CHAPTER 28 - TRIP?

'How about a trip? Just the two of us' - Syaoran placed his face really close to Sakura's and nibbled on her right ear softly.
'Umm... not sure if I can be away from Tanaka's side without arising suspicions... I would love to though'
'Come on! We can come up with something, get Aoi to come or something. I need to go to Hong Kong next week'
'What for?'
'Well, it is Chinese New Year so I will be taking some time off work. Plus, my mother says she needs to speak to me about something important. Apparently it couldn't be discussed over the phone'
'Your mother... I would have liked to meet her...'
'You can. Why not?'
'As your girlfriend I mean'
'Oh... right. Well, we will sort that out soon enough and I will be able to introduce you to my family' - he smiled
'Really? Will we ever fix this?'
'Of course, I cannot live without you anymore. I can feel you all around me, I miss your kisses and your warmth every day. My only wish is to have you by my side, forever'

Sakura looked at him with tears on her eyes, she hugged him tightly and gave him a kiss.

'I will go. Let's go to Hong Kong together'

AT THE HOSPITAL

'Why is Sakura not picking up my calls?! Even now, it is morning already!' - Tanaka smashed his mobile on the ground - 'Fuck! I need a new phone now...'

Knock knock

'Come on in'
'Excuse me Tanaka-san'
'Oh Aoi-san, good morning. Is Sakura here yet?'
'I don't know actually. Why?'
'But... didn't you spend the night together at your apartment?'
'Ah! Yes, yes but what I meant is that I came here alone, because I think she has the day off'
'Day off, huh?'
'I actually wanted to tell you that you are needed at the emergency ward. If you could please go straight away'
'Thank you, I will go now'

("Crap! I nearly messed that up! Saku-chan what are you up to?!")

AT SYAORAN'S OFFICE

'Morning Kei, how's it going? Where is your master?'
'What are you talking about Takeshi?'
'I mean Syaoran haha. Since you always seem to be together, like master and servant haha'
'What is with you recently? You have become extremely annoying'
'Wow! Does that mean we are not friends anymore? We had some good times, right?'
'He is not in today. I got a message this morning, he is sick'
'Sick... that's pretty rare. Well, might let Naomi know then, she would love to nurse him back to health, if you know what I mean haha'
'Hey! This information is not for you to use for your little games. Stop that!'
'Haha see if you can stop me. See ya' - Takeshi smirked and walked away
'What the fuck?!'

BACK AT THE HOTEL

'Syaoran... that... is embarrassing'
'Don't you like it?'
'... I... I do...a lot... but...'
'That's all I need to know...'

They were on the floor, making love passionately. Syaoran wanted to engrave all these memories in his brain. She looked so beautiful, so soft and so vulnerable. To touch her skin was a pleasure he craved for everyday, his fingertips burned every single time, and he just wanted more. It was never enough for him.

("Is this what love is meant to feel like?")

'Ah ahhh...' - she bit her lower lip to stop herself from screaming
'I want to hear you... let me hear you'

She held onto his shoulders and dag her nails onto his skin. Once more, she had lost control of her body and he had seen all her most embarrassing facial expressions. He was so hot, she couldn't help it.

("I came really hard just then! Will he tease me about it?")

Sakura pressed her face against his chest, she realised Syaoran had been in silence for a few minutes now. All of the sudden, she felt Syaoran's lips on her forehead.

'I love everything about you' - he whispered

("This is the person meant for me. I am sure of it now, more than ever")

'Syaoran, can I tell Aoi about us?'
'Why do you ask?'
'Well, it would be so much easier to arrange our meetings if she knew. Does Kei know?'
'He doesn't, but I am sure he suspects something is going on. When I sent him a message saying I was sick, he said: Enjoy!'
'Ehhhh?! haha did he really?'
'Yeap. I think it should be fine. You can tell Aoi and I will tell Kei, ok? Then, can I start preparing things for our trip to Hong Kong?'
'Sure! Lets's do it! I am so excited!' - her face was radiant with happiness
'God! I just want to kiss you more and more when you make that face'

They stared at each other in silence, Sakura placed her hand behind his neck and caressed his hair delicately. He closed his eyes and kissed her.

AT A CAFE IN THE CITY CENTRE

'I see... thanks for the info. I will go see him today then'

("I think I should go very provocative and sexy... he is sick though... meh! That never stopped him before...")

Naomi paid her bill and rushed to her car.
