A/N: I am sooo sorry! I have been totally delayed! As I've expected, junior
year is rally hard!! And the laptop I'm using is having some kind of
problems... Hehe... I really have to have an inspiration! I gotta have a
boyfriend!! Hehe... That was a joke! (I think) Ahem... Btw, thanks for
those who reviewed this fic! I really appreciate it! I feel really good to
have good reviews! Oh, and amethyst sweet angel, don't feel pressured about
freshmen year, it's hard to adjust but the subjects are easy! Compared to
junior year... YECH. Anyways, on with the story! ;;
Disclaimer: I don't own CCS... If I do, I'll make Eriol like Tomoyo and vice-versa, right? Hehe...(wait, do they like each other?Hmm...)
Chapter 3: Feelings being taken account of
Amusement Park
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN TOMOYO'S GONE?!" Chiharu screamed at Sakura who was
holding her phone. " Well, she said that her mother asked her to go with her. Chiharu sighed as
Yamazaki tried to calm his girlfriend. "Are you sure that's the real reason?" Yamazaki asked,
still calming Chiharu. "I really don't know. But I know Tomoyo. She won't lie... Right?" Sakura
said, looking at Syaoran. Syaoran bit his lip, looking down at Sakura. "Maybe she feels like
she's disturbing us or something?" he said. The girls sighed. "Great. Just great." Chiharu
muttered. "Just when I was thinking that Tomoyo was not feeling like the 3rd wheel, I feel like it
again." Sakura said, leaning against Syaoran who was sighing.
Tomoeda Mall
"That's all, sir?" the waiter asked. "Yeah." Eriol said, giving the menu back at him. He laced his
fingers and stared at Tomoyo, who furiously blushed, again. "So, Ms. Daidouji--" "Please call
me Tomoyo, Mister Hiiragizawa." Tomoyo said, interrupting him. "Oh... Then, call me Eriol."
(A/N: What is it with the calling of the first names and stuff anyways? I mean, in our country it
doesn't matter! ) Tomoyo smiled at him gratefully that made Eriol turn a little red. "What were
you saying?" she asked him again, still smiling. "Yeah... What were you doing here anyway?" he
asked, finally. "Me? Well, I was in the amusement park with some friends, then I decided to
leave when I realized that I was just interrupting them with their, you know, partners." Tomoyo
said with another grin. The waiter gave them their drinks-- Tomoyo's vanilla shake and Eriol's
cafe latte(A/N: Gotta love vanilla shake and the latte! ,)-- then he trailed off. "So you feel like
the third wheel or something?" he asked curiosly. Tomoyo shook her head and sighed. "No,
ofcourse not. Actually, my bestfriend Sakura also thinks that I feel left out just because I don't
have a boyfriend, but actually, I don't. I feel really happy just seeing my friends happy with their
love lives." she said, sipping on her shake, still not taking her eyes off Eriol. 'I wonder why I feel
really comfortable around this guy? He's only blown the dust off my eye yesterday and then
here we are, talking like we've known each other for a hundred years! But he's really nice and
kind. I hope we'll get to be great friends!' Tomoyo thought. "Really? But doesn't it bother you at
times that your friends have partners and you don't?" Eriol asked, hoping that she doesn't realize
that he's asking her too much. Too bad. "What, is this an interview or something?" she asked,
laughing a bit making Eriol blush again. "Not really... I would just like to know..." he said with a
winning grin. Tomoyo giggled at his answer and stared at him again. 'He's really good-
looking...' she thought. 'Wait, what am I thinking?' she asked herself again, shrugging her
previous thought off. "Um... Tomoyo? Are you okay?" he asked, staring back at her. Tomoyo
grinned, yet again, and told him, "Yeah, I am. What was your question again?" she asked him,
taking a sip at her shake. "I asked if it bother you at times that your friends have partners and
you don't?" he repeated politely. "No, not at all. But I have to admit that I was thinking about
what it feels like having someone beside you and just accepting who you are." she said, her
mind drifting off to somewhere. Eriol stared at the pretty girl across him, daydreaming.
