Author's Notes: I don't own Card Captor Sakura.
"By the way are you ready for the field trip tomorrow?"
"Yup! You?"
"Well I'm ready for the trip tomorrow", Sakura replied. "So I guess we'll have to sleep now. Oyasumi nasai Eriol-kun! Sweet dreams!"
"Oyasumi nasai Sakura-san! And sweet dreams!" Eriol also said as they put the phone down.
Tomoyo had arrived in her school that 6:45a.m. They had a field trip that day and the juniors section D will go straight to the school bus. She kick a rock as she was walking, thinking of what she said to Sakura yesterday. "Baka! She'll never forgive me for that", Tomoyo muttered to herself. She was so angry to herself for why she said it. But that's what she wants. She wants to tell her feelings to her cousin. True she is rich and can GET whatever she wants. But this time...she can't get it. She went inside of the school bus and look for a vacant seat. Only a few of her classmates have arrived as they greet 'good morning' to her as she said 'good morning' too. She sat down on the chair near to the window. "I wonder if Sakura is angry at me."
"Then why won't you ask her?" someone said. She looks at her side and found Eriol sitting right next to her. "Ohayou gozaimasu Daidouji-san".
"Ohayou gozaimasu Hiiragizawa-kun", Tomoyo greeted back. "About what you ask me I don't think I have the courage".
"Then how will you know if you won't ask?" she just sighed. "Daidouji-san..."
"Hiiragizawa-kun I told you it's hard to face her. After what I told her yesterday do you think she'll ever forgive me?" she tried to lower her voice coz' she was angry. Not to Eriol but to herself. Eriol reached her hand which is resting on her lap and made a light squeeze.
"I promise you Daidouji-san just try to ask her and then you'll know the answer", he advice. She nods her head and try to smile.
"Thanks again Hiiragizawa-kun. I always owe you".
"You owe me nothing Daidouji-san".
"Say is Mizuki-sensei be our guide?" she asked. She saw him blush a little.
"Hai", Eriol replied. Tomoyo gave a slight laugh.
That was the worst day for Tomoyo ever. She didn't expect that she, Sakura, Eriol and Syaoran will be one group. And she only speaks to Eriol and Syaoran. And Sakura only speaks to Syaoran and Eriol also. Eriol and Syaoran don't know what to do...but at least the two gals keep their cool.
Tomoyo was alone under a tree. She can't believe she feels so empty not talking to Sakura anymore. But she didn't expect something. "Hi Tomoyo!" she looked up to see Sakura.
"H-Hi Sakura!" Tomoyo greeted back, a tint of red crept to her cheeks.
"May I sit beside you?" she asked. Tomoyo nods in reply. "Thank you". The two paused for a while as if thinking what to say. But Sakura spoke first. "I understand how you feel about me". That made Tomoyo look at her but her cousin just continued as she looked at the blue sky. "Fifty percent is I want to believe you. And the other fifty percent is I don't want to believe you. Coz' it's hard to believe that you have fallen in love with me".
"I did fall for you", Tomoyo interrupted.
"I know". Sakura looked at Tomoyo with a genuine smile on her lips. "Tomoyo you may have really loved me more than a friend and a cousin but I know someone out there is waiting for you. Somebody that you are meant to be with".
"Yeah just like you and Syaoran", Tomoyo said. Sakura blushed a little.
"Cut it out!" tomoyo gave a slight laugh. "Just don't be dense if somebody likes or loves you".
"Oro?" Tomoyo wondered. "What do you mean? You'll never know if someone likes or loves you?"
"Through actions dear cousin", her cousin replied. "Sometimes people show their love through actions".
"Oh..."
"So friends?" Sakura said, extending her right hand. Tomoyo shake hands with her.
"Friends". And she felt good about it. That she and Sakura are now friends. Maybe she has to get rid of her feelings to Sakura. She doesn't want to have a fight with her again.
"Hiiragizawa-kun!" Tomoyo shouted as she found Eriol sitting alone on a log, gazing at the fire which reflected from his eyes.
"DAidouji-san be quiet. The people are already sleeping", Eriol reminded. They'll be spending a night in the camp and they'll leave tomorrow afternoon.
"Sorry about that", she apologized as she sat right next to him. "I and Sakura are friends now".
"Glad to hear it", he said, as both looked at the dark twilight sky. "You still have feelings for her right?"
"I'm getting rid of her already", Tomoyo replied which made Eriol to look at her.
