"Is this the place?" Jamie asked, when Eriol pulled up at a hotel or some sort of huge building. Eriol turned off the engine and leaned over to the filled passenger seat his black Mercedes, which just happened to be Jamie Lee. Looking over at the building number and the street name, Eriol look back at the paper Tomoyo had given him that special day they saw each other for the first time in years to see if it was the right place.
"It should be. This is the only hotel on this block, unless if you can find another one." Eriol said, raising an eyebrow at the apartments and stores before glancing back at Jamie. "Well? Find any?" Eriol asked Jamie, who just shook his head. "Yeah, thought so." Eriol said, grinning and shutting the car engine down before he got out of the car with Jamie and Syaoran.
"This is going to waste my time... I could be doing something else right now..." Syaoran growled, putting his sunglasses on as he crossed the street swiftly. 'Like finding out who that girl was... man she was hot.' He thought, as an image of Sakura appeared on his mind. 'Those emerald eyes.'
"What emerald eyes???" Eriol asked, as Syaoran looked back at him with a lost expression on his face, blinking in confusion and not realizing that he said his last thought out loud.
"This girl that he bumped into when he was about to go into your hotel. Say Eriol, you know any of your costumers that have emerald eyes, kinda like honey colored hair and a nice ass body?" Jamie asked, making Syaoran glare at him, but couldn't help, but to feel a little happy hearing Jamie ask the question that has been haunting him in the past few hours.
"No, I don't think so. I don't really pay attention to the costumers. I just check the bills and stuff... don't have time." Eriol said, trying to think about some of the people he had bumped into when he went to his hotel. 'It can't be Sakura, can it?'
"Not a lot of people have green eyes here in Hong Kong, much less emerald eyes." Jamie commented, making Syaoran nod, as they all went into the hotel and was greeted by an usher smiling at them.
"Good evening gentlemen. How may I help you?" the usher asked, bowing down to them, as Eriol smiled and walked forward, showing the usher their backstage pass.
"What level is Miss Daidoji having her rehearsal?" Eriol asked politely as the usher continued to smile at him.
"You must be Mr. Eriol Hiiragizawa and these must be your friends. Ms. Daidoji told me she would be having guests for the day. She's on floor number 5. Once you get out of the elevator, just walk straight and you'll easily find where she is holding her rehearsal for now." the usher said, making Eriol smile as he pressed the elevator button.
"Thank you..." Eriol said, watching the elevator doors open before all of the three men walked into it, pressing the button with the number 5 on it. Once the elevator door closed, Jamie quickly ran over to a side and checked himself on the mirror walls; fixing his spiky hair a little.
"What the hell are you doing, dumbass?" Syaoran yelled, hitting Jamie on the head as he took off his sunglasses; revealing his burning golden eyes.
"What the fuck!? Not the hair! How many times do I have to say that?!" Jamie yelled.
"Yea, yea, yea... everyone knows no one can touch your hair. But why so eager to look good? You act like a goddamn girl for God's sake." Eriol asked, rolling his eyes, but making Jamie glare at him playfully. "I am not a girl! Besides, my girl is into this fashion thing too. Have to look my best for her." was the playboy's simple reply to Eriol, who just brushed off Jamie's reply.
"You, of all people have a girlfriend? What ever happened to your famous saying, 'I don't need girlfriends, all I need are one night stands.' Don't make me laugh, Jamie Lee." Syaoran said
"Syaoran maybe you should tidy up too. Do something about that hair of yours." Jamie said, making a face when he glanced at Syaoran's hair, crossing his arms on his chest as he rested on the wall with one foot resting against the wall.
"NO LEANING ON THE WALL! YOU'LL GET IT DIRTY!!! AND GET THAT DIRTY FOOT OF MY DAMN WALL!!!!!" came a booming voice, making Jamie quickly move off the wall and look around, scared.
"Who the hell was that!?" Jamie asked, looked around, seeing no one else.
"It sounds like that usher guy." Syaoran said easily, as he went over to the camera on the top corner and waved his hands over it before turning back to look at Jamie, smirking. "That's what you get for dissing my hair."
