Okay, this is my first fic, so don't expect much. This is set after Li returns from the formalities in Hong Kong. Sakura and Li are together, but there are still a few things that need to be straightened out. Anyways I won't say too much otherwise I'd be givin away the plot! ^_^ Anyway here it izz...
CONFLICTS
~~CHAPTER ONE~~
It had been a pleasant day for everyone, but all they felt like now was a little well-deserved rest. After a day up town, Sakura, Li, Tomoyo and Eriol had all departed to Eriol's house, where they were having a sleep-over - a sort of celebration of Li's return, but more importantly, of Li and Sakura's reunion. They had hardly left each other's side all day and were hardly making an exception now. Tomoyo smiled to them from a chair, only half-listening to Eriol's commentation of the day's events. She was happy now that Sakura had found someone to make her happy, but she couldn't help feeling somewhat empty. The feeling had been lingering ever since Li had left, but had not shown it's true colours until he had returned again. It was not jealousy that consumed her though, Tomoyo was glad Sakura was with someone that could make her truly happy. But... but had no one thought of her? Of her feelings?
Okay, this is probably going a little fast, so let's backtrack a little. After Li left for Hong Kong, a lot of major changes took place. Eriol, very much eating his own words, fell out of love with Mizuki Kaho and returned to Tomoeda to guide the mistress. Although he seldom shows it, he has been sorrow-struck ever since, with only his none too adequate companions, Spinel Sun and Nakuru to help him along. Sakura was her usual cheery self, despite Li's absence. She still had all her friends to keep her company and, although she missed Li every day, she hung onto the belief that he would someday soon return. Tomoyo, as always, was a main support for Sakura and helped her every step of the way. But for this she has forsaken her own well being, and at times feels quite lonesome, and deep down she longs for someone of her own.
Anyway, back to the story.
Li and Sakura were embraced in each other's arms, whispering sweetly to each other, Sakura giving the occasional giggle and Li blushing madly. Tomoyo sat, her back to Sakura now, watching as Kero and Spinel argued over the last piece of Strawberry Shortcake. Tomoyo yawned, then turned around to meet Eriol's gaze. "I thought you might want some tea?" he said, smiling warmly.
"Err, I'm okay, I think I'd rather just get some sleep," she replied, standing and making her way across the room to her sleeping bag. Eriol sighed deeply, taking the tea himself and making himself comfortable in his large armchair at the foot of the room. He surveyed the room from a distance. Sakura and Li had long since fallen asleep in a tight embrace. Kero and Spinel were lying in a scramble, peacefully asleep, oblivious of the fact that they were covered head to toe in cream. Tomoyo, however, was lying with her back to him. He could sense she was still awake, so he called quietly across the room to grab her attention, "Tomoyo." When he received no reply, he lay back, and himself drifted into a restless and uneasy sleep.
Hope you enjoyed it! Chapter 2 coming soon!
