Tears formed in Tomoyo's eyes as she ran towards Eriol. She bit her lip, "Eriol?" She whispered when she reached him.

Eriol handed Suni to one of the people in the back of the church and gazed into Tomoyo's eyes, "It's me"

A sharp noise was heard as Tomoyo's palm met Eriol's face, she slapped him.

Eriol's face stung, he looked back at Tomoyo, "II'm sorry Tomoyo"

Tomoyo didn't hear him though, she was too busy crying. She fell to her knees, sobbing, "You idiot.you alwaysleave me here"

"I should have never left...but can't you be reasonable about it?"

"REASONABLE?!? REASONABLE?!? YOU WANT ME TO BE REASONABLE!?!?"

Her tears still streamed down her face, but anger filled her heart.

All the others stood awkwardly in the chapel, staring at what was transpiring.

"Youyou left me so many times Eriolwhat are you going to do now?"

Eriol yanked Tomoyo to her feet, "TomoyoI love you."

"Wh-"

"Shhhhh" He put a finger to her lips, "I promiseno more of this."

"Promise?"

"Promise."

Tomoyo smiled, but then her eyes drifted to the floor, Eriol noticed immediately, "Tomoyo? What's wrong?"

"Unfortunatelyyou're too late." Trave's voice called from behind Tomoyo. He glared at Eriol, stepping right up to him and getting in her face, "You hurt her EriolI won't let you do that anymore."

The crowd seemed to be taking this all in, and loving it. It wasn't everyday that you got to see something like this transpire.

Trave stared angrily at Eriol, then pulled Tomoyo toward himself, letting her cry on his shoulder while he glared at Eriol, never letting his eyes stray.

"Stay away from my wife."

Eriol's eyes looked hurt as he looked from Tomoyo to Trave. He whirled around to the child actress, Suni.

She was just beginning to wake when she saw Eriol's hardening eyes staring into hers.

Suni yelped and scooted back a bit, "M-Mr. Eriol.?"

He grabbed her arm, and pulled her over to Tomoyo, "I can tell something about herwhy is she important to you Tomoyo?"

Trave's eyes widened in fear as Suni was grasped by Eriol, "Let her go Eriol."

Tomoyo shook as she saw Suni with Eriol, "Eriolplease don't"

Suni looked around like a scared rabbit, searching for someone to tell her what happened.

"It's alright Trave" Tomoyo stood and reached out towards Suni, come here Suni."

Suni squirmed out of Eriol's grasp and ran to Tomoyo, who gave her a fierce hug.

"We're adopting her. Her parents died when she was very little."

Eriol stared in shock. Tomoyo was no longer his. She had a man and a daughter now.

"B-but" He trailed off, not wanting to believe any of this.

He sunk to his knees and set his hands to his forehead.

Suni blinked, then looked up at Trave's face, "This is mean." She whispered to him.

Trave coughed, and whispered back, "I know Suni, but this is the only way we can let him see what he did to Tomoyo."

Eriol's face was stone cold when he stood up, "I'm sorry that you don't return my feelings Tomoyo."

And he left.

Tomoyo looked longingly after him, then turned to Trave. He nodded, "Now you can go after him."

Tomoyo ran out the chapel doors towards Eriol, "Eriol! Eriol! Wait! Wa-"

He tried to ignore her, but he couldn't he finally turned to see what she wanted.

"Tomoyo, I told you I-" He faltered, "Tomoyo!"

She had tripped and was lying on the steps with blood running down her white wedding gown from her head.
