It had been almost a year since Sakura and Syaoran had gotten married. Eriol and Tomoyo had gotten married three months after Sakura and Syaoran. At the moment, Sakura and Tomoyo were sitting in Sakuras bathroom looking at a box.
"Ok Sakura. If it is pink then it means that you are positive and if it is blue then it means that you are negative." Tomoyo said.
"Thank you Tomoyo-chan." Sakura said.
"For what?" Tomoyo asked.
"For being here, for me." Sakura said as she squeezed Tomoyos hand lightly. "I don't know Moyo. I have never been late before and I don't know if Syaoran wants a baby right now."
"Oh nonsense. Just last week I heard him talk to Eriol about what kind of a swordsman he wants his son to be!"
"Really.."
"I am going to wait out side ok?" Tomoyo told Sakura.
"Ok." After a while Sakura went out side. "Now we wait.."
"Yep," that was the only thing that Tomoyo could think of. Oh heavens sake, her cousin could be pregnant with the most cutest baby in the world! She could imagine herself designing clothes for the baby!
"It's already been 15 minutes, lets look at the test now." Sakura carried the test to the living room with out looking at it and laid it on the table.
"I can't look Moyo. You do it for me," Sakura told her friend.
Tomoyo picked up the test and her eyes widened with surprise. "Sakura.. Sakura you are going to be a mom!"
Sakura held a chair as she sat down slowly and whispered, "I'm pregnant."
"So when are you going to tell Syaoran?" Tomoyo asked as she sat down next to Sakura.
"Tonight."
A few hours later
Tomoyo had left because it was usually the time that Eriol would get home. Before she went, Sakura had made her promise that she wouldn't tell Eriol about Sakuras little secret. Syaoran had stopped his doctor job and instead brought a chain of hospitals to add to the Li corporate empire. So now Syaoran was a full time business man who was running a multi-billion empire with of course the help of his best friend, Eriol.
Sakura Point of View
I can't wait anymore. Syaoran better get home right this minute. Maybe he was staying there late today.. Ahh I can't wait. I have to tell him right now.
I grabbed the keys to my car and drove to his office which was on the top floor of a huge building.
"Hello Mrs. Li." the secretary named Emiko said.
"Hi Emiko. Is Mr. Li still in there?" I asked.
"Oh yes he is. I think that he is just finishing some business contracts. Do you want me to tell him that you are here?" she asked me.
"No, I want to go surprise him." I walked into his office slowly with out a sound at all. And I put my hands over his eyes. "Guess who?" I asked
"Hmm.. Let me think. A soft sweet voice and the wonderful smell of cherry blossoms. Is it possibly a Mrs. Li?" he said teasingly.
"Mow.. Syaoran you are no fun anymore." I said putting on a cute little pout.
He turned around and kissed my nose. "So what brings you down here so late?"
"Syaoran, I think you might want to sit down." I said as I pushed him into his office chair.
"Wait, is something wrong? Did something bad happen?" he asked now his face full of concern.
"No, I think that it is good news. That's what Tomoyo thought too." I said. "Syaoran, I am pregnant."
His face was expression was priceless. His eyes just kind of bulged out and looked at me with a shocked expression. "Pregnant.."
"Yes honey. Pregnant, as in you are going to be a Daddy." I said trying to make the words to go through his brain which wouldn't let any kind of information go through at all.
"Oh my god." He hugged me and kissed me on the lips. The kiss was full of happiness and joy. "How far do you think that you are?"
"About a month." I said.
"Does anyone else know?" he asked.
"No, well I was thinking of having a dinner party tomorrow to tell everyone about it. Do you think that it is a good idea?" I asked.
"I think that it is a great idea!" he kissed me again. "Come on, I am going to drop you off."
"Wait, what about those contracts. And how about my car." I think that he was getting a little to caught up in the excitement.
"Those can wait," he gave me another kiss. "And we can get your car over to the house later." He took my hand and started dragging me out of the office.
"Emiko, I am going home now. Please cancel any plans that I have tomorrow." Syaoran told his secretary as we were about to leave the office.
