The Meeting Again
Cold eyes scanned the surroundings of the sea as he watched the similar beat of the waves crashed upon shore. Letting out a soft sigh, Eriol Hiiragizawa brushed the dark tresses from his eyes and continued to sit silently on the sand.
"Yo Eriol!"
Eriol turned around, already knowing who it was.
Tall and handsome, auburn-haired Li Syaoran, sat down beside his friend, grinning like an idiot, "How's the day going, Snowman?" Eriol rolled his eyes, "Not bad."
"I heard Sallie and a bunch of girls were planning to launch on you." Syaoran teased. Eriol bit his lips, almost wanting to beat up that guy beside him for that remark.
"None of my business." Eriol replied simply. Syaoran laughed, "Lucky you! If only I have them all!"
Eriol eyed Syaoran, "Then take them if you want."
Syaoran suddenly lowered his head, "Nah."
A smirk almost came to Eriol as he realized his good friend was blushing.
"Love her?"
Syaoran's head jerked up, "Of course not! Don't be mad, Snowman!"
Eriol only smirked as Syaoran finally sighed.
"Fine. I do love her." Syaoran admitted. Eriol looked at Syaoran, "Tell her?" Syaoran began to shake his head profusely, "Rejection. She'll hate me for life."
Eriol shrugged as silence overcame.
"You think Sakura will like me?" Syaoran asked with uncertainty in his voice. Eriol looked at Syaoran, "Don't ask me." Syaoran let out a frustrated sigh before standing up.
"I'm going back to the library now. I still have to see that stupid teacher." Syaoran said before saying goodbye to the 'snowman' who remained silent.
What a jerk. He likes that Kinomoto and he doesn't want to confess. Cowardy. Eriol thought as he stared out to the sea.
Syaoran had been his only good friend in Shades ever since he entered school. Like always, he had remained cool and silent when this stubborn mountain-block, Li Syaoran, tried a hundred million ways to be friends with him. Sure, with much effort, Eriol started to believe in him a little.
Not trust.
Never.
Eriol clenched his fist as he stared down at the sand.
Father…
Eriol was about to stand up and walk back to Shades when his heart suddenly twitched again. He winced a little.
That stupid twitch again.
Am I suffering from some heart disease or something? Eriol sarcastically thought as he sat down again, deciding that the time was still early.
"Eriol?"
And that twitch started again. Eriol winced a little as he turned around and jumped a little.
That girl…
What was her name again?
Tomoyo…
Eriol shrugged as Tomoyo smiled down at him. "So it's you indeed, Eriol." Tomoyo beamed, "Am I welcome?"
Silence as Eriol turned back to the sea wordlessly. A giggle followed before she settled down beside him.
It was a long time before anybody spoke.
"Eriol…?" Tomoyo finally broke the silence.
Eriol turned to look at her before he spoke, "Yeah?" Tomoyo smiled, "I thought you weren't going to speak at all." Eriol merely shrugged before he turned his attention back to the seas.
"You like the seas, Eriol?" Tomoyo asked, hugging herself close as she leant against her knees, gazing at Eriol.
Silence when Eriol nodded.
Tomoyo giggled as she stared back to the seas. "It's a nice place, really. You get to see all the beautiful waves crashing against shore…" She whispered softly.
Silence.
"What class are you in, Eriol?" She suddenly asked, gazing at the man beside her. Eriol remained unfazed, "2-6."
"Really!?" Tomoyo's face lit up, beaming brightly, "I'm in 2-6, too!" Eriol looked down at the innocent form, "But I didn't see you today."
Tomoyo nodded silently as she turned back to the sea, "I was actually in another class…But…I told the teacher I wanted to transfer out."
Silence followed when an almost inaudible voice spoke.
"Why…?"
Tomoyo let out a soft sigh as she sat up wordlessly. It was a long moment as silence overcame, Eriol looking at her expectantly.
How come she's gone quiet all of a sudden?
Tomoyo then stared at Eriol and smiled, "I was always getting bullied." Eriol frowned, "The boys in the class, isn't it?" Tomoyo slowly nodded as she hung down her head.
"They are always waiting for me after school…" She paused, "Sometimes it gets me afraid. I'm scared at times." Eriol bit his lips, "The boys in your old class are well-known in Shades for their fiery temper. Once you get yourself offended with them, they'll never let you off."
Silence.
"Didn't the principal know this?" Tomoyo asked. Eriol nodded, "Practically the whole school knew. But they did everything they could already. They gave the worst punishments anybody could received in life but it was no use. The principal wouldn't want to get them expelled."
Tomoyo slowly nodded in understanding, "…I see." Eriol nodded as both stared out to the sea again.
"What did they do to you?" Eriol asked, trying to sound not-so-concerned, making it more like a statement than a question. When he got no response, he looked down at the girl before him who was looking down at the sand.
Something's not right…
"…They bully me." Tomoyo finally said, not looking at his eyes.
"In what way?" Eriol couldn't help but asked, looking at the innocent form before him. He waited for a while before she looked up at him, smiling.
"Ne, it's not important, anyway." Tomoyo said before standing up, beaming, "I'll see you sometime around, ne?"
Eriol stood up, facing her, "You're a Japanese?" Tomoyo nodded, her smile unwavering, "And if I'm not wrong, you're from England, are you not?" Eriol nodded before she giggled.
"I'll see you around. Ja!" She waved before she ran off into the dawning night.
Eriol stared after her.
Something's really not right…All of a sudden, she seems so quiet… She's avoiding the question… She says they bully her… But in what way…?
Eriol shrugged.
Why do I care anyway?
Frowning, he was about to make his way back to Shades when something in his heart twitched again.
That same old feeling again.
And without really knowing why, he turned around, eyes squinting to get a closer look at the dense bushes beyond before the twitch in his heart became more painful. Wincing, he grabbed his chest as he stepped forward when something in him made him stopped.
Voices.
"So it's that beautiful swan again, gang!" A rough, hoarse voice spoke.
"She looks delicious!"
"So ripe!"
Eriol strained his ears to hear closer.
"Let me off! I didn't do anything to offend you!"
He froze.
Wasn't it…?
He listened on.
"Of course you didn't offend us, beautiful chick!"
"Hey! Why not we say we take her home with us and you know?"
Laughter was heard.
"TAKE HER BACK WITH US!"
"No! Leave me alone!"
"This is gonna be a beautiful night!"
"Hey, don't forget to give me a share of her!"
"Noooo! Leave me alone!"
Eriol stood rooted. It was indeed her voice…….She was in danger. Quickly without hesistating, Eriol barged into the bushes before coming face to face with four strangers and the panic-stricken Tomoyo.
Eriol stood silent as the four stangers sneered at him.
"So it's 'Mr. Snowman', I see." One of the man growled as Eriol's fists clenched.
"Leave her alone." Eriol replied, face remaining unfazed.
One of the men laughed evilly as he picked up a strong steel rod.
"You wanna play with me, huh? I'D LIKE TO SEE YOU TRY!!!!"
Eriol's face was one sheet of ice.
"I already told you to leave her alone." He took a step forward, fists clenched yet his face was calm as still waters.
"You'll regret this forever."
