Author's Note: I don't own Card Captor Sakura.

Sakura, Tomoyo, Syaoran and Eriol we're a band actually. Sakura plays the violin, Syaoran plays the electric guitar, Eriol plays the piano and Tomoyo is the vocalist. They are in third year high school actually. Eriol went back to Japan when he was in first year. But he had to leave again coz' he'll study in England when he will be in fourth year high school. Although he doesn't know when he will come back. Tomoyo didn't react on the news. Why? It was a secret that she loved him so much. He made her realized that her love for Sakura were only like a sister. He was there to comfort her. And since then on they we're close. Eriol on the other hand told her about Kaho that they we're just friends and no particular relationship. They formed a band when they we're in first year. They present every time that there will be an occasion. And of course Tomoyo and the gang had to think of a song for that. And the JS Prom is held after two days. The juniors and seniors we're excited. As the gang we're eating their lunch in the canteen they also thought about a song. "But what song?" Sakura was about to fumed. They we're thinking a good song in the JS Prom which will be held in the school grounds. Actually the juniors prom will be held in the school grounds while the senior's prom in the big gym.

"I know how about a song also dedicated to Eriol?" Syaoran suggested.

"Me?" Eriol said, looking up.

"Yeah! A song dedicated for the juniors and a song dedicated for Eriol roll into one!" Syaoran's girlfriend exclaimed.

"But Sakura what song shall we play?" Tomoyo asked.

"Hmn..."the card mistress thought, tilting her head. "I can't decide Tomoyo! You decide!"

"Me?" Tomoyo nearly was taken aback. "Okay um...wait for a second", she told them as she was thinking for a song. 'A song dedicated to the juniors and for Eriol since his leaving. Nevertheless I never told him my feelings. But I want to express my feelings through a song even though he'll not know. What could it be? Hmn...'Tomoyo thought deeply.

"Tomoyo have you thought about a song?" Eriol asked who is beside her.

"Yes but Eriol could Yamazaki take your place in the concert?" Tomoyo favored.

"Huh? Why?

"Since it is also dedicated to you just listen to the song and Yamazaki will play the piano. Is it okay?" she asked.

"Okay but what is the title of the song?" Eriol asked.

"That's a secret!" she answered.

"Aw man!" he said. "You got me again with your tricks Tomoyo". The four of them laughed. But happiness didn't reach Tomoyo's eyes. And Sakura and Syaoran noticed that. But Eriol was so dense to see that.

~*~*~*~*~

"Hey Yamazaki!" Tomoyo greeted.

"Oh hi Tomoyo! What's up?" Yamazaki greeted back.

"Well since this Thursday will be the JS Prom we decided to dedicate the song to the juniors and to Eriol coz' he'll be leaving for England. So we want you to take his place for now. Coz' I want him to listen to the song. Please Yamazaki?" Tomoyo favored, clasping her hands in a prayer.

"Well..."Yamazaki stammered. Then finally decided. "All right Tomoyo. Call me anytime if we will practice the song".

"You bet", she said as she gave a wink then walked away.

In their last subject in the afternoon Tomoyo's class have no teacher so some of the students we're jut chatting. She was so tired of thinking of a song. She stretched her arms and put her hands behind her back. She didn't notice her pen was at the floor already. Somebody bend down to pick it up, she saw it in the corner of her eye. And that someone handed her pen. "Tomoyo you drop your pen".

"Thanks Eriol", Tomoyo said as she took it. Eriol sat beside her which it was a vacant seat.

"So how's the song coming?" Eriol asked. She didn't look at him when she answered.

"Well I'm still thinking about it". Then slowly her amethyst eyes looked at him. "If you'll leave us we won't have a pianist anymore". He reached for her hand at the table.

"You can always replace me", he suggest. She shook her head.

"No...we'll never replace you. Maybe just substitute you", she replied. Although she really wanted to tell her feelings to him she keeps it for herself. He'll never feel the same way...never. Then an idea had on her mind. "I thought about a song already!" Tomoyo cheered as her eyes lit up.

"Really? What's the title?" Eriol asked, very excited.

"Longing", she replied. "It's not a popular song but it'll fit. Actually it's a sad love song".

"Why sad?" the next question came.

"Because...because..."she was stammering on her words as she looked at him again. Then he looked at her eyes. What did he see in her eyes again? Love? Or was he just mistaken about it? Then what did he saw? "Never mind. Never mind of what I told you", she was about to stand up and went to Sakura but he hold her wrist.

"Wait Tomoyo! Before you leave answer the question. Please", he begged. She wanted to cry right then and there even though she hadn't told him yet. But she wanted to be strong in his eyes.

"Want to know my biggest secret of all Eriol which you're the only one who doesn't know?" her voice was soft and low and he was so curios about what she's going to say. "I love you...that's all!" he was shocked as he released her. He loves her...and he didn't even know.

'Shoot! I was so dense!' Eriol thought, as he run his fingers to his soft blue hair angrily. 'I've got to ask Sakura about this'.

~*~*~*~*~

Sakura and Syaoran know already that Tomoyo told her feelings to Eriol. But that didn't made their cheerful songbird sad. Well she told the two that if she'll tell her feelings to the reincarnation Clow Reed, sadness won't get in the way. They we're walking together home that day around 5:30p.m. They've practiced the song that they'll present in Thursday. But Eriol was prohibited to watch coz' it was a surprise. So he waited for his friends until 5:30p.m. And now they're walking in the streets but the tension is in the air. Tomoyo and Eriol always walk side by side but now Tomoyo walked beside Sakura. Until they have to cross paths. "So...um...guys see you tomorrow!" Sakura said, but her voice was trembling.

"Bye guys! See you tomorrow!" Tomoyo said as she strode off.

"I need to go now Sakura and Syaoran", Eriol said.

"Eriol I'll call you tonight", Sakura told him. He glanced over his shoulder and nod.

"Do you think they're fighting?" Syaoran asked Sakura.

"No I don't think so", the card mistress replied. "They just misunderstood themselves". Syaoran agreed to that.

~*~*~*~*~

Eriol heard the telephone ringing. But it seems Nakuru is not answering it. So he answered it himself. "Hello good evening?"

"Hello good evening Eriol-kun!" it was the cheerful Sakura.

"Hey Sakura! So what is it?"

"Eriol-kun are you angry about Tomoyo-san?"

"No. I mean I'm not angry she confessed. I didn't dumped her or whatsoever. I was flattered really that she loves me. I...I was dense that's all!" he explained, but he was blushing.

"Eriol do you love her aside being a friend?" her next question came.

"No Sakura-san. I'm not sure. I'm just thinking about what she said. I'm confused really. Tell her Sakura-san I'll think about it. I hope she could wait for my answer", he replied.

"Actually your answer didn't connect to my question", she said as she gave a slight laugh.

"Oh sorry", he said, laughing along. "I think I was thinking of something. Shoot! Your best friend and second degree cousin sure made me insane! Okay repeat the question again", he said. Sakura tried to regain her composure as she tried to stop her laughing.

"Okay my question is sir", Eriol chuckled on that. "Is do you love miss Tomoyo Daidouji aside from a friend?"

"Nice question. I'm back in my old self again. And the answer is I don't know...I don't know", Eriol's voice was low and he is so confused. For why he never knew Tomoyo loved him. Not because he was dense but yeah he was dense, but he should have seen it coming. Sakura sighed.
