Chapter Nineteen (2ed half)

:--------------------------------:

A loud scream was heard, and a plop landed on the floor. Sakura winced from being pushed towards the floor. She turned her head and noticed Eriol clutching onto his shoulder. Ignoring the pain she slowly pushed herself towards him, "Why'd you do it?" she asked him softly. Eriol grinned, "Because I told you I would never let you get hurt." Tears welled up in her eyes, "I'm not worth it Eriol."

Eriol touched her cheek with the bloody hand he was using to stop the blood, "You're worth it Sakura. I never knew what I had until you were gone. And my stubbornness stopped me from saying sorry. God Sakura for all the things I'm done, I'm sorry." She ignored the tears that fell from her face, she held onto Eriol tightly scared that if she let go he would leave her.

Yue

They were all in front of the emergency room waiting to see if Eriol was okay. Sakura laid her head on Kaori's shoulder, "He'll be alright, right?" Kaori held onto her friend, "He'll be fine, Eriol's a strong man, and I'm pretty sure it didn't hit anything vital."

Sakura nodded her head, 'Please Kami-san let Eriol live. I need to tell him how I feel,' tears continued to fall as she stared at the doors hoping it would open. From a distance Syaoran watched Sakura, he turned away. He could tell she was worried, and he didn't know what to say for his actions anymore. He failed to protect her so many times, and it was because of him she was hurt. It was because of him Eriol was hurt. A soft hand touched his shoulder, he turned to see his friend, "Hey man it isn't your fault. You should go talk to her."

Syaoran nodded and slowly walked towards Sakura, "Hey…" he said softly. Sakura looked up teary-eyed from all the tears, "Hey…" she replied. "Can we talk?" Syaoran asked her his voice pleading. Sakura looked towards the door again thinking, she nodded her head and turned to Kaori, "If you hear anything tell me." Kaori nodded and let go of her friend. The two walked slowly towards the gardens in the hospital. They sat on a bench in silence.

"So…" Sakura said trying to start a conversation. Syaoran looked at her, "Do you still love me?" he asked her straight up. Sakura looked away, "I don't know anymore." Syaoran nodded, "Because of Eriol?" "He was my first love," Sakura answered softly, "It's not something I can easily forget."

Syaoran touched her hand gently, "Whoever you choose I'll support your decision." Sakura smiled a small smile, "Thank you Syaoran, I'll never forget the time we spent together." Syaoran smiled sadly, "I think we should head back." Sakura nodded and they both walked back to the others.

Everyone was crowded around the doors, Sakura quickly started to run wanting to know what was happening. Yue walked out with a large smile on his face, "He's going to be alright, the bullet didn't hit anything vital, he'll be awake later tonight."

Everyone sighed grateful that he was alright. Yue looked towards Sakura, "Only family members are allowed to see him." Sakura smiled and slowly followed the nurses that were pushing his bed into a room. Yue turned to walk away when Syaoran stopped him, "How's Kenji?" Yue smiled softly, "He's at a babysitter's, you may pick him up if you like." Syaoran nodded and looked at his mother, "You want to go see your grandson?" Yelan nodded, "I'm so sorry Syaoran." Syaoran just ignored her and walked towards the limo that was waiting for him.

Eriol

Sakura watched as he slept peacefully. She smiled softly glad that he was okay, brushing the hairs off his face softly she thought of all the times they spent together.

Flashback

­:--------------------------------:

"Eli!" Sakura screamed running around the garden. She continued to run through the rose bushes when she tripped and a thorn pierced her skin. "Waaaaa!" she cried in pain. A 12 year old Eriol came running out his hair blowing in the wind, "Kura!" he yelled. Sakura looked at him teary-eyed, "I have a boo boo." Eriol laughed, "Aww, it's okay Kura I'll kiss it better."

