"New Me"
Tomoyo woke up the next morning in an unfamiliar room. Then she remembered. She was in America! Jordyn was sitting on the end of her bed, reading a magazine.
"Oh hey! Sorry, did I wake you?" Jordyn said in her american accent.
"No, you didn't" Tomoyo shook her head.
"Today is going to be SO fun. Are you too tired?" Jordyn asked.
"Uh-uh, I'm wide awake" She answered.
"Wanna go shopping? The mall is like, heaps big. There is so many shops, I go shopping with Leeyah and all my other friends and sometimes Volks when she has the time" Jordyn grinned.
"Yeah, I love shopping. I don't go very often" Tomoyo said.
"Why not? Every girl needs a shopping trip at least once a month!" Jordyn said with a frown.
"Well..I don't have many friends, only one actually I'm really quiet and my best and only friend is the most popular girl in school, we've known each other forever, and I go when she has the time for me" Tomoyo explained.
"You know what? I'm gonna bring you out of your shell. When you get back to Japan, you be a whole new girl. I'm gonna take you to get your belly pierced and, oh my gosh! We'll each get tattoos! Just small ones, big ones look really dangerous and tryhard" Jordyn clapped her hands together.
"Uhm.." Tomoyo bit her lip.
"Oh come on! Anyway, let's go have some breakfast!" Jordyn said. The went downstairs.
"Good Morning, Mom, Volks. Where have Dad and Bailey gone?" Tomoyo asked politely.
"Hey honey. George is at work and Bailey went to a party last night, he should be home around noon" Eleanor said.
"Hey Mom, can we go shopping today? Volks can come if she wants to" Jordyn grabbed a piece of toast.
"Sure, just be back before five, ok? When are you leaving?" Eleanor asked.
"About ten. It's nine o'clock now" Jordyn said.
"Yeah, I'm coming. I need new shoes anyway" Volks said.
"May I please be excused?" Tomoyo asked.
"Of course! You don't need to ask. Oh, you're so polite, I hope it rubs off on my kids" Eleanor smiled and ruffled Jordyn's hair.
"Stop it, Mom!" Jordyn exclaimed with her mouth full of toast. Volks laughed.
Tomoyo left the table and took a shower. She quickly got dressed in one of her usual plain outfits and grabbed her bag and purse. When Tomoyo got back downstairs, Jordyn yelled from the bathroom that she'd be another ten minutes.
"Could I use your phone?" Tomoyo asked.
"Yeah, here" Volks grabbed the cordless phone off the hook and threw it to Tomoyo, who easily caught it. She dialed Sakura's home number.
"Moshi moshi, Touya speaking" Touya said.
"Moshi moshi, Touya, this is Tomoyo, can I speak to Sakura please?" Tomoyo asked.
"Sure, I'll just get her" Touya said. Tomoyo heard a faint yell of 'KAIJUU!'
"Hello?" Sakura's voice went through the phone breathlessly.
"Hey Sakura, it's Tomoyo" Tomoyo replied.
"TOMOYO! How are you? How was your flight?" Sakura asked excitedly.
"Both good. I'm going shopping with Jordyn and Volks today" Tomoyo answered.
"Cool. Are they nice? Oh you'll never guess what happened..." Sakura and Tomoyo talked awhile longer until Jordyn was ready.
"I have to go, sorry. Ja ne Sakura!" Tomoyo said and hung up the phone.
Jordyn was wearing a white pleated mini-skirt with a black studded belt and a blue and white top that said '68. Do me and I'll owe you one' and on her feet were chunky black mid-shin high platform boots. Her red-streaked hair was down.
"You ready?" Jordyn looked at Tomoyo's navy blue knee-length skirt and white ¾ button up top and plain mary-janes.
"Yes" Tomoyo said.
"Cool. Let's go shopping!" Jordyn yelled and bounded out the door. She quickly popped her head back in the door.
"Volks! You coming?" She called.
"Yeah, give me a second" Volks called back. When the older girl was ready, they went to the mall.
^=^=^=^=^=^=^=^=^=^=^=^=^=^=^=^ ````````````````````````````````````````````````
"Ooohhhh, I've never been in so much pain!" Tomoyo groaned.
"Me either. Ouch. I'm so glad you opened up to me. Now all I have to do is get you to be louder and actually wear those clothes" Jordyn winced.
Tomoyo had gotten her bellybutton pierced and since Jordyn already had hers done and she didn't want Tomoyo to be alone, she got another hole in her ear. Now she had four in one ear and five in the other. While Tomoyo got her hair washed and blowdried, Jordyn changed her red streaks to blonde streaks. Tomoyo had flatly refused to get coloured hair. They had also been walking around shopping for hours and to top it all off, they both each had a new tattoo.
Jordyn got two, a small playboy bunny on her left breast and a vine going up her middle finger on her right hand . Tomoyo's was on her lower stomach, so you could just see the top of it when she wore hipsters. It said the word 'clow' in japanese with wings coming out of each side of the word (Rhapsody - I am so getting a tattoo like that when I'm older but I'm gonna make it say cherry blossom {sakura} in japanese instead of clow)
"Do you think we can survive the pain?" Tomoyo asked.
"No, but we can try" Jordyn moaned.
"I think we should head home, you two look like your gonna die on the spot" Volks giggled. She'd been too chicken to get a tattoo or another piercing, since all four sides of her belly button were done already and two holes in each ear.
"Mmmm" Tomoyo and Jordyn said in unison. A girl with light blonde hair and green eyes came up to them.
"Jordy! How are you? You changed your hair again!" The girl smiled and went to hug Jordyn but she took a step back.
