I have no idea what to write so I will just skip to the part where Sakura comes in. That means you just might find out what happen to Tomoyo. Or I can just leave it till the next chapter. I don't know. I'm not mean so I will try to squeeze that information in maybe half of it? Fair enough?

Chapter 8: Arrival of Memories
When Tomoyo entered her house she ran up to her master bedroom and land of her queen size bed. She had decided to call Sakura. Tomoyo hadn't called that green-eyed goddess since the beginning of school. She misses hearing that sweet energetic voice, but she knew that Sakura is mostly out with Syaoran.
'Just hope she is home.' Tomoyo thought as the phone started ring.
"Moshi moshi? Kinomoto residence. Sakura speaking." Came an out of breath voice on the other line.
"Sakura its Tomoyo. Sorry I haven't called in a while I was busy." Tomoyo said dully. 'Wow I can't even think of anything to lie of? That was the best you can do Daidouji? 'I was busy'?' She thought stupidly to herself.
"Tomoyo I am so glad you have called. I wonder if you have made any friends yet?" Sakura asked over the phone. It is already in the middle of December and being the sweet kind Tomoyo she must have gotten about the whole school population to befriend her.
Tomoyo didn't know what to say. She had made friends. Eriol and Nakuru, but should she tell Sakura? No she thought she doesn't have to know everything going on in my life.
"Yes, but non of them can compare to you Sakura. I just see them as my classmates not anyone that can call my close friend'' Tomoyo said with a tint of sadness. How can she tell her best friend that she had befriend a guy that was as smart as her and as beautiful as a goddess? Indeed he is beautiful. Not many men can look that cute. Hell he probably looked better then half the snobby girls in her whole school.
Why was she thinking that way of him? She didn't know. They had become like best friends and she enjoyed it so much maybe too much. I mean she is supposed to be faithful to her best friend, but things are not going that way.
"Tomoyo I know that you miss me and I have missed you too, but shouldn't you just get friends you can talk with? Maybe not someone to talk secrets about, but just someone to fill your time." Sakura said sadly over the phone. She knew that Tomoyo just wanted to wallow in her self-pity for something she can never have. Yes Sakura knew that Tomoyo loved her more than a friend, but how can you tell someone that you have known for life that you don't love her that way?
Tomoyo was now really guilty. She had lied to her best friend because of some guy who is just a friend. 'Eriol is not as important as Sakura.' Tomoyo thought, but the other half thought. 'He is not? Are you sure? Are you positive' that part taunted making her more confused than ever.
"I know. Sakura I have to go homework and everything. I will see you soon." Tomoyo said calmly. Sakura said he goodbye. Tomoyo hanged up the phone and lied down on her bed and just stared at the pinkish-white ceiling.
'Why is it I can't tell Sakura about Eriol? I mean Eriol knows that my best friend is going to come over in winter break. So I should tell Sakura about Eriol, right? Eriol invited me to have a Christmas party because he and Nakuru want to meet my best friend and her boyfriend, Syaoran.' Tomoyo thought frustrated with the whole situation. Still confused with her thoughts she slowly drifted off to an uneasy sleep.
~~~~~~~
Today was the day. Sakura and Syaoran were arriving already. Can anyone believe that Tomoyo had lived her life without Sakura for about six months? Not including two phone conversations. Besides those had ended short.
Tomoyo had already told Eriol that they were coming (A/N: Not including their names in this). She also told him that her best friend believed that she has no real friends. Eriol of course questioned her why she didn't just say that she made friends? Tomoyo didn't know either so how can she tell him why? And that was what she told him. She told him she didn't know why.
Eriol understood. Kaho had called a few times to check on Eriol and his guardians. She also asked if he met any new friends in school. He had said 'no' and kept Tomoyo a secret. This was new for him too. To lie to someone who is everything to him. Besides Tomoyo didn't know anything about him as much as Kaho did. Not including him being engaged to the older women, but him being a magical being the reincarnation of the great Clow Reed.
They both didn't know why they were being so secretive. There was no reason for that right? Still they didn't tell the ones they love about the other. (A/N: This sounds like one weird affair, Ne?)
"Your leaving to pick them up now right?" Eriol asked as Tomoyo was over visiting his garden again. She had been there since early that morning. Eriol had just walked up to her. Tomoyo looked up at Eriol and nodded.
