I was not going to continue this chapter till Tuesday, actually, but since everyone like 'Faraway Dreams', I decided to continue with this so I could get on to it. Erm, well, I really guess I should have rated this story PG-13, because there is nothing really bad in it, and in this chapter I suppose is where it is the worst. This will most likely end up as the final chapter if I write it well, and if not, then I guess I will end up with 9 chapters. ^.^ Enjoy.

Disclaimer- Card Captor Sakura belongs to CLAMP, Nelvana, and who ever else, and maybe one day I will join them, but until then, I take no claim to this wonderful animé/manga. -.-

*A.N.*- Be Genki! (^.^) - (^.^) - (^.^) Kami-sama knows I am!

The Girl Who Stole the Moon

Written by Sakura Tsukino

September 15, 2001

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

"Sakura! Sakura-chan, please, wake up!" Eriol begged as he tried to stop a tear from going down his cheek.

"Sakura-koi, wake up!" Yukito cried as well, using the endearment he used only with Touya, but everyone could tell by his voice that it had been Yue had said that, not Yukito. Tomoyo suddenly smiled brightly and hugged Sakura tightly.

"Thank Kami-sama! Everyone! Sakura-chan is alive! She just feinted!" Tomoyo explained to them, as she cried happily.

Yukito felt a flood of relief surge through him, and knew it was not only him feeling that.

"Oh Sakura-chan! Your alive!" Touya cried happily. Touya picked her up and cradled her in his arms.

"Thank Kami-sama, kid, that you survived that!" Kero said angrily at the thought of nearly losing her.

"Oh man, kaiju, you don't stop do you!" Touya laughed. "You just keep getting problems and injuries thrown right at you!"

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

Slowly Sakura opened her eyes, and closed them again as a sharp pain filled her body and she nearly screamed at the intensity of it. What happened?! Kami-sama! I'm dead! She thought.

No, it can't be, I'm in pain, and dead people do not feel pain, do they? Once again she opened her eyes, but before her eyes could focus, she closed them again as once again she felt a sharp pain. She tried to move her hand, but she got the same results, and she just lay there, where ever she was.

Her body ached all over, and she felt as if she had been running for weeks, and that her magic had been drained out of her. Well, nearly. She still felt it inside her, but it was very weak.

Sakura let a small moan as she felt the beginnings of a very excruciating headache.

She must have laid there for about five minuets, until she opened her eyes a bit again, and ignored the sharp pain in her body.

Man, I'm surprised I didn't die, if I am feeling all this now! She thought, then slowly moved her arms to sit up. Her eyes adjusted and she soon realized she was in her room, and everyone was there with her.

Yukito and Touya slept in a corner of the room together, and Kero slept next to her. Tomoyo was in her sleeping bag on the floor, and both Eriol and Kaho had extra sheets and pillows. Even her father looked like he had fallen asleep in the chair next to her bed.

"Oh, I worried everyone so much. I'm so glad I didn't die…but I was so close. So very close. If I could have held on for just a moment more, I would have made it! It's not fair, and I hardly doubt they would allow me to try again after this.

Sakura looked up at where Yukito rested, and sighed. There he was, same old Yukito. There he was, inside of Yukito, same old Yue. Nothing had changed but her health.

She stood up slowly, but not slow enough. Her vision darkened, and her legs fell out under her. Her body screamed in pain, and she let herself fall, and was amazed that she did not fall on any one.

"Ahhhh!" She cried out as she lay there, in pain. It hurt everywhere! Her legs, arms, head, and body. She continued to scream out, hoping the pain would go away quickly, and knew she must be waking everyone up, for faintly, as if far away, she felt arms grab her, and try to gently help her, but it just made her hurt even more.

"S-stop! L-l-let me g-go!" she screamed at them as loud as she could, and was grateful when they did. She nearly screamed again as another pair of arms grabbed her, but stopped when she felt something wrap around her, something soothing.

Yue! She thought, and leaned against him, trying to make the pain go away.

"Y-Yue, pl-plea-se, m-make the p-pain go way." She begged him, clutching at what she could only assume was his robes. She felt her body calm down as the pain began to slowly fade, until it went away again.

