Present Time- (Remember, Sakura's telling the story)
"Mommy, did you ever get back your bracelet?" Xiaohu asked, making Sakura nod, smiling. Right now, Xiaohu thought it was so cool how his parents met and they were telling everyone. For a regular child, they would be completely lost hearing what Sakura and Syaoran were talking about, but Xiaohu was pretty advanced for his age. But of course, still he didn't really understand a lot of what they were saying, but at least they met each other.
Everyone in the crowd was so desperate to hear how Syaoran and Sakura got together. They all knew it wasn't love at first sight. Everyone thought Syaoran didn't believe in love at first sight, but little did they know he did; he just had a weird way of expressing and showing it. They knew the story was going to be long since right now Syaoran didn't know what it meant to be in love and it took him a long time to understand it. Yelan looked at his son and smiled happily how much he had changed when he met Sakura. He never cared about anyone, until now. He loved his family and friends so much now.
"Mommy sure did, but mommy did drop the bracelet 2 more times. Lucky for me daddy picked it up every time it fell." Sakura said, making Syaoran think back to those times when he picked it up and looked around for Sakura.
"Xiaohu, Xiaolong, do you know the story about when a guy picks up a bracelet for a girl?" Syaoran asked, looking at their son, as they both held a clueless and blank look on their little adorable faces. "No, can we hear it?" Xiaolong asked, making Syaoran nod, smiling.
"There's this saying that many people believe in finding your one and only soul mate. When a girl drops a bracelet and a boy finds it and clasps it on her wrist, it's like a symbol of a little test that the boy has to do. If the bracelet falls off the girl's wrist and the same boy picks up it again, that boy and girl are destined to be together. That's only if no one else picks up the bracelet. If they do, the boy and girl are not meant to be together." Syaoran stated, remembering the day his wife told him that story.
Sakura looked at her husband with adoration. She couldn't believe he still remember that little story she told him. There wasn't a doubt in her mind that she and he were fated to be together.
"Did anyone else get to give you back the bracelet, Auntie Sakura?" Mei Lin's daughter, 5 year old, Rae asked, excitedly. She looked just like Mei Lin with the straight black hair that was tied up into pigtails. She had her father's glacier blue eyes and charming smile. With both parent's personality, no one was bored when they were near dear little Rae.
"Of course not sweet heart, your Uncle Syaoran would have killed all the bad guys." Jamie said, winking at his daughter, making Rae squeal in laughter. "You make me sound like a monster." Syaoran said jokingly, making Jamie grin. "Hey you acted like one before you met Sakura." came Jamie's good comebacks. "Fair enough." Syaoran replied making everyone laugh hearing their little guy to guy conversation.
"Auntie Sakura... go on... what else happened now?" Eriol's son, 5 years old, Eli asked, looking at Sakura with his big misty amethyst eyes. He looked just like his dad with the glasses, but he had his mother's gentle eyes. He just got his haircut; he had the mushroom haircut which made him look so kawaii. He was very smart for his age, because he has both his mother and father's genes.
"Well... you all know that you Uncle Syaoran now has my bracelet and..." Sakura continued as everyone got into a comfortable seat and began to listen to Sakura tell the story again.
"Ahh... where is it? I can't find it anywhere!" Sakura yelled, throwing all her belongings everywhere, as she searched through her whole room.
"Sakura, what are you... whoa!" Tomoyo called out, when she saw a pillow flying towards her face, but quickly moved away before it met for an impact. "Sakura, what's going on? You're destroying your room!" she said again, as Sakura turned around and looked at Tomoyo desperately.
"Tomoyo did you see my bracelet? The one my parents gave to me before they died? Please tell me you have it!" Sakura practically beg, making Tomoyo shake her head.
"Sakura, did you lose it? That's the only thing you have left from you parents. Did you search everywhere, maybe it's in you pocket." Tomoyo said, knowing how important that bracelet was to Sakura. "No, it's not. I searched everywhere, and I can't find it. I remember I still had it on when I was talking to Syaoran last night." Sakura said, about to cry.
"Sakura, don't panic. I'll call Eriol and tell him to look around for it. I'm sure its right under your nose Sakura. Look harder, it's gotta be somewhere. It couldn't have just unclasp from your wrist and walk away." Tomoyo said before leaving, making Sakura nod, as she tried to calm down and sat on her bed, trying to think back to the last time she saw it.
