Author's Notes: I don't own Card Captor Sakura
People applauded as Tomoyo finished singing the song. Some people even whistled. 'It was a sad melody though', Eriol thought as he went to Tomoyo. He waited near the stage's stairs. Tomoyo, Sakura, Syaoran and Yamazaki made a respectful bow. Tomoyo went down first and Eriol offered his hand. She gladly took it and went down of the stage. "I want to speak to you in a private place", Eriol whispered in her ear. Tomoyo looked at him and she nods her head in reply. He hold her hand and they exited the school grounds...leaving the other juniors as they watch some other play.
~*~*~*~*~
"In the school's park?" Tomoyo asked, shocked on what they are doing here.
"Correction mini park", Eriol said as he sat down on the bench near a cherry blossom tree. She followed him and sat down beside him.
"So...what do you want to tell me?" she asked nervously. And curiosity is killing her.
"Well about your feelings for me Tomoyo", they both looked at each other but Eriol looked away. But she never averted her eyes on him. "I'm sorry. I still couldn't realize it. I mean I need time". Tomoyo hold his hand and smiled at him.
"Don't force yourself to it. Just forget it. Sometimes what we want couldn't come true. At least you know...you are not dense I think. Besides I was born to be a girl and I couldn't have Sakura. Coz' it's like I'm a lesbian already. So you see I've got to stop my feelings towards her".
"I understand that but Tomoyo if I couldn't give my answer...I'll hurt you...a lot!" he remarked. Tomoyo shook her head.
"You'll never hurt me Eriol. Even you'll love somebody else. Your happiness is my happiness", she told him. She burry her face in his chest. He embraced her back. Then she repeated the words again softly and not in an angry-tone. "I love you Eriol. Whatever happens I'll always love you". She didn't expect him to reply on what she said. She knows he couldn't answer anyway.

Summer had already begun. And it's time for Eriol's departure. Eriol's plane will leave at 1:00p.m.yet Tomoyo hasn't arrived. "She better hurry up! She got 30 minutes left!" Sakura said, tapping her shoes impatiently while crossing her arms. "Calm down Sakura! She'll soon arrive!" Syaoran said.
"Hell Syaoran! She has to be here now!" she said, angrily. Syaoran sweat dropped.
"Here she comes Sakura!" Eriol told them as they both turned to where Eriol was looking. Tomoyo was running to them as she waved her hand. As she reached them she was panting as she bends down and holds her knees, while Eriol pat at her back. She looked at him and she hugged him suddenly. Eriol was really going to fall down when good thing he remained his balance.
"Eriol...why?" Tomoyo sobbed on his shoulder. Sakura and Syaoran sighed. Eriol released from the hug and look at her.
"Coz' I have to", Eriol paused then added. "I'll be back and I want you to be strong for me". She nods her head in reply. She doesn't want to speak for it will make her worst. She'll cry harder.
"Master Eriol let's go! Ten minutes before 1:00p.m.!" Nakuru reminded.
"Come on master. The plane will leave us!" Spinel added, which on the other hand hiding in Nakuru's jacket.
"Coming!" Eriol answered. He turned to Tomoyo one last time. "I'll leave now". Tomoyo close her eyes as Eriol kiss her on the forehead. Then she opened her eyes only to find him to go to the escalator.
"Eriol!" Tomoyo called, running after him. Eriol turned his back as he doesn't want to see her who is hurt.
"Tomoyo no!" Syaoran said, grabbing her hand to stop her. She tries to relax herself. And she turned to Syaoran and bury her face in his chest. She doesn't care if it was Syaoran or Sakura. But right now she needs comfort. Syaoran hugged her back as he looked at Sakura. She shook her head like saying "Let her feelings out for a while. Let her be1" And when they went home Tomoyo was still crying.

Four years have passed since Eriol left Japan. Nineteen year old Sakura Kinomoto, Tomoyo Daidouji and Syaoran Li we're having a great time chatting at the school's mini park. They sat on the bench where Sakura and Syaoran sat beside each other and across them is Tomoyo. And at the center is a table. "Sakura and Syaoran I'm really worried about Eriol. He didn't reply on my last letter which is when will he return here. He never writes back", Tomoyo told them. But actually Sakura and Syaoran know something which Tomoyo don't know. "Maybe he's just busy Tomoyo. Remember we're college already", Sakura comforted her. They heard a sigh from their friend.
"Your right. I missed the elementary days. When I'm still taking a video of you together with Syaoran and Keroberos who catch some cards here and there. How I missed those times. Now we're college already", Tomoyo suddenly remembers the past when they we're still young.
"And Eriol Hiiragizawa came", Syaoran added. Another sigh from Tomoyo.
"Yeah he came". What Tomoyo doesn't know is that Eriol had come back to Japan. He doesn't want to tell Tomoyo but he told Sakura and Syaoran about it. It's a surprise. And he was at Tomoyo's back. Sakura and Syaoran looked at him and a good thing Tomoyo didn't noticed.
"Um...Tomoyo let's go back to our classroom. Fifteen minutes before the bell rings", Sakura reminded as the three stood up from their seats.
"Right. I don't want to be late". Tomoyo answered. As she turned around she'll never expect who she saw. "E-Eriol-kun?"
"Long time no see Tomoyo-san", Eriol greeted her with a smile. Sakura and Syaoran felt happy for the two. As they watched Tomoyo hugged him.
"You've come back", Tomoyo whispered in his ear.
"I promised right. And for all the years I realized you are so important to me", he paused for a moment. "I hope you're not dense on what I mean. I care for you and love you too".
"Thanks Eriol!" she told him.
"I have a compliment to make", Syaoran told Sakura.
"What is it Syao?" Sakura asked.
"Cute couple aren't they? And also meant to be", he replied. Sakura nods at him.
"And I wished we have a video camera in this moment so that we could capture the beautiful moment in history", she added.
"I agree", Syaoran said as they saw Eriol kissed Tomoyo's cheek.