"Of course sir. But may I know why?" Emiko asked us.
Syaoran beamed at me with pride as I rubbed my stomach.
"Oh, I understand sir." she said as she smiled at us. "Don't worry I won't tell anyone until you find that the time is right."
I waved her a good bye as we left.
The next day, afternoon, 6:00 p.m.
"Syaoran, do you think that these flowers look alright on the table?" I asked him.
"Yeah, they look perfect." he said while staring at me. I giggled, he had been like that the whole entire day.
The door bell rang and Wei who was our butler now answered the door. In came Meiling, Harry, Tei and Kei (their adorable 9 month old twin boys), Tomoyo, Eriol, Yelan, Dad, Touya, Nakuru, Yuki (their two year old son who was named after his godfather), Yukito, and Syaorans four sisters and their husbands or fiancés (none of them has kids yet).
"Hi kaiju," Touya said as he greeted me.
"Sakura no kaiju" I yelled at him.
We all sat down at the dinner table and were ready to start eating. "So Sakura, why the reason for this dinner party?" Yelan asked me.
"We are going to have an announcement after dinner." I said. Upon hearing that everyone forgot there manners and started chugging their food. The six course dinner was finished with a world record of 3 minutes. I am guessing that everyone wanted to know what was so important.
We all went to the grand state living room and everyone found someplace to sit. Syaoran stood up next to me. "We have something to tell you," he said as he held my hand.
"I am pregnant." I said. I watched all of hell erupt in front of me.
"An heir!" Yelan yelled as she left her regal posture.
"A niece or nephew!" Syaorans sisters yelled.
"Second cousins!" Tomoyo and Meiling said at the same time.
All the ladies in the room ran to me and gave me a death-bear hug. Syaoran grabbed my out of the huge pile, "Let go of her!" he yelled at the hyper active people who he couldn't believe were possibly her relatives.
"I know, but we have to pick names right now.." Meiling whined.
"No way. Not this late! Sakura has to go to sleep right now." It was a more of a command rather than a request.
Normal Point of View
Syaoran and the girls finally agreed on coming to the house early the next day to discuss possible baby names. By then, he had already pushed everyone out of the house so his wife could go to sleep.
A few minutes later, Sakura had changed into her nightgown and was laying in her bed. She glanced at the clock and sighed when she saw Syaoran walk in. "Mou.. Syaoran, don't you think that it is a little bit too early to go to sleep? It is only 8:00 p.m.!"
"You and the baby deserve a good nights rest!" Syaoran said.
Sakura decided not to argue with his over protective maleness and turned in for the night.
Next day, morning, 10:00 a.m.
Sakura stretched out her hand and didn't feel Syaorans body next to hers. She sat up and saw that it was already 10 in the morning. "HOEEEEEE!" Sakura yelled.
"Good to see that you are awake too, Sleeping Beauty!" Syaoran said as he walked past Sakura.
Sakura rubbed her eyes and looked at her husband with a confused face. "Where were you?" she asked with a slight little pout.
"Downstairs, everyone came over to discuss baby names." Syaoran said. After changing and brushing her teeth, Sakura headed downstairs to see what all the big noises that were coming from the kitchen. (A/N Everyones there)
As she walked in she saw heard Eriol, Syaoran, Harry and Takashi in a very interesting conversation. "Ohayo Sakura," they all said.
"Ohayo everyone." Sakura said. "So what are you up to?"
"Well, we already started on baby boy names and I think that the guys are kind of getting out of hand with it." Tomoyo said. Yelan, Tomoyo, Meilin, Emiko, Feimei, Fanren, Siefa, Fuutie and Sakura watched the boys argue about the names. (Please try to follow this)
Eriol: "How about Gotenks? Right that down Takashi!"
Takashi: I like Goku too!
Syaoran: How about Gohan?
Harry: No way Trunks was the best!
Sakura watched this with distaste in her eyes. "Now you all listen up. THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL THAT I AM NAMING MY CHILD AFTER A CARTOON CHARACTER FROM DRAGON BALL Z! DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?"
All males in the room nodded their heads. "Good so who wants some food?"