"It's gotta be here somewhere... it's just gotta be here somewhere... please kami-san." Sakura begged, her eyes beginning to get teary.
"Mr. Li, aren't you going to the meeting that is held in a few minutes?" Syaoran's secretary asked, seeing her boss come out of his room; looking like he was going to leave now. She looked over at the clock that was hanging on the wall and noticed it was too early for Syaoran to leave. She always knew that her boss never left his office until around 9 o' clock and right now, it was only a quarter past 5.
"No... cancel that meeting or get Eriol to attend it. I have something important to do." Syaoran said, passing by his secretary; not saying another word to her. 'God... sometimes you just want to fire her ass up for being so organized.'
Syaoran walked over to the elevator and pressed the down arrow button; waiting patiently for the elevator to come. He only had one thing in mind and that was to see a certain person right now; just the two of them, with no one to interrupt them. He was going to get what he wanted from yesterday and no one was going to stop him... no one... (S: Whoa... spine chilling isn't it... wouldn't you like it if Syaoran thought about u like that? )
He sighed; trying to be patient when waiting for the elevator. Getting impatient, he stuffed his hands inside his pocket and all of a sudden came in contact with something cold and small inside. He pulled out the material out and saw what it was; Sakura's bracelet. He remember picking it up yesterday when she left. This was the reason why he was leaving work to see her. It might cost his work place millions of dollars, but he didn't care.
The elevator doors soon opened, as Syaoran walked inside, leaning on the walls as the doors closed in front of him. He looked over to side and saw the walls made of steel so he could see his reflection. He ran his hands through his messy hair and was pleased at what he saw. He knew he was hated by the male population, but he didn't care... he was loved by the female population and he damn well knew that. The doors soon opened again as he walked out and was in the lobby of his building. He walked over to his Lexes 5000 and began to speed to Sakura's penthouse located in Hiiragizawa Five Star Hotel.
"WHAT THE HELL!!! I THOUGHT I HAD MORE MONEY THAN THIS!!!" Sakura yelled, looking at her bankbook. As you all know, she had lost her bracelet, she thought she would have gone to the Hong Kong mall and try to buy one again. She knew it was a rare bracelet, but hopefully they would have it. she looked at her bankbook and nearly died, seeing she didn't even have enough money to support herself for a month.
"Sakura, what the matter?" Tomoyo asked, rushing into the room with Eriol next to her. "We heard you scream. What's wrong?" Eriol asked, seeing Sakura about to cry.
"How did I lose all my money so fast?! I barely have enough money for myself to last a month!" Sakura yelled, showing Eriol and Tomoyo her bankbook.
"Sakura, you haven't been working a lot. You need a job!" Eriol said, looking at Sakura like an older brother. "I'm looking for one, but they don't want me. I don't have the experience!" Sakura spoke, slumping in her bed.
"Don't worry Sakura; everything's going to be okay. You've got Eriol and me right next to you. Even if you don't have money, we'll both support you! Stop thinking so much Sakura; you're tired, why don't you sleep for a while?" Tomoyo asked, brushing Sakura's bangs off her face. "Tomoyo and I will leave you alone, in fact we'll leave the penthouse so you can be by yourself for a few hours." Eriol said, making Sakura nod slowly, as they left her room and closed the door behind them.
"Eriol, I don't think I should leave Sakura behind, what happens if she needs me?" Tomoyo asked when they walked into the living room.
"Let Sakura be, she's stressed out right now. She wants to be by herself and clear everything in her mind right now. You told me about her bracelet problem... that was the only thing she had left of her family and she lost it. I have a pretty good idea what she's feeling right now. Let her have some time alone." Eriol said, making Tomoyo nod, agreeing with him when all of a sudden, his cell phone began to ring.
"Sorry..." Eriol said, taking the phone off his holder and turned his back to Tomoyo as he answered the phone. "WHAT! Where is Li then!? Fine... I'll be there in a few minutes..." Eriol said, closing his phone as he looked sadly at Tomoyo.
