Reflecting Thoughts

"Hello there." Syaoran greeted the young woman behind the desk. She took one look at him and next thing you knew, she let her hair down and smiled at him with her very best. She didn't take any notice of the pretty little Sakura behind him.

"We're looking for Mr. Yamato. Do you know where we can find him? We have an appointment…uh…now."

"Hehe! Well, let's see…you are?"

"Kobasagi Kaito. And this here…" Sakura stepped up beside him with a stern expression, her disgust in how this secretary could instantaneously fall for the sly Syaoran. "is…uh…my lovely girlfriend and secretary, Sakuraba Hitomi." The secretary stopped smiling and paged Daisuke Yamato. While she did this Sakura couldn't help but friendly nudge Syaoran, and as they turned to look at each other, Sakura smiled at him. A smile that told him she was grateful that he didn't forget they're job…or more so, her.

"Ah! Mr. Kobasagi, you're here!" Yamato greeted once more. His hair was slicked back and this time he wore an incredibly, sparkling white suit. Both men reached out to shake each other's hand. Sakura and Syaoran followed Tempta Co.'s Daisuke Yamato into a large, comfortable conference room. There was only one man in there at the time, sitting, waiting very patiently. When the three of them entered the room he looked up and introduced himself as Natsuno Aruba. He was very handsome and seemed to be another young member at Tempta Co., along with Ms. Sempa. He had black hair and wore, not a suit, but just a simple sky blue dress shirt and pants. He looked very comfortable. As he shook Sakura's hand, he gazed deep into her eyes very seriously, which reminded her of Syaoran and which sort of made her smile even brighter at the thought.

"Ms. Toro" Yamato buzzed his secretary from the phone on the large table. "Can you please alert the other members to come without delay to conference room 1. And while you're at it please bring us tea and coffee."

Syaoran and Aruba were having a man to man talk. Every now and then Mr. Natsuno would look over to Sakura. Both agents noticed this, mentally, of course.

"You know," Sakura said looked around and fanning herself. "It's really HOT in here."

"Heh, its going to be a lot hotter when the others come." One of the men said. She smiled and nodded in agreement.

She then, took off her blouse and showed off her navy blue tank top with spaghetti straps. Both Syaoran and Aruba watched her intently as she made every move graceful and elegant. She lowered a shoulder, purposely, in the process of taking off her blouse, which caused her strap to slip down her shoulder. Sakura fixed it back up with a small 'oops'. She lifted her arms and hands seductively, pulling her soft hair into a loose bun. Sakura intended to hook Mr. Natsuno in, but Syaoran was a bonus.

'Damn. I take that back when I said sexy didn't suit her.' Syaoran thought, his tongue tossing around in his mouth and his throat getting dry. 'Wait! I never meant it anyway.. but ooooohhhh she's good.' Suddenly, Ms Sempa Aki, Mr. Kagashi Kenji and Mr. Sakusha Hakute walked in. Syaoran and Daisuke turned to welcome them in, but Mr. Natsuno's eyes were still transfixed on our little Sakura. Sakura noticed this and sent him a daring smile adding a small wink.

Syaoran saw this and said nothing. 'She's playing him. She doesn't like him. She's playing him just like I was playing Sempo…'

"Okay, now that everyone is here…let's start." Yamato announced. "Well first, let's welcome Mr. Kobagashi and his secretary, Ms Sakuraba. They are our first new business partners outside of Osaka."

"Yes, yes, we all know from the amount of times you said it Daisuke." Ms Sempo laughed. The other members, and the agents, laughed along as well. They then began to discuss about the Kobasagi's Company (remember there's no such thing.) and Tempta Corporations.

Sakura was getting bored with the conversation every once in awhile. 'It's like being back at school' She yawned. 'So boring!' Here eyes drifted around the room and eventually looked out the window passed Daisuke Yamato, who was at the head of the table.

'Wow! Such clean windows!' She thought. 'I can see everything in here!' She spotted herself in the mirror and twisted and turned her head in different positions to see her own features.

'Hehe! Me!' She smiled to herself. She looked a little up the reflection to see Syaoran leaning casually back on his chair. His arm hung off the chair, like he was back in school. Sakura took this opportunity to look at him, without being caught. 'Oooohh…'

She noticed how his dark brown hair fell into his amber eyes. She looked at his reflection more, feeling more attracted to him then ever as she bit down on her lip. Suddenly, Syaoran turned away from the conversation to see what Sakura was looking at. He followed her gaze and saw the both of them looking back at themselves.

Syaoran smirked. He leaned over to Sakura lifting an eyebrow.

"Like what you see? I do." Syaoran whispered.

Sakura gulped down as his the sound of his voice and his breath swept the side of her ear and naked shoulder sending chills.

Sakura didn't answer, and they both went back into the discussion.

