Disclaimer: I own…NOTHING!!! If I did, I wouldn't be here typing my butt away, instead, I would be in a studio, in Japan, CREATING ANIME!!! But, I'm not, soooo…I'm still happy! ^_^ But, one can dream can't she?
Notes: My cuz', of course! Haha…she edited and she came up with the ending! Who would of thought the girl could be so…frightening? Not me, she was always the innocent one and I was the…shall we say, not-so-innocent-one? Hehe…surprise, surprise! (You know, I think I should send this to Luc or Nessa back there, you think they would believe me that you wrote that part?)
Couples: Okay, the main couple will vary thought out the story. Just because Syaoran and Tomoyo have a moment, does not mean that they will be the final couple. It goes for Eriol and Tomoyo. But the other couples are Meilin/Yukito, and Touya/Nakuru. Meilin and Yukito is an odd couple I know, but if you think about it. It's not that hard to imagine. If you would like a better explanation, just ask! Same with Touya and Nakuru. The last main one is Sonomi and Fujitaka. I don't really think I need to explain that one.
Summary: Daidouji Tomoyo and Li Syaoran have been friends since they were four years old when their Mothers introduced them at a business party. For years to follow, the two grow to be the best of friends. Syaoran's feeling for Tomoyo has also grown as well, but an unexpected transfer student brings a young man by the name of Hiiragizawa Eriol into their lives. Will he push aside the amber-eyed boy and win Tomoyo's heart? Or will the life-long friendship turn into something more? Also things get a little complicated when a happy-hyper girl named Kinomoto Sakura enters the class and falls for Syaoran. What will happen?
LAST MINUTE NOTE!!!!
THERE WILL BE SOME LANGUAGE IN THIS CHAPTER! FOR THOSE WHO CANNOT HANDLE IT! DO NOT READ THE END!
~*~Only For You~*~
Eriol closed the door behind him as he entered the Hiiragizawa manor. He placed his coat in the closet and his backpack in the living room. As he headed into his study, a raspberry-haired woman suddenly came up and jumped on him.
"HHHeeeelllllllooooo Master!!!! How was your day? I had lots of fun at the new school today!!! There were sooooo many kkkaaaawwwaaaiiiiiiii boys!" She squealed; stars shone in her eyes.
Akizuki Nakuru was a beautiful, hyper twenty-two year old woman. She liked chasing after boys and was very active. There never was a dull moment with her around! Even Nakuru seems a bit much to handle at times; she was very caring and loving to others. Nakuru was also Eriol's moon guardian and could change into Ruby Moon.
"My day went very smoothly Nakuru. I spent time with my kawaii descendant and his very charming friend today. They were quite a pair," he answered with a deep look in his eyes.
Eriol didn't so much as flinch when Nakuru jumped onto him. He then continued on his way to the study after she jumped off of him while giving him a weird look.
"That was strange. Master's not usually so…unstable," Nakuru thought.
"I wonder what's on his mind..."
"What's on whose mind, Nakuru?" A small creature with wings flew up to the young woman.
"Oh hi, Suppi-chan!!! I was just thinking that master was acting unusual."
"My name, Nakuru, is Spinel Sun, NOT Suppi-chan. But what seems to be wrong with Master?"
Spinel Sun was a small cat-like animal that passed for such; his wings appeared and disappeared when necessary. He was quiet and thoughtful, unlike his partner. He understood people better and was very good at giving advice. Spinel was also Eriol's sun guardian.
"Well, I'm not exactly sure. You go and find out for yourself," she answered, sticking her tongue out at him.
"I shall."
Eriol entered his study while speculating on the day's events.
"This Tomoyo girl is truly unique. I really have never met anyone quite like her. Maybe…she could be of assistance in the future," he thought out-loud.
"May I ask who, Master Eriol, you are talking so fondly of?" Spinel flew with little blue wings in the room asking.
"Hello, Spinel Sun, I was just pondering about my descendent and his dear friend."
"Dear friend, Master?" Spinel raised a curious eye.
Eriol gave his guardian a look.
"Yes, his dear friend Spinel, he's in love with her. I can see why as well, she is truly a wonderful and caring person."
"It seems you are rather jealous of your descendent for knowing this girl so well. Are you sure you feel nothing for this girl, Master?" Spinel questioned.
He had a feeling there was more to this then his Master was saying.
"Honestly Spinel, you are becoming as bad as Nakuru," Eriol responded, avoiding his question.
