My Playboy Boss
A/N: I'm super duper sorry for the late update. HUHUHU! It's just that I lost all the interest I have to continue with this story. But a very important person let me realized the important of updating with the readers. She was an eye-opener really. I owe her this. you know who you are PEARL ;)
I hope you won't be angry with me updating late. It's just that I lack the time and the motivation to pursue. But anyways, I still updated. That's great news, right? HAHA! Anyways, enjoy! And oh by the way, I won't delete the authors note or replace it 'coz I figured out that you can't review on this chapter if this is a replacement. haha. i dunno reli. :))
Summary: For her, it was hate at first sight. For him, it was nothing. Sakura Kinomoto's new boss, a.k.a. Syaoran Li, is nothing but a playboy and an arrogant jerk yet, he is breath-taking. He plays with every girl but was stunned by his 'new secretary'. Now he wants her. But, he doesn't know why Sakura is mad at him. Until one day…

Chapter 7
.,.,.,Syaoran's POV.,.,.,
I wonder what's wrong with that girl. She seems to be lost with her thoughts. But the way she was eyeing me, it feels like she has something being planned. Hmmm. I wonder what it is.
Anyways, I didn't mind her though she's making me bothered. "Good evening everyone and Happy Birthday Rika! Here's my gift for you. Hope you like it." I said while giving her my gift. I hope she would like it. I knew her as a bookworm so I guess she would like to have the Twilight Series. I have seen that movie before and I somehow liked it. But I guess it's not only me who liked it. I heard her with the girls talking about the books.
"Hey! Have you seen Twlight? It was superb nice I tell you. You shouldn't miss seeing this movie." Mei Lin said.
"Yeah. I've watched that movie. You know me already, when it comes to horror or something, I'm in. Especially in this movie, it's sort of a love story. I really love it!" Naoko said.
"I've seen it with Eriol. It's nice." Tomoyo said, not really as excited as Naoko.
"I've seen it also. And I'm dying to have all the four books. Argh! I so love Stephenie Meyer and her books. But sad to say, I didn't find any in bookstores. It's always out of stocks. Too bad." Rika sad sadly.
"Oh my, Syaoran. This is so heavy! What's inside?" Rika said excitedly.
"It's for you to find out, my friend." I replied, grinning. Knowing her, she wouldn't stop bugging me till she gets what she wants. Typical Rika.
"Hey. Li-san, who is that girl?" Sakura asked.
Eh? Did I hear her right? She was curious who's with me? Oh my! That's a change. Hmmm. I wonder what's with this girl. She never fails to amuse me. She is very interesting woman. I would want to know her more that's if she would let me. But I doubt if she would. She won't even stop the surname thingy. I mean, we're out of the office already so she can cut off the surname. I wouldn't mind really. I think I already told her that. Oh well. She is really hard-headed. Oh, wait. I don't think so. She easily got friends with the girls. But I wonder why she's very fierce with me. Oh cut that, not really fierce. Just snobbish I think.
But hey! I guess she likes me! That's it! Girls tend to be snobbish sometimes with the boys they like. Just like Tomoyo. She acted like she hates Eriol but it was very obvious that she likes her. And very clever Eriol, he was teasing her bad! Oh well, they really are a match. They think the same and plus, they are the most annoying couple I've ever known in my entire life!
"Is there something wrong with my face?" she interrupted my thoughts.
"Oh. Sorry about that. By the way, everyone, I want you to meet Bridget, a friend of mine. Bridget, this is Naoko with Yamazaki, Chiharu with Takashi, Rika with Terada, Tomoyo with Eriol and last but not the least, Sakura.
"Konnichiwa! It's a pleasure to meet you all." Bridget said.
"Same with us Bridget. Anyways, let's eat already. I'm starving." Takashi complained. Chiharu immediately beat his head. And the gang laughed.
"Ouch. That hurts sweetie." he said.
"Shut up Tak. You wanna get hit again?" Chiharu replied.
They're always like this, fighting with each other. But one thing I really appreciate with them is that they never got bored with their fighting. They can easily start an argument but never ends it up with break up. But still, I find it amusing to see them fighting always.
