A Promised Trip to England

The moon and its nightingale
Flashback
It was our break time and Sakura thought of something special for today. She had brought a picnic basket so we could eat together.. the four of us, Sakura-chan, Eriol-kun, Syaoran-kun, and me, Tomoyo Daidouji. The gentle wind really beautifies the surroundings. Sakura sat the usual checkered cloth near a big tree where she placed the picnic basket and started to remove and set the stuff. I gave Syaoran-kun a slight nudge to… you know… Then I tried to rest my back on the tree behind me as I watch Syaoran blush madly every time Sakura gets closer. I then let out a small giggle and then averted my gaze to our blue eyed friend. I realized that he too was watching the genki cherry blossom and his cute little descendant. He then looked at me and then he stood up and walked closer. He sat down beside me then he smiled. It was quiet, the silence was deafening, so I asked a question out of the blue.
"Eriol-kun… could you tell me what England is like?"
"Why d'you ask?"
"Oh nothing I just really wanted to go there…"
She said this with her voice was fading off as she stared blankly into space.
" Tomoyo-chan you're one very rich person you know. You could actually go to England if you ask your mom."
"Yeah… You're probably right… but…"
Silence fell upon them.
"But what Tomoyo-chan"
"N-no…never mind"
End of Flashback
Everybody please fasten your seatbelts for we are about to arrive London airport.
A raven-haired girl was sitting in a section which points out to be for first class citizens. She was asleep. Her long hair flowed freely up to her waist. She wore no make-up yet she looked more beautiful than those who wear it. She was Tomoyo Daidouji. The successor of the Daidouji Company and still single. She held in her hands a snowy white envelope which contains a letter from a childhood friend, Hiiragizawa Eriol. Eriol really liked Tomoyo but was really afraid to tell her due to his busy life of making Sakura change all the Clow Cards into Sakura Cards and being turned down. Now, after so long, he asked her if she would like to visit England. The flight she was on was actually earlier than the original flight ticket that Eriol sent her together with the letter but she wanted to sight see and enjoy the place.
It was nine o'clock in the evening, Tomoyo opened her eyes and noticed that the plane had already landed. She steadily stood up and left the premises. She then got her luggage and left the room. Just as she was about to leave the airport, still quite sleepy from that trip, she didn't notice the person in front of her that she was about to hit.
She slightly hit the man in front of her and she suddenly stopped her tracks. She looked up then apologized. The man looked back. Also did Tomoyo. She noticed that he was somehow taller than her, he wore simply clothes in dark shade of blue. His eyes were in a shade of cerulean which were beautified by his shirt. His hair was also the same but has a navy blue shade to it. He wore no accessories nor glasses. She thought that this person might also be of the same age as her due to his physical features.
The guy just looked at her with an unexplainable look.
" I'm sorry I should've looked where I was going."
" No, It's partly my fault I shouldn't've stood there."
With that sentence he smiled at Tomoyo. There was something in that smile wherein Tomoyo felt a sense of familiarity yet at the same time she felt as like she really didn't know this person.
"May I ask what a fine young lay such as you is doing here?"
Tomoyo didn't answer she was still somehow analyzing the smile earlier.
"I'm sorry I think I should've introduced myself first. I'm Eli Moon. You call me Eli."
She then looked at him and asked herself "I can't be him… could it?"
" I'm Tomoyo, Tomoyo Daidouji"
" You're Japanese?"
" Yes"
"Wow, you know I'm half Japanese."
"Hontou ni?"
"Yeah, Want me to help you with your luggage? By the way I won't take no for an answer."
"Why not?"
"Because it's a sin to make a very beautiful lady carry such stuff."
And with that Eli got most of her things and they rode a cab to a five star luxury hotel where Tomoyo would be staying for her trip. In the cab Eli started to ask her a question.
"So what brings you here to London, to visit the Queen I suppose?"
"No silly, my friend invited me here."
"May I know the name of that friend of yours?"
"His name is Eriol."
And with that sentence she shifted her gaze towards the evening streets of London, England. She looked outside the window in deep thought.
"Okay"
When they got there Eli went out of the vehicle and opened the door for her. He looked at her then asked.
"Hey Tomoyo, are you available tomorrow?"
"Nani?"
"I'd like you to show you my place and I want to talk to you"
"Sure, what time?"
"Are you available the whole day?"
" I'm sorry but I have to visit my friend, the one who sent me the ticket?"
"Is it really that important coz you know you could visit him the day after next?"
"Yeah, it's important… very important"
"Okay so I'll just meet you here tomorrow at around… let's say… 6 am"
"B-but…"
"Okay then all set, ja ne Tomoyo-chan"
And with that Tomoyo's new found friend Eli left. She sighed then smiled at the fact that she had easily made friends with other people. She left the spot she stayed at then walked towards the front desk and asked for assistance, at the same time she also got a room. The room she picket was not luxurious but not that bad either. She placed her luggage in one corner and hit the sack. The moment she closed her eyes she fell asleep. A very deep sleep.
knock knock knock
Consecutive knocks were to be heard, persistent. In the room where the knocks on the door was the sleeping figure of Tomoyo Daidouji that is soon to be awakened…
"Coming…"
She stood up groggily and then went towards the door and opened it and yawned.
"Good morning sleeping beauty, how's your beauty sleep?"
"What are you doing here Eli? raises eyebrow "
"Oh come on Tomoyo don't tell me you forgot. sweat drops "
"W-what… what time is it already?"
"It's already… looking at his watch… 8 AM"
Tomoyo then stops yawning from shock considering the fact that he had been waiting for her for almost two hours. She then rushes back inside leaving the door open to get her clothes, take a bath then change, brush her teeth and everything in 15 minutes, a record time.
"Wow that was fast."
With that Tomoyo dragged him out of her room and went to the lobby. Eli then pointed out something. Tomoyo saw two bikes parked neatly at the side.
"We'll be riding that only if you know how."
" Of course I do you BAKA!"
She went towards the bike, not waiting for Eli, grabbed a helmet and rode off. He smiled and said.
"Oi! Matte!"
Rushing to get the other bike and go catch her, but before he reached her a loud crash was heard…
