I'm Just a Girl
A fanfiction, in response to Click 5's song Just the Girl
Author: skyress
Characters: Tomoyo and Eriol
――――
She's
cold and she's cruel
But she knows what she's doin'.
She
pushed me in the pool
At our last school reunion.
She laughs at
my dreams
But I dream about her laughter.
Strange at it
seems,
She's the one I'm after.
"Oh come on Tomoyo! Can't we at least be friends?" Eriol Hiiragizawa teased Tomoyo Daidouji.
"No way Hiiragizawa!" Tomoyo yelled at Eriol then stuck her tongue at him.
Eriol, for those who don't know, likes Tomoyo so much but he can't express what he feels. Tomoyo thinks that he hates her so much that's why he loves teasing her.
"Don't you care about my feelings? Hahaha!" He is serious deep inside but he keeps on laughing which makes it look like he's joking her.
"Get lost!!!" She screamed as she strode away.
That night…
Tomoyo received a text message from Eriol.
Good
evening, my love! Have you eaten your dinner?
―Eriol
Tomoyo was taken by surprise and immediately replied his message.
Ew!
Will you stop calling me your love? Cause I'm not and I never will
be!
―Tomoyo
Eriol read the message and felt like a knife stab his heart. He tried to make up with Tomoyo.
Oh
come on Tomoyo. I was just joking. You are soooo taking things
seriously. Try to laugh sometimes, why don't you.
―Eriol
Tomoyo felt guilty since he likes Eriol more than he knows.
Whatever…
I'll go to sleep now.
―Tomoyo
Sleep
tight… I love you. Very much.
―Eriol
Tomoyo blushed furiously when she read that message but she regarded it as one of Eriol's jokes.
Cause
she's bittersweet,
She knocks me off of my feet.
And I can't
help myself,
I don't want anyone else.
She's a
mystery,
She's too much for me,
But I keep coming back for
more.
She's just the girl I'm looking for.
Tomoyo arrived a bit late than she usually does. She hadn't had enough sleep last night after Eriol's last message. She was nearing their classroom when she heard no noise coming from inside. She rushed for she thought that their teacher was there already.
She found no sign of the teacher or any of her classmates. She proceeded to her seat then she found a huge bouquet of lilies in her desk. She looked at the flowers and found a card.
Tomoyo,
By the time you are reading this, I might have gone away. Still, I will miss you and you will forever be in my heart. Goodbye, I LOVE YOU.
Eriol
Tomoyo remembered today was Eriol's flight to America. That must also be the reason why all her classmates were gone.
She ran outside, she ran as fast as she could towards the airport. She saw a biker stopping for a drink. She ran away with the bike but left more than enough money for the bike. She cycled as fast as she can to reach Eriol in time.
She arrived at the airport ten minutes after. At the entrance, she saw all her classmates, and even her teacher, waving at a plane. Her tears fell as she slumped on the ground. How could she be so stupid? All this time she thought that it was his joke, saying he loves her.
Sakura noticed her best friend crying. She smiled mischievously to herself and approached Tomoyo looking very sad.
"Tomoyo, I know it's hard for you but you have to be happy right now."
"How can I be happy if the one that I love left me?" she said while tears pour down her face.
"So, you do love Eriol?"
"More than he knows…"she said, sobbing.
"And I love you too…" a sweet voice said behind Tomoyo.
She turned around and found the man of her dreams, her sweetest desire, her Eriol.
She's just the girl I'm looking for…