"I don't mean to be rude but..." the usher's voice said sweetly."BUT GET THE FUCK OFF THE WALL... YOU'RE NOT THE ONE WHO SPENDS HOURS CLEANING TO MAKE IT LOOK SPOTLESS!"
"Ah... we're here..." Eriol said, looking outside the elevator when the doors opened.
"Let's get out of here..." Jamie quickly responded, jumping over Eriol literally to get outside.
"Have a nice time..." the usher's friendly voice said over the mic, making all 3 men nearly fall down, anime style.
"Soooo...what's this about a man?" Tomoyo asked Mei Lin, while she sat in a chair provided in the dressing room, waiting for all the models to change. "I heard he was to die for."
"Of course he is. He is my man after all." Mei Lin answer, winking at Tomoyo while she pulled on her red satin dress. "And Mei Lin Rae is hard to satisfy, isn't she?" Mei Lin said, giggling slightly at the thought of the ebony haired man with glacier blue eyes and that oh so fine body of his.
Tomoyo laughed and nodded, "Well, yeah you are Mei Lin Rae, but what is he like? Nice body, hair, face, eyes? C'mon, some description, please! We're best friends here and you never told me his goddamn name is."
"Mmmmm...not telling! Hah!" Mei Lin said, teasing Tomoyo and laughing.
"What aren't you telling?" Sakura said, walking out from behind a set of curtains in her emerald ball gown that matched her eyes perfectly, showing the skills of the designer behind it.
"Mei Lin's man a.ka. The Man That Stole Mei Lin's Heart, But Will Never Be Introduced." Tomoyo replied, emphasizing each word she spoke, standing up to help the two main models with their dresses; stepping back and smiling. "Better..."
"Who is this "Mystery Man", Mei Lin?" Sakura asked in a playful tone, nudging Mei Lin in her ribs gently causing her to turn into the color of dress.
"No one you guys need to know about...! Besides, if we're together long enough, I'm sure you'll all meet one day. And will be 'introduced.'" Mei Lin answered, accentuated the last part and looked at Tomoyo, sighing. "Why do you want to see him so badly anyways?"
Right when Tomoyo was about to give her answer, one of her workers knocked on the door and popped her head in and said, "Ms. Daidoji, you have a visitor outside waiting for you. His name is Eriol Hiiragizawa and he has 2 other visitors with him."
"Thank you, Raine, you can go back outside and check on all the electronics for now, please?" Tomoyo asked, smiling at her new worker.
"Yes, Ms. Daidoji." Raine said in reply, bowing and moving out of the door, walking past the group of visitors and smiling at them. "Ms. Daidoji would be out shortly."
"Thank you miss." Eriol said, flashing Raine a charming smile, making Raine blush madly.
"Must both you and Jamie always flirt with every girl in a 5 feet radius from you." Syaoran muttered quietly, in a slightly annoyed voice while he leaned against the counter, waiting for Eriol's woman to come out and greet them. "Besides, isn't your woman in that room, about 10 feet away from us? Are you mentally challenged to think about flirting with another girl when she was in the same building? Or is it the fact that you're suicidal?"
"You shouldn't be talking, Syaoran. I see you flirting with other girls while your date is right next to you." Eriol retorted, glaring at Syaoran lightly. "Anyways, Tomoyo isn't my girl yet...even though I wish she was."
Tomoyo stopped in her tracks when she heard those words come out of her childhood crush. She couldn't help but to feel the whole atmosphere turn hot, as her pale cheeks turned tinted red. 'He's probably just joking so Syaoran will stop making fun of him. I'll just act like I never heard that.'
Just then, Jamie looked around and spotted Tomoyo Daidoji; youngest female designer to storm the whole world with her creations. He quickly walked between Syaoran and Eriol; poking Eriol in the forehead, tilting his head towards Tomoyo, and at the same time, kicking Syaoran in the lower shin so they both would shut up.
The two fighting friends quickly glanced away from each other and towards the lavender haired woman with shimmering amethyst eyes in Eriol's mind she was an amethyst (J: I was about to type purple eyed goddess!!! . scary isn't it? heh, Sheena was cracking up over that haha.) eyed goddess from his dreams while Syaoran and Jamie just saw her as a normal...well maybe above average woman with pale porcelain skin.