"I'm going soon I just needed some peace and quite till they arrive. This is my favorite place to relax and you know it." Tomoyo said in a sad voice.
"Yes I know because we have really good taste. I too like to relax here. What I don't get is why the sadness? She is your best friend is she not? Then aren't you suppose to jump with joy knowing someone is visiting you all the way from Japan?" Eriol asked. He suspected that Tomoyo had loved either her best friend or her best friend's boyfriend as because she is this sad that they are coming.
"Nothing very important." Tomoyo said before changing into one of her masks. "Do I look happy?"
"To me no, but to others?" Eriol said nodding sadly.
It is amazing what 6 months can do to two people that have never met. They seem like they knew each other since the dawn of time. They seem like the best of friends that knew each other's secret. Knew how the other is even if the whole wide world doesn't. That was how close they had become.
But still they had secrets that neither had really admitted to each other. One as why did she leave her hometown? The other is why is he so smart and wise for a 14 year old? They knew that the other had secrets that is so deep that not anyone can trust. So they just kept quite. They were not the one to ask improper questions to the other.
"Thank you. I will see you in a few days for the dinner party." Tomoyo said as she got up from her spot.
"What are you going to tell them?" Eriol asked as she called her driver to drive her to the airport and pick them up. Their flight lands at about 11 am and the time was already 10:30. She was going to run late, but she did not care. She needed some more time to think.
"That a classmate had invited me for a dinner party and that they are included." She replied as she hanged up the phone. Soon enough there was a honk in front of the reincarnation's house. "Bye.'' Tomoyo said walking away from him.
"Good luck." Eriol shouted a little so she can here her.
"I'll need it." Was heard as Tomoyo got out of sight from Eriol and exited the garden. 'Will I ever. I hope I won't let my mask slip.' Tomoyo thought bitterly when she arrival inside her limo. 'If I ever need to be away from those two I know I can go to Eriol's house.' Tomoyo thought gratefully.
~Airport~
'Where is she?' Sakura thought as she looked around for anyone with purple hair and pale skin. 'She should have been here by now.' She was worried for her best friend. Out of her whole life she had known Tomoyo to be always early and never late.
"Have you found her yet?" Sakura asked a cute messy haired lad to her left.
"Iie. Do you think she forgot that we were arriving today?" The amber eyed asked his cherry blossom. He was also getting a little jumpy. It just wasn't like Tomoyo at all to come late, mostly if it has something to do with Sakura.
Before Sakura could answer his question someone from a distance called her name. She looked around and found the purple hair lass running towards her. Sakura smiled at her and began to run to her also.
"Tomoyo!!!" Sakura screamed as she got a hold of her best friend and bear hugged her. Tomoyo laughed that sweet laugh.
"I have missed you and you too Syaoran." Tomoyo smiled through her sadness as Syaoran walked slowly over to the girls. 'Why couldn't he have gotten sick or something? I want to spend sometime with Sakura before she goes back and I can't really do it with him around.' Tomoyo thought bitterly. It was not in her to think such thoughts, but at least she hadn't said it out loud.
Syaoran nodded and gave Tomoyo a quick hug that surprised her. Syaoran was not the kind of person to give anyone a hug in public, but Sakura had her way. Her puppy eyes did it. Who could resist it? Not him.
"Well come on let us go to the limo." Tomoyo said as she took one of Sakura's bags and headed off to the sliding doors. Sakura and Syaoran picked up their stuff and followed Tomoyo outside.
On the way towards Tomoyo's house the car suddenly came to a sudden halt. Tomoyo, Sakura and Syaoran had to hang on to something as not to go crashing towards the front.
"What was that?" They asked in unison as the driver opened the shield that block the driver from hearing anything in the back.
"I am sorry Ms. Daidouji, but it seemed like a guy was running across the street when the light was green. I had to come to pull the brakes." He explained sacredly. The Daidouji family is known of their strictness so he was afraid that he might make the Mistress mad.
"It is alright Jason." Tomoyo said sweetly. "Now did we hit that guy?" She asked worriedly.
"No we didn't." Jason said as Tomoyo and the rest got out of the limo to see Aya sitting up and rubbing his head.