"What's wrong Eriol? Do you have to go?" Tomoyo asked, seeing the sad expression on Eriol's face. "One of my clients called and told me Syaoran didn't show up for his meeting so I have to go for him. He knows he can lose millions of dollars by doing this!" Eriol said angrily, running his hand through his silky hair.
"Then go Eriol... I don't mind." Tomoyo said, making Eriol look at her sadly, then come up with a solution. "I have an idea, have you ever been to a meeting?" Eriol asked, making Tomoyo raise a brow.
"You're not suggesting me to come with you right?" Tomoyo asked, backing away from Eriol who had a twinkle in his eyes. "Aww come on Tomoyo after the meeting you and me can go anywhere you want. You pick... even in the bedroom. I won't mind that at all." Eriol teased, making Tomoyo's whole body turn red.
"Eriol Hiiragizawa... what that mouth of yours." Tomoyo scolding playfully, seeing Eriol wink, as he grabbed her hand and left.
'Why does everything have to happen to me? Ever since mother, father, and Touya died, I've tried to be strong and independent, but it's too hard. I can't live like this anymore. I need someone who will help me, who will care for me! I can't always take care of myself and act like nothing going on when it feels like the world is going to fall on me. Why did you all have to leave me alone in this world!? Why couldn't you stay here with me!? I wouldn't be like this right here, right now! I thought you all loved me and you all promised to stay with me!" Sakura thought sadly as she stuffed her head inside her pillow and felt all her powers drain out of her. Her eyes soon began to close when all of a sudden, the doorbell rang, waking her up. (S: guess who it is!!! squeals!!!)
She got up quickly when she heard the person press the bell again and got off her bed. She ran over to her mirror and fixed herself up a little before rushing to the door and opening it. She felt a vibe all over her body about something. It was a weird feeling... like her stomach was empty and she felt hot all over. She didn't know who was at the door, but she placed her hands on the knob and opened the door, grasping at who she saw.
On the other side of the door was a man about 24 years old, leaning on the side, with his amber eyes grazing at Sakura. He had a devilish grin outlining his lips as he scanned the woman right in front of him. His hands were inside his pockets and his hair was as usual a mess, but his body form was amazing. Even though he was wearing his suit from work, his white dress shirt was thin, so Sakura could see all his muscles and wife beater.
"Syaoran..." Sakura grasped, feeling her cheeks burn up as she looked at the chestnut haired man right in front of her. All her depression and sorrow in her mind was all replaced with the events that happened yesterday night.
"Well are you just going stand there or let me in?" his deep voice asked, spending chills down her back. Syaoran looked deeply at Sakura and knew she was already falling for him. He was going to get what he wanted in a few moments.
"Uh... sure... come in..." Sakura said shakily, as she opened the door more wider and let Syaoran step into the room.
"Would you like anything to drink?" Sakura asked, tugging her t shirt tightly. "Anything's fine." Syaoran said, turning around to look at Sakura completely. There she was standing right in front of him wearing a pair of jeans and a baby t-shirt. Her hair was let down and her emerald eyes shone. But he could detect something walking past Sakura... her aura or vibe he got around her was sad. For a few moments, his eyes actually showed a pang of emotions and he actually cared about her.
"Have a seat... I'll make coffee..." Sakura shuttered, feeling the eyes of Syaoran Li on her as she walked into the kitchen. Was Syaoran actually going to sit and wait as Sakura made coffee... hell no.
Syaoran refused Sakura's offer as he walked into the kitchen and sat on the counter; knowing full well Sakura knew he was sitting there. "Why not sit in the living room? It's much more comfortable... I'll be out in a few minutes." Sakura said, trying to keep her cool. All the hair on her back stood up, feeling Syaoran's eyes move up and down.
"I rather sit here... were you doing something important before I came?" Syaoran asked when Sakura turned around. "No... I had nothing to do." Sakura said masking her face with a smile that she mastered years ago. She turned around and took out two mugs from the cabinet when all of a sudden she felt someone behind her. She quickly turned around and grasped seeing Syaoran standing right there.
"Syaoran what are you doing here?" Sakura asked, backing away from Syaoran when she felt the counter on her back. "Do I scare you?" Syaoran asked, his breath lingering Sakura's cheek.
"Why would you say that?" Sakura asked shakily, as Syaoran advanced closer to her. Syaoran took his last step, as his hard body came in contact with her soft one; sending electricity through both their bodies. "Syaoran what are you doing?!"
