To Fall In Love
"Angeline…" Eriol trailed off.
Tomoyo gaped as she turned around, the amber-haired, blue-eyed girl waving at their direction as she walked towards them, holding out her hand, smiling, "I'm Angeline Lankics. I see we will be the same class this year. I'm new here. I heard I'll be in the same class as the two of you." Tomoyo slowly reached out and shook her hand, "Tomoyo Daidouji." Angeline looked towards Eriol and dropped her hand, "You…You look familiar…"
Eriol nodded, lips forming a thin line, "I'm Eriol Hiiragizawa." Angeline gaped, "E-Eriol!?" Tomoyo sensed the tension and quickly excused herself.
Eriol stood up and touched Angeline's hands, "Angeline! So we meet again…" Angeline quickly released her hands, "Yes, we meet again, Eriol. How are you?" Angeline asked tensely. Eriol nodded, "Fine. How are you and Peter?" Angeline bowed down her head, "Peter and I broke up." Eriol shrugged, "I see." Angeline eyed Eriol before sighing, "Look Eriol, maybe I did once liked you. But that's in the past already. I and you can only be friends. Just friends, that's all."
Eriol nodded, hands in his pockets, "I know. When did you arrive at Tomoeda?" He asked darkly. Angeline shrugged, "Yesterday. I came to futhur my studies…I'm staying at a friend's house…And………And if there's nothing, I better be leaving now." Angeline turned on her heels and walked off. Eriol sighed as he slumped down in his seat as Tomoyo walked up to him, eyes softening, "Eriol?" Eriol looked up wearily, "Nani?" Tomoyo tried a smile, "Care to go for a stroll?"
~
Tomoyo glanced at Eriol, looking down at his feet, hands in his pockets as he trudged along the pathside. Tomoyo bit her lips, "Tell me about Angeline." Eriol looked up, eyebrow arched, "What?" Tomoyo stopped and gazed at Eriol, "Tell me about her." Eriol shook his head, "I don't feel like it." Tomoyo sighed, "Am I not trusted, Eriol?"
"I just don't feel like it." Eriol answered flatly. Tomoyo looked away, "Fine. I'm sorry for asking then."
Silence overcame.
"Look, Tomoyo, it's not that I don't trust you, it's just that…I'm really tired and all and…" Eriol sighed as he gazed up to the skies, "I'm just so….I dunno…" He hung down his head again. "Try me." Tomoyo said, gaze softening, "I know I can't help in anyway. It's always better to tell someone, ne?" Eriol looked up at Tomoyo and shrugged, "I guess…"
Silence.
"I met her when I was at the park after my break up with Kaho. She…came up to me and did nothing but to sit beside me…" Eriol started, "That's how I met her…Then…we came out together more often and…" Eriol hung down his head. Tomoyo squeezed his hand, "You fell for her?" Eriol shook his head, "I…I don't know…But it doesn't matter anymore anyway. She has Peter now." Tomoyo bit her lips, "I heard they broke up, ne? …If you like her, you can always try to get her back."
Eriol shook his head, "She doesn't likes me." "You can try." Tomoyo encouraged. Eriol smiled faintly, "Thank you, Tomoyo, but I really don't feel like doing anything right at this moment."
Tomoyo nodded as silence fell among them.
"Eriol?"
"Yeah?"
"Can I ask you a question?"
"Sure."
"Where are we heading to?" Tomoyo asked. Eriol stopped as he looked around them, only trees and benches surrounded them at the park. Eriol broke up smiling softly, "I don't know." Tomoyo giggled silently when she pointed to the swings, "Wanna take a ride?" Eriol smiled, "You're already 17, for goodness's sake, Tomoyo." Tomoyo skipped towards the swings as she sat, "I don't care. It's really fun."
She pushed herself off the ground as Eriol chuckled, sitting next to her on the swings, "Really, Tomoyo, you're the weirdest person I've ever met in my whole life." Tomoyo shook her head, "There's one more weirder person than me." Eriol arched an eyebrow, "Oh? Who?" "You!" Tomoyo giggled as Eriol shook his head, chuckling, "In what way?"
Tomoyo smiled, "A lot. You're a all mighty sorcerer, Eriol. But you don't act like one. You're really sweet, gentle and cute!" Eriol laughed as he swung himself up, "Not to mention, suave!" Tomoyo broke into gales of laughter, "So what about me? Why am I weird?" Eriol beamed, "Because you're such a strong woman, Tomoyo."
Tomoyo stopped herself on the ground, "In what way?" "A lot…" Eriol smiled down at the lass in front of him, "You make a really good friend, Tomoyo. I'm glad to know you." Tomoyo beamed, "Thank you."
