A Prince for a Price
Like all wealthy families, the Daidouji family has a secret for their success and fortune. But the secret has been suddenly revealed during the heiress'18th birthday when she was taken away by a group of men as part of a certain deal: to give the Hiiragizawa clan the next generation heir.
Chapter 10
Just Go With It
Tomoyo's eyes slowly opened as she woke up from her slumber. She rubbed her eyes and sat up, stretching her arms a bit after giving a satisfied groan. She suddenly heard a low growl from below, obviously from her stomach signalling her hunger at the moment.
"Time for breakfast then,"
The heiress pulled the covers away from her as she looked at her bedside clock to look at the time.
"Eh! It's already 12:23!" She shrieked, but then suddenly remembered. "Wait, what am I so worried about? It's not like I have something important to do anyway. But it is quite unusual for Sayo or anyone else to not wake me up for breakfast." She blinked but then shrugged it off.
A smile then formed on her lips as she remembered the happenings of last night, and just this early morning. She already got to sleep past 4am after Eriol and her midnight rendezvous in the kitchen. Her shoulders shook as she giggled, remembering how she almost killed him with a knife from hiding behind the food closet.
She walked towards the bathroom and did her usual routines before going downstairs and probably have a chat with Nakuru, if she's here that is.
The Daidouji heiress walked down the big stairs in the mansion and proceeded to the dining hall. It was time for lunch so someone should probably be there, right?
"Ah! Tomoyo, good morning!" Nakuru greeted as Tomoyo sat down to her usual seat.
"Good morning," she greeted back. She looked around and saw that there was still one more person missing in the hall. "Um…"
"If you're looking for Eriol, he left early again this morning. I was looking for him too but Mori told me he went to the office early again due to some presentations or something," the brunette explained as she took a bite of her food. Tomoyo's food arrived just in time she sat and took a sip of her orange juice.
"I see…" she said, realizing that maybe Eriol never had the chance to sleep after their encounter last night if he left early just like Nakuru said. Poor guy.
"So, how was the ball last night?" and Tomoyo almost choked on her drink, suddenly remembering their little dance that ended very well might I add. This reaction however, didn't go unnoticed to the brunette as her eyes reflected teasing tones. "Hm, based on your reaction, I think you had a great time, right?"
Tomoyo just blushed and ate her food in peace, thinking on how she would answer Nakuru's questions right now. Oh if only Eriol were here, he would be able to pacify her and eventually stop her from asking such humiliating questions.
Nakuru just threw her a grin and took a bite of her food again. "It's okay if you don't tell me Tomoyo," she munched. "It's not like I don't already know anyway." she added mumbling which the heiress didn't quite hear.
"Pardon?" Tomoyo's ears perked. Did she just say what I think she said? And her cheeks turned red even more.
Her companion just shook her head and proceeded eating.
"Uh, Nakuru?" Tomoyo called.
The brunette raised her head and said, "Yes?"
"Is it possible to contact Eriol right now? I just need to ask him about something."
Nakuru nodded. "Yeah of course, let's have Sayo bring the phone and call him now. He should be free around this hour for his lunch break too." She said and then called for the maid to fetch the phone. "Thank you Sayo!" she added when Sayo arrived at the hall and gave her the phone. She then dialled Eriol's office number and waited for it to be answered.
While it was ringing, she quickly tossed the cordless phone to Tomoyo's hands.
"Hey, why?" Tomoyo asked at the sudden toss.
"It's better if you be the one to call him. I hate his secretary and Eriol usually ignore my calls saying it was irrelevant or something, that damn bastard." She whined and gobbled down her food. "Hey, put it on speakerphone then. I'd like to hear his reaction."
Tomoyo did as she was told and put it on speakerphone. The ringing of the phone continued until it was answered by a lady with a soft, yet strict voice. "Hello, this is Eriol Hiiragizawa's line. How may I help you?" The heiress threw Nakuru a look as to how she should respond but the latter just urged her to be natural and look for Eriol.
"Uh yes, may I speak to Eriol please," Tomoyo answered.
"I'm sorry but Mr. Eriol is currently busy right now and have asked me to not give him calls at the moment, but you may leave your name and message and I'll be sure to transfer it to him later." the strict voice from the other line said.