"Aya I am so sorry are you okay?" Tomoyo asked as she kneed down next to him and check his head.
"No it's okay. I am fine I think I just got a little bump on my head that is all, Tomoyo." Aya said as Tomoyo helped him up from the floor.
Both Sakura and Syaoran had thought in unison 'Who is he to Tomoyo?'
"Are you sure you don't need a doctor anything?" Tomoyo asked frightened that she might get sued or her driver for that matter. She really didn't care for Aya's welfare. Since the time of his arrival he had been trying so hard to get her to like him. He flirts and it annoys her to the end.
"I am fine. I guess getting almost run over by a limo got its advantages." The green eyed red head said back to his cheesy pick up lines.
'When will this guy quit?' Tomoyo thought going back to her sour mood. But that soon end as she remembered that Sakura and Syaoran was they're looking at them with curiosity in their eyes.
"He is a classmate." Tomoyo said sweetly though her annoyance to the red head. "And nothing more." She added as they looked at her search for more answer then 'classmate'.
'Why is it when someone flirts with me Sakura think that I like them back for some reason?' Tomoyo asked herself. She has no idea maybe it was because Tomoyo had never dated and Sakura saw it as a chance to get a boyfriend. But she didn't want a boyfriend she wanted a girlfriend. The girls name, Sakura Kinomoto.
As Aya was busy flirting his ass off, Sakura had been extra worried for Tomoyo. She knew that Aya was someone that is up to something and it was not good. She can feel it. Sakura had looked at Tomoyo that way to ask if he was something more then a classmate because what had happen about two years ago. It was heart breaking it was so unfair. She didn't want her best friend like that ever again.
~Flashback~
Sakura and Tomoyo were walking home after going to Twin Bells. It was the beginning of summer and well ladies go shopping. Sakura and Syaoran had been dating after the whole incident of the Void. Tomoyo, she had found love also. She found love in a certain azure-eyed and midnight dark hair boy. In other words, Eriol Hiiragizawa.
Since Sakura and Syaoran had been dating Tomoyo felt left out until Eriol had came back to Japan. It had almost been a year since Eriol and Tomoyo had become really close. Eriol with his flirting had flirted right into Tomoyo's lonely heart. He was just there for her when she was depressing about Sakura. Eriol had known everything along time ago and had confronted Tomoyo about it. She cried on him. Now she had moved on and fell in love with the charming reincarnation.
Sakura knew about Tomoyo's newfound love of the old master of the Clow Cards. Even if Tomoyo didn't want her to know she knew. I guess you can see other people that are meant to be, but just not yourself. She was dense enough to not have known about Syaoran's love for her so long ago. The thing was Sakura knew that Eriol had fallen for her best friend too, but couldn't admit it as because he was engaged to her old teacher, Ms. Mizuki.
They were walking home when Eriol appeared out of thin air. Something didn't seem right and they knew it. He looked different, but couldn't put their finger on it.
"Sakura can I talk to Daidouji, please? Eriol said with a tint of coldness. He had never shown any signs of being rude, but here he was ice cold. Another thing was notice Eriol had always called Tomoyo by her first name since they had became so close, but he just called her by her last name making her wince.
"Eriol are you okay? You seem a little mad." Sakura said worriedly as Eriol glared at them both like Syaoran had done when he first came.
"I am fine now can I talk to Daidouji alone? Eriol asked losing his patience.
Sakura nodded meekly and looked at Tomoyo before she ran off hiding so she can hear the conversation.
"Um so Eriol what is it that you need to talk about?" Tomoyo asked feverously. She was neither clearly not liking Eriol's tone nor the coldness of his face.
"I know you like me." Eriol said straight forward. Tomoyo tried to control her blush, but to no avail. Eriol continued on.
"To tell you the truth Daidouji I don't really like you. You know that I am in love with Kaho. She is the only one I will ever love. We are destined so you can just forget about it. Besides me and my fiancée are going back to England so we can get married and live together." Eriol finished not giving a damn how Tomoyo's heart was ripping apart as he said it so cold. So not like him.
"I know that you and Kaho are engaged that is why I didn't tell you my feelings and as for you going to England I hope that you will have a good life with her." Tomoyo screamed as tears were gushing out of her eyes one by one. She was not the kind of person to neither scream nor start breaking into tears, but this was one heartbreaking scene.
