Author's Note: I do not own Card Captor Sakura and also the song Shiawase

"Princess why won't you tell him how you feel even though he is already engaged?" Hikaru advice.
"I'm sorry Hikaru", Tomoyo paused. "But I'll never ever love again. Coz' he is the cause".
~*~*~*~*~
"Hikaru borrow a dress!" Tomoyo said running down the stairs.
"A villager's clothes I corrected", Hikaru said. Every time her mom is out she will go to the town and disguise as a villager. "Fine1 Fine! I'll go get it!" Hikaru said getting the clothes.
"yey!" Tomoyo cheered. "I'm free again!"
~*~*~*~*~
After five minutes Hikaru had brought the clothes. A pants and a shirt. Also an old shoes. Tomoyo changed immediately. Then after some minutes she looks like a villager and not a princess anymore. "I'm off!" Tomoyo told Hikaru.
"Make sure you'll be back before night came! Remember there will be a party at the Hiiragizawa's castle!" Hikaru reminded.
"Yeah! Yeah!" she answered lamely.
"Do you have some money?"
"Yeah! Later Hikaru!" Tomoyo said and strode off.
~*~*~*~*~
Tomoyo had a good time sight-seeing the village. People will not notice her. Princess Tomoyo. She bought some food, looked on the beautiful dresses. And suddenly... "Gomen nasai", Tomoyo apologized as she bump on somebody. She looks up and was shock who she saw.
"Tomoyo is that you?" Eriol asked.
"Yeah!" she answered.
"Why are you dressing like that?" he asked.
"So that people will not notice me okay?" she answered.
"Fine!" he said. "Pardon me", said the shopkeeper. "You my lady looks like our princess Tomoyo".
"T-Thanks for the compliment it's f-flattering", Tomoyo answered with a blush. She left hurriedly. But Eriol went after her. "What's your problem?" Tomoyo said angrily.
"I just want to know why you are so angry with me", Eriol questioned back.
"It's not your concern!"
"Yes it is!" he shot back.
"It's for you to find out!" Tomoyo was about to go when...
"Tomoyo I don't care if you're angry at me. Just come at the party. Which is the engagement party", Eriol added, hopefully. Tomoyo wanted to cry right then and there but she wanted to be strong.
"I'll try", tomoyo answered. Eriol went near her and turn her around.
"Please?" he begged his voice soft. Tomoyo look at his sapphire eyes.
"Fine!" then she walked away.
~*~*~*~*~
"Where have you been?" Sonomi fumed. Tomoyo instead of going into the front door of the castle-used the back door and dressed immediately for the party. She had put on her ash blue dress on with a smile on her face, grabbing her sandal paired with the dress. She put light blue glittering beads around her neck and wrist, making her more beautiful.
"I was looking for my shoes and it was downstairs", tomoyo explained.
"Come on! People are waiting for us!" Sonomi said.
"Hai Okaasan", Tomoyo said and hopped on the carriage.
~*~*~*~*~
"Sonomi you're here at last!" Elaine Hiiragizawa said, mother of eriol. She is not old; too young if that's what you say .at the age of forty. Her hair is blue so does her eyes. Her hair reached on her waist. And she was wearing a dark green gown.
"Gomen nasai we're late Elaine. My daughter dressed herself very slowly", Sonomi said.
"That's all right. My is this Tomoyo?" Elaine asked. Tomoyo smiled and kissed her aunt Elaine on the cheek. "Long time no see Aunt Elaine", Tomoyo said.
"Oh honey you sure are right. Thanks for coming at the engagement party", Elaine said, happily.
"Excuse me mom, auntie", Tomoyo said. The two ladies nod their head and continue their chatting.
~*~*~*~*~
It was a long night and all the relatives and close friends of Eriol and Veronica gather around the table. People we're eating, chatting, eating and chatting. Tomoyo didn't mind what people will say about the soon-to-be- couple. But when she was about to steal a glance to him, their eyes met ACCIDENTALLY. She immediately looked away. 'I hate you', Tomoyo thought. 'I hate you coz' I loved you before. Now I wish you didn't come back. I also hate myself for not telling my feelings but it doesn't matter now you're happy with her-with Veronica. It doesn't matter to me all my feelings towards you it will slowly vanish'.
"Come on let's dance", Eriol said extending his hand to veronica.
"Sure", Veronica answered taking his hand.
'Eriol! Your so pathetic to invite her', Tomoyo thought, drinking her wine. People began to dance on the dance floor including the soon-to-be-couple. They danced happily at the center of the dance floor. Smiling at each other while dancing. 'I wonder if he ever kissed her', Tomoyo thought 'Oh well it's not my concern'.
"eriol why won't you and Tomoyo dance for a while?" Veronica advice looking at Tomoyo who was drinking wine.
"Why?" Eriol questioned back.
"She's your best friend. And I've noticed you're not talking to her. And she's not talking to you. You're like avoiding each other", she said.
"Are you sure I'll dance with her?" Veronica just nod. "Fine!" They stop dancing as Eriol approached tomoyo. Veronica on the other hand talked to her relatives and friends.
~*~*~*~*~
'Why is he coming this way?' Tomoyo thought, gulping the last sip of the wine.
"Shall we dance?" Eriol asked.
"Veronica's there so-"
"Shall we?" he asked again. She gave up. Took his hand as he led her to the dance floor.
~*~*~*~*~
"Why the heck am I dancing with you?" Tomoyo questioned when they we're dancing.
"Coz' Veronica said so!"
"Why?" the next question came.
"Coz'", he paused searching the right words to say. "You're my best friend", he finally said it.
'See? He'll never see me more than a girl, more than a friend', Tomoyo thought dancing with him.
"Something wrong? Something's bothering you, you know?" Eriol questioned.
"Nothing-nothing's wrong", she answered.
"If you say so", Eriol said. 'Drats! Why can't I start a goddamn conversation! But she's cold-really, really cold', Eriol thought. Then Elaine got their attention.
"Excuse me everyone", everybody stopped dancing and concentrated on the announcement of Elaine. "Since it's really an early engagement I want one of the guests to make a speech". Then she spotted tomoyo. "Ah! Princess Tomoyo Daidouji, Eriol's best friend, I want you to make a speech". Eaine went down of the platform.
"Good luck!" Eriol said. Tomoyo just gave a wry smile and stood up at the platform. "And just say what your heart says", he added.
~*~*~*~*~
Tomoyo got on the platform. All eyes we're on her. Veronica stood beside Eriol as she saw him clasping his hands to hers. She fumed. 'Why will I get mad? Pete's sake's forget about him!' tomoyo thought. "Um...I'm really not good in speech", tomoyo stammered. People chuckled. "Well I want to begin this speech of mine. Eriol was my best friend since three years old. We've been together since then. Well, people knew magic. Some of them. Eriol left when we we're nine years old. He went to England. He wants to learn magic. So I was left but I was also sad. Well I have a second best friend who is Hikaru. Also when I was ten years old my mom wants me to learn magic. And now look! Ten years have passed and we see each other again. Bringing her soon-to0-be-wife! Veronica! I'm happy for you two! Take care!" Tomoyo said ending her speech. People applauded. 'Somehow I feel a little bit better', she thought. Kaho, who is invited at the party, went to Tomoyo and whispered something in her ear. "Um...Kaho-sensie suggested me to sing a song for the soon-to-be-couple and for all of you. Yo! Eriol and veronica this is for you and for all of you here in the party!"
