"Seqeul to Christmas: Epilogue"

~*Flashback of what happened last time*~

~*Flashback*~

""Hi guys," said the young man who then bended towards Meilin and gave her a teenie kiss.
"Hi," everyone replied.
"How'd you all sleep?" he asked cheerfully.
"The same as always," said Tomoyo.
"Well, then I assume that you sleep not so good each night," joked Shiang.
"For your information, I sleep like a horse," said Tomoyo, "OOPS!! I meant, I sleep good each night."
Everyone just laughed. Tomoyo looked at each and everyone sternly and the laugh became merely a giggle and then a smile, but as she stopped the glaring, everyone burst into a fit of laughter, all except Sakura and Syaoran.
"Wha--t's t-t--he matter Li, you're n--n-not laughing?" said Meilin.
"You too Sakura--this is--l--l-like the funn--funniest thing ever," said Shiang.
"Oh yeah, I bet it is, but...but..." Sakura said as she looked at Syaoran.
"But...we don't want Tomoyo to be mad at us, that's what." replied Syaoran in haste. He then thought, 'Phew!!!!'
"Yeah, exactly," said Sakura, and then she looked at Tomoyo, who was laughing herself. That made Sakura laugh too. She then thought, 'Yeah, exactly.'

~*End of Flashback*~

Sakura answered, "And when you all laughed, your aura showed and I was able to see the black aura that each of you had, though the aura that Shaing had was a little lighter than the two of you."
"Lucky guess, don't you think??" Tomoyo asked Meilin.
"Oh yeah!!" answered Meilin, but after a pause she said, " so...that's why you wanted to hear jokes, Sakura??? I knew that there was something fishy about the idea."
"Really, Sakura. Come to think of it, it's a pretty good plan," complimented Tomoyo.
"Thanks," answered Sakura.

~*Flashback of the last time ended*~

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Where are we going???" asked Meilin.
"Trust me on this one, ok?" said Shiang.
"Ok. And why did you say 'trust me on this one'? Do I not always trust you?"
*Sweatdrop*
"Anyways..." said Shiang.
"This is going to be a long, long day," said Meilin.
"Oh yeah..."

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"What are you doing???" asked Sakura.
"I want to take you someplace," replied Syaoran.
"But why the blindfold???" asked Sakura, who was getting way too anxious.
"Because the place I want to take you is very special, and I want it to be a surprise."
"Ohhh...wow!!! Please tell me what it is."
"Sakura!!!"
"Please!! Pretty please???"
"Please Sakura. Don't make me tell you. I want you to go there and then tell me yourself what you think, ok?"
"Alright..." she said as she gave up. 'Arghh...he'll never change. He'll be stubborn as ever.'
'Arrgghhh...sheesh...why doesn't she change??? I swear that she had made those puppy dog eyes under the blindfold, even though I can't see it. She'll be as stubborn as ever,' thought Syaoran.

RING! RING! RING!

"What now??? The darn phone is ringing," said Syaoran, "Please don't go anywhere. Oh alright. Here, come with me." He said as he took her hand and led her inside he room, where the phone was ringing. He answered:
"Hello?"
"..."
"Yeah...I'm fine."
"..."
"Ok, I'm listening..."
"..."
"I already told you what my answer was!"
"..."
"Yeah..."
"..."
"Look, I can't do that, ok?"
"..."
"Of course I care about you."
"..."
"Yeah...so??? You know what my answer will be, so there is no use for me to repeat it."
"..."
"Of course I care about Meilin."
"..."
"That's my final answer, ok?"
"..."
"No, I don't want to talk about it anymore..."
"..."
"Bye bye."

(Hangs up)

"Sakura???"
Sakura is nowhere to be found. Syaoran searched the whole house, and he even went outside the house to see if she was outside in the garden: she wasn't there either.
"Where did she go??? Why did she leave me all of a sudden??? Gotta find out!!"

Force of light with ancient spin,
Send forth the magic power within.
Force know my plight,
Release the light.
Dash card!!!

