From Chapter 4:

An image of Eriol appeared.  "You two learn you lessooonnnnnnnn." He said his voice fading out.

"Greaaattt... mind games.  This is all your fault, Syaoran!"

"Here we go again!"

Chapter 5

Look let's just stop fighting and get through this. We'll fight later.

~~~***End Flashback***~~~

Tomoyo sighed.  Think we should at least let them out?  Syaoran probably ran out of chocolate and Sakura is probably hitting ghosts and going crazy because of Syaoran."

"Mmmm…I guess so. But I'll put them on a part of the ship."

~~~***Sakura and Syaoran***~~~

"Just a little further!" Sakura said reaching for the window above them. 

"I can't.  Jump for it!" Syaoran said struggling.

"And I trust you how?"

"JUST JUMP!"  Sakura grumbled and jumped as far as she could but before she could grab the ledge she and Syaoran disappeared and reappeared in another room.  Syaoran was still standing and Sakura was in mid air and then started falling.  They were outside.  Sakura screamed waiting to hit the deck.  She peeked her eyes opened.  Syaoran was holding her.  She smiled and thanked him and stood up.

"HEY!  There's Eriol!" Sakura said pointing at the couple. Eriol looked up.

"Oops…wrong spell."  Sakura and Syaoran ran after him. He jumped up and ran.  HE just ran and ran.  Finding himself in his room holding the door.

He snapped his fingers and locked the door. 

"You have to come out sooner or later Eriol!" Sakura said from the other side.

"Uhhhh…I'll chose later!" Eriol smirked.

"I got Tomoyo, Eriol!  If you don't come out, you never know.  I'm still single!" Syaoran said.  His eyes widened and he opened the door.  Syaoran only stood there with Sakura. 

"Hey!"

"HEY!" Syaoran grabbed him about to punch him.

"Syaoran! STOP!" Sakura said her eyes begging. 

"Fine…I'll get you later!" Syaoran said dropping him and went to his room.  Sakura shrugged and ran after him.  She opened the door and saw Syaoran on his bed. 

"Can…I come in?" she asked quietly.

"I don't care.  It's your room to." He said sitting up.

Sakura sighed and sat at the foot of his bed.  "Why are we still fighting?"

"Because you don't seem to grasp the fact that I was under a spell and it wasn't my fault that she had me under control." He said looking at her.

"But I had been gone for three years.  That's a long time.  I missed so many things.  Like school events, my birthday, Christmas and…lots of time with you." She added quietly.

Syaoran looked at her and frowned.  He hated her sad.  He gently reached over and pulled her into a hug.


"I'm sorry.  I never meant to do anything wrong.  Can you forgive me…again?"

"Hai!" she said kissing him.  He smiled.  This was a lot better.

~~~***The Next Morning (Sort of)Tomoyo and Eriol's room***~~~

Tomoyo yawned and opened her eyes, looking at her surroundings.  Eriol was still in his bed sleeping.  She smiled and stretched, getting up.  Grabbing a towel and her clothes she ran into the bathroom for a quick shower.

Eriol woke up to the sound of the shower running.  He rubbed his eyes and looked at the time.  It was almost 3:30.

"Is she crazy!" Eriol thought aloud.

"No, not really…I just thought I would get up early.  I like watching the morning sunrises!"  Tomoyo said from behind him.  He turned around and saw that she was brushing her damp hair and was wearing jeans and a blue sweater.  Actually, his sweater.

"And your wearing that because?" he asked wrapping his hands around her waist.

"Ummmm…I like it.   Besides it's comfy and really big on me! Which makes it even more comfy!" Tomoyo smiled. 

"Mmmm…it looks good on you." He said reaching in for a kiss.  She smiled and pushed him on the bed. 

"Eriol…I wanna watch the sunrise!" she said sitting beside him.

"Oh fine!" he smiled as she pulled him out the door to the main deck.  A couch was on the deck against the wall with some blankets.  He smiled.  She had this planned.  Sitting down she took a blanket and covered her with it.  He joined her covering himself with the same blanket. 

"You plan these things to much." He said looking out at the starry sky.

"Mmmm…only for you!" she smiled.  He kissed her and smiled.  He sighed and reached in his pocket.

`It's almost time…for this…'

~~~***Sakura and Syaoran's room***~~~

By the time morning rolled around Sakura and Syaoran were fast asleep in each other's arms. 