"So...you like someone else?"
"I don't know. It's just that my feelings for her quickly vanished". She looked at him and smile. He blushed a little but it's a good thing she didn't saw it. "Hiiragizawa-kun isn't it time to call ourselves by our first names? Besides we've been closed since first year", she offered as her eyes turn back to the sky. Eriol did the same as he looked at the sky with a smile on his lips.
"Of course Tomoyo-san", was all Eriol could say.
"Thanks...Eriol-kun".
That afternoon as Tomoyo was getting her back pack coz' they we're about to leave she suddenly cough. She coughed and cough until what she saw in her hands was blood. "Oh my god!" she get her handkerchief as she wiped the blood. Suddenly there was a knock on her door.
"Tomoyo come on! The bus will leave us!" Eriol shouted from outside. Tomoyo make sure that there was no stain of blood left on her hand. She opened the door nervously and tried her best to act casual in front of Eriol. But as Eriol look at her in the eye he knows something is wrong. "You okay?"
"Y-Yeah. Come on Eriol-kun", Tomoyo replied as she walked passed him. He just followed her as he shrugged the thought that Tomoyo is not fine.
AS the four walked home, Tomoyo was still in shock of how come she coughed blood. 'This is not happening', Tomoyo thought. 'I don't have a sickness'.
"Tomoyo?" Sakura asked worriedly which made Tomoyo look at her. Syaoran and Eriol even look at her.
"H-Huh?"
"Are you all right? Why so silent?" her cousin asked. She smiled nervously at them.
"T-This is nothing guys. Don't worry", was all Tomoyo could say.
"How about Eriol will escort you home? How's that? We don't want anything bad happen to you", Syaoran said.
"That's fine", she replied.
"Okay see you tomorrow Tomoyo-san", Sakura said.
"Bye Tomoyo", Syaoran said.
"Bye Sakura and Syaoran", Tomoyo also said as they have gone their separate ways.
As Eriol escort Tomoyo to her house he noticed they we're so silent. So he starts a conversation. "Um...I'm glad you and Sakura are getting along right now".
"Yeah", Tomoyo replied, lamely.
"Something wrong Tomoyo?" Eriol asked. They stopped at Tomoyo's gate.
"Eriol I..."she wanted to tell him that she coughed blood that afternoon. But she just can't tell it to him. She's afraid.
"What is it Tomoyo? You know you can tell me anything".
"I...never mind. See you tomorrow Eriol", was all Tomoyo can say as she went inside of the house.
"Bye", Eriol said almost in a whisper as he went home.
"Tomoyo dinner time!" that was the second time her mom called her for dinner.
"C-Coming Okaasan!" Tomoyo replied, stammering. How will she ever tell her mother that she had tuberculosis? 'Maybe not', she thought as she went downstairs. 'But I think I have a sickness'. She tried to hold back the tears as she finally reached the table.
"Are you okay dear?" Sonomi asked. Tomoyo looked at her mom and nods her head.
'But isn't it better if I'm going to be honest to her?' Tomoyo asked herself. "Mom I want to tell you something".
"Oh sure dear. What is it?" Tomoyo showed her mom the handkerchief which is stained with blood. "OH MY GOOD LORD?!" her mom shouted.
"Mom...I-I think I have a sickness...and its tuberculosis".
"Why did you get this sickness?" Sonomi asked. Tomoyo just shrugged. "Tomorrow afternoon I'm bringing you to the hospital".
"But mom I'm one of the cleaners tomorrow!" Tomoyo said.
"Then I'll have to say to you're teacher you will be excused", her mom replied. She sighed.
'She did pick me up all right', Tomoyo thought as she saw her mom that dismissal time talking to Mizuki Kaho their adviser and Math teacher.
"Is that so?" Kaho said, shocked. She couldn't believe that Tomoyo has tuberculosis. "Well its okay Daidouji-sama I understand the situation".
"Thank you Mizuki-san", Sonomi said. Her eyes turned to her daughter. "Tomoyo let's go!"
"Where are you going Tomoyo?" Sakura asked as Tomoyo get her back pack.
"Well..."
"We're going to the doctor dear", Sonomi replied for her. The three looked shocked.
To be continued...
"By the way are you ready for the field trip tomorrow?"
"Yup! You?"
"Well I'm ready for the trip tomorrow", Sakura replied. "So I guess we'll have to sleep now. Oyasumi nasai Eriol-kun! Sweet dreams!"
