CHAPTER 11
It was all over the news about the mystery man who grabbed Sakura and what he had said. Excellent, my plan is working.
---2 days later---
Tomoyo and Sakura finally decided on a wedding dress and bridesmaid's dresses. Now all that was left was to design Syaoron's tux, which proved to be difficult cause Syaoron was being difficult. They already decided on a white tux and Tomoyo had designed three different types of white tuxedos. Only problem being, Syaoron complains too much.
Syaoron walked out onto the runway the final prototype of Tomoyo's white tux. It wasn't white white, more of a vanilla color. Sakura looked as if she was looking at the perfect man. The tux matched her dress perfectly, and if Syaoron didn't like it, well that'd be too bad for him because he was wearing that one.
"What do you think Syaoron?" Tomoyo asked.
Syaoron looked at himself in the mirror and kept turning from side to side nodding.
"I like it. It's not stuffy like the other two. I'll wear this one." He replied
"YES!" Tomoyo and Syaoron just turned to Sakura with a shocked expression.
"Oops…" Sakura mumbled with a blush on her face.
So the couples wedding clothes were all done and ready. Tomoyo just wanted to make final adjustments to Sakura's wedding dress and Syaoron's tux. Next stop, the florists.
"Hello, may I help you?" The florist asked.
"Well, actually, we're just looking for flowers for a wedding. But we haven't got a precise date yet so we're just going to browse today." Sakura informed the kind lady.
"Oh, no problem. Would you like to see our wedding packages?"
"Yes that'd be most helpful." Sakura replied.
The florist brought out a large book filled with the different pictures of flowers they use and the different wedding options they could get. While Sakura looked at that, Syaoron started to wander around. Another florist followed him around in case he needed help with anything.
Syaoron came across cherry blossom flowers and red and pink roses.
"Can you shape the red roses into a heart shape and have the pink roses and cherry blossoms outlining it in a bouquet?" Syaoron asked.
"Of course Mr. Li. Would you like me to prepare the bouquet for you?" the second florist asked.
"Yes thank you."
Sakura continued to look through the book but couldn't find anything that she liked. She liked parts of different orders but she didn't find one that caught her eye.
" Excuse me?" Sakura called for the florist
"Yes miss?"
"Is it possible to make an order that isn't in this book?" Sakura inquired.
"Yes of course although, it will cost more." The florist answered.
"Oh, money won't be an issue." Sakura started making a list of all the flowers she wanted and what arrangements would go with each. When she finished she looked around for Syaoron and when she couldn't find him she figured he'd wandered outside. She thanked the lady and walked out to be greeted by a beautiful bouquet of red, pink roses and cherry blossoms and standing behind them was Syaoron.
"Syaoron?"
"For you milady." Syaoron bowed offering the bouquet which Sakura accepted and gave Syaoron a soft kiss on the lips.
"Thank you Syaoron, they're absolutely beautiful."
It was now April and it had been almost 3 months since Sakura had chosen a wedding dress and etc. The date was fixed to be on July 14; they had wanted a spring wedding but because of the business, it didn't work out that way. So a summer wedding it is. Flowers have been ordered, menu's been chosen, the church and reception hall reserved. Now all that was left was to make the seating arrangements and send out the invites. But first things first, make the guest list.
"What about your friends in New York? Do you want to invite any of them?" Syaoron asked.
"Umm…just a couple I guess. I don't talk to many of them anymore since I've moved to Japan." Sakura replied. "We should invite some of our business associates though right?"
"I've already added the important ones on to the list, and everyone in my family and yours." Syaoron told her.
Yelan and Syaoron's four sisters walked in to the room and looked at how battered they both looked.
"We'll take it from here Syaoron, why don't you two go eat and rest." Yelan took the papers from Syaoron's and Sakura's hands and went into her study with the four trailing behind her.
The next thing that Syaoron and Sakura felt were 5 pair of hands shoving them out of the study.
The door slammed behind them leaving a stunned couple.
Syaoron sighed and turned to Sakura, "Might as well go and relax." They went to their room and took a nice long nap.
---2hours Later---
"SAKURA I'M HERE WITH YOUR DRESS!" Tomoyo's voice rang throughout the Li Mansion.
Sakura still remained asleep but Syaoron bolted up to the sound of the screaming girl downstairs. Syaoron's eyes were wide open and he looked around.
"HEY SAKURA! GET YOUR BUTT DOWN HERE RIGHT NOW!"
Syaoron recognized that voice at once. He turned towards his sleeping soon-to-be wife and shook her awake.
"Sakura", Syaoron whispered, "Tomoyo's here with your wedding dress. Come on get up." He gave her a light kiss on the forehead as her eyes opened.
Sakura woke up and walked downstairs to greet Tomoyo. Since Syaoron wasn't allowed to see the dress, he decided to sleep some more.
"Hey Tomoyo. You finished the dress already? Dang you're fast." Sakura looked down to see her wedding dress in a bag and matching shoes and a jewelry box. "You got matching jewelry too?"
"Call it, my wedding gift to you." Tomoyo winked at her and the two friends walked into the living room to try on the clothes.
