Chapter Two: Eriol Gets to Know Her
*** PREVIOUSLY ***
"And who is that unfortunate girl?" Syaoran said getting more and more curious.
"None other than Tomoyo Daidouji." Eriol said grinning from ear to ear.
"WHAT?!!! Bu-but how?!!" Syaoran said a bit envious.
"One word to say it all. STYLE."
"But heck! What does it got to do with your so called style?!!"
"Everything."
"Damn you, Eriol."
*** CHAPTER TWO ***
*** Tomoyo's locker ***
'Hmm... I wonder if I did the right thing... accepting Eriol's invitation, because I was pretty sure when he invited me, the girls were glaring at, I'm sure if looks could kill, I'm surely dead by now. But I can't blame them since he's kinda hot... and those marine orbs? Who could resist them? Ew, where did that thought came from? ' Tomoyo thought while getting her notebooks she needs tomorrow.
"Hey."
"Huh? Oh, hi Eriol!" Tomoyo said slightly surprised.
"Um, is this a bad time? 'Cause seems like you were thinking lots of stuff." Eriol said.
"Oh, no. I was just thinking of... of... what flavour of ice cream I would like to have." Tomoyo said closing her locker. ' Liar. You were thinking how gorgeous he looks like.'
"So, shall we go now?" Eriol said, extending his arms for Tomoyo. [Like in wedding, when the groom walks with the bride... sorry, can't explain it well...]
"Yes, we shall." Tomoyo said giggling. (And also blushing!)
"Hiiragizawa... you big flirt..." a certain amber eyed boy said under his breath.
*** Ice Cream Parlor ***
"What would you like to have, Tomoyo?" Eriol said glancing at the menu.
"Um, I'll have... peppermint ice cream?" Tomoyo said uncertainly.
"Ok. Miss, two peppermint is cream please." Eriol said, paying for the ice cream.
"Eriol, I'll pay for my ice cream."
"No, I'll pay, I was the one who invited you here, right?"
"B-but..."
"I won't take no for an answer." Eriol said winking at Tomoyo.
"I guess so." Tomoyo said.
*** Table ***
"So, you like peppermint ice cream too, huh?"
"Yup. When I was still in Japan, I used to eat a lot of that."
"I see. I like peppermint ice cream too! How about music? Do you like music?" Eriol said liking his ice cream.
"Do I like music? No. I love it! Though I can't play any instrument, I can sing!"
"Really?! When I was young I used to play the piano, but since my mother passed away, I stopped playing." Eriol said, a bit sad.
"I see, I'm sorry."
"No. Don't be, I accepted already that my mother passed away, so it's no biggie. Anyway, let's change the subject, okay? I don't like 'touchy' talks."
"Same here. Um, can I ask you a question?" Tomoyo said hesitantly.
"Shoot."
"Um, I kind of heard that you're a Casanova... no offense, 'kay? Is it true?"
"A Casanova, huh? Well, in others point of view, maybe. Why did you ask that?"
"Huh? Oh, nothing. Sorry for that."
"Nah, that's okay. Even my buddy says that I change my girlfriend like I change my polo shirts. So... do you wanna learn how to play the piano? I mean although I'm not that good anymore, I can still teach you, for free, if you want, that is." Eriol said changing the topic. 'That way, I can spend more time with her. And get to know her more. And then she'll be my girlfriend, surely Syaoran wouldn't mind.'
"Really?!! Can I?!!" Tomoyo said, excited like a 6-year-old.
"Of course."
"But... won't it be a bother to you? I mean you've got to study too... and you have soccer practice, right?" Tomoyo said, somewhat a bit sad because of those thoughts.
"My soccer practice is every Mondays and Wednesday. I can teach you every Saturday. If you want."
"Really?! Sure!"
"Hmm... but I doubt the school will allow us to use the music room on Saturdays, how about at my house?"
"Ok, that's fine. But, I don't know where you live."
"That's no problem, I'll pick you up at your house. Here." Eriol said, giving Tomoyo a paper to write down her address.
"Ok. So, it's all set, Tomoyo?"
"Yup!" Tomoyo said smiling cheerfully.
"Bingo. That way I can spend time with her." Eriol thought a bit loudly.
"Did you say something?"
"Oh, nothing. Shall we go now? Since we finished eating our ice creams."
"Sure."
"Hey, it's a bit early, do you wanna go to the Botanical Garden? Its near here."
"Sure, I've been thinking to visit that."
*** On The Way To The Botanical Garden ***
"You know what Eriol, it's just my second day at school, and my first time a actually speak with you, I feel that we have soo much in common!" Tomoyo said facing Eriol with a huge grin on her face.
"The feeling is mutual." Eriol said
"Um, are you tired? 'Cause you sound tired."
"Huh? No, I'm sorry, I was just thinking about what to teach you this Saturday." Eriol said smiling to Tomoyo.
"I'm excited about that. Oh, yeah I haven't said thanks... so thanks!"
"No problem. We're here already, let's go in!"
"Let's!"
*** Inside the Botanical Garden ***
"Wai! It's soo beautiful here! It smells good too! Ahh... the fresh air... I wish I can stay here forever!" Tomoyo said, admiring the surrounding. ' I wish I could stay here with you forever... OMG, what are you thinking Tomoyo! Snap out of it!'
"Yeah, it's good here. Do you like Bearded Iris?"
"Bearded what? Sorry, don't know that." Tomoyo said scratching her head.
"This is Bearded Iris." Eriol said pointing to the flower with a cerulean like colour with large petals.
"Ah... you know a lot about gardening, do you?" Tomoyo said amazed.
"A bit, I know it is so unmanly like, right? But... I dunno, ever since I was a kid, I really like nature and flowers, so I guess it's part of my nature, actually I have a garden in my house."
"Really? I'd like to visit the garden sometimes."
"Of course you may."
After a few hours of chatting, getting to know each other better, they finally decided to go home.
"Um, Eriol, thank you so much for inviting me to the ice cream parlor and staying with me here at the Botanical garden, I really appreciated it." Tomoyo said flashing a genuine smile.
"Anytime. You know, you should smile always, because..."
"Because what?"
"Because you look more beautiful than the other girls. You looks so enthralling among the other girls when you smile." Eriol said softly.
"Um... thanks, I guess." Tomoyo said blushing uncontrollably.
"Hey, you look even better when you blush!" Eriol said teasing Tomoyo.
"um... um... I-I better go home." Tomoyo said still blushing.
"I'll accompany you to your home."
"There's no need to do that."
"Don't worry, I won't do anything to you."
"Ok. I was a bit surprised when you said that I'm... well, you know- beautiful."
"Why?"
"Because no one ever said that to me."
"So I guess I'm the first one huh?"
"Yes."
"Well, there's first time in ever thing right? Oh yeah, before I forget, here." Eriol said handing Tomoyo a bouquet of Lilac. (It's a kind of flower, which is amethyst colour. And it also comes in bunches.)
"Gee, thanks! It smells good! But you shouldn't have." Tomoyo said smelling the flowers.
"No, it's ok. So let's go okay?"
"Okay?"
*** Behind the bush ***
"Damn you Eriol. You're making your move, so that's your style huh? Next time you see me, I'll be with her, and not with you." Syaoran said furiously. -
