Our Story By like a falling star

*Tomoyo's POV*

I loved Eriol. I really did.

I still do. More than I could ever imagine.

It wasn't the smile. His smile was beautiful-genuine and mysterious and ever so charming. It had all the girls rushing to him like bees to honey. Yet it wasn't the smile; had never been the smile.

It wasn't the fingers. Long, pale, slender fingers, gentle to the touch with a masculine callus from years of rigorous magical training. Fingers that wiped my tears away, fingers that smoothed and lingered over pristine white piano keys, fingers that brought harm and caused mischief and worked wonders. Yet it wasn't, had never been the fingers.

The eyes.

It was the eyes, always had been the eyes. Obscured by frameless spectacles were piercing eyes of indescribable sapphire, sprinkled with tiny flecks of molten grey, eyes that saw things that should never have been seen, timeless eyes that were wise beyond belief, eyes that were hard and cold and unblinking in the face of enemies.

It was these same intense eyes that held my gaze, eyes that crinkled with laughter and amusement at my jokes, eyes that softened gently in concern, eyes that were sincere and promising and utterly, utterly beautiful.

And I loved him for that.

*Eriol's POV*

I loved Tomoyo, always did; that was all there was to it.

I'm not afraid to admit it.

Kaho mattered no longer, though by then I realized that I never really cared for her in the first place.

It had been Tomoyo all along; always her, only her.

It's strange how I never noticed it.

Though I went through every significant event of my life with Kaho, it was only after Tomoyo entered my life that it all became meaningful, that it had a purpose.

I was the lock and she, the key. I was closed, obscured, nearly impossible to decipher. She was the key; unveiling all the mysteries and unlocking the doors that would, eventually, lead to my true being, that is to say, my heart.

She was always gentle, never probing, never prying. Little by little, she gingerly blew away the fog that kept me hidden. Little by little, she made me love in a way that I couldn't even begin to comprehend.

She was my darling, Tomoyo, my angel, my best friend, my soul mate, my everything. Together we seeked, together we found, and together we fixed the puzzle of life, bonded by one true hope: love.
