Hey everyone! I've never written anything for Tsubasa, but I'm going to give it a try! So here is goes.

Disclaimer: I do not own Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles, or Tsubasa Tokyo Revelations! I'm just a major fan, anf fangirl for Syaoran.

Three years after the start of their journey

Three years had passed, and Syaoran and company had retreived all of the princesses memories.

(Or at least they thought)

But sadly, for our hero at least, Sakura still loved Syaoran's clone, and it hurt him deeper than any blade.

Syaoran and Sakura had returned to Clow,two and a half years after the princess had lost her memories, and Syaoran had set out on his journey.( Syaoran and Sakura are roughly 17 to 18 by this point)

When the two teens had returned to their home dimension, Sakura begged her brother Toya, the king, to give Syaoran a job in the palace.

Toya had said that before they worried about that, they first needed to find a body guard for Sakura. Sakura simply smiled and pointed to Syaoran. "He'll be my body guard!" Sakura replied, and Toya knew that he had absolutely no say on the subject.

And so it had been.

Sakura had given Syaoran a special badge that looked like her wings, and he could now get into the palace any time he wanted. This saved alot of time for the two of them.

All of this had happened two years ago.

It was the day of king Toya's birthday. Sakura had planned a monsterous surprise birthday party for him, and Syaoran had watched her turn down every guy that had asked to take her to the ball.

The most recent attempt had been quite amusing, at least for Syaoran!

"Princess come to the ball with me" The poor guy begged, as the princess was checking the guest list. Sakura just looked at him over the clip board she was holding.

"I'm sorry, but No" Sakura said nicely and turned her back to him to look at the decorations. The guy stood up, and grabbed ahold of Sakura's arm, and spun her around forcefully.

Syaoran was standing in the corner, putting up a banner.

"Ow! Your hurting me!" Sakura cried. The guy smirked at her, "Look! I wasn't asking you to the ball, I said that you coming with me! GOT IT!!" He said angrily after being turned down by the young girl.

Suddenly there was a tap, on the guys shoulder, and his hands were removed from the Princesses' shoulders.

The guy turned around and received a swift kick to the jaw that sent him flying into the opposite wall.

Sakura looked at her bodyguard and hugged him. Sakura looked up at Syaoran and quietly whispered her simple little request. "Syaoran? Can you throw this guy out of the palace? Please?" Syaoran moved over to the guy and cracked his knuckles.

"It would be my pleasure... Princess"

As for all the other guys that had asked her out later that day, Syaoran remained by her side so she wouldn't get hurt.

Syaoran couldn't help, but laugh his butt off and drop onto to his knee, whenever Sakura turned them down.

She alway's said "No" Or " I'm sorry, but no" or the best ever " I already have a date so no!"

The princess had glared at him for weeks, until last night, when our slow minded Syaoran finally figured out why she turned everyone else down.

Last night when he'd tucked her in (She said she needed someone to make sure she was safe when she went to bed. She should just say she didn't want Syaoran to leave her any sooner than he had to, and get it over with!!) he'd sat on the edge of her bed, and without looking at her asked very quietly

"Sakura? Will you be my date for the ball tomorrow?" Sakura had been so overjoyed that she'd tackled him, which caused them both to fall off the bed.

Not only that, but she'd forced him to stay there the rest of the night. So as the princess wished Syaoran layed there, with his arms wrapped around Sakura, until they both drifted off to sleep.

Present time

Syaoran was still tired from last night, he hadn't been able to sleep very well with the princess in his arms.

So Syaoran was back at his house, and he was going to take a nap before the night's festivities.

He'd been asleep for fifteen minutes when there was a knock on the door. Syaoran opened his eyes and went to go answer the door. At least that's what he'd planned to do.

What he did instead was stant up, get his legs tangled, and fall flat on his face. The knock came again.

Syaoran glared at the floor angrily." Come in!" He shoated and sat up rubbing his sore head.

"Still as clumsy as ever I see!" Laughed a familiar voice. Syaoran looked up to see his two old friends. Fai and Kurogane.

"Now, now! Kuro-puu that's not very nice! Apologize!" Fai said waving a finger in front of Kurogane's face.

Syaoran chuckled alittle at this. "Hey guy's. What's up?" Syaoran said as he stood up brushing himself off.

"We came to see what you were up to, and it is Toya's birthday today isn't it?" Kurogane asked looking as if he was ready to rip of any part of Fai that got in his way.

"Yeah! Mokona was really nice and made them take a break from training!!" Mokona piped up, from it's perch ontop of Fai's head.

