~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

After walking through the woods for a while (and not finding Syaoran's house) everyone stopped walking.

"Eriol!! Where are you taking us? We're going in circles, and we've definitely not going to Syaoran's house!!" Tomoyo said, beginning to become impatient.

"We're lost, aren't we?" Sakura said, crossing her arms.

"Well....no, not exactly. We just took a wrong turn, that's all." Eriol said.

"Hello?? You _saying_ that we're lost, dumbass!!!" Syaoran said.

"Okay. Fne. We're lost!!!" Eriol said. Everyone sighed deeply. Sakura rolled her eyes.

"Why don't we just go straight and see where that gets us?" Syaoran suggested.

"Okay. Whatever! I just wanna get outta here." Sakura said. Everyone began to walk straight ahead. Sakura was in front of everyone and she began to wish that she brought her cards. Ahead were a few bushes. 'Hmm.... maybe we'll find a road or something behind those bushes.' She walked through the bushes and suddenly gasped loudly in awe.

"Sakura? Are you okay? What happened?" Tomoyo asked, catching up to Sakura. Suddenly, Tomoyo also gasped in awe.

"Oh my god!! Eriol!!! Syaoran!!! Come here!!" Tomoyo said. They came quickly. They were shocked too.

"Oh my god! What's an ice rink doing in the middle of the woods? Eriol asked. The scenery in fornt of them looked like it came out of a painting. A frozen pond that could be skated one, snow covered evergreens, glistening ice, crisp cold air. Everything seemed magical.

"Hey. Let's skate! That's what we had originally planned to do." Tomoyo said.

"Hey!! Great idea!!" Sakura said. Tomoyo and Sakura put their skates on quickly and hit the ice. They fooled around on the ice. They pretended to be professional figure skaters and they'd fall into the snow.

"Come on, guys!! Get on the ice!! It's fun!" Tomoyo said.

"Alright!! I'm coming!!" Syaoran said. He tried to how off by skating onto the ice but instead fell flat on his face. (SN: Well, not really. He just fell...but not on his face. Am I making any sense? ~.^) The girls giggled a little.

Sakura whispered to Tomoyo, "Well, he certainly did make a _grand_ entrance!!" (SN: hehehehe....get it? *sees people staring at her weirdly* Okay, nevermind.) Sakura skated over to Syaoran and helped him up. Syaoran blushed a little. So did Sakura. They smiled at each other.

"Come on, Eriol!! Get on the ice!!" Tomoyo said. Eriol stood at the edge of the ice, his arms crossed.

"Ice skating is not my thing..." Eriol said.

"Oh, come on!! You're such a wimp!!" Tomoyo said. Without waiting for Eriol to say anything, Tomoyo grabbed Eriol's hand and dragged him on the ice. Eriol immediately fell upon stepping on the ice. Tomoyo giggle, trying not to laugh so loudly. It might've hurt his feelings. Sakura and Syaoran also giggled. Soon, Tomoyo, Sakura, and Syaoran all burst out laughing. Eriol sat there on the ice, trying to get back up but every time he tried to get up, he'd fall right back down. This made the three laugh even harder. Eriol's face turned as red as a tomato. (SN: Well, he was just blushing a lot....ah....you guys know what I mean.) Eriol tried to get back up again, but
unfortunately, he couldn't get back up again. He gave up on trying to get up and crawled off the ice instead. Tomoyo, Sakura, and Syaoran were still laughing their heads off. Eriol was still blushing like crazy. He was so red taht he stood out in the white snow. He saw how much the rest were laughing taht he too began to laugh. Soon, everyone was laughing like crazy. After a while of laughing, everyone had calmed down.

"Boy, Eriol. You sure know how to skate!!!" Tomoyo said, giggling at the memory.

"I know, right?" Eriol said sarcastically. Everyone giggled again. Everyone calmed down and skated off the ice. They all took a seat on a nearby log. Tomoyo and Sakura sat next to each other while Eriol and Syaoran took a seat next to them. As the day went by, it began to get colder. Tomoyo shivered. Sakura noticed her shivering.

"Tomoyo? Are you okay?" Sakura asked worriedly.

"Yeah. I'm fine. I'm just a little cold." Tomoyo said, giving Sakura a reassuring smile. Sakura smiled back.

"You know what would be cool?" Sakura said to everyone.

"The snow in your face?" Eriol answered. (SN: Get it? Cool...as in cold...like snow...? Get it?? *sees ppl staring at Sapphie weirdly* Okay....nevermind. Starrie: Hi! I'm here...I made her say that. ^_^ Sapphie: Do you see how dumb this bitch is? Starrie: This bitch is slow...even when she's not typing, she can't write right the first time around!! Now...on with the fic! Sapphie: Hey!!!!!!!!!!! Starrie: Get to the fic!!! Sapphie: Then stop talking to me!!! *clears throat* Ahem...on with the fic. *hits Starrie upside the head* Starrie: *holds Sapphie back with one hand* Since she's so short, I can do that. ^_^ Sapphie: *pouts* No fair!!! )

Sakura gave Eriol one of her famous death glares. Eriol grinned.

"Haha...funny." Sakura said sarcastically. "Anyway....before I was _rudely_ interuppted," Sakura said, glaring at Eriol "I was thinking that it would be cool if we had a fire and hot cocoa."

"Ooooh!!! Yeah!!! That would be cool!! With marshmallows roasting on the fire!!" Tomoyo said excitedly. She licked her lips at the thought of roasted marshmallows. (SN: Heck, even I'm licking my lips just thinking about it right now. Boy, I wish I could have one right now!!)

"Your wish is my command." Eriol said. He pointed his finger to a spot in front of them. He concentrated his energy in that spot for a bit. Then...POOF!!! (SN: I love saying "POOF," especially when my friend, Claudia, does it. It's SO funny!!) A fire instantly appeared in front of them. Then immediately after the fire appeared, sticks with marshmallows at the end (and a bucket of tons more marshmallows on the side) appeared in everyone's hand (SN: Well, everyone except Eriol, that is.). Then a big thermal with hot cocoa and four mugs appeared next to the bucket of marshmallows. Eriol grinned happily. "Enjoy, everyone!!" Eriol crossed his arms proudly. Tomoyo squeaked with joy (SN: Hehehe....that's what I do ALL the time. Just ask Starrie!! ^^). She stood up and looked at Eriol happily.

"Oh, Eriol!!! You're the best!!!! Tomoyo said, jumping into his arms, hugging him. Eriol fell off the log (from Tomoyo jumping into his arms) and into the snow. Soon, Tomoyo found herself on top of Eriol. Her face was so close to his face, she could feel his warm breath on her cheek. "Omigosh!!! (SN: That says "oh my gosh" if you didn't get that.) Eriol!! I'm so sorry!! Are you okay??" Tomoyo asked, looking into his deep sapphire eyes. Eriol smiled.

"Yeah. I'm fine." Tomoyo gave an embarrassed smile. She got up, allowing Eriol to get up.

"Are you su----aahhhhhhh!!!!!" Tomoyo had slipped on ice.

"Tomoyo!!!" Eriol said. He quickly moved foward, catching her just in the nick of time. Tomoyo stood up, looking into his eyes. He looked into her eyes. "Are you okay, Tomoyo?" Eriol asked.

"Uh...yeah...I'm fine..." Tomoyo said, still looking into his eyes. Eriol looked back into her eyes. He began to lean in. "Eriol...." Tomoyo said.

"Yeah?" Eriol said, slowly leaning in more.

"I...I...." Tomoyo stuttered.

"You what?" Eriol asked, his voice almost to a whisper.

"I....."
