Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters in this fiction but the plot
is entirely mine as I based it from a story I'm making at the moment though
I do want to own kawaii Eriol...
Chapter 10 – Qualified Score: Viva Karaoke!
"Tell me, why on earth are we washing the dishes?" Yamazaki muttered
in disbelief as he handed to Shaoran a freshly washed plate to dry.
"Because Yuki-niichan is cleaning up the table and Eriol still has to get ready and Touya needs to modify something on the program," Kaho said good-naturedly as she takes a forkful of strawberry shortcake she has found
in the fridge.
"And why aren't you helping us out?!?" Yamazaki muttered veins
starting to pop on his forehead.
"Because... I'm eating a very good strawberry shortcake? ..."Kaho said
rolling her eyes.
"My, this is really good! She's some baker!" she added as she took
another spoonful.
"Aren't you supposed to be giving us a hand here?" Yamazaki muttered
annoyed.
"My hands are full right now," Kaho said teasingly.
"You guys need some help?" Tomoyo said coming inside the kitchen wearing a red halter top, black leather skirt and leather boots, she had on one hand her trench coat and the other securing her cross earring on her
right ear paired with a round one at the left.
"My, you're one fast dresser... and a good one!" Shaoran said looking
behind his back as Tomoyo placed her coat at the counter.
"Tomoyo-chan! I hope you didn't mind I helped myself with the strawberry shortcake I found at the fridge, it was really good," Kaho said
looking up at Tomoyo.
"Of course I don't. Thank you guys for your help, why don't you take a rest while I take over," Tomoyo said as she took an apron from a cabinet
drawer.
"That's not necessary, we wouldn't want you to ruin your get-up just
because of some dishes," Yamazaki said as he washed the dishes faster.
"Well, at least let help you place this plates to their cabinets,"
Tomoyo said as she took the pile of plates Shaoran has just dried and carefully placed them in one of the wooden cabinets of the French-inspired
kitchen,
"You're some housekeeper! You've only stayed here for a week and
you're familiar with everything in the house already," Kaho said taking
another forkful of strawberry shortcake as she watches Tomoyo move with
ease in the kitchen
"I'm finish cleaning up the table... Wow! You look very pretty Tomoyo- chan," Yuki-niichan said in awe as he entered the kitchen a towel in his
hands,
"My you guys really are a bunch of flatterers aren't you," Tomoyo
said with a smile.
"Only to very rare beauties, I'm afraid and you are on of them. Where's Eriol? Don't tell me you finished dressing up before him?" Yuki-
niichan said looking around the kitchen.
"He's still upstairs. I bet he checked his computer before he got
dressed." Tomoyo said as she placed the other dishes in the cabinet,
"Wow! You've only met for about a week and you know his habits
already?" Kaho said in awe,
"Not really... just a mere observation," Tomoyo said as she handed some
towels to Yamazaki and Shaoran to dry their hands.
"Impressive" Yuki-niichan said taking a seat. He looked at Kaho and
Yamazaki and they all gave off a smirk.
---
"What took you so long? We'll get ourselves stuck in a congested traffic due to your lateness!" Touya said crossing his arms as Eriol ran
his way down the stairs.
"I had to check something on my computer. Where are the others?" The lad clad in brown pants and dark blue sweatshirt with a yellow sun at the
center underneath a white polo said as he ran a hand on his still damp
hair.
"They're already at the garage. Really, Tomoyo-chan is a much fast
dresser than you are!" Touya said.
"She's a ramp model, what do you expect? She's used to dressing up fast," Eriol reasoned in annoyance as they make their way to the garage.
"Finally! Since there are seven of us we might as well take two cars with us. Kaho, Touya and I will be taking my car. The rest will be taking
Eriol's. We'll meet at Plasma, okay?" Yuki-niichan instructed. Everyone
nodded in agreement. Eriol on the other hand felt his jaw drop upon the
realization of two trouble makers by the car.
"Yamazaki and Shaoran will be in my car?" he said in disbelief.
"Why? Want to go alone with your fiancée?" Shaoran smirked.
Eriol no longer complained. What's the use anyway when all he gets is
but a handful of retorts? Getting the car keys from his pocket, he then opens the door to the passenger seat and had Yamazaki and Shaoran get in and Tomoyo by the co-driver's seat. Within minutes they are for the ride
with pop music by the background.
---
"Here," Shaoran said handing to Tomoyo the microphone.
"What?" Tomoyo said looking up. They were at a popular karaoke bar in Shibuya and have been singing for quite a couple of hours while munching on some snacks from the bar. The room was a modern one furnished with electric
blue lounges and metal tables, the floor was lined with fine black macadamia carpet and the walls are painted white with a number of framed black and white photos. A number of halogen lights provided the room with a
warm atmosphere.