"Hm. Well I'm glad that the two of you could make it! You can stay here if you want, but I need to get some sleep, so, I'll be in my room if you need me" Syaoran said and he turned on his heel.

The young warrior was laying on his back, staring up at the ceiling unable to let sleep claim him. He heard the door creak open, and he saw Fai enter the room. Syaoran sat up, as Fai sat on the edge of Syaoran's bed.

Fai smiled," You know there's no need to be nervous. Syaoran-kun, It's as simple as asking me and Kurgi what we're doing in Clow" Fai said laying a hand on Syaoran's shoulder. Syaoran's eyes widened.

"What do you mean? I wasn't going to ask the Princess anything tonight!" Syaoran said nervously blushing, and he put a hand into his pocket.

The magician smirked at him. "Now, now, Syaoran-kun! We both know that you were going to ask the princess to marry you after the ball tonight, when you tucked her in, just before you left the room." Fai spoke softly.

'How did he know what I was thinking!? Or even what I was going to ask Sakura!'

Syaoran looked at Fai and pulled a small black ring box out of his pocket. Fai looked back at him, and smiled.

"How did you know what I was going to ask Sakura? Or even that I was worrying about it?!" Syaoran asked confused.

Fai stood up." What can I say! I guess I'm just gifted like that! Or maybe It's just a mother's instinct!" Fai replied acting all girly, Not that that was anything new or anything.

Both men started to laugh. Fai grew serious again, and knelt infront of Syaoran.

" But honestly. If you love her as much as you think it won't be so hard. Just look her straight in the eyes, "

Fai tried his best to demonstrate, but couldn't do it very well, because he only had one eye.( Syaoran's clone ate it)

" and you let you heart take care of the rest.And if it doesn't feel right, wait! You can always try some other time." Fai said comforting the young boy.

Syaoran started to cry alittle, but brushed the tears away.

"What if she doesn't feel the same way about me? I mean I only saw and felt what my clone did, I was never actually in control of the body, and I wasn't here for her to fall in love with. My clone was." Syaoran looked at the man in front of him, seeking guidance.

"I suppose that you can only try and hope for the best" Fai said, and Syaoran hugged him tightly.

" Thank you Fai. Youv'e alway's been a good friend, and teacher to me. You Kurogane, Mokona, and the Princess are the only friends I've ever had.You guys are my family" Syaoran said shedding a few tears.

Fai smiled and hugged the boy back.After a few minutes, Kurogane came in.

"Hey Kid! If your going to the ball you'd better get ready" The ninja said, and left quickly. Syaoran stood and went to prepare for the ball.

In front of the palace(Fai, Kurogane, and Syaoran)

The three warrior's stood infront of the palace. Fai and Kurogane were dressed in their original outfit's, while Syaoran wore a black suit. On his chest right over his heart was the badge that gave him permission to enter the palace any time he wished.

His jacket was fastened all the way to his neck, like he alway's had it.

They made their way to the gate, and the guard's stopped them. Syaoran sighed, and displayed his badge, and the guard's let them pass.

Syaoran, Fai and Kurogane walked through the halls until they reached the grand ball room, and Syaoran opened the door.

Kurogane went right inside, but Syaoran hesitated. Fai looked at him, and smiled.

"It'll be alright Syao-kun. I'm right here" Fai said comforting the young man, and putting his fears to rest.

Syaoran nodded and the two proceded into the ballroom. Syaoran scanned the room for the princess, but she found him first.

"Syaoran-Kun!!" Sakura Shoated as she knocked Syaoran off him feet, from the force of her hug.

Syaoran steadied himself, and smiled at the princess, that he'd fallen in love with. "Hello princess"

Sakura was wearing a pink and white strapless ball gown, that fitted her perfectly. Syaoran couldn't help but stare at her. She was the most beautiful thing he'd ever seen. He just hoped that she would say yes, when he asked her.

Sakura pouted." I told you to call me Sakura! Not princess!" She said softly but angrily.

"I'm sorry Princess" Syaoran replied.

"You'd think that after three years spent together that you'd finally stop calling me 'princess' but nooo!" Sakura taunted the already petrified boy.

Fai laughed and Sakura turned to him.

"Fai-san!!" Sakura shoated and hugged Fai tight."Hello Sakura-hime" Fai replied happily as he spun her in the air.

Fai set the small princess back on the ground and Sakura stood beside Syaoran.

"How long are you planning on staying?" Sakura asked the blonde.

Fai thought for a moment." Not long at the most a month or two depending on the situation. But if Kur-puu leaves than I have to go with him!...You know," Fai flashed his Vampire fangs at the kids" I can't just starve to death, by not following my source of food"

This made everyone laugh.

