Chapter 10: When my Prince comes

Tomoyo was walking through the garden of the hotel when she saw a hammock tied between two large Sakura trees.

She laid on it and closed her eyes enjoying the soft breeze the wind provided. She didn't get much sleep last night and now she was feeling drowsy when soft hands touched her cheek.

She moaned despite herself and suddenly opened her eyes.

Amethyst met dark blue and Tomoyo felt herself melting under the gaze that mesmerized her ten years ago.

"Tomoyo-chan, we have to talk." Her eyes turned as hard as steel and she tried to break free but his eyes had the power to make her physically weak.

His head hovered above hers and it went as close as the day she fell in love with him.

"Tomoyo-chan, I love you, don't ever leave me again." and he kissed her.

She tried to struggle against his lips but she found that she couldn't break free, instead she felt herself respond to the kiss.

She moaned once more which earned a satisfied smirk from the culprit once they broke apart.

"I'm sorry about what happened that day Tomoyo-chan. I was stupid to let you go and I'm hoping that I could have you back."

Tomoyo turned away, "Hope all you want Hiiragizawa. I'm never taking you back."

He nuzzled against her neck and placed butterfly kisses on it. "Really now?" he said in between kisses.

'Stupid hormones', she thought.

"Hiiragizawa, how do I know that you're not lying to me now? That you're not using me again for another ploy to amuse yourself? How do I know that you're not trying to ruin my life even more? How do I know that this time, you truly love me?" She whispered and he noted the drastic change between the cold hearted Tomoyo and this gentle one.

He raised himself from her neck, "Simple, if I ruin your life, I ruin mine."

She looked at him with confused eyes, "How can that be?"

"Because you are my life Tomoyo." And he was about to dive in for another kiss but she moved her head and instead it became a peck on the cheek.

"What about Kaho?" her voice turned steely once again.

"Oh Kaho, well I was planning to have you both." Eriol smiled his mischievous smile.

She narrowed her eyes at him and was about to strangle him when he chuckled.

"No, I wouldn't do that, I broke up with her."

"Why?" she squeaked.

"Well, I was looking for you the day you left and Sakura-chan presented me with a question that cleared my mind as well as confused it even more." he smiled at the memory.

"What question was that?" she looked amused and intrigued at the same time.

"I can remember it perfectly well it was 'Tell me Eriol-kun, have you fallen in love with my tomodachi-kun? I mean real love.'" he made the best impression of Sakura's voice.

Tomoyo laughed, "And what did you say?"

"Nothing, I was confused myself and I thought that when I was with Kaho again everything would work out but it didn't."

She just looked at him and urged him to continue his story.

"Our relationship became dull, I realized that I didn't love Kaho and I couldn't love her."

Tomoyo blinked a couple of times and replied, "Why, I always thought that you would live happily ever after with 'her'."

He once again came to the distance where there lips where dangerously close. "It was because she wasn't you."

This time Tomoyo allowed herself to be kissed. She didn't realize how she missed his soft kisses and warm embrace until now.

"Tomoyo-chan, a question still remains."

"Hmm, and what is that?" she purred.

"Will you give me a second chance, to prove my love to you?" He removed himself from on top of her and kneeled beside the hammock, placed her hands on top of his heart with one hand and on the other was a ring.

"This time, I won't let you go; will you marry me Tomoyo-chan?"

"Isn't this a bit too soon? I mean I still hate you, you know." She turned her head away from him in a snobbish manner.

He smiled, "Of course you do Tomoyo-chan, that's why you let me kiss you."

Tomoyo blushed a pretty crimson shade.

"Okay Eriol-kun, you win, I'll marry you." and she blushed even more.

He slipped the ring on her ring finger and she stared at it and smiled.

Tomoyo looked at her husband to be and pounced on him which sent them rolling on the grass, laughing.

Tomoyo was shuffling through her things and found the video she didn't get to finish.

She watched it up to the end and was surprised for in the end, Matsuhiro realized his mistake and went to pursue the raven haired girl who hated him more than ever and eventually he melted her heart once more and lived happily ever after together.

"Tomoyo-chan, come down, dinner's getting cold."

Tomoyo smiled, she found her happily ever after too. "Coming Eriol-kun!"

Author's notes: Quite an ending eh? Well, at least everybody's happy... now for my thanks...

I would like to mention these people who gave me support through out the time this fic was posted...

Kat-san/hazelwand: Yes dear Kat-san, I value your reviews most of all that to me a chapter won't be complete if I don't see a review from you. You are like the cane that keeps me standing especially when I lost faith in my writing abilities. So people, if you liked my fic, believe me; read Kat- san's Aratamete, this one isn't even half as good.

Fireblaze: Your reviews were such fun to read that when there was a time you stopped reviewing, I decided to email everybody when I posted next, though it did come a little too late but it's okay, read her fic, Never ending issues (sorry, I forgot if it had a 'the' at the beginning...^,^) Another great fic from fireblaze.

Meemee: I can't believe such a talented author is reading and supporting my fic but thank you, it means a lot to me, love the blog spot by the way, I always wanted one but I'm afraid that I don't have the time for it.
