Hiiragizawa Eriol couldn't believe his eyes. Only one thought ran through his mind as he re-read the elegant white card over and over again, his eyes following every gold-printed word. His brilliant sapphire eyes scanned the page, every letter, every mark, searching for some kind of sign that it wasn't real. Praying and hoping with every fiber of his being that it wasn't. Maybe he was dreaming...or Ruby put too much sugar in his tea and he was hallucinating. But he wasn't.
No. This can't be.
Suddenly, everything but the invitation, that dreaded thing, was all that was visible to him. The only sound was the trembling the card in his hands and the rising beat of his heart. He didn't even realize he was holding a breath.
How could this happen to me?, he thought. How could this have escaped my knowledge? I finally feel worthy of her, of asking her, and it was taken away from me!
It was only when Akizuki Nakuru snatched the monstrous object from his hands that Eriol regained contact with the rest of the world. He inhaled fresh, sweet air, as he exhaled the breath he did not realize he had been holding. He stopped his trembling hands but could do nothing to steady that frantic beating of his heart.
"Oh!" the 25 year old woman exclaimed. "Daidouji-san is getting married? How kawaii!" she turned to her master, completely unaware of his current state. "Should I call, or-" the bubbly brunette stopped talking when she felt -and practically saw- a dark aura surrounding the entire room, emanating from Hiiragizawa Eriol himself.
"We are not going, Nakuru." he calmly told her. And that calmness was exactly what was wrong. He was too calm. It was as if he was a hollow statue with the face of a perfectly calm angel, but the inside was filled with the evilest demons from the depths of Tartarus.
Too paralyzed by her Master's stoic gaze, Nakuru managed a small bow and retreated out of the living room and into her own, where she hid under the covers of her soft, queen-sized bed, trying to make herself forget what she had just witnessed minutes ago.
Back downstairs, Eriol sighed. I must do what is best. After thinking of every possible scenario, some more like fantasies than others, he decided on two things.
1.) He'd missed his chance. All the magic in the world couldn't help him. Not even a thousand love songs or the perfect tune and rhyme could help him now.
2.) He will leave Daidouji Tomoyo's life tomorrow. For good.
Okay, this will not be life 'Welcome to my Life', I will not neglect it. Also, this is just a short and sweet 4-5 chapter fanfic about Tomoyo and Eriol based on the song 'If I Told You' from The Wedding Singer the Musical.
This also my first Tomoyo/Eriol since WtmL, so be nice. I have tried to write chapter four, but nothing came out, so I hope you guys out there would understand.
Please review, and I'll continue!