Syaoran, Fai, and Sakura heard music starting to play, anf Fai looked at the couple.

" Well I'll leave you two alone for a while!" Fai bowed to the princess, and left to go find Kurogane.

Syaoran turned to Sakura and bowed, holding his hand out to her.

" May I have this dance?" he asked politely, and Sakura took his hand in her's.

"Of course"

Syaoran pulled Sakura close, and placed his hand on her waist, and held her hand in the other.

Sakura smiled, and placed her hand on his shoulder.

Syaoran couldn't help, but love her. In his mind she was perfect. He only wished that he would have been able to spend the time with her,that 'The Clone' had.

As the song slowed down Sakura layed her head on Syaoran's shoulder, and he rested his head on her's. The song ended a few minutes later, but Sakura remained where she was. Sakura looked up at Syaoran, and he looked back, at her.

Syaoran noticed all the eyes on them, and he sepparated himself from the Princess, carefully. She looked around at everyone staring at them, and then at Syaoran, who bowed to her. Sakura was surprised when Syaoran said,

"You'd better go. King Toya will be here any moment, and you need to announce his arrival!" Said Syaoran, as he stood straight again. What he wasn't expecting was for Sakura to grab his hand, and pull him through the crowd.

"What are you doing, Sakura?!" Syaoran shouted at the girl. Sakura looked back at him, and smiled.

"Wow! You really do know my name!" She laughed, and pulled him to the front of the room where the stage was.

" Your my body guard! Your supposed to come with me everywhere. And your my date!! I'm not just going to leave you down there!" Sakura whispered to Syaoran, and she relceiced his hand, and turned to the people.

As she began to adress the crowd, Syaoran slipped his hand into her's and twined their finger's together, which caused her to blush.

"People of Clow! thank you for coming to my brothers birthday ball! I would tell you his age, but I would probalbly get in alot of trouble if I did" Sakura announced, as her brother entered the room, and everyone laughed.

"Well I would prefer to disagree, Princess! Your body guard would not allow you to be put in any harm, not even from your own brother!" Syaoran interupted her, and everyone started whistleing, and chuckling.

Sakura looked at Syaoran,and then at the crowd.

"Well since I have my body guard I might as well tell you! King Toya is turning..." Sakura began

" Ah. ah. ah!" Toya said covering her mouth, and pulling her behind him. "Please ignore my little sister and her annoying body guard!" He said as he pushed Sakura and Syaoran off the stage.

The two teens looked at eachother and laughed.

As soon as Toya had finished with his speech, the music started back up again. Syaoran had managed to sneak away from Sakura while she was busy talking to Yukito, and make it over to where Fai and Kurogane stood. The two men were currently argueing.

"But Kurgi! I'm hungry! It will only take a moment, and I promise no one will see!?" Fai begged

" No! I'm not cutting my arm, and you are SO NOT BITING ME IN THE NECK! Now shut up!!" Kurogane said angrily.

Fai began to potu and noticed Syaoran.

"Hey Syao-kun! Hows it going!?" Fai asked. Syaoran checked his watch, 10:30. Exactly 5 hours till the ball ended. King Toya would probably send both 17 year olds to bed at 12:00 or at the latest 1:00.

Syaoran looked up at Fai in distress, "Fai! I can't do it! I just can't!"Syaoran cried sadly.

Fai knelt down and placed a hand on the boy's shoulder.

" Remember what I told you? It's as easy as asking me what I'm doing? Just look her in the eyes and let your heart take care of the rest!" Fai said trying to help the boy through his problems.

"But! What if she doesn't feel the same way about me?!"Syaoran tried to explain his pain, but wasn't doing a very good job of it.

Kurogane looked at him, "What's this about?!" he asked.

Fai answered before Syaoran could. "Syaoran is going to ask Sakura to marry him tonight. But he feels he can't do it" fai sighed, and stood up.

Kurogane snickered, and looked the boy straight in the eyes.

" Look! If you love her enough to want to marry her...Don't worry about it!! Just...look! I'll give you some pointers, but keep it quiet!Alright!" Kurogane stuttered, and sighed. Syaoran nodded and Kurogane whispered a few thing's into his ear before, Sakura pulled Syaoran away to dance.

Fai scooted closer to Kurogane.

" Do think he can do it?"

"Hmph! If he loves her...He will!"

"So, uh? How about just a small drink?!"

Kurogane made a punch at the Magician, and he jumped back."Get away from me you creepy, gay, vampire!" Fai just laughed.
