I DO
Yours truly Celeste is back, waiting to walk out done the aisle to stand with her Yue-kun, though don't tell him I called him that or I'll never tell you anymore stories ever again. Anyway not a lot of people reviewed but I figured I'd tell you what happened anyway, since some of you did care enough about it to take the time to review. Anyway I'm pretty sure we left off with that really cute moment between Tori and Sakura, not a bad example of the male species either. Course he's taken though and I have my eye on the tall, white and winged guardian who is most likely standing there in the church with a look of total seriousness and calm. Right-and I'm the Easter bunny lol. Anyway you didn't tune in to hear how yummy I think he is or did you cause I can talk about that for hours. Okay maybe not as Tori's giving me a strange look as I stand here drooling. Never mind then, let's get on with the show!
A hush came over the crowd and everyone turned their heads to watch one of Syaoran's many nieces and one of his nephews walk down the aisle to begin the march. The little girl, who looked a lot like Syaoran only female, happily threw sakura blossoms all over the place as she beamed at everyone, her male cousin walking stiff and formal as he carried the rings, concentration lining the poor kid's face. The costumes they were wearing were typical Chinese dress, the girl in a kimono and the boy in tradition loose pants and Mandarin collar. Following after them came Chelsea, holding her bouquet of white rosebuds and sakura blossom, beaming as she walked down the aisle. Everything was so perfect and that was what Sakura deserved Chelsea thought as she winked at her boyfriend who stood beside Li. Everything was as it should be. Chelsea was then followed by a stunning Rika who smiled shyly as she walked forward in her purple sundress, clutching the flowers tightly as she tried not to cry. This was so beautiful and she couldn't think of anyone she'd rather have waiting at the altar for Sakura then Li. As Chelsea took her place opposite a smiling Julian Melin came out in her purple dress, a huge grin on her face as she smiled at her cousin. It had taken everything she and Madison had to get the two here and now it was all paying off. Sending the obviously nervous Li a wink Melin watched Rika take her place opposite Spinner and Melin sent her a reassuring look as the girl looked close to tears. Nicki was next and she too was grinning having always known that she'd eventually be walking down the aisle with Sakura to watch her marry Li. Even in public school there had always been something about them and now they would become husband and wife, forever.
Strolling out after Nicki was Celeste who was smiling as though this was the happiest day of her life and in a way it was. Her master and mistress were getting married and she looked absolutely gorgeous in front of Yue, what more could she possible want? As Nicki moved to her spot across from Kero Madison walked in, tears silently rolling down her cheek but she didn't even bother to wipe them away. This was the day her best friend in the whole wide world married into happily ever after so of course she was crying. Moving forward she smiled at her love Eriol and then Syaoran as the wedding march sounded as she reached her spot opposite Zachary.
At the sound of the organ beginning the wedding march everyone in the room rose and turned there eyes to the archway as the bride appeared, her father on her left and her brother on the right. Both men standing proud and tall they each have a hand on her waist as they lead her forward, her hands holding her bouquet that doesn't even begin to compare with the beauty of her smile. Her shoulder length brownish red hair shines in the light coming from through the stain glass windows as she walks between them, her eyes only on her husband to be. Her wedding dress shimmers as it rustles quietly as they walk, everyone quiet as they look at the beautiful face, green eyes shining with love and happiness as two of the people she loves most lead her to the one who held her heart completely.
Sakura looked at Syaoran, her heart filled to bursting and feeling tears about to rise to the surface glanced in the direction of her closest and dearest friends in the whole world. First there was Madison, her best friend and closest confidant. Best friends since the age of ten Sakura couldn't even begin to imagine her life without Madison in it and didn't want to. Beside Syaoran was Zachary who grinned at her then gave her a huge wink, a look of pure happiness and mischief on his face. Beside Zachary was Yue and Sakura smiled at her quiet guardian who looked at her with affection though he concealed it well. He was as much a brother to her as Tori and Sakura beamed at him before turning her gaze to her Syaoran's guardian who stood opposite Yue with a happy grin. Though only a few months old Celeste had pretty much wormed her way into everyone's hearts and Sakura now couldn't imagine what it would be like without her. Sakura smiled at the wink Celeste sent her before turning her gaze to Nicki and then Melin. They'd started out as rivals and now were the best of friends, exactly how it was suppose to be. When she looked over at Kero he made a funny face at her and Sakura giggled, loving the silly guardian who'd brought her the cards because he couldn't stay awake. Eriol beside him was looking at Madison and Sakura hoped that this would push the mischievous sorcerer to ask for Madison's hand, that would be the greatest wedding gift they could give her. Beside Eriol was Spinner who was rolling his eyes at Kero's behaviour. So much like her Yue was Spinner and Sakura hoped that he would never change. Across from Spinner was Rika and then Chelsea, Sakura returned both their smiles before looking over to Julian, her first love and the other half of Yue. Oh but she adored him but know as a brother and as the person her own brother adored. He stood straight and tall with an encouraging look for her before smiling happily at Tori who didn't appear to be taking any initiative to wreak havoc. Giving Julian a thumbs up Sakura's eyes turned back to Syaoran as he left his spot to meet her, the four coming to a stop in front of the steps leading to the altar.
