Disclaimer: I do not own Card Captors :(
AN: This is going to be the epilogue to finish off some questions that were unanswered. I was going to keep them as a mystery for you to think about, but I decided it would be better to just tell you straight forward ;) Sakura and everyone is now 23.

Shattered Blossoms
The Epilogue



Sakura looked out the foggy window. It was raining softly, and the sky was clouded with dark clouds. *Should I tell Shaoran?* She jumped from her seat when her door opened.

"Hey the gaki's here," mumbled Touya.

"He is not a gaki!!" Sakura shot back and ran down the stairs to greet her boyfriend. "Konnichiwa Shaoran!" She ran into his arms, and they hugged.

"Ugh! Don't do that in front of me!" Touya stuck his tounge out.

Sakura stuck her tounge back at him. "Well, you better get use to it oni-chan!" Then she turned back to Syaoran. "Why are you here anyways?"

"Don't you remember Sakura? You said you wanted to go to the mall," Syaoran said with a quizzical look on his face.

Sakura sweatdropped, "Oh yeah! Well let's hurry! We, um want to hurry before the mall closes!" She said, dragging him out the door.

"Uh...Sakura...you still need to put your shoes on!!" Syaoran sweatdropped.

"Oh! Oh yeah! Heh!" She quickly slipped her shoes on.

"What's with you today Sakura?" He stopped walking.

Sakura looked at him. *Hmmm...oh whatever! I'll get it over with!* "I wanted to tell you something....."

"What is it?"

"Er...um...it's bad ok?" Sakura stammered.

Syaoran nodded slowly. "So...what is it?"

"Erm...this happened like five years ago already....when we were 17..." Sakura started. "Well, I haven't told anyone yet...but I think I should tell you."

"Go on..." Syaoran took her hand.

"I was walking home one day...alone...and I bumped into a guy...." Sakura gripped Syaoran's hand tightly. "And...something happened...he..he was drunk...and he..."

Syaoran's eyes widened. "You don't mean he..."

Sakura stared up at him ."Y..Yeah..." She looked away from him. "Yeah...so I'm not pure anymore Syaoran..."

Syaoran clenched his fists tightly together. *Damn that guy! Argh, I would kill him if he's still around!*

"You're not mad? Or anything right...?"

Syaoran gave her a tiny smile. "I'm...I'm fine. I'm just mad at myself for not being there to protect you Sakura...I'm really sorry."

Sakura smiled at him, and they gave each other a tiny hug. "Thanks Li-kun..."

"It's nothing..."

"So, we can go shopping now eh?"

Syaoran nodded and they started walking.

Syaoran hopped out of bed, and quickly dressed into a new green shirt that Sakura bought for him yesterday. He glanced at the clock. *Aiya! Gotta hurry...* He quickly ran out of the apartment.

"~pant~ Finally ~pant~ here!" He panted as he opened the door to the jewlery store. He walked up to the counter.

"Excuse me?"

A elderly women looked up. "What is it young man?"

"I was wondering if my rings were done. The custom ones I requested last week," Syaoran asked.

The lady smiled and nodded, "Yes, it is all done. What are they for?" She asked, handing Syaoran two small velvet boxes.

"Um...I'm asking my special someone something," He replied, burning bright red.

The women laughed, "Well, I hope she likes the rings."

He nodded and left the store quickly.

"Hey Li-kun!"

He froze and turned around. "Ohayo Tomoyo-chan..."

"Did I just see you come out of the jewelery store?" She asked, walking closer.

He nodded sheepishly. "Heh, yeah!"

"No doubt you got something for Sakura-chan!" She giggled with stars in her eyes. "That's so kawaii!!"

He turned red again. "Well, I gotta go!" And he dashed off leaving a smoke cloud behind.

*I wonder why he's in such a hurry...* Tomoyo thought to herself as she watched Syaoran disappear down the street. *Oh well...(

"Moshi moshi, Sakura speaking!"