She then noticed the voices, the softly encouraging words by her friends and family, and her eyes vaguely focused on Yue's shoulder, where her head rested. She was still lying on the ground, she realized. They probably could not get her up since she kept yelling at them.

"Shhh, Sakura-koi, it's alright." Yue whispered in her ear, and Sakura could feel his lips brush across her ear.

"Yue-chan…" she sighed dazedly. Her body was tired from the memory of the pain.

"Sakura-chan? What happened?" Tomoyo asked worriedly, kneeling behind where Yue lay, holding on to Sakura.

"Her body is still drained of most it's magic from the spell, and it will be a while before she will be able to move around much." Eriol explained to her, and if she had not been in so much pain at the moment, might have smiled as she saw that Eriol was sitting next to Tomoyo with his arm around her.

"Sakura-koi?" Yue asked her gently, and Sakura knew he was asking her if it was alright for him to move her back on the bed. She felt herself fill with love towards Yue as she heard him call her Sakura-koi. She had been surprised when he called her Sakura-chan before, but now he called her Sakura-koi.

"Please, no. I don't want to move. It still hurts…" Sakura pleaded to him.

"Of course, we won't make you move, Sakura-chan. Just rest." Fujitaka said to his only daughter lovingly. He was shocked to hear the Guardian of the Moon treat Sakura so lovingly, and for him to be the only one Sakura let touch her. Obviously they had been keeping things from him. They had all danced around the subject of what had happened to Sakura earlier.

"Yue, don't leave me, please." She said, grasping onto his robes even tighter. Yue sighed and pulled back.

"Yue?" Sakura asked confused as he pulled back, looking away from her.

"Remember Sakura-chan," he said, reverting back to calling her 'chan', "We can never be together, so don't get used to it." Yue sighed than stood up, and began to turn into Yukito.

"No! Yue-koi!" Sakura called standing up.

"Guardian of the Moon, the time to be one is coming soon. False is the form that you where, the body of one you must share. Now upon my word it's done. No longer shall two be one. With the power of my star, may mind, soul, and body apart to be one with each others love!" Sakura screamed out the spell hurriedly and as fast as she could, holding out her staff.

"No! Don't do it!" Kaho cried.

"Stop Sakura-chan!" Eriol gasped.

"Kaiju!" Touya called.

"Sakura-chan!" Tomoyo said in horror.

"Kid don't die!" Kero begged.

Sakura concentrated, and this time did not feel any of her magic being drawn out of her. I suppose I don't have enough magic to even activate a spell! She said, crying, and now what Yue said was true, and never would they be together. Sakura wiped the tears from her eyes, and looked up to see Yukito…and Yue standing right next to him.

"S-she did it." Eriol said in awe. Everyone stared at Yue and Yukito, as Yue and Yukito stared at each other.

"Sakura-koi did it, she really did it." Yue said in amazement.

"Yue-koi!" Sakura said, tears streaming down her cheeks, and Yue caught her up in his arms.

"How on Earth did Sakura-chan do it?!" Kaho asked shocked, smiling happily. Eriol shook his head in confusion.

"I- for once in my life it seems, I don't know."

"Kaiju! You did it! Your alive!" Touya said excitedly, grabbing Yukito and kissing him. Everyone ignored them, to happy that Sakura was alive and had done the spell.

"Sakura-koi, you truly are more powerful than even Clow Reed." Yue said to her, and Sakura laughed.

"I was not going to die until I did that spell correctly! And now here you are, both you and Yukito! I'm so glad, Yue-koi, just so glad!" Sakura replied. Yue smiled down at her, and kissed her cheek gently.

"Me too. Ai shiteru, Sakura-koi." Yue whispered and kissed her on her lips. Sakura was surprised, and was embarrassed that everyone could see them. However, Yue did not stop, and Sakura just erased them from her mind and fell into the kiss. Yue placed his hand at the base of her neck, and gently ran his tongue across Sakura's lips.

Sakura panicked. Oh no! What do I do? I've never kissed anyone before!

She wrapped her arms around his back unsurely, careful of his wings, and parted her lips slightly, afraid of what Yue might think.

