***Tomoyo***P.O.V
Days have passed and I finally brought myself to be able to forgive Izumi for what's she done.
I'm not completely trusting her but I will let her hang out with me and my friends.
"Hey Peasant!" Izumi says from a distance walking up to me. Did I mention she still likes to call me peasant?
"Ugh hi and my name's Tomoyo for the last time." I say getting a little irritated.
"I already know that but someone as great as me doesn't have time to be calling your name." She says standing tall with pride.
I rolled my eyes at her. Izumi is so tsundere for her very small size. If this was some type of anime fanfiction though, of course.
"Don't roll your eyes at me peasant!" She yells.
"Yeah yeah, but have you seen Megumi anywhere?"
"No now that I think about it I haven't seen that brat anywhere." She says looking puzzled.
"I wonder if she's even here today." I say and Izumi and I begin to walk towards class. I noticed that Megumi's seat was empty. I guess she really isn't here today.
When school was practically over I was relieved and sad at the same time.
School just isn't the same without the prissy, girly, yet fashionable Megumi.
"Ready to go Tomoyo?" I hear Yukimura say as he and Kanou run up to me. Did I mention we still walk home together once in a while.
I nod my head yes and we all begin walking out the door. I look over at Kanou.
His violet eyes are even more handsome than before placed carefully under his nice straight blue hair. Suddenly a memory pops up in my head of Kanou kissing me on my forehead.
I begin to feel my cheeks heating up all over again.
Kanou then notices me and I'm just hoping he doesn't notice my cherry read face. He then looks back and talks to Yukimura I don't think he's noticed anything after all.
When we were about halfway to my house I felt very on edge. Probably because I was thinking in my head what if something bad happened to Megumi?
What if she's very sick or one of her family members are very sick? The more I thought about her, the more I began to worry about her.
"Hey Tomoyo what's wrong?" Kanou says breaking the conversation between him and Yukimura. Kanou is so fast at knowing when something is wrong with me.
"Well it's just Megumi didn't come to school today and I'm just worried about her I feel like there is definitely something wrong."
"Well you know Megumi better than we do chances are if you think something is wrong something probably is. Why don't all three of us go visit her right now." Yukimura says and Kanou nods.
I smile at the both of them they're the most real friends I ever had. I really have to thank them for that.
Moments later we finally made it to Megumi's house. I was hesitant before I finally knocked on the door.
When the door finally opened I was face to face with Megumi who looked perfectly fine.
"T-Tomoyo what are you doing here?" She states surprised.
"I just came to see if you were ok because you didn't come to school I also brought you the notes from today." I state.
"Who's at the door Megumi?" I hear a very deep voice say within Megumi's house.
"Look Tomoyo I'm fine really, but you shouldn't be her-"
Just then a tall thin figured lady stands at the door. I look at her dark green eyes and short light blond hair. I wonder if this was Megumi's mother or something. She's very pretty too.
"Oh we have guest, please come in, come in and join us for dinner." The lady says pushing me and the others inside.
Next thing I know I'm sitting at a table with Yukimura, Kanou and possibly Megumi's whole family.
I also see a little girl who looks exactly like Megumi except she has blue eyes. Next to her is a thin older guy. She must be Megumi's little sister or something.
"Oh how rude of me let me introduce you guys to the family."
"I'm Megumi's mother and this is her father." Megumi's mother states pointing to a really chiseled featured man.
"...And this is Megumi's little sister Hotaru and her older brother Tamaki." She continued.
I looked over at Megumi's brother he looked a but younger than us, he also had really light blond hair and really light blue eyes. He definitely is cute but I already have my eyes set on someone.
I then look over at Megumi as everyone else continues to eat she looks very sad about something. She hasn't even touched anything on her plate.
"Megumi, how rude of you to not eat along with our guests!" Her mother scolded but Megumi still looked unfazed by her.
I look over at Megumi concerned something is really bothering her.
"Oh and Tomoyo was it? I heard so much about you from Megumi." Her mother states now focused on me.