"Aww. I was just joking sweetie. Don't get all fuss up." he defended.
"Yeah right. You're acting like you're the celebrant in here." Chiharu pointed out.
"Chiharu – one point. Takashi – zero." Meiling scored and we all laughed. Poor Takashi.
"Haha. Enough of that. But I think Takashi's right guys. I'm sort of hungry already and I bet all of you are the same." Rika said.
We all proceed to the table and ate. It's really fun during times like this. Just talking and not minding our problems in life. It's nice to think that among all the problems and trials that lie ahead, you still have your friends to count on.
.,.,.,Sakura's POV.,.,.,
I wonder why she brought that girl. I mean, didn't his conscience bother to budge him for cheating with his date? For Christ's sake! That man is the worst playboy I've ever met. I so hate him. Yet, I want to revenge. I want him to be guilty of Miki's death. He should be blaming himself for it. He's the only one at fault. Miki just loved him too much that's why she had offered her dignity to him. Poor Miki. He got hooked with the wrong guy. And that jerk. He took Miki's innocence by using Miki's love for him. Maybe he knows that Miki is afraid losing him so she would do anything that he wants. Argh! I loathe him! I will teach him a lesson. I will!
"Hey Saku. Anything wrong?" Tomoyo inquired. She must have seen me gawking at that bastard.
"Oh. Nothing Moyo. It's just that I remembered someone." I reasoned out.
"You remember someone while staring at Syaoran? Or where you thinking about Syaoran?" she teased.
"Come on Tomoyo. You know I don't like guys. The word L-O-V-E is not in my voc." I said.
"Yeah right. Why don't you open widely you eyes Sakura? The world is sooooo beautiful! With lots of lots of handsome men!" Tomoyo said, star-eyed.
"Snap out of it Moyo. Do you want me to mention this to Eriol? I bet he wouldn't like that." I threatened.
"Argh! You win. Just this time. Anyways, I'm still starving. I'll go eat something to eat first." She said and went to the table again.
I went to the terrace to gasp in some fresh air. The air inside is too much for me to handle. At least, a fresh air to breathe in will help me organize my thoughts.
Yeah right, need to organize your thoughts.
Argh! It's the stupid voices again!
Nah ah. You haven't heard me yet a while ago so it should be 'voice' only. Haha.
Yeah right. What is it now?
Hey. We're just here to help you ORGANIZE your thoughts. Haha!
Stop making her doubt, bad. Your name really suits you.
And what are you trying to imply? That you're just the good in here?
Yup! That's my name right? I'm the good conscience.
Alright, STOP! Can't you quit fighting? You're not helping me!
"Is there something bothering you?" a voice asked.
Ooops. Gotta go Saku!
Till next time!
"Argh. Stupid voices." I murmured.
"What did you say?" she asked again.
"Oh. Nothing Bridget-chan." I replied.
"You can just call me Bridget. Sakura, right?" she said and I nodded.
"So what brought you here Bridget?" I asked her this time.
She sighed. "That. I felt a little bit out of place inside." she said sadly.
"But why?" I asked again. I don't see anything wrong with the gang. I easily got along with them. And besides, she's Li-san's date so probably, she would be the center of topic, that's if Syaoran didn't neglected her. That boy is really something. He is certainly a jerk.
"Don't get me wrong. They tried to communicate with me but I feel like I don't belong. You know, like somehow, I shouldn't be here." she stated shyly.
"Eh? You shouldn't. You belong here - -"
"Because I'm Li-san's date?" she interrupted.
"I guess? Well Bridget, you're not alone. You know, it's my first day with them also but I easily got along with the group, the girls especially. You wouldn't find them hard to get along with. Swear." I reassured her.
"Really? I thought you were childhood friends or something." she marveled.
I laughed at her statement. What makes her think that way?
"Of course not. I only knew Tomoyo since she's my best friend/cousin." I answered.
"Oh." was all she said.
"Anyways, how did you and Li-san met?" I asked, intrigued.
.,.,.,Bridget's POV.,.,.,
"Anyways, how did you and Li-san met?" Sakura asked.
