Author's Notes: Thank you all for your reviews! Agh, our "sembreak" or rather, long weekend has ended and it's back to school again! It's officially the second semester and I have to do good since my grades on the third quarter, depends on my final grade. Agh. I hate school. Anyway, read on!

Chapter Eleven – Back Home

"Flight 713 to Tomoeda, Japan now boarding at Gate 15. Flight 713 now boarding. Thank you" the loudspeaker announced

Syaoran and Sakura released each other from their hug. Sakura looked at Syaoran who had a sad expression on his face.

"I'll be back. I'll go to your wedding, I promise, so don't be sad anymore." Sakura said, smiling, "You're getting married in a few more weeks, be happy"

Syaoran looked up at her.

"Promise me you'll be happy" she smiled again

Syaoran forced a smile and nodded, "I promise"

"Sakura! C'mon! We're going to be late!" Tomoyo called out

"I have to go" Sakura said, "Send me the invitation, okay? Here's my address" she handed him a piece of paper with her address and telephone number written down on it, "Bye, Syaoran. You too, Eriol" she nodded at Eriol who suddenly appeared beside Syaoran.

"Have a safe trip" Syaoran said

Sakura gave them one last smile before walking towards Tomoyo who was still waiting. After Sakura gave her boarding pass to the woman, she looked behind him and saw Syaoran with a sad look on his face. Sakura turned around and forced back the tears that wanted to stream down from the eyes of the green-eyed beauty.

'I'm sorry, Sakura. I'll never be happy without you'

Eriol noticed Syaoran's expression; he looked like he was about to crumble and turn into microscopic bits of Syaoran on the floor.

"You love her, don't you?"

Syaoran closed his eyes and sighed, "Yes, Eriol. I love her"

"But more than a friend, right?" Eriol grinned

Syaoran looked at Eriol and glared at him, "Yes, Eriol! How long did it take for it to register in your pea-sized brain!?"

"I should feel insulted by that remark, but I will let you off for a while. Anyway, if you love her, what's going to happen to Amaya?"

Syaoran sighed, "That's a bad thing, and I have to marry her now"

Syaoran went back to his office building with Eriol. He had to make a quick run to the building to avoid any paparazzi that might just appear out of no where.

Sure, he was able to avoid the lurking paparazzi but when he opened the door to his office, Amaya was sitting on the chair behind Syaoran's table.

"Syaoran! I'm so glad you're back! We have so much to discuss!"

Syaoran frowned, "What are you doing here?"

"Nothing really," Amaya shrugged, "Are you just going to stand there and stare at me?" she giggled

Eriol clamped a hand over his mouth to prevent himself from laughing so loud. Syaoran ignored her and went inside.

"Oh, who's this?"

"Eriol Hiirigizawa" Eriol said, "Congratulations on your engagement"

"Why, thank you" Amaya smiled

"He's going to be my best man" Syaoran stated

Eriol looked at him with wide eyes. Syaoran glared at him.

"I'm flattered" Eriol chuckled, "Thank you, Syaoran"

"Anyway, we have to discuss the guest list. Sit down, Syaoran"

"Get off my chair" Syaoran muttered gruffly at her

Amaya noticed his tone, glared at him but immediately stood up and sat down on the lounge chair, beside her was Eriol.

"Anyway, here's the list of the bridesmaids and the groomsmen" Amaya took out a piece of paper with names written on it.

"And here's the guest list" Amaya took out another paper and had written down about over 20 names.

Syaoran looked at Amaya who was smiling at him. Syaoran grabbed a pen and wrote down something on the bottom part of the paper since there wasn't enough space at the top.

"What are you doing?" Amaya asked. Amaya took the paper and looked at it.

Sakura Kinomoto

Tomoyo Daidouji

Meiling Li

Amaya frowned at the new list of names.

"Daidouji is a fashion designer; I won't be surprised if you know her. She is also Eriol's…err…girlfriend. Am I right, Eriol?" Syaoran said

Amaya looked at Eriol.

"Um…" Eriol stuttered and received a 'just-say-yes' look from Syaoran, "Yes. She's my girlfriend. I hope it's alright that she's invited.