"This is Tomoyo, and we've both just got new piercings and tattoos so we're in a lot of pain" Jordyn rolled her eyes then smiled. "Tomoyo, this is Belinda Chase, one of my friends"
"Nice to meet you" Belinda grinned.
"Likewise" Tomoyo returned the smile and nodded.
"We gotta go Bel, see you on Monday if we don't hurt too much!" Jordyn laughed.
"Ok then, bye!" Belinda walked off.
When the three girls got home, Eleanor fussed over Jordyn and Tomoyo. They had, of course, gotten her's and Sonomi's permission to get their piercings and tattoos.
"Oh girls, you poor things! Only fifteen and gotten needles all over! Why don't you put your swimming costumes on and both hop in the spa? I'll get it ready" Eleanor went to the huge bathroom to get the big spa ready.
Jordyn and Tomoyo put their swimmers on gingerly and Tomoyo put a waterproof patch over her belly button.
"Okay girls, you have three towels each and I put bath crystals, radox, bath bombs and more therapy oils in. I hope you feel better. Oh and there's pink lemodade on the side" Eleanor rushed out of the room.
Six big black towels rested on the sink and two glasses of pink lemonade were on the side of the spa. Two eye masks and two waterproof bath pillows on the side. Tomoyo and Jordyn rested their heads on the pillows and put the eye masks on.
"Mmm" Tomoyo moaned in satisfaction.
"Much, much better" Jordyn agreed..
"What are your hobbies? I actually don't know that much about you" Tomoyo said.
"I like hanging out with my boyfriend, Maddox, and going on double dates with Leeyah and Tom. I love my friends and family, I like dancing and going to clubs. I like music by Candice Alley and Justin Timberlake. What about you?" Jordyn asked.
"I don't have a boyfriend, obviously, and I only have one friend, which is Sakura. She, and one other teachers are the only people in the whole school who know my name. I love playing the piano and singing and I dance and go to my gym to keep fit" Tomoyo replied.
"Your gym?" Jordyn asked.
"Yeah. My mother is very rich, so she used one of the rooms to make me a private gym and dance studio" Tomoyo said meekly. She hated talking about her family's wealth.
Jordyn whistled. "Wow, I never knew you were THAT rich!"
"Tomorrow, we start on your clothes and I think we'll skip Monday and on Tuesday, you become louder and wear the clothes we picked out" Jordyn said.
"The clothes WE picked out?" Tomoyo said skeptically.
"Ok, the clothes I picked but hey" Jordyn shrugged.
The two girls lay in silence for half an hour, soaking up the warm water that relieved their pains and aches. When they got out, they had dinner and easily fell asleep.
_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_ &_@_&_@_&_@_&_@_&_@_&_@
"Jordy, I am not wearing this!" Tomoyo exclaimed.
Tomoyo was wearing denim pedal pushers with three buckles down the bottom of each side. She was also wearing a white collared capsleeve top that showed her flat stomach to just above her belly button that said in black writing 'Been there. Done that. Doing it again later' and her hair was in a ponytail. Her white, black and silver sketchers were on her feet.
"Yes! Yes you are. We didn't buy them for nothing, and it's not showing too much of your belly" Jordyn reassured her.
Jordyn was wearing white denim flares with silver sparkles up the sides and a pink spaghetti strap top that showed a little clevage. She too, had sneakers on but her hair was left down again.
Tomoyo sighed and picked up her satchel bag. Jordyn did the same. They both went downstairs for some breakfast.
"My, don't you girls look nice" George said over the top of his paper.
"Thanks, Dad" Jordyn and Tomoyo said at the same time. They laughed.
"W'sup" Bailey came trudging into the kitchen, still half asleep.
"Don't you have work today, Dear?" Eleanor asked.
"Nah. Took the day off. Can't stand the shithole" Bailey poured some cereal into his bowl.
"Don't talk like that" Eleanor scolded.
"Well, I'd better get down to the college, see y'all later" Volks gave everyone a quick kiss and ran out the door.
"What does she study?" Tomoyo asked.
"She training to be a make-up artist, so far Volks has top grades, I'm so proud of her" Eleanor said. George grunted. Eleanor shook her head and went back to cooking.
"We'd best be off too. Bye everyone!" Jordyn waved and dragged Tomoyo out the door.
"I'm scared. What if everyone hates me?" Tomoyo whispered.
"They won't hate you, I promise. Just speak up and keep your head high" Jordyn said.
"Okay" Tomoyo squeaked.
/*\*/*\*/*\*/*\*/*\*/*\*/*\*/*\*/*\
"Oh I can't believe your leaving this soon!" Jordyn wiped a tear from her eyes.
"I know! But I promise I'll write and call and talk to you on the internet, lavender_shadow@hotmail, email me!" Tomoyo gave her friend a hug, then the rest of the family.
"Mine is punk_starlet_07@hotmail. You'd better do all three" Jordy sniffed.
"Bye Mom, Dad, Bailey, Volks! I'll see you. .er. .later!" Tomoyo laughed.
"Ok sweetie, hope your flight is ok!" Eleanor hugged her and kissed her head.
"Love y'all!" Tomoyo blew one last kiss before she returned home.
$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$
"Okaa-san! Sakura!" Tomoyo screamed and ran into their arms.
"Wow Tomoyo, you've really loosened up! You won't be meek, timid, shy little Tomoyo anymore! You'll be popular, loud, goreous Tomoyo! You should try out for the squad, Mika's so upset that Eriol dumped her! So she quit and now the spot should be yours! You've done dance and a little gymnastics" Sakura said.
"Well..sure!" A little of the old Tomoyo tried to push through but the new Tomoyo forced it aside.
"It's so good that this trip made you more outgoing Tomoyo, I'm so glad!" Sonomi smiled.
"Me too!" Tomoyo grinned.
