A/N: I promised everyone a new story, so here it is. I didn't know if I was going to have time to write because of an unexpected trip to the opera. I saw Carmen, and it was free. There's nothing like a free show! Anyways, I have to thank night child for her extremely long review and suggestions. I'm going to use your Rika and Kai idea, if you don't mind. I'd like to thank my fans since Destined Love, and the new people along the way. Thanks!

Foreword: White Day is a Japanese tradition (maybe even Chinese too, but I don't know) that takes place a month after Valentine's Day. It's a chance for the girls to thank the boys. This is a sequel to my last story, Valentine Sweethearts, which is an extension to Destined Love. I guess the only thing you have to know is that Kai Ichimaya is Rika's dark haired boyfriend, and he's also a poet. All the couples would be featured in this story, but I'm starting with E&T and R&K. I would have started with S&S or even C&T, but I don't have any ideas for those pairings yet. Oh, and when it comes to my writing, major mush and fluff warnings are applied!

Chapter 1: Songs and Surprises

~*~*~*~*~

Tomoyo Daidouji was pacing back and forth in her room. After her boyfriend's Valentine's Day surprise, she felt so helpless when it came to thanking him. White Day was coming soon, and she had to express her gratitude in one way or another. She fell back first on her bed, trying to collect her memories to see if she could think of anything he might like.

* Two weeks ago *

Eriol Hiiragizawa was driving down the countryside with his girlfriend who was gleefully taking in her surroundings. He had picked a spot that was well known for its beautiful plum trees. The air current was playfully blowing in all different directions, while still staying true to a subtle pattern.

"Oh Eriol," Tomoyo swooned. "I've never seen so many plum blossoms in one place! They're all so gorgeous!"

"Not as gorgeous as the Plum blossom that I'm looking at now," Eriol replied casually.

Tomoyo turned her head to try to see what he was taking about before she realized that he meant her. That's when she blushed.

"You're such a teaser," she chided in a playful manor, snuggling to his side so she could wrap her arms around his waist for the right fit.

"I love spending time with you," Eriol said softly as he placed a lingering kiss on her brow, grazing his chin on her smooth bangs. "It's some of the best memories that I'm making."

"I love being with you too, you know," Tomoyo said. "I even miss you when you're not around!"

"Same here!" he answered with a laugh. "I wish I had a picture of you so I could admire you ravishing beauty when I'm not with you."

That comment made Tomoyo blush more than necessary as she swatted his arm. Eriol just swiftly took her hand and gave it a gentleman's kiss. There was no one who he loved more.

* End of flashback *

Tomoyo sat up with a wide smile. She knew what she was going to do. The question was if she was going to have enough time.

~*~(Rika's House)~*~

Rika Sasaki was absentmindedly practicing the piano as she tried to think of something to do for White Day, which was coming soon.

'There must be something that I could do that he'd like,' she thought to herself.

Rika got up, and decided to go for a walk. She had a special place that she would go to when ever she wanted to think. Suddenly, a smiled crept on her features as she thought back to the last time she was with her boyfriend.

* Last week *

Rika grinned when she walked into class and saw Kai Ichimaya unconsciously scribbling verses on a piece of paper in front of him. She loved looking at him when he was deep in thought. Kai didn't even recognize her presence until she wrapped her arms around his neck and rested her chin on his shoulder. He smiled as he turned his head enough to give Rika an unexpected kiss on the corner of her mouth.

"What are you doing?" Rika asked in a melodic voice.

"I'm just trying to write another poem," he answered with a smile. "Have you ever had writer's block?"

Rika thought back to all the times she tried to compose her first song. It wasn't the easiest task to achieve, but she did it. In fact it was around that time she found her special place.

"Writer's block can be tricky," she said. "But don't worry, if anyone could over come it, I know it will be you."

Rika saw Kai closed his eyes to savor the caress that she left on his temple before she went to her seat. She was so lucky that he was her boyfriend. He deserved something special for White Day.

* End of flashback *

~*~(Tomoyo's House)~*~

'There, that should do it,' Tomoyo mentally reflected as she looked at her gift for Eriol. 'But this doesn't seem enough. What else can I do?'

The chime from the doorbell distracted Tomoyo from her thoughts.

"Coming!" she called out to the person behind the door. She didn't know who it was because she wasn't expecting company.

"Rika! What a surprise!" she cried. "Please, come in!"

"Hey Tomoyo, sorry to drop in without warning, but I just got this great White Day idea," she began. "But I'm going to need your help. The best part is, that it's something that we can do together for both Eriol and Kai."

"That's incredible Rika!" Tomoyo exclaimed. "I can't wait to hear what you're thinking of!"

"It's pretty simple, but we should get started right away because the more time we have to prepare, the better," Rika informed.

"I'm ready when ever you are," Tomoyo answered with a smile. She had a feeling that Rika's plan would be a special addition to her White Day surprise.

~*~(White Day)~*~

The school day was over, and after hours of playful pestering, Eriol was going to have the surprise that Tomoyo couldn't stop taking about. She brought him in the living room where he could wait for what ever she had hiding.

"Here you go, Eriol," Tomoyo said as she handed him a box. "Happy White Day."

