rlm@0: WARNING! this is a yuri story!
rlm@0: these characters aside from the ones I created are the property of
rlm@0: clamp!
rlm@0: 
rlm@0: Sakura sighed softly, her emerald eyes half closed as Tomoyo
rlm@0: snuggled agaisnt her.
rlm@0: 'Sakura-chan? Are you ok?' the pale girl asked, noticing Sakura's
rlm@0: unusual lack of interest in the movie.
rlm@0: 'Yeah.. just a little tired I guess!' the auburn haired girl
rlm@0: replied. True she'd been a little tired lately but what could be
rlm@0: expected when she was helping to plan her own wedding with Tomoyo.
rlm@0: Tomoyo smiled slightly, kissing Sakura's cheek. 'Your having
rlm@0: difficultly keeping up with me in our plans aren't you?' Tomoyo asked.
rlm@0: 'Hai!' Sakura replied, mid yawn. 'But you've been planning this
rlm@0: since we were 10 years old!'
rlm@0: Tomoyo giggled softly, bringing a smile to Sakura's face. 'Sakura-
rlm@0: chan..' Tomoyo started, before a loud explosion eminated from the TV.
rlm@0: 'I know.. you want our wedding to be perfect!' Sakura finished,
rlm@0: lightly kissing the pale teenager.
rlm@0: 'And it will be!' Tomoyo smiled brightly. Never had she thought that
rlm@0: she'd marry Sakura.
rlm@0: Always had she thought that the auburn haired cardmistress would run
rlm@0: off with Syaoran Li.
rlm@0: 'What are you thinking about?' Sakura asked. 'What Sakura-chan will
rlm@0: look like in her wedding dress!' Tomoyo replied, a mental image of a
rlm@0: blushing Sakura in a wedding dress instantly coming into her
rlm@0: imagination.
rlm@0: 'Hoe.. Tomoyo-chan!' Sakura whined, blushing brightly. Tomoyo
rlm@0: giggled again, resting her head on Sakura's shoulder. Slowly Sakura
rlm@0: feel asleep, her head lightly resting against Tomoyo's.
rlm@0: 
rlm@0: 'Sakura?' a voice called out to her. 'Who's there?' she called back
rlm@0: before a figure appeared a short distance from her.
rlm@0: 'Who are you?' Sakura asked, approaching the figure. 'I can't tell
rlm@0: you now.. but if you continue your plans to marry Tomoyo it will head
rlm@0: to disaster!'
rlm@0: 'No it won't!' Sakura countered. 'We love each other!' The figure
rlm@0: laughed.
rlm@0: 'I know.. but if you get married now you'll face a terrible fate!'
rlm@0: 
rlm@0: Sakura opened her eyes, gasping. Looking up she saw her older
rlm@0: brother standing over her.
rlm@0: 'About time Kaijuu!' he said. 'Go away Onii-chan!' Sakura said.
rlm@0: Touya raised an eyebrow.
rlm@0: Sakura hadn't even repsonded to his teasing this time. 'What's the
rlm@0: matter Sakura?' he asked, just noticing Tomoyo standing at the door.
rlm@0: 'Bad dream!' Sakura replied. 'Again?' Sakura nodded. 'This person
rlm@0: says I shouldn't marry Tomoyo-chan!' Sakura said, 'I want to! But if
rlm@0: tell her I don't want to I'll hurt her! And I don't want to do that!'
rlm@0: Touya sighed softly.
rlm@0: 'Did this person say it was a mistake to marry her?'
rlm@0: 'Yeah!' Sakura replied. Touya smiled slightly. 'Wierd!' Sakura
rlm@0: thought, having only seen her older brother smile on a few occansions.
rlm@0: 'It might be a mistake Sakura.. but it's your mistake to make!'
rlm@0: Touya said, before notiing Sakura's confused look.
rlm@0: 'You should marry her if it's what you want Sakura! No one can tell
rlm@0: you other wise!' Touya said. Sakura smiled slightly.
rlm@0: 'Arigatou Onii-chan!' she said, before pausing for a moment. 'And
rlm@0: I'm not a Kaijuu!' she added, raising her voice.
rlm@0: 'She's back to normal now!' Touya thought leaving the room. 'You can
rlm@0: come in now Tomoyo-chan!' Sakura said, laying back on her pillow.
rlm@0: 'Are you ok Sakura-chan?' Tomoyo asked, laying next to Sakura. 'Hai!
rlm@0: And I've come to a decision!' Sakura said.
rlm@0: 'You want to call the wedding off don't you?' Tomoyo said sadly.
rlm@0: Sakura smiled brightly. 'Nope! I want to marry you right now!' Sakura
rlm@0: said, turning to face Tomoyo.
rlm@0: 'R... Really?' Tomoyo asked, unsure if she heard her girlfriend right.
