Chapter 2

Madison walked into the kitchen to find her father reading the morning newspaper, as he ate his breakfast silently. She then grabbed the juice pitcher inside the refrigerator and went to join her father at the table.

"Good morning dad." She greeted while planting a soft kiss upon his check, before taking her seat in front of her father.

"Good morning angel." Eriol replied back as he folded the newspaper away.

"Dad, will you be busy today, this night?" Madison asked as she poured some orange juice into her cup.

Eriol grinned. "No, I won't be busy tonight, but why do you ask?"

Madison smiled innocently. "I was just wondering, but would you like to do something tonight."

He smiled, and knew that Madison was up to something, but went along. "Sure, what do you you have in mind for both us?"

"Hum. Not exactly something for both of us dad." Madison started.

Eriol looked at her attentively. "No, so for who will it be for?"

She smiled. "It will be something for your date and yourself!"

Eriol coughed before staring at her daughter. "What? A date?"

"Yes dad you deserve it."

Eriol picked up his newspaper back and began to unfold it. "We could do something together angel, like go out for bowling?"

Madison grinned. "Dad please." She spoke while pulling away the newspaper from his grip. "It'll be fun."

Eriol looked uneasy as he raked back his midnight hair. "I don't need this now honey."

"Why not? The last time you went out in the date was 3 months ago, since then you've been busy. Besides I think you need to go out more often and have fun." Madison explained in hopes. "Come on dad, please."

"Mad, your dad is a bit rusted." Eriol admitted.

She laughed. "Rusted? You are fine dad! Besides you still have your charms and good looks."

"Yeah, maybe your right there." Eriol replied with a grin.

"So this mean you will go?" Madison asked in hopes.

"No."

"Dad!" She complained. "I arranged this date especially for you. It's not like the woman I chose is a complete stranger! Besides she is an excellent person and beautiful too. I bet you'll even thank me for such a pair! Come on dad, please!"

Eriol laughed, he couldn't help but to notice how her amethyst eyes shined with determination, just like her mother. How much did she miss her. Maybe that was the reason why he never went out, afraid to meet someone else that could take her place. It had been years since they last spoke, and still he couldn't forget Tomoyo. Eriol wasn't being fair to his daughter, he was holding back, preventing Madison for having another mother, but he couldn't help it. He missed Tomoyo badly.

"Come on dad. Please." Madison pleaded innocently. Once she made up her mind, she wouldn't give up.

Eriol sighed in defeat, he couldn't say no to her, besides it was time for him to let go. "Alright honey, I'll do this."

"You will!" She exclaimed in cheerfulness before quickly giving him a tight hug. "You won't regret it dad!"

....................................o........................................

Tomoyo unlocked the front doors, before carrying the heavy box, which contained her materials for her clothes, into the living room. Kevin followed her mother inside, with two more boxes, before he kicked the door close behind him. They both settled the boxes onto the table and sat themselves down onto the coach.

Tomoyo sighed in tiredness. "So Kevin." Spoke Tomoyo as she gazed at her son who was sitting beside her. "Any plans for tonight?"

"No actually." Kevin replied, "But I have something planned for you."

Tomoyo looked surprise. "For me? What is it?" She asked curiously.

"A date."

Tomoyo smiled. "Ah, you shouldn't have."

Kevin laughed at her mother, "Seriously mom. There is this great guy I've heard about and I managed, through a friend of mine, to arrange you both on a date."

"Oh really? Is he charming?" Tomoyo asked.

Kevin smiled, "Extremely charming."

She grinned, "And is he handsome?"

"Handsomer than Nemo." Kevin replied.

She laughed but then asked again. "Is he fun?"

"I guarantee that you'll have a blast with him."

"He sounds perfect." Tomoyo concluded. "So when will I get to meet this prince charming?"

Kevin smiled at the easiness of this all. He didn't know why, but Tomoyo enjoyed going out on dates. Maybe because she needed a companion or maybe Tomoyo knew that he wanted a father.

"You'll see him at 8:00 o'clock." Kevin spoke. "At a French restaurant, where you will be having dinner for two."