I start to feel nervous but I quickly shook it off.
"Really?" I say in between bites of my food.
"Yes, is it true that you live alone?" She asked me and I can now see this sinister look in her eyes.
"Y-yes." I say not believing what I was hearing.
"Wow you must be a really strong girl. Tell me who are your parents?" She adds.
"Well I don't remember too much about my mom but my dad is Hiroshima Miyuki." I answered. She then gets this look of hatred in her eyes.
"Hiroshima Miyuki? He is one of the worst criminals on the planet always flying around and owing our company money." She states and I make a huge gulp. So those bad people my father owed money to was Megumi's father's company?
"Oh I didn't know." Was all I could say.
"So tell me Tomoyo...are you a criminal just like your father?" She states now with an evil look.
"Ruka that's enough leave the girl alone." Megumi's father states to her and Megumi's mom looks annoyed at him.
"Very well, you kids go have fun me and Megumi's father will clean up the kitchen."
Kanou and Yukimura decide it's time to leave but I tell them I'll stay a little bit longer.
"Oh ok well get home safely Tomoyo." Yukimura states and I tell them to as well.
Kanou stands there a little bit longer with a concerned look on his face before finally walking away.
Once they leave Megumi and I go up to her room.
I plop down on the floor and she plops on her bed still not saying a word.
"Hey Megumi, I really missed you at school today even though you only missed a day." I stated breaking the silence.
"Please don't talk about that right now." She says rather coldly.
"But it's true I real-"
"Tomoyo I'm serious just stop it already."
"Megumi what's wrong?" I state getting more concerned for her.
"Nothing you wouldn't understand." She says now laying on her side in the bed facing the wall.
"Seriously though Megumi come back to school tomorrow I miss having you around." I say as serious as I could.
"Just shut up Tomoyo! Gosh you're such a nuisance!" She practically yells at me which catches me off guard.
Did she really just call me a nuisance?
"Look I'm sorry Tomoyo...I think you should go." She says in a calmer tone.
"Yeah..." I say before I get up and leave. The whole time I'm thinking what is going on with Megumi?
When I make it home I do as much homework as I could and before long it got extra late at night.
Right before I was ready for bed my phone began ringing.
"Megumi..." I said aloud looking at my flashing cellphone screen.
"Hey Tomoyo it's me Megumi. I just wanted to apologize for my out burst today as well as my parents behavior." She says sincerely over the phone.
"It fine really. I know you hate me bringing up school but will I be seeing you there tomorrow?"
"No you won't I-"
"Oh I get it you want to spend more time with your family because they're home with you now. I understand that." I say trying not to show how hurt I really am.
"No Tomoyo you don't get it. I won't be going to school tomorrow...or ever." She stated.
I try to hold back my moment of shock but I don't know if I can do it anymore.
"Well ever sounds like a...um really long time what's going on here Megu-"
"I gotta go Tomoyo...goodbye." She says cutting me off before hanging up the phone.
I try my best to hold back the tears but I don't know if I can do it. Suddenly there is a knock at my bedroom door.
"Go away!" I yell between sniffles but the door opens up anyway.
"Tomoyo are you ok? Are you crying?" I hear my brother Takashi say.
"N-no." I say trying to quickly wiping my eyes. But he doesn't seem very convinced at all. Before I knew it I felt two warm arms wrapped around me. My brother Takashi and I may not agree a lot but one thing I can say is that we have each other's back.
"Well it's just Megumi told me she is never coming back to school again but when I try to reach out and ask her what's going on she just pushes me away." I say with Takashi finally releasing me as I wipe up my tears.
Takashi looks at me and sighs before speaking.
"I know." I stare at Takashi in shock.
"What do you mean?" I asked afraid of what the answer will be. Takashi looks in the distance for a long time before he finally answers me.
"She really didn't tell you anything Tomoyo? Megumi broke up with me today." He says in a very sad and serious tone. Something is really going on with Megumi and it isn't only affecting me.