Sakura was just hiding behind the bushes looking absolutely shocked. She felt so sorry for Tomoyo. She had loved, but it was not returned. And he said it so unlike him.
Sakura ran up to her best friend and took her away from the happy looking Eriol. He had made her feel so much pain and he was happy? This was so unlike Eriol. But he didn't cast a spell on himself to make Tomoyo feel so unloved. Something happened, but what? She would think about it later right now Tomoyo needed to get though her heartbreak. Sakura was afraid that this much pain could make people do things so unlike them. 'Like suicide?' Sakura shook her head. No Tomoyo would never...
They had arrival at the Kinomoto Residence and were now that Sakura's room. Touya and Yukito was knocking downstairs when they found Tomoyo and Sakura walking towards her room. They knew that something was wrong so they just kept on doing what they were doing. Kero who was playing his video had shut his game after seeing the crying Tomoyo.
"The pain." Tomoyo kept on repeating as she was holding her chest on where her heart was. "I feel so much pain. My heart is twisting and turning. It won't stop. The pain." She whispered sadly. Who wouldn't? Who wouldn't be dying inside when the person you loved the most had said things like what Eriol had said to Tomoyo. Who? No one.
All Sakura could do was look at Tomoyo the girls who's heart shattered into billons and billons of pieces. This was the ultimate pain…a broken heart. Sakura now felt tears rolling down from her beautiful eyes. She couldn't help it her best friend was in love and now broken. Lost. She hugged her and cried with her.
"Why was he so harsh? Why was he so cold?" Tomoyo whispered so low as she was tried from so much crying.
"I don't know. I don't know." Sakura whispered back as the lone lass finally feel asleep after an hour of crying in pain. Pain so much pain. How can fate be so cruel?
Kero had finally spoken up after staying quite for a whole hour waiting for the time to speak.
"Sakura what happened to Tomoyo?" The yellow stuffed animal asked looking at Tomoyo's sleeping form. Tears were still coming out of her eyes even if she was asleep. It was so heartbreaking.
Sakura told her what happen and kero suddenly turned to Cerberus. "Kero what are you doing?" Sakura asked quite as not to wake up the poor girl.
"I am going to burn that reincarnation in to dust." The lion form said in rage. Kero loved Tomoyo like he was her own Mistress and after what Eriol had done I think everyone would agree to kill him. Tomoyo was unselfish and loved by all. No one could hate her.
"He does have magic kero he will only use it against you." Sakura said trying to calm the loin. Sakura herself wanted to hurt him, but Tomoyo needed her to be there when she wakes up. Besides even if Eriol had hurt her so Tomoyo would never wish pain among him. She loved him that much.
Sakura was still thinking. How can Eriol be so uncaring? Mostly when she was positive that Eriol had a thing for Tomoyo. Sakura forgot that again as Tomoyo started to twist and turn in her sleep. She bolts up from the bed and looked around her and started to form fresh tears.
She ran up to her best friend and again hugged her.
~End Of Flashback~
'And I still haven't understand why Eriol was being like that to Tomoyo.' Sakura was deep in her thoughts. She had snapped out of it when Syaoran had got a hold of her shoulder. She looked up at him as he smiled a sad one. He came over and visits Sakura that day. Sakura told him the story too and he felt like Kero, but rather have stayed and look after the fragile girl. She looked so unlike her. She didn't wear one of her mask and she looked so weak. The usual shine of hope is now dull.
Syaoran knew that Sakura was remembering that day. She had that sad look in her eyes like she would breakdown again. Like she would cry for her best friend's broken heart all over again. The pain to have to deal with someone so close to you feel that pain makes you so sad.
"Sakura, Syaoran come on we still have to go to my house you know? We can't stay in the streets with people behind us honking." Tomoyo said jokingly as she came up to her friends. "Are you two okay?" She asked. They were looking at one another sadly.
Sakura snapped out of it and smiled. "Sorry Tomoyo I was deep in thoughts. Sakura said as they got back into the limo. "So where did that guy, Aya, go?"
Tomoyo shrugs. "I don't know he said he was picking someone up and is late." Tomoyo answered truthfully.
To Be Continue....