"You take care of my little girl." Aiden said thickly as he smiled at Syaoran before looking into his baby's green eyes. "I love you Sakura, congratulations." He said as a single tear rolled down his cheek as he leaned down to place a kiss in her cheek before moving away to sit beside Madison's mother. Watching him go Sakura called out that she loved him too and he turned for a moment to smile at her before sitting down beside Madison's mom who was smiling at Sakura through her own tears.
"You hurt her there isn't a spell known to man that will put you back together again." Tori said as he stood beside his sister with a slightly threatening loon on his face. "Be happy." He added as he turned to Sakura before she could yell at him for his comment. "Love you."
"I love you too big brother, even when you're being an annoying jerk." Sakura said as she laid a hand on his cheek, smiling up at him. Smiling back at her Tori placed his own hand over hers before withdrawing it and walking over to the seat he had beside his father.
"Well at least he didn't try to physically show me what would happen if I hurt you, of course if I did I'd let him do it too." Syaoran said with a smile before holding his hand out to her. "Ready?"
"Always." Sakura said as she took his hand and the two walked up the steps to stand in front of the priest that would marry them. When they reached the top Sakura handed her bouquet to Madison and letting go of Li's hand temporarily moved over to give Madison a hug. "I love you too, Madison." To which Madison replied the same as they hugged tightly for a moment before Sakura moved back to stand at Syaoran's side, smiling when he reached out a hand to brush away the few tears that had escaped.
Hand in hand once more the two turned towards the minister and smiled as he began the ceremony. Finally he reached the part that Sakura and Syaoran had been waiting for a very, very long time.
"I, Li Syaoran, take you Avalon Sakura, to be my wife, my partner in life and my one true love.
I will cherish our friendship and love you today, tomorrow, and forever.
I will trust you and honour you
I will laugh with you and cry with you.
I will love you faithfully
Through the best and the worst,
Through the difficult and the easy.
What may come I will always be there.
As I have given you my hand to hold
So I give you my life to keep
So help me God" Syaoran said with a loving look as he clutched her hands in his, waiting for her response. He didn't have to wait long.
"I, Avalon Sakura, take you Li Syaoran, to be my husband, my partner in life and my one true love.
I will cherish our friendship and love you today,
tomorrow, and forever
I will trust you and honour you
I will laugh with you and cry with you.
I will love you faithfully
Through the best and the worst,
Through the difficult and the easy.
What may come I will always be there.
As I have given you my hand to hold
So I give you my life to keep
So help me God." Sakura said with her eyes brimming over with tears of joy. Eyes only for each other the two continued, their voices harmonizing as one.
"Entreat me not to leave you, or to return from following after you,
For where you go I will go,
and where you stay I will stay
Your people will be my people,
and your God will be my God.
And where you die, I will die and there I will be buried.
May the Lord do with me and more if anything but death parts you from me."
"Is there anyone here who knows why these two should not be wed?" The minister asked thinking that a person would have to be crazy to want to break these two up. He had been a minister for many years and it had been a long while since a couple had come before him with such obviously binding and lasting love. When no one answered he wasn't surprised and Syaoran let out a sigh of relief that Kero and Tori had held their tongues. "In that case bring forth the rings." On cue the ring bearer made his way up and held out the pillow where the rings lay, gleaming in the sunlight. "Syaoran."
"With this ring I thee wed. Take it as a symbol of all we shall share." Syaoran said with a lump in his throat as he took the ring from his nephew and slipped it onto Sakura's ring finger to join her engagement ring. "I love you."
"With this ring I thee wed. Take it as a symbol of all we shall share." Sakura repeated back as she took the ring from the boy and slid it onto Syaoran's finger, her eyes never leaving his as she smiled blindingly. "I love you."
"Then with the power invested in me I pronounce you husband and wife, you may now kiss the bride." The minister said with a happy smile.
"We did it." Sakura said with a smile as Syaoran wrapped his arms around her waist to draw her close. "I love you more then anything else in the world and I will love you until the day I die. You will always be my number one."
"And you will always be mine, now and forever, my love." Syaoran whispered as he kissed her for the first time as his wife. Instantly there were cheering and then there was a sound of a small boom. Breaking off the two looked up to see millions of sakura blossoms appear out of nowhere like fireworks, raining down on them like snow. Both of them looking over to Eriol automatically he shrugged, not having any idea what was going on. The two looked at Kero and Celeste but they shrugged as well, completely clueless. Then Sakura looked at Yue and knew.
"Thank you." Sakura said to him with a big smile as she wrapped her arms around Syaoran's waist. "Thank you, Yue." Her guardian simply nodded his head slightly but there was a slight smile on his face that indicated he was pleased.
"Shall we, Mrs. Li?" Syaoran asked with a smile as he motioned towards the stairs.
"Let's Mr. Li." Sakura said with a laugh as she accepted her bouquet back from Madison. "I wouldn't miss this party for the world."
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh that was so-so beautiful!!!! Excuse me, I'm just a bit emotionally right now. That was just so beautiful and I'll never forgive it as long as I live. Well I got to go cause there's still a party to go to, Yue to flirt with and maybe even get on the dance floor. It could happen, today seems to be a day of miracles and wonderful beginnings. Thanks for listening to me and maybe I'll tell you more later, if you're interested. If not review anyway and may your day be as great as today.