"Eriol!" Tomoyo said excitedly, pretending to just step into the room. "I'm so glad you could have made it to the rehearsal!" Tomoyo smiled and walked closer to the three men, standing in front of them. "Hopefully you would enjoy the show while you're here even though its just a rehearsal."
"I'm sure we will. By the way, these are my friends, Syaoran Li and Jamie Lee. They're close friends of mind and I was hoping you didn't mind me bringing them along with me?" Eriol tilted his head slightly and smiled at Tomoyo, entranced by her beauty.
"Not at all, I gave you more than one backstage pass remember and told you to bring in all your friends." Tomoyo exclaimed, making Eriol blush and nod.
"Well Tomoyo, I sure hope we get front row seats. I really want to see all the gir-... all the designs you made." Jamie said, smiling cutely at the mistake he almost made. Tomoyo giggled at this young man; thinking he would be good with Mei Lin, but she already had someone already.
"Right this way, Jamie. And yes, you all get front row seats, today and tomorrow if you can make it." Tomoyo said brightly, making Jamie nod eagerly. "You can count on me to give you support tomorrow and the girls." Jamie replied proudly, as the two men sighed sadly at their friends. 'Even I'm not like this to girls.' Syaoran thought in his mind, shaking his head.
Tomoyo led the three men towards the runway room and placed them in the front row seats. "The show will begin in a few minutes." Tomoyo said, as Raine came back with drinks for the guys.
Tomoyo walked over to the stereos and looked through all her CDs; deciding which song she should use for this rehearsal. She finally found the perfect song, 'Crazy in Love' by Beyonce Knowles, and she was going to use it for tomorrow and for the rehearsal. She took the CD out of the case and placed it into the CD player. Glancing at Raine to make sure if the stereos were all working before smiling and nodding, and walked towards the dressing room; knocking on the door. "You guys ready in there?"
"Just about!" came the answer from behind the door before it opened fully to show all the models in two rows. They were wearing simple dresses but their high heels that they were going to wear for tomorrow's model show.
Tomoyo quickly looked over each one of them before letting them walk out of the door, to behind the runway, each waiting their turn to go on. Tomoyo's head popped out from the curtains and gave two thumbs up to Raine as Raine returned the gestured and pressed the button to start the CD and the stereos. Soon music boomed through the whole room, as Eriol, Syaoran, and Jamie rested on their seats and waited for the show to entertain them.
MUSIC
One by one, girls started to come out as they began to walk in a seductive way, noticing the 3 sexy men sitting in front of them. Each girl looked at one another before an evil smirk appeared on their faces. One by one, the girls soon began to strut their way down the walkway, walking in the way that made guys gaped and drool, their hips moving side to side more than it need to. Tomoyo shook her head in disbelief, but quickly calmed down when she saw Mei Lin was next.
Moving down the walkway, Mei Lin walked in the same that everyone did, strutting her stuff and raising an eyebrow when she saw the one and only, Jamie Lee, sitting in the front with two other men. Mei Lin purposely stopped at the end of the walkway where the three was sitting at, leaning over and winking while blowing Jamie a kiss, teasing him; her long hair falling into her face, framing it and making her like a exotic beauty that everyone wanted, but was forbidden to have.
MUSIC
Having finished with teasing Jamie, Mei Lin moved away from the end of the walkway, spinning around, causing her dress to move around with her movement, making the slit on the side of her leg to open wide; showing her long and pale leg to the three men, one gaping and about to die of shock form his girlfriend while his friends just sat there, watching the practice like everything was fine.
Mei Lin finished up and walked towards the backstage, giggling at the expression on her boyfriend's face, at first surprised that he was even there, but then felt an urge to be playful in her and that made her decide to tease him a bit, hopefully Tomoyo and Sakura didn't notice this or else she would be teased till the end of time. But the look on Jamie's face, anything would have been okay, seeing how that comical expression amused her to no end, making her wish she could have taken a picture of it. 'Kodac Moment! Hehehe'
MUSIC
"D-Did you see that?!?!?! Damn she was just fine!!" Jamie exclaimed, pointing towards the curtain where Mei Lin disappeared behind.