Sakura laughed as he bent down to kiss her knee. When Eriol looked back up at her he noticed she was blushing intensely. "Arigatou," she said softly. Eriol looked at her with worried eyes, "Does it still hurt?" Sakura shook her head still blushing. Eriol touched her shoulder, "That's good, because you're it!" Eriol ran off laughing as Sakura growled, "I'll get you Eli!"

End of Flashback

:--------------------------------:

She held onto Eriol's hand and smiled down at his serene face, "At least you're okay," she said softly and slowly closed her eyes for sleep to take over her.

Eriol opened his eyes and looked down and saw a head of auburn hair. Immediately one woman came to his mind, "Sakura…" he mumbled softly. The woman slowly stirred at looked at him smiling, "You're awake." Eriol nodded, "So I am." Suddenly she let go of his hand and wrapped her arms around him, "You had me so scared, and never ever do that again!"

Eriol chuckled, "You were scared? You know nothing could every hurt me. And plus I have to protect my little sister." Sakura smacked him on the arm, "Nothing could ever hurt you? You could have died," Sakura exclaimed and than looked away, "And just a little sister?" Eriol looked at her, "A little sister…" he said drifting off. Sakura nodded her head, "Promise you'll always be there for me," she said holing her pinkie out.

Eriol hooked his pinkie with hers, "Pinkie promise." Sakura smiled, "I think I'm going to go back to Tomoeda." Eriol nodded, "What about Kenji?" Sakura sighed, "Well since as Yelan knows about the future King, he has to stay in Hong Kong." Eriol looked at her questionably, "Aren't you going to stay than? With Syaoran and your son." Sakura shook her head, "I need some time alone."

Eriol touched her shoulder gently, "Want to talk about it." Sakura shook her head, "No, I'm fine, really. I just, I can't stay with Syaoran right now, our relationship I… don't know where we are, and what we are. I can't trust him anymore and I don't know I just need time." Eriol nodded, "Are you planning to come back to Hong Kong?" Sakura shook her head again, "Not unless it's visiting Kenji." Eriol looked at her sadly, "What about him though? Will he be able to accept you leaving?" Sakura smiled sadly, "I think so, and he already loves Syaoran. He'll be fine, and I think daddy's going to stay with them."

Eriol stared at her, "Is there something you aren't telling me? Because if anyone hurts you I'm always here to protect you." Sakura held the tears in her eyes, "Like a brother would?" she asked sadly. Eriol nodded, "Like a brother would." Sakura smiled and walked towards the door, "I'm leaving tonight, please don't tell anyone. I'll call them once I'm gone. I really need this time alone."

Eriol nodded, "Take care." Sakura just nodded her head and walked out. He laid back down on his pure white bed hoping he had done the right thing.

Sakura

She looked out the airplane window and truly smiled, she knew deep inside this was the right thing. She couldn't return the love Syaoran had for her, not anymore her heart no longer belonged to him. Even though her heart ached not to leave, to go tell the world who she truly love she couldn't bare the thought of losing that person dear to her.

But that smile never left her face, she knew what she had to do.

Eriol

He stared up at the sky and watched as the star twinkled brightly, he ran his hand through his dark blue hair, he hoped Sakura would be safe.

Epilogue

:--------------------------------:

Sakura

A few months had past and she lived happily in her old home. She had called her father right when she landed and told him where she was. Afterwards she called Syaoran and explained to him that she needed some time alone to gather her thoughts and that she would return in time to celebrate Kenji's birthday. Syaoran seemed sadden by the fact that she had just left but he respected her decision.

Eriol had also returned back to Tomoeda once he was healed but Sakura always made sure to avoid him. She didn't know how to act when she was with him, as a sister, as a friend, or as a lover? Deciding to just let fate go its path she lived life happily.

One day while she was walking through Penguin Park she smiled at the memories it held. The old woman that told her about her father was also there, almost like she was waiting for her. "That man isn't with you this time," she commented. Sakura nodded her head, "We're no longer together." The old woman pointed to her hand, "Than what's that ring for?"