"Just say it Sa... ku...ra..." Syaoran whispered emphasizing each part of her name, as he leaned down closer to Sakura. "Syaoran... I..." Sakura said, as she felt Syaoran's playboy spell cast on her. She was losing control of herself and she felt her eyes closing slowly.
Next thing she knew, she felt Syaoran's hands hold the back of her head in place as his lips came crashing down on her roughly and aggressively. Syaoran forcefully shoved his tongue inside Sakura's mouth as he tasted her sweet honey essence. His tongue wrapped around hers as he explored this new territory he had never been before, taking full control on her. Sakura's eyes tightly shut together as Syaoran pushed her back against the counter and pushed his body against hers, feeling her breasts push against his hard body.
Sakura let out a pleasuring moan into Syaoran's ear, as the broke apart from the kiss with the lack of oxygen. Syaoran's lips traveled down to her neck as he sucked on it and left bite marks too. She wrapped his arms around Syaoran's neck and played with his soft hair. Never in her life did she feel like this. Never in her life did she feel so much excitement from a male.
Her sex drive was going crazy and she wanted to be with Syaoran right now. She wanted him to touch her in places where no one had ever touched her before. She forced her body on his as his hands traveled down her body. His hands slowly caressed her sides and his thumb felt the side of her breast making her bit her lips from erupting. Moving to her waist and then sliding down hips and over to the zipper of the jeans where he pushed his hands hard against it making her lose all her control and scream with ecstasy.
Syaoran could sense that Sakura was getting wet and it was time to take this cherry blossom's innocence. He fingered the zipper as he pulled it down expertly. He moved back up where again he captured Sakura's lips harshly. He knew she liked his roughness and he was going to give her the time of her life right here right now in the kitchen counter. He felt her small hands fumble around with his belt and was pleased at what she was doing. Going further, his hands felt her ass as he squeeze them tightly and lifted her up onto the counter making her yelp seeing how strong he was; picking her up like a feather.
Sakura slowly opened her eyes as she looked down and saw the hungriness in Syaoran's eyes. Her breathing labor was and she was impatient that Syaoran was taking his time doing what he was best at. She wanted him inside of her now and she wasn't going to wait. She pulled Syaoran towards her by his tie as she flashed him a seductive smile, making him groan inwardly.
"Rough aren't we?" Syaoran teased, his breath lingered her neck as he nibbled on her ear. "I want you now..." Sakura moaned out, loosening his tie before getting it off him and throwing it aside. "Touch me..." Sakura demanded, beginning to work on his neck with a bite mark.
"Patience..." Syaoran spoke, as his hands went under her baby t-shirt and felt her soft skin. He was about to go up further when all of a sudden, Syaoran's cell phone began to ring, snapping Sakura back to reality. Her senses were now awake and realized what she what she was doing was completely wrong. She quickly got off the counter and walked to the other side, as Syaoran growled angrily and answered the phone.
"What do you mean?!" Syaoran growled, making Sakura wince, hearing his tone of voice he used to other people. He turned around and looked at Sakura, making her feel self- conscience as she walked into the living; giving him privacy. As she walked into the hallways, she passed a mirror that was hanging on the wall and saw a glimpse of herself. Her lips were swollen and her hair was a mess. She looked closely at her neck and saw it was red and had a few black and blue marks.
'Oh my god... what did I just do... I'm not like this? Why did I let Syaoran do this to me? Why didn't I stop him? What is wrong with me? Do I really want to have sex this much to let him take control of me like this? What am I becoming? I never let any guy do this to me! I never even let them kiss me! Why did I let Syaoran Li of all people touch me like that? And why did I want him to continue and let him go all the way?!' Sakura thought as she began to panic and went to the living sitting down stiffly.
"You're tell me that I have to go to Tokyo because I missed one freaking meeting? Are you kidding with me Hiiragizawa?" Syaoran yelled, about to break his phone from angriness.
"Syaoran, everyone has agreed for you to take over your building there in Tokyo. It's not going to be long, like only about a week or so. Besides, I'm going to come along. You're going to lose millions if you don't attend that meeting there. You're lucky I saved your ass today. Where the hell are you right now that was so important you had to cancel your meeting?" Eriol asked on the other phone, making Syaoran smirk, as he reached in his pocket and took out Sakura's bracelet. He walked over to the counter and placed it neatly; visible for Sakura to see it.
