Oh well, On with the story.......
Untouchable
Chapter four:
Eriol shaded Tomoyo with the umbrella as she walked quietly staring at the wet ground, a sad longing look in her eyes.
"Do you think that this world is too good to be true?" she asked suddenly
"What do you mean??"
"Well, I guess I'm trying to say that maybe this world was never meant to be enjoyed to the fullest by just one person, that even after you leave this world, you haven't done all that you could do."
Eriol looked at her confusedly.
She smiled at his bewilderment, "I mean, just think about all of those lost opportunities that could've been taken, that you could've used to make your life even the slightest bit better... Don't you ever feel that you've missed out on something?"
"Sometimes....."
"If you could, would you go back in time and change the way things would've gone?...."
".....No, I don't think so, because if you change one thing you did imagine how many chances that you had before would have disappeared....."
"Yeah, I guess your right......"
"Would you? Go back in time to change something that you had missed out on?"
"I'm not so sure anymore,"
"Why??"
"Well, I don't really know what I want, I used to know, know exactly what a wanted, but then this thing came up and nowadays I'm not too sure. Why are we even talking about this?? I thought we were meant to be discussing history......"
"Ah yes, but you were the one who brought this subject, so your mother must get upset at you instead of me, I always meant to talk about the history project." He said sarcastically.
"You're just too clever for your own good......"
Eriol smiled as she finally beamed genuinely.
"So... history, what event do you want to do??"
"I'm not sure...."
"Well, a topic, what topic interests you??"
"Ummm.... I'm not too sure....."
"If you aren't sure, how are we going to do this project??"
Eriol laughed, "No idea whatsoever."
"We're here......" Tomoyo said sadly.
"Oh, yeah, your home....."
"I'd invite you to come in, but my mother probably wouldn't like that...."
"Maybe I could bump into you tomorrow morning on the way to school......."
Tomoyo smiled gladly, "maybe...."
Tomoyo walked into the house a smile on her face.
"Tomoyo, koko ni kite....." Tomoyo's mother said form the next room.
Tomoyo entered, still wet from the rain.
Sonomi approached her, touching her wet hair, "Tomoyo, what did I tell you about getting caught in the rain."
"I did it on purpose Okaasan....."
"You're just dying to get sick aren't you??"
"......."
"Anyway, that's not the reason I called you in here...... The boy, Tomoyo, what did I tell you about getting close to any more people?"
"It would cause more pain than necessary......"
"Yes, now what are you going to do tomorrow?......"
"Sever all connections with him and anyone else...." she sighed heavily, knowing her mothers drill.
"Good girl," Sonomi smiled at her one and only daughter sadly, "I don't want things to be like this for you, Tomoyo, you know that, don't you??"
"Hai, okaasan."
"If things were different....."
"I know Okaasan," Tomoyo forced a smile, "It's for my benefit and everyone else's, the less people I know, the better."
"Be strong, Tomoyo....." She smiled gently hugging her, "It'll only be for a little while longer......." She said sadly, her voice unsteady.
"Daijoubu ne, Okaasan, everything will be alright....." Tomoyo smiled softly, before making her way up the stairs towards her room.
Eriol waited outside the Daidouji manner, staring at his watch every now and then. He had waited here for ten minutes, for sure she had seen him waiting.
He looked up as something stirred with movement but only saw one of Tomoyo's bodyguards emerge from the manor and walk down to the gate.
"Is Daidouji-san coming to school today??" he asked politely
"Tomoyo-sama has already left for school with her mother, Daidouji-sama has instructed me to tell you that she expects to see no more of you around her daughter, understood??" she ordered in a overpowering voice.
"Doushite??"
"I'm not entitled to answer that......"
Eriol looked at the ground before walking away from the gate and towards school.
Eriol entered the classroom and saw Tomoyo sitting in her seat, head resting in her hands.
He approached her silently kneeling in front of her desk.
"You weren't there this morning, daijoubu ka??"
"Hai, just a bit of a headache......" she said finally looking up, surprised to see Eriol looking at her dearly.
He smiled as she looked up at him surprised.
"Hiiragizawa-kun??!!"
"Hai, that's me...."
"Ano.....sorry I wasn't there, but I must have no more to do with you......."
"I got the message already, don't worry about it??"
"Y..You're not mad??"
"How could I be mad with you??" he smiled, "it was your mother's decision anyway, and I must respect that......"
"Really??"
"I just respect her making that decision, not like I'm going to obey it..... we're partners in the history project anyway......."
Tomoyo looked at the ground, "yeah, about that...... Have you decided what we're going to do??"
"Why am I to decide what we are going to do for the project??"
"My....my decision is unimportant......" She said softly.
"Unimportant??!! Whoever told you that??"
"No one......don't worry......."
"Well, I've been thinking about maybe the end of isolation for Japan......"
"Great," she said brightly, "We'll do that....."
"You aren't going to argue and want to do something else??"
"Why should I?? You're decision is fine....."
"But Aiko always objects to my decisions...."