The sun set as the world changed its color instantly, letting the first stars peek through the Tomoeda skies.
"Can I ask you something, Tomoyo?"
Tomoyo looked at Eriol as she swung through the air, "Which is?"
"Why do you like the swings so much?"
Tomoyo giggled, "'Cause it reminds me of my past." Eriol cocked an eyebrow, "How?" Tomoyo smiled, "My dad used to bring me to the swings. He always pushes me on the back when I was a little kid." Tomoyo sighed, "But he's now in France working. I barely see him now. He only writes to me through letters. Rarely, now. He's really busy. But I understand." Tomoyo smiled.
"What about Okaasan?" Eriol asked. Tomoyo looked surprised when she hung down her head, the swing slowing down to a pause, "She…passed away last month…" Eriol stopped himself, "Gomen nasai, Tomoyo-san…I didn't mean to-" Tomoyo smiled, shaking her head, "Daijoubu. It's all over now. Everything's in the past." Eriol smiled fondly, "You know Tomoyo, you're really strong."
Tomoyo beamed, "To be happy, you have to always look towards the future and not live back in the past." She swung up again, facing the skies as doves soared above, "Through these days without my mother, I have learnt to be a much more stronger, happier and independent person. Everybody has the chance to live their own lives." Tomoyo smiled at Eriol, "Even if I'm just a normal girl like everybody."
Eriol chuckled blissfully as he swung up with Tomoyo, "You're not just normal, Tomoyo. You're special. You're so brave and all, Tomoyo. I doubt I can be even as strong as you." Tomoyo shook her head, "Everybody can do it. You can, too." Tomoyo smiled, "It took me a lot of pains to go through the times without my mother but I told myself I still have to do it." Eriol smiled, "Ah."
The moon shone brightly as the two swings finally slowed to a stop.
"It's getting late, Tomoyo. I'll bring you home." Eriol broke the silence. Tomoyo smiled, "Ok." Eriol stood up and helped Tomoyo up.
"Tomoyo?"
"Nani?"
Eriol suddenly leant over and unplucked the clip from her hair, letting the loose dark strands tumble down her shoulders. Tomoyo looked at Eriol quizzically, "What was that for?" Eriol smiled, "I like it when your hair is down." Tomoyo giggled, "You're a weirdo, Eriol." Eriol grinned, "I may be a weirdo. Come on, Tomoyo, let's go."
~
Angeline look at Eriol, folding her arms, "What do you want, Eriol?" Eriol shook his head, "I just need one minute to talk to you. One minute, that's all I ask." Angeline shrugged and nodded, "One minute then." Eriol nodded, "Angeline, I know…maybe-" "Look, Eriol. Maybe I once did liked you in the past. But that's all already history. I don't like you anymore, get it? Things change, Eriol. I am no longer the usual Angeline you know." Eriol bit his lips, "But surely we still can remain as friends?"
Angeline shrugged, "Friends, yeah." She turned on her heels and ran off. "Angeline!" Eriol called after but she didn't return. Eriol sighed as he plopped down on the park bench.
"Eriol?"
Eriol looked up to the soft amethyst eyes of Tomoyo, "Yeah?" Tomoyo sat beside him, "You look cheerless." Eriol shrugged, "Maybe." Tomoyo looked at him for a long while before speaking, "You spoke to Angeline?" Eriol nodded. Tomoyo leant against the bench, "And things didn't go well?" Eriol sighed as he slumped down the bench, "No."
"Tell me the truth, Eriol. Are you in love with Angeline?" Tomoyo asked. Eriol sighed, looking up to the skies, "Once, yes. I'm not sure about now." Tomoyo then smiled, "Everything will work out one day. You will one day marry someone you love dearly, ne?" Eriol chuckled, "Yeah…Hope so." Tomoyo nodded, "Definitely. This person will just walk into your life and you will know at first sight that she's the one for you." Eriol laughed silently, "The same goes for you." Tomoyo beamed.
"Seriously, Tomoyo, everyday, 15 guys will come up to you and ask you for a date, only to receive the rejections. You're already 17, surely you should say 'yes' to at least one of them?" Eriol teased. Tomoyo giggled, "I don't think so. I'm just happy the way things are now." Eriol chuckled.
Tomoyo gazed at Eriol for a long while before looking up to the skies, clearly asking herself one question.
Am I falling for you, Eriol?
Taadaa! Chapter 3! R n r! Motivate me, k? Ha ha! Anyway, please stay tune!!!! *Grabs Angeline by the neck and strangles her and throws her into the garbage, grinning*. There! All better! LOL.