A/N: I got too lazy to type...hehehe. Well after typing/writing/thinking of so many E+Ts my brain has been sucked dry. I hope you liked this chapter. It's sort of angst, ne? Well you know me...I am not a happy person so bad things have to come.
I will try to put another chapter up soon, but I am working on another project and I also want to finish it before putting it up. I already wrote too much so it would take awhile for me to enjoy typing my story again. So the next chapter will come out around my brithday, July 7th...With finals and regents I just don't have the time and enegry to do anything.
Chapter 9 is called 'Night'
Perview: More heartache and memories. Hopefully longer than this one.
KyteAura (^.^)
I have no idea what to write so I will just skip to the part where Sakura comes in. That means you just might find out what happen to Tomoyo. Or I can just leave it till the next chapter. I don't know. I'm not mean so I will try to squeeze that information in maybe half of it? Fair enough?

Chapter 8: Arrival of Memories
When Tomoyo entered her house she ran up to her master bedroom and land of her queen size bed. She had decided to call Sakura. Tomoyo hadn't called that green-eyed goddess since the beginning of school. She misses hearing that sweet energetic voice, but she knew that Sakura is mostly out with Syaoran.
'Just hope she is home.' Tomoyo thought as the phone started ring.
"Moshi moshi? Kinomoto residence. Sakura speaking." Came an out of breath voice on the other line.
"Sakura its Tomoyo. Sorry I haven't called in a while I was busy." Tomoyo said dully. 'Wow I can't even think of anything to lie of? That was the best you can do Daidouji? 'I was busy'?' She thought stupidly to herself.
"Tomoyo I am so glad you have called. I wonder if you have made any friends yet?" Sakura asked over the phone. It is already in the middle of December and being the sweet kind Tomoyo she must have gotten about the whole school population to befriend her.
Tomoyo didn't know what to say. She had made friends. Eriol and Nakuru, but should she tell Sakura? No she thought she doesn't have to know everything going on in my life.
"Yes, but non of them can compare to you Sakura. I just see them as my classmates not anyone that can call my close friend'' Tomoyo said with a tint of sadness. How can she tell her best friend that she had befriend a guy that was as smart as her and as beautiful as a goddess? Indeed he is beautiful. Not many men can look that cute. Hell he probably looked better then half the snobby girls in her whole school.
Why was she thinking that way of him? She didn't know. They had become like best friends and she enjoyed it so much maybe too much. I mean she is supposed to be faithful to her best friend, but things are not going that way.
"Tomoyo I know that you miss me and I have missed you too, but shouldn't you just get friends you can talk with? Maybe not someone to talk secrets about, but just someone to fill your time." Sakura said sadly over the phone. She knew that Tomoyo just wanted to wallow in her self-pity for something she can never have. Yes Sakura knew that Tomoyo loved her more than a friend, but how can you tell someone that you have known for life that you don't love her that way?
Tomoyo was now really guilty. She had lied to her best friend because of some guy who is just a friend. 'Eriol is not as important as Sakura.' Tomoyo thought, but the other half thought. 'He is not? Are you sure? Are you positive' that part taunted making her more confused than ever.
"I know. Sakura I have to go homework and everything. I will see you soon." Tomoyo said calmly. Sakura said he goodbye. Tomoyo hanged up the phone and lied down on her bed and just stared at the pinkish-white ceiling.
'Why is it I can't tell Sakura about Eriol? I mean Eriol knows that my best friend is going to come over in winter break. So I should tell Sakura about Eriol, right? Eriol invited me to have a Christmas party because he and Nakuru want to meet my best friend and her boyfriend, Syaoran.' Tomoyo thought frustrated with the whole situation. Still confused with her thoughts she slowly drifted off to an uneasy sleep.
~~~~~~~
Today was the day. Sakura and Syaoran were arriving already. Can anyone believe that Tomoyo had lived her life without Sakura for about six months? Not including two phone conversations. Besides those had ended short.
Tomoyo had already told Eriol that they were coming (A/N: Not including their names in this). She also told him that her best friend believed that she has no real friends. Eriol of course questioned her why she didn't just say that she made friends? Tomoyo didn't know either so how can she tell him why? And that was what she told him. She told him she didn't know why.