"See what?" Eriol replied, glancing around and looked at where Jamie was pointing. "What? The curtain? Jeez, why the hell are you yelling about a curtain for? Of course, we all see it, Jamie. It's huge and red, anyone could see it even if its blurry when I take off my glasses. Why are you even interested in a curtain?"
"No! Not that, you idiot!!! I meant that girl that just pass by us with the red satin dress and black long hair. The pretty one!!!" Jamie said, rolling his eyes at his friend's stupidity. "Syaoran didn't you see her?! Or am I just dreaming???" 'What the hell is my girlfriend doing?! Why is she even in a modeling show for god's sake, she never even told me about it! That's so not fair!!'
"No...you're not dreaming about that girl. Why do you even care? Do you have a thing for her or something?" Syaoran answered, raising both eyebrow at Jamie, who just shook his head. "Mmm..." Syaoran frowned slightly at Jamie's reply. "I think you do." He said, smirking. "Is it the girlfriend that me and Eriol been asking you about for so long?"
"No! Just shut up..." Jamie scowled, munching on his bag of peanuts that Raine had provided him earlier and looked at the runway again; watching the rehearsal again and avoiding his friends' questioning looks. "Stop staring..." Jamie muttered, glaring at the two lightly.
"Right, right." Syaoran smirked, looking away when Jamie started throwing peanuts at him and Eriol for staring at him, blinking when he saw the woman he called, 'Emerald Eyes.'
MUSIC
Sakura stepped out from behind the curtains, a bit nervous after hearing about the three mysterious men that came to see the rehearsal. 'If I'm this nervous today, I can't imagine how nervous I would be when the whole room will be filled. And Tomoyo had to make me the last model with the best design. God, I hope I don't fail her...'
Sakura started moving down the walkway, walking in a straight line, but still moving her hips like all the other models did to the song, 'Crazy In Love', only she sang the song in her head to step to the beat of the song. Sakura stopped in front of Syaoran, eyes widening in surprise when he recognized him as the man that she bumped him in that morning.
Syaoran continued to gaze at his emerald- eyed angel, completely lost in her essence. He watched her stop in front of him, leaning forward before twirling around, both not noticing the peanuts littered on the walkway from Jamie throwing them around before.
Everything seemed to happen in slow motion for Syaoran after that, from watching Sakura twirling around half way before tripping on one of Jamie's peanuts, doing a few hand movements, and then falling backward towards him. When Syaoran saw that she was having trouble trying to keep her balance his heart quickly skipped a beat.
It was like she actually cared for his girl and wanted to protect her other than himself. He quickly got up and caught her just in time, but Sakura was too much of an impact and both of them fell back onto the chair with Sakura on Syaoran's lap. After that, all the thing surrounding seemed to fast forward back to normal speed.
Syaoran blinked in surprise when he felt Sakura in his lap. Slowly, Sakura's eyes opened, revealing her emerald eyes that shown so brightly in the light. Syaoran this time got a crystal clear look o her eyes and she was sure as hell a site to see. Jamie was right, not a lot of girls had green eyes, much less emerald eyes.
None of his other 'girlfriend' had ever had emerald eyes like Sakura's. Her honey hair hung down low from Syaoran's lap. It tickled him a little, but he seem to ignore all of that, being in a trance staring at those luscious eyes.
Syaoran could also smell her perfume that found its way up to his nose; tingling his whole body. It smelled nice... it wasn't too strong, and it didn't smell bad at all. If his senses were right, it smelled like cherry blossoms, and it seem to fit her so well. This was the same exact girl that he bumped into today, only this time the girl was wearing a veerrrry skimpy dress that outlined her virgin body perfectly.
Eriol quickly stood up and smacked Jamie on the head for throwing the peanuts onto the stage by accident and ruining his crush's rehearsal before turning around quickly to look at the girl who feel onto Syaoran's lap, and grasped when he realized who it was.