I wonder what her connection with him is. She said she wasn't related to any of them except for Tomoyo. Eh? Who is she again? Oh, I remember. She was the girl beside the man wearing eye glasses. Hmm. Pretty girl.
"Oh that. He happened to be the friend of my best guy friend. I don't know what really happened to them but I think they're giving each other a cold shoulder. Or probably, hate is the best word to describe Syaoran's feeling for him." I said sadly.
"I'm sorry to hear that." she apologized.
"Aw. Don't mind them. They will probably be friends. Someday. Just not now I guess." I said.
"So Li-san has some sort of 'enemy'?" she wondered.
"You can say that." I agreed.
"I wonder why." she asked.
"Hmm. I don't quiet get their argument but I think it was about a girl who happened to be Syaoran's girlfriend." I narrated.
"Ohhh. And I guess that guy friend of yours stole her from him?" she guessed.
"That's what it seems to me. But neither of them wants to talk about it." I said.
"Ohhh. That's an interesting puzzle to solve." she said and laughed.
"Silly. So how about you? What's your connection with him?" I asked this time.
"Me? I'm just his secretary. That's all. End of story." she said.
"Know what? The secretary and the boss sometimes end up loving each other." I teased and she blushed.
"Ha ha! Nice joke. I don't think my case would be like that. It's very impossible." she denied.
"No, it isn't. You're not bad yourself. You are soo pretty!" I said.
"Eh? Thanks. I'll take that as a compliment. But as for me and Li-san, I doubt it would happen." she blushed.
"Who knows?" I answered.
We sat quietly outside staring at the shimmering stars. It was a very peaceful night. This place is so cool. I wish I'd live in a place like this, where you can sit down in your terrace just staring at the stars.
"Hey, you two. Come on in. We'll be having a videoke here." Syaoran said as he poked his head at the door.
"Okay. We'll be there in a jiffy." I said and he was gone.
"Let's go." Sakura said while dragging me inside.
"I don't wanna walk this earth if I gonna do it solo. Yeah!" Eriol sang.
"Woooh! Nice one Eriol! You made it rain outside." Tomoyo joked. Well, it really was raining outside. "Oi, good thing you're both here! What were you doing outside anyways?" she continued, referring to us.
"Eh? Nothing Moyo." Sakura answered.
"Uh. Ano. Sorry to cut the fun short but my cousin texted me. She's living a few blocks from here and she said she needs to discuss some important matters with me as soon as possible. It was very nice to meet you guys but I should get going. Happy Birthday once again Rika-chan." I said. Truth is, I don't wanna stay here anymore. There is so much love in the atmosphere. I really hate to admit but after my last commitment with my ex, I'm no longer a fan of PDA's (Public Display of Affection). But don't get me wrong. Even if I stayed here for just a couple of minutes, I already like this people. Though I was a complete stranger to begin with, they welcome me warm heartedly.
"What? But it is still raining outside. Why don't you just wait till the rain stops?"Rika suggested.
"As much as I want to stay longer, I just can't. It will only take a few minutes to walk from here to my cousin's house so it doesn't really matter. Besides, I have an umbrella with me so no worries." I reasoned. I just wanna go home.
"Wait. Lem'me walk you to your destination." Li-san offered.
"Really, you don't have to. And I bet, the birthday celebrant wouldn't like it if one of her friend is missing." I said.
"Oi Xiao Lang, it's your turn to sing for us!" a man said. I totally forgot his name. What matters to me now is the need to get out of this place. "See? You MUST stay here. Anyways, I'll call you when I'll reach to my friend's house. How's that?"
"Okay, fine. Take care. But at least lem'me walk you to the door." he said while walking with me.
"Okay. So here we are! Thanks again Li-san for bringing me here. I enjoyed my stay." I gratefully said.
"Sure thing. No worries. So when's our next date?" he asked as he winked at me.
"You're unbelievable!" I said as I laughed. "I gotta go. Get back there and sing now. Hahaha!"
.,.,.,Syaoran's POV.,.,.,
"So call me when you get there, eh?" I reminded.
She nodded. "Yeah. I will. Bye!"
"Man, you're next!" Takashi exclaimed.
