Epilogue: Always a Happy Ending

Six long years has passed since the fateful day that Syaoran and Sakura confessed their love for one another. They lived happily together, always cherishing every moment they spent as a married couple. The first year went smoothly, and not one fight erupted between them, which was a good, yet weird sign. Which married couple didn't fight every now and then? Neither of them could think of any. All they wanted to do was keep their fighting record as a married couple clean.

During their first year of marriage, basically still newlyweds; Syaoran and Sakura were blessed with wonderful news that a baby was on the way. Everyone in the castle, village, and kingdom were so joyful that they held a parade to celebrate the coming of their first child. Both couples thought that their happiness would never, ever end. Not in this lifetime, at least.

After a full nine months, Syaoran and Sakura were not pleased to see that the baby still had not come. A week had passed, and still, no baby. Sakura became scared that it would never come, but Syaoran, being the caring, loving husband he was, came to her rescue and saved her before she officially went insane with impatience. But one fateful evening, a rainstorm had engulfed the entire kingdom. Not even Sakura's mother, who absolutely loved the rain, would dare go outside.

That was when Sakura began to feel the contactions. Short waves of pain shot through her stomach. All the cramps she missed out on for nine months came flooding back to her stomach, causing her to cry out loud in her sleep. Her screaming had wakened Syaoran up, and he had no idea what was wrong with her. He knew that Sakura's pain had something to do with the baby, but he couldn't tell if it had to do with the process before birth, or if it had to do WITH the birth. They could both remember that night so clearly.

"Syaoran!" Sakura had cried, sweat pouring down her face, "The baby! It's coming! It's coming!"

Syaoran panicked. He didn't know what to do. He had never been trained to give birth to a pregnant woman! How was he supposed to help with the birth of his own son? He had to call someone - quickly. But he couldn't possibly leave Sakura in the castle by herself while he went to get the doctor. The doctor was probably home, anyway. The rainstorm caused everyone to flee from work, and if he did, it would've just been a waste of time, and for all he knew, Sakura could have had the baby without him!

"How do you know?" Syaoran asked, lighting a few candles while he heard the breath of his wife turning into short, quick gasps. It was as if she couldn't breathe, and she was fighting for her life to get some air. He walked over to her and spread her legs, and saw that her uturus was at least four centimetres wide.

"I just know!" Sakura replied, tears forming in her eyes, "Syaoran...Syaoran, it hurts! Please help me!" she cried, squeezing his hand with all her might. She did not want the birth of her child to be in this room. She wanted it with her husband, her father, her mother in law, and everyone else she loved. But how could that be possible?

Hours and hours passed and Sakura's uturus was still not wide enough for the baby to come out. All Syaoran could do was comfort her, and assure her that in just a few more hours, their lives would be changed for the better because of the tiny bundle of joy that she would be holding if she was just a little more patient. It seemed to be working, because Sakura wasn't crying out loud so much. Syaoran couldn't bare to see his wife crying so hard, and with tiny beads of sweat forming at the top of her forehead.

Sakura could just read Syaoran's thoughts. She knew that he thought she wasn't in as much pain. But she was. More pain than she has ever been in, in her entire life. But she wouldn't let it show. She knew that Syaoran hated seeing her in this state, so she kept her feelings inside her, hoping to create a scene showing that she was absolutely fine, and that Syaoran's words helped her. Although they did, they didn't seem to take the pain away. But she knew it would all be worth it after the birth of her baby. And she knew it was, when the rain suddenly stopped, and her uturus became big enough for the baby to come out.

She gave birth to a beautiful, handsome baby boy with amber eyes, just like his daddy. Tiny, black hairs sprouted from the top of his head, and in time, they would grow to become auburn, to match the beautiful head of his proud mother's. The proud mother that sat on the bed, still heaving as if she had just been underwater for a lifetime. Syaoran cut the baby's umbilical cord, and held him for a while. Happily, he gave him to Sakura to hold, and she embraced him with all the warmth she could muster up in the state she was in.