"Sakura...Sakura! Are you alright?" Eriol said frantically, waving his hand in front of the dazed girl's face. He could see his childhood friend's flaming up and she was sure as hell embarrassed. Eriol frowned when he saw that this wasn't helping Sakura before gripping her shoulder, shaking her slightly, sighing in relief when he saw Sakura coming to it again.
"W-what?? Eriol what are you doing?!" Sakura gasped out, feeling her whole body shake from Eriol's shakes. "Ow...Eriol, stop it, I'm fine!" Sakura pouted at Eriol, not noticing that she was in Syaoran's lap still.
Tomoyo rushed over and leaned over Sakura before smiling in alleviation, "I think she's fine if she's still sitting in your friend's lap, Eriol. I never knew you liked to do that, Sakura. Thought you were more innocent hehe." Tomoyo teased and shakes her head, smiling.
Jamie stared at Sakura and Tomoyo in worry. "I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to do that, I was just throwing them at Eriol and Syaoran for making fun of me...seriously I didn't mean to do that at all!!" Jamie said with sorrow, putting on his best angelic expression, blinking at Sakura and Tomoyo innocently.
Sakura blushed at Tomoyo's comment before laughing at Jamie's expression with Tomoyo. "It's fine, I'm sure you didn't mean to do it anyways and don't worry, I always throw around peanuts at Mei Lin and Tomoyo anyways...don't worry about Tomoyo, she forgives you too, right Tomoyo?" Sakura asked, still blushing lightly and slid off Syaoran's lap shyly, moving away to stand next to Tomoyo. If Sakura wasn't that naïve, she would have felt that one of Syaoran's hands were on her ass.
"Of course I do! You are Eriol's friends anyways," Tomoyo said, smiling happily, "We just have to make sure that no one brings in any food tomorrow. Other than that, the rehearsal went better than I hope." Tomoyo laughed, glancing at the four in front of her.
"Yea, you really have a talent Tomoyo. All the dresses were excellent." Jamie said, making Eriol nod in agreement. "Thank you, and which one did you think was the best one out of them all?" Tomoyo asked, making Jamie think for a second. "The red one... it was just perfect." Jamie said. He actually didn't mean the dress, he meant the woman that was wearing it.
"Yea, I liked that one too. I let my best friend wear that one. She's a real beauty right?" Tomoyo asked, remembering it was Mei Lin who wore that dress. She looked into Jamie's glacier blue eyes and saw it had lust inside of them. 'Maybe this is Mei Lin's man.'
"She sure is." Jamie said proudly. Tomoyo smiled when she looked at Eriol and saw that he held out his watch for her to see. Just then, she realized that she still had the date with him tonight. She had to rush home, take a quickly shower, get changed, and then put on all her make up. Did she even have enough time... she barely had 2 hours.
"Tomoyo, can we all get changed and then go home? It's already 6 o' clock." Sakura asked, looking at the clock on the wall. Unaware to her, one pair of glowing amber eyes never left her. She looked around and noticed that man that she had fallen onto and smiled.
"I'm really sorry about before. I'm really clumsy sometimes. Please forgive me. I'm Kinomoto Sakura, and you are?" Sakura asked, smiling at Syaoran.
"Li Syaoran..." was Syaoran's simple answer, as Sakura frowned softly. 'He doesn't like to talk much.'
"Sakura's right... it's getting late. Go ahead and change Sakura. I'll be right there." Tomoyo said, making Sakura nod. "I'll pick you up at your penthouse at 8 alright?" Eriol asked, making Tomoyo blush and nod.
"It was a pleasure meeting all of you, hope you can come tomorrow." Tomoyo said, putting an arm around Sakura's shoulder. "We'll be here. Don't worry." Jamie said, making Tomoyo and Sakura's smile widen. "Great, we'll see you all tomorrow. Bye!" Tomoyo and Sakura chorused together, before walking back to the dressing room.
Unaware to Eriol and Jamie, Syaoran just leaned on the wall, as he intently stared at Sakura's retreating back, scanning her up and down, liking the view. 'You're my next victim... Kinomoto, Sakura.'
