The cheer-up-Sakura-hime get-together(-and-eat-cake)

[mypace-musume.livejournal.com]

When; Sunday, Sept. 20, 2009 (That's right, this is backdated to last Sunday. I am so sorry.)
Rating; G/PG territory
Characters; Sakura-hime and friends (Konata as hostess, Doumeki as co-conspirator / friends of Sakura-hime's can generally consider themselves invited)
Summary; An impromptu get-together to cheer Sakura up after Syaoran's departure
Log;

It wasn't really supposed to be a surprise party, as Konata had said to Doumeki. It was an "it sucks that your boyfriend is gone now but we're here for you kinda thing." But there would be people, and there would supposedly be cake, and Konata had gotten drinks (mostly soda) and plates and snacks and really it ended up looking quite a bit like a party after all. And Sakura-hime didn't know about it until Konata called her out into the living room, so maybe it was something of a surprise as well.

Well Syaoran had to think fast because no sooner had Sakura arrived when she spotted him in the corner. She approached him after talking to Konata a bit, smiling sweetly.

"Li-kun, you're all by yourself over here."

"Ah, um," he answered, glancing up, probably looking a bit like he thought he was in trouble. And he still didn't know what to say, and he still wasn't the Syaoran she knew (and, er, cared for very deeply, if that curse day was anything to judge by).

"I was just watching everyone," he said finally, face flushed. "...You have good friends, Princess."

Sakura giggled a bit and turned to stand next to him, leaning back against the wall with her hands clasp behind her back. He really looked so much like a mini-Syaoran-kun. They acted very much the same and yet they were still so different. It made her smile.

"Ah... Yes," She replied thoughtfully and turned her gaze to the gathered group with a gentle smile. "I'm very lucky."

But she worried now. Someday would they disappear too?

She had giggled; his flush deepened. He stole another glance up at her, and then stared fiercely into his cup.

"We're all trying," he said finally. "I know it's not the same, but Izumi and Doumeki and everyone. And... you'll see him again when you go home."

It's not much comfort, he thought. At least, if his-- if the Sakura he knew went home, he'd still be upset to think of her there where he couldn't help her.

Sakura turned to him, tilting her head slightly as she looked at him. Then she smiled warmly and reached down, ruffling the hair on his head lightly.

"You and everyone else are more than enough. You're the greatest friends anyone could ever want. Thank you, Li-kun. I really appreciate it."