He dashed to Sakura's house, just to find out that Kero was there munching on his cookies. He appeared as a blur because of the Dash card.
"That was an awfully familiar blur," cried Kero. He looked around and saw no one. "I've had too many of these stale cookies, but they're still yummy. Yum!!! ::crunch :: :: crunch ::"

Syaoran 'dashed' frantically all around the place. Suddenly he stopped.
'I think I know just where to find her.'
He dashed towards Tomoeda Park, and as soon as he entered, he saw the auburn haired girl.
Dash card, return.
"Hey Sakura."
"Huh???" said the auburn-haired girl.
"Ohh...sorry. I thought you were someone I know."
"We could get to know each other though," said the auburn-haired girl, "My name is Gia."
"I don't have time for all this," he said. He looked all around and suddenly saw the 'right' auburn-haired girl on the swings. He walked towards her, making a silhouette of her in his mind. She didn't see him coming towards her though, and it seemed that her thoughts were somewhere else...
"Hey Sakura. Why did you leave me?"
"Hoe??? Oh...nothing. Just needed fresh air."
'You could've opened the windows', he thought, but didn't want to bombard her with that question.
"Ok. Do you mind if I sit here?"
"No, it's a free country."
Syaoran smiled and so did Sakura. They looked at each other and as soon as their eyes met, Sakura stopped smiling.
"What's the matter, Sakura?" asked Syaoran.
"N-N-Nothing," she said as she shivered.
He stood up and wrapped his jacket on her.
"Feeling better?" he asked.
Sakura started crying.
"What's the matter? The jacket not providing enough warmth?"
"No..."
"Ok, let's go to my place and I'll get you another jacket," he offered.
"That's not what I meant. I meant that I am content and there is enough warmth in this jacket, cause it's yours."
"Huh???????" said a confused Syaoran.
"What???"
"Oh...nothing."
"Oh..." Sakura was expecting an answer to her statement.
"You didn't answer me," said Syaoran after a long pause.
"Answer what?"
"Why you left?"
"Syaoran...I care about you..."
"I know that Sakura," he said as he hugged her and pulled her towards him. "I know."
"Then..."
"Then what???"
"And do you care about me???"
"Sakura??? Of course I care about you. What kind of a question is that?"
"Then you won't leave me, right??"
"No, never. I'll never leave you." he said as he hugged her tight.
"Then why did you say that?"
"Say what???"
"What was that conversation about??"
"The one that I was having with my mom??"
"Your mom???!!!"
"Yeah...she was asking me to give her the final answer about me being the leader of the Li clan. I said that I would not leave you, and I would never give you up for any power that I could have. And she asked me again and I told her that I would still say no."
"Ohh..."
"Is that what you were worried about? That I would leave you???"
"Yeah...well, sort of."
"What do you mean, sort of???"
"I mean...well, it's kind of embarrasing."
"Yeah...? I would definitely want to hear that then," he said with a smile.
"Yeah...now you're laughing and when I tell you, you'll say: 'how could you even think that Sakura???' I know you'll say that."
"Ok, I promise. I won't say that. Deal?"
"Deal. While you were talking...I heard you say that you cared about someone. At the time, I didn't know that you were talking to your mother. So, I assumed that you were talking to someone else. And then...I kinda'...you know...ran out of the house," she said sheepishly.
"How could you even think that, my Cherry Blossom???"
"You promised!!!"
"I promised not to say ' how could you even think that, Sakura, not Cherry Blossom. Oh, will you smile???"
"There, happy???"
"Very. But not really happy."
"And why is that, my little wolf?"
"Because...you haven't found out my surprise yet."
"Then tell me!!"
"I won't tell you!!!"
"Ok, let's go." she said excitedly.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Eriol's place...

(This is a sililoquy--a one person's dialogue)
What shall I give her??? Valetine's day is today...and I still haven't come up with any good ideas. What does she expect me to get her--a camera??? I know that she likes cameras and stufff, but I don't think that it would make a Valentine's day gift. Oh man!!!! I know...I should go to the jewelry store and look there. Maybe, I'll find the perfect gift...I hope that she likes it. Oh Eriol!!! How will she like it if you don't even have the present that you want to give it to her...