Yue, however, just slid his tongue into Sakura's mouth. She felt warm suddenly, and moved her tongue to his hesitantly. She felt the air being pushed out of her lungs as Yue pressed her against his chest tightly, as if he would never let go, and Sakura wanted know if he would let go.

He felt like this moment would never end. He finally had his cherry blossom, and he had no intentions of ever letting her go. She was his, till the end of time.

While Sakura had been nervous at first, Sakura was now kissing him back just as much as Yue was, and was allowing her tongue to move with his. She shivered as she felt a gentle wind go over them, and let Yue hold her up.

"Eh, Sakura-chan? Where did she learn to kiss like that? You haven't been kissing like you where just a minuet ago with Yukito, where you, Touya?" Kero asked as he watched. Touya and Yukito had only stopped a moment ago. Touya glared at Kero.

"Don't bother them! Do you want to know what kind of Hell they have been going through?!" Touya said angrily.

"Well, still! Look at them! Now tell me, do you think Sakura-chan has had much experience of this in her life? No, I don't think so. This is all coming from Yue, I think it's time to stop him before he is taking her down to the floor." Kero muttered.

"What?!" Tomoyo gasped. Eriol grinned with memories not necessarily his.

"I agree with Kero-san. We better stop them." Eriol agreed. Yukito, who had been blushing at Kero's comment, had to nod in agreement also, but Fujitaka sighed and shook his head, saying how much Nadeshiko was going on about how this was so much like them when they where young.

When Touya heard his father, he turned and gasped. There was his mother! Nadeshiko stood their smiling and giggling like she always had. He could see her! That meant he had his powers back!

"Mother!" Touya gasped, and she smiled lovingly at him.

"Helloooo! Come on Sakura-san, Yue-san, break it up!" Ruby Moon complained. And Sakura gasped and blushed while pulling back.

"Oh, sorry everyone!" She apologized while her face turned red, and Yue seemed unconcerned about it.

"Yue-san, honestly! The girl has had like what, at most a simple peck from Syaoran, at most, and here you are, ravishing the poor girl!" Kero said, somewhat upset while he felt like laughing.

"Kero-chan!" Sakura squealed angrily.

"Everyone please! It is very late, lets go to our own rooms now." Fujitaka said sternly, though he was smiling brightly.

"Yeah, I'm tired." Yukito replied, yawning to show his point.

"Come on, Yukito-chan here is always sleeping." Touya teased, and pulled Touya with him to his old room. Kaho went to a spare room with Ruby Moon, and Spinel Sun and Kero went with Eriol. Fujitaka went to his own room, leaving Tomoyo, Yue, and Sakura alone. Tomoyo glanced at the two then smiled mischievously.

"Ah, well, better get going home now! I totally forgot to tell my mother, and if she finds out I'm gone in the morning, she will be so upset!" Tomoyo said, and before Sakura could yell at her, she was out of the room, closing the door behind her.

"Tomoyo-chan, you are such a mean friend!" Sakura yelled after her, though she felt like laughing at her friend's tactics.

"Don't worry about her, though I don't think your brother would be to happy about this. Do you really mind?" Yue asked. Sakura blushed.

"Erm, well, not really." Sakura answered truthfully. Yue smiled and pulled down the blanket, and placed Sakura down on the middle of the one-person bed.

"Where are you going to sleep, Yue-koi?" Sakura asked, yawning herself. She had used quite a bit of magic all at once that night.

"With you, of course." Yue replied, sitting down next to her desk like he had done the day after the Final Judgment, insisting she have the bed and not him.

"No! You can't sleep on the floor! You can have the bed." Sakura exclaimed, sitting up from bed, making Yue sigh.

"How about this then." Yue said, having a strange look in his eye that made Sakura stare at him in confusion.

"Huh?" She asked, and gasped as he picked her up, while making his wings vanish. "What are you doing?"

"I'm solving this problem." Yue answered, and he placed her back on the bed. Sakura was about to argue about how he should get the bed when he laid down next to her, and pulled the blanket over the both of them.

"Yue-koi." Sakura blushed, and Yue smirked at her as he pulled her to him and he raked his hands through her hair.

"Do you feel uncomfortable being with me, Sakura-koi?" Yue teased.