She would love him with all her heart, with the same love she knew her mother had nurtured her with. She would raise him to be a strong, loving gentleman with the help of his caring father. Who knew that in just six years he would become a hyper six-year-old, just as active as Syaoran was when he was his age. He was Taichi Li. The son of the happiest couple in the world.

Sakura smiled as her baby squirmed in her arms. She had a beautiful son, a loving husband, a great family, and awesome friends. What more could she want? Her fighting record with Syaoran was still clean, and she hoped that it still would be when her baby grew up. But every couple has it's ups and downs. Even their relationship couldn't last without at least one fight...

The day started out bright, and everyone child in the kingdom seemed to be relishing the beautiful spring as much as they possibly could. The flowers sprouted from their original spots, finally breathing a bit of air after the cold winter. They swayed with the breeze, letting their petals fly along with it, landing on the top of people's heads.

Unfortunately, the day did not reflect upon the moods of the people in the castle. It was not happy, or comfortable just like the weather. It was angry, and full of confusion. The servants could barely believe their ears. All the screaming and all the insults! What on earth had gotten into the happiest couple in the world? They'd never heard such a racket since seven years ago, when Sakura and Syaoran were not married, but careless seventeen year olds.

Sakura glared at her husband as he glared back at her. She glowered with anger as she walked towards him in an angry fashion. Her arms were folded across her chest, just like always when she got into an argument with Syaoran. But she hadn't done that since seven years ago. It was something both she and Syaoran were surprised to find her doing.

"We will not," Sakura said calmly, her voice threatening to raise.

"Who said that this was all up to you?" Syaoran asked.

"I will not betroth Tai!" she replied, her voice almost over the limit.

Syaoran walked up to his wife with a cautious look on his face, and brought a hand up to her mouth. She removed it harshly, glowering at him. "Be quiet!" he hissed, looking out the open window which would display the beautiful view of the gardens below them, "Tai might hear you!" he warned, taking a few paces back.

"I don't care!" Sakura began once more, beginning to pace back and forth, "I hope he hears me! I hope he hears that his idiot of a father is trying to betroth him to that Clarissa girl! You know how he feels about her! They're just friends! Why on earth would he want to marry her? And why on earth would you discuss this with her parents behind my back?"

"Sakura," Syaoran replied, a hopeless look on his face, "I didn't mean to talk about it behind your back! You weren't there, that's all! You were on that trip remember? So I just talked about it with them! We haven't agreed or anything...We're just thinking of betrothing them!" Sakura could tell he was now on the defensive.

"Syaoran Li! Do you remember when we found out we were betrothed? Do you remember how we hated each other and yet our parents still wanted us married? Do you remember how betrayed we felt? How we felt as though they were controlling our lives? I will bet you this entire kingdom that, that is how Tai will feel when he finds out!"

"You don't know that for sure!"

"I don't, do I?" Sakura asked, beginning to walk out the door, "Why don't we ask him right now? He's only in the gardens. Why don't we ask him whether or not he wants to marry Clarissa!" and she opened the door. Her hold on the knob was suddenly taken away when Syaoran sprinted towards her.

"He doesn't know what he wants! He's six-years-old!" and he continued, "Sakura, don't you remember though? I've loved you for so long, but I mistook that feeling for hate. All we really needed was a push in the right direction from our parents! I'm just thinking that what Tai needs is a shove in the right direction!"

"Doesn't know what he wants?" Sakura repeated, as if not hearing the second part in his sentence, "I knew what I wanted when I was his age! I knew for sure that I didn't want to marry you when I was older - "

" - But you did anyway!" Syaoran interrupted.

Silence filled the room. The tension in the room was so thick that it could've suffocated the both of them. Slowly, Sakura walked passed Syaoran towards the balcony doors and closed and locked them. She closed the curtains, so that the room was now slightly dark, and walked up to Syaoran. She looked at him straight in the eye. He could tell that their argument was not over.