Eriol understood. Kaho had called a few times to check on Eriol and his guardians. She also asked if he met any new friends in school. He had said 'no' and kept Tomoyo a secret. This was new for him too. To lie to someone who is everything to him. Besides Tomoyo didn't know anything about him as much as Kaho did. Not including him being engaged to the older women, but him being a magical being the reincarnation of the great Clow Reed.
They both didn't know why they were being so secretive. There was no reason for that right? Still they didn't tell the ones they love about the other. (A/N: This sounds like one weird affair, Ne?)
"Your leaving to pick them up now right?" Eriol asked as Tomoyo was over visiting his garden again. She had been there since early that morning. Eriol had just walked up to her. Tomoyo looked up at Eriol and nodded.
"I'm going soon I just needed some peace and quite till they arrive. This is my favorite place to relax and you know it." Tomoyo said in a sad voice.
"Yes I know because we have really good taste. I too like to relax here. What I don't get is why the sadness? She is your best friend is she not? Then aren't you suppose to jump with joy knowing someone is visiting you all the way from Japan?" Eriol asked. He suspected that Tomoyo had loved either her best friend or her best friend's boyfriend as because she is this sad that they are coming.
"Nothing very important." Tomoyo said before changing into one of her masks. "Do I look happy?"
"To me no, but to others?" Eriol said nodding sadly.
It is amazing what 6 months can do to two people that have never met. They seem like they knew each other since the dawn of time. They seem like the best of friends that knew each other's secret. Knew how the other is even if the whole wide world doesn't. That was how close they had become.
But still they had secrets that neither had really admitted to each other. One as why did she leave her hometown? The other is why is he so smart and wise for a 14 year old? They knew that the other had secrets that is so deep that not anyone can trust. So they just kept quite. They were not the one to ask improper questions to the other.
"Thank you. I will see you in a few days for the dinner party." Tomoyo said as she got up from her spot.
"What are you going to tell them?" Eriol asked as she called her driver to drive her to the airport and pick them up. Their flight lands at about 11 am and the time was already 10:30. She was going to run late, but she did not care. She needed some more time to think.
"That a classmate had invited me for a dinner party and that they are included." She replied as she hanged up the phone. Soon enough there was a honk in front of the reincarnation's house. "Bye.'' Tomoyo said walking away from him.
"Good luck." Eriol shouted a little so she can here her.
"I'll need it." Was heard as Tomoyo got out of sight from Eriol and exited the garden. 'Will I ever. I hope I won't let my mask slip.' Tomoyo thought bitterly when she arrival inside her limo. 'If I ever need to be away from those two I know I can go to Eriol's house.' Tomoyo thought gratefully.
~Airport~
'Where is she?' Sakura thought as she looked around for anyone with purple hair and pale skin. 'She should have been here by now.' She was worried for her best friend. Out of her whole life she had known Tomoyo to be always early and never late.
"Have you found her yet?" Sakura asked a cute messy haired lad to her left.
"Iie. Do you think she forgot that we were arriving today?" The amber eyed asked his cherry blossom. He was also getting a little jumpy. It just wasn't like Tomoyo at all to come late, mostly if it has something to do with Sakura.

I want to spend sometime with Sakura before she goes back and I can't really do it with him around.' Tomoyo thought bitterly. It was not in her to think such thoughts, but at least she hadn't said it out loud.
Syaoran nodded and gave Tomoyo a quick hug that surprised her. Syaoran was not the kind of person to give anyone a hug in public, but Sakura had her way. Her puppy eyes did it. Who could resist it? Not him.
"Well come on let us go to the limo." Tomoyo said as she took one of Sakura's bags and headed off to the sliding doors. Sakura and Syaoran picked up their stuff and followed Tomoyo outside.
On the way towards Tomoyo's house the car suddenly came to a sudden halt. Tomoyo, Sakura and Syaoran had to hang on to something as not to go crashing towards the front.
"What was that?" They asked in unison as the driver opened the shield that block the driver from hearing anything in the back.
"I am sorry Ms. Daidouji, but it seemed like a guy was running across the street when the light was green. I had to come to pull the brakes." He explained sacredly. The Daidouji family is known of their strictness so he was afraid that he might make the Mistress mad.
"It is alright Jason." Tomoyo said sweetly. "Now did we hit that guy?" She asked worriedly.