rlm@0: 'Hai!' the auburn haired girl said, hugging the pale girl with one
rlm@0: arm.
rlm@0: 'But I haven't even made your dress yet! I haven't even thought of
rlm@0: making the cake!' Tomoyo said, counting down what still had to be
rlm@0: done.
rlm@0: Sakura smiled slightly before stopping Tomoyo by placing a finger
rlm@0: over the pale girls lips.
rlm@0: 'I know what still needs doing Tomoyo-chan!' Sakura said, 'But I
rlm@0: think you should know something!'
rlm@0: Suddenly she stood up and walked to her closet. Carefully she pulled
rlm@0: out 2 dresses. Tomoyo gasped.
rlm@0: 'You made these?' she asked. 'Um.. no! This was my mothers wedding
rlm@0: dress!' Sakura said, raising the dress in her left hand, 'And this
rlm@0: was your mothers!' Sakura finished raising her right hand.
rlm@0: Tomoyo stood up and slowly walked towards Sakura and gently felt the
rlm@0: dresses that their mothers had woren when the had gotten married.
rlm@0: 'Wow!' Tomoyo whispered. 'Where'd you get them?' Rarely was she
rlm@0: surprise by what Sakura could do but this time she was.
rlm@0: Sakura laughed nervously. 'Um.. Sonomi-sama would only let me borrow
rlm@0: this is if she could see you in it Tomoyo-chan!' Sakura said. Tomoyo
rlm@0: smiled slightly.
rlm@0: 'But it might not fit me!' she said, 'It looks like it'd fit you!'
rlm@0: Sakura nodded slightly, 'It might!'
rlm@0: 'But what about school?' Tomoyo asked. It was their final year and
rlm@0: she didn't want either to fail their exams because they skipped a day
rlm@0: to get married.
rlm@0: 'Don't worry Tomoyo-chan.. we'll do it after school!' Sakura said,
rlm@0: putting the dresses back in the closet.
rlm@0: Tomoyo sighed softly and smiled. Sakura's impulsiveness was one of
rlm@0: the many things the pale hairess loved about her.
rlm@0: 'Let's do it Sakura-chan!' Tomoyo said. It wasn't often she went
rlm@0: along with Sakura's impulsivness, but this one time she felt it was
rlm@0: the right thing to do.
rlm@0: 'Did you find somewhere on such short notice Sakura-chan?' Tomoyo
rlm@0: asked, as Sakura carefully put their dresses away.
rlm@0: 'Hai! Its a small temple in Tokyo!' Sakura replied. She sighed
rlm@0: softly having gone almost everywhere else she could think of only to
rlm@0: be turned down the instant she mentioned she was marrying another
rlm@0: girl.
rlm@0: She'd been surprised to find the owner of the temple agreeing to
rlm@0: hold the wedding 'It won't be the first time for that kind of
rlm@0: ceremony!' the old man had said.
rlm@0: This was Tomoyo's first clue. 'She's been planning this for a
rlm@0: while!' she thought. Her smile grew slightly.
rlm@0: Sakura sat next to Tomoyo and smiled slightly. 'Are you ok with
rlm@0: this?' she asked.
rlm@0: 'Of course Sakura-chan!' Tomoyo replied. Sakura had concerned about
rlm@0: Tomoyo's happiness since they had started dating, having realised the
rlm@0: pain she'd unintentionally caused Tomoyo.
rlm@0: 'Girls!' a voice called out, 'Breakfast!' The girls smiled and left
rlm@0: the room.
rlm@0: 
rlm@0: As they walked to school, the reality set in. They were going to get
rlm@0: married.
rlm@0: 'Sakura-chan.. Tomoyo-chan! Wait up!' a couple of voices called out.
rlm@0: They stopped and turned around to see Rika, Naoko and Chihiru running
rlm@0: towards them.
rlm@0: 'You walk too fast!' Naoko said, when they caught upto them. 'Sorry
rlm@0: about that!' Tomoyo said. Sakura smiled slightly.
rlm@0: 'Have you set a date yet?' Rika asked. 'Yep!' Sakura replied.
rlm@0: 'When?' Chihiru asked. 'Today!' Sakura asked.
rlm@0: 'After school!' Sakura added, noticing the confused look on her
rlm@0: friends faces. 'Today?' Chiharu asked.
rlm@0: 'Hai Chiharu-chan!' Sakura replied. 'Where?' Naoko asked. 'It's a
rlm@0: small temple in Tyoko!' Tomoyo said.
rlm@0: Their three friends looked at each other with mixed emotions. 'Have
rlm@0: you told your parents yet?' Rika asked.
rlm@0: 'We told Sonomi-sama!' Sakura said, 'I just have to tell Onii-chan
rlm@0: and my father!' Sakura sighed softly.
