Finding a Miracle
Chapter 3: Friday night
"Love even teaches asses how to dance."
~ French proverb
"No....... No....... Defiantly no...... Bingo!"
Tomoyo said while throwing numerous clothes to one side of the room, looking for the perfect outfit to wear. She finally spotted it. It was a knee high lavender dress with numerous purple flowers on sheer material sewn onto the dress, and was spaghetti strapped, with a beige sweater to go with it. She put it on, then put her shoulder length hair into a ponytail, letting the curls spill down her neck. She put some pink lip gloss on, and some eyeliner. At 6:00 the doorbell rang. Tomoyo felt her heart rise as she heard it. One of her body guards answered her door and began checking Eriol while Tomoyo took the baby to her grandmother for the.... what, 4 time that week, but her grandmother was still okay with it. Tomoyo then headed downstairs to see Eriol's face completely white with a tinge of pink while the body guards were checking his "manly areas"...... You can never be too sure.....
"Ready to go?"
"Yea!" Eriol said in a squeak.
Tomoyo giggled. "Okay, let's go, where are we going?"
"Somewhere nice." Eriol answered, still in a squeak.
"Ok." They began walking when Eriol tried to secretly grab her hand, and when he did, Tomoyo looked at him. "You sneaky devil..."
Once again, since they're not yet old enough to drive, they walked down to Cherry Wood Drive when Tomoyo saw it. Cherry Wood Restaurant. (AN: I'm sorry, I didn't know what else to name it.) It had just opened, and was the most expensive restaurant in Tomoeda. She gasped, and Eriol smirked at her.
"What? Where you expecting 'McDonalds'?"
"No.... But..... Oh Eriol..... It's soooo expensive, I wouldn't feel right making you spend so much for dinner!"
"Don't worry about it."
"But it's only our first date! You shouldn't-" Eriol put his index finger against her lips.
"Sh..... I'm rich too, remember?"
"But-"
"Come on." Eriol pulled her in, although all of her protests. "And stop protesting, soon you'll be holding up a sign and saying 'no more dinner'."
"Hmph!"
"Table for 2 under Eriol Hirigazawa." The host led the two to the table, Eriol still holding Tomoyo's hand. "And don't just order water and a salad. Get whatever you want."
20 minutes and 30 protests later, they finally ordered dinner, Tomoyo upset at what Eriol had ordered for her. Her looked at her and lightly kicked her leg. She looked up at him.
"Come on, smile."
"How am I supposed to? You ordered me a $50 dinner."
"So? Stop worrying about it!"
"I have to pay for at least half!"
Eriol smirked. "You're so paranoid."
"What?! Am not!"
"If you weren't so paranoid, we wouldn't still be fighting over dinner."
"Hmph!"
"Li-kun's gotten to you."
"Shut up!"
"Oh yea.... He has." Tomoyo growled, and it was left there. She looked over to the dancing floor and smirked.
"Ok, I'll leave it there if you dance with me."
"Well, um.... I don't know how to dance..."
"GASP! The talented Eriol Hirigazawa doesn't know how to dance. SHOCKER!"
"All right then Ms. Daidouji, since you're so talented, you teach me how to dance."
"Sorry, I don't educate asses."
"Hm.... I don't see a tail." Eriol stood up to look, then grinned. He held out his hand. "I promise my hooves won't crush your foot. Tomoyo sighed and took his hand as he led her to the dance floor.
"Okay.... Um, put your arms around my waist...."
"Like this?" Eriol put his arm around her waist and pulled her closer to him.
"Uh.... Um..... Yes....." Tomoyo stuttered blushing. She already had her hand on his shoulder. "Well, I guess I have to lead you, although the guys usually d-"
Suddenly, they began moving to the music with Eriol leading. Tomoyo smiled, as she realized what Eriol had done. He had played stupid. She should have known, what kind of englishman did not know how to dance? She hit his shoulder with the hand that was on it.
"What?"
"You liar! You are an ass."
"Half an ass."
"Nope, you fully are. Why did you lie?"
"To tick you off."
"Ass."
"I have a feeling that's gonna be my new name."
"You bet ya."
The song ended and they were informed dinner was ready. They went back to the table and began eating their $50 dinner, Tomoyo still calling him an ass during their conversation. They finished, paid the bill, then Eriol began walking her home. They reached her home and stopped in front.
"Well, I guess this is it..." Eriol said as he stopped in front of her gate, Tomoyo facing him.
"Yea, I guess so..." Tomoyo smiled. "I wonder what kind o kiss this will be this-"
Eriol bent over to face her and kissed her lightly on the lips. "Ass...."
Eriol grinned. "I'd like to see you again... You know, on a date..."
"Me too..... How about next Wednesday?"
"Sure."
"Okay, see you at school..." Tomoyo ran up to her door then turned around to wave at him. He waved back, then she closed the door. He began walking away as two old ladies passed by him.
"Aw.... Young love."
Tomoyo walked inside and ran upstairs into her bedroom, flew onto her bed, and screamed in her pillow, she was so happy. Then she realized something was missing.....
"Momo!" Tomoyo ran downstairs into her grandmother's room and got momo from her grandmother. Momo was wearing one of Tomoyo's many creations. It was a dress with peach colored puffy sleeves, an orange base, and orange and peach striped skirt. "Hey Momo! Was she good today?"
"Yes, she takes after you." Her grandmother said.
Tomoyo snorted. "Ok, thank you grandma...."
"How was your date?"
"Great. Thank you." Tomoyo smiled and walked out with Momo in her arms. "So... What do you want to do the rest of the night Momo? Try on clothes? That's exactly what I was thinking...."
AN: Please review! I'll have the next chapter up next weekend.
