Okay I'm back and ready for round two. So far we all know that Tomoyo and Eriol like each other. I decide to get that out in the open right away, instead wasting time by writing a million chapters of them starting to like each other when we know they do , because this is an E+T fic. Disclaimer is on the first ch. I will put one in every couple of chs but not in all. I will have an OC in this chapter, she might be in the next one too, but she wont be a main character or anything.
Loving the enemy
CHAPTER 2
Tomoyo looked at the clock once again, this class was going slower then usual. Although Tomoyo had to admit she liked working so close to Eriol, she also hated it, because she found herself looking at him for no reason. Her heart was yelling at her, telling her she had a crush on him, but her mind kept on arguing back ' Even if it is true you like him, it would never work out, he hates you, you're a prep remember…. That doesn't matter, the way he looked at us when he caught us from falling, I could tell he felt something… you're a fool' Tomoyo's head was spinning, al these thoughts were confusing her. The next thing she new everything went black.
Sakura had been glancing over to Tomoyo every couple of minutes, just to make sure Eriol didn't try anything, when she saw Tomoyo fall to the ground. " Tomoyo-chan!" Sakura yelled getting everyone's attention. She ran over to her, Eriol had herd her yell and turned around to see Tomoyo unconscious on the floor. His breath caught in his throat out of worry.
The whole class gathered around Tomoyo, as Sakura cried over her friend. " Tomoyo, Tomoyo, whats wrong wake up." Eriol wanted to do something but couldn't because everyone was standing there. He was looking at her pale face, and failed to notice Sakura get up and walk over to him. Though he was taller then her she stood up to him and slapped him hard across the face.
"You bastard, What did you do to Tomoyo-chan?" Sakura looked at him her eyes filled with seriousness, though the tears still flowed.
" I swear, I didn't do anything to her." He said as the sensei walked out of the class room with Tomoyo, to take her to the nurses office.
" He's right, Sakura, he didn't do anything to her, he was talking to me the whole time." Takashi said, he was friends with both Sakura, and Tomoyo, and Syaoran and Eriol.
" Besides, Eriol would never sink that low as to hurt someone, weather he hates them or not." Syaoran said, as much as he hated them he would never wish anything bad on anyone.
" You better hope she is okay," Sakura said angrily, as she left to fallow the sensei. Eriol looked at Syaoran, he wanted to fallow to and see how she was, but knew he couldn't. why was life always against him.
**** that afternoon ****
Tomoyo woke up in her bed, with a bump on her head from falling. She looked around her room to see Sakura asleep at the bottom of the large bed. Without waking her she got up and walked over to the balcony over looking her huge yard. The sun would be setting soon and she would have to wake Sakura to go home. She thought about the last thing that happened, she was thinking about Eriol. Even though she knew he did not feel the same towards her as she did towards him, it was nice to think what it would be like if they were together. But her smile faded when she looked down to see her clothes she was wearing. If she wanted Eriol that was one of the changes she needed to make. She was wearing a purple halter with jean shorts, she thought of the kind of clothes the punk girls wore, baggy pants, fishnets, she had to admit she had always liked their style but had never dared to wear it. If she had to change herself to get him to love her then that's want she would do. But before she changed her appearance she needed to learn something's, first on the list was skating. And her half cousin (on her fathers side, not Sakura's side) was just the person to help.
*** next day***
It was nearly Eleven in the morning when Tomoyo opened the front door of her mansion to reveal a girl with long black hair like hers and ice blue eyes, smiling at her. The girl wore baggy black pants with black fishnets over a blood red spaghetti strap shirt. She was Tomoyo's half cousin Ashie.
" Hey Tomo, so why is it you needed me to come over so urgently? Shouldn't you be in school." Ashie asked looking at her cousin skeptically, they didn't talk much, they never had much in common.
" I stayed home sick, I need your help, I need to learn to skate, and I want to be a punk." Tomoyo said looking at her cousin hopingly
" Is there a reason why?" Ashie asked, Tomoyo had expected this and decided to tell her everything.
" Well if this is really what you want to do, then I'll help you but, I think he will like you no matter how you look or act." Ashie said after Tomoyo told her the whole story.
" I really thought about it and this is what I want to do." Tomoyo was very determined, and Ashie decided to help.
***:Later that day***
" Damn Tomoyo, you got the hang of this really fast, it took me days to learn what you learned in a few hours." Ashie said to Tomoyo who was skating rather well. She had got down the balance and was able to skate, she had done so well Ashie decided to start her with some simple tricks. So far she learned how to Ollie and do a 180.
Tomoyo skated towards her and stopped with ease in front of her. " Ashie, would you like to spend the night, it's Friday so tomorrow we can work on tricks some more and go shopping to get me the right clothes."
