~ A Little Girl and The Song Of Tears~
Tenshi looked around her English styled room staring in aw at her surroundings a floral pattern bed, velvet red curtains, and cherry wood furniture that reflected the winters light. She wandered to the towering window and watched as the ice twitched against the glass while it glistened with the radiance of the snow.
The view from her window was obscured by the snow and frost but she knew what was beyond her window. She remembered watching 'him' through the bars of his gate as he tended to the flowers. The rainbow garden was a site to see in the summer and spring, the light from the sun started to fade form her mind as the gelid winter took its place.
* shivers* Tenshi realized that she still had her wet clothes on and decided to take a warm soothing bath. She had a bit of trouble trying to find the bathroom since her room was so big but never the less she found it. As light was shed in the room the tiles glistened and the flower paintings danced with glee.
She turned the warm soothing water on and filled up the bathtub. She discarded her wet garments on to the floor and gathered up a towel and a robe. Gracefully, Tenshi stepped into the water enjoying the way it lapped at her legs. She laid herself down into the clear glass water and the last sound she heard was the gentle lapping of waves from the ocean as she fell into a deep, relaxing sleep.
~Eriol's P.O.V~
Those sensual amethyst eyes are bating me to love a memory. Maybe what I saw was an illusion. dang I am too obsessed with this girl an innocent girl that is at least three million miles away. Why is she taunting me with her memories? No, the question should be why do I hold on to her why can't I let her go? If I am such a powerful magician why am I falling under her spell?
" Eriol-sama? You can come in now, unless you would like to stand out there in the blizzard." Darn she rules my thoughts; I bet I looked awkward just standing there in front of the door." Yes of course Nakuru I am sorry if you and spinel were worried and did you*hears nothing but an unusual silence*. by the way where is spinel?"
Nakuru smiled a devious smile and said with words that sounded a little too innocent "Oh we had a lot of 'fun' Eriol-sama." I just shook my head knowing what had happened. Suddenly I shot my head up feeling a strange presence in the house. "Eriol-sama I picked 'HER' up from the airport yesterday night. She's sleeping in your room but I suppose she is up now. Oh and a girl named Tenshi is." I had already started ascending up the stairs to see 'her' before Nakuru could finish.
~Tenshi~
"Excuse me miss but if you don't get up I am sure that you will drown." Said a little about 6 with a sweet voice from above Tenshi. Tenshi's eyes opened as she stared with eyes immersed in bathwater, she sat up and gasped for air. Then Tenshi noticed a red headed girl with a slight blue sheen to her waist length hair and purple eyes sparkling with laughter.
"Osu *bows*miss my name is Sakura Hiiragizawa who are you miss?" Tenshi's eyes were full of curiosity and thought 'Maybe this is Eriol's cousin. but he told me that he had no relatives? Oh well maybe he wanted this to be a secret for he has many.' The little girl stared at Tenshi with serious eyes, which was starting to scare Tenshi. Breaking the heavy silence in the air, Tenshi spoke in a gentle voice showing no signs of fear.on her face. " Osu my dear Sakura-chan my name is Tenshi Mikimoto and you can call me Tenshi-chan. Oh and can you hand me that towel please?"
The little girl's serious stare disappeared as a sweet innocent smile took it's place. Making Tenshi feel a little bit better but she was still curious about that senile stare that the little child just gave her. but she shrugged it off. The child obeyed Tenshi and handed her the plush cotton towel.
Tenshi drained the water from the bath and wrapped the balmy towel around her as she saw Sakura move in one liquid motion disappearing into the bedroom. With eyes of curiosity she stared at the door waiting for the girl to return. As quickly as Sakura had gone she came back with something in her arms. It appeared to be a silk like nightgown. "What is this Sakura- chan?" She said as she looked down at the amethyst material.
" Oh this was my mommy's, but she never wore it she said that a girl made it for her. I brought it here because I know that I will miss my mommy and." There was a look of longing in Sakura's eyes as tears were threatening to fall. But then reality hit her as she continued with a weak smile. ".Well I think that you would look beautiful in it just like a.a.um.a princess!"
Tenshi put on the nightgown and knew that it was silk pure silk and the color of an amethyst. It was a magnificent floor length nightgown and it had a cut in the middle from mid thighs to reveal a translucent lavender fabric flowing in between the cut with a short U cut for the neck and long rippling sleeves. To Tenshi's surprise the fabric fit perfectly with her angelic figure. The nightgown shimmered in the twilight as the trimmings that seems to be made from the moon's light glistened as Tenshi twirled around in the lavish nightgown, as Sakura gasped with starry eyes and squeals of delight.