"Sounds pleasant." Tomoyo replied, before gazing down at her watch. "It's 5:40 now. I better get myself prepared."

Tomoyo kissed her son's forehead before getting up from the coach and heading toward her room. As she closed the door behind her, Tomoyo let out a sigh. Dating was a way for her to forget about Eriol. Tomoyo knew that she couldn't torture herself with her past, she needed to find someone else for her son and for herself. All these dates and all these guys were useless, but she had to find the right person, she couldn't keep thinking of Eriol. Tomoyo was determined to move on.

....................................o........................................

Eriol looked down at the paper and then up toward the restaurant in front of him. So this was it, the French restaurant he was suppose to met his date in. He sighed at the mess he got himself into. He wasn't used to this, not when he decided that his love life was over.

Eriol gave a last look at the paper and grinned at the little message his daughter scribbled down. "What does she mean by 'be home at 11:30'?"

Eriol chuckled at her daughter's silliness, before he tucked the paper inside his pocket and headed in to the French restaurant. A woman greeted him as soon as he stepped inside, and asked for his name. After checking his name on her list, the woman smiled and told him to follow, where he had a reserved table for two.

As he approached, Eriol noticed that his date was already there seated, and she had her back toward him. Without any delay, he walked forward to greet her.

"Hello." He spoke, as his date looked up toward him, revealing her face.

Surprise and shock was their reaction upon seeing each other. Silence then feel upon them as they gazed at one another in a mixture of emotions that now flooded their minds. They never expected to meet each other, and suddenly here they were on a date.

Tomoyo couldn't help but to admire his strong features. He had grown much handsomer and taller. Those azure eyes still glowed with life, matching his pale skin and his midnight hair that she knew felt like silk when touched upon. Tomoyo then gazed down at his lips, which she knew were soft and warm. She couldn't help herself but admit that Eriol was still a beauty.

"Hello." She managed to speak as soon as she settled her emotions down. "I didn't know you were my date."

Eriol slowly then sat himself before her. "I had no idea as well, in fact I didn't know you were here in London."

"I moved here 7 months ago." Tomoyo spoke.

"How far do you like London?" Eriol spoke, initiating a nice conversation.

"It's great. A wonderful place, except for the fact that it rains often. No, in fact that doesn't matter much, the rain only adds to the beauty of it all."

He smiled. "What brought you here anyway?" He then questioned.

"My job. I'm a designer and a photographer." Tomoyo spoke with a smile, which managed to make Eriol softly blush.

"So you managed." Eriol recalled, as he remembered her wish when a teenager.

"Yes, like I always wanted." Tomoyo spoke softly, happy that her wishes did come true. "What about you Eriol?"

"Well I've started up my own company and made up to the top." He explained. "I've been able to turn my ideas into reality."

Tomoyo smiled. "That's great."

Eriol nodded. "Yeah. We both made it through our paths."

Both fell silent as they gazed at one another. They both achieved their life time goals, but never had realized that they were longing for one another. They couldn't turn back their paths once they started off.

"Excuse me. Would you like to order?" asked the waiter.

Both looked away as they picked up the menu and opened. The waiter then wrote down their orders before excusing himself away.

Eriol took the opportunity to gaze upon Tomoyo, who was slowly taking her wine, which she had ordered earlier. Eriol couldn't believe that she had grown to be such a beauty. She looked stunning in her black dress that fit her perfectly, showing every developed curves well. Her long hair cascaded down her back, as her bangs fell upon her beautiful amethyst eyes which he was so in love with. Those eyes still glowed like they used to in the past. Tomoyo indeed was a beauty.

"So Eriol, tell me, how did you end up here?" Tomoyo spoke curiously as she gazed upon his handsome figure.

He smiled. "Well, our daughter convinced me to come."

The word daughter caught her attention as she felt the urge to know more about her little girl who she hadn't have the chance to meet or see. "So how's my little girl?" She spoke rather softly.