"No! Of course not!" She replied, not feeling tired any more. He smiled and he moved his hand down to her neck, to gently dance across her skin. Sakura shivered as she felt something dart down her back.

"Are you cold still, Sakura-koi?" he asked innocently as he leaned his face down close to hers.

"Eh, no." She answered nervously as she looked up into his eyes that where so close to hers. They where glowing brightly, lovingly, and like a little boy who planned to do something he knew would get him in trouble, but was excited to do so anyways.

"May I have a good night kiss?" he asked grinning. Sakura blushed again, and quickly pressed her lips against his, then pulled back.

"Ai shiteru." She muttered then pressed her face into his shoulder.

"You love me, but that is all I get for a good night kiss?" he asked, lifting her face out from his shoulder. "How about I give you a good night kiss instead?" Yue quickly leant down to meet her lips again. Sakura was so surprised that she gasped, and he slipped his tongue into her mouth before she could close her mouth.

Sakura sighed and let Yue take over. The kiss was making her feel warm and excited inside, and she did not know what to do. This time it was more intense than the last one, where Sakura could now tell he had been holding back.

Yue had his hands on either side of her face, and he held her head still so that he could access her mouth easily. Sakura kissed him back, and vaguely noticed that he had moved one of his hands to her shoulder, and he was slipping her shirt over her shoulder.

Sakura was not sure of why Yue was doing this, but completely forgot about it as Yue's mouth reluctantly left hers at last, and he began kissing her down her jaw slowly, while Sakura tried to catch her breath.

"Y-yue-koi. What are you doing?" she asked in confusion as he kissed her neck gently and she felt him smile at her words.

"You are so innocent, Sakura-koi." He smiled at her. "Even at this age." He shook his head. "Go to sleep, Sakura-koi. We have the rest of eternity to continue." Yue said into her ear as he placed her head on his shoulder.

"I'm confused. I don't understand what you mean." Sakura replied, tiredly. She still felt warm from Yue's kisses.

"It would be best if you did not still by morning. Sleep, Mistress of the Cards, and Lover of the Moon." He replied, Sakura hearing the enjoyment he took out of calling her the last title. Sakura just smiled and went to sleep.

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

"Kami-sama, he didn't!" Sakura opened her eyes drowsily to look up at Kero in the doorway. She felt so warm and rested with Yue, and she felt slightly annoyed that he had awakened her.

"Oh Sakura-chan! What did he do to you?! I knew I should not have left you last night!" he continued to rant.

"What are you talking about? Keep quiet or you are going wake Yue-koi up." Sakura said sitting up.

"Let him wake up! I want to talk to him! He might love you now, but he can't do this so soon, and when you're so young too!" Kero yelled angrily.

"What, you mean sleeping with me?" Sakura asked blushing. Kero stared at her.

"How can you say that so casually?! You just-you just- you just did that with him, and you act as if nothing happened!" Kero said exasperatedly.

"But Kero-chan, nothing did happen. What do you think we did?" Sakura asked.

"You mean you two did not do anything?" Kero asked hopefully.

"Nope." Sakura reassured. Kero looked thoroughly relieved.

"Cerberus-san, I can't believe you think I would do that to Sakura-koi." Yue said waking up, sitting up next to Sakura.

"Yeah well catching you both in the same bed was not a very helpful sight." Kero muttered.

"What are you two talking about? Oh! Your not talking about me and Yue actually…Kero-chan! How could you!" Sakura cried indignantly, blushing furiously at the thought.

"Well if Yue-san did not have such a history, I might not have worried so much." Kero said smirking, and Yue glared at him.

"Oh come on, you two, just quit it." Sakura yawned, and leaned lovingly against Yue, who wrapped an arm around her shoulders.

"Well I came to wake you up, everyone has already had breakfast. It's well past noon!"

"HOEEE?!" Sakura cried in alarm and looked at her clock. Kero was right, it was nearly one o' clock. She jumped up quickly and pulled out an outfit of a pink puffy skirt with a periwinkle shirt, with a matching over jacket.

"Get out so I can get dressed." Sakura ordered, holding up the outfit. Kero did so, but Yue did not move.

"Yue-koi, your no exception. You have to get out too while I change." Sakura said, not able to help the smile that spread across her face.