Tomoyo smiled sadly, "Well, I'm not Tamado-san, am I?"
"Daidouji-san.....I didn't mean......"
"Daijoubu.....I understand, you can stop calling me Daidouji-san as well, it seems so formal.....I don't really like it......"
"Aa....Gomen ne, Tomoyo-san. You can call me Eriol if you want too"
Tomoyo smiled, "I think you had better sit down, the sensei is here and waiting for you."
Eriol looked around the room at everyone staring at him. He flushed bright red before sitting down behind Tomoyo.
Tomoyo sat in the library her head pounding away. She hadn't had her headaches for a while now and the pain struck her with great force.
At times she just wanted to rip open her head or try hitting it on the table until it stopped, but things like this would never end, they'd just continue until everything was over.
Sometimes she wished that it would be over, that all the pain would stop, but then she'd remember all the things she'd have to do before that.
Each day she'd remind herself the things she had to do before she left, telling Eriol how she felt was the first thing on her list, yet it always seemed to get pushed back mentally.
"Tomoyo-san?....." a familiar voice asked uncertainly
She looked up, "Touya-kun..... What are you doing here??"
"Looking for you....." he smiled.
"My mother sent you, huh??"
"Aa..... She's worried about you Tomoyo-san......"
"Tell her I'm fine......"
"I'm worried about you, Tomoyo-san, and honestly I don't believe one word you're saying..."
"Tomoyo-san......" Another voice called from among the shelves, "I think I've found something....." Eriol stopped, seeing Touya talking to Tomoyo.
"I thought you said you to your mother you were going to stay away from him....." Touya said irritably.
"He's my partner for a project....." She hissed to him, "Ano..... Touya- kun, this is Hiiragizawa Eriol, a friend of mine....."
"We've met before, Sakura-san no oniichan ne??"
"Hai." Touya replied an untrusting look on his face.
"Ano..... Tomoyo-san, this book is really, there's lots of information in here......"
Tomoyo turned to Touya, "Ja ne, Touya-kun.....pick me up in about an hour."
Touya left hesitantly, continuously looking over his shoulder.
"Sorry about that, he worries about me a lot....."
"I don't blame him, you must be like a little sister to him......"
"In a way....I guess..."
"ERIOL-KUN!!!!!!!!!!" Aiko's voice called over the room.
She ran towards the pair sitting at one of the study tables and clung onto his arm possessively.
"Eriol-kun," she crooned, "Wont you come with me shopping......"
"Aiko, I have work to do, you must have work too."
"It can be done later....Onegai Eriol-kun....." she whined.
"Aiko," Eriol said trying to pull her off his arm, "I made a promise to Tomoyo that I'd work in the history project today......."
"Eriol-kun......" she whined.
"Maybe another day......"
"Yubikiri??" she asked holding out her little finger.
"Yubikiri....." Eriol smiled, shaking it with his own.
She stood up scowling at Tomoyo as she left.
"She doesn't like me much....." Tomoyo said as Aiko walked out of the library scowling at Tomoyo once more.
"You shouldn't worry about her..... She's just......"
"Possessive of you??"
"I wouldn't call it that......"
"You're very lucky to have someone like that......."
"Lucky??"
"You know, to have someone who cares about you that much......"
Eriol looked at Tomoyo puzzled as she bent her head down and continued to write notes.
Tomoyo walked around the bleak car park, Touya nowhere to be seen.
He was late, or maybe she was early.
She looked up at a hint of movement and saw Aiko standing on the other side of the car park walking towards her.
"Tamado-san, what are you doing here??" Tomoyo smiled sweetly.
Aiko scowled at her, pushing her to the ground, "Don't play sweet with me Daidouji, I know what you're after."
Tomoyo sat on the ground, mud staining her white school skirt.
"I d...don't know what you mean....." Tomoyo stuttered.
"Listen...I saw Eriol first, He's mine.....don't try to take him away from me...."
"But I'm not......"
Aiko grabbed Tomoyo's hair and pulled hard, causing Tomoyo to scream in pain.
"Stay away from him, do you understand?! He's off-limits for someone like you...."
With that Aiko walked off, leaving Tomoyo sitting in the car park, sobbing in pain.
She rubbed her head, the pain from her headache worse than ever the remarks Aiko made ringing in her head.
She got up and went to wait by the steps, Touya's car pulling into the car park the minute she sat down.
He saw her covered in mud and raced up to her, "Tomoyo-san, what happened??"
"S..she...she..." she mumbled before collapsing into Touya's arms.
A.N: Dah dah daaaahhhhh.....suspense music, well, it's not really a cliffy, so I can't really have suspense music, but if you think it's a cliffy then it can be a cliffy.
Whatever you want.
Well, that's chappie four out of the way, now for chapter five.....*sigh* so long to go.....
Oh well, Read and review!!!
Sorry guys 'bout the long wait, I just couldn't figure out where to go since the last chappie.
I've got the end all figured out and stuff, it's just the middle...... hehehe....