"Okay. Okay. I'm coming." I answered as I laughed. They really can't live without me. Haha.
"Since it's my birthday, I'll decide what song you'd sing Syaoran." Rika said.
'Whew! I can see evil in her eyes! Good gracious, I've been a good boy to you Lord. Spare me from the wrath of this woman!' I silently prayed.
"Nah. Don't be a scaredy cat now Xiao Lang. I'm sure you would love this. Neh, Sakura-chan?" she continued.
"Eh? What does it have to do with me?" she asked, very clueless woman.
"Oh my! I think I am having a hint now Rika. Don't you dare my dear. You know I'm not so good with DUETS." I said.
"Nah ah. That's why our dear Sakura will sing with you to make the DUET better." Tomoyo joined.
"Man, you're doomed!" Eriol teased as they all laughed. Well, an excemption of me and that Kinomoto-girl.
"Great. Shall we?" take note the sarcasm with my words.
"Wait guys, I said I will choose right? And I want my favorite duet Syaoran!" Rika reminded.
"Not that!" I opposed.
Now Playing. (I've Had) The Time Of My Life
The song started as they cheered on us. I glanced at the lady beside me. She seems to be very out of this world.
Now I've had the time of my life
No I never felt like this before
Yes I swear it's the truth
and I owe it all to you
I sang the words with emotion, as if I really felt the song. I looked at Kinomoto. She looked surprised? Maybe because of my voice? Well, I know I have a very nice voice. And when I said nice, it really is NICE.
'Cause I've had the time of my life
and I owe it all to you
Wow. She has the voice! I never thought she could sing this well. She glanced at me, motioning me to continue.
I've been waiting for so long
Now I've finally found someone
To stand by me
"Woohoo! LOVE IS IN THE AIR!" Takashi teased.
We saw the writing on the wall
As we felt this magical fantasy
I looked at her while she sang. There's something in her eyes that captivates me. Maybe because green is my favorite. Emerald eyes, such a beauty. She gazed at me too while we both sang.
Now with passion in our eyes
There's no way we could disguise it secretly
So we take each other's hand
'Cause we seem to understand the urgency
We began to sway as we sang. The ambiance became romantic. I don't even know why. The way she sang, the way she looked at me, it sends me chill. Not the chills that you feel when you're scared eh? It makes me nervous, excited a lot mixed feelings.
Just remember
You're the one thing
I can't get enough of
So I'll tell you something
This could be love because
(CHORUS)
I've had the time of my life
No I never felt this way before
Yes I swear it's the truth
And I owe it all to you
'Cause I've had the time of my life
And I've searched through every open door
'Til I found the truth
And I owe it all to you
This feeling is very new to me. Is this what they called LOVE? No, it can't be. This is just the result of too much stare into a person's eye. Maybe she's a witch or something? Oh, I remember! There was this Japanese Horror Movie that when you stare into her eyes, you'd be cursed. What's her name? Yes, Sadako!
With my body and soul
I want you more than you'll ever know
So we'll just let it go
Don't be afraid to lose control
But doesn't that Sadako girl has straight and black hair? Well, she has auburn and it's not long either. What am I thinking?
Yes I know whats on your mind
When you say:
"Stay with me tonight."
Just remember
You're the one thing
I can't get enough of
So I'll tell you something
This could be love because
Yet, I don't want to stop looking at her. There really is something that draws me to her. She mesmerized me. Now, now! I think like a total retard. What's gotten into me?
'Cause I had the time of my life
No I've never felt this way before
Yes I swear it's the truth
And I owe it all to you
'Cause I've had the time of my life
And I've searched through every open door
Till I found the truth
and I owe it all to you
"Dub dub, dub dub, we can hear your heart beats!" Tomoyo joined.
Now I've had the time of my life
No I never felt this way before
Yes I swear it's the truth
and I owe it all to you
'Cause I had the time of my life
And I've searched through every open door
Till I've found the truth
and I owe it all to you
'Cause I've had the time of my life
No I've never felt this way before
Yes I swear it's the truth
And I owe it all to you
The song stopped and we even didn't notice it. We just looked at each other to our hearts content. This night has been a good one.
