Starting Over: Part 7
Author's notes: Hey ppl! Well here is part 7. Yes I know I said it was going to be the epilogue, but I want a part 7 then I will wrap things up from there. Well Syaoran has finally come to his senses. Afraid he was going to be Meiling's husband, ne? But the story still isn't over, so lets get on with the story. And you all the legal mumbo jumbo. The only thing I own is this storyline and I am proud of it! When I first came out with this story, it wasn't supposed to be the way it is now. I actually had a different storyline for it, but I started writing and this is what came out of it and I am glad that everyone loved it so. Well lets get on with the story…
You know the ages of the characters already so I don't need to tell you. (^.^)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As Syaoran continued to walk toward her, he began to feel Sakura's strong aura. He could feel all of
the emotions she was feeling at the moment. There was depression, anger, confusion, and most of all
the love that she felt for him. He felt so terrible for hurting her so much. All this time he knew he was
in love with Sakura, but he pushed her away and treated her like she meant nothing to him, which was
the complete opposite of what she means to him. And he now finally knows that.
As Sakura looked up at the sky, with tears falling from her face to the ground. She could feel Syaoran
coming nearer and nearer to her. She was so frightened by what he might say or do to her. Really she
was only scared of what he would say because she knew that Syaoran would never hurt her physically,
but verbally was another matter… Sakura didn't think she could stand one more blow to her already
shattered heart. Memories of her card capturing days when Syaoran had entered her life were now
flashing before her eyes as if she would forget all that she knew in a few minutes. All her energy was
being used to help her remember every detail in each memory that was embedded in her mind to make
her feel as if she were reenacting it all again. She began to smile a bit as she saw each moment of her
life with Syaoran. The laughter, the good, and the bad and it was all right there replaying before her
eyes telling her that she could never forget Syaoran because without him, she might not be who she is
today. She could have turned out to be a completely different person… She then looked at the erase
card in her hand. Could she really go through with it? No, it what came to mind… If Syaoran told her
for the last time that he didn't love her, she would just have to get on with her life, no matter how
painful it would be in the beginning.
As Syaoran started getting close to Sakura, she began to glow a pink colored aura and started to
stumble when she tried to start walking. He ran up to her and caught her before she fell to the ground.
He kneeled down on the ground with Sakura in his arms.
"Sakura are you okay?!" said Syaoran worried as heck for his love.
"I am just feeling a bit faint. I just used too much energy today." She looked up at him with a
questioning look on her face. "So, have you made your decision?" she asked.
Syaoran looked up at her and smiled and hugged her tightly. Sakura was shocked at this, but then just
hugged him back. "I was such a baka to try to make myself believe that I could love anyone else, but
you. And you were right, the only reason I was marrying Meilin was so I could lead the Li Clan so that
my mother and whole family would be proud of me. I am so very sorry for all the pain I have inflicted
on you my Ying Fa," said Syaoran with a loving/ tender look in his eyes.
Sakura started to blush a bit when Syaoran called her his Ying Fa. She started to cry again because
she was so happy. She thought she had lost Syaoran forever, but fate brought him back to her. But
she then fainted because of all the energy she used up (remember, she used a lot of energy to remind
her of all her memories of Syaoran). Syaoran picked her up and held her close to him as he held her.
He then started walking back to the chapel with Sakura in his arms.
When he got there all of the guests and his family had started to wake up. 'Guess the sleep card wore
off.' When everyone got their thoughts back together they all stared at Syaoran holding the Mistress of
the Cards. Meiling became furious when she saw this.
"Put that tramp down right now! You are supposed to be marrying me, REMEMBER?!" said Meiling
who was red in the face. She ran over to where Syaoran was standing and pulled Sakura right out of
his arms and let Sakura land hard on the wooden floor.
"SAKURA!" yelled Syaoran. He was about to run to her side and pick her up, when Meiling grabbed
his arm and pulled him toward the alter. "Come now, time to get married," she said. "I am so sorry
Meiling, but I can't marry you. Not now, not ever," he said looking at Meiling face to face. "B-but
you said you wanted to marry me!" she said with tears in her eyes. "I know I said that, but I was doing
it for the wrong reasons. I love you as a friend and nothing more. I am so sorry that I made you think
that. I love my Ying Fa. I can't imagine my life without her… can't you understand that?"
Meiling looked at Syaoran, and then turned her attention to Sakura who starting to wake up and was
making yelps of pain as she tried to get up. She then sighed and knew what she had to do. She walked
over to Sakura and helped her up.
Sakura was surprised that of all people, Meiling was helping her up and was not trying to hurt her for
once. "Meiling-chan, what is going on?" since she had fainted and not known what had happened in
the last few minutes. Meiling looked at her and actually smiled. Not an evil smile, but an actual
genuine smile. She handed Sakura a bouquet of cherry blossoms and peonies. "It seems that you have
won Kinomoto…I mean Sakura. You won Syaoran's heart. There is no more use for me trying to
stand in the way. I always knew that he loved you, but I just couldn't allow myself to believe it because
I love him, at least I think I love him. I thought he could grow to love me if we got married, but it only
seems that he would be miserable because he wouldn't be with you. I announce that at this moment I
am no longer marrying Syaoran. He belongs with you Sakura. Just promise me that you will take care
of him. Now lets get on with the marriage of Syaoran and Sakura."
Meiling then hugs Sakura. "I promise I will take care of him and love him forever, and remember that
you are never alone. You have me and Syaoran, your friends," said Sakura with a smile on her face.
Meiling then told Sakura to go over to Syaoran. Sakura nodded and started walking towards him.
She starts running and jumps into his arms and wraps her arms around him tightly. "Please, don't
ever leave me again, please…" she said, holding on to him so tight as if he would disappear at that
very moment. "Shhhh….don't worry my Ying Fa. I promise I will never leave you ever again. Just do
me one thing," he said. "What is it?" asked Sakura with wondering what he wanted her to do for him.
He began to kneel down on one knee and took her hand in his and looked at his love. "I never want to
lose you again. And to do that I will need to be with you every minute of everyday of every week for
the rest of my life. So, will you do me the honor of marrying me, that is if you want to spend the rest
your life with such a baka…"
Sakura looked at him and kneeled down so she could look at him face to face. "I never want to lose
you, so yes of course I will spend the rest of my life with you. And you are not a baka, you are kawaii
*giggles*." And with that she kissed him sweetly on the lips. Syaoran blushed and kissed back. When
the kiss ended, everyone who was in the chapel was looking at them and they both turned bright red.
"Now there is one thing that you have to do for me, Syao-chan," said Sakura.
"Anything for you my dear Ying Fa," he said.
She giggled and said " You have to call my dad and brother and tell them that we are getting married."
"NANI?! Why me?! I can imagine it now, your dad and brother get here and you become a widow in
3 seconds because Touya is going to kill me when he sees me," said Syaoran.
Sakura just laughed. "Well you still have to call them and then after you tell them I will talk to them,
ok?"
He sighs. "Oh ok…"
"KAWAII," said Tomoyo (they forgot about Tomoyo-chan for abit).
Both Syaoran and Sakura smile for the camera and blush all kinds of shades of red.
"I will make your wedding dress and decorate the place and get a caterer and invite everyone we know
and…(she goes on and on from there)."
Sakura talks to Tomoyo about things for the wedding and Syaoran drags himself to the nearest phone
to call Sakura's family.
At all this, Syaoran's mother smiled and was glad that her son finally followed her heart. 'I am so
proud of you my son,' is what she thought at that moment.