"No we didn't." Jason said as Tomoyo and the rest got out of the limo to see Aya sitting up and rubbing his head.
"Aya I am so sorry are you okay?" Tomoyo asked as she kneed down next to him and check his head.
"No it's okay. I am fine I think I just got a little bump on my head that is all, Tomoyo." Aya said as Tomoyo helped him up from the floor.
Both Sakura and Syaoran had thought in unison 'Who is he to Tomoyo?'
"Are you sure you don't need a doctor anything?" Tomoyo asked frightened that she might get sued or her driver for that matter. She really didn't care for Aya's welfare. Since the time of his arrival he had been trying so hard to get her to like him. He flirts and it annoys her to the end.
"I am fine. I guess getting almost run over by a limo got its advantages." The green eyed red head said back to his cheesy pick up lines.
'When will this guy quit?' Tomoyo thought going back to her sour mood. But that soon end as she remembered that Sakura and Syaoran was they're looking at them with curiosity in their eyes.
"He is a classmate." Tomoyo said sweetly though her annoyance to the red head. "And nothing more." She added as they looked at her search for more answer then 'classmate'.
'Why is it when someone flirts with me Sakura think that I like them back for some reason?' Tomoyo asked herself. She has no idea maybe it was because Tomoyo had never dated and Sakura saw it as a chance to get a boyfriend. But she didn't want a boyfriend she wanted a girlfriend. The girls name, Sakura Kinomoto.
As Aya was busy flirting his ass off, Sakura had been extra worried for Tomoyo. She knew that Aya was someone that is up to something and it was not good. She can feel it. Sakura had looked at Tomoyo that way to ask if he was something more then a classmate because what had happen about two years ago. It was heart breaking it was so unfair. She didn't want her best friend like that ever again.
~Flashback~
Sakura and Tomoyo were walking home after going to Twin Bells. It was the beginning of summer and well ladies go shopping. Sakura and Syaoran had been dating after the whole incident of the Void. Tomoyo, she had found love also. She found love in a certain azure-eyed and midnight dark hair boy. In other words, Eriol Hiiragizawa.
Since Sakura and Syaoran had been dating Tomoyo felt left out until Eriol had came back to Japan. It had almost been a year since Eriol and Tomoyo had become really close. Eriol with his flirting had flirted right into Tomoyo's lonely heart. He was just there for her when she was depressing about Sakura. Eriol had known everything along time ago and had confronted Tomoyo about it. She cried on him. Now she had moved on and fell in love with the charming reincarnation.
Sakura knew about Tomoyo's newfound love of the old master of the Clow Cards. Even if Tomoyo didn't want her to know she knew. I guess you can see other people that are meant to be, but just not yourself. She was dense enough to not have known about Syaoran's love for her so long ago. The thing was Sakura knew that Eriol had fallen for her best friend too, but couldn't admit it as because he was engaged to her old teacher, Ms. Mizuki.
They were walking home when Eriol appeared out of thin air. Something didn't seem right and they knew it. He looked different, but couldn't put their finger on it.
"Sakura can I talk to Daidouji, please? Eriol said with a tint of coldness. He had never shown any signs of being rude, but here he was ice cold. Another thing was notice Eriol had always called Tomoyo by her first name since they had became so close, but he just called her by her last name making her wince.
"Eriol are you okay? You seem a little mad." Sakura said worriedly as Eriol glared at them both like Syaoran had done when he first came.
"I am fine now can I talk to Daidouji alone? Eriol asked losing his patience.
Sakura nodded meekly and looked at Tomoyo before she ran off hiding so she can hear the conversation.
"Um so Eriol what is it that you need to talk about?" Tomoyo asked feverously. She was neither clearly not liking Eriol's tone nor the coldness of his face.
"I know you like me." Eriol said straight forward. Tomoyo tried to control her blush, but to no avail. Eriol continued on.
"To tell you the truth Daidouji I don't really like you. You know that I am in love with Kaho. She is the only one I will ever love. We are destined so you can just forget about it. Besides me and my fiancée are going back to England so we can get married and live together." Eriol finished not giving a damn how Tomoyo's heart was ripping apart as he said it so cold. So not like him.
"I know that you and Kaho are engaged that is why I didn't tell you my feelings and as for you going to England I hope that you will have a good life with her." Tomoyo screamed as tears were gushing out of her eyes one by one. She was not the kind of person to neither scream nor start breaking into tears, but this was one heartbreaking scene.
