Author: Sakuraloveu here…trying to get what you guys are saying. Few of the reviews were saying that I shouldn't end this story anytime soon, and few of them were saying that they wanted to see Syaoran propose soon but didn't say if they wanted the story to end and the others just didn't make any sense! Oi, reviews can be very confusing sometimes. But I appreciate you guys all the same!
Now go enjoy the chapter after all my blahs… :P

kawaiiseeker987: Here, another update!
Hey, we are doing pretty well on the reviews guys! I got like 12 or something reviews for the last chapter, and at this rate, if I post another 8 chapters, I'm going to make it to 100! Problem is…I don't think I'm going to make it to the 8 chapters… -walks away thinking-
Readers Notice:
Guys, Syaoran's going to do it soon, and I have a little offer to make to my loyal readers! Though I already have a little idea of how the proposal will be like, I thought maybe YOU GUYS have your little ideas popping out of your minds too! So if you like, send me your ideas of how YOU think Syaoran should propose to Sakura! Who knows, if there's one that REALLY catches my attention, I'll use it! Or combine with the others or something…OH MY GOSH! The possibilities…
Disclaimer: Still, I don't own CCS or anything else for that matter… (-Cry- once again, WHY DON'T I OWN SYAORAN!)
On with the story……Chapter Thirteen: Proposal Rehearsal Part II—HOE?
After about 20 minutes of chatting happily together, Sakura and Tomoyo finally arrived at the fabric store. One foot into the store, Tomoyo's already zooming through each displays in the shop, frequently crying stuff over her shoulder to a slightly embarrassed Sakura in the likes of:
"AH SAKURA-CHAN! You'll look SO kawaii in a summer dress made of this! Or this! Or…"
"SAKURA-CHAN! COME SEE THIS! ISN'T THIS THE CUTEST SHADE OF PINK EVER!"
"SAKURA-CHAN…"
Slipping away from the hysterical—in a good way—Tomoyo, Sakura wondered around the store, looking at different cloth-making materials with interest, and occasionally picking up a cute button here and a pretty ribbon there.
…
Good…Sakura-chan's distracted…Hiding behind a pile of silk, Tomoyo watched as Sakura slowly walked around, looking at things. Taking out her cell phone, she fast-dialed a number, and waited for an answer on the other end.
"Hello."
"I'm done my part, how's yours going?" Once the phone was answered on the other end, Tomoyo hurriedly whispered into it, afraid that Sakura would hear them.
"Amazingly well."
"How long do you need?"
"How long can you hold?"
Peeking over the silk, Tomoyo's eyes searched the store for Sakura, and found her examining a rather interesting bag. I just hope she doesn't lose the interest too soon…
"I'll hold her as long as I can, but I will need to bring her back before sun down. That's the latest." Turning back, Tomoyo whispered into the phone once again.
"Perfect. Before sun down, I'll finish my part. Now if you will excuse me, I've got a little plan to execute…good luck Tomoyo-chan."
"Oh! Wait! Touya is…" Before Tomoyo's sentence was finished, the phone was already hanged up on the other end. Recalling the encounter she had with Touya merely half hour ago, Tomoyo sighed worriedly.
Touya…please do not interfere…it's all for Sakura…(A/N: The characters will be a bit OOC out of character at places, so please excuse me on that…)
Key of Clow

Power of LightReveal Yourself
And Shine Your Light
In a moment of golden glow, a long black wand appeared in midair in the dimmed room of the House of Clow. A soft chuckle was heard as a hand grabbed hold of the wand, and raises it up high, with a swish of golden light. The holder stared at the strange symbol on top of the wand for a moment longer, before closing his eyes behind a pair of blinding glasses, and started to chant.

Glow
The Book of Sakura Cards is glowing inside of Sakura's room. The soft golden pink glow dimmed as the book opened itself, and a Sakura Card came flying out. The glow soon turned into countless sparkles, spreading in spiral forms in the middle of the room. Coming together to form a screen of white light, a last burst of shine died down to reveal the Sakura Card Mirror…in Sakura's form.
"HO-E?"
Looking extremely confused, Mirror looked around her surroundings, and soon realized that she was in her Mistress' room. "Hoe…how did…but she…I thought…" putting one of her index fingers on to her chin, Mirror still stood in the middle of the room, where she was just formed, and looked quite unsure of what's going on.
Ah…I see I have succeed on making you coming out- Out of a sudden, a voice in Mirror's head sounded, making her jump out of surprise.
"Who…what…hn…" Twisting around in a circle, Mirror looked even more confused as she tried to locate where the voice was coming from. "Who are you?" Who is he? What does he want with me? What does he want with Mistress Sakura? Mirror panicked.
That, you need not to know. I am no one evil, and I certainly do not possess anything bad against your Mistress, as I find you thinking of it just now- Somehow managing to read Mirror's mind, the person in her head assured her of his goodness.
"Why should I trust you?" Mirror asked out loud, ignoring the fact that she's hearing the voice in her head. Last time I checked, talking to the voice in your head isn't healthy…was it Kero who told me this?
You have no reason to trust me. However, if you want what is best for your Mistress Kinomoto Sakura, then you will, even on the account of you being controlled by someone other than her, trust me with all your might. And yes, talking to the voice in your head would not be healthy, as you apparently learned from Kerobero- Hints of amusement can be clearly told by Mirror in the way of which the voice spoke the last line.
A slight blush formed on Mirror's face, seeing as the person of the voice had read her mind once again. Of course, he can read my mind! Glad that whoever it is that's talking to her can't see her right now, Mirror said out loud once more: "I don't know who you are, I don't know what you want with me, or Sakura. But if you promise me that you will do no harm to my Mistress, then I shall trust you. Now would you mind telling me exactly, the reason you summoned me here?"
I thought you will never ask-