Eriol saw the longing in her eyes. "She's beautiful. Cheerful and lively. Everything that we used to be when young."

Tomoyo smiled to hear that, she knew Eriol was going to be a great father. How could he not? Eriol was the most caring and loving person she had ever met. He was the only boyfriend she ever loved and knew that he would be the best father for her little girl.

"So." Eriol started uneasy. "How's my son?"

Tomoyo smiled. "He's handsome like you are." She saw him blush which made her laugh softly. "He's the perfect son. Caring, charming, and a boy to love."

Eriol smiled. He had no doubt that Tomoyo would be the perfect mother. She had the potential to do this all alone. Tomoyo had proved to be doing just fine. Eriol couldn't help but to feel proud of her, she was indeed an amazing woman.

Suddenly Tomoyo looked attentive. "Wait a minute. If our daughter has convinced you to come and our son has arranged this date, does that mean they've meet?"

Eriol saw her point. "I'm not sure." He spoke thoughtfully. "They might be friends, but might not know anything about us being their parents and they being twins. Besides I'm sure Madison would have told me if she knew anything." He explained.

Tomoyo found herself holding her tears back. Eriol started as he suddenly gazed at her with worrisome. What were the tears for? He was sure he hadn't spoken anything wrong, did he? Tomoyo smiled softly assuring Eriol that he did not need to worry, she was just being emotional all of a sudden.

"Madison." She whispered. "That's her name. Such a lovely name Eriol."

Eriol smiled, those were the reasons for her happy tears. "I remember you telling me once that Madison was a beautiful name, and if you ever had a girl, that would have been it."

Tomoyo felt her tears freeing itself away. "You remember that?" She whispered in surprise.

He nodded his head. "What about our son? Will I have to guess?" He asked with a grin.

Tomoyo laughed. "Kevin. His name is Kevin."

Eriol smiled widely. "Fits him perfectly."

Tomoyo grinned. "Of course it does! He's our son!"

Both of them laughed before Tomoyo slowly put her hand on top of Eriol's hand that laid upon the table. Eriol surprised, felt himself warm up to her touch and slowly turned his hand upward to intertwine his fingers with her soft ones. Tomoyo shivered to that comfortable sensation.

"I'm glad you are here." Tomoyo spoke with a smile as she squeezed his hand.

Eriol smiled back. "Me too. We should thank our kids for this."

Tomoyo softly laughed before pulling her hand away from his and taking her glass of wine. "Let us toast for this one night opportunity. Cheers."

Eriol picked up his wine glass as well. "Cheers."

Both clinked their glass together.

......................................o...........................................

"I can't see a thing!" Complained Madison as she peeked through the restaurant's window.

Kevin chuckled as he leaned against the wall. He gazed at her sister's pouting face and disheveled her hair. She looked up with her eyes glowing in hope.

"Do you think they are doing alright?" She asked.

Kevin only smiled. "They're doing fine." He assured her.

Madison looked back again, trying to peek through the window but it was useless. Giving up she sighed, before leaning back on the wall beside her brother.

"Do you think mom is asking dad about me?"

"Of course she is." Kevin replied. "She loves you Mad, I'm sure of that."

Madison smiled softly. She really wanted to know her mother and hoped that if she ever did, that Tomoyo would receive her with open arms.

"I saw her coming into the restaurant when she arrived."

"Yeah?" Kevin spoke.

Madison eyes sparkled. "She's lovely. Mom is much more beautiful in live than in pictures."

Kevin smiled to hear that. She really did admire their mother as much as he admired their father.

"Dad looks handsome." Kevin spoke.

Madison smiled widely. "Of course he looked handsome! I took care of making him presentable tonight."

Kevin laughed. "Well, you did a great job."

"I know." Madison replied with a grin making him chuckle even more.

"Come on Mad. Let's go have dinner, I'm beginning to feel hungry myself." Kevin spoke as he swung his arm around her shoulder and pulled her closely to his side.

She smiled. Kevin was a great brother and she couldn't help but wonder when they would ever live together with their parents. She really wanted this badly and would do anything to make this true.
