Chapter Eight: Dating
:----------------------------------:
Sakura fiddled with her thumbs as she made her way to the school. To say she was nervous was an understatement. She was scared…beyond scared of what everyone had thought of her performance the other day. Looking around she saw Kaori hurrying away carrying the school newspaper waving it happily in front of her face. "Oh my god Sakura! You have to read what they wrote about you!" Kaori screamed while jumping about catching unneeded attention.
Sakura quickly hushed her hyper friend down, "Okay…okay…just lemme see that thing!" Kaori giggled, "Oh …right sorry!" Sakura laughed and slowly opened up the sheet of paper surprised by the headland.
Real Drama On Stage.
At yesterday's wonderful production of the play "Midnight Love" by our very own Yamazaki Takashi we have found that the romance was not only on stage, but perhaps even off.
The wonderful acting abilities of Syaoran Li (Kevin), Sakura Kinomoto (Sateen), Kaori Ruo (Cheryl) and Takashi Yamazaki (Ryan) has completely captivated us all. But our biggest surprise was the change in ending by Syaoran Li himself and our beautiful Sakura Kinomoto in their fiery kiss right before the curtains were closed.
Was this just a surprise ending? Or was there more to the kiss than that? And are they secretly having an after school affair? Whatever it is we are proud of their wonderful production last night and congratulations to them all! Also on an extra note Miss. Kinomoto's voice has astounded as all and the student committee is wondering, would you like to participate in the Christmas Concert and sing for us? Please write back.
Sakura stood there frozen, "Romance? Between me and that prick!" Kaori giggled, "I mean come on Sakura! You even had me surprised…is there something going on between you two!" Sakura shook her head furiously, "Oh my god no! He's just a friend…actually he's not EVEN a friend." Kaori shrugged her shoulders, "Whatever Sakura…it doesn't even matter, what matters is that…YOU DID FANTASTIC! Everyone loved you!"
The two girls started jumping up and down in joy. Sakura giggled, "I guess I did do pretty well didn't I?" Kaori frowned, "Pretty well? You were the best!" Sakura hugged her friend again, "Thanks Kay…you got me into acting." Kaori stood up proud, "Oh you know it!" Sakura giggled and looked down at her watch, "Shit I think we're late!" Kaori grabbed Sakura's hand and started running down the hall, "Why are you just standing here? I can't be late for English again!"
:----------------------------------:
After school Sakura decided to quickly get home, she was tired and really needed a break. When she turned the corner onto her street she frowned as she drove to her driveway. "I swear you're stalking me," Sakura commented frowning as she walked up the front porch. "What can I say, I just really wanted to see you," Syaoran said sexily as he leaned onto the wall.
"Yeah…well you've seen me now go," Sakura said harshly as she placed her key in the door hole when Syaoran took it out again, "No see, I wanted to ask you something too." Sakura eyed him hands on her hips, "Come on Li let's not play games." "Call me Syaoran, Sakura," he said teasing her while holding her key up high out of her reach.
Sakura pouted, "Li…fine Syaoran! Give me back my keys I want to go home!" Syaoran ran around, "Oh come on Sakura come get me!" Sakura frowned but soon a smile appeared on her lips as she chased him about. Running so fast she didn't even realize as she trips over her own feet.
Closing her eyes tightly she expected to hit the ground, but was instead carried by strong arms. "You're such a klutz you know that," Syaoran said huskily as he held onto her. Quickly jumping out of his arms she snatches the key from his hand, "Thank you…now I'm going home." Syaoran smirked as he watched her run towards her house. "Matte!" he called her. Sakura turned around, "What do you want now Syaoran." Syaoran smirked, "That," and with that he turned his heal and left.
Sakura looked at him puzzled, what did he mean? And than she realized what she said she quickly closed her mouth. "Stupid Li Syaoran…" she said as she smiled softly and went inside.
:----------------------------------:
Syaoran smirked as she sat down by the pond near his house, "I think I'm slowly getting to her," he said as he threw a rock across the pond causing it to hop. Eriol frowned as the wind slowly blew his blue hair, "Are you sure about this Syaoran…" Syaoran stood up hushing the blue hair guy up, "Yeah I am Eriol…just calm down, I know what I'm doing." Eriol shrugged his shoulders, "Whatever you say Syaoran…"
Syaoran smirked and jumped around, "So what did you think of my acting skills?" Eriol chuckled, "They were fantastic! You could've had me fooled as that guy…Kelvin." "Kevin!" Syaoran corrected as he sat back down. "Yeah him, I mean you had Tomoyo completely fooled too. She thought she saw some sort of connection between you and that Kinomoto girl." Syaoran laughed, "Hahaha me and Kinomoto? Only in her dreams…well in this case only in our bets."