Eriol carefully took the box out of Tomoyo's hands as he slowly untied the ribbon and started to unwrap his present. When he took off the cover, he drew in a breath because the content of the box was simply beautiful.

It was a beautiful picture frame that was obviously crafted from Tomoyo's own hands. Nothing but skill and love was put in when he work of art when creating every individual glass amethyst plum blossom that went all around the frame. What caught his eye were the glittering sun and moon emblems that symbolized him. That wasn't the most exceptional part, though. Inside the frame, there was a picture of him and Tomoyo that she drew by herself. Initially, he thought it was a snapshot, but then he realized that he never posed in a picture with her. For the first time, he was holding something solid that represented his and Tomoyo's love for each other. For the first time, he was speechless.

The amethyst-eyed girl noticed the silence, but she took it the wrong way.

"I know it doesn't compare to what you did for me, but..."

Her words were cut of when Eriol gave her a tantalizing kiss. She gasped as Eriol just leaned in to kiss her harder. His mouth was massaging hers as he did his best to thank her for something that was so meaningful to him. He was so caught up in the moment, that his fingers were dancing up and down her bare back before the parted for air.

As Tomoyo was catching her breath, she looked into his eyes and noticed that the sapphire was only a thin rim around the black dilated pupils. Vaguely, she realized that her eyes are probably the same way.

"I love your present, Tomoyo," Eriol whispered. "That was the most unique gesture anyone has ever done for me."

"Are you ready for another surprise?" she asked, pleased with her boyfriend's appreciation.

His eyes grew wide. "You mean there's more?"

Tomoyo laughed. He was as eager as a child on Christmas day.

"We're going to have to go to Rika's house first," she told him. "She was the one who thought of this in the first place."

Eriol helped Tomoyo off the couch, and displayed the frame on the table. He was going to have to come back to her house to get it, not that either of them mined.

~*~(Rika's House)~*~

"Rika, you didn't have to go through all the trouble just for me," Kai said as he stepped in to her house. "Your gratitude is more than enough."

Rika turned around and ruffled Kai's short dark hair. She was going to have to snap him out of his low self-esteem problem. She had a feeling that it probably has to do with something from the past, but she didn't want to pry. She was his present, and for the time, she was even his future.

The doorbell rang, making Rika smile because she was expecting visitors.

"Tomoyo! Eriol! Come in, it's nice to see you two," she said, leading them to where Kai was waiting.

Eriol caught Kai's eye, silently asking him if he knew what was going on, but neither one of them knew what was going to happen.

The girls led their boyfriends in the next room where Rika's piano was patiently waiting. Kai was breathless. The notion that Rika could play such a beautiful instrument made him admire hr even more.

Eriol knew Rika was a pianist, and he knew that he was going to have the pleasure of listening to his love's beautiful voice. Nothing made him happier.

Rika began playing as her hands gracefully swept across the keys. After an introduction, Tomoyo began to sing. The song was about finding love and holding on to it because it was destined to be something great in the future. Kai closed his eyes to listen to every key that was played and he could tell that it was perfect. Eriol also had his eyes close, but he was focusing more on every note that came from Tomoyo's voice. Each girl had never preformed anything more beautifully, but that was because they were singing from their heart and soul.

When the song was finished, neither Eriol nor Kai could utter a word. Their girlfriends really had outdone themselves. They were even more shocked when Rika told them that she wrote the song herself, and when Tomoyo said that she wrote her own lyric.

After Eriol and Tomoyo left, Rika turned turn around and smiled brightly at Kai who was still at a lost of words.

"When ever your ready, I'll give you a second surprise," she said. Rika laughed when Kai's eyes grew as wide.

"The song wasn't the only thing?" he asked. "You're making me really happy!"

They were on their way.

~*~(Special Place)~*~

"A little farther, almost there," Rika guided Kai as she made him promise to close is eyes. "Okay, you can open them."

Kai slowly opened his eyes, finding himself on top of a hill where all of the city of Tomoeda could be seen. They were in the western direction, so the sun could clearly be seen setting over the horizon. From where they were standing, they were able to view the scenery from as far as the eye could see. Nothing was missed, and every thing was beautiful. Kai could some how feel inspiration seeping I his system as he itch to put down his thoughts and emotions on paper.

"Rika, this place is amazing," Kai murmured as he slipped his arms around her waist and rested his chin on her head. "How did you find it?"

"I had a major writer's block for that song that I played today, so I took a walk," she began. "I don't know how, but my feet led me here, and ever since that day, this has been my special place.

Kai smiled as she started to lightly nibble on Rika's ear, making her giggle.

"Now it's our special place," he said in a low voice, making Rika shiver. "Thank you for sharing this with me."

Rika sighed as she leaned back. She couldn't be happier.

"It was my pleasure," she said. "Happy White Day, darling."

To be continued...

A/N: Yeah! I finished the first chapter! How many people want me to continue this story? It's kind of hard to get ideas, so suggestions are always welcomed. So what did you think of this chapter? Do you think the girls gave the guys good surprises? E&T was my idea, and the song to. Thanks again, night child. R&K was much nicer with your idea. If everybody wants me to continue, I'll do my best to get the next chapter up next week Friday! Hope to here from all of you soon!