"Annoying voice, what'd I tell you," Nakuru rolled her eyes. "Tell her it's urgent," she urged Tomoyo.
"But she said Eriol doesn't want to be disturbed right now," she whispered back.
"I'm sure he'll accept it once he knows it's you." The brunette winked while the other just bit her lip and did as she was told.
Tomoyo was about to respond until they heard Eriol's voice from the background. "Who just called?" he asked.
"The lady hasn't given me her name yet hold on," the secretary responded and went back to the phone. "Yes, may I know who's speaking?"
Tomoyo threw her companion a look again while Nakuru just convinced her to continue with her eyes and fork wave. "Could you please tell him Tomoyo Daidouji has called," she breathed.
"One moment please," the secretary said and they heard a few ruffles and said to Eriol, "it's a lady name Tomoyo Daidouji. Would you like to—"
"Transfer the call to my phone now!" and they heard a bang of door afterwards, most likely it was Eriol shutting the door of his office and in a rush obviously.
The secretary from the other line could only sweatdrop and nodded. "Yes Ms. Daidouji, you'll be transferred to Mr. Eriol's phone right away." and a beeping sound was heard followed by Eriol's husky voice.
Nakuru winked at Tomoyo saying how it was successful.
"Hi baby!"
And then of course, Nakuru's laughs suddenly filled across the dining hall and apparently, Eriol heard it as well. Tomoyo, on the other hand, blushed after realizing that Eriol and she would be in such nickname terms if they were speaking thru phones.
"Nakuru…" Eriol's threatening voice was suddenly heard as it replaced the cheery one before.
But Nakuru continued to be in a fit of giggles, trying desperately to answer her cousin. "I'm sorry…Haha! I never knew…haha!...that you and Tomoyo…hahahaha…were in already such terms! That was the first time I heard you talk like that, my cute little cousin! HAHAHA." and her laugh just continued to echo across the hall.
Tomoyo could only sweatdrop at the scene but then gave out a sigh. She could just picture how Eriol's looking right now but she needed to ask him something already.
"That's so mean of you, Nakuru! Using Tomoyo's name just to call me and tease me? You're really insane!" was what they heard from the other line.
"No, no! Tomoyo really wanted to call you and ask you something!" the brunette defended, taking a break from the huge laugh she just had.
The heiress just gave out a giggle but then finally responded with a melodious voice, "Hello Eriol?"
"Hey," they heard him say.
"I'm really sorry about Nakuru but I just want to ask you something," she said.
"It's alright. What is it then?"
"Um, is it alright if I go meet Sakura somewhere? I just miss her so much already and I haven't apologized to her yet on what happened the last time we met."
A pause.
Tomoyo crossed her fingers in the hope of him allowing her. She knew he wouldn't allow her to go easily and possible conditions have already crossed her mind. But, it's already their wedding tomorrow and what better way to shoo away anxious feelings than spending a day with your best friend?
It was awhile before Eriol finally responded and when he did, his voice had a more serious tone that just a while ago.
"Okay, but…"
And she expected that 'but'.
"It should only be in the coffee shop or in the mall. I hope you understand that." Eriol said.
Tomoyo nodded. "I understand."
"Good, please pass the phone now to Nakuru. I need to tell her some instructions." Tomoyo turned it off on speakerphone and got it back to handset mode and passed the phone to Nakuru who was currently munching on her meat.
"Yes, it's Nakuru," she responded.
The heiress continued to eat all the while watching Nakuru converse with Eriol on the phone. She couldn't hear what they're talking about now since it was now reverted to handset mode so all she could see was Nakuru's constant nodding and 'okay' and little glances towards her.
Nakuru looks so much mature now. Tomoyo observed. Currently, the tall brunette had a serious face on that she usually puts when it's about business or something very important. She liked this personality of hers: Nakuru knew when to be serious and when to be happy-go-lucky.
Hiiragizawas really train their people to become professionals, huh?
Nakuru finally ended the conversation and hung up. She smiled at the heiress across her and finally said, "I'm sorry Tomoyo, but I hope you be a good girl and just follow our conditions, okay?"
Tomoyo's face lit up as she nodded. "Thank you! I'm really happy you allowed me to go!" She suddenly felt excitement rush through her body with the thoughts of seeing her best friend once again.