(Eriol's POV)
Wow, she's really beautiful. Accept for who she is? I can do that! I mean-- ahem-- I can be her
close friend... Maybe I should tell her that. I tried my best not to look at her anymore and try to
say something sensible and something not foolish enough. "Tomoyo? Maybe, you should, you
know, just get to know other guys that you may like. I'm sure you have many suitors." I said
plainly. Yeah right. If she did that I may find myself spying on her and her date. Amazing what
this girl can do to me. I only met her yesterday and have a normal conversation with her today
and I'm already all over her. "I guess you can say I have some suitors," she began while rolling
her eyes. I smiled at her. "But all they're in for is the fact that they say I have a pretty face. I
don't think I have. Sakura is prettier than me! You should see her! How her emerald eyes--"
Wow, and she's humble too. Who is Sakura anyway? How did we get into her again? Oh no,
I'm lost in her eyes again. Outside I'm aloof but what happened to me now? I'm being... soft?
Oh no! Nakuru must've gotten into me! HEEEELLP!!!!
(Tomoyo's POV)
As I went on talking about my bestfriend, I watched in amusement as Eriol battled with his
conscience. He's so cute! He always do that. Wonder what he's thinking? I think I want to be
close to him. Just to be his friend. "-- And that's why Sakura looks beautiful! I'm sorry if I'm
babbling..." I said sheepishly. He looked at me, finally. "Oh, no, Tomoyo, you're not. Ummm...
I must be too quick to offer you this but..." he started. "Yes?" she asked back. "May I take you
to dinner tomorrow night?" he asked. I looked at him curiously and grinned. "Our first normal
conversation and you're asking me already? My, my..." I said, shaking my head, faking
disappointment. "Oh, well, it's worth a try..." he muttered quietly I almost didn't hear it, but dear
me, I did! I sniggered. "Instead of dinner, why don't you just come with me and my friends to
the fair in our school next week? It's gonna be fun..." I said with a silly smile pasted on my face.
Funny how I already feel at ease with this man. His once gloomy face turned into a happy one
and smiled back at me. "Sure, I'd like that. Where do you study anyway?" he asked. "Oh, at
Tomoeda High." I replied, sipping at my shake again. "Really? I presume you're 16, right?" he
asked. I blinked. "Yeah. Why? Are you 16 as well?" I asked back. "Well, yeah. But in my
country, I was in highschool by the age of 13. So that's why--" "You're in college?!" I
interrupted.
(Normal POV)
Eriol looked at Tomoyo and laughed at her sudden interruption. She blushed and sipped her
shake again. "Well, yeah, I actually am." he said after his laughter died down. "That's why I find
you very matured." she said. "I am?" he asked. "Kind of..." she replied. Eriol looked at her
intently. "That's a good thing, right?" he asked. "I dunno... Maybe." she said with a smile. She
suddenky looked at her watch and realized that her mother must be looking for her. "I'm so
sorry, Eriol I have to go now, my mother might be looking for me now. Is it okay?"she asked,
throwing him an apologetic look. He smiled back at her and said, "Yeah, it's quite fine. Just
leave me here. All alone. By myself." he said, faking a frown. Tomoyo rolled her eyes. "Right...
I'll just see you at my school next Tuesday, okay? You do know where it is, right?" she asked.
"Oh, I know. But just in case I get lost, will you kindly give me your number?" he asked with
another grin. She nodded and gave him. "See you!" Tomoyo said, waving her free hand at him
and grinning as she walked away. Eriol waved back and smiled. 'I think I just met an angel.' he
thought as he, too walked away.
A/N: Again, I'm sorry for the delay. Well, for those who read anyway. I really appreciate your reviews! I'm glad you all find it cute... Hehe... Anyway, I'll be updating next week, I promise! Oh, and pls... pls... pls... R&R! LOL... Til next week! Ciao!