Sakura looked down at her hand; it was the blue diamond crystal that Eriol had given her. That day when she went back in her old room she found it on the dresser, her heart had told her that day to take back the ring so she did. "From an old friend," Sakura said softly. The old woman laughed, "Just a friend?" Sakura looked off towards a distance, "I'm not sure what he is. I know I love him; I've loved him since I was young. But I don't know how he feels about me."

No one made a sound until the old woman cleared her throat. Sakura turned and smiled at her, "Yes?" The old woman smiled back, "Just follow your heart, and remember true love only comes around once. Don't sit there and let it go past, you never know until you try." With that the woman got up and left Sakura to think about her words.

Sakura continued to gaze down at the ring, her mind swirling wondering what to do. In the end she stood up and smiled brightly, she knew what to do.

Eriol

He stood by the doorway as he watched Yukito teach the girls to dance. Never in his life had he felt so hollow. Although he knew Sakura was just 20 minutes away he was never able to visit her. He was scared, scared of rejection. He shuddered at the though of her loving another man, but he knew it was his fault. He had his chance before and just ruined it. Slowly he walked out of the room mindlessly.

His feet stopped in front of a gold door. He gripped the knob and slowly turned it. Everything in the room was gone now except for the furniture. He walked towards the cherry wood desk that was nicely painted gold. He wiped the dust off feeling every inch of the desk. He smiled at the memories he had with the woman he truly loved. Noticing something missing he looked around, over and under every object.

After hours of trying to find the object and to no avail he gave up, maybe they just weren't meant to be. He laid on the bed ready for sleep to overcome him when he noticed the door opening. He got up and watched as an angel walked in. She had long bouncy auburn curls and the brightest emerald eyes. A soft smile on her lips, and her eyes seemed to twinkle brightly. She was wearing a long jean skirt and a pink t-shirt. Slowly she walked towards him clenching her hands in fear.

"Hey…" she said softly. "Kura…" Eriol said back watching as she moved towards him. Sakura smiled down at him, "How have you been?" Eriol watched as she sat down beside him, "Alright." Sakura nodded and shut her eyes tightly, "What went wrong with us?" Eriol looked at her confused, "What?"

Sakura took his hand in hers, "We had something Eriol, what happened? I need to know why you did all that. Why did you hurt me? Why did you leave me?" Eriol looked at her with sad eyes, "I didn't deserve you. I believed that you weren't good enough for me. I-I-I was jealous and when I lost you I realized what I had but my stubbornness didn't let me go and apologize. Instead I waited it out thinking you would come back begging for me. And than you were pregnant I knew that was a sign so I was so ready to tell you I wanted us to be together. But you lost the child, a-a-and I thought you had done it on purpose, I didn't know what to think Kura," he was crying now and didn't bother to wipe the tears away.

Sakura looked at him sadly, "Can't things go back to the way they were?" Eriol looked at her, "What?" Sakura smiled and shuffled closer to him, "Can't things go back to the way they were?" she repeated again. Eriol smiled and wrapped his arms around her, "Are you serious?" Sakura nodded her head in his chest, "Yes Eriol, I love you so much and I can't lose you." Eriol held onto her tighter scared that it was all just a dream, "God Sakura I've loved you since the first day I met you." Sakura started crying and looked up at him and showed him the ring. A smile appeared on both their lips and they both leaned in for a sweet kiss.

Hong Kong (too lazy to write really…so just…really quick this part)

The couple dated again, like they should've in the beginning. After a few more months past it was time for Sakura to return to Hong Kong to see everyone. "Are you nervous?" Eriol asked softly. Sakura nodded, "I would be lying if I said I wasn't." Eriol tightened his hold on her hand, "Don't worry I'm here for you." Sakura shook her head, "I have to see Syaoran by myself though." Eriol nodded in understanding, "Alright, and than we'll get everyone together to tell them."