"I will not betroth our son," Sakura said dangerously, "Now, I am going to go out. I can't stand being in the same room with you right now. If you follow me, I'll only be even angrier, so you better not. I will speak with you later tonight if I'm in a better mood, which you better hope I am." and she left the room, her footsteps echoing throughout the halls.

Syaoran sighed and held the palms of his hands against his temples. He'd really done it this time.

Sakura sat in the stables, grooming one of the horses. It wasn't her stable of course, but the family that lived there always welcomed her to do whatever she pleased. After all, she was a very good friend to them, and she carried the title of Queen of China with her. It was something she thought of as an advantage, as most people let her do whatever she wanted because of that.

One of the horses neighed, and Sakura giggled. She stopped just as soon as it came out however, realizing that it wasn't a very good moment to be laughing. She sighed and let her head rest on the horses soft mane. She heard footsteps entering, but she did not acknowledge whoever's presence.

"Go away," Sakura said gloomily. She heard a giggle, and knew immediately who it was. "Heart, please don't laugh at me," she said. She turned around and saw before her a ten-year-old Heart, almost grown up and very mature for her age. Her hair had grown to elbow length, but always wore a pretty pink headband Sakura gave her to keep the hair from flying into her face when riding the horses.

"I can't help it, Sakura," Heart replied, walking towards her and stopping to lay her had on Sakura's shoulder. "So, gossip around the village is that you and Syaoran are in a fight. First fight ever, Sakura. How does it feel?" she asked, kind of curious, and kind of disappointed that the happiest couple in the world was having an arguement.

"Heart, come on. I'm really not in the mood," Sakura replied, but was trying to hold back a smile. Heart always seemed to cheer her up.

"Oh, Sakura," Heart began, stroking Sakura's hair, "I'm sorry. What was the fight about? I hope it isn't anything serious,"

"Well..." Sakura droned, "Do you think that betrothing our son is something serious?"

She heard Heart gasp. "No! Betroth Tai? You can't be serious." Sakura nodded. "Sakura, I really don't know what to think. Tai is such a free spirit. Even at his age I'm almost positive that he can make his own choices," and she watched as Sakura gave a kind of, "I knew I was right," kind of look. But then she switched point of views. "But then again, he's just so active he doesn't have time to think about who he's going to marry - and he shouldn't at his age...It's just that...Well, maybe he just needs a tiny push in the right direction,"

A push in the right direction...That's what Syaoran had said. Maybe he was right after all.

"Hey, Heart?" Sakura asked, looking up at Heart with a caring face, "Do you ever regret me and Syaoran not adopting you?"

Heart smiled. "No. The Morano's are a good family, and besides, they did get to me first, and they let me visit you everyday, don't they?" and she earned a giggle from Sakura.

Sakura looked out the window and they stayed in silence for a few minutes. They were so deep into conversation that she didn't even notice the weather change. It was raining lightly, yet hard at the same time. Both of them should've noticed since the water was beginning to reach into the cabin, splattering onto both of their faces. Sakura giggled again. A lot of children, and probably Tai were...dancing in the rain.

That's when it hit her. She sprinted out of the cabin as fast as she could, out onto an empty street where no kids were dancing at all. She flung out her arms and spun around in circles. She fell over lots of times, but she always just got up, and continued doing so again. She could hear Heart yelling at her with a big black overcoat on top of her head, screaming for her to get inside before she got terribly sick. She couldn't help but realize how she and Syaoran were so much alike.

"I'm not coming back inside!" Sakura hollered, as the rain splattered everywhere on her. But then she knew she had had enough. The reason she had come out in the rain was because she wanted to accomplish something, and well - mission accomplished.

"Bye, Heart!" Sakura screamed, as she ran into the direction of the castle. She needed to find Syaoran.