" Yeah that would be great, I think you might just pull this off Tomo." Ashie smiled at her cousin, as they both kicked up their boards and walked in to the house to the kitchen to get a drink. (A/N I know I'm going fast with the elapsed time but I can only make them so long so try not to be confuse.)
**** Saturday morning ****
Tomoyo woke up and got dressed in a pair of jeans and a black halter top. She went to Ashie's room only to find her already awake and tightening the trucks on both of there skateboards, Ashie let Tomoyo borrow one of her boards until she got her own today.
" You want to go shopping first before the mall gets to crowded?" Tomoyo asked her, she looked up and smiled "yup, I was wondering when you were going to get up. I'm ready as soon as you are."
They were both dressed, they both raced down the stairs only to run into Sonomi.
" Tomoyo, I see you are feeling better, Ash-ling what are you doing here?" Sonomi looked at her niece uncertainly, but she understood when she saw a skateboard in both of there hands she understood. She knew that her daughter would eventually try new things.
"We're going to the mall mother, is that okay?" Tomoyo asked. Her mother never said no so there was really no point in asking but she always did anyway.
" Yes, of coarse just don't be back to late." Sonomi said before departing to her office.
When the girls arrived at the mall they went straight to Ashie's favorite store Hot Topic. They emerged an hour later with Tomoyo wearing a pair of baggy black pants, and black fishnet shirt, with a purple happy bunny shirt, with the words 'Pet Me I Bite' on it, over top. (don't ya'll just love happy bunny?) they had several more bags with them. They decided to do to the Vans store and get some shoes and a board for Tomoyo.
They emerged from this store after only a half hour, Tomoyo had five new pairs of vans, and two new board decks, and three new truck and wheels.
" It's been a while since I had so much fun shopping, When Sakura and I go shopping it's a lot more colorful I must say. She loves pink." the girls laughed, they had had a lot of fun together.
" Well since we got everything, you want to head back to my house so I can practice and get rid of my old clothes." Tomoyo suggested, Ashie agreed so they left the mall just as Eriol and Syaoran arrived.
***Monday morning***
"Hey Sakura, yeah, I'm going to school today. Sorry I couldn't talk over the weekend but I was hanging out with my cousin Ashie." Tomoyo said, she was nervous, this would be her first time in public as a punk, other them the mall, but everyone didn't know her there. She had on her new favorite outfit, it was much like Ashie's outfit she wore on Friday, baggy black pants, black fishnets and a dark purple spaghetti strap shirt. She looked in the mirror as she pulled her hair up into two loose buns (like Meilin). Although she didn't usually use makeup she applied a thin layer of black eye shadow, and eyeliner.
" See you at school, bye." Tomoyo said hanging up, and looking at her self in the mirror, "I hope Eriol likes me now." she decided to skate to school today instead of drive since it was only few minutes away anyway. She grabbed her backpack which she had put patches and pins on, and she grabbed her head phones which had a slipknot CD in it, and ran out the door. She had always liked rock music so that was good for her. She skated out the gates of her mansion and on to the street. She had her headphones blaring, and watched where she was going, even though she was already really good, she was still new at this and didn't want to embarrass herself.
When she arrived at school she got a lot of weird looks from those who recognized her, but she just ignored them, she remembered that she was doing this for Eriol, and also that this was fun. Just over the weekend she had realized that the life of a skater was a lot less stressful, plus although she was self-conscious she did not have to worry as much on how she looked. It was like being free.
She didn't have classes with Eriol until second period, but she had all her classes with Sakura, what would she say. She just hoped that Sakura was loyal enough a friend to except this. But she would not tell her about Eriol just yet.
Sakura was at her locker getting her books when Tomoyo came up beside her and opened her locker too. Tomoyo decided to just act normal and not make a big deal out of it. " Hey Tomoyo do you want to go shop-" Sakura stopped when she shut her locker and got a look at Tomoyo. " What the hell did you do?" Sakura looked at Tomoyo with confusion.
" What do you mean, Sakura?" Tomoyo did not expect her to be this shocked.
" I just got some new clothes."
" You're a freak!" Sakura yelled getting the whole hallways attention. Tomoyo was very embarrassed but did not show it. " Why are you dressed lie that and why do you have a skateboard they are dangerous, you cant even skate."
" Actually I .." the bell rang interrupting them, " Well talk later lets just go to class." Sakura fallowed behind Tomoyo, very confused. ' why is she doing this.?'
Soo, how do you like Tomoyo as a punk? I think that it is a persona for her. Though I like her the way she is too. Well please review, I luv that. Lol. I wonder how Eriol will act when he sees her. I know he liked her prep so it should not matter how she dresses, but I like her as a punk so she will remain that way, even if she finds out that he liked her before.
