CHAPTER 9: "Out of the Blue "
When their lips almost divulge, Eriol took a glimpse of Tomoyo's affectionate orbs. He thought to himself:
"I've never had the chance
To kiss your beautiful lips
To hold you tight all day
To run my fingers through your
hair
Or talk to you till the sun comes
up
My mind says this won't be so
But my heart knows different
Someday I will do these wonderful
things
And never let you go
No matter how long it takes
No matter how many tears it makes
I will see you
Kiss you
And hold you
Until the end of time"
Tomoyo positioned herself to give her knight in shinning armor, her token of appreciation. She didn't mind the shouting crowd like crazy. And out of the blue…
--KAPOW--
She punched Eriol and told him with her eyes full of rage, "Don't you dare toy with me."
"Yes!" Anteros leaped with joy while Cupid full of sorrow cried.
"How dare she hurt our dear Eriol-sama!" one PEU gay said while closing his fist.
"We must tell Sumire-chan and the others about this." A PEU girl beside her said.
Meanwhile, Tomoyo walked as fast as she could to get out of the crowd and think of something to cancel her application for the contest.
Eriol was shocked of her sudden reaction but still he ran after her. When there was no one out of sight, he teased hoping that Tomoyo is not really mad at him. "Is this your way of playing HARD-TO-GET? You know, I never back down challenges."
Tomoyo stopped and asked, "How can you be like this eventhough we're in this situation? Why'd you always annoy me? How can you be so carefree? Why do you bother me and make my life like hell? Why do these things have to happen? What have I done to deserve this? Why?! Tell me!"
She was really upset that tears fell down on her cheeks, making Eriol feel sorry and in pain. He went closer to her but she pushed him back and ran away.
Li and Sakura, the only two persons who happen to saw the event were really worried. Li punched Eriol, "What'd you do to her? You bastard! How dare you make her cry!"
Sakura trying to calm Li asked him again, "What did you do to Tomoyo-chan?" When Li had already calmed, Sakura thought of Tomoyo's sad expression, which made her upset. She tried to attack but luckily Li was able to stop her.
"I guess I was reall a jerk awhile ago for acting very childish. Thanks for the punch because I really deserved it." Eriol then stated the whole story hoping that they could help him with his problem.

After classes were over, Tomoyo immediately went home without Eriol. On her way, she pondered of things that happened with in the long day. "Why'd he have to be like that? Does he know that because of him I'm caught in this damn situation?" She sighed.
"Excuse me. But you did you happen to forget that you just made an awful thing at him in front of a crowd. Because you're so self-centered, you didn't mind his feelings. You just put him into shame! Do you know what that means?" Cupid scolded.
"You don't have to feel bad my dear Tomoyo. You know that he deserved it more that anyone." Anteros corrected.
"But I can't deny the fact I really hurt him." Tomoyo sadly stated.
When she arrived home, she immediately went to her room to reflect and face the image in the mirror "I hope I wasn't too harsh on him. Now look what you've done Tomoyo. You're so HARD-TO-GET, emotional and childish. I bet he already hates you!" She paused and continued, "I hate to admit it but I really feel weak because of him. Everytime he stares at me, it makes me melt but it's odd since I really liked the way he stares at me." She looked down and pondered again the sad event.
"Admit it! You liked him!" Cupid urged while Anteros sighed seeing that her mistress is in distress.
She faced again her image and began to sing in front of the mirror.
-----Tomoyo singing-----
I don't know what it is that
you've done to me
But it's caused me to act in such a crazy
way
Whatever it is that you do when you do what you're doing
It's
a feeling that I want to stay
'Coz my heart starts beating triple
time
With thoughts of lovin' you on my mind
I can't figure out
just what to do
When the cause and cure is you, you
I get
so weak in the knees
I can hardly speak, I lose all control
Then
somethin' takes over me
In a daze, your love's so amazing
It's
not a phase
I want you to stay with me, by my side
I swallow my
pride
Your love is so sweet, it knocks me right off of my
feet
Can't explain why your lovin' makes me weak
Time after
time after time I've tried to fight it
But your love is strong, it
keeps on holdin' on
Resistance is down when you're around, pride's
fading
In my condition I don't want to be alone
'Coz my heart
starts beating triple time
With thoughts of lovin' you on my
mind
I can't figure out just what to do
When the cause and cure
is you, youI get so weak in the knees
I can hardly speak,
I lose all control
Then somethin' takes over me
In a daze, your
love's so amazing
It's not a phase
I want you to stay with me,
by my side
I swallow my pride
Your love is so sweet, it knocks
me right off of my feet
Can't explain why your lovin' makes me
weak
I've tried hard to fight
it
No way can I deny it
Your love's so sweet
It knocks me
off my feet
I get so weak in the knees
I
can hardly speak, I lose all control
Then somethin' takes over
me
In a daze, your love's so amazing
It's not a phase
I want
you to stay with me, by my side
I swallow my pride
Your love is
so sweet, it knocks me right off of my feet
Can't explain why your
lovin' makes me weakI get so weak
Blood starts racing
through my veins
I get so weak
Boy it's somethin' I can't
explain
I get so weak
Somethin' 'bout the way you do the things
you're do-oo-oo-in'
Knocks me right off of my feet (off my
feet)
Can't explain why your lovin' makes me weak.
Meanwhile Eriol who was ditched by Tomoyo, arrived minutes after Tomoyo arrived. Like Tomoyo, he also immediately went to his room to ponder the unwanted events that took place. "Emotions sometimes cause us to be angry at a situation. Our mind causes us to be angry with others and release our despair." He breathed deeply and continued, "Stupid Eriol! Because of your childish acts, you made her cry due to anger. Now I'm really depressed. Why am I so hurt everytime I imagine or see her in pain? Am I in love with her? I guess I'm having a nightmare." He hit the bed and pondered these things:
"What is this feeling I have?
I seem to be falling in love with
you.
But other times I seem to loathe
you
I can't be with you
Or maybe just without anyone
I think about you all the time
But why do I have this feeling?"
I long for your voice
And I would die to hear you laugh
But is this really love
Or merely lust?"
He sighed again "I can't be in love with her. She is not the one I'm looking for. But still my conscience cannot be settled. I have to make peace with her before it's too late.

Author's Notes: So what do you think? Please I really need your reviews. Onegai! Anyways I'm really down right now and I'm really in the state of imbroglio so I really need the reviews badly. One day to go. It's my birthday already! Yata! Althought I'm not really excited about the party and so coz I'm focusing most of my time in this story. To be honest, I really want to finish this badly because it's been quite awhile that I have done something completed since classes are over and I just spent it at home writing this story. Check out the next chappie because I was surprised when I finished making that chappie. All I need to do is encode it. Ja ne Xiexie.. Remember to expect the unexpected from me.