Spinel didn't push him anymore and left the room saying he needed to help Nakuru with something.
Eriol started to himself, "I know that Daidouji-chan is special, but how can be so attracted to her so soon?"
He looked at a certain large object that sat on his desk. Eriol blinked, realizing he had carried it all the way here.
"Daidouji-chan's history book," he stated with the faintest hint of surprise.
He wondered lamely about what he should do with it, but the answer was so simple. His face relaxed into a mysterious grin.
"Ah, now I must return this to Daidouji-chan or she wouldn't be able to complete her homework."
He ignored the fact that she could, of course, borrow Syoaran's history book. As he stood up and began pacing around the room, procrastinating, a strange question rose.
"Why is she, this one magic-less girl, fixated into my mind? I have met so many beautiful young women, but none is so interesting as this plain one...but then again, she is anything but plain."
As Eriol continued pondering, Syaoran was walking Tomoyo home. He was staying for dinner at her house like he did everyday. Since Syaoran lived alone, Tomoyo thought it was the best to keep him company. She decided then was a good time to ask about what happened earlier that day.
"Why were you so distant today while we were walking to the cafe, Syaoran-kun? What was on your mind?" The amethyst-eyed beauty questioned.
Syaoran looked as if he was expecting the question, but his pace quickened slightly.
"Please don't lie this time. You know I can see past them," she added with a small smile.
Syaoran hesitated, and thought about his answer.
"I..I..ummm...." He stammered.
"You don't have to tell me if you wish not to, Syaoran-kun," she placed a gentle hand on his arm.
Syaoran started to turn red.
"Thank you for understanding, Tomoyo-chan. I really don't know how to explain it," he stated back to her with a rare smile.
"Alright, but I want you to know that I am your friend, your best friend, and you know you can tell me anything. I'm here for you, Syaoran-kun, and don't you forget that."
At that moment, Syaoran did something very unexpected; he hugged her with such affection that it made her knees weak. But she smiled kindly and hugged him back gently.
"Tomoyo-chan...I..I want to thank you for your kindness to me, ever since we first met, you were always nice to me no matter how awful I was to you," he spoke from inside her silky, soft hair, then took a deep breath and continued.
"I don't know what I would do without you...I really don't..." he tightened his hold on her.
He wanted so badly for this moment to last forever, to hold her and be with her. His angel. His Tomoyo.
"Syaoran-kun, you know you don't need to thank me, that's what friends are for. Also, I am your best friend Syaoran-kun and I always will be," she pulled away just enough to look into his eyes.
When her beautiful, dark eyes met his, he felt he was going to completely melt.
"Nothing will ever change that, Syaoran-kun, we will always be the best of friends for now and forever," she smiled so gently and kindly at him.
Even if there was truth and goodness in her words, Syaoran felt that there was too much truth. They were just friends. Nothing more. Nothing less. But he refused to show any sadness to her.
"Friends forever...." he replied.
Suddenly, Tomoyo flashed a bright smile.
"Promise me, Syaoran-kun! Promise me we will always be best friends, until the end of time!" Tomoyo jumped back from his arms and held out her pinky.
"Tomoyo, don't you think we are a bit old for pinky promises?" Syaoran asked blushing.
No, Syaoran-kun! We always have done pinky promises, why stop now?" She smiled brightly.
Ever since they met, Tomoyo had always got Syaoran to make pinky promises. He never broke one to her and she never broke one to him, for the littlest of things to the biggest of things.
"Alright, Tomoyo-chan, I promise we will be best friends until the end of time and beyond," he linked pinkies with her.
They just stood there for a minute. Tomoyo smiled like a little child at him, so innocent, carefree, beautiful, thoughtful, and loving. Syaoran could see so much happiness in Tomoyo that he felt unbeatable knowing he made Tomoyo smile the way she was.
When they got to Tomoyo's house, the maid welcomed them in.
"Good afternoon, Mistress Tomoyo and Mr. Syaoran."
"Good afternoon, Lily-chan," Tomoyo said and grinned brightly. Syaoran gave a curt nod.
"Lily, can you tell me where my mother is?" Tomoyo asked.
"Of course, they are both in the garden with a guest. In fact, they requested both of your presences," she answered, politely.
"Thank you, Lily-chan."
The two teens walked into the large garden to get a surprise they didn't expect. In the middle of the garden, a round table was set with tea and cake. A number of adults sat around it talking and laughing happily.
