"TOMOYO!" Eriol screamed in fury as he ran like a madman. He was slightly bleeding from the leg, but all he cared right now was to find Tomoyo. "TOMOYO!!!" he repeated over and over again.

Sakura and Syaoran helped him search but to no avail. When Eriol finally found her she was on the sidewalk bleeding immensely from her stomach and legs. "TOMOYO!!!!!" he screamed as he ran by her side.

"Tomoyo," he whispered as he took her into his arms. "Don't leave me…"

Tomoyo didn't answer since she was unconscious. She was still alive; her breathing was shallow and was quieting down. Eriol stood up with her nestled in his arms and ran back to the site of the accident.

"YOU BASTARD!" he screamed.

The driver blinked and said, "Sorry. I'll take her to the hospital immediately."

"YOU BETTER!! I WILL KILL YOU IF SHE DIES!!!" Eriol screamed going into a panic.

"Then get in, now!" the driver shouted back.

Eriol jumped into the backseat and Syaoran and Sakura followed suit. "You coming Ms. Mizuki and bastard?"

"No, we'll go back to the manor," Kaho said coolly.

Eriol rolled up the windows without a care and shouted to the driver, "HURRY UP!!! GET TO THE DAMN HOSPITAL!"

"Ok ok!" the traumatized driver shouted as he sped off.

Eriol turned back his attentions to Tomoyo, who was still bleeding all over him. He ripped off his already blood soaked shirt and tied up Tomoyo's wounds, which slowed down to a trickle. He gathered Tomoyo closer to his chest and whispered, "Don't leave me Tomoyo-san, I can't live without you…"

Tomoyo's eyes opened slightly and managed to stutter, "I can't leave you remember? I'm there to give you advice…" Tomoyo's eyes closed once again.

Eriol smiled gently and held her closer. Sakura and Syaoran observed this solemnly, half sad at Tomoyo's plight, but half admiring at Eriol's care for her.

The driver finally pulled to a stop and said, "We're here."
Eriol jumped up immediately and ran to the emergency room, not caring if Syaoran and Sakura could keep up.

"Will she live?" Eriol asked in a hushed voice to the tired doctor who just emerged from the hospital room.

"I have no idea, her life is in the balance at the moment," he replied sadly. "There is a huge chance she will not survive."

Eriol's eyes watered up and he managed to stutter, "Can I see her?"

"She is unconscious, but yes, you can," the doctor replied. As Eriol opened the door the doctor said, "You know…you must love this lady a lot, Tomoyo am I correct? Since you came in running without a shirt of course."

"Yes, I do," Eriol replied, ignoring the last part of the comment. He then went into the room and rushed to Tomoyo's side.

Syaoran and Sakura were outside of the hospital window chatting with each other quietly…

"So he really does love Daidouji-san?" Syaoran asked Sakura.

"Isn't it quite obvious?" Sakura said back. "He's loved her for quite a long time at the way they talk to each other. And I'm sure Tomoyo-chan loves him back." Sakura's eyes turned dull at the thought of her friend's sad plight.

In the hospital room…

"Tomoyo-san…" Eriol whispered as he sat down. He took Tomoyo's hand into his and held it tightly. A soft grip in return was all he needed to smile. "You won't die, will you Tomoyo-san?"

"Iie…you need me here," she whispered faintly.

"Tomoyo-san?" Eriol ventured.

Silence.

"Aishiteru," he whispered softly. "Aishiteru for being there for me when I needed you."

Tomoyo's only response was a loosened grip as she fell asleep, but Eriol was glad anyway. He stood up and went outside where Sakura and Syaoran were standing.
