~Chapter 5~
Tomoyo woke up to the sound of her alarm clock ringing loudly and clear. Opening her eyes tiredly, Tomoyo reached for the loud object and punched the button down. She pushed her cozy blanket away from her body as she stared up into the ceiling with a sigh. Getting up from her bed lazily, Tomoyo reached for her over-large shirt and covered her body, while picking her towel for her morning bath.
Yawning, Tomoyo reached the bathroom door at the end of the corridor. Pushing the white door wide open, Tomoyo found herself blushing madly as she stood there caught off guard. There stood Eriol, draped with a blue towel around his waist as drops of water covered his handsome figure and well built body. Tomoyo couldn't help but to stare at that sexy man.
"Good morning Tomoyo." Spoke Eriol cheerfully, while his wet bangs covered his azure eyes.
"G-good morning." she stuttered back, while trying to recompose herself.
"I'm done here. The shower is all yours." Spoke Eriol while picking his clothes and heading out of the bathroom.
"Alright. Thank you." Tomoyo managed to say while entering the bathroom and locking the door.
She then quickly turned the cold water on and stepped into the shower. A long sigh of relief escaped her mouth as she felt her body temperature getting cooler. Tomoyo ruffled her hair in frustration as his image popped up into her mind, making the lady blush even more.
'Why is this happening to me?' whined Tomoyo, as her body began to feel numb by the cold water.
"Tomoyo." Called a voice from outside. "Breakfast is served."
"Alright." She called back as suddenly her head began to feel dizzy and her senses began to fail her, causing the lady to faint.
Eriol hearing a thud from inside the bathroom couldn't help but to feel worried. "Angel, are you all right in there?"
Hearing no reply, Eriol began to turn the knob but found it locked. Worried, he quickly backed away and threw himself against the door, causing it to yank open from the impact. Seeing Tomoyo unconscious on the shower made him panic as he ran towards her figure and turned the water off, while kneeling down to touch her hand.
"Your freezing cold." He spoke concerned as he quickly lifted her body up to head out of the bathroom.
Eriol looked down at the lady to find out that he could clearly see her body through the wet shirt. He blushed madly to see those beautiful features of hers but quickly pushed away those thoughts as he hurried to her bedroom.
"I'm terribly sorry." Spoke Eriol as he closed his eyes and took the wet cloth away from her body.
He then laid the lady onto her bed and took a towel to carefully rub her skin dry, while warming her up.
"What were you thinking angel?" questioned Eriol in disbelief.
***
Tomoyo began to stir as she found herself in her bed covered by her warm blanket. She turned her gaze towards her side to find Eriol sitting on a chair close by, holding a mug while watching her.
"Feeling better?" he asked smiling.
"Yes. I guess." Tomoyo replied while sitting up and realizing she did not have her clothes on. "You dried me up?" she questioned while blushing.
"You can say that. But I promise, I did not peek." He answered with a smile. "Here drink this. It'll warm you up inside." Proceeded Eriol as he handed the mug.
"Thank you." Tomoyo replied blushing while taking the drink.
Eriol stood up and walked towards the door. Before he left he turned and spoke. "Angel, don't you scare me again."
Tomoyo blushed even harder and nodded in reply. A warm feeling crept inside of her as she realized, by the sound of his tone when he spoke those words, how worried he truly was. Somehow Tomoyo felt special, like she always had when close to him.
"Rest a bit angel." he whispered making Tomoyo nod her head again, 'If I lose you, I won't live.' He thought as he turned away to leave.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Tomoyo walked along the crowded street as she made her way towards her clothe shop, which was a few block away from her apartment. She needed to check if her business was running smoothly or if any materials were needed. Tomoyo was always careful in managing her shop to success, for it was her wishes to become known as a fashion designer as well.
Clutching her folder tightly, Tomoyo couldn't hold her excitement to show her staff the new designs she had drawn for the new season. Before she could enter through the doors someone abruptly pushed her back into a dark alley nearby, making Tomoyo turn around to face the person with a frown.
"Hello Tomoyo." Spoke Douglas with his mischief smile.
Anger began to sway inside her body as she pushed her hand free from his grip. "Hello there, Douglas."
"You look nice today." He continued as he checked the lady out, scanning her body with his eyes, and smirking in approval.
Tomoyo felt naked before his gaze, as she wished to slap his face hard, but holding back, she spoke calmly. "Why thank you. You don't look bad yourself."
He chuckled wryly, making her annoyed. "Would you like to go out for a drink? Catch up with things."
