Me: Yup, it's me again =D I would just like to thank the people who reviewed the first chapter ^_^
But I'm worried that I'll probably scare away everyone with this chapter -_-;;; No really, it will...
Chapter Two
All right. I've come to a conclusion.
Women. Are. Terrifying.
After being married to one for almost half a year now, I have finally realised this fact. Can I get anymore dense?
One minute they're latching themselves onto you, the next, you see yourself squarely kicked from behind and out the door.
Women.
Such a mystery is the opposite sex.
Make no mistake; I do love Tomoyo, in fact, still just as crazy about her since the first time I laid my eyes on her.
I would go buy groceries for her; I would even go buy clothes for her [Hey! I don't mind. The lingerie section sounds nice...], but going out in this state to buy pads for her... that is just a huge blow to not only my dignity, but also my manhood.
Men, this is not very enjoyable. If you are smart, avoid situations such as this at all costs. Take this as advice from one who has had the experience, yes, that would be moi.
But back to the important matters at hand.
What brand does Tomoyo use?
I'm pretty certain that I've now been standing here for over an hour or two, contemplating over this problem. Adjusting my glasses, I stared up on the shelf at what I had to work with.
Libra...
Kotex...
... or Poise?
I rubbed my chin in concentration. Such a hard decision, so little time.
... Well I could always go back to the house and ask her, but tell me, what insane man would want to go and confront his hormonal raging wife? Only this can be described as an act of desperation.
I've already had one confrontation, and look where it got me. Do you think I'll really be willing to through another? Just thinking about where I would be if I ever did makes me shiver.
Once again, I began my staring contest with each coloured packet for what seemed like hours, but was only several minutes.
Sighing in frustration, I began to rub my poor rear that was most likely bruised and still in pain from earlier on.
Who ever knew women had such strength?
I know as hell that I surely didn't, and I have the bruise to prove it.
Wo-
Small grunting noises suddenly disrupted my thoughts. Averting my gaze, I looked down the aisle to where the sounds came from, the counter near the exit clear as day. A small round man, almost bald, and I'd say around his mid 50s who sitting behind the counter, was looking at me strangely.
I presume he must be the storeowner.
... Not good Eriol, not good.
Hurriedly, I began moving down further down into the aisle, since the pad section had been closer to the counter.
Finally away from the man's view, I breathed a sigh of relief.
I can't really blame everyone for thinking I'm some mad man though. Mind you, it won't be anytime soon until they really ship me off to the mental ward. I just had to grimace as the image of me in a straight jacket come to mind, struggling and yelling profanities like there was no tomorrow as men in white hold me down.
I shuddered.
Not a very pretty picture.
Looking up at the store rack in front of me, a small shining glint suddenly caught my eye. Stepping closer, I reached out and pulled the soft and round, beige jelly-like object out of the box with the protection film that had been opened.
I stared at it oddly as I held it in my hands.
What in Kami's name is this supposed to be?
Fascinated, I began poking and stretching it in wonder.
"Need help with anything there sonny?" An old raspy voice breathed against my ear.
"Aaaahhh!" I screamed, almost throwing the rubbery object into the air and turned around abruptly, only to meet with the wrinkled face of the old storeowner.
His face just a centimetre or two away from mine, as I stared into his eyes in fear. His white nostril hairs being so long, that it was sticking out of his nose and moved every time the man breathed.
I must have been gaping like a fish and staring at him because he cleared his throat uncomfortably and asked again.
"I said, do you need any help with anything sonny?" His raspy voice sounded almost irritated.
His face now slowly advanced towards mine, he was just a nostril hair away as he decided to take another step closer, probably wondering if I was all right.
I took a step back, almost tripping over my pant leg still in shock. Wasn't he over at the counter just a moment ago??
"Uh..." I was at loss for words. Think man, think.
"No no no," I began to laugh nervously as I began fumbling with the stretchy object still in one hand that was hidden behind my back, the other hand waving about in front of me.
"I-I'm fine! See?" And I forcefully gave him the biggest smile I could muster.
The old man took a step back and looked at me with an expression that clearly said: The guy's insane; better bring out the shotgun just in case.
"... Okay." He said hesitantly, but soon walked down the aisle and back to the counter, eyeing me all the way.
I let go of the breath that I had no idea how long I was holding in for. Sweat had already begun forming across my forehead. Using the hand behind my back, I was about to rub off the sticky substance, when I realised that I was still holding the stretchy jelly I had found earlier.
Really, what was it?
Forgetting the ordeal that happened just a few moments ago, I walked back to where I had found the fascinating object. Pulling out the remains of a small pink and tattered rectangular box, I found another one inside.
But what shocked me was what it said in large bold red letters at the top of the box.
Specially made plastic breasts: Big is beautiful.
I could tell that my pupils had now become dilated as I looked down to the tight hold of my hand around the breast.
Well I'll be damned.
I held it in front of my face, and finally took note at how it was slightly curved outwards, round, soft, and very smooth. Almost like a breast.
And it was one.
I looked around to see if anyone was looking, then held it against my chest, the bulging side facing outwards. Like women with theirs, only this was plastic not real. I might as well have fun while I'm here anyway, there's no rush in going back so soon. No rush at all.
Sometimes it makes me wonder...
... What would it feel like to be a woman? I mean with me being a man and all, I want to know.
Women always have it the easy way. They can even easily get men wrapped around their little fingers and tell them what to do... like going out and buy pads for them.
Turning around in search of a mirror, I bumped into something that felt as if I just ran into a brick wall, almost making me fall backwards. Looking up however, was proven to be a mistake, and was going to be the biggest regret I will never live down.
My eyes met into amused amber.
"Ohayo Hiiragizawa."
Well, there goes the last of the very little dignity I had left.
S-I: Eh heh *scratches head nervously* I'm hoping I haven't scared anyone with my craziness just yet.
* If no one likes it, I'll re-do it again at a later time when the last of my assignments is due -_-;; *
Today was actually my birthday too, so be a dear and review for me ^____^;;
I don't mind good or bad comments about it.
The bit where Eriol was holding it against his chest and with him a woman... um... I can't really explain why I even decided to put that there. Guess it was a moment thing lolz ^__^'
And you'll most likely never find a pair of specially made plastic breasts in a corner store, but I just put it in there for the fun of it. Heh heh. I'm also not sure if those kind of breasts are actually made out of plastic... silicon maybe? I know nothing about them -_-;;
Before I go, I just wanted to thank the following reviewers: ERi, KyteAura, BOnBOnCaTz, Kagome, hikagi, White-hair Dogears, Ghost, not applicable, purple azures, Yami Ryu Hiiragizawa, noodle, Dana Daidouji, dark angel, Aurora Starcrystal, Tomoyo4ever, PhoniexFeather, Julia Sumner, Psycho-kugurl, Fire Youkai, kimpster wit da pimpster, and Seph Lorraine!
But I just wanted to answer a few of them:

KyteAura- ^____^ I'm extremely glad that you liked it! XD I was sort of nervous wondering what you thought of it... since it's not really much of a birthday fic...
Ghost- You know come to think of it, I really haven't seen a ficcy like this in the CCS section o.O I guess it was about time someone did put one up [*raises a hand* yup, that would be me. Ohohohoho!]
purple azures- Lolz. Uh... it was actually Eriol buying them pads for Tomoyo, not Syaoran. But I'm glad you liked it anyway! ^.~ I went into that site you gave me [I haven't seen the Tsubasa RESERvoir Chronicles yet] and it wouldn't load T_T Is there another place where I can dl them from? I wanna see...