(Eriol falls on the sofa with exhaustion)

Who knew that finding the perfect gift for her would be the hardest thing. And what is up with going to the jewelry store anyways when I can make my own jewelry with my magic, right here...ahhh!! Let's see...what stone does she like??? Hmm...oh darn!!! I don't even know that!! I know what I'll give her!!! That's just perfect!!!!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Do I have to wear the blindfold again??" asked Sakura.
"Not if you don't want to!" replied Syaoran.
"Well...let me have it. I'll wear it!!! I don't want to spoil the surprise."
"Thanks. That was very nice of you."
:: Sakura giggles ::
"I like it when you smile," said Syaoran.
"Thanks," she replied.
"Let's get on with it," he said.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"This is so nice, Shiang!! I can't believe that u did all this for me!!!"
"I love you and I think that this is the perfect way for saying that without using any words!"
"WOW!!! A romantic candle light dinner: Fried chicken--my favorite. That is soooooo nice!!!"
"Thanks for loving it, now tell me what it tastes like, ok?"
"Uh...yeah..."
"I don't cook bad, you know!" said Shiang sarcastically.
"Alright, alright!! No need to be all sensitive about it!! I'm eating!!!" she said sarcastically but with a smile on her face. "WOW!!!!! This is like...the best meal I've ever eaten!!!"
She said with her mouth full. "Sorry," said she as soon as she realized that fact.
Shiang just smiled.
"Thanks for the best Valentine's Day ever!!!"
"Oh...this isn't over yet." replied he.
"It isn't????"
"Nope..."
"Oh..."

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"WoWiE!!! These flowers are very pretty!!! Thanks sooo much!! They mean a lot to me!!!"
"No problem!! These were the only pretty flowers in Tomeoda, and nothing is prettier than you!!!"
"AWWW!!!! Thanks," said Tomoyo.
"Was that considered as a compliment?"
"Of course!!"
"Good, 'cause now comes the next part," he takes a small book out of his pocket, and starts flipping the pages,"let's see...done with the flattering part...done with the flowers...done with the compliments...hmmm??? What's next??? Oh yeah..."
He turns his eyes away from the book to find Tomoyo half-shocked and in tears.
"What's the matter???" he asked innocently.
"What's the matter???" She mimicks him by saying the sentences that he had said, "done with the flattering part...done with the flowers..done with the compliments...let's see...what's next??? Hah! You're trying to flatter me???"
"Tomoyo, please have a grip. That's not what I meant. You see..."
"Yeah... of course I see!!!" Tomoyo was really getting ticked off.
"I didn't mean that!!! look...this is the first time that I've ever had a relationship...and I was worried what you'd think about me..."
"I love you for who you are. I don't want you to be a romantic guy or anything...I--I--I just love you!!!!"
They hugged and caressed each other.
"I want to take you somewhere," said Eriol.
"Where?" she asked in reply.
"Somewhere in the skies..."
"In the clouds???"
"If that's where you want to go..." he said with a smile.
"WOW!!! This is going to be the most perfect Valentine ever!!!!" she smiled.
'You have no idea...you certainly have no idea.' Eriol thought.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"This is just fantastic...and romantic!!!!" said Meilin with a smile.
"That's why I did this!!!" replied Shiang.
"Thanks, Shiang." [a pause] "Hey! What's the matter???"
"Uh...nothing..."
"Something is definitely wrong!!!"
"Actually, nothing is wrong! Everything is just great..."
"Huh???" Meilin was confused.
"Meilin?"
Shaing went down on one knee besides the chair where Meilin was sitting.
"Will you marry me???" he asked.
"I will!!!" she cried.
"Will you marry a person who will have no place in your family and clan?"
"I will!!!!" she cried again.
"And will you marry a person who doesn't have that many magical skills???" he asked.
"I don't need magic...and I will!!" This time she cried even louder.
"Then please let me kiss my bride!" he pleaded.
They did.
"This is no doubt, the BEST VALENTINE'S DAY present ever!!!" she whispered to Shiang.
"Oh yeah..."