"Hi Sakura."

Sakura gripped the phone tighter. "Hey Shaoran!!" She said happily. "What's up?!"

"Er, I just wanted to ask if you could go to the park with me?"

"The park?! At 8:45 at night?" Sakura gaped.

"Yeah...please?"

Sakura scratched her head, "Ok, whatever you say! See you at the park then!"

Syaoran hung up and took a deep breath and left his apartment with two velvet boxes.

Sakura leaned against the trunk of a Sakura tree. *Where is he?* She shivered. *It's so dark...hoe...*

"Boo!"

"HOOOOEEE!!!!!!" Sakura yelped and jumped off the ground.

Syaoran started laughing as he appeared from behind the Sakura tree. "You're still afriad of ghosts?"

"Er no...you just surprised me!" She pouted.

Syaoran chuckled but soon they were silent. They were standing, facing each other. Amber and emerald gazing into each other.

Silence....

And more silence....

"WILLLYOUMARRYME?!" Syaoran blurted out while falling on one knee.

Sakura blinked, "What?"

Syaoran turned twelve shades of red. "Will.You.Marry.Me?"

Sakura blinked one, twice, and a couple more times. "Am I dreaming?"

Syaoran smiled and reached into his pocket. Pulling out a small pink velvet box. He lifted it up towards her, and opened it.

Sakura gasped in awe. There was a ring, with a cherry blossom made of pink crystal sitting in the middle of it, it's light shining brightly.

"Will you?" He asked again. *I'm so scared...*

Sakura nodded her head wildly. "OF COURSE LI-KUN!!!!!!" She jumped onto him, almost knocking him over.

"Ah! So that's a yes?"

"Yes! I want to marry you! But so soon?"

"No, not yet. We'll wait for maybe a couple more years. But I wanted to be engaged, so you won't ever fly away from me," Syaoran said softly.

Sakura blushed as Syaoran took her hand and slipped on the engagement ring on her ring finger. He reached into his pocket and took out a velvet green box, and took out another ring with a small wolf head made of crystal too. He slipped it on his finger.

He smiled at her, and she smiled back.

They stepped closer to each other and kissed deeply, little did they know...

"KAWAII!!!"

Sakura and Syaoran jumped apart, both cherry red when Tomoyo, Touya, Yukito, Kero, and Fujitaka appeared from behind the bushes/

"I got it all on tape!" Tomoyo beamed.

Sakura turned even redder. "Tomoyo! Can't we have some privacy!"

"Hehe! Sorry, but it's to hard to resist the most kawaii moment of your life Sakura! I mean, apart from your wedding day of course!" Tomoyo giggled.

"How'd you guys know I was here anyways?" Sakura asked.

"Well, I heard you talking on the phone with the gaki. And I knew something fishy was going on," Touya said. "And I FOUND MY SISTER BEING KISSED BY THE GAKI!!!!!"

"Shut up Touya! He's my fiancé!" Sakura looked to her dad. "You do agree about our engagment, don't you dad?"

Fujitaka smiled at his daughter. "Of course. Syaoran looks like a wonderful boy for my little Sakura."

Sakura smiled at Syaoran, and he smiled back.

That smile, I will never forget
In my deepest memories
That smile is engraved

You look at me
And I look at you
Together till the end of time
That's all I want

"Wo yong yuan ai ni (I will forever love you)!" Sakura smiled and fell into his arms again.

"Me too...me too..." Syaoran smiled in satifaction. *My life is complete, with Sakura.*

*Syaoran*

We've been through so much
But nothing could stop us
The pain
The fear

Is to little
Compared to our love

If one of us shall part
Then the other will wait
For someday
Even after life

We will meet again
And say I love you

*Sakura*

I was once a shattered blossom
But you came and made me whole

No more holes
No more pain
But the reflection of your touch

I want to stay with you
That's all I want