"Okay, meet me in the living room in 15 minutes. I'll just pass on to you Eriol's instructions there."
Tomoyo sat on the couch in the living room. She just then realized that she hasn't entered this part of the mansion yet, the whole time she was here. The rooms she has just been were her designated room, the dining hall, the grand hall, Eriol's office room and by accident, Eriol's room. Her eyes scanned the whole room and noticed it has a big, spacious area where people can really come and enjoy a time together.
The living room had a simple yet elegant design. The look was something expected from the Hiiragizawa family: imported curtains, finely painted walls and the furniture were just exquisite. Everything was in its proper place and the whole room was neat and tidy, Tomoyo nodded.
Until something from the corner of the area caught her eye.
It was a big, shiny black grand piano.
Her eyes widened as thoughts from her musical days flooded in her mind. She remembered those days when she sang in front of audiences and applauded and awarded her with so many things due to her God-given gift. The piano looked untouched however, I wonder who plays in their family.
Just as she was about to stand and move towards the said object, Nakuru came in with a box in her hands and sat on the couch beside Tomoyo.
"Sorry to keep you waiting! I had to fetch something because this was one of Eriol's orders." the brunette said as she made herself comfortable in her seat.
"It's alright," Tomoyo said.
Nakuru then placed the box on the small table in front of them and opened it revealing an item. She took the item from the box and opened it and presented it in front of Tomoyo.
"Here, this is for you," Nakuru said.
It was a touch screen cellular phone. An expensive one at that, Tomoyo could tell. The company it was brought from was one of her mother's clients and these were just either given free or sold to them at an extremely low price compared to others.
"What is this for?" Tomoyo asked as she accepted the phone in her hands.
"Unfortunately I can't come with you to meet your friend because I have errands to go to today so Eriol instructed me to give you one of these so we can easily contact you. Our numbers are already programmed in it so you can just scroll through your contacts and call us anytime. Oh and," Nakuru said as she pointed something at the phone. "Since you are under the Daidouji-Hiiragizawa deal right now and technically, you're not allowed to go back until the heir thingy, this phone also works as a GPS device in case you run."
Tomoyo knew she had no choice but what surprised her—well, not really—was that Nakuru was explaining everything with a grin on her face. Even the whole GPS tracking device thing, she was showing how it would work and stuff with just a smile, and not the serious one like before.
"You can also use this to contact your friend, Tomoyo. It's perfectly fine with us."
"So does that mean I can already go?"
Nakuru shook her head. "Of course not, silly! You're going to take one of the cars and have 3 bodyguards with you to prevent you from being kidnapped or…running away." She said.
Although it never crossed her mind to runaway here, except for the first day she got here, she knew how much they were making sure that she won't just escape easily. Worse things could probably happen if they found out she tried to escape. The Hiiragizawas are really scary people, she realized.
"Thank you. I'm still really grateful for allowing me to go meet my friend, Nakuru!"
Nakuru nodded. "We don't want you to feel like a prisoner here, Tomoyo. Though I'm sorry for the whole bodyguard thing and car thing but we're still under orders and you know how scary Uncle Hiiragizawa is!" She suddenly cringed.
Tomoyo just giggled. "Yes, he is pretty scary."
"Anyway, you have to be back here before 5PM, okay? And you can go ahead and invite your friend too! Actually, you should bring her here after you meet!" And the heiress nodded.
"Thank you very much!" Tomoyo smiled but then suddenly crossed her mind and she knew she had to ask it. "Uh, can I ask you something?"
"What is it?" Nakuru blinked.
The raven-haired lass then pointed at the grand piano and asked, "Who plays the piano in your family?"
"Ah! Eriol does!" The brunette exclaimed.
Tomoyo's eyes widened. "Eh? Really?" and her companion nodded.
"Why? Is there a problem?" Tomoyo just shook her head at the question and smiled.
You're really full of surprises, Eriol.
"YOU WHAT!" Sakura's shriek echoed across the whole shop they were currently in.
It was a good thing Sakura was free today and was able to immediately respond to Tomoyo's sudden call. They were currently at Heaven & Coffee, the usual spot they used to hang and where the heiress last walked out of her friend before.
