Special Strength
Eriol's Crush
As I drank my cold Coke in the Cafe, I saw Eriol's eyes wander to the counter. I follow his gaze and it stops at
this girl. Eriol and I already know this girl but Eriol has somewhat a crush on her. The girl's name is
Tomoyo Daidouji and she's Sakura best friend. I decide that it's Eriol teasing time.
"Hey, Hiiragizawa, what you looking at?" I snicker. Eriol snaps up quickly and turns around to look
me in the eye.
"Oh, n-n-nothing!" He stammers. I smirk.
"Hmmm...is that Tomoyo over there?" I slowly say. Eriol sweatdrops.
"Oh yeah! I think so!" he says. I can't believe he takes me for such an idiot. But right now, I'm
getting kicks, so I don't mind.
"Is that what you were looking at?" I taunt.
"N-n-n-No!" He stammers again. Did I mention Eriol is probably the worst liar on the face of the
Earth? I think you knew that already. I ignore him.
"Hey Tomoyo!" I call to her. "Over here!"
"Li-kun, what HELL are you doing?!?" Eriol hisses. I have this urge to burst out laghing in his
face.
Tomoyo, turns around, surprised, but the surprise changes to a smile as she notices us at the table.
"Hey guys!" She called to us. Eriol blushed beet red.
"Hi Tomoyo..." he muttered. I chuckled. It's been a long time since I've seen Eriol blush like this.
The first time was when he first met Tomoyo. His face looked like the sun!
Tomoyo came over to our table and sat down next to Eriol. Eriol blushed even redder. Tomoyo
didn't notice.
"So, what are you doing here so early?" She asked.
"Oh, Eriol offered to buy me some food after my short soccer practice, so I tagged along," I said.
"What are you doing here, Tomoyo?"
"Didn't I tell you?" Eriol and I shook our heads. "I work here!" Tomoyo exclaimed. Right now, I
could tell exactly what Eriol was thinking. He was going to come to this Cafe every morning. I snickered
at the thought. Tomoyo and Eriol both noticed.
"What's so funny, Li-kun?" Tomoyo asked. I had to supress my laughter down.
"Oh, it's nothing. Just some joke that Eriol told me on the way here," I said. Tomoyo relaxed.
Eriol was blushing still. "By the way, congratulations on getting a job here." Tomoyo grinned.
"Hmmm...sorry I can't stay here and chat, but I gotta get paid," she said, and waved good-bye to us.
We nodded to her.
"Hey Eriol...I shoulda asked Tomoyo for her video camera. From where I was sitting, you were so
red that I thought your head was on fire or something!" I laughed. Eriol didn't. His blush went away, and it
was replaced by a frown.
"Shut up. Li-kun. That wasn't funny. Now you gotta pay for your own food," he said. I stopped
laughing.
"Ok, ok, Eriol, sorry. Just getting kicks," I said. Eriol relaxed and soon was joking again.
As we were ready to leave, Eriol said, "Li-kun, you're not getting away with your move this easy,
pay for yourself." Damn. Why the hell can't I just get a free breakfast just once?
We were walking by the park when I looked at my watch. 8:30. Still too early to go to Sakura's
house. And with Eriol tagging along, with intentions to pay me back for embarrassing him in the Cafe, I
wasn't too eager.
A bunch of the soccer team cheerleaders walked to the field to practice their routines. I knew
Sakura would be joining them at about 10.
"Hey, Eriol, hide!" I hissed to him.
"What for?" he gave me a blank stare.
"Eriol, I'm telling you, just do it!" Eriol finally hid behind the penguin slide.
About 2 minutes later, we got out from our hiding spots.
"What was that all about, Li-kun?" Eriol asked.
"Uhhh....didn't you see the soccer fan club?" I said.
"Oh shit. Thanks, Syaoran. I don't wanna be chased right now..." Eriol thanked me.
You see, our soccer fan club is very obsessive. Since Eriol and I are the best players on the team,
every girl in school knows us. The soccer cheerleaders are obsessed with us. They call us at night, put
posters up on building advertising their love for us, tell everyone they could about us, etc. I mean, yeah,
I'm not complaining about the attention, I just love 1 girl. If you don't know yet, you are an idiot. But just
in case let me tell you. It's Sakura. Eriol's reason is Tomoyo. We decided before that we would only be
with those girls and no one else. Well, at least, Eriol said, until we know for sure we don't have a chance
with them. But when he said it, I knew that both of us would never stop loving those 2 girls. Neither of us
believed what he said.
"Don't mention it, Eriol-kun," I said. Even I felt sorry for Eriol when the girls chased him. See,
for some strange reason, those girls like Eriol over me...oh well, I'll live. Eriol doesn't enjoy that attention
though.
"Hey, you wanna come to my mansion for a few hours until your DARLING Sakura wakes up?"
Eriol asked, his eyes getting that sparkling glint. Eriol particularly emphasized the words 'mansion' and
'DARLING'. I can see what he means by mansion, since his house is probably the biggest in the world.
How he got it is beyond me. But still, he brags about it just too much. The word 'darling' also got me mad.
I wish she was, but Eriol just keeps saying it like it's something to play with.
"Fine, Hiiragizawa, I'll come but just a little warning," I said. Eriol raised his eyebrows in
confusion. "If you ever emphasize either the word 'mansion' or the word 'darling' when you're speaking of
Sakura, I'll go over there, and break your face."