"What? I'm I no better than Cerberus?" he asked smirking, and stood up and left as well. Sakura could not help realize how much more aloof he was now that he did not have to share with Yukito. Now why is that? She thought.

She put on the outfit and walked downstairs and her eyes bugged. Tomoyo was sitting on the couch while Eriol was kissing her!

"Eriol-chan! Tomoyo-chan!" Sakura said in shock, than giggled as they pulled back flustered.

"Sakura-chan!" Tomoyo squealed in embarrassment.

"I apologize, Sakura-chan." Eriol said, blushing slightly.

"Don't worry! Where even now. You caught me last night, and I caught you this morning." Sakura winked. "But I guess you two would want me to leave now, so I'm going to find something to eat." She headed into the kitchen, and found Yukito just placing waffles on a plate.

"Yukito-chan!" Sakura greeted merrily and hugged him around the waist. Yukito placed the plate down and smiled at her.

"Morning Sakura-chan! I got you some waffles since Kero-san told me you where up." He said, pointing to the plate.

"Thanks, Yukito-chan!" She said, and sat down to eat. Everything felt so different now, somehow everything was going to change, and for the better.

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

Sakura ran, quickly after Tomoyo as Kero chased after her, breaking into a fit of giggles. Touya smiled as he watched her with his lover on an old sheet on top of the grassy hill. It had been Tomoyo's idea that they all go on a picnic. Everyone had been dragged along, even Spinel Sun and Ruby Moon who Nakuru was chasing Spinel Sun around to get him to eat one of her cookies.

Kero, Tomoyo, Sakura, and even Yukito where playing tag, and Sakura did not stop laughing even after her footing slipped on the wet grass and she rolled down the hill and ended up landing in the freezing lake.

"Ahhh!" She screamed as she stood up from the water. "It's cold!" They all laughed and Yue helped her out, and let her sit basically on his lap as he sat back down on the sheet with the rest of the group.

Kaho handed her an extra sheet that Sakura took thankfully and wrapped around her shoulders to keep her warm. Yue felt her shivering, and rocked her back and forth while rubbing his hands up and down her arms.

"Thanks, Yue-koi." She smiled a bit, wrapping her arms around his neck and placing her face into his shoulder, catching the scent of his silvery hair.

Tomoyo came running up, cheeks flushed, with Kero still chasing after her. She quickly sat down next to Eriol, and Kero, surprised, kept going before he realized his pray was gone.

Tomoyo smiled innocently at his angry expression and picked up a jello container and tossed it to him.

"Here, this is make you happy." She said knowingly. And it did, as he caught it and began to eat it happily. Nakuru finally caught poor Spinel Sun, and pulled out a cookie she had baked.

"Now, Suppi-chan! Try it!" She ordered, and stuffed it into his mouth before he could say anything.

"Mmph!" he muttered as he choked it down. Sakura shook her head at him, and smiled around at everyone, letting her gaze stop at Yue lovingly. Everything was going to work out now. Of course, their was still going to be magic attempting to attack them again and again, but that all came with being and being around sorcery.

And she accepted it all, for with out sorcery, as Tomoyo had told her what seemed like years ago, they would never have gotten together.

"Ai shiteru." Sakura whispered to Yue, kissing him lightly on the cheek. Yue smiled widely down at her.

"Ai shiteru, my cherry blossom." Yue replied, bending down to kiss her properly, and Touya rolled his eyes as he saw them, and Tomoyo quickly zipped out her camcorder as Spinel Sun's angry words where heard in the back ground pointed at Nakuru, who just laughed.

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

Now that is probably thee shortest chapter I have ever written for TGWSTM, but it's the last, so you are not like 'Where is the next friggin chapter already?!'. I hope it was good, and the ending did not come out badly. Honestly, I am sooo glad I finished this! Truthfully, in the past, most stories that are long, I have not finished. I just can't get into them. But then now that I am writing romance, I seem to be able to finish them. ^.^ I'm so proud, hehehe. Now that this is done, once and for all, I am going to go on to my other story, that I hope turns out just as good as this one, maybe even better? Or is that to much to ask for? x.x Hehehe ^-^ Thank you everyone!

"With out the Moon, who will guide the stars?"