"Sakura, ssh!" Tomoyo said with a finger above her lips. She looked around and saw people staring at them but after waving a hand to them, they finally ignored them and went back to their own business. Another reason she wanted to keep Sakura quiet because her bodyguards were around and it would be a bit humiliating if they heard her talk about the kiss.
"But really Tomoyo, I can't believe you and Eriol kissed!" The auburn-haired girl murmured. She looked at Tomoyo like she was the craziest being on the planet right now. Yes, for her it's strange to suddenly have a very close physical contact with the man who she was forced to be with. Heck, they just met a few days ago!
Tomoyo laughed nervously. "I'm having a hard time believing it as well. I knew I had to talk to someone about this and I couldn't possibly tell this to Nakuru right now," she said.
"Huh? Who's Nakuru?" Sakura asked, sipping her tea.
"She's Eriol's cousin and she's currently staying with us right now."
"Oh. Well at least that's good that you have a female companion around."
Tomoyo nodded. "But…" she started and Sakura looked up at her again. "I don't know why I feel so excited whenever I think about the kiss, you know? I actually feel happy whenever I see him. I don't know why, Sakura."
Her friend's eyes widened. Although Sakura's known for her naiveté and cluelessness, her experience with love with her Syaoran made her seem adapt to these things. "Tomoyo, are you…falling in love with him? Because based on what you just told me, it looks like you are."
"I don't think so," she countered. She couldn't possibly be in love with him, right? "I don't even know what got in my head to just allow him to come to me like that. But what I know is that ever since it happened, I can't help but blush whenever I see him because all I can remember was the kiss."
"You got it bad. Well, you did say it was your first kiss, right? Maybe you're just feeling that way right now because it was your first kiss and it just happened to be from him so… Ugh! I'm not good at this! Rika and Chiharu are the ones who know this better." Sakura cried. She did try to understand Tomoyo's feelings based from experience but she can't help but get confused as well.
"I'm sorry for making you confused as well, Sakura,"
"Don't apologize Tomoyo! I'm actually happy that you called me out here today. I thought you were angry at me for what I said before." Sakura stated sadly.
"I would never be angry at you! I thought you were angry at me because I just suddenly ran out on you like that. I'm sorry." Tomoyo said.
Sakura just shook her head. "It's okay. I understand your situation anyway. So, what are we going to do with those feelings of yours?"
Tomoyo shrugged. "I don't know. However I wouldn't want these feelings to hinder my original plan of going home after finishing the deal."
"What if he's feeling the same way with you right now? The whole happy-when-he-sees-you thing?"
"I doubt that."
"Why?"
"It just seems impossible."
Sakura became quiet. In truth, she was worried for her but at the same time happy that she's finally feeling this way for someone. Maybe it wasn't such a bad idea to set her up with someone like this? From the looks of it last time, it really seem like Hiiragizawa was a nice guy who would really take care of Tomoyo.
The café door opened once again and one of the bodyguards entered.
"Ms. Daidouji, it's already time to go," the man said.
Tomoyo looked up at him and nodded. Her eyes suddenly widened when she remembered something and looked at her friend who was sitting across her.
"Sakura, come with me! Nakuru said I should bring you along with me today after this."
Sakura blinked. She was about to smile and say 'yes' to her offer but she suddenly remembered she has a date with Syaoran tonight. "I wish I could, Tomoyo, but I promised Syaoran a date today." She refused shyly.
"Oh that's okay, I'll just see you both tomorrow at the wedding, right?" Tomoyo asked.
Sakura nodded. "We'll definitely be there! I'll make it up to you tomorrow, I promise."
The heiress smiled as she stood up and said goodbye to her friend. She followed the bodyguard out of the shop and entered the car, driving back to the Hiiragizawa mansion.
Tomoyo stepped inside the mansion and was greeted by Mori as she entered. She gave him a smile in return and asked, "Is Eriol already here?"
Mori nodded. "Young master is in his office right now."
Tomoyo muttered her 'thanks' and took a detour to Eriol's office room. I want to thank him properly for letting me go out today. She was about to knock on the door until she heard a conversation inside.
"Who told you to let her out so easily? What if she finds a way to leave instantly? Who gave you permission to do such thing, huh Eriol?"
"It's not like I allowed her to go alone. I asked 3 men to go with her, 4 if you consider the driver too."
