Chapter 6: Heaven on earth
During the exam week, both Eriol and Tomoyo were busy and barely had time for each other and it was the weekend after all the exams when they had their first official date.
"I'll pick you up at around seven okay Tomoyo-chan?"
"Hai" was Tomoyo's reply.
Sakura was the most excited. She helped Tomoyo pick out a dress and styled her hair and everything, the result, an angel. She was wearing a purple sleeveless shirt with a white tie-dyed heart at the front and a white skirt that ended just above her knees. At the lower left corner of the skirt, a rose was embroidered in silver thread. Her feet were clad in light, almost white lavender sandals that were 2 inches high. She had the same colored hand bag with the same rose embroidered with silver thread on the lower right corner. Her hair was held in a half ponytail by purple and white ribbons and she had Rose shaped silver earrings and a small lavender watch around her wrist.
When the doorbell rang, Sakura went to get the door. "Konichiwa Sakura- chan..."
Sakura studied her friend, "Konichawa Eriol-kun," and she motioned him in the receiving area, "I'm going to call Tomoyo-chan now" and she bounced towards the next room where the stairs was located with the smile still on her lips.
Eriol looked at the mirror that adorned the room and he studied himself, he fixed the collar of his polo once more, smiled satisfactorily and proceeded to sit in one of the chairs when he heard heels clicking on the floor.
He stood up and looked towards the doorway, in came Tomoyo Daidouji with all her splendor and glory.
Eriol's breath as well as his voice seemed to be stuck in his throat.
"You look good too." Tomoyo smiled affectionately at him.
He collected himself and said, "Shall we go then milady?"
"Much obliged milord." the two of them walked out of the mansion but not before Sakura told them to be back before 12.
"Don't worry; I'll bring Cinderella home by then." was Eriol's assurance.
They were driving in Eriol's silver mustang, "Where are we going Eriol- kun?"
"It's a surprise." He simply replied.
They parked in a secluded club house.
He led her across the street towards the butterfly garden. "Ladies first," He opened the door for her and Tomoyo stared astounded.
The stars that were spread across the sky and candles strategically placed around the garden were the only sources of light. At the center, a soft blue blanket was spread and a picnic basket along side it.
Nocturnal butterflies added to the ethereal beauty of it all and the smell of the flowers that were in bloom at best in spring gave a natural heavenly aroma that added to the effect.
"I'm glad you like it." Eriol whispered behind her.
She turned back to look at him, "You didn't do this...just for me did you?"
"I wanted you to know that I was serious when I asked you to be my girl."
She looked at the preparations he made, "I...don't know what to say." she said still mesmerized by the beauty that was in front of her.
"Just say yes..."Eriol whispered, Tomoyo smiled evilly in return. Eriol realized just how much he missed that smile of hers.
"Maybe Eriol-kun..." Tomoyo replied
He wore the same identical smile as hers, "Well, maybe after a little convincing you'll finally agree."
She shrugged, "Maybe."
*
She didn't know how they got into this position and frankly, right now she didn't care.
She was just listening to the song content to be in his arms, swaying at the beat of the music.
"If I'm not in love with you What is this I'm going through, tonight?
If this heart is lying, What should I believe in?
Why do I go crazy? Every time I think about you baby
Why else do I want you like I do? If I'm not in love with you?"
The last verse signaled the end of the song, that's when she realized what the song meant.
Eriol cupped her cheek with his right hand and looked at her intently. He placed a soft kiss on her forehead then his lips slowly made his way towards the tip of her nose and then he stopped, his lips near hers once again, "Tomoyo, for the last time, will you be my girl?" She was closing the gap between their lips slowly. Before their lips touched, she whispered, "Yes"
The butterflies took flight at the same time their lips met flashing their wonderful array of colors and swirling all around the garden. The stars glowed even more and the flames on the candles seemed to be brighter than before.
Eriol lost himself in the kiss; his mind was once again in a state of turmoil from the different reactions of his body to this simple kiss.
The most alarming thought suddenly crossed his mind, 'Isn't this just a way for you to be with the one you truly love?' and the image of Kaho Mizuki appeared in his mind.
He broke away quickly, his body protesting only his mind and heart agreeing. He smiled gently at the girl before him, "Tomoyo-chan, thank you, but I think its time to go home, your mother, not to mention Sakura-chan, will have my head if you aren't in the Daidouji mansion by 12."
She nodded, picked up her hand bag and helped Eriol fix the picnic basket and blanket and take away all the candles and the radio.
They headed back towards the mansion and bid their farewells to each other.