Fast-forward

"Syaoran…" she said softly not daring to look into those amber orbs. "Sakura…" he said trying to touch her. Sakura just moved out of his grasp, "I'm engaged." Syaoran stood there shocked unsure of to do, to say. "What?" Sakura turned to look at him, "After I returned home me and Eriol got everything cleared, and now we're engaged."

Syaoran turned away, "Congratulations." Sakura nodded, "I'm so sorry Syaoran." Syaoran smiled at her, "No, I can tell that you're truly happy Saku. And if he's the man who makes you happy, than I guess I just have to learn to accept it." Sakura smiled, "Thank you." Syaoran sighed, "And Kenji?" Sakura looked at him, "You'll continue to take care of him, I mean he is the future King, and I think your mother would kill me if I stole him from her."

Syaoran chuckled, "That's true. Promise to visit though?" Sakura nodded her head happily, her auburn curls bouncing, "Of course! I mean we're still friends, and I love Kenji! What kind of mother would I be if I forgot about him?" Syaoran nodded his head, "Remember to send me an invitation." Sakura smiled, "Can do."

The wedding turned out fantastic and Sakura was never as happy as the day she walked down the aisle to her one true love. Every time she had the chance she would always look down at her hand admiring the ring, the ring that she had always kept.

To all those wondering what happened to Tomoyo, she testified against Mei Lin and Ryu. She's now living in England and no one had seen her since. Mei Lin and Ryu are getting what they deserve in jail.

Ryu turned out to have just been using the two woman, the whole time he was just in it for the riches. Mei Lin the past we revealed and that her father had been someone from court which was way Yelan admired her so. All Mei Lin did to hide her past was get a name change.

Chiharu and Takashi finally got that child they had always wanted, actually they got twins, a boy and a girl. Weird thing is they always fight; maybe it's because of sibling rivalry? Or maybe they just learned it from their parents?

Miaka and Hotohori after their honeymoon were pregnant with a baby girl. Miaka was so happy that she wouldn't stop showing off to everyone. Amiboshi and Kaori hooked up and have been dating for one year now and getting quite serious!

Yelan accepted Sakura, and had even insisted that she marry Syaoran, well until she found out she was engaged. Syaoran is now teaching Kenji the ways to be a King. Kenji is happily living with his father although he misses his mother, but he's glad he has two fathers now. And Syaoran, he's a great King for his people.

Fujitaka decided to do what he did before Sakura found him, taking care of his cherry blossoms parks all over the world. The old team from the brothel have all found a job in Sakura's now international business of selling flowers; Sakura had insisted that Eriol sell the brothel. And of course Eriol would do anything for his love.

Sakura and Eriol

Two figures laid under the moonlight gazing at the star filled sky above. "Eli," she mumbled softly. Eriol turned to her, "Yeah?" "I've never been happier in my life," she told him while cuddling closer to him. Eriol played with her soft silky hair, "Me either. You were wrong; I did get who I loved." Sakura giggled, "Well, I mean I didn't know the truth than." Eriol nodded tightening his hold on her. "Look a shooting star!" she cried when a star went zooming past.

Eriol looked up. "So what did you wish for?" she asked. "Nothing I have everything I want." Sakura giggled, "No come on you can tell me." "For a baby," he whispered huskily in her ear. Sakura blushed, "Ano…" she said softly. Eriol looked at her, "What's wrong?" he asked worriedly. Sakura looked him straight in the eye, "I wished that when the baby's born it will be a healthy one."

Eriol stared at her, "Nani! You're pregnant!" Sakura nodded her head slowly afraid of how he might react. Eriol jumped up, "This is great!" he started dancing around. Sakura giggled at the sight of her husband dancing on their balcony. Sakura tugged on his shirt causing him to stop, she smiled at him, "I'm glad I chose you."

Eriol wrapped his arms around her and hugged her close, "Me too, god I know I would've regretted my whole life if I had let you go." Sakura giggled, "Me too." Eriol smiled and kissed her head, "No regrets love?" Sakura nodded in his chest, "No regrets."