"Now let's get those contracts signed, go over some more quickies and we're done for the day." Daisuke ruffled through his own pile of papers and folders he had. He stopped and paged his secretary.

"Ms. Toro." He spoke into the phone leaning back on his chair. "I'm sorry, but I believe I forgot the folder of contracts in my office. Could you bring them to us?-" He saw Sakura drink up the rest of her tea. "-oh and also bring some more tea for Ms. Sakuraba please. Thank you."

A couple of minutes after, the woman Sakura and Syaoran had met earlier came into their conference room holding a file in one hand and a teapot in the other. She walked to her boss and set the file down then turned to Sakura.

"More tea?" She managed to say through pursed lips. Sakura nodded and smiled uncomfortably.

Meanwhile, Mr. Yamato opened up the folder.

"This is the wrong file, Ms. Toro." Daisuke Yamato said angrily, surprising the woman as she accidentally spilled the tea on Sakura's tank top, she was holding the teapot carelessly.

"oops!" The words came out of Ms. Toro's mouth meaningless and her eyes said 'Ha! You deserve that!'. But Sakura unthinkingly said, "It's okay"

She was distracted by the file's reflection in Mr. Yamato's hand. She saw in the window the backward letters of 'HFTC-01' on the inside. That's right. The hidden file #2.! Syaoran noticed Sakura's gaze and followed right to the same reflective image. Sakura hit back to life as the hot tea began to seep through her skirt. Sakura thought quickly. She grabbed Syaoran's hand, shocking him, as Ms. Toro set down the teapot and went to retrieve the mistaken file. Sakura quickly tapped her, in Morse code, on Syaoran's palm: I'll get it. Stall. I'm knocking her out. She spelled out as fast as possible. Syaoran nodded taking her hand into a hold.

"You should go to the washroom and get that cleaned off." Syaoran suggested.

"Yes, I'm very sorry." Daisuke agreed. "Ms. Toro, please bring Ms. Sakuraba to the ladies' room at once." Then he lowered his voice to her. "You screw this up and you're fired."

Syaoran's hand tightened warmly around Sakura's as she stood up to follow Ms. Toro. Her hand slipped out of Syaoran's, and both secretly yearned for each other's touch as they got farther and farther away.

Sakura followed the grumpy Ms. Toro out into the hallway, thinking up plans quickly. She cooked something up as they reached the first stop, which luckily was Yamato's office. Sakura knew Ms. Toro had gone there first on purpose to delay getting to the washroom.

"Hold on." Ms. Toro grumbled as she opened the door to the unlocked office and walked in. Sakura waited impatiently. This woman's attitude toward her was really starting to piss her off.

"Could you hurry up please?" Sakura said loudly tapping her food. She poked her head to see where the woman placed the file. Ms. Toro seemed to walk slower then she walked before. A huge fake smile was planted on her face. You could tell she was trying to resist doing anything frantic that will lose her job. And Sakura was restraining from doing the most simplest killer move on her right then and there.

'The job has to be done right.' Sakura told herself as her and Ms. Toro walked through the hallway a bit further.

They came upon a large Mahogany door with the word 'Ladies' written in gold on it. Mr. Toro walked in first, trying to leave Sakura behind. Sakura's foot swung up in the air and hit Ms. Toro's head causing it to collide with the wall beside her before she turned the corner.

Sakura picked her up and sat her, fully dressed I might add, on the toilet. She locked the stall door and climbed over the cubicle wall.

'She'll wake up in a few hours.' Sakura thought as she quickly cleaned off the stain on her top. 'Stupid idiot. She deserved that, anyway. Lucky I was behind her. She'll wake up not understanding what happened to her. I didn't think she was that light headed to hit the wall so quickly.'

If you're wondering why Sakura didn't kill her off, well, it would have been irresponsible as an agent because they refrain as much as possible to kill people. Because, one, it causes suspicion, two, they could be killing the wrong person, and three, if they killed as often as they did and wanted to, they would be more of assassins not secret agents. Plus, if they killed everyone in sight, there would be no secret to them, now would there?

Sakura thought she cleaned her shirt good enough and walked out the door with the folder of contracts, Ms. Toro had in her hand before. She looked around the halls and noticed everything was quiet.

'Wow.' Sakura thought. 'People are really discreet and personal here.'

She walked along to Yamato's office and easily opened the door. She quickly scanned the room. Sakura sighed as she found what she needed to find, but didn't want to find. She walked into the room straight to it. Sakura pulled a wire on the camera and it shut off immediately.

'Stupid careless people.' Sakura mumbled irritated. She went to his desk and found the file in the same place Ms. Toro set down. She tucked the file in the waistband of her skirt just like she did with Syaoran. She walked out the door casually and then it hit her. Literally. Well sort of. It was a person, and she bumped hard into them.

"Oof!" She said aloud as they collided. 'Shit! I'm caught.'