"No thank you. Unlike some people, I got a business to run." She replied dryly, "So see you around."
As Tomoyo was about to step away, Douglas grabbed her hand once again and pushed her body against his, while securing her by the waist.
"Come on Tomoyo, it'll be fun." He whispered maliciously.
Tomoyo shivered in fear as she tried to push away, but his grip around her was tight. There she stood helplessly caught in a trap, with the man she greatly abhorred. Everything about him made her sick, even his touches were poisons to her gaze.
"Let me go!"
"Not before you agree." He smirked.
"I will never go out with you, even if you were the last man on earth!" she spat in utter disgust.
"Such a vicious mouth for a lovely lady like you." he commented amused as his hand began to travel lower down her waistline.
Tomoyo struggled and pushed, but he did not loosen, instead he tightened his grip even more.
"Come on baby." He whispered while nibbling her ears, making Tomoyo fiercely avert her head away from his face, as hatred flamed inside of her.
Soon the hatred was substituted by fear and dread, as Tomoyo begged for an escape. She could feel his hand rub against her bare thigh, teasing her, while she desperately pushed her skirt down with her only free hand. Tears threaten to escape her eyes, but she did not dare show her fright.
"Don't you dare do it!" threatened Tomoyo ruthlessly.
"Or what?" he asked with a grin.
"Or your going to hell." Responded a male voice from behind.
Douglas quickly averted his gaze towards Eriol, who stood there in the entrance of the alley, frowning with great anger. Tomoyo smiled in thankfulness that her savior finally arrived.
"Eriol." spoke Douglas unexpected, as he let the lady go, making Tomoyo push herself away and walk towards Eriol's side.
"What were you trying to do?" Eriol asked in a harsh tone, as he covered Tomoyo behind him.
"My friend, we were just talking." He explained coolly.
"It didn't seem to me that she was enjoying your little chat."
"Well you know Tomoyo, she's just too shy." Douglas replied with a shrug.
"Or maybe you're the barbarian that doesn't know how to treat a lady when you see one." retorted Eriol back harshly.
"Don't need to stress out here. Relax man." tried Douglas to clam him down, "It was nothing!"
Hearing his words made Eriol lose his composure as his fist flew towards Douglas's face with a great impact. Tomoyo looked in shock, for she had never seen him so angry before, to the point that Douglas's body was thrown almost a meter away from where he stood. Douglas now unconscious and bleeding lay on the concrete floor, for he was no threat anymore.
Eriol then turned around to face the lady, calm and steady, as if nothing had happened. He smiled in worrisome. "Are you all right, angel?" he questioned in kindness although you could still see the flames in his eyes.
"I'm ok, thanks to you." she replied back, while picking the folders that she dropped before.
Eriol slowly then picked her hand that was slightly bruised by the strong grip in which Douglas held on. He began to massage it carefully, easing the bruise, with his soft movements. Tomoyo kept still as she watched him attentively, admiring every aspect of his being, while Eriol was deep in thoughts.
He couldn't help but to think how he could have lost the woman he loved. The anger built inside of him when he saw Douglas with his angel. Flames were bursting out of his head as the urge to kill his friend was emerging into mind. How could he lose his peaceful composure? It never did happen to him before. How could he be so careless in not previewing such a situation, for he knew Douglas was not exactly the gentleman. But just the thought of Douglas touching Tomoyo made his nerve twitch. He could never and would never let anyone hurt his angel.
"Eriol?" spoke Tomoyo breaking his trance of thoughts.
"Yes, angel?" he replied back, while looking up to those sweet amethyst eyes.
"I'll repay you back with a favor."
Eriol chuckled, "No. It was my duty to protect you."
"And it's my duty to repay you for your generosity." She persisted. "Not now of course, but someday." She smiled sweetly, making him blush.
"Come one, let me show you to my store." She added in cheerfulness, while holding his hand within hers and leading him to the way.
Before they exited the alley, Eriol softly pushed her towards him, making her back lean onto his front part of the body, as he took in her sweet scent. He then slowly lifted her hand within his, as he kissed those delicate fingers gingerly. While Tomoyo felt the warm heat embrace her.
"Be careful angel." he whispered softly into her ears, making her blush madly. "Your too precious to be lost."
Before Tomoyo could question him, Eriol lead her away into the light of the city, making Tomoyo ponder his words deeply in her mind, but soon forgot all about it as the day ran through, occupying the lady with work and business, while Eriol decided not to rush things off.