Eriol forced a smile but said nothing as his friend happily ran around. He had heard about the little key incident earlier. Maybe there wasn't anything going on, but his senses told him otherwise.
:----------------------------------:
Time pasted by quickly and soon the cold winter came and Sakura was soon to be singing in the Christmas concert. "Ugh!" she groaned frustrated as she roughly erased the notes on the paper. "Need some help?" a strong masculine voice behind her interrupted her. Sakura turned around, "What do you want Syaoran…what do you know about music?" "Enough to know that if you do this, and this," he said erasing and adding more notes, "You're song will be perfect." Sakura eyed him but played the tune.
"Hey…this is…" Sakura started trying to find the right words. "Good right?" Syaoran said cockily. Sakura giggled but nodded her head, "Thanks, that helped a lot now please leave I want this to be a surprise for everyone."
But instead of leaving Syaoran sat down beside her, "I really want to talk with you." Sakura eyed him suspiciously, "I knew your help always had a catch to it." Syaoran shrugged his shoulders, "Please Sakura?" Sakura sighed but turned to face him, "Go for it."
Syaoran grinned cheekily, "I knew you'd see it my way." Sakura rolled her eyes, "Always so full of it aren't you Syaoran? And I thought you had something to ask me." Syaoran smiled, "Yeah, I wanted to ask you out for dinner? Just me and you." Sakura turned back to her music, "I don't date." Syaoran pouted, "Come on Sakura…break one little rule…please?" Sakura shook her head, "Out of the question, leave now Syaoran! You're going to ruin the surprise."
And with that Sakura shoved the poor guy out. Once he was out of the music room he couldn't help but grin, he knew he was getting there, just a little longer and she would be his.
:----------------------------------:
Sakura sat back down as she considered his offer. "It would be nice to go out after…" she started to shudder remembering the last dinner she went too. Leaning her head back down on the piano she shut her eyes tightly as a stray tear fell down her check, "Why is he doing this to me?" she asked to no one in particular.
She listened as the wind blew around the empty room causing her to smile. "I love you too Ryu…I just need to decide now." Shutting her eyes again she decided to start her music again.
:----------------------------------:
It was soon time for lunch break and she noticed all the dirty stares she received walking down the student filled corridors. Although it had been awhile since the fall play people still disliked her for that little on screen romance Syaoran and her had. It was a good thing people thought it was all part of the script or it wouldn't be just dirty looks she'd be receiving.
But what she noticed the most had to be her. Her purple eyes would be boring holes at the back of her head. Sakura tried hard to ignore it but one of these days…Syaoran also seemed a lot different after the play. He was nicer, and actually paid attention to her, which in a way was very suspicious.
His offer still rang in her mind, should she have dinner with him? Was she really ready to move on? The questions kept swirling through her mind unsurely. As much as she wanted to go, she wasn't sure. Could she really try again? Try again for a new love?
:----------------------------------:
"Are you feeling better?" Yuri asked gently her brownish orange hair swaying behind her. Ryu looked up, a small smile on his face, "Sorry that I can't remember who you are." This caused Yuri to laugh, "You never knew me silly. Don't worry, Mistress will get your memory back soon."
Ryu stared at her, his red eyes staring into her blue ones, "What if I don't want my memory back?" Yuri jumped up, "Now why would you even consider such a thing Mr. Masha?" Ryu shrugged his shoulders, "My past…seems to complicated…and who's this girl I'm supposedly in love with…Sakura Kinomoto. How do I even know if she loves me?"
Yuri started fiddling with her hands, "Mr. Masha…you must stick with the plans or Mistress will be angered." Ryu stood up fiercely, "I don't get it why me? God…Yuri," he said grabbing onto her hand gently. Yuri instantly flinched away as if she was burned. Her eyes filled with tears as she continued to stare into his crimson red eyes, "I'm sorry…" she said softly as she quickly scurried out of the room.
Ryu sat down on the black sheets that they had provided for him. Running his hand through his jet black hair he couldn't help but wonder what if? Shaking his head he took out the picture of Sakura. Trailing his finger on her outline he felt his heart tighten…but it wasn't the same as with Yuri. Laying back down thoughts rushed through his mind, he had to find a way to get her if it was the last thing he did.
:----------------------------------:
Sakura slowly got out of her pink car and frowned as she noticed him by her porch. "You just never give up do you?" she commented as she tried to get him to step out of the way only to be blocked off by his arm. "Please Sakura? Just this one little chance?" Syaoran pleaded as he smiled ever so sweetly. Sakura raised a brow but giggled at his cute little face, "Pick me up at 6." "Plea…" Syaoran stopped midway finally registering what Sakura had answered. Jumping up and down he finally got out of her way as he started running home, "I swear you won't regret it!" Sakura giggled and watched as he walked away. Quickly entering the house she had to get ready for tonight.
