I'm SO sad you guys! I lost my floppy disk that holds all (and I mean ALL) of my E+T fics! I can't believe I'm SO careless!!! T_T Anyways, I hope you guys like this chapter! Have you guessed who's POV I'll be using this time? If you still haven't guessed it, it's… * drum roll please ^_~ * CHIHARU MIHARA! Yup!

For some good news… For those of you who read my Profile, I was thinking about doing a trilogy on the couple, right? I'm happy to inform you that I've got a plot for it! * squeals * But I still have to wait for how the plot's going to start and how I'll be able to end it but still continue on with the sequels… I didn't think it was going to be THIS hard!

I know this is off-topic and all, but I'm DYING to know: If any of you, my dear readers, watch Inuyasha… Do Inuyasha and Kagome end up together? Or do they not?

Okay, enough of my babbling. Here's Chapter 4!

Chapter 4: Chiharu

Chiharu sweatdropped. Everyone was staring at her, and she has no idea how she'll explain this one. She looked at Yamazaki, who's currently seeing stars. Nope, there's no way he'll be able to help her.

"Chiharu-chan, are you okay?" Sakura asked, concern written all over her face. Beside her, Li-kun was smirking. Chiharu blushed. This is SO embarrassing, she thought.

"Of course Sakura-chan! Nothing to worry about!" she replied, laughing nervously. She saw Sakura exchange worried looks with Naoko-chan.

"What did you do to Yamazaki-kun anyway?" Rika asked, staring at Takashi with a raised eyebrow. If possible, Chiharu blushed even more.

"I guess I hit him a bit hard," she said. Naoko snorted.

"A bit? Chiharu-chan, you're my friend and everything, but if you hit Yamazaki-kun any harder than you already did, I swear, he'd be in a coma right about now!" she exclaimed. At this time, Chiharu's face was so red you could fry eggs by using her face.

"Did he say something to offend you Chiharu-chan?" Tomoyo asked. Chiharu shook her head, her face still red. Beside Tomoyo, Eriol was trying hard not to laugh. Chiharu glared at him.

"And what are you laughing at Hiiragizawa-kun?" she said. Eriol couldn't take it anymore. He burst out laughing, much to everyone's amusement, which surprisingly irritated Chiharu even more.

"You think this is funny?!" she yelled out. Eriol nodded, unable to speak from laughing too hard. Chiharu fumed.

"What kind of a friend are you Hiiragizawa-kun? Laughing at Takashi while he's out cold!" she spat out. Eriol calmed down a little and smiled at Chiharu.

"I'm not laughing because he's knocked out," he replied. Chiharu crossed her arms.

"Then why WERE you laughing?" she asked. Eriol chuckled.

"I'm laughing because you could actually hit someone so hard that they'll end up out cold!" he exclaimed. Then he burst out laughing again. Chiharu couldn't take it anymore.

"WILL YOU QUIT LAUGHING?! IT'S NOT FUNNY!" she cried out. To her surprise, Tomoyo spoke.

"Chiharu-chan, don't get mad at Eriol-kun. It's not going to help Yamazaki-kun if you get mad at him," she said. Chiharu's jaw dropped. This wasn't happening! NOT happening!

But she knew it was. And she couldn't believe it. Tomoyo-chan, the one person that always defends her when she hits Takashi and everyone defends Takashi and not her, is now defending Hiiragizawa-kun over her? This couldn't be!

"You're defending him?" she asked, still not quite believing what she was hearing. By now, everyone was watching intently. Yes, it was that rare to find Tomoyo-chan not defending Chiharu-chan. Tomoyo blushed.

"But Chiharu-chan, it really isn't Eriol-kun's fault," she said. Chiharu couldn't believe what she was hearing.

"But he was making fun of me!" she exclaimed. Tomoyo shook her head.

"No he wasn't," she replied. Chiharu was too shocked to speak. Tomoyo then decided to continue.

"Eriol-kun was just pointing out how powerful your ability of hitting people are," she finished. Seeing Chiharu's still shocked face, she blushed again and continued to eat. As soon as she did, everyone continued what they were doing. Chiharu recovered from her shock and glared at Eriol, who was staring at Tomoyo while she was eating.

Thanks a lot Hiiragizawa-kun, Chiharu thought, staring back at Takashi.

