Author's Notes: I don't own Card Captor Sakura and the song Longing belongs to X-Japan.

"Eriol give yourself some time. Make sure you'll realized it before you go to England", Sakura advice.

"I will my dear Sakura".

"I'll tell this to her. By the way even though you won't return your feelings to her she'll be happy you know why?"

"Coz' my happiness is her happiness", he answered.

"Very good. So night-night!" she said.

"Night-night!" then they put the phone down.

~*~*~*~*~

"Poor Eriol, looks like they can't talk for a while", Syaoran murmured to Sakura who is his seatmate. She nods back.

"I have to tell Tomoyo what we talked last night", Sakura whispered back.

"I hope he realizes his feelings but I think he only loves her as a friend", he said.

"I agree", she remarked.

~*~*~*~*~

It was lunch as Tomoyo was memorizing the lyrics at the rooftop. She likes the place coz' it's quiet. She had to memorize the lyrics coz' after one day they'll be having their prom. Someone opened the door and it was Sakura. She sat down next to her. "I've got something to tell you about Eriol", Sakura began. When she noticed Tomoyo didn't say anything she continued. "He told me he isn't angry at you. And now he wanted to realize his feelings for you if he feels the same way".

"It's okay Sakura. His happiness is my happiness", Tomoyo told her.

"I know", she agreed. "But he'll realize his feelings before he'll leave England".

"I doubt he will not realize it. For I can sense it", the songbird said with a sigh. "But you know what Sakura", Tomoyo looked at her so did the card mistress. "I'll always love him...forever".

"Are you sure?" Sakura asked, testing her. Tomoyo nod in reply.

"If I'll brake this promise then I'll stop singing...forever", she said. Sakura nod as she stood up.

"Good luck on our so-called-concert".

"You too".

"By the way we will have a practice today in the music room. See you around".

"I'll be there", Tomoyo replied as Sakura left her.

~*~*~*~~*~

Eriol was waiting for them again. Somehow he could hear the instruments and not Tomoyo's voice. But it didn't mind him. He'll watch the play this Thursday. Then the music stopped. He looked at his watch and it was still early. 5:15p.m. The door opened and it was Sakura. "Hi Eriol!"

"Oh...hi Sakura! I've noticed you finished practicing so early today", Eriol said.

"Yeah. We only practiced for the instruments. Tomoyo was just watching us. By the way wait for Tomoyo okay?" she favored. Eriol nodded in reply. "Bye Eriol!" Sakura said.

"Bye Hiiragizawa!" Syaoran added.

"Bye!" Eriol also said. Then he noticed Yamazaki.

"Hey Eriol!" Yamazaki began.

"Yo Yamazaki! So how are you doing with the piano?" Eriol asked.

"Well it's fine. Tomorrow we will practice at 4:30p.m. to 6:00p.m.", Yamazaki replied.

"Ah okay. But what time will you present in the prom?"

"Well it's 1:00p.m.after lunch. Programs starts in that time", Eriol just nod his head. "Well gotta go pal! Chiharu is waiting for me under the tree. Bye!" Yamazaki told him, hurrying.

"Bye!" was all Eriol could say. He turned around to check Tomoyo but actually he bumped her.

"Gomen nasai Eriol!"

"G-Gomen nasai Tomoyo!" the both said. They looked at each other then looked away...blushingly. But Tomoyo's eyes turned to him.

"What are you doing here?"

"I was waiting for", Eriol thought for a moment. Waiting for her? Or waiting for the gang? "You".

"Ah okay", was all she could say. "Let's go" she told him as they leave the music room.

~*~*~*~*~ "So...how's the song?" Eriol asked as they we're headed to their house.

"Fine. Sakura, Syaoran and Yamazaki liked it though", Tomoyo answered. "I hope you'll like it too", she added.

"Of course I'll like it! I just have to wait for Thursday", he told her. She nods her head in reply.

"Eriol-kun time to separate our paths now", she said.

"Oh yeah".

"Bye-bye see you tomorrow", she said waving at him as she ran hurriedly home.

'I don't deserve her. She's just good for me. She's so pure', Eriol thought as he walked home. 'But Tomoyo had grown beautifully. Just like Sakura's mom...Nadeshiko'.

~*~*~*~*~

"Well it will be a long day today!" Sakura cheered.

"Yeah...practice again", Syaoran added.

"But I'm excited about tomorrow. I hope the juniors will like the song and also Eriol. Right Tomoyo?" Sakura turned to Tomoyo.