Sakura's eyes widened.  'Did we really?  No we couldn't of!'  She thought.  She ran to get a shower and got dressed.  Drying her hair she brushed it and clipped it back.  Syaoran was awake and grabbing clothes out of his dresser.  Looking at each other they blushed turning away.  Sakura sat on her bed and waited for him to come out of the washroom.  15 minutes later, he was showered, dried, and dressed.

"Good Morning." He said putting something away.

"Morning."  An awkward silence fell between them.

"Did we…"

"I think so…"


"Really…"

"Yea…"

Sakura bit her bottom lip and looked at him. 

"Let's go…worry later.  I'm starving!" Sakura said smiling and running out.  He sighed and followed her to the kitchen. 

"Eriol and Tomoyo have already eaten.  They have gone to see how much longer the cruise is and then they are swimming.  OH! I wanna swim!" Sakura said excitedly. 

"After we eat!  Hmmm…want some waffles?"

"Blueberry! Blueberry waffles!" Sakura said sitting down on a stool beside the counter.  He smiled and started making some blueberry waffles.  Once they were done, he sweatdropped as he watched Sakura make trips back and forth to the fridge.  Once she had finished her waffles she had put syrup, pickles, butter, raspberries, and peanut butter on it.  He shivered eating the last bite.

"Let's go get some towels and our other stuff and join Tomoyo and Eriol.

She nodded and raced him down to the room.

"I WON!" Sakura said happily opening the door.

"Really?" he approached her and started tickling her.

"HEY!  No fair!  Stoo—op!!!" Sakura squealed trying to wiggle away from her again boyfriend.  He smiled and looked around for his swimming shorts.  Sakura grabbed her bikini and a towel and the two quickly found the pool and saw Tomoyo and a water slide sliding downwards and Eriol was well…not there…sort of.  Tomoyo splashed into the water and disappeared underneath.

"Ahhh…Eriol the shark strikes yet again!" Syaoran smirked. 

"Go change!" Sakura said going into the ladies room.  Coming back out Tomoyo looked ready to kill Eriol as she swam around the pool splashing and diving for him.  She laughed, as she stood perfectly dry.  But not for long.  Syaoran came out and saw Sakura laughing at the scene before her and smirked.  Sneaking up behind her he pushed her into the water and watched her splash around and finally stand up. 

"OH YOU ARE SO DEAD SYAORAN!" Sakura screamed and started splashing him.

15 minutes later once Sakura and Tomoyo had gotten back at their boyfriends and they were swimming laps.  Sakura and Tomoyo were sitting at the side of the pool, dangling their feet in the water. 

"So you two have patched things up AGAIN?" Tomoyo asked watching Eriol.

"Yea…" she said sadly.

"What happened?" she said boardly.  She was going to have to stop this fighting once and for all.

"Weeeeellllll…I…this morning we woke up in each other's arms…and we think…well…were pretty sure…that we slept together and…you know…" Sakura said looking at Syaoran.

Tomoyo's eyes grew wide and she stared at Sakura.

"Well…Eriol…proposed to me…so I guess were a little equal.  What are you going to do?  The cruise is only 2 more days." she asked.

"I dunno…if the cruise is only 2 days then once we get back…wait…I live with him!  Well…you and I can go shopping and I'll buy a home pregnancy test and then we can go to your house.  We can leave Eriol and Syaoran to deal with the ship." Sakura said.  She sighed.  "I'm so stupid." She groaned frustrated and buried her head in her hands. 