Sakura's dress was magnificent. (AN: but you don't get to know what the dress looks like till the wedding date) The dress fit perfectly, and accompanied with the new accessories that Tomoyo brought, Sakura looked like a porcelain bride doll. Too bad Syaoron wasn't allowed to see; he would've dropped dead.
"OMGSH SAKURA…you look absolutely GORGEOUS!" Tomoyo practically squealed as she circled Sakura a few times.
Sakura stared into the mirror and looked herself over. It was her dream dress come to life. Plus her veil and tiara topped it off. She looked like a royal princess bride.
"Tomoyo it's wonderful. It's even better than the prototype." Sakura continued to marvel at her dress.
"Well, I did make a few adjustments. I got some inspiration from Eriol." Tomoyo replied
"Hmm..I wonder how…" Sakura said suggestively.
"Hush Sakura."
Tomoyo decided that there were still some adjustments to be made so she took the wedding dress and veil back, but she left the accessories at Sakura's house since it wouldn't matter if Syaoron saw those. Just as Tomoyo left, Syaoron walked down the stairs, stretching and yawning.
"Tomoyo gone?" Syaoron asked.
"Yep…ahh you should've seen the dress. It looks so fantastic. Exactly how I pictured it but even better." Sakura continued thinking about her dress and the day she would be wearing down the aisle.
"As long as it comes off easily…" Sakura bopped him over the head before he could say another word.
"Hentai" She muttered as she went to the kitchen for some food.
---Saturday Night---
Sakura and Syaoron were attending a charity event for an orphanage chain that was all over Japan and China. The money was going to be used to set up computer systems in every orphanage in Japan to further improve the children's education. The event was an auction of several paintings and art pieces, one of a kind antiques, furniture, jewelry…etc.
Sakura and Syaoron were only two of the many billionaires who were going to attend. But of course, as two of the youngest and most attractive billionaires in the country, their actions were being more publicized then others. The event was talked about for weeks, and many people were excited to see what the most popular couple would purchase and donate.
As always, they both wanted to look fashionable. Sakura was wearing a long, royal blue gown that hugged her every curve. It was strapless on one side and the strap on the other side had a pink sequin pattern in the shape of a sakura blossom. The hem of her dress was aligned with white and pink sequins. The dress was simple but still looked classy and showed Sakura in the light she wanted. Her hair was twisted into an elegant bun with strands falling randomly, framing her face. She wore the jewelry set Syaoron had bought her for their year anniversary and was holding a matching bag in her right hand.
Syaoron was wearing a dark blue suit without a tie. He was wearing a lighter blue collared button-down shirt with the first two buttons left unbuttoned. His pants had iron creases, giving him the sharp, business look. His hair was messy as always but that's what distinguished him from all the other men. His suit jacket was slung over his left shoulder, held by his hand, and his other hand was firmly holding Sakura's. He gave her hand a slight squeeze and turned to face her. She turned towards him and smiled, the smile that melted his cold personality away and revealed the happy person she remembered from her childhood.
Syaoron helped Sakura into the limo and got in after her. 30 minutes later, they arrived in front of the great mansion that was being used to hold the event. As soon as Sakura and Syaoron stepped out of their limo, hundreds upon hundreds of lights started flashing and people were flocking up to them. People, as in reporters of course. Sakura answered a few of them to be polite, as did Syaoron but soon they decided it was time to go in so they left the reporters and went directly inside. Little did they know, another person they both knew was going to attend the charity event, but not for the auction.
--------------
Dinner was over and the auction was about to begin. Waiters had come around to take away their plates and give out the bid numbers. Tomoyo and Eriol were also there so it wasn't as much of a bore as Syaoron and Sakura expected it to be. They had fun talking about wedding prep and Syaoron had fun teasing Eriol about when he was gonna get tied down by his fiancée. Sakura just glared at him demanding what he meant by that question and…well you know the drill.
They started to settle down when an announcer started to speak saying the auction would begin shortly and blah blah blah…
5 minutes later, a man dressed in a tux came on stage and took the mic.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, thank you for attending tonight's charity event." The announcer said. Syaoron turned to the announcer and saw that it was someone he recognized but couldn't really remember from where. Sakura was still busily whispering to Tomoyo about things only women would want to talk about.
The announcer continued, "All proceeds will be going to…well to tell you the truth, I don't know and I don't care."
It then hit Syaoron, and his expression darkened and his fists clenched tightly at his sides.
"I'm here for one and only one thing…my Sakura."
At the announcement of her name Sakura looked up towards the stage and she went into a shock when she saw who it was. It's him Sakura was beyond shock now. She was frightened. Syaoron took her hand and held it reassuringly.
Peter opened his jacket to reveal two guns and a bomb strapped to his chest, and the clock was running. It read 5 minutes and counting.
"Now if my lovely Sakura would come on stage please." And with that Peter took out his gun and pointed it directly to Syaoron. "Or else Syaoron dies."
Sakura gasped as she looked from Syaoron to the gun pointed at him. Syaoron just shook his head and held her hand firmly. He sure as hell wasn't going to give into this bastard, not now not ever.
"Come on Sakura, time's a wasting…"
AN:...Please read and review...and as they say..."That's all Folks"
