The morning came un-welcoming to Sakura Avalon. She could feel the sun shining on her right arm. She forced herself to open her eyes to the new day. Sakura lazily looked over at the clock-12:30pm
"Aww, too early"! Sakura shoved her head back into her pillow, blocking out any signs of day. She turned around a bit to get comfortable. She was just drifting back into sleep when a rush of cold water was poured over her face.
""KEROOO"!!!! Sakura instantly knew who it was.
"Sakura you have to get up, you're not supposed to spend half your life sleeping"! Kero was getting frustrated by having to do this "everyday".
(There was a short pause before she spoke)
"Alright, alright". Sakura slowly pulled the covers off her. All of the warmness from the blanket was slowly turning into coldness from the air conditioning. She sat up on the bed and looked at Kero-chan.
"So, what's on your agenda this afternoon"? Kero asked.
Sakura slowly processed what Kero said into her brain.
"Ugh! It's just "another" day". Sakura quickly got up with that bit of energy, slipped her slippers on and stalked out the bedroom door.
She headed towards the bathroom and opened the door. The interior of her bathroom was of a cream color. She turned on the shower, testing its warmness with her finger for a bit. She removed her clothing and stepped into the warm shower. She reached for the Herbal Essence bottle and squeezed some of it onto her hand. She massaged it into her hair and rinsed it out under the shower. The rest of the shower was monotonous and boring. She finished with the shower and dried herself hurriedly remembering she was hungry. She wrapped the damp towel around her body. She made her way down to the kitchen and began to make breakfast. She made two over-easy eggs and toasted a couple of pieces of bread, and to wash it all down a tall glass of cold orange-juice. After her morning endeavors Sakura slouched down on one of the couches in the living room. She looked around the living room to see a note from Li laying on the coffee table.
It read:
NOTE
Sakura,
I will be home late from work again.
Love always,
Xiaong Lang
[A/N: I don't know how to spell his little nickname so don't kill me]
Sakura smiled thinking about "her" Li. She was lost in her thoughts for a while, reminiscing on her and Li's wedding day...
FLASHBACK
Their Wedding Day was set in a small park surrounded by cherry blossom trees. Sakura (now 21 years of age) grew her hair out to be just below her shoulders. Her veil was embroidered with small cherry blossoms and the rest of her dress was an ordinary white wedding dress.
Sakura POV/2nd person
I could feel a dampness form on my palms. I'm so nervous! I looked around at the elaborate setting made up for Li and I; there were chairs set up in a fashion such as a church (with an aisle in the middle) all of the chairs were facing a huge semi-circle of expensive flowers and an area inside the semi-circle in which Li and I would make out love official.
Groups of people started to flood into the park and seat themselves in one of the chairs. Naturally all of the Li family went to one side and the Avalon family on the other. I looked at all of the people smiling and chatting, they were all here for "me" and Li...]
Li POV/ 2nd person
I finished combing my nose-length brown hair and looked into the mirror and stared back at the reflection of me.
"This is it Li, your wedding day". Li said to himself.
I regret nothing about this day. I love Sakura with all of my heart and I will until my dying day. Images of beautiful Sakura swept through my mind.
"You ready for this Li"? Meilin asked.
I jerked back to life and gave her a tilt of my head. Meilin smiled and walked away. I heard the wedding music start to play and quickly took my position in the front. I glanced at all of the people who attended my wedding. I saw many smiling faces staring at me and also some weeping (with joy that is). The music became louder and I immediately looked towards where Sakura would be. Everyone stood and turned their heads to look at the bride. She appeared wearing a beautiful white wedding dress and her familiar smile. I just stood there looking at her, she was more beautiful then Aphrodite herself (if that's possible). I could tell by the look in her eye that she was nervous, but hid it well with a smile.
I could feel the blood rushing to my face, as she looked my way...
Sakura POV/2nd person
The music began and I strode out towards the long aisle that awaited me. When I reached my destination everyone was standing up and smiling at me. I smiled back best I could as I walked down the aisle, father in arm. I could hear Madison's footstep's a few paces behind mine carrying my veil. I looked up towards Li; he looked so cute in that tux!! His brown hair fell over his eyes framing his face nicely. He was smiling at me (while blushing furiously) and I parried it easily. I took my place next to Li and faced the priest.
This is the moment that I've been waiting for all my life. I looked at the priest as I daydreamed, faintly noticing his lips moving.
"Do you Sakura Avalon take this man to be your lofly wedded husband, till death do you part"?
Was that a question? Well of course it was a question, the question I've been wanting to be asked for so long. Without hesitation I spoke the words," I do".
Li is my reason of being. I will "always" love Li, everything about him brings a smile to my face.
I looked over at Li as" I do" came out of his lips. A smile played on my lips.
Li POV/ 2nd person
Sakura made the final step to be standing next to me, I smiled from ear-to-ear. I could read Sakura like a book, after being with her through so many battles and plus other social things I could easily read Sakura's face. I could tell she was daydreaming through the priest's ramblings. I was focusing on Sakura the whole time.
The priest's voice rose when he started getting to the point, I concentrated on him now.
"Do you Li Showron [A/N: s/p?] Take this woman to be your lofly wedded wife, till death do you part"?
Of course I do, I would do "anything" for her.
"I do". I answered simply.
"I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may kiss the bride".
I turned to Sakura and looked down at those beautiful emerald eyes for a moment before wrapping my arms around her and pulling her close for "the kiss".
Sakura POV/2nd person
Li pulled me in for "the kiss" and the feeling of his lips on mine was unbelievable. I felt so secure in his embrace that I could've stayed there forever. Body warmth combined to add to the moment. It seemed like an eternity, but it was broken by the sound of clapping. I glanced at the crowd but then quickly shifted my gaze back to "my" Li.
I could melt under his smile!
I leaned closer to him and whispered in his ear.
"Wa Ai Ne, Li. Always and Forever". I said. (Wa ai ne= I love you)
"And I you, Sakura".
FLASHBACK COMPLETED
The memory almost lulled me back to sleep but I quickly remembered that day was here. I shifted my gaze towards the kitchen wall, the calendar was there; I saw a blotch of red. I focused more-it was a red circle over today's date.
"Hm, I wonder what that's for"?
I got up from my former comfort and walked towards the calendar.
(There was a long pause)
There was a sharp intake of breath as Sakura gasped, eyes widening.
"I'm supposed to leave in 4 hours for that cruise that Madison invited me to"!!
It only took a mere 10 seconds to run up the stairs and pull out the suitcase. Kero flew in wondering what all of the commotion was about.
"What are you doing now, Sakura"?
"I'm only half packed, I have to hurry"!
Kero just stared at the scene for a while; Sakura was running around everywhere fetching odds-n-end's. The thought dawned on him: Ohhh yeah, that cruise!
"Do you know how far away the Harbor is from here"?
"......"
"An hour an 15, which leaves you 2 hours to get ready to go". Kero implied.
"That's all the more reason for me to hurry"!!
