Author's note: Wow, my first yuri fic. Well, since this is my first one, please be kind. I've taken a liking to this certain CCS couple so I decided to take a shot at writing for it. Now if you don't like this kind of stuff, then don't read. Can't say I didn't warn you. Any flames will be shot down by my Flamedestroyomatic™! Now onward to the fic!
Tomoyo couldn't take it any longer. She just had to tell Sakura. Just had to. It had been eating her up inside for years now and she couldn't hide it any longer. She had been in her room watching one of her many Sakura videos. This one was a video of her and Sakura having fun at a costume party. After seeing Sakura dressed in that beautiful cat costume and dancing with some boy she decided now would be the time to tell her. Before she lost her to someone else.
She picked up the phone and called her up.
"Hello?" said one of the sweetest voices she had ever heard.
"S-Sakura-chan?"
"Oh Tomoyo-chan! How are you doing?"
Her voice…so innocent...
"Sakura...is there anyone at your house right now?"
"No. Since it's Saturday my father went out of town and won't be back till Monday. It's a 3-day weekend after all."
"Good. There's something I have to tell you, but it can't be said on the phone. It must be said in person."
"Hmm?"
"I'll be right over." Click.
Sakura stared into the phone. "Must be important." she said and hung up.
Tomoyo finally made her way to Sakura's house. She took a deep breath. She rang the doorbell. Sakura opened the door with a bright smile on her face that nearly melted Tomoyo.
"Come on in, Tomoyo-chan," she greeted happily.
Tomoyo walked into her house and took a deep breath again.
"Sakura, I--"
"Oh I'm sorry, Tomoyo-chan, but I was up in my room brushing my hair. Mind if we go up there so I can finish?"
"Oh, sure."
The two friends walked up to Sakura's room. Tomoyo sat on Sakura's bed while Sakura sat near her dresser brushing her hair. She looked so lovely the way she was doing it so gracefully. Tomoyo decided not to interrupt this moment of beauty. When Sakura was finished she put her brush down, got up, sat next to Tomoyo, and put her hand on Tomoyo's shoulder. She gave her one of her nicest smiles.
Why must she torture me so? Tomoyo thought in aguish.
"So what is it you wanted to tell me?" she asked.
So innocent...
Tomoyo looked down and blushed very hard.
"Sakura-chan, how long have we known each other?" Sakura was stunned at the question.
"Why...since forever I believe."
"Right. But what do you think of me?"
"Why that is quite silly. You're my best friend!"
"I know, but...did you ever think friends could become...more than friends?"
Sakura had a blank look on her face. "I'm not following."
Tomoyo continued to look down.
"Well, remember back a long time ago, on Field Day after my mom and your dad finished fighting and after you captured the Flower Card? When we were talking about how my mom and your mom loved each other? I told you that I loved you?"
"Of course! If that's what you're talking about I already told you that I love you as well."
"But that's not what I meant."
"Huh?"
"I meant that...well..."
Sakura narrowed her eyes in a serious fashion. "Tomoyo...speak up..."
"...I love you"
"........."
Tomoyo looked at Sakura in the eyes.
"I love you, Sakura. I've fallen madly and crazy in love with you."
Sakura looked away. Tomoyo stared at her. For the longest time no one spoke.
"How long?" Sakura finally spoke.
"Huh?" asked Tomoyo.
"How long have you been in love me?" she reiterated without looking at her.
Tomoyo gulped and looked down once again.
"I...don't know. Pretty long."
"I see." Sakura looked at Tomoyo. As soon as Tomoyo felt Sakura's eyes on her, she looked up at her as well. More awkward silence. Tomoyo was beginning to think this was a mistake. Like this kind of secret should've been taken to the grave. But Sakura reached her hand out toward Tomoyo's face. What's she doing? Is she going to slap me? But instead, to Tomoyo's surprise, she stroked her cheek. Sakura smiled a warm smile. Tomoyo's face turned extremely red from blushing.
"That must've been hard for you, wasn't it?" she asked softly. Tomoyo nodded.
"I'm sorry."
But Sakura's expression changed faster than a speeding bullet.
"But…I don't think we can see each other anymore."
Tomoyo stopped like she'd been shot.
"W-What? But-but," Tomoyo cried
"Please…just go."
"Sakura-chan, I---!"
"Tomoyo, please…just…go…"
These four words hit her like four lead bullets to the chest (hey! Three gun analogies in a row!). Tomoyo slowly got up. Tears welled up in her eyes. Sakura turned away and walked up to her dresser and looked down. She didn't even call her what she liked hearing out of her mouth most. "Tomoyo-chan".
Tomoyo didn't understand. Everything had been going well. Why was…why was Sakura acting like this. But she respected and loved Sakura more than anything. If this is what she wanted, then so be it. Tomoyo slowly walked to the door of her room. She took one last look at Sakura and left. Sakura looked at the direction Tomoyo had been with tear-stricken eyes. She looked out the window and saw Tomoyo walking gloomily down the streets.
"If only she knew…Tomoyo-chan…"
Tomoyo tried to figure out why Sakura had been acting that way. But she couldn't. She couldn't figure out why Sakura would reject her like that. But she still loved her. If only she knew the reason. If only she knew.
Isn't it obvious?
***************************
A/N: Wow. Not really my best endings. I really gotta quit making these type of endings. That's not how it originally was suppose to be but when I wrote it, it just sorta…happened. And I hope my sister (who also writes for FF.net) doesn't see this story or she'll flip. Ah well. I could make sequel for this if people like it. Or if I want to. Or whatever.
