Chapter 2: Late Night

Disclaimer: I don't own CCs and this is story is AU

Sakura looks at her messages on her computer. She stares at it very long and hard. Little Wolf had not messaged her for a few days. Perhaps this pen pal thing is stupid. She heard a beep, and looked at her computer again. She still didn't see anything on her computer screen. She felt something that seemed like disappointment. She thought, "I shouldn't feel disappointed. We are just pen pals. We barely know each other."

She thought "where did that beep come from then?" She looked around and saw her phone nearby. She pulled it out and looked at it. She had just received a message from Tomoyo.

Tomoyo messaged her," there is a party going to be happening nearby your house." Sakura sighs, and looks at her computer. He hadn't contacted her for a few days. He must have forgotten me. She texts back to her friend, "I will meet you there."

Tomoyo messages, "Haha, you should come to my house. I have a dress for you to wear for tonight. See you soon."

Sakura squints at her phone, and sighs. She looks outside and then looks at her computer and turns it off. Perhaps, he will not be online tonight anyways. She packs up a few items to take with her and leaves her room.

Syaoran had a busy few days reading and learning the business from this mother. He often goes out to orphanages and donate charity to them. He also had to attend events and meet the current shareholders and potential business clients. When he came home, he would start on his homework. He forgot a few days to message Ying Fa. But they are just pen pals anyways. He didn't think she would be waiting for him every day. He was about to fall asleep, when there was a knock on his door.

Syaoran was quite surprised that someone knocked on his door. Syaoran gets up from his bed and opens his door. He was surprised, it was his mother. "Mother?"

"Xiaolang, I need you to get in contact with Eriol. I couldn't get a hold of your Uncle and Aunt. It's in regards to our family gathering. I hope you could reach out to him?" she asked.

Syaoran looked at his phone. He hadn't contacted Eriol for years. He didn't think Eriol would still have the same phone number. "I'm not sure if he will pick up or if he has changed his phone number?"

Yelan looked disappointed.

"Mother, I will try. Let me contact him. I will let you know in the morning if I get a hold of him. You should get some more sleep." Syaoran said.

Yelan looks at him and says, "Xiaolang, you have grown so quick. You are always thinking of me first."

Syaoran blushes and turns away and starts to dial the Eriol number. Yelan turns to leave his room and closes the door.

Syaoran called a few times before someone answered the phone. He could only hear loud music and lots of people talking and laughing. Syaoran looks at his phone and wrinkles his eyebrows. He knew getting ahold of Eriol was difficult. But he had to try.

"Hello, Eriol speaking." the person on the phone spoke.

Syaoran couldn't believe Eriol kept the same phone number all these years. Syaoran chuckles.

"Hello, Eriol this Li Syaoran. My mother has been trying to get a hold of your parents."

"Li Syaoran. I haven't heard that name in years. My parents are currently out in the sea and the reception is not good. I will mention that Auntie Li is trying to contact them. How have yo--"

Syaoran heard a loud thump. "Eriol, I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to push you" a sweet girl's voice said.

"Sakura, you should be very careful and not get pushed around." Syaoran heard Eriol said.