"Hey, we're leaving the same day Daidoji and Kinomoto is leaving right?" Syaoran asked, remembering what they said yesterday night. "Yea, that's why I'm coming too. Why are you so interested all of a sudden?" Eriol asked, knowing full well his best friend was planning something.
"Alright... I'll go to that meeting in Tokyo. Maybe this won't be so bad after all." Syaoran said, fingering the bracelet as he looked at his watch and saw it was nearly time to go home. "Just what are you planning Li?" Eriol asked his friend, calling him by his last name.
"I'll explain later... I'm coming home now." Syaoran said, closing his cell phone, as he walked outside to the living room, seeing Sakura blushing brightly.
"I have to go now. I enjoyed today, I think we're going to have fun together next time. See you soon babe." Syaoran said, making Sakura fume. What did he think she was... his play toy? Sakura was about to yell at him, when all of a sudden, he caught her lips in his for a few moments, making Sakura shut up. After a few seconds, he backed away and walked over to the door, letting himself out, with a satisfied grin on his face.
Sakura just stood there dumbfounded, as she stared at the door Syaoran Li just walked out of. Anger began to boil all over her body hearing what he said. What did he think she was... a slut? He sounded so confident that there was going to be a next time. The tone he used to talk to her send shivers down her spine thinking about it.
That jackass, she was going to yell at him so badly the next time she saw him. Sakura pulled on her hair as she went back inside the kitchen, going back to her unfinished coffee. As she walked past the counter, she noticed something shimmer on the bottom of her eyes. She looked over and grasped seeing it was her bracelet. She quickly ran over and picked it up, examining if it was hers, and it was. How did it get here? She looked for her bracelet everywhere and it was just laying here on the kitchen counter... no way!
All of a sudden, an image of the chestnut, golden-eyed man floated into her mind. He had it all this time! This was the reason why he came here in the first place, not because he wanted to feel her out, but because he wanted to return her possessions to her. She quickly gathered up all her courage and ran out the penthouse, seeing if Syaoran Li had left already.
She pressed the elevator button quickly as the doors opened. She stormed inside and pressed the lobby button repeatedly, almost breaking the button. As the doors opened, she ran outside and looked around, seeing if she could spot Syaoran anywhere, but there was no luck. She sighed deeply... why couldn't he just give it to her in person? She would've thanked him so much. She would make sure next time she saw him; he would know how thankful she was.
As she turned around to press the elevator door again, she noticed a white envelope stuck in between the two doors. She pulled the envelope out as she looked at the gold writings, "To Sakura Kinomoto." Who would be writing to her? Not a lot of people knew her in Hong Kong. She tore opened the envelope and pulled out the fancy card, opening to the inside. There it wrote,
"I know you saw the bracelet and that's why you're here looking for me now, right? I know it means a lot to you and I'm returning what's yours to you. Next time you see me, I'm sure you'll thank me. I prefer kisses and stuff related to that. We'll continue where we left off from a few moments ago, I promise you that. Til next time babe... Syaoran Li."
"Damn that Li..." Sakura whispered, almost beginning to get teary. She couldn't help but to form a little smile, as she held the card close to her heart. Maybe this Syaoran Li wasn't so bad. Who knows... maybe she should get to know him more and see how things turn out.
Author's Note: HEY!!! It's Sheena again, Jackie's being a lazy bum and hasn't worked on this story in weeks!!! This chapter was made by yours truly, me! Jackie didn't even help... damn her. -.-
There's probably a lot of mistakes in this chapter, and I'm really sorry if there is. It's 1:34 right and I'm really tired. I've also going through a lot of mixed emotions for this guy I like, so I haven't written my best in this chapter. If anyone know what I'm going through with these feelings, please do help me!
Ahh!!! School's starting and Jackie and I haven't been in contact in weeks. We have new lives now, and we're meeting new people. I wanted to get this chapter out as possible before I'm crammed up with homework. Jackie doesn't know this chapter is being posted up, so maybe next chapter, she'll write it all. I'm outs now... Til next time...
Don't forget to RR!! Thank you!!!
