KanbiAme: Hi. I've entered a deep depression. The guy I likes has a girlfriend. And all the other cute guys are gay. It's true too. It's sad. And I keep running into my ex-boyfriend Kyle. It's sad. He won't even talk to me. But then again it's been 2 years. Anyway, on with the story. Hope you enjoy..
I DON'T OWN CCS. I do however own that really cute car out in the drive way. And that pink backpack at my feet full of Spanish homework that I also own..

Sakura awoke the next day to the sound of pouring rain hitting the window. She looked down, noticing she was wearing the shirt Syaoran had worn the previous day and that his head was using her stomach as a pillow. The bed wasn't exactly orderly as it usually would have been, and they weren't exactly laying on it correctly. She reached down and played with Syaoran's hair. He slowly opened his eyes, "Ohayo." He said smiling.
"Ohayo love." She smiled back. Suddenly the smile was erased.
"Sakura? What's wrong, love?" he asked sitting up and moving closer to her.
"Today is Kim's funeral. I almost forgot. I had so much fun yesterday..I forgot her..." tears threatened her eyes.
"Sakura, it's OK. Don't cry. Please." He said taking her into his arms.
"But, I had fun."
"That's OK, she wouldn't want you to stop being happy. That's part of who you are. And why everyone loves you. Cuz you're always cheerful. So please, don't be sad."
She avoided his gaze. She decided to fake it. "yeah. You're right. Move on, ne?"
"Now you're getting it." He said letting her go. "I gotta go shower." He stood up and waked towards the door. He turned around and saw her still sad expression. "Sakura, please smile hun?" he pleaded. Her expression didn't change. "OK, you give me no choice." He walked back towards the bed and picked her up.
"AHHH! Syaoran? What are you doing?" she asked as he carried her out of the room.
"I don't like seeing you sad. It breaks my hear. So I'm taking you with me." He replied.
"Syaoran? To shower?"
"Why not? It's this or a tickle attack." He answered slyly. He set her down in the bathroom. "So? What'll it be? You cheer up, or, I make you." He got his hands into a good tickling position.
"It's OK to be a little sad? Even to cry?" she asked innocently.
"Yes. But it's also OK to have fun and be happy. Kim wouldn't want you to break my heart. And every time I see you frown or cry it does. So will you?"
A few seconds of silence passed until she smiled and asked, "Bath or shower?" she reached for the knob to the water.
He smiled back, "Which ever you want." "OK then, bath." She went over to the cabinet and took out the bubble bath.
-About 30 minutes later, outside 'Syaoran's' Apartment-
"So she never answered her phone?" Eriol asked walking up the stairs to his best friend's apartment.
"Yea, and I called, like, 100 times. I don't know where she could be. I'm worried. Could she be here with Syaoran?" Tomoyo asked her boyfriend.
"She could be. I'm not sure though. She was pretty upset. And Syaoran wasn't answering his phone either. I hope that where ever they are, they are together."
"Yeah." They stopped outside Syaoran's door, they heard yelling from inside.
-Inside, about 3 minutes earlier-
The two fiancees (A/N: eh? Is there such a thing? O well..Don't care) had gotten out of the tub and were drying off. Sakura had just gotten into her robe when she got an evil idea. Syaoran was standing there, facing the mirror brushing his teeth, wrapped in a mere towel. Sakura took here wet towel, twirled it around a few times and 'SMACK' hit Syaoran right on the butt. He spit out all the tooth paste in his mouth and said, "Oh, you're gonna get it for that." He quickly rinsed out his mouth with water, while Sakura tried to find away out. He, however, was blocking her only exit. He turned to her, and was about ready to catch her in his arms when she ducked and got out the door. "Come back here!" Syaoran yelled chasing after her into the living room. He chased her all around the apartment, when he finally caught her in the living room. He quickly pinned her to the floor. "Now you can feel my wrath." He said before he started tickling her.
"Syaoran! No! Syaoran! Stop!!!" Sakura tried to yell in-between laughs and giggles. He didn't stop though and she continued yelling until suddenly, someone burst in the door.
Syaoran and Sakura looked up to see their intruders, only to find their 2 best friends. And they were staring back with strange looks. That's when they realized that Syaoran was on top of Sakura, only wearing a towel and a robe. The both blushed furiously and yelled, "What are you doing here?"
"Go get dressed, then we'll talk!" Eriol shouted. He had turned his back about 5 seconds after he realized the situation.
"Hai." Both scrambled to their feet and ran out of the room. When they reached their room Sakura began giggling.
"I'm glad to see you giggling again, but that was NOT funny. That was just plain embarrassing." Syaoran said as he dressed in a dark green/black button up shirt and black pants.
"You should have seen your face! It was so funny! I wish I had my camera!" Sakura said, dressing in a short black skirt and black tank top.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah." He turned around to see her. "You going to the funeral as the sexiest person on earth or what?" he asked pulling her into his arms.
"No. This is just for you. I plan to add a jacket for everyone else's sake."