"Did he pressure you or did you agree?" Tomoyo asked her.

"I agreed.  So I guess it's not that bad.  But what if he's not ready to do this.  I mean, I'm not engaged, and you are!  He's just my boyfriend.  He may not want to even marry me or he may hate me or…"

"Sakura!  Stop it!  He loves you and he'll do anything as long as you're happy.  So stop worrying!"  Sakura sighed and nodded. 

"Hey!  Let's go back in there and swim!  I'm tired of just sitting!" Tomoyo said smiling.

Once they were all done and out of the pool.  The girls raced back to change.  Sakura quickly dried off and pulled on jeans, a t-shirt and a zip up sweater. She brushed her hair out and walked out.  Tomoyo was already changed and ready.

"Ready? The boys had brought their stuff with them and are making some lunch."  Tomoyo said standing up.

Sakura nodded and followed beside Tomoyo.


"When would you tell him?" Tomoyo asked.

"I'm not sure.  Maybe the night I find out if I am." Sakura said.

They walked in to the kitchen and saw that the boys were gone.  Sandwiches were on the counter with a note.

Made a quick lunch…gone to games room.  Join us if you want.

~Syaoran and Eriol

"There's a games room?" Sakura said confused.

"This boat is a little to big for my likings." Tomoyo said. 

The two ate the sandwiches and set out to find the room. 

"I give up!" Sakura said sitting on a bench.

"Oh come on!  There's a map right here!" she said looking at it.

"Ummmm…we go straight, turn right, and go down the stairs. It's at the end of the hall." Tomoyo said.  Sakura nodded and soon the two found the games room.  The boys were playing pool.  Different other things were set up around the room.

"Hey…you two wanna join?" Eriol asked.

"Sure!" Tomoyo said grabbing a stick.  Sakura nodded and grabbed the fourth one and joined in. 

~~~***Later that Night***~~~

Sakura was slowly packing her suitcase. She left out her stuff needed for the next day and changed into her pyjamas.  She had left early after dinner.  Everyone else had gone back to games room to watch movies.  She sighed looking in the mirror and brushed her hair.  She lifted the sheets of her bed and collapsed on the bed and soon fell asleep.

Syaoran, Eriol and Tomoyo said good night to each other and walked into their rooms.  Syaoran smiled at his sleeping girlfriend.  Kissing her forehead, he packed his stuff, changed for bed and soon fell asleep.

That night, Sakura groaned and sat up.  Glancing at the clock she groaned and tried going back to sleep but it wouldn't work.  She pulled on a sweater and wandered around until she found herself in the kitchen.  She dug through the cabinets until she found some chips and poured herself some and then poured some water.  She sat on the same couch as Tomoyo and Eriol did and ate her little snack. 

"Couldn't sleep, either?" a voice said from behind.  Sakura looked behind her to see Eriol.

"No…you too?"

"Yea…I can't help but sense…but what's wrong?" he said.

"Nothing…really…"

"I know you better then that Sakura.  What's wrong?" 

"Me and Syaoran slept together and I think I'm pregnant." Sakura said hugging her knees.

Eriol nodded.  "You know…it'll all work out.  It always does.  Besides.  Syaoran loves you.  If he didn't he would've left you n that castle forever.  Of course Tomoyo and I would have to go and get you then." He said smiling. "Don't worry about it.  I'll stall Syaoran once we get home and you get tested."

She smiled.  "Thanks so much, Eriol!  And congratulations on proposing to Tomoyo!" Sakura said hugging him.

"Hey, you ARE my descendant to!  I tease Syaoran and am nice to you.  Everyone's happy!" Eriol smirked.  Sakura smiled and the two walked back to there rooms. 

By the time morning rolled around Sakura was pretty okay with it.  She smiled and woke up but quickly ran to the washroom.

"Morning sickness…defiantly pregnant."  She groaned and got a quick shower, dried her hair, got dressed and brushed her hair and did it.  She peeked out in the room.  Syaoran was waiting sitting up on the bed.

"Morning." He said.

"Morning." She replied putting some stuff in her suitcase and closed it up.  He walked in the washroom and came out 15 minutes later.  The two brought their stuff to the top deck and ate breakfast with Tomoyo and Eriol and sat on the deck.  All was silent once they reached land again.  The girls asked the guys to bring their stuff home and then they ran off. 

Syaoran sighed picking up Sakura's stuff with his.  "She's been avoiding me.  A LOT!  And she's all quiet around me."

"Maybe she's just a little shy since you guys got together again." Eriol said.  "Just give her some time."

Syaoran sighed and continued walking towards his car.