Syaoran sighed as he paced the bedroom. He had made such an ass out of himself, wanting to betroth Tai. He knew that he was just trying to do what he thought was best for him, but in the end, he had to do what both him and Sakur agreed on, even if it was what he didn't want for Tai. But he just had to figure that out now, didn't he? He couldn't have figured that out when Sakura was trying to prove a point to him! Now he was feeling absolutely terrible.

"I'm sorry, Sakura," Syaoran practiced, for when she got back home, "I'm so sorry. I was only thinking of myself, and for Tai, and I didn't even think about what you wanted too! I won't betroth Tai either. Not unless you agree with me. Whatever decision we make - it's together. I'm so, so sorry," he finally finished.

Suddenly, he heard the door creak open. "Do you mean it?" he heard. He spun around, and found Sakura, dripping wet, standing before him in the doorway. She was smiling, and obviously out of breath. He could tell that she had ran here from wherever she was. He threw his arms around here, not caring about his clothes, or his body temperature. All he wanted to do was get his apology through to his wife.

"Yes, Sakura," he replied, kissing her everywhere, "I meant it. Every word of it. I'm so, so sorry," he said. He looked Sakura in the eye, and noticed a twinkle in them, which he hadn't seen since they went to the beach seven years ago. "Sakura...you're absolutely soaked," he said, as if just noticing her current state. Sakura laughed.

"Yeah, I am, aren't I?" she said, "guess what I did?" and when Syaoran gave no reply, she continued, "I danced in the rain. I was so angry at you that I...I kind of copied my mother. Remember? I told you at the beach a few years ago that - "

" - Whenever your mom got mad at your dad she would just run out into the rain, and remember why she loved him so much," he interrupted, finishing her sentence for her. Sakura smiled, and nodded her head. He kissed her forehead, and suddenly heard a voice from before them. They both turned their heads, and noticed their little boy, standing in the doorway where Sakura had been standing just minutes before.

"Gross!" he said, covering his eyes, "I don't want to see you guys doing that!"

Sakura unwound her arms from Syaoran's waist and bent down low, and gestured for her son to come into her arms. Willingly, he jumped into them and only made her even wet than she already was. It was obvious that he was dancing in the rain too. "Mummy!" he began, pointing to all his wet clothes, "I went out in the rain!"

Sakura laughed. "I notice, sweetheart," and she looked back and forth from her husband to Tai. "Hey, you two? I kind of have some important news, so I'm going to need both of your ears, okay?" Tai, and even Syaoran looked surprised.

"Alright, sweetie..." Syaoran said cautiously, "What is it?"

"Well," Sakura began, walking towards the bed, and lying down on it with Tai in her arms. Syaoran lay beside her, wrapping an arm around her neck, "Tai, sweetheart, you know that Daddy and I love you very much, and if you ever had another brother or a sister we would both love you very equally, right?" Sakura asked. She didn't need to go on. The minute she said that sentence, both boys knew exactly what she was going to say.

"Another one is on the way?" Syaoran asked excitedly. Sakura nodded. "Oh my goodness!" was all he could say. Tai was smiling so bright he could seriously give the sun a run for its money. He was clapping his hands together furiously, and crying out in happiness. He was looking forward to a new baby...whatever it was going to be. All he knew was that he was going to be a big brother.

"Mummy, mummy!" He said all giddy in her arms, "I think you and Daddy should read a story to both me and the baby! I know it will be listening!"

"You think we should?" Syaoran asked. Tai nodded vigorously. "Well," Syaoran began, "Once upon a time..."

"Wait!" Tai interrupted, "Aren't you going to get a story book?"

"No," Syaoran replied, "Mummy and I know this one off by heart. You don't mind, do you son?"

"Nope," Tai replied, "Just as long as it has a happy ending for the baby,"

Syaoran looked from his wife to his son. The corners of his mouth pointed upwards into a sweet smile. "Don't worry," he whispered, "It does,"
