first came to Tomeoda High School. He and Sakura were now good friends. Eriol and Syaoran became best friends. Tomoyo and Eriol finally got together. They were now boyfriend and girlfriend. It was three more weeks until Kaho Mizuki and Touya Kinomoto's wedding. So now they were starting to meet at the Kinomoto house going over wedding details.
At these meetings Touya had always been absent. He had agreed to let Syaoran be a groomsman after a lot of convincing from Kaho and Sakura. Touya didn't really like Syaoran when he tutored him during the summer. Anyways, Kaho was on top of everything. They were going to have the wedding at the shrine where Kaho lived. Everyone still called Kaho Ms. Mizuki even though they were working a lot on the wedding. Sakura on the other hand got used to calling Ms. Mizuki by her first name.
Tomoyo was in charge of making the dresses, which was a great pleasure for her. She was always making some of Sakura's clothes. Okay, most of her clothes, but it wasn't weird because they were cousins. Kaho loved the clothes Tomoyo made and trusted her. Today, Tomoyo was getting the sizes of Kaho, Ayumi (Kaho's sister) and Sakura. She offered to do the tuxedos too but Touya had told Kaho that he was planning to rent them. You could tell Tomoyo was disappointed when Kaho told her. The guys still had to come though. They were in charge of putting everything into place.
Ayumi was busy on the phone ordering everything ahead of time and getting a minister. Yukito was there too. He was also helping with the stuff. Yukito had known both Touya and Kaho for a long time so he was preparing his speech for the toast. Sakura and Ayumi would also be giving one each because they were the closest siblings to the bride and groom. Sakura was getting help from Eriol and Tomoyo with it though.
"Kaho are you going with the traditional Japanese wedding or the American wedding?" Tomoyo asked.
"Well they're both great but I'd like the American wedding. My parents actually married in America with that style so I decided I wanted the same."
"That's so kawaii!"
"Okay Kaho you can get off the stool now that I've gotten your measurements. Do you want me to get your shoes too?"
"It's okay Tomoyo the shoes I can handle."
"Hai! Sakura your next since Ayumi-san's on the phone."
"Tomoyo I'm getting a pink dress right?" Sakura asked.
"Mizuki sensei said it would be pink so yes."
"Do you think I should wear the same jewelry that I have on now?"
"I could get you a new set Sakura. Actually I've already gotten you a new set."
"Really? You're great Tomoyo!"
"I know I am. Now stay still." Tomoyo was done with Sakura's measurements. Right when she finished Ayumi was ready for her to get measured.
"Ayumi-san you must be very busy with this wedding." Tomoyo said.
"Yes I am. And with the business I'm running. This is so stressing, but please don't tell Kaho. I want her to have the best wedding."
"Aw… that's so sweet Ayumi-san." After Tomoyo got the measurements from Ayumi, she gave Eriol a goodbye kiss and went home to start on the dresses.
Yukito and Ayumi were next to leave because they had a reservation at a restaurant for their date. Eriol and Syaoran stayed to help out more. Kaho was tired, but Touya was going to come over and talk about the wedding plans then take Sakura home. Eriol didn't have to get home soon because his sister was away and his pet cat went with her. Eriol was staying over at the Kinomoto's for the week so Touya was going to take him home too. Syaoran was about to go home when Kaho told him to stay.
"Don't you think that Touya should meet his groomsman Syaoran?" Kaho asked. Eriol and Syaoran both knew what she meant. She meant that if Syaoran liked Sakura he'd better get her brother's approval. Then again Syaoran couldn't say anything against his teacher.
"Yes Mizuki sensei I understand."
"Okay Syaoran. I'll get him to drop you off before they get home."
"Okay Ms. Mizuki." He was thankful that Eriol and Sakura would be with him. Just then Touya entered.
"Konnichiwa, kaijuu" He said to Sakura.
"I am not a monster!"
"Yes you are." Sakura stepped on his foot. Unlucky for him she was wearing heels.
"Ow you big footed kaijuu."
"Touya stop making fun of Sakura." Kaho said.
"Okay Kaho, but it's only because it's you telling me to."
"Touya this is Syaoran Li."
"The brat I tutored from Hong Kong?"
"Yes, but I don't think you should call him a brat."
"Okay Kaho but you're getting too demanding."
"Am I really?" Kaho asked. Touya couldn't respond to that so he went on to interrogate Syaoran.
"Syaoran you know you're my groomsman only because of Kaho right?"
"Yes Kinomoto-kun"
"You also know that if you touch my sister anytime else than the time you're expected to I'll break your bones right?"
"Yes Kinomoto-kun" Syaoran said not even wincing. This was getting Touya pissed.
"You also know that if you ruin my wedding or reception I'll literally kick you back to Hong Kong right?"
"Yes Kinomoto-kun" Syaoran knew that keeping his mouth shut from any wisecracks was the best thing to do.
"I guess you've really shaped up brat." Then he left Syaoran alone and started talking to Kaho.
Syaoran walked over to Sakura and Eriol. He earned a glare from Touya. Sakura was tired and was now leaning on Syaoran. Touya saw this and got up and said that it was time to go. In the car he had no choice but put Syaoran and Sakura in back because Eriol got carsick. They got to Syaoran's building in fifteen minutes. When the car stopped, Sakura woke up and said bye to Syaoran. Then Touya took them home.
They're dad was home watching T.V. He noticed them come in and warmed up the dinner he had prepared before. Sakura, Touya and Eriol ate in silence. Sakura thought that Touya was going to spend the night, but she was wrong. After dinner he left the house.
