Faded From The World
Fit for a Witch!
"Sakura-chaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan!," Tomoyo called in a singsong voice, " I'm finished!" Sakura picked up the remote beside her and switched off the gargantuan(A/N: I love that word!) television that was mounted on her friends wall. Lord, Tomoyo had all the fancy gadgets!
"I'll be right there, I'm just taking out the disc!" She called back as she pressed the 'Eject' button on the DVD player. Out came one of the very many discs that Tomoyo had made that featured Sakura in her adventures with the Clow and Sakura Cards. Each disc was decorated with a picture of Sakura in the costume she had worn for that disc. This particular one she had been watching featured her fight with Yue at Tokyo Tower Watching these old videos made her feel so nostalgic and miss those time so much.
Those times were the best. In every fight she could count on Syaoran to be there beside her, helping her pull through. Eventually it wasn't just fights. He was always there, standing up for her, comforting her, giving her someone to talk to where she was alone. Syaoran. Why had he distanced himself so much? Didn't he know that it was hurting Sakura to have her boyf – close friend do this to her? Tomoyo had gotten to stay friends with Eirol, even become more than friends. Why didn't she deserve the same?
"Sakuraaaaaa-chaaaaaan!!"
She placed the disc back in the correct box and the box in the right spot on the shelves of her adventures. All filed in chronological order, it never ceased to amaze her how obsessed Tomoyo was with these videos. She entered the part of the room Tomoyo had been working on her dress in, there were scraps of fabric everywhere and needles and thread littered her work desk. Tomoyo squealed. "I finished! And it's sooooooo pretty!!! Try it on, try it on!" She pointed excitedly towards the dress and accessories on the table.
Five minutes later, Sakura was doing a 360° for Tomoyo in front of a mirror. The dress was, as always, stunning. Just as the sketch show, with a few additions. A big orange bow had been added on the back and the neck line had been cut to a deep V with the orange fabric squaring off the bottom of it. Kero was also flying around the room in his costume,a blue cape with the spiral pattern on it. He was taking what they guessed would be a short lived break from his sweets.
"So, what do you think? Too flashy? Too dull? Too perfect?" Sakura did one last turn before answering.
"Too prefect, I think. I love it!" She jumped up and down, examining the bounciness of the skirt and the movement of the bow on her back. The skirt the was attached to the dress was separate from the tutu like thing that made the skirt puff out, so every time she jumped the skirt came out of place.
"Hmm... I'm going to have to fix that, it doesn't look very graceful." Tomoyo thought out loud as she fetched some pins to tack the skirt down till she could sew it. She worked diligently, and in two minutes, maybe even less it was fixed and Sakura was back in costume. "There that's better!"
"Thanks Tomoyo-chan! You're so talented! I could never make something like this, it's to complicated for me." She reminisced as she, once again, examined her friends handiwork.
"Oh, I think you could. With my help at least. I know! I'll help you make something one day! How bout a black dress with pointy shoulders and white trim, it will be so eccentric! Fit for a witch!"(A/N: Anyone get that reference?)
"You'd really teach me, Tomoyo-chan?" She nodded.
"Now, let's get you out of that, it's late and we both need to sleep. I'll get the bed ready." Sakura nodded and headed back to the bathroom to change. She emerged wearing a pair of light blue cloud covered flannel pajamas and her hair was pulled back into a long braid to avoid getting it tangled during her sleep. Tomoyo had also changed into her own pair of matching pajamas, but hadn't pulled back her hair.
The green bed covers on Tomoyo's huge king sized bed were pulled back for easy access and the cheesy little chocolate that hotels usually put on pillows was sitting right there in it's place. A little inside joke.
Tomoyo climbed into her side of the bed, the side closer to the huge window that Sakura felt uneasy sleeping near. "Good night, Sakura-chan." She murmured as her friend climbed in with her.
"Mn, you too, Tomoyo-chan..." And the second Sakura's head hit the pillow, she was out like a light.