rlm@0: She had no idea how she was going to tell Touya and her father that
rlm@0: the wedding plans had changed on such short notice.
rlm@0: 'Wow!' Chiharu said. 'Do you have your dresses?' Tomoyo asked. The
rlm@0: girls nodded, and smiled. As they walked into the school building
rlm@0: they talked about where they were meeting.
rlm@0: 
rlm@0: They stood outside the school, wondering why Sakura had asked them
rlm@0: to meet her here.
rlm@0: Slowly Sakura walked out of the school. 'Hi!' She called out,
rlm@0: jogging upto them. 'Why'd you call us her Kaijuu?' Touya asked.
rlm@0: 'I'm not a Kaijuu!' Sakura yelled, kicking him in the shins. He
rlm@0: whinched, it wasn't that bad when Sakura was younger, but now he
rlm@0: wondered if it was a good idea to continue to tease his sister.
rlm@0: 'Sakura-chan..' Fujitaka said, attracting her attention. Sakura
rlm@0: looked at him blankly for a moment, the reason she'd asked them to
rlm@0: meet her forgoten.
rlm@0: 'Oh.. the date's changed!' she said. 'To when Sakura-chan?' her
rlm@0: father asked.
rlm@0: 'Today.. after school!' Sakura replied, handing the a piece of paper
rlm@0: with the temples address on it.
rlm@0: 'Oh!' She looked up and smiled slightly. She turned and walked back
rlm@0: into the school. Fujitaka smiled slightly, before looking at the note.
rlm@0: 'Looks like I'll have to tell Yuki!' Touya said, as they walked
rlm@0: away. Fujitaka smiled as he watched Sakura vanish from sight.
rlm@0: Soon she'd marry the person she loved.
rlm@0: 
rlm@0: Sakura sighed, lightly poking her food. In a few hours she'd be
rlm@0: married to the person she loved more then anything.
rlm@0: 'Sakura-chan.. are you ok?' a soft voice asked, bringing her out
rlm@0: thoughts. 'Hai?' she smiled slightly.
rlm@0: Being with Tomoyo always had a calming effect on her. Tomoyo smiled
rlm@0: at her, obviously hiding her own nervousness.
rlm@0: Sakura sighed softly. Marriage, what if they wanted children? She'd
rlm@0: never thought of that before.
rlm@0: 'What are you thinking about Sakura-chan?' Tomoyo asked. Sakura
rlm@0: looked up into Tomoyo's stormy blue eyes.
rlm@0: 'What if you want to have a child Tomoyo-chan?' Sakura asked softly.
rlm@0: What if the pale girl wanted a child.
rlm@0: She certainly couldn't give her one. 'We'll deal with that when the
rlm@0: time comes Sakura-chan!' Tomoyo replied. Sakura smiled.
rlm@0: She'd asked Kero-chan if he knew how 2 girls could have a child. He
rlm@0: had smiled and said it was simple and went off into a complicated
rlm@0: explaination.
rlm@0: 'Hi Sakura-chan!' a voice said, from behind them. Slowly turning
rlm@0: they saw Meiling and Syaoran Li.
rlm@0: Syaoran's scowl vanished into a small smile for a moment before it
rlm@0: returned. Sakura moved slightly, allowing Syaoran and Meiling to sit
rlm@0: down.
rlm@0: Quickly Meiling sat next to Sakura before her cousin could. Syaorans
rlm@0: scowled again, sitting next to Meiling.
rlm@0: 'How's the wedding plans coming Tomoyo?' Meiling asked, taking a
rlm@0: bite of her food.
rlm@0: The pale girl smiled and lauched into a lengthy expaination of the
rlm@0: progress of the wedding plans, inclueding the change in dates.
rlm@0: At the end Meiling sat looking at her food, utterly confused. 'All I
rlm@0: asked was how the wedding plans coming!' she thought.
rlm@0: Sakura smiled slightly at her, knowin full well how much this was
rlm@0: confusing. 'So they're going well then?' Syaoran asked bluntly.
rlm@0: 'Hai!' Sakura replied. Meiling smiled. 'Good!' she said. Syaoran
rlm@0: looked at her, shocked.
rlm@0: 'How can this be good?' he asked himself. His jealousy grew. Hadn't
rlm@0: Sakura been in love with him?
rlm@0: He was sure of this when he'd had to return to China. Suddenly
rlm@0: Sakura and Tomoyo had become a couple and were about to get married.
rlm@0: When had this happened? Meiling looked at her cousin and smiled.
rlm@0: She'd right all along.
rlm@0: Sakura turned to them, a slight blush covering her cheeks. 'Would
rlm@0: you like to come to the wedding?' she asked.
rlm@0: Meiling nodded, her smile growing slightly. She turned to Syaoran,
rlm@0: who remained silent until she jabbed him with her elbow.
