Chapter 3

When Tomoyo arrived at the apartment she found Sakura crying on her bed. She rushed over to her and sat beside her.

"Oh Sakura, I'm really sorry. I didn't mean what I said and I know that Ken is a jerk, I've always known that but I didn't want him to be a jerk, so I ignored it. I hope he enjoys his time with that girl from the party; he didn't even notice me leave. I'm truly sorry Sakura and I hope you'll forgive me," she begged Sakura for an apology. Sakura sat up and looked at her friend, rubbing her wet eyes with the back of her hand.

"I'm sorry for bothering you about Ken, it's just that I didn't want you to get hurt. You're my best friend and if you get hurt, I feel really bad. I never got the chance to tell you something because you kept interrupting me. I was out shopping one day when I saw Ken kissing another woman, when he was supposed to be your boyfriend. That's why I started bothering you about him, I didn't want to make you unhappy. Tak agreed with me and so did Chiharu, Naoko and Rika. We all were afraid that you were going to get hurt," Sakura explained, taking her friend's hand in her own, "I forgive you for what you said, for men make us women go a bit muddled in the head, but can you ever forgive me?"

"Of course I forgive you Sakura! I'd be stupid if I didn't forgive a friend who wanted to help me! I'm so happy that we sorted this out and I'm never going to see Ken again. I think that I deserve better than that two timing jerk, don't you think?" Tomoyo smiled as Sakura laughed with joy.

"What should we do now? We can't go back to the party, so what do you want to do? You did make us these pretty dresses after all," Sakura asked, for once not wanting to study and wanting to go out instead.

"Let's go see a movie and then go out to dinner at a fancy place, say McDonalds?" Tomoyo laughed as she replied.

"Good plan! McDonalds and a movie it is! What movie do you want to see?" Sakura giggled at the thought of McDonalds being fancy, but wanted a cheeseburger anyway.

"No romance please. Hey, didn't the new movie come out today? Let's go see that. It's no romance but it's a comedy. It's called 'How to Brush your Teeth While Cooking Fried Eggs.' Do you want to see that?" Tomoyo informed her friend while they grabbed their bags again.

"Sounds good. Do you want to get a popcorn?..." their conversation went on about what they wanted to do as they walked down the street to the bus stop to catch a bus to the movies.

When Eriol and Syaoran entered the dining room, they found that they had been separated. There were two empty seats in between them and they thought that it must be the seats of the two girls they had seen before. Eriol quickly read the name tags on the two seats and memorized them so he knew where to start looking for the amethyst eyed girl. The card on the seat next to him read "Daidouji Tomoyo" and the one next to Syaoran read "Kinomoto Sakura". Eriol made sure that he remembered both names for he didn't know which one was the girl he was looking for and Syaoran would want to know the other name. He would ask the hosts afterwards who she had been and would give the other name to his friend. For some reason he couldn't stop thinking about that girl, and he wanted to know why.

End Of Chapter 3.

I'm sorry this chapter is so short (again) but I've been having writer's block with this story, but not with my others. I'll try to write another chapter later tonight, but I can't make any promises. If not tonight I'll update either tomorrow or the day after, I just have to find the inspiration for this story. Could you guys review and give me some ideas? I know how I'm going to end it, but I don't know what to do in between. Anyway, I hope you had a merry Christmas and thank you for reviewing!!