You just took the one person who defends me when it comes to me hitting Takashi. Chiharu frowned. What does Tomoyo-chan see in Hiiragizawa-kun anyway?

At this thought, she decided to observe the couple. Eriol was still staring at Tomoyo. Chiharu looked closely. It seems as if Eriol was staring at her with shock, impressed, pride and… is that love?

Chiharu decided to observe amethyst-eyed friend. To someone, it seems that Tomoyo was oblivious to the world around her while she's eating, but Chiharu noticed that Tomoyo had pink stains on her cheeks. Is it possible that she knows Eriol's staring at her?

Chiharu continued to observe her two friends' actions. Eriol finally realized that he was staring at Tomoyo and decided to read the book that Tomoyo brought with her. If Chiharu weren't observing them, she would've failed to notice that Eriol's cheeks were red before he covered his face with the book, which, Chiharu doubt he noticed, was upside down. Chiharu studied him.

Okay, she has to admit, Eriol was one gorgeous guy. With indigo hair that falls over his eyes, and beautiful azure eyes behind glasses, he radiates off this charming yet mysterious vibe that cause girls to fall all over him. Chiharu noticed that he also has a well-toned body. It was quite visible, and it showed even more during gym class. Chiharu blushed. She remembered when they had their swimming lessons, and Eriol came out of the boys' locker room only with his swimming trunks. The girls in their class practically jumped on him. She then remembered Eriol, while being tormented by the girls, only stared at Tomoyo, who was blushing. Chiharu now wonders if she was blushing from jealousy or from embarrassment?

Chiharu then decided to watch Tomoyo. She watched as Tomoyo snatched the book from Eriol and lectured him about taking her stuff without permission. Eriol then decided to take her food and laughed when Tomoyo frowned at him while taking her food back. Eriol then made a deal to give her food back if she gives the book back, which she refused and told him to keep the food. Chiharu let a smile creep up her face. She finally knows why Tomoyo-chan was so quick to defend Eriol.

She's in love with him, she thought. Her smile widened as she stared at Eriol.

And he's in love with her too.

A frown soon replaced her smile. Why don't they ever tell each other how they feel? She thought. Her heart broke whenever she sees both of them stealing glances at one another when the other wasn't looking, and the longing in their eyes was so obvious it cut like a knife through Chiharu's heart. It doesn't take a genius to know that both Eriol and Tomoyo want nothing but to be with one another, so what's stopping them? Then it hit Chiharu.

They're afraid of rejection, she thought. Chiharu shook her head sadly.

If they only knew, she thought.

"Chiharu-chan, are you still mad?" Tomoyo's voice broke Chiharu's thoughts. She smiled and shook her head.

"I'm not mad anymore," she replied. Tomoyo beamed at her. It was then that Chiharu decided to give her little friend a push. She beckoned Tomoyo to come sit beside her, which Tomoyo reluctantly took.

"Is there something wrong Chiharu-chan?" she asked. Chiharu laughed and shook her head.

"There's nothing wrong Tomoyo-chan," she replied. Tomoyo stared at her in wonder.

"Then what is it?" she asked. Chiharu leaned in so she could whisper in Tomoyo's ear.

"Why don't you tell him how you feel?" she whispered. Tomoyo's eyes widened. Then she blushed.

"Chiharu-chan, what are you-" she was cut off by Chiharu.

"Tomoyo-chan, you know you love him. Just tell him," she said. Tomoyo tried to look innocent.

"I have no idea what you're talking about," she replied. Chiharu only stared at Tomoyo. Tomoyo stared back, and after a moment, she sighed.

"What if he doesn't feel the same way?" she finally asked, much to Chiharu's delight. She smiled at Tomoyo.

"What if he does?" she asked. Before Tomoyo could reply, Chiharu pushed her back to Eriol, who was staring at them with a curious look. Chiharu only hoped that Tomoyo would come to her senses soon. Sudden movements to her right made Chiharu look to find Takashi waking up. Chiharu grinned as Takashi stood up, his hand on his head where Chiharu had hit him.

"What happened?" he moaned. Chiharu giggled and kissed him on the cheek, to his surprise.

"Just girl-talk," she replied, smiling at Tomoyo.