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Ooooo...pink, white, light purple, and red clouds!! This is magnificent!!!" thought Tomoyo outloud.
"Glad that you like it!!" smiled Eriol.
"This is so sweet of you!!!" she giggled.
'Nice...now when does the time to do the real thing comes???' thought Eriol.
"That's what's good about being a first-class magician: you get to do whatever you want!"
"That's what I tried to do...but I just messed everything up..." Tomoyo said in a slow but steady voice.
"It's alright...it's alright."
"Thanks for comforting me," she said with a smile.
"Whatever I can do to make you smile, my little angel."
"Angel!!! I like the sound of it."
"If you like, I could build a house for us here--in the clouds--and we can live happily together!!!" he said.
"Really?? Will you do that??? And for me???"
"Of course!!! Your'e my star!!!! You're my world!!! Like I said, I would do anything to marry you."
"What did you say???" asked Tomoyo as she was in shock.
"What did I say???" he asked.
"You said: 'I would do anything to marrry you'."
"What I really meant to say is: I would do anything to make you happy. Sorry about the mistake."
"Oh...that's ok," she replied gloomily.
"Tomoyo???"
"Yeah..."
"Would you like to marry me???"
"Yes!!!!"
"Willl you marry me???"
"Yes!!!!!!!!!"
"WOW!!!" was the only word that he could utter at the time.
"I have waited so long for this time!!!!" is what she could say.
"Thanks," replied Eriol.
"No...thank you!!! Thank you for making my dream come true..."
"No problem!!! Your wish is my command!!" Eriol said.
"If that's the case..." she said as she rubbed her hands together.
"Well?? Do you have a wish???" he asked with curiousity.
"Uh-huh" she said innocently.
"Before you say anything..." he cut her off," this..." he took out something from his pocket, "this is for you!"
"Oh my gosh!!! AHHHH!!!!!!! What is this???"
"This is your wedding ring!!! Do you like it???"
"Like it?? I love it!!! A crystal ring!!! This is so awesome!!!"
"Thanks...now what is your wish, your royal highness?"
"Oh yeah..." she replied.

[the wish is secret!!! You'll find out soon though!!]

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Can I take it off now???" Sakura asked....for about the millionth time.
"Just wait a couple more minutes," replied Syaoran...for about a millionth time too.
"Okay..." replied she....for the millionth time.

[Audience: "Hey Sakura1985!!! Get on with the story!! We're dying here!!!! Sakura1985: Okay...but patience has many rewards!!! Remember that!!!]

"And here we are..." sid Syaoran with a smile, "let me help you out."
"Uh-huh..." she said, "and can I remove the blindfold first???"
"After you get out of the car..." a smile curled up his lips at the thought of how his 'wait a few minutes' sentence stinged her.
"Alrighty...I'm out! Now can I take it off???"
"Um...let's see...I don't know...maybe the scene is way too much for you..."
"That's it!! I'm taking it off myself..." she hastily took off the blindfold to see a face in front of her about to burst into giggles.
"What's so funny???" she asked.
"The way you were getting irritated!!"
"You think that's funny, well..." he cut her off as he spun her around to the opposite direction, "here's..." she stopped.
"This is the place you wanted to bring me to??? This has to be heaven!!!"
"I'd consider it to be my heaven," he said, "Sakura...do me a favor..."
"Yeah..." she said without any interest...she was still taking in the sights that she was in front of.
"Use your float card..." he asked.
"O-kay," she said.

In front of her were so many beautiful flowers. Farther from her were pretty purple Violets; in the middle of the field were white Daisies; and in front of her were pink Cherry blossoms. She inhaled the scents of all these flowers, which were in between bright green bushes, before she took out her card.

Key of Clow,
Power of Magic,
Power of Light,
Surrender the Wand,
The force Ignite,
Release!!!

Float card,
Take us to the other side of the field!!!

A large, pink bubble appeared and entrapped Sakura and Syaoran in it.
"Sakura, stop the float card in between the field, ok?"
"Sure..." she replied.
Float card,
Steady and stop!
"That better???" she asked Syaoran.
"I guess I'll find out," he says as he points towards the field down below.
"Hoe???"

There was a straight line of bushes. And the whole field was divided into 3 sections, in between each, a line was mafe out of red roses. The first field had Violets, the second: daisies, and the third: cherry blossoms. The three different flowers were in a certain pattern. They seemed to be saying... I love you.
([I] [heart] [U])
Sakura stared at Syaoran for going through with all this, and he just stood there nervous, thinking what she would say to him or why she was staring at him.