Sonomi sipped her tea looking like she had not aged at all. She still had that same beautiful red-hair with her twinkling purple eyes that everyone has known for so many years. She smiled when she saw her daughter who possessed these very same amethyst eyes.
"Tomoyo, look at who is here to visit," she nodded to the guest Lily spoke of.
Next to Sonomi, sat Masaki. His hair was fraying with age and his skin was slightly wrinkled, but his eyes were as clear and loving as ever.
"Great-grandfather!!!" Tomoyo squealed while running into his arms.
"Oh, my dear little angel, I've missed you," he smiled at his youngest descendant.
"I have missed you too, great-grandfather! How long are you staying?"
"For a while." Tomoyo smiled.
She loved her great-grandfather. But then she noticed an all too familiar woman sitting at the table as well.
"Mother?!" Syaoran stared at the middle-aged woman.
"Hello, Xiao Lang, I do hope you are doing well in Japan," Yelan stated.
"Very well, mother." Syaoran bowed and cast a discreet glance at Tomoyo.
"Always well," he thought silently to himself.
Yelan nodded at him.
Even if Yelan was not as strict as the Clan was to her, she was still distant with her son. They didn't have a warm-hugging reunion as Masaki and Tomoyo did.
"Are you staying long, Mother?"
"I plan on a bit of a vacation and decided to stay here for a month or so."
"Wonderful news, Mother. I do hope you enjoy your stay here."
"Thank you little wolf."
Yelan turned to Tomoyo and greeted her, "Tomoyo-chan, very nice to see you again. You have grown quite lovely."
"Arigatou, Li-san!" Tomoyo replied, smiling.
The group continued to talk and chatter until Lily came out and told them there was an unexpected visitor at the door.
"Please Lily, show them in." Sonomi smiled at the maid.
A few minutes later, a certain dark-haired gentleman came into the garden. The handsome young man walked towards the table with a charming attitude.
"Good afternoon to all of you. I am very sorry I am interrupting your time, but I have something that belongs to this beautiful maiden... Daidouji-chan."
Eriol held out the history book that he had offered to hold for Tomoyo and accidentally brought all the way to his home when they were walking earlier that day.
Tomoyo reddened slightly but smiled at Eriol for his consideration.
"Arigatou, Hiiragizawa-kun, this is very kind of you! You really didn't have to, but I appreciate it all the same!" She smiled sweetly at Eriol.
"It was not a problem especially for you, Daidouji-chan. I should be the one thanking you for your kindness to me on my first day of school." Eriol took her hand and kissed it.
In the background, the others watched in surprise. Syaoran and Masaki were glaring at Eriol, while Sonomi and Yelan were staring at him; none of them (besides Syaoran's earlier encounter with Eriol) had ever seen Tomoyo blush.
Tomoyo noticed all the interest and introduced Eriol.
"Oka-asan, Great-grandfather, Li-san, meet Hiiragizawa Eriol. He's a transfer student from England and he's in Syaoran-kun's and my class."
Then she turned to Eriol.
"Hiiragizawa-kun, this is my mother, Daidouji Sonomi, my great-grandfather, Amamiya Masaki, and Syaoran-kun's mother, Li Yelan."
Eriol's eyes flickered slightly as he glanced at Li Yelan.
"A pleasure to meet all of you." Eriol bowed.
Syaoran sent a death glare at Eriol.
"Now he's meeting the family... what fun," he thought bitterly.
Sonomi and Yelan smiled thinly at the young man.
"It is very nice to meet you, Hiiragizawa-kun," said Sonomi.
"As are you, Daidouji-san, Li-san." Eriol took their hands, one by one and kissed them in a gentleman's manner.
Sonomi blushed.
Yelan blushed.
Whatever opposing thought of Eriol changed at his politeness and well-behaved manners.
However, this crossed Syaoran's fairly short line. He really never had an affectionate relationship with his mother because of the Clan, but he was still trying to win it. It didn't help that a stranger came and was already winning his mother's affections.
"What the hell?! He's FLIRTING with MY mother and DAMN HIM it's working!!! FUCK the faintest idea of being friends with that BASTARD! He's going down and I'm starting at his ASS!"
Syaoran thought furiously, adding in a few Chinese curses.
"I love you, Tomoyo-chan, very much, might I add, but he's moving into the WRONG territory.
This time, snake-charmer, its WAR!!!"