"That's not something to decide by yourself, Eriol! You're the one who's to blame if she suddenly leaves without us knowing!"
"Tomoyo is not like that, father. And I believe in the abilities of the men I assigned to go with her. I really doubt that she'll even try to do something as rash just like what you said."
Tomoyo gasped from the other side. It's Eriol's father! Her eyes widened remembering the scary face he put on the first time she met him. She suddenly felt her throat dry and the hand that was about to knock slowly came down as she reconsidered her thoughts.
"Are you trying to get her to leave by herself so you could go off and marry that woman instead, huh?"
Tomoyo has already turned her heel to leave, only hearing the words, 'woman instead huh' in the last statement of the Hiiragizawa senior. She wasn't in the right mind to register those things right now so she just walked past the door and made a move to her room. Her steps halted however, when the door of Eriol's office opened and out came Eriol and his father.
Tomoyo gulped as she shyly turned around to greet the both of them.
"G-Good afternoon," she said.
Mr. Hiiragizawa narrowed his eyes at her and just nodded his head. "I see you came back."
"I'm not one to break my word," she bit her lip. Her tone of voice hid a bit of nervousness and at the same time fear for the old man.
"That's good to know then." he commented and walked past her, going to his own room upstairs.
The heiress exhaled, the breath she was holding in for a few seconds finally came out as she turned towards Eriol. She blinked. Eriol doesn't look like he was in a good mood right now.
"Eriol?"
Her soft voice made Eriol look at her with distant eyes, a tint of sadness present, Tomoyo noted.
"Is everything alright?" She asked worriedly, reaching up to him to touch his cheek. Thankfully, he softened against her touch as he closed his eyes and breathed heavily.
"Yes." he managed to answer.
"I'm happy," Tomoyo smiled at him. "And thank you by the way, for letting me meet Sakura today," Eriol just nodded at her and continued to soak in the warmth of her hand. "I didn't know your father was going home today."
"The wedding's tomorrow," he reminded her.
"Oh right,"
The heiress saw him sigh again and his eyes looked weary too. She looked at him with such worried eyes that Eriol felt like a child before her. "You didn't have a chance to sleep last night, did you? I'm sure you're tired now, why don't you go up to your room and rest?"
"I'm fine. I actually had a pretty nice night, right Tomoyo?" Despite of his condition, he still had energy to tease her partnered with a wink that Tomoyo just rolled her eyes at him.
"I think you had too much cocoa pops," she countered to which the lad just chuckled.
"Then I'm just excited to eat my next cocoa pops treat with my wife starting tomorrow."
And Tomoyo would just want to hit him right now.
The wedding day finally arrived.
And for a wedding that wasn't planned by Tomoyo Daidouji, the whole design made it look like it really suited to her taste. Her only contributions were the theme colours: white and purple, and the dress designs for her wedding gown and for the bridesmaids. Everything else was already arranged by Ms. Reina Otoshi.
With the name of Hiiragizawa and Daidouji, the wedding organizers felt everything needed to be as grand as possible: from the cars that will be using to the decoration of the place and even little things such as the proper utensils to be used during the reception. Anyone who dared call the whole wedding simple doesn't know how to use their eyes well.
The wedding ceremony will take place inside a magnificent and well-designed garden with a beautiful gazebo in front. The carpet was already rolled out and the chairs perfectly aligned. Guests were already starting to arrive as the bride waited inside a room of the hall.
Tomoyo sighed. She was already wearing her wedding gown and her hair was already done, only her makeup was yet to be finished. No matter how many times she reminded herself that this was all part of a deal and she just needed this day to be over with, she can't help but feel anxious about everything.
"Are you excited, Ms. Daidouji?" the makeup artist asked while placing light brush strokes on Tomoyo's face.
The heiress let out a weary smile and replied, "I guess so. I don't know what to feel exactly."
Her companion smiled. "That's okay. Maybe that feeling comes with the happiness of finally marrying your true love, right?"
Oh if she only knew what I'm going through.
The door opened revealing Nakuru, and surprisingly Sakura. The brunette found Sakura looking for Tomoyo and it was a good thing she was also headed to this room so they went together.
"Tomoyo!" they called.
"Hey!" Tomoyo smiled as she stood up and went to hug her best friend and Nakuru, then went back down to finish her makeup.