(note: The words in brackets above are used to describe the design and the words present in the garden)

"That is so beautiful!!! How thoughtful of you!!!" she said as she hugged him.
"Thanks, but there is more. I'd be real happy if you'd like this one," he said after recieving the warm appreciation hug from Sakura.
"There's more?"
"Look up in the sky," he said as he pointed it out.
There were clouds which had some letters too, and they spelled out: WILL YOU MARRY ME SAKURA
She turned around and looked at him, "Do you really mean it?"
"With all my heart," and again he was nervous; waiting for her reply.
"I will marry you and be yours forever!!!" she shouted.
"And I will be yours, and I will be yours," he repeated over and over again.
"I love you," said she.
"And I love you," he said as he gave her a kiss.
"I love you more," she argued.
"Can't win there!"
"I was expecting more of a romantic reply, like: I love more than anyone has ever loved anyone."
"Here," he said as he handed her something.
"What's this?"
"The formal way to propose is to give a ring...and I hope that you read what's written on it."
"Uh-huh," she said as she took the ring box from his hand and opened it. Inside she finds a very beautiful gold ring with these words inscribed on it:

Love you forever.

She hugged him and they fell in a deep embrace...
Suddenly....Sakura and Syaoran heard someone say...
"Awww!!! Now this is the most perfect Valentine's Day ever..."
"Glad that you're happy..."

"That sounds like Tomoyo and Eriol!" said Sakura.
"Oh yeah..." said a shocked Syaoran.
"We better hide," whispered Eriol from a distance, "we don't want to get caught."
"You're right," she replied, "let's hide over here," she said as she pointed to the top of the tree.
"Yeah...it is a fine view," again he whispered.
"Oh yeah..."said Tomoyo.

[Note: Sakura and Syaoran don't know that Tomoyo and Eriol are taping them]
"Anyways...Sakura, will you marry me???" asked he.
"Of course!!!" she replied.

They hugged each other and slowly their eyes met. They melted. Sakura held tight to Syaoran, and he held her tight. Her hands reached his neck and pulled it down to the most perfect kiss ever seen.

"Thanks for the best Valentine's day ever..." said Sakura.
"Yeah..." he said.
"What's the matter?" she asked worriedly.
"Look down below," he asked.
She did, only to find...
"Let's get down there," she proposed.
"Oh..alright," he said.
"Mom, what are you doing here," he asked.
"Hi Mrs. Li, how do you do?" she greeted.
"Oh I'm doing very well myself...and I see that my son is doing just fine," she said as she eyed the ring wore by Sakura.
"Oh..." she said with a sheepish smile when she saw where Syaoran's mother's eyes went.
"What are you doing here mother?" asked Syaoran.
"I totally forgot about that, but...I'm not the only one who's here..."
"What do you mean???" asked Syaoran.
She waved her hand behind her as to signal the come out of about 10 people. Slowly, Syaoran's sisters came out and then came out the leaders if the clan. Syaoran gasped.
"What is this all about??? I told you already...I will not leave Sakura," he said as he clutched Sakura's hands tightly.
"You can be the leader and marry that girl," one of the leaders spoke up.
"Hoe???" said Sakura.
"What???" said Syaoran.
"Yeah...we see how much you love each other...we have hearts too, you know," said the other leader.
"Congratulations," said the Li sisters as they came forward towards the couple and gave Sakura a warm welcome.
Li sighed...
"Are you ok???" asked Sakura.
"No...not till you give your answer about all this," said Syaoran.
"What do you mean?" asked Sakura.
"I mean...you promised to marry me...but are you willing to be the wife of a---" he was cut off as a soft finger was placed on his lips.
"I would go anywhere and be anyone to stay with you," said Sakura as tears swelled up in her eyes.
"Thank you..." he said as he recieved the kiss after the warm and comforting reply from her, "Thank you."
"You're always welcome."

Down come flower petals on S+S, and down came Eriol and Tomoyo.
"You know...this is the best video that I have made so far...and you know what I'll call it," Tomoyo asked Eriol in front of a shocked S+S couple and "their" family and clan leaders.
"What'll you call it?" asked a curious Eriol.
"Call it...The Love Adventure of Sakura and Syaoran," said Meilin.
"Huh???" said everyone but Tomoyo and Eriol.
"You betcha'," replied Tomoyo.
"Oh yeah..." said Shiang.
