Tomoyo couldn't sleep. Eriol just kept popping up into her head. She thought she could get to sleep after he had called, but now she couldn't. Tomoyo couldn't stop thinking about everything about him. The way he reassured her, the way he smiled, the way he would cheer her up, the way he smelt, the way his eyes captivated hers, the way he spoke…
Tomoyo groaned.
'Get out of my head, Eriol-kun!' she thought, fiercely. Her thoughts then jumped to Kagi. He had kissed her. In a 'non-we're just friends' way. The way couples do. She groaned, again.
'I am NOT falling for any of my bestfriends. Not Eriol-kun. Not Kagi-kun.' Tomoyo rolled over and stared at the ceiling. 'I'm not…am I? Am I so fickle?' She sighed, closing her eyes. 'I didn't tell Eriol-kun about me meeting with Kagi-kun tomorrow.' Tomoyo opened her eyes again.
'How should I act when I see him tomorrow? Normally?' she asked herself. She snuggled into her blankets and pillows, closing her eyes. 'Yes, best act normally.'
And that was her last thought before she drifted of to sleep.

Kagi was nervously moving from foot to foot as he waited for the sun to go down. He looked at his watch. He ran a trembling hand through his hair. Kagi was going to confess to Tomoyo. He didn't know what had possessed him to ask her to come to the Tsukimine shrine, but he had. He also didn't know why he had kissed her the other day.
'Stupid hormones.' Kagi thought, angrily. He sighed. There was nothing he could do now, but wait. It was sunset and evening was coming. Fast footstpes were approaching.
"Ka-kun!" Kagi turned in the direction of the voice. Tomoyo gave him a large wave as she walked towards him.
"Tomoyo-chan." She stopped before him and smiled. That soft, kind smile he loved so much.
"What did you want to see me about, Kagi-kun?" Tomoyo asked him, curiously. He scratched his head and gave a nervous laugh.
"Ano…have you eaten yet?" he asked. She shook her head. "Let me take you out to dinner. Just the two of us." he propositioned. Tomoyo laughed.
"Okay, Ka-kun. It's a date." she said.
~~~
The dinner went relatively normally.
'No love confessions or spontaneous kisses. Going well so far.' Tomoyo thought as they walked out of the restaurant. The only thing that had happened was the argument over the bill. Kagi had insisted he pay and Tomoyo had insisted she pay. Of course, Tomoyo's obstinance won out in the end, with Kagi slightly sulking and Tomoyo smiling, triumphantly.
"Let's go for a walk, Tomoyo-chan. It's nice night." Kagi said. Tomoyo checked her watch, before nodding. It wasn't late, but still quite early.
"Let's go walk around King Penguin Park, okay?" she suggested. Kagi nodded and they headed in the direction of the park. The moon was full and the night was warm.
"A night for lovers." Kagi mumbled. Tomoyo turned to look at him.
"Nani? Did you say something, Kagi-kun?" she asked him. Startled, he looked up and grinned, nervously.
"No, Tomoyo-chan. Nothing." he said. She gave a suspicous glance before turning back to looking in the direction they were headed. A King Penguin came into view and Tomoyo ran towards it. Surprised, Kagi ran after her. She stopped right before the figure and looked at it.
"Something on your mind?" he asked. Her soft amethyst eyes turned to look at him. They took his breath away.
"No, not really. There are just so many good memories about this place, I was just remembering some. About Sakura-chan, Syaoran-kun…Eriol-kun." Tomoyo said, turning back to slide.
"You have been friends a long time, ne? You all seem to be the secretive type." he observed. Kagi was clueless to why Tomoyo had laughed after he had said that.
"I guess you could call us that." Tomoyo said, after her laughter had ceased. She looked at him, eyes twinkling and warm. He gave a sharp intake of breath. Kagi knew that if he were to ever tell her how he felt, it had to be now. In the pale glow of the moolight. Before the King Penguin. Alone, in the park, together.
Nervously, he moved closer the confused girl before him and took her hand in his, giving it a firm squeeze. Tomoyo looked down at their clasped hands and then back up at Kagi, looking startled.
"K-Kagi-kun, wha-"
"Tomoyo-chan. I'm in love with you."
Time seemed to freeze, for Tomoyo at least. But, before she could think of an answer, Kagi's warm mouth was against hers. Tomoyo shut her eyes, unable to do anything else, but let him kiss her. She was in shock and deeply troubled. Kagi knew he might have gone a bit far, but he couldn't stop himself, nor did he want the kiss to end.
Unbeknownst to them both, a pair of sapphire eyes watched from afar…
And under the pale light of the moon, a heart was broken…
a.n
Okay, this chapter was only two pages long, but I needed to stop it here. It
seemed the right place to.
PLEASE READ THIS NOTICE!!!
I need you reviewers opinions on an upcoming fic I have in mind. A S+S and E+T
fic. Should I;
a) Have the guys relatively cold and have the girls melt them, or
b) Have Eriol be flirtatious and Tomoyo be very fiery and protect innocent
Sakura against men? Syaoran was still be cold, of course.
Please tell me in your reviews! I NEED YOUR HELP!