rlm@0: Slowly he nodded. 'Arigatou!' Sakura said.
rlm@0: 
rlm@0: A few hours later, she stood a the entrance of the shrine. Tomoyo
rlm@0: was inside waiting for her, as was everyone else.
rlm@0: 'This is it Sakura!' she whispered to herself. She was looked down
rlm@0: at herself, dressed in Sonomi's wedding dress, she closed her eyes
rlm@0: visualising Tomoyo in Nadeshiko's.
rlm@0: Opening her eyes, she slowly walked into the shrine ready to marry
rlm@0: the person she loved and face their future.
rlm@0: 
rlm@0: YEARS LATER
rlm@0: 
rlm@0: 'Papa!' a small voice said, before someone hugged her legs tightly.
rlm@0: Looking down she smiled brightly at her young daughter.
rlm@0: 'Hi Nadeshiko-chan!' she said. It was a few moments before the young
rlm@0: girl let her legs go to look up
rlm@0:  Getting on her knees, Sakura was surprised at the tightness of the
rlm@0: young girls hug. 'Are you ok Nadeshiko-chan?' Sakura asked, holding
rlm@0: the girl as she slowly stood up.
rlm@0: Nadeshiko nodded, looking up and smiling at her. 'How are you
rlm@0: feeling Nadeshiko-chan?' Sakura asked, carefully resting her free
rlm@0: hand on her daughters forehead.
rlm@0: 'Much better!' The pale girl said. 'Sakura-san?' a voice came from
rlm@0: behind her. 'Megumi-chan!' Nadeshiko whispered, her smile growing
rlm@0: slightly as Sakura set her down.
rlm@0: 'Hi Nadeshiko-chan!' Megumi said, blushing as Nadeshiko hugged her
rlm@0: tightly, her new found feelings for her friend making her blush
rlm@0: brighter.
rlm@0: Sakura giggled softly. 'How are you Megumi-chan?' a soft voice
rlm@0: asked, coming from the living room.
rlm@0: Nadeshiko smiled slightly as Megumi blushed again. 'I.. I'm ok
rlm@0: Tomoyo-san!' the blonde haired girl replied.
rlm@0: 'Can I show you something Megumi-chan?' Nadeshiko asked. As soon as
rlm@0: the young blonde nodded her head, Nadeshiko took hold of her hand and
rlm@0: lead her away.
rlm@0: Sakura smiled as she watched the girls go, knowing what her young
rlm@0: daughter was showing her friend.
rlm@0: She blushed when she felt a pair of arms wrap themselves around her
rlm@0: waist. 'How was school Daidouji-sensei?' a soft voice asked.
rlm@0: 'It went well Daidouji-san!' Sakura replied. 'Are you sure this is
rlm@0: ok Nadeshiko-chan?' they heard Megumi ask.
rlm@0: 'Hai!' Nadeshiko replied. 'Hi papa!' Nadeshiko said, looking towards
rlm@0: the door. Tomoyo smiled slightly, seeing their youngest daughter and
rlm@0: her friend in hers and Sakura's wedding dresses.
rlm@0: 'What do you think?' the pale gil asked, slowly turning around. 'You
rlm@0: look very pretty Nadeshiko-chan!' Sakura said.
rlm@0: Nadeshiko smiled brightly. 'Arigatou Sakura-papa!'
rlm@0: 'Who'd you marry Nadeshiko-chan?' Tomoyo asked, picking a camera up
rlm@0: from her bedside table.
rlm@0: Nadeshiko giggled softly before hugging Megumi. 'Megumi-chan!' she
rlm@0: replied, smiling as the blonde haired girl blushed brightly.
rlm@0: 'Why is Nadeshiko-chan doing this?' she asked herself. She smiled as
rlm@0: Nadeshiko hugged her while Tomoyo took their picture.
rlm@0: Nadeshiko smiled again while Megumi blushed brighter. 'Is that going
rlm@0: next to Onii-chan's?' Nadeshiko asked.
rlm@0: Tomoyo nodded slightly. The pale girl smiled and hugged her mother
rlm@0: tightly before they changed out of the wedding dresses and left the
rlm@0: room.
rlm@0: Sakura smiled slightly, looking at the wall she saw 3 similar
rlm@0: pictures. Her and Tomoyo on their wedding day, Kumiko and Hikaru at
rlm@0: Nadeshiko's age dressed in their wedding dresses, and another of
rlm@0: Kumiko and Hikaru on their wedding day.
rlm@0: Sakura smiled slightly, remembering the small children she and
rlm@0: Tomoyo had brought home. 
rlm@0: They've grown so quickly!' she thought. She turned to see Tomoyo
rlm@0: smile at her, knowing what she was thinking.
rlm@0: Slowly they left the room, letting some memories rest. At least, for
rlm@0: now.