"Tomoyo, Megumi is moving to Paris tomorrow morning. Her parents don't think Seika High is a good school for her they want her to go to a higher class school apparently. They also think we are a bad influence on her." Takashi adds all at once.
"W-Why didn't she tell me this?" I said barely grasping on to what I was hearing.
"She probably didn't know how to. I mean she knew this would affect you the most it's not easy telling someone you care about that they can never see you again." He states which starts to make me more angry than sad now.
"That's a load of crap! I'm her best friend how could she do this to me?" I said out of anger, frustration and many other emotions.
"Tomoyo calm down. She never meant to hurt you on purpose besides it's all her parents doing it's not like she really had much of a choice." He states and at that point I didn't know what to say I sunk low to my knees as Takashi gave me another hug.
Sometimes I wish I could just fly away from all my problems...
***Megumi***P.O.V
This was it I was finally moving to Paris with my family. Of course I know they have the latest fashions and bags there. Oh who am I kidding? I don't want to move, I'd do anything if I could stay with Tomoyo and the others even if it was just for a minute.
It was about thirty minutes before departure time and Tomoyo hasn't showed up to wish me goodbye like Takashi and the others have.
Who am I kidding why would she? After all she probably hates me for not telling her about me moving to Paris even though Takashi probably already has.
Not only that she has school today right? She probably really needed to go today. I try to hold back my tears but they keep coming.
I'd be lying if I said I wanted Tomoyo to be here instead of school. I'm such a selfish person aren't I?
"Megumi wait!" I hear a voice yell I turn around to face Takashi. He now has tears streaming down his eyes.
"You can't leave Megumi! What about us? What about our relationship Megumi I-"
"You can stop right there, I understand Takashi. I'm a little relieved now though you haven't shed a single tear since I've said I was moving but now you are letting your emotions out and showing how much you truly care." I state with a smile.
Takashi moves closer and then grabs me gently by the sides of my face and kisses me on the lips. I am going to miss his warmth of his lips on mine. Without him my lips will feel cold.
I then turn around and begin to head back towards the plane. Goodbye Seika High...
"You coward!" I hear another voice yell and I force myself to turn around eyes go wide when I see Tomoyo standing in my view, she looks pissed.
"How could you pretend to be happy about this when you're not? If you don't wanna move away then stand up to your parents! Just like when I first met you, you seemed like the type of girl that stood for herself. You and I both know this isn't you, you're just trying to do what makes your parents happy!" Tomoyo yells at me more.
I didn't know what to say Tomoyo was right about that.
"Well are you happy you coward? Are you?" Tomoyo says breaking the silence.
"What choice do I have they're my parents I can't just say no to them!" I yelled back.
"But you can Megumi, if you really are going to miss us then you would do whatever it takes to make sure you don't have to leave." Tomoyo adds calmly with a smile.
She's right I must do whatever it takes.
"Mom, dad I can't move to Paris with you, I'm staying here." I say proudly without any regrets or doubts.
"What do you mean you honestly want to stay in this dump?" My mother says in a snobbish tone.
"Ruka, that's enough out of you. Megumi can make decisions for herself she's not a little girl anymore. Her friends must really care about her enough to miss school and try and stop her from moving." My dads scolds my mother.
"B-But."
"No buts we are staying here to do what makes Megumi happy not what makes us happy. Besides Paris isn't going anywhere anytime soon." My dad says in a stern voice cutting her off.
I smile at my father and give him the biggest hug. I am then wrapped around in the rest of my friends arms.
***Tomoyo***P.O.V
I am the last person to hug Megumi and I can honestly say it's good to know that my best friend is no longer leaving me because I only have one friend that is like Megumi.
Moments later everyone is celebrating the fact that Megumi isn't leaving after all. Suddenly Kanou walks up to me.
"You did good Tomoyo." Kanou says smiling at me with his beautiful violet eyes staring at me. I smile back.
Everything is back to normal I think to myself as Kanou and I walk back to join the celebration.
"Did you confess to Kanou yet?" Megumi whispers in my ear causing me to blush extra hard.
Yup everything is back to normal alright.
