Disclamier: I do NOT own CCS.


Thank for all who reviewed. I'm sorrie this chapter took so long and is still short. The thing is I had writer's block, that and because school was out.

P.S About the age of Nakuru, does it really matter? As long as she is still her genki self that is what counts. Right?

P.S.S I am trying not to make this fic have too much OOCness but its kind of leading to that. I need some people to have bad attitudes once in awhile because that what makes it intresting. Ne? OHOHOHOHO (wow I'm becoming alot like Tomoyo. Next thing you know I will have a camcorder wherever I go taping my best friend)

Chapter 4: Intruder


As time draws closer to the first day of school, Tomoyo has been spending her days and times exploring England. She already checked out the school she was going to, went shopping in malls for new clothes and went to parks to swing on the swings.

~A Week Before School Starts~

Tomoyo was just lying on the sofa channel surfing. Since she had been to almost all the sites of England and right now was bored to death.

'What haven't I done the times I've been here?' Tomoyo asked herself as she got off the sofa and looked out the window. ' Well since I have been here, I have never looked around the neighborhood at least not while jumping on the car so my driver can get me to malls and stuff'

With that she went upstairs, changed, came back down and headed towards the door. She started walking to the left of her house and after a few minutes of walking she had stopped in front of the house right of her owns. Tomoyo now was looking pass a fence to an entrancing garden. The view was magical; with her hands she unlocked the fence and entered the garden.

'Wow there are all kinds of flowers and trees. Wait...And some of them aren't even supposed to be in bloom. However, it is very beautiful...' Tomoyo stopped her thinking as she saw a tall Plum Blossom Tree. She walked over to it. 'Why do I feel so drawn to this tree? Besides my name meaning it.'

At that moment there was a *CRASH* noise coming from inside a house. Which since the house was in front of the garden the owner of the house is the owner of this certain garden.

'Where am I...?' she thought as if snapping out of a trance. 'Oh. I should leave before I get caught.' With that she walked out of the garden and back home where it is safe.

~Eriol's house~

Eriol was looking outside of his window. He had choose this room because it had the perfect view of the garden and mostly that certain tree. Looking out the window he saw a figure that has long dark hair. He saw her walking towards his most favorite spot, Plum Blossom Tree. He would have spoke from outside his window but he was entranced no words came out.

'Who is she and what is she doing on my property?' Eriol wondered as he felted a werid sensation in his heart. 'I feel like I know her...But where?'

*CRASH* was heard from outside his door. Eriol turned around facing the sound, he shook his head. Turning around facing back to the window the girl he once saw near the tree was now gone.

'Why did I feel so...connected with this stranger?' Eriol thought, however he soon erased the question from his mind as he went outside the room to see the damage control done by the helplessly hyped up Spinel.

"Nakuru come here please" Eriol said after he had calm Spinel down and fixed the kitchen that had looked like it was hit by a tornado.

"Master Eriol I swear I didn't feed Suppi sweets. He was the one that..."Nakuru whined as she came into the living room where he sat.

"It's not that. I mean I'll punish you next time. Have Kaho called yet?" Eriol asked since she was the one who answer the phone.

"Yes she had master. She called just before Suppi started wreaking the kitchen. She had said she was in Japan visiting Sakura, the card mistress, and friends." Nakuru explained. Oh how she hated that Kaho. She knows that that piece of trash did something to Eriol. Nakuru is always sweet and genki just like Sakura, but when it comes to Kaho she just...

"Did she say when she will be coming back?" Eriol questioned again as Nakuru was cursing Kaho in her mind. It was lucky that Eriol couldn't read anyones minds anymore. Still he had some power.

"I think she said something about winter break. When you have vacation from school." Nakuru repiled. " Can I go now?" she asked sweetly 'Besides I don't want to talk anymore about HER.' She added bitterly to herself. It's not that she is in love with her master but she want to protect his well being. As because he does have human emotions and is confused.

~Back to Tomoyo~

Tomoyo had just came home and since it was now about 10pm in Japan so she decide to call up Sakura. She promised her best friend she would call her almost everyday but just didn't. Besides Sakura would understand.

"Moshi Moshi. Kinomoto residents. Sakura speaking" A sweet voice said on the other line.

"Hello Sakura. I'm sorry I haven't called you after I been here so long. I had been busy with stuff" Tomoyo said as she set herself down on her bed talking on the cordless phone.

"TOMOYO!!!" Sakura squealed as Tomoyo had to push the phone away from her ear as not wanting to go deaf.

"I've miss you so much, Tomoyo. Guess what? After you had left Ms. Mizuki had came back. She is even more beautiful." Sakurua continued.

"Sakura? Who is Ms. Mizuki?" Tomoyo asked confused.

~Sakura's house~

'HOEE I forgot.' Sakura thought. She felt sorry for her best friend to have to go through what she had.

"Never mind, Tomoyo you don't know her." She replied back.

~Tomoyo~

'Why did Sakura mentions someone I don't even know then says never mind?' Tomoyo thought even more confused. ' I feel like I had heard of that name before but...where?' Soon she had snapped out of her thoughts as Sakura was now talking about something like school...winter...visit...HER??.

"I'm sorry Sakura I didn't hear what you had just said. Can you please repeat it?" Tomoyo interupted

"I know school hadn't even started yet but I missed you. So me and Syaoran is coming to visit you winter vacation. You don't mind do you? I know you have more than enough room" Sakura voice said almost pleading to let her visit. And since Tomoyo didn't have the heart to say 'no' to her best friend and crush she agreed.

'This will be intresting.' She though bitterly to herself as she hanged up the phone.'Great I just can't wait to be tortured even more. Having a cold winters vacation alone would have been great but NOOO. I just HAD to agreed to be suffered even more looking at Sakura and Li snuggle in a blanket and all those sweet lovesick things they do.

~Sakura~

'I wonder if Tomoyo and Eriol had met yet. I hope that will never happen. If she ever does I pray to Kami that she won't remember. However I'm sure it worked.'



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A/N: Ok that was a intresting chapter.

Q: Why does Sakura NOT want Tomoyo to meet Eriol? And what worked?


Anyways I'm sorry the next chapter won't be up soon. Remember school is STILL out but I'll try to make time to type the next chapter up. In addition about the next chapter it is going to be shorter than this chapter. Gomen. I hope you will all review and I don't mind flames but really now I know how other authors feel when they write a story and gets reviews (good and bad).

P.S: I just thought of a one-shot angst songfic of Eriol dumping Kaho for Tomoyo. Should I put it up? If so put it in your reviews.

Ja Ne... For now.