"You look very pretty, Tomoyo." Sakura commented to which Nakuru agreed on.
"My cousin will definitely be speechless after seeing you like that. You look practically like a goddess!"
Tomoyo felt grateful. She already looked beautiful when she tried the dress on days ago but now her look was almost complete with her hair done and makeup, she could already pass as the earth's Aphrodite or something.
Her makeup was finally done and she let out a huge chunk of breath. Her heart pounded continuously and closed her eyes, desperately trying to relax.
"Tomoyo, it's time." Nakuru said.
Sakura nodded. "And I've already spoken to my dad to walk you to the altar and he's really pleased with it. You're already like a sister to me anyway!" She grinned and passed her bouquet to her.
"Thank you," the heiress smiled.
The wedding march song echoed across the garden as the assigned people started to walk along the aisle. People who were in their seats stood up and watched the aisle until it was finally Tomoyo's turn, attracting everyone's attention for the beauty she was embracing.
Fujitaka Kinomoto was the one who walked down the aisle with her and Tomoyo was very thankful for accepting such position quickly. As she walked, though her face was covered by the veil around her head, she could still see from the corner of her eyes were her friends and relatives sat as well as her mother.
Mother…
Eriol, on the other hand, who was already at the altar watched as the beauty before him continued to walk towards him. But the look on his face would have people mistake him for someone who doesn't want to wed his bride. His eyes looked distant and uninterested but then some people dismissed it thinking it was just his way of showing nervousness. If anything, they wouldn't have guessed he was like that because he doesn't want people to see his reaction the last time he saw her so beautiful.
Tomoyo finally reached him and she gave him a smile. A smile that Eriol was sure it hid something deeper. A smile that he knew was one of her masks to let people think that this is okay, that she's happy.
That they're in love.
Most people in their chairs don't know about the deal. The guests came down to a number of 150, only a third were relatives from both sides while the rest were friends, colleagues and business partners. One hundred and fifty guests were already considered little if we're talking about such big names to be wed. But not everyone knew about the trade and those who knew, knew better than to tell anyone about it.
The wedding ritual continued.
"Do you, Tomoyo Daidouji, take Eriol Hiiragizawa to be your lawful wedded husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?"
"I do."
"And do you, Eriol Hiiragizawa, take Tomoyo Daidouji to be your lawful wedded wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?"
"I do."
They exchanged rings and everything would've been so smooth until Eriol decided to break the awkward silence.
"You may now kiss the bride."
And Eriol did. He gently lifted the veil from Tomoyo's face and there she was, in her most angelic face with a not-so-happy smile. He was already leaning towards her when Tomoyo noticed something glint in his eyes. Their lips finally touched and they could hear the claps from their guests.
But that wasn't the part where the groom broke the silence.
Eriol pulled away with a smirk and whispered against her lips, "It feels so nice to kiss you again for the third time, Tomoyo."
Tomoyo's eyes widened as she stared at him. "W-What are you talking about? This is only our second kiss, right?" She felt heat rise up to her cheeks and her heart beat faster, a bit scared from Eriol's statement.
She saw that glint in his eyes again as if relaying the message through their eyes.
And then it hit her.
"Don't tell me…outside? The kiss at the garden in your mansion? That was…real?"
Eriol smiled wolfishly at her and she would want to kick him there and then. She was at loss for words and she could only feel her face turning redder than ever. The nerve of this guy!
"And I was actually surprised to hear from you that I was your first kiss, dear."
"You…You pervert!" Tomoyo shrieked and lightly hit him on the shoulder, gaining everyone's attention.
"My, my, it looks like they're getting along quite well, don't you think?" Nakuru grinned while Sakura just sweatdropped from the sides.
"Now, now Tomoyo," Eriol said and took her hand with his, leading her for their walk across the aisle and head to reception.
"You sexually harassing pervert, taking advantage of sleeping people!" She gritted under her breath but forced a smile to make everyone think she was alright.
"I wasn't technically taking advantage of you. I mean, you did call my name during my sleep."
The both of them waved to their guests as flower petals showered them to celebrate their wedding.
"You're lying!" Tomoyo's eyes widened.
Eriol turned to her with his teasing eyes and held her hand tighter, "No, I'm not."
Oh God, what did I do to have such a perverted husband!