"Good." He said pulling her into a kiss.
"Good?" she asked after the kiss was broken. "Why?"
"Cuz I don't want to share you!" he said.
"A bit selfish aren't we?"
"Don't care." He was about to kiss her again when there was a knock at the door.
"You guys done? At this rate we'll be late!" Eriol said from the other side.
The two lovers looked at each other and sighed. It would have to wait till later. "Hai." They replied and opened the door. That's when they heard it. Faint sobs coming from the living room.
"Why is Tomoyo crying?" Sakura asked as they walked back into the living room.
"She forgot her camera." Eriol whispered. Syaoran sweatdropped.
Sakura sat next to her best friend. "It's OK Tomoyo, there'll be more times! Trust me!"
"But it's not everyday that you stay here and shower with Syaoran." She said.
"Yes it is." Sakura said, quickly covering her mouth. Everyone looked at her.
"What she means is," Syaoran started, "she stays here every night. Not that we shower together everyday."
"You stay here every night?" Tomoyo asked evilly.
"Hai." Sakura said hesitantly. "I moved in with Syaoran." She smiled at him and he smiled back.
"AND WHY EXACTLY DID YOU NOT TELL ME?!?!?" Tomoyo started yelling, "DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW WORRIED WE WERE?!?! HELL, I WOULDN'T EVEN KNOW YOU WERE ENGAGED IF SYAORAN HADN'T TOLD ME FIRST!"
Sakura bowed her head. Now she felt really bad. Tears welled up in her eyes. She hadn't confided anything in her best friend lately. Eriol tried to calm Tomoyo down. Sakura didn't hear any of it. She just stood up and ran to the bedroom. Syaoran looked at Eriol, sighed, and chased after his beloved.
He found Sakura, face down on the bed. Sobbing quietly. He walked over and rubbed her back until she had calmed down. She looked up at him. "Hey beautiful." He whispered.
"Syaoran! I can't do anything right!" she said as she threw herself into his arms. "Syaoran, Oh Syaoran!"
"Sakura? Can I talk to you?" Tomoyo asked from the door. Sakura nodded yes, as Syaoran let her go and followed Eriol out of the room. Tomoyo sat next to Sakura on the bed. "Sakura, forgive me for that. I sometimes don't realize what I'm doing lately. I didn't think the effects would kick in so soon."
"Tomoyo? What are you talking about?"
"Sakura, we weren't going to tell anyone, just yet. But I hurt you. And I guess I can't hide it too much longer anyway. So I need to explain." Sakura looked at her, still confused. "Mood swings, Sakura, I'm going to have a baby."
"T..Tomoyo! That's so wonderful!" Sakura said hugging her best friend. "You can bite my head off whenever you want! But one question?" Tomoyo nodded. "Why not tell anyone? And how long have you been hiding?"
"That's 2 questions." The girls giggled, "Well, not tell anyone because we're not married yet. It's just not proper. And how long..Luckily I've been able to hide it for 3 months. But I can't anymore." She said putting a hand on her stomach.
"3 months! That's amazing! Hiding something like that for that long!" Suddenly they heard a loud 'THUMP'. Both girls got up and went into the living room to find Eriol fanning Syaoran who was on the floor. "Did he pass out?" Sakura asked not really needing an answer. "Silly boy." Eriol stood up as Sakura kneeled next to Syaoran. "I know how to wake him up." She leaned down and kissed him on the lips. A few seconds later she felt him kissing back, he was about to pull her down closer to deepen it, but she pulled away, whispering, "Save that for later. We have company remember?"
-An hour or so later-At the cemetery-
Everyone was wearing black. The heavy rain had lightened to a soft warm shower. It blended well with the tears rolling down the teens' faces. They said their prayers and good-byes to their friend 2 by 2. Dimitri and Jacki went first. Both were crying non-stop. Kim had been their best friend ever since she came here. Next up was Tomoyo and Eriol. They paid their respect to the girl they only halfway knew. Then went Syaoran and Sakura. Sakura laid a white rose on top of the casket. She whispered goodbye and Syaoran led her down to the car. He had an uneasy feeling. He felt the aura, but he was nowhere in sight. They were followed by Naoko and Xander, Rika and Daemeon, Takashi and Chiharu, and the rest of Kim's friends and family.
Sakura and Syaoran sat in his car, waiting for Eriol and Tomoyo to finish talking to Jacki and Dimitri. Sakura was still crying. "Sakura, it's OK, don't cry. Goodbye is not forever. Especially for you 2." Syaoran said.
"What do you mean?"
"Well, you said that Kim was an angel, ne?" Sakura nodded. "Well, you're an angel too. When it's your time, you'll meet her again in heaven. In a place 10 times better than here. We'll all see her again."
Sakura thought for a few seconds. "You're right Syaoran. Goodbye is not forever." She gave him a full genuine smile. They then followed Tomoyo and Eriol to Eriol's house to spend some much needed time with their best friends.
