Thanks for all of your wonderful reviews! I know that I took a long time in
putting Chapter 7 up, but at least it's here now, right? Besides, I had
other things to worry about, like what this chapter should have in it. And
don't worry dear readers, everything would be explained in time. Now, sit
back and enjoy this chapter!
P.S. I'll be putting my normal introductions in due time too!
Please Don't Cry: All is revealed

Tokurashi burst into Tomoyo's room and started crashing her room. He threw her clothes around, broke many of her picture frames, turned her bed over and threw her things into the floor.
"Where did you go Tomoyo?" he yelled at the empty room. It was then he noticed a flyer on top of Tomoyo's TV, and a phone beside it. Tokurashi went over to the TV and looked at the flyer. It said, "To order plane tickets to go to England, call this number.." Tokurashi took the phone and pressed redial. It started ringing, and someone picked up after the third ring.
"Japan Airlines, how may I help you?" a woman said. Tokurashi smiled evilly before hanging up the phone.
"Now I know where you are, my beautiful flower," he chuckled before bolting out of her room.

Tomoyo and Eriol were walking, not caring where they were going. It was very silent, with Tomoyo still distressed about the news of Tokurashi while Eriol was deep in his thoughts.
'Who exactly is Tokurashi? And why is Tomoyo so scared of him?' these questions have been swimming through his mind and he couldn't get them off his head. He heard Tomoyo gasped. Eriol looked at her.
"What is it Tomoyo?" he asked. Tomoyo took out a piece of paper in her pocket, looked at it, and then looked at the house that they were in front of. Then she stared at Eriol, her face lit up.
"Eriol, we've been walking for so long that we ended up on the other side of the town, and right now, we're standing in front of my father's house!" she exclaimed happily. Eriol looked at the house. It was pretty huge. 'The wealth must run in the family,' he thought. Tomoyo walked over to the door and was about to knock on the door but Eriol grabbed her arm. Tomoyo looked at him, surprised.
"What is it Eriol?" she asked. Eriol forced himself to stare at Tomoyo's bright amethyst eyes.
"Before we go in there, shouldn't you tell me who Tokurashi is?" he asked. Tomoyo looked away.
"I'll tell you about him when I get to talk about my father first," she said and gently pulled away from Eriol's grasp. She knocked at the door, and a moment later, a man who had raven hair like Tomoyo opened the door. He stood staring at Tomoyo for a while, and then his eyes went wide.
"Tomoyo?" he whispered. Tomoyo smiled.
"Hello father," she said. The man recovered from his shock and hugged Tomoyo, who hugged him back.
"I can't believe you're here," Tomoyo's dad said. Eriol all watched this, and his heart swelled at the sight.
'You love her, don't you?' a voice in his head that sounded a lot like Nakuru entered his mind. Eriol frowned.
'Yes, I love her as a friend, now go away!' he mentally screamed at the voice. It laughed.
'Why are you denying it to yourself? You know you love her, why torture yourself?' the voice said. Eriol bit his lip.
'Do I love Tomoyo like that?' he asked himself. At that moment, Tomoyo yelled out his name and grabbed his arm. He felt something shot through his arm from where Tomoyo was holding him, and it hit Eriol like a ton of bricks.
'I do love her,' was his last thought before Tomoyo dragged him inside her father's house.

"Look at you, Tomoyo. All grown up and beautiful," Tomoyo's father said. Tomoyo blushed. Tomoyo's father then noticed Eriol.
"And are you my daughter's boyfriend?" he asked. Eriol blushed while Tomoyo only blushed harder. Tomoyo's father smiled a knowing smile. He sat across from Tomoyo.
"Tomoyo dear, why aren't you with Sonomi?" he asked. Tomoyo looked at the ground before speaking. She told him all about Sonomi remarrying and about Tokurashi. Eriol, who had been listening, suddenly became angry at what Tokurashi had been doing to Tomoyo.
'So that's how she got that slash and bruises,' he thought. He wanted to do something to Tokurashi, but he knew that Tomoyo would not want him to get in trouble, so he clenched his fist to release at least some of his anger. After Tomoyo said everything, her father leaned back on his chair.
"I was wondering if I can stay at your house, but not until summer, because I'd like to stay with Eriol for awhile," Tomoyo said, smiling at Eriol. Eriol returned her smile. Tomoyo's father smiled at the two.
"Well, first thing's first: we have to call your mother to let her know where you are right now," he said. Tomoyo nodded.
"After that, I'd love to have you in my house," he said. Tomoyo grinned. Tomoyo's father stood up and went over to Eriol, who was leaning on a wall.
"Since my daughter will be staying at your house for awhile, I'd like to have your address so I can visit her," he said. Then he leaned on Eriol.
"And take care of her," he whispered into his ear. Eriol nodded.
"I will sir," he said. Tomoyo's father smiled at Eriol before slapping him on the shoulder.
"What do you two say we eat dinner together?" he said. Tomoyo looked at Eriol, who nodded.
"We'd both like that, father," she said, smiling. She never felt so happy in her life.
'Finally, something going right in my life,' she thought, taking Eriol's arm and following her father to the dining room.
Okay, now Eriol knows how he feels about Tomoyo. Next chapter, we'll see everything from Tomoyo's P.O.V. Until then, R+R everyone! Oh it's good to be back!
P.S. I'll be putting my normal introductions in due time too!