"Hmn? He says he'll like it. We talked about it yesterday", Tomoyo said.

"So your not quarreling or in short your not enemies?" the card mistress asked.

"No Sakura", her best friend sighed. "Well at least he knows but we're not fighting. When I told him about it I just want to give him some time that's all".

"And I hope he realizes it before he'll go to England", Syaoran added.

"Yeah", was Tomoyo's lame reply as she looked outside of the window. 'I hope he'll realize his feelings'.

~*~*~*~*~

"Okay let's practice!" Sakura said as she played the violin. Syaoran and Yamazaki too. Then Tomoyo sang the song. Eriol and the others we're also busy decorating the grounds. Putting some chairs and tables here and arranging the stage when Tomoyo's band will play. Everybody was tired in that day. And their prom is even whole day tomorrow. They exactly ended up at 6:00p.m.time to go home and rest for a while.

~*~*~*~*~

Thursday had come and it was everybody is waiting for. You can see ladies wearing their nice gowns and the men wearing their tux. "Wow! I'm so excited!" Sakura gushed.

"Sakura I'm not excited about our concert!" Tomoyo interrupted.

"But Tomoyo we have done this many times already", Syaoran said.

"I know. Maybe I'm just nervous about the song I dedicate to Eriol", Tomoyo said. The two began to tease.

~*~*~*~*~

At 11:00a.m.the group of Tomoyo began to practice until 12:00p.m. They should not 'tire' themselves coz' they won't have energy this 1:00p.m. Especially Tomoyo who is their vocalist. Finally 12:00p.m.came as they eat their lunch. But somehow their nervous. "Finish eatmehow their nervous. "Finish eatked as he approached her. She blushed on how gorgeous he looks like.

"Yes", she answered. "Fifteen minutes and the play will start".

"You mean your play", he corrected. She gave a slight laugh.

"Oh yeah sorry about that". She looked at the stage where she saw Sakura, Syaoran and Yamazaki. "Got to go Eriol! Got to help them!" He looked on where Tomoyo was looking.

"Sure", Eriol replied. She walked briskly but she turned around to face him.

"By the way I hope you like the song", then she went to Sakura and the others.

~*~*~*~*~

The people grab their seats as they faced the stage. But before Tomoyo's band will start she made an announcement. "Juniors I dedicate this song to you. And also to Eriol Hiiragizawa since he'll be leaving for England". Many people began to tease. Tomoyo and Eriol blushed on that. Tomoyo smiled as she shook her head. Then Sakura, Syaoran and Yamazaki start to play the instruments as Tomoyo started to sing.

Kizutsuke atta kotoba mo

Kasaneta namida mo

Itsuka wa omoide ni naru yo

Dakara...togireta melody

Mune ni dakishimete ashita mo iru darou

Anata ni aenakute mo

[Hurting more than words could ever try to say

Once again my tears come raining down

Someday, though, I know that all I feel will be

So I sing...this 'unending' melody

Hold you close within my heart and tomorrow will live again and

Maybe you and I will live there, too...]

~*~*~*~*~

*Sing without you

I'll sing without you

Can't you feel my heart

Falling through the rain

[*Sing without you

I'll sing without you

Can't you feel my heart

Falling through the rain?]

~*~*~*~*~

I sing without you

I'll sing without you

Can't you hold my tears

Cause, still I love you

[I sing without you

I'll sing without you

Can't you hold my tears?

Cause, still I love you]

~*~*~*~*~

I can't face that thought of being alone

I sing for the song still carries on

Mune ni dakishimete omoi o utawasete

Koe ni naranakute mo

[I can't face that thought of being alone

I sing, for the song still carries on

Hold you close within my heart and think of all the songs we would sing

But your voice has faded soft away...]

~*~*~*~*~

Sing without you

I'll sing without you

Can't you feel my pain

There's nothing I can do

[Sing without you

I'll sing without you

Can't you feel my pain?

There's nothing I can do...]

~*~*~*~*~

I still have a longing for your memory

Kizutsuku dake demo

Kokoro o tsutaetai yo

[I still have a longing for your memory Even if it only causes pain...

I want to tell you of what's in my heart]

~*~*~*~*~

Ima wa...hitori ni shinaide

Furi sosogu ame ni niware sou na yume

Ashita mo kanaderu kara

[But right now...there's no one here for me to tell...

Once again the rain comes pouring, slowly seeming to turn into dreams

Where tomorrow is 'played' just like a song...]

[Repeat * two times]

To be continued...