Amaya sighed, "Very well. Meiling Li? I presume she's someone related to you?"

Syaoran nodded, "She's my cousin. She's going to kill me if she's not invited."

"Why are you inviting that model, Sakura Kinomoto? You know her personally?"

Syaoran nodded, "She's my best friend. I would be very happy if she was there to witness this… (ugh) wedding"

"Fine, if it would make you happy" Amaya said

"By the way, where did you get the ring? I don't remember giving you any ring"

"Your mother gave it to me since she knew you're not going to give me any"

"Are you saying that my mother gave you her ring, which also happens to be her favorite?" Syaoran asked, standing up.

Amaya innocently nodded. Syaoran glared at her and sat back down.

'I have to talk to mother about this'

"Home sweet home!" Sakura said, as she stepped outside Tomoeda's airport.

"Oy, kaijuu!" came the familiar voice of Touya

"I'm not a kaijuu!" Sakura angrily said, walking towards Touya who was waiting beside the car. Even if the two siblings where both adults now, they still acted like children.

"See you soon, Sakura" Tomoyo said, getting inside her limousine with several bodyguards.

Sakura waved goodbye at Tomoyo as Touya placed Sakura's luggage inside the trunk of the car. Sakura got inside the car and sat at the passenger's seat.

"How's Kaho and your kids?" Sakura asked

"They're fine. How about you, how's your trip at Hong Kong?"

"Fine. Lots of surprises"

"So, when is this magazine going to appear with your monster face?" Touya teased

Sakura glared daggers at Touya and instead of stepping on his foot; she pinched him on the arm.

"OW!" Touya yelped, placing his hand over where she pinched him, "Watch it! I'm driving!"

"It's your fault anyway!"

"It's not my fault you're such a monster" Touya snorted

"AAGH! TOUYA!"

The ride home was…eventful. Touya's arm was now filled with red marks from all the pinching Sakura did.

"We're home!" Touya called out as he opened the polished wooden door.

"Welcome back" Kaho said, smiling at him

"Daddy!"

A small boy around the age of four and a small two-year old girl, came rushing out of the kitchen and hugged Touya's legs. Touya bent down and kissed their forehead.

"Aunt Sakura!" they squealed and ran towards Sakura

"Welcome back, Sakura. How was your trip in Hong Kong?" Kaho asked

Sakura smiled at her, "Fine. It was pretty…eventful. Lots of surprises were in store for me"

"I hope they were good surprises" Kaho said

"Yeah, most of them"

"That's good to hear" Kaho said, before turning around and going back inside the kitchen. When Sakura saw Kaho's retreating back, she looked down at the floor with a sad expression. Touya, who just entered the house, holding Sakura's luggage saw Sakura. He placed her luggage down and went towards Sakura.

"Are you okay?"

Sakura nodded, "Yeah. I'm fine"

"C'mon, let's go talk outside"

The two siblings went outside the veranda that led to the garden. They sat down on two chairs, opposite each other.

"So, tell me; what's wrong?"

"Nothing's wrong" she mumbled, looking at her lap

"You're lying, Sakura. Something happened in Hong Kong, I'm sure of it! I can tell by the look on your face. Did it involve that Chinese gaki? What's his name again? Syaoran?"

Sakura could feel tears sliding her face. She nodded slowly. Touya frowned and clenched his fist.

"I should have known it has something to do with that gaki. What did he do to you?"

"N-Nothing"

Touya noticed Sakura's shaky voice and some wet spots on her lap. Touya stood up and crouched in front of Sakura. He handed her his handkerchief. Sakura took it and gently wiped her tears.

"What did he do to you?"

Sakura ignored his question, "He's getting married"

Touya looked at Sakura with a surprised expression.

"I know it's stupid and shallow of me to cry over such thing because I technically don't have feelings for him, but now I realize that all of these tears and crying are happening because I have feelings for him and that because…I love him." She sniffled.

"Ssh…it's okay…" Touya said, hugging her.

'I'll get you for this. You're going to pay' Touya angrily thought.