" Wow! You look like a princess Tenshi!" Tenshi could hardly believe her eyes as she saw herself looking so majestic in the mirror. " Arigato Sakura- chan for giving me this nightgown." Tenshi said, still in aw at her looks. But Tenshi felt a familiarly feeling in the back of her mind regarding this dress she has seen it before but where? Sakura stopped looking at Tenshi, shifting her attention to the mantle of the fireplace. Then Tenshi stopped spinning and gazing at her self in the mirror as Sakura stared at a glass figurine of a piano.
" Do you know how to sing Tenshi." This wasn't a question; Tenshi could tell it was more of a statement to start up a conversation about music. But the way Sakura said those words it was in an I-know-all I-see-all tone as if she knew that Tenshi could sing and that singing would bring something more to the conversation. " Yes I can sing, I love singing it heals me from my troubles it is my magic. I've sang all my life it is my passion."
Tenshi knew what Sakura was going to ask next she said it in her mind as she waited for the innocent little girl to repeat her words as if reading her thoughts 'Can you sing for me?' but that expected question never came it was similar and beckoning the same thing but it was different.
" Once my mommy told me that she had a friend named Tomoyo and she had a voice that would even make the angles stop to listen. There was this one song my mommy described this song as a song that told a beginning of a hidden friendship and perhaps a love story it was called Yasashi. Can you teach it to me?" When Sakura said the last line she shifted her eyes from the glass piano and looked at Tenshi knowing somehow that Tenshi knew this song.
Knowing that it would tell her what she needed to know. 'But what is it that she wants to know.' Tenshi thought as she began to think that this was no ordinary little girl. " Ok Sakura, I'd be happy to teach you this song it is one of my favorites. All you have to do is just repeat after me. Sakura's eyes lighted up when she heard Tenshi agree to teach her.
~Eriol~
" Where could she be?" Eriol looked in his room for 'her' A.K.A Sakura then he heard an enchanting yet familiarly song from one of the guest rooms as he rushed like the wind to the cherry wood door and listened closely to the voices both enchanting but there was one he could almost recognize. But as he listened he soon became drowsy and fell asleep in front of the door the spell of exhaustion and lulling music won this magician over with it's magic.
In the room with Tenshi and Sakura Note:* Sakura is singing* ~Tenshi is singing~
~One.Two.Three~ ~ Sabishii toki ni wa nukumori sagashi~ * Sabishii toki ni wa nukumori sagashi* ~Haruka ni tadoru yo Natsukashii kioku wo~ *Haruka ni tadoru yo Natsukashii kiko wo* ~Haha ga ai shi ko wo kaina ni idaite~ *Haha ga ai shi ko wo kaina ni idaite* ~ Hidamari no naka de komkriuta wo utau~ *Hidamari no naka de komkriuta wo utau*
Tenshi remembered this song this distant melody that was hidden for so many years because it carried too many tears of pain. She always sang it for Eriol .with Eriol as their duet.
I wish to sing with him again I wish to be with him but I am too scared to be with him. I will sing.I mean I will one day come out of the shadows and sing the song of life with him until then this little girl, this little sweet angle sent from above will keep reminding me of how much I care for him. Maybe this little angle an help me try to bask in the sun once more.'
~Jiyuu ni habatakeru sono mune ni hana wo sakasete.~ *Jiyuu ni habatakeru sono mune ni hana wo sakasete.*
The song's memories tore Tenshi's heart into pieces as crystals started to fall from her eyes. The little girl did something unexpected she hugged Tenshi tight and whispered in Tenshi's ear, " Arigato for the song you have a beautiful voice. I know that the memories hurt but please do not cry.Tomoyo." With that 'Tenshi' stiffened and her tears dried leaving a shocked expressions in her eyes.
A/N: I know my story still doesn't have a clear plot yet but it will some hopefully in the next chapter. Also I am thinking about re-writing this chapter what do you think? Also please do drop off a review and also HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYONE!!!! *~Aurora Starcrystal~*

~Jiyuu ni habatakeru sono mune ni hana wo sakasete.~ *Jiyuu ni habatakeru sono mune ni hana wo sakasete.*
The song's memories tore Tenshi's heart into pieces as crystals started to fall from her eyes. The little girl did something unexpected she hugged Tenshi tight and whispered in Tenshi's ear, " Arigato for the song you have a beautiful voice. I know that the memories hurt but please do not cry.Tomoyo." With that 'Tenshi' stiffened and her tears dried leaving a shocked expressions in her eyes.