Tomoyo rubbed her back while muttering something about hormones and how they would kick in at the weirdest times.
The day went by and finally everyone had decided on the boy names as Xiao Chen, Xiao Kojji and for the girls, the only name that Sakura wanted was Nadeshiko.
Everyone left the house after dinner and they were all thinking about Sakuras little tantrum in the morning. Their thoughts were 'Li, I feel sorry for you when Sakura hit's the craving stage.'
7 months later, early morning, 2:00 a.m.
Sakura was now in her eighth month now and was as big as ever! The doctor had told them that it was a baby boy. Thus the fight for the god mother position began… In the end it was decided that Yelan would be the god mother even though she was already the grand mother too. Syaoran and Sakura had decided that the name of the baby would be Xiao Chen.
THUMP
"Syaoran, are you ok?" Sakura asked.
"No Sakura. I am not! You just kicked me off the bed at 2 in the morning. What do you want now?" his voice sounded as if he hadn't had a good nights rest in lets say about 7 months.
"I want ramen with chocolate syrup and prunes." Sakura said.
"I think that we are out of ramen right now." Syaoran said.
"Then go buy some." Sakura said as she turned around.
"Not right now." Syaoran climbed back into the bed. "Maybe in the morning."
"Then get one of the servants to do it." Sakura muttered.
"I think that they would kill me if I went and asked them to do something like this at this time of the day. Wei is already threatening to quit if he has to continue with your cravings." Syaoran said. His friends, servants and relatives had turned their backs on him when Sakura had hit her cravings. All of them had gone on vacation, but would surprisingly get back before Sakuras due date. He noticed Sakura sit up and cover her eyes with her hands. He knew what was going to come now.
"Syaoran..you hate me! You want our baby to starve! You don't love me anymore." Sakura sobbed loudly.
"Ok, I will go get it!" Syaoran said as he put his bedroom slippers on.
"Thanks Syao-kun." Sakura said as she went back to sleeping again.
Mercy hospitals delivery room
Meiling, Tomoyo and Syaoran were in the delivery room when Sakura was giving birth. It was not a pretty sight. First of all Sakura was right on her due date meaning that there was about 15 people waiting outside the room.
"Mrs. Li, please give us one more push." the doctor told Sakura.
"THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT, SYAORAN! I AM GOING TO KILL YOU WHEN I GET OUT OF HERE. YOU ARE EVIL! EVIL! WHO CARES IF YOU NEED AN HEIR!" Sakura yelled at her beloved husband whose hand she was holding was turning a slight lavender.
"Sakura, honey.. My hand is turning purple. Do you think that you can let go of it for a while?" Syaoran said. Meiling and Tomoyo exchanged glances.
"Let go for awhile! THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT! I WOULDN'T BE HERE IF IT WEREN'T FOR YOU. OH MY GOD!" Sakura screamed this as the baby came out.
"Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Li, I am glad to tell you that you are proud parents of a healthy baby boy." the doctor said as he shook Syaorans hand.
Syaoran hugged the doctor and then gave Sakura a long kiss. He then looked at his Sakura and his son, Xiao Chen.
17 years later
The Li corporation grew to be one of the worlds biggest companies. Sakura gave birth to a baby girl named Nadeshiko five years after Xiao Chen. After Nadeshiko, she gave birth to a set of twins named Moyo and Mei who were named after their god mothers.
As for Tomoyo and Eriol, they had two boys named Kojji and Roku. Eriol was Syaorans right hand man and also Li corporations Vice president. Tomoyos clothing store soon came to be a global wide store that one could find in every mall in any country.
Meiling and Harry had, get this, 2 more boys (twins again). The boys names were Haku and Hiratu. Meiling was Tomoyos companies head CEO and she soon became very successful. As for Harry, the multi-billion dollar company he owned could not be doing any better!
As a result of all the boys (including Touyas two sons, and Yukitos three triplet boys), Nadeshiko, Moyo and Mei were the only girls. All the boys felt that it was their responsibility to take care of their 'sisters' from any boys who got in a fifty-foot range of them. I guess you could say that Touya was pretty proud of them!
