Author's Notes: I don't own Card Captor Sakura and some characters are not part of Card Captor Sakura. And the song The Vera's Theme is not owned by me also.
"Hello good evening Tomoyo. Are you okay?" she immediately knows who owns the voice. Her dearest Eriol-kun.
"I-I'm fine". She tried her best not to stammer. "What's up?"
"Nothing much. Just wanna check on you that's why I called".
"Oh…"
"Actually I just wanna ask you…if I'm gonna tell you something important and you found this bad will you hate me?" she was taken aback by the question.
"Something wrong?" she asked worriedly.
"Just answer the question. Nothing's wrong", Eriol replied. She was thinking for a while then replied.
"I will not hate you Eriol-kun no matter what happens…because…I'm you're friend…and I'm here for you…always", Tomoyo replied. Eriol smiled to himself. But he wasn't sure if he'll tell her.
"Thanks…Tomoyo".
"Somebody is thinking about someone. I wonder who it is." Sakura said in a sing-song voice. Probably she's doing it for Eriol coz' he's staring into space.
"My dear Sakura-san if it's me you're talking about I'm not thinking about someone", Eriol replied.
""Why is it you I'm talking about? Did I say something?" lethal glare from the mage. "Sorry!"
"Anyway I'm planning to tell Tomoyo that I'm the member of you know…a so-called-group. But I'm not sure".
"Give it some time Eriol. Don't rush on things", Syaoran advice. Tomoyo had arrived.
"Ohayou gozaimasu minna-san!"
"Ohayou", Sakura and Syaoran said. A few seconds Eriol greeted.
"Ohayou…Tomoyo".
"Hey cous…how come you woke up late today?" Sakura asked. Tomoyo smiled apologetically before replying.
"There's so much to think about last night".
"Like what?" Syaoran added. They saw she was blushing.
"Things".
"Like…?" the two pressed again.
"Guys stop it. If Tomoyo doesn't want to say it let her be", Eriol interrupted. She thanked God of what Eriol did.
"Do you have a practice this afternoon?" Tomoyo asked Eriol. He shook his head.
"No but I'm going to play the piano for a couple of minutes. Want to come with me?" she nodded.
"I want to!" Sakura and Syaoran coughed as Sakura hit Tomoyo's elbow. The raven lass reddened.
"See you this 4p.m.Tomoyo", the reincarnated London boy added.
"Sure! I'll see you in the music room".
It was 4p.m.and Tomoyo excitedly went to the music room. While Sakura and Syaoran planned to go home and leave the two ALONE. And the two advices again to tell Eriol what she feel. But of course they we're not forcing her. They're just excited that they'll be together. But they're just worried what Tomoyo's reaction will be if she knows Eriol is in a fraternity group. Tomoyo heard Eriol was playing The Vera's Theme. She heard it many times still it was beautiful and she didn't grow tired hearing it over and over again. She was at the door and she didn't want to disturbed him. But Eriol knew she had arrived. "Come in Tomoyo". She sighed. She went in.
"Please don't stop playing Eriol-kun. I never grew tired of hearing the song The Vera's Theme", Tomoyo began as she sat down beside him.
"Then I'll play it again…for you", Eriol told her. He closed his eyes and started to play. As if he had memorized the keyboards already. Tomoyo sighed.
'Oh Eriol-kun! If you only knew I've loved you for so long. But I just can't say it! If a time comes I'll say I love you…I hope we can still be friends. Even if you can't love me back'. By this time Eriol was reading her mind. And he stopped playing. He was shocked to know on what is in Tomoyo's mind. "Eriol you okay?"
"I-I'm fine", he replied. Then he said as an alibi. "It's late. I'll take you home".
"Oh…okay then", she said as she stood up as Eriol covered the keyboards. "Are you angry at me?"
"No…Tomoyo I'll never be angry at you. Never". 'I'm afraid you'll be angry at me if you know I'm in a fraternity group'. "Let's go Tomoyo", Eriol added as he grabbed her hand. She blushed.
"O-Okay".
Eriol didn't let go of Tomoyo's hand until they reached her house. She feels secure even though in the other hand she feels awkward. Her secret love one holding her hand. But he holds her hand firmly. And she likes the feeling of it. "We're here".
"Thanks for walking me home Eriol-kun", Tomoyo said. He had finally let go of her hand.
"No problem", Eriol replied as he saluted. She gave a slight laugh. "I'll leave now".
"Bye Eriol take care!" he nodded and he left. But his facial expression changed. His going to the Tomoeda gang hide-out again.
"I'm here", Eriol said as he went in to the Tomoeda gang house. He doesn't sleep there but he just wants to stand by. The gang went to him. And he noticed there are two new members of the gang. "Who are they Fritz?"
"New members of the gang. Jay and Katharine meet Eriol Hiiragizawa", Fritz introduced.
"Hello! He's such a cutie!" Katharine said as he went to him and traced his delicate face.
"Of course he is!" exclaimed Hermione.
"Uh…can I use my room for a while? I'll just rest for a couple of minutes", Eriol favored. Gerard was the one to answer.
"Sure Eriol! Make yourself comfortable!" the mage nodded as he went to his room. Fritz looked at Katharine.
"You can go and play with him".
"Yey!" Katharine said as she immediately went to his room when Ivy added.
"Just seduce him okay? Don't do 'it'!"
"Sure!" Katharine winked then she left. As the other members have an evil smile on their faces.
Eriol went to his room as he threw his bag on the couch. He unties his necktie and sat on the chair. He closed his eyes and picture Tomoyo in his mind. "Tomoyo…"he muttered under his breath. Katharine had arrived and was shocked to hear that Eriol is murmuring a girl's name.
"Who is she Eriol?" Katharine said seductively. Eriol opened his eyes and was shocked to see Katharine.
"What the-"
"Forget her for a while and let's have some fun", Katharine said as she kissed him. He was supposed to push her away but he suddenly felt sleepy…
Eriol woke up the next day and found himself sleeping on the bed. He looked at his side and found Katharine who also woke up. Weird though…they're clothes are still on. "What did you do to me? The hell?!"
"I didn't do anything to you honey", Katharine said with a wink. "I just place a sleeping pill inside your mouth". She sat up on the bed and pats his back…hard! "Don't worry honey your still a virgin!" Eriol blushed.
"Thanks for reminding. And please don't call me honey".
"Why do you have a girlfriend?"
"No".
"Does somebody like you?" by this time Eriol was carrying his backpack.
"Maybe, maybe not. And I don't care if somebody likes me or does not like me".
"One last question". Eriol sighed as he turned to the girl. He was at the door by now. "Do you like somebody?" he was silent for a while. Does he really like somebody?
"Maybe…I don't really know. But I know that she's very important to me…and that I like her as a friend". He went out and then shut the door.
"Master where have you been?!" Nakuru exclaimed as Eriol went into the house. Actually he doesn't have time to explain coz' he's gonna be late for school.