"What the…" Stopping sharp on mixing his coffee, Touya stood infront of the staircase to the second floor, and frowned at it.
It…it's…but Sakura's…how did she…who let…A bunch of suspicions came to his head the second Touya sensed the magic aura flowing in the second floor of his house…and it's not Syaoran's. Or "the gaki's", as Touya likes to put it.
It's the Sakura cards…but Sakura's out…then who…Taking in more of the familiar sense of his sister's magical cards—which she thought he didn't know about…even after all these years—Touya put down his coffee and decided to go up there and see for himself if anything's going on.
Coming closer to his sister's room, Touya can feel the magical aura becoming stronger. Yeah, it's definitely the Sakura cards…wait… Sensing a slightly different but definitely familiar magical aura, Touya laughed in his mind.
Oh…so HE is the one behind all this…
"NANI?" For the second time of the day, the same shriek is heard yet again through the Kinomoto residence.
Afraid something had just gone wrong, Touya busted into his little sister's room with his eyebrows knitted together in an annoyed sort of way and demanded, rather than asking: "Okay, what is going on in here."
Of course, though he was prepared to find something strange in Sakura's room, Touya was still a little surprised to see 'Sakura' standing in the middle of the room, looking shocked and scared altogether.
"Er…onii-chan…" 'Sakura' looked at 'her' onii-chan standing at the door, looking pretty annoyed.
"Mirror, what is going on in here?" Not even bothering to play along, Touya leaned against the door frame with one of his foot crossed over the other, and his arms folded infront of his chest, looking directly at Mirror, waiting for his answer.
(A/N: THAT position…is the simplest and the hottest position a guy can ever do! It makes them look all cool and mysterious…especially when you have a guy as hot as Touya pulling it off…excuse me while I go drool…-drooling-)
Apparently a bit taken back by the reaction of 'her' onii-chan, Touya watched as Mirror merely stood there staring at him for a second, and a blush quickly forming on her face.
"Um…nothing…nothing really…nothing bad." Mirror managed to speak out through her nerves of the presence of Touya.
"Nothing bad? Then nothing good either." Touya still had his blank face on, but unnoticed by Mirror, he was sensing his way through the room, and stopped momentarily at the Book of Sakura Cards before coming back to her.
"No! I mean…" Unnerved by Touya, Mirror's blush got deeper and she looked down at the floor, trying to come up with a response.
"Alright Mirror, I'll leave you alone with Eriol. But don't do anything stupid okay?" By the end of this sentence, the annoyance in Touya's tone was gone, and to Mirror, Touya actually sounds pretty…worried. And it wasn't until Touya was out of the room, did Mirror realize that Touya knew Eriol, the reincarnation of the Clow, was in the room. Well, at least in the presence of her mind anyway.
Closing the door behind him, Touya quietly walked down the hall and went down the stairs. Getting his not-so-hot-anymore coffee off the kitchen table, he sat down in the living room, and sipped on the cup.
And smiled.
"Eriol, this is not a good idea. Not a good idea at all!" Mirror muttered to herself, aka. Eriol Hiiragazawa, while on her way, slowly, down the hall toward Syaoran's room.
Do as I explained, and you will be fine-
"What if he senses something from me? I mean, I'm not my Mistress, I can't possess the same aura as her…" Still uncertain, Mirror stopped infront of Syaoran's door, and not about to knock on it anytime soon.
As I told you before, trust me. I assure you that you will be fine as long as you do what I explained to you back there-
"Still…if anything goes wrong, whom am I supposed to…" Mirror didn't get to finish her sentence, because at that moment, the door opened, cutting her short, and a fresh looking Syaoran stood in the doorway.
"Oh…Sakura." Syaoran stared blankly at his girlfriend, who's looking a bit awkward back at him.
"Hoe…um…hi…Li-san…I mean Syaoran!" Mirror forced a bright smile on to her face, despite the nervous breakdown that's going on inside her mind, apart from Eriol. This feels too weird…
"Sakura, what's up?" Greeting back equally brightly to Mirror, Syaoran smiled and stepped aside from the door, gesturing 'Sakura' to come in to his room.
"Um…" Stepping in, Mirror finally noticed that Syaoran, with all his freshness, was in fact, shirtless. "No…nothing mu…much…"
"Cool. Hey, do you want to go somewhere today? It's pretty nice outside." Syaoran, NOT noticing Mirror's stare, stood infront of her—still shirtless.
"Um…er…hoe…" Mirror tripped on her words, trying not to stare at Syaoran.
FINALLY noticing the reason why 'Sakura' is so nervous, Syaoran looked down at himself and blushed, though faintly, and turned around to get a shirt from the closet. "Sorry Sakura, I just got out from the shower, guess I forgot to put a shirt on."
"That's…that's quite…quite alright." Mirror turned around to face the wall, blushing madly. I'm so embarrassed! I'm never going to pull this off!
No Mirror, we are already here. Do not back out now-
Eriol! You are still there? Out of all the embarrassment, Mirror forgot about Eriol completely. You…you saw, I mean heard…what went on?
Since I'm in your mind right now, yes, I did. And may I say, you blush quite a lot for a girl your age-
Rolling her eyes, Mirror didn't bother to reply to that. Instead, she focused on the task at hand. The task that Eriol had managed to talk her into, with much promise of NOTHING will go wrong.
If anything goes wrong, it will NOT be my fault…"Um…Syaoran…"
…
After Note:
Preparation "Proposal Rehearsal" is complete. Now with Mirror into the picture, what will the future hold for Syaoran? Most importantly, what will ERIOL plan for Syaoran? Is Syaoran EVER going to make it in the next three weeks? Find out in the next chapter of "Be My Wife"…