Sakura was just hiding behind the bushes looking absolutely shocked. She felt so sorry for Tomoyo. She had loved, but it was not returned. And he said it so unlike him.
Sakura ran up to her best friend and took her away from the happy looking Eriol. He had made her feel so much pain and he was happy? This was so unlike Eriol. But he didn't cast a spell on himself to make Tomoyo feel so unloved. Something happened, but what? She would think about it later right now Tomoyo needed to get though her heartbreak. Sakura was afraid that this much pain could make people do things so unlike them. 'Like suicide?' Sakura shook her head. No Tomoyo would never...
They had arrival at the Kinomoto Residence and were now that Sakura's room. Touya and Yukito was knocking downstairs when they found Tomoyo and Sakura walking towards her room. They knew that something was wrong so they just kept on doing what they were doing. Kero who was playing his video had shut his game after seeing the crying Tomoyo.
"The pain." Tomoyo kept on repeating as she was holding her chest on where her heart was. "I feel so much pain. My heart is twisting and turning. It won't stop. The pain." She whispered sadly. Who wouldn't? Who wouldn't be dying inside when the person you loved the most had said things like what Eriol had said to Tomoyo. Who? No one.
All Sakura could do was look at Tomoyo the girls who's heart shattered into billons and billons of pieces. This was the ultimate pain…a broken heart. Sakura now felt tears rolling down from her beautiful eyes. She couldn't help it her best friend was in love and now broken. Lost. She hugged her and cried with her.
"Why was he so harsh? Why was he so cold?" Tomoyo whispered so low as she was tried from so much crying.
"I don't know. I don't know." Sakura whispered back as the lone lass finally feel asleep after an hour of crying in pain. Pain so much pain. How can fate be so cruel?
Kero had finally spoken up after staying quite for a whole hour waiting for the time to speak.
"Sakura what happened to Tomoyo?" The yellow stuffed animal asked looking at Tomoyo's sleeping form. Tears were still coming out of her eyes even if she was asleep. It was so heartbreaking.
Sakura told her what happen and kero suddenly turned to Cerberus. "Kero what are you doing?" Sakura asked quite as not to wake up the poor girl.
"I am going to burn that reincarnation in to dust." The lion form said in rage. Kero loved Tomoyo like he was her own Mistress and after what Eriol had done I think everyone would agree to kill him. Tomoyo was unselfish and loved by all. No one could hate her.
"He does have magic kero he will only use it against you." Sakura said trying to calm the loin. Sakura herself wanted to hurt him, but Tomoyo needed her to be there when she wakes up. Besides even if Eriol had hurt her so Tomoyo would never wish pain among him. She loved him that much.
Sakura was still thinking. How can Eriol be so uncaring? Mostly when she was positive that Eriol had a thing for Tomoyo. Sakura forgot that again as Tomoyo started to twist and turn in her sleep. She bolts up from the bed and looked around her and started to form fresh tears.
She ran up to her best friend and again hugged her.
~End Of Flashback~
'And I still haven't understand why Eriol was being like that to Tomoyo.' Sakura was deep in her thoughts. She had snapped out of it when Syaoran had got a hold of her shoulder. She looked up at him as he smiled a sad one. He came over and visits Sakura that day. Sakura told him the story too and he felt like Kero, but rather have stayed and look after the fragile girl. She looked so unlike her. She didn't wear one of her mask and she looked so weak. The usual shine of hope is now dull.
Syaoran knew that Sakura was remembering that day. She had that sad look in her eyes like she would breakdown again. Like she would cry for her best friend's broken heart all over again. The pain to have to deal with someone so close to you feel that pain makes you so sad.
"Sakura, Syaoran come on we still have to go to my house you know? We can't stay in the streets with people behind us honking." Tomoyo said jokingly as she came up to her friends. "Are you two okay?" She asked. They were looking at one another sadly.
Sakura snapped out of it and smiled. "Sorry Tomoyo I was deep in thoughts. Sakura said as they got back into the limo. "So where did that guy, Aya, go?"
Tomoyo shrugs. "I don't know he said he was picking someone up and is late." Tomoyo answered truthfully.
