Chapter 3

The following Monday Tomoyo had arrived sneezing and I couldn't help but to be guilty for her illness, even though she says it was not my fault at all.

We started to practice but were interrupted by her sneezing. I wished to cure her with my powers but I couldn't show Tomoyo my other identity, not when Sakura wasn't finished with all the transformation of the cards.

"Lets call it over for today." I spoke worried for her health.

"Alright." she replied with a sneeze afterwards.

She got up from her spot to retrieve her bag, before she left, Tomoyo looked upon me.

She seemed puzzled and asked. "Why are you upset?"

I was surprised on how easily she could read my expression even though I was sure I had hidden my emotions well, but it was expected, Tomoyo was a potential person, capable of doing anything.

"Nothing much." I replied, "You better head home and treat your illness."

She stood there still doubtful. I didn't want her to know that yesterday at night Kaho had called to know about my situation in Japan.

I took the time to explain everything to Kaho, including the unexpected feeling I had developed towards Tomoyo. That night we separated our bonds and said our last words, whishing each other luck. Even though we remained friends, I still feel guilty for hurting Kaho's feelings even though I was sure that we were forever. But we weren't meant to be and I was willing to try with another person until I knew it was right.

Tomoyo stood there, but finally she smiled and did not persist more, which I thanked her gratefully.

............................................................................ ...................................................................

Yes, I got myself the flu for having sat too close to the angel. My misfortune was my running nose in every minute of the day. Even being the most powerful mage in the world I could not explain why I had not the capability of curing myself with my own magic. It really is a mystery to me.

When practice time had come, I meet Tomoyo, explaining that we should cancel today's practice, for I was in no good condition to play. She agreed and told me to rest.

As I headed down the stars to the exit, I remembered the forgotten book that I left at the music room and so I went back up to retrieve it. When I got near the room I could hear the piano playing and I wondered who might it be, then came Tomoyo's soft voice, which made me even more curious.

I sprung open the door to find another boy playing the piano with Tomoyo standing in front of the instrument.

"Eriol why are you here? You better head back home." spoke Tomoyo worried.

"Hello Eriol." spoke the boy that now I realized was one of our classmate, he also knew how to play the piano.

"Hey Yamaka." I replied back with a faint smile, I couldn't help but to feel jealous.

"Eriol." spoke Tomoyo.

"I'm here to pick my book." I quickly responded as I headed towards the desk and grabbed the book.

Yamaka began to play once again as Tomoyo continued to sing, I couldn't help but to boil up in anger. Why was I losing my composure so easily? But suddenly I realized that Tomoyo wasn't sitting in her usual spot at the piano seat beside me and this time the lady sang with her eyes opened.

I smiled, and knew that she did not trust him like she trusted me. That brought me a blissful sensation as I walked away to head home like I was told to without any worries.

............................................................................ ...................................................................

The practice session was not as progressive as the other had been. Tomoyo had been upset with something as she kept thinking about her troubles instead of singing. I stopped playing when she missed a whole stanza of the song.

"Tomoyo what are you worried about?" I questioned in worrisome.

She quickly put on a smile. "Nothing." she had replied.

"You can trust me." I spoke truthfully.

She sighed, "Yamaka kissed me." she spoke upset.

I could feel my hand tighten into a fist. "Did he hurt you?" I demanded urgently.

She looked surprised at my behavior but still answered. "No. He just leaned forward and I quickly pushed away." She explained in disgust.

I felt a joy that she did not enjoy it, but I still felt anger towards Yamaka.

"He just volunteered to help me so that he could steal a kiss away from me." she had continued adding more wood to the fire burning inside of me.

I abruptly got up and was about to head out to find the boy when Tomoyo grabbed my hand. I looked towards her worried face.

"Don't. It's not worth it." she spoke knowing what I was about to do.

I could see surprise in her eyes that I would change my reaction and lose my composure so easily when in the start I was different and calmer.

"You've changed Eriol." she spoke with a smile.

I quickly turned my face blushing, didn't want her to notice my red face. I sat back down on the chair as Tomoyo began to sing once again, and I picked up from there with the piano. Until I stopped. She looked at me curiously as I looked at her in seriousness. I did not care what happened next and I was not worried of what had possessed me to do it.

Pushing her chin up with my finger, I leaned down and kissed her soft lips. She didn't kiss back nor back away, maybe because of the chock. What I felt was different from what I used to feel and things were confirmed when Tomoyo began to react by kissing me back adoringly.

It was definitely new. What I thought was love is nothing compared to this new founded explanation of love. My developed feelings and care for Tomoyo exploded and overflowed.

She tasted so sweet and her moans left me craving for more. She yielded her mouth open as I slipped my tongue to taste that honey. My hands met her waist and held her tight, closer to my figure, while she circled her arms around my neck. Breaking up for air, I could see her eyes sparkle as we leaned against each other's forehead.

"I wanted to tell you something." I began breathless, now sure how she really felt in return. "I want to tell you that I have fallen madly in love with you."

She smiled wider in great joy as she kissed me over and over again.

"Show me your love Eriol by staying with me." she spoke smiling against my kissing lips.

"I'll show it forever. I'll stay forever. I'll love forever, if you'll be mine forever." I confessed.

"I'll be yours forever and more."

That was how my life changed for the better and forever we did stay.
