Author's Note: Raven1098 Thanks for the love and the heart warming review. I hope you liked what happened next.

This is the last chapter, everyone. I had tons of fun writing for you. I hope you like the ending.

Chapter 13: Happily Ever After just took Time

Sakura POV

This is it, the big day. I stare at the dress Tomoyo made for me and once again she has out done herself. It's simple, just the way I like it. It's an off white strapless dress with a sweetheart neckline. It has a corset top and a flowing skirt with a long train. You can see that there's even a longer white material underneath the top layer. (A/N: Think of Taylor Swift's dress in Love Story) Even the jewellery has been prepared. There's a light gold headband and a bronze necklace.

It all depends on me now; whether I'm going or not. Could I take a life without Syaoran? Am I even willing to live a life without Syaoran? I have a lot to think about.

Syaoran POV

Home Coming Night

It's already half past nine. It has been an hour and a half since the dance started and still no sign of Sakura. Was she really going to give up on us? I was on the foot of the stairs, frantic.

"Calm down, Syaoran. You'll get your clothes all sweaty. You wouldn't like to embarrass yourself in front of Sakura don't you?" It was Eriol; accompanied by his weird girlfriend Daidouji.

"If she even shows up." I was losing all the optimism in me as the minutes ticked by

"She will, don't lose hope." Kosaiyo said, she came to the dance with Tomiyama as her date.

The two couples left me and started dancing when a new song started playing. In the middle of the song, I saw everyone stopped dancing. Their eyes were all glued to the top of the stairs. I looked to see what they were all looking at and saw the most beautiful sight ever seen by man's eyes. There at the top of the stairs was my reason for living and she was on her way down.

Sakura POV

I was making my way down the stairs and everybody's eyes were on me. It made me conscious. I started thinking, was my hair in place? Maybe it would've been better if I kept it loose than in a bun like this one. I saw Eriol and Tomoyo looking at me. Tomoyo was in a dark blue dress that reached uo to the floor. It was a halter type and it made her look like a goddess. She kept her hair on one side and accented her look with silver accessories.

The perfect accessory to top the look would be her boyfriend Eriol who was currently holding on to her. He was wearing dark blue under the suit. I turned my head to the other side and saw Daichi wearing a pink dress shirt under his suit. He patterned his look after his date Kosaiyo-chan who was in a light pink strapless dress. It had a sweetheart neckline and a tulle skirt. It reached up to a little higher than her knees.

I then focused my attention to the foot of the stairs. I swore, at that moment, my heart stopped beating. It was Syaoran standing there in an off white dress top underneath the black suit with a bronze necktie. I arrived on the last step and grabbed his extended hand. "Syaoran," I said softly. He placed a corsage that matched the white flowers by the pocket of his suit. I guess I was Li Syaoran's date after all.

We were dancing to a slow song until I got his attention, "Syaoran, do you mind if we go out for a while?" He stood up at accompanied me outside.

Once we got there, I didn't know how to start so he broke the silence

"I'm glad you came, Sakura" he said. "When you left a year ago, I lost my best friend and my girlfriend at the same time. I'm not sure if I can take that again."

"I'm sorry I left without hearing your explanation, Syaoran."

"I guess it's what I got for hurting you all these years. Sakura, if you take me back now, I promise I'll never hurt you again." He was waiting for my answer so I stood up and wrapped my arms around him and said,

"I'll have you hurt me over and over again if it meant I get to be with you. I love you Syaoran. I love you too much; it's starting to scare me."

He moved back a bit to look at me in the eye and said, "Don't be afraid. I love you too" He then liften my chin and kissed me. It was gentle, passionate and full of love.

I could see our friend cheering from inside so I grabbed Syaoran's hand and went back inside with him. A new song was playing it was "Once upon a Broken Heart" by the Beu Sisters. We were dancing along to it and thought that this song fit our story perfectly.

Once upon a broken heart
I was walking alone in the dark
Looking for a way to start again
What I wouldn't give for a friend
There was no love in my life
There was no light in my eyes
All the tears that I had cried and cried
Seemed like they'd never end

And I never believed fairytales came true
But now I know that they really do
Now that I found you, now that I'm here with you
Just look at the sunshine, and you
Showed me a world
That I'd never seen
I woke up and fell into this dream
Happily ever after just took time
Once upon this broken heart of mine

Long ago and far away
I could never dream of the day
That your love would come my way and stay
And sweep me away and I

Never believed fairytales came true
But now I know that they really do
Now that I found you, now that I'm here with you
Just look at the sunshine, and you
Showed me a world
That I'd never seen
I woke up and fell into this dream
Happily ever after just took time
Once upon this broken heart of mine

this is the way a fairytale feels
This is the way I know it's real
'Cause this is the way a broken heart heals

And I never believed fairytales came true
But now I know that they really do
Now that I found you, now that I'm here with you
Just look at the sunshine, and you
Showed me a world
That I'd never seen
I woke up and fell into this dream

We were in the middle of the dance when Syaoran kissed me once more and I kissed him back.

Happily ever after just took time
Once upon this broken heart of mine

After different girls, a lot of heartaches and a year apart we got our overdue happy ending after all.

The End.

Author's Note:

I hope you liked it.

Darkdoll25, I'm sorry but this is a SakuraxSyaoran fic. Daichi is just a friend who's there to make things interesting. His name was already patterned after his role.

Tomiyama Daichi was patterned after "Tomodachi" hinting that he will only be a friend. I hope you like the ending even if it they didn't end up together.

Who wouldn't like a guy like Daichi, right? He's sweet and reliable but some girls let those types of boys get away because they already have someone in mind even if the sweet guys would've been a better choice.

Sara Matsuda's name wasn't taken from anything but Aya's is.

Aya Kosaiyo was taken from 'Ayaw ko sa'yo.' In Filipino, that means 'I don't like you.' My first idea of her character should have been an antagonist. Her character was supposed to steal Syaoran from Sakura and that her name would hint that Syaoran doesn't like her that way because he only has eyes for Sakura. But while I was writing the chapter, I changed my mind and made her a match maker instead.

Thank you for reading and the awesome reviews.

Here are my ideas for my future stories, Tell me what you think about them:

Love is a Battlefield – The Amamiyas and the Lis have a history of gang wars participated by generation to generation. Is it possible for two people to find love in the midst of the chaos?

Tomoeda School for the Gifted – Do you believe in magic? Don't let the name of the school fool you. Children from all over the world who possess uncanny abilities are called hoping the school could help them control or even strengthen their powers. The school will also be their Safe house for their lives outside the campus will be in grave danger.

Love, Tommy