~~~***Hiirigiwaza Mansion***~~~

"SO!" Tomoyo said anxiously.  Sakura nodded and tears filled her eyes.

"AWW!  Don't cry!  You should be happy!" Tomoyo said. 

"But I'm not even getting married and I'm already pregnant and having a baby!" Sakura said crying.

Tomoyo's voice softened as she lead Sakura to a couch.  "It'll be okay.  Just tell him what happened and how you feel.  IF worse comes to worse, the you could have an abortion." Tomoyo suggested.

"NO WAY!  I can't do that!  That's way to mean!  I'm keeping the baby even if it doesn't have a father.  And…oh no…Touya's going to kill Syaoran!  I hate my life!" Sakura wailed.  Tomoyo sighed. 

"Let's get you home…Syaoran might be wondering where you are and what's wrong." Tomoyo said getting up and leading Sakura to the door.  Eriol was just getting out of the car.

"Oh hey Sakura.  Syaoran headed home.  You wanna ride?"

"No it's okay.  We're going to walk." Tomoyo said. 

Once they got at Sakura's apartment and Tomoyo and Sakura were both soaked from then rain.  Tomoyo wished Sakura luck and called for Eriol to come and pick her up.  Sakura took a deep breath and walked inside.  Syaoran was in the kitchen making dinner.  Hearing the door close he walked out to see Sakura soaked and her tearstained face.

"What happened?  Are you okay!" he said giving her a hug.  She nodded and he shook his head.  HE brought out some of his clothes to change into.

"Your stuff isn't unpacked yet, so here.  Dry off and get out of those clothes. Dinner will be ready in 15 minutes." He said smiling.  She smiled and took the clothes thankfully and ran off to get dressed.

He mumbled and walked into the kitchen and finished the dinner.  Setting the food on the table, Sakura came in wearing her favourite green sweater that belonged to Syaoran and baggy sweatpants.  Her face was still tearstained.

"What's wrong.  Why are you crying so much?" he asked wiping the tears of her face leading her to the table.

"Can I tell you later…like after dinner?"

"Sure."  They ate dinner in silence and walked into the living room and sat down.

She took a deep breath and sat at the other end of the couch and in a quiet voice she mumbled something.

"Don't be quiet.  Don't worry.  I won't be mad whatever it is.   Just try and tell me." He said reassuringly. 

She nodded and still quiet she said, "I'm pregnant."

He stayed quiet and Sakura sniffed and started crying again.  Instead of the yelling she expected she got a hug.

"I'm not mad, Sakura.  I love you.  And I really meant to ask you this earlier, but, "he said getting down on one knee, "Will you marry me, Sakura?" he asked.

She smiled and threw her arms around his neck.

"HAI!!!!" she screamed hugging him.  He smiled and kissed her.  "Are you really sure your not mad?" she asked.

"No!  For the last time, of course not!" Sakura smiled and sniffed.

"When can we tell my dad and Touya?"  Syaoran's eyes grew wide and he fainted.

"Uhhhh….I guess…later…a lot later!" Sakura said giggling struggling to pick him up off the ground.