"We've been singing for hours, it's your turn now!" Shaoran said as
Yamazaki helped him practically drag Tomoyo closer to the monitor.
"But I don't sing," Tomoyo muttered looking at Kaho for support, too
bad Kaho was on Shaoran and Yamazaki's side.
"Come on, Tomoyo. Just one song!" Kaho said as she chooses from the
list.
"Do I really have to?" Tomoyo whined. Everyone nodded in agreement
except Eriol who was expressionless as he took a sip of his soda.
Slowly the music started to play with a soft yet fast melody. Tomoyo had no choice and closed her eyes, her grip on the microphone tightening.
For a good half minute she stood there unmoving, Eriol thought that she would sleep at the monotony. She then opened her eyes just in time to
sing the first lines of the song with such passion that everyone in the room became silent. She knew the song by heart- it was a popular pop song a couple of years ago and has been her favorite and right at that very moment she was singing it like as if she was its original interpreter. Her hand moving on its own, she just let her heart out, everyone's eyes glued on her
and the music playing at the background as she dances to the music.
"She's good... very good..." Eriol said in a whisper as he listened. Touya who was seating next to him could not help but smile. Eriol on the other hand went bonkers upon hearing two more buzzes from the thin headset
in his head. He mentally cursed himself for actually muttering such, he
himself don't understand what has gotten into him.
"It's probably the song," he reasoned to himself half guiltily,
Tomoyo looked at him surprised and oblivious by the whole grading system. Good thing the song just ended and the room was erupted with cheers
and applause.
"You're good! I didn't know you have a voice of a singer!" Touya said
as he applauded with the others.
"Thank you, I haven't sung for quite a while though, the feeling's
strangely different," Tomoyo said with a shrug as she took a seat.
"It was great! It was angelic! It was mesmerizing! It was so cool!"
Kaho said jumping up and down in delight.
"You groove there girl!" Yamazaki said patting Tomoyo by the back.
And they continued singing and dancing like as if there was no tomorrow. It was fun that they even had a group picture together, Tomoyo and Kaho holding out a v-sign with their hands, Yamazaki and Shaoran adding little horns on Eriol's head who was mischievously smiling at the camera
and Touya and Yuki-niichan smiling wickedly. Yup, it was fun...
---
"This is great!" Tomoyo exclaimed her eyes as round as saucers as they jump from one booth to another in excitement. They were now outside
the busy streets of Shibuya looking at the booths built for a certain festival and somehow the energy of the dark haired lass felt comfortingly
different in that cold Sunday evening.
The lads looked at her amused.
"Is this your first time to come to one?" Yamazaki said as they
browsed the merchandise in a jewelry stand.
"I got into one last year in one of my photo shoots but it was pretty different when you had bodyguards and camera men all over you," Tomoyo said
as she glance with awe the different booths.
"She's so naïve! How cute!" Yuki-niichan said with a rueful smile. Two more buzzes came to Eriol's headset surprising him for what seemed to
be the hundredth time.
"She's a child," Eriol said and much to his surprise the headset buzz
again totally puzzling him.
"The computer took what you said as a compliment. She has... wow, she
had 290 points already," Touya said in amazement as he looked at his
laptop's monitor.
"290????" Eriol exclaimed in disbelief.
"That's great! She's 190 points above perfect!" Kaho squealed in
delight.
"Give me a break," Eriol muttered walking a couple of feet ahead of
them.
"Sugoi! (How great!)" Tomoyo said in amazement as she watch a small fairy figure dance at the center of a polished metal music box adorned with
beautiful carvings, a soft sweet music playing in the background.
She smiled, mesmerized by the innocent beauty in front of her.
"Would you like it, odjousama?" an elderly woman manning the booth
asked kindly.
"Ah... eto (let's see)..." Tomoyo muttered wondering if she had brought
any cash in her purse.
"We'll take it Madam," a familiar deep baritone voice said handling a number of paper bills to the elderly woman who wrapped the music box in a
deep red cloth.
"Eriol!" Tomoyo exclaimed looking up at the man who purchased the
music box.
"Here," he said handling Tomoyo the music box. Tomoyo looked at him
with a questioning brow.
"It's for accommodating my friends foolishness, don't take it wrong,"
he muttered walking away.
Tomoyo could not help but smile. "Arigatou" she whispered.
"Tomoyo-chan over here!" she heard Kaho call her.
She looked at her back and found Kaho at a booth named Adoption
Center waving.
"Doshta no? (What is it?)" she asked running her way to Kaho.
"KAWAII (How cute!)" she exclaimed upon laying her eyes on the group
of kittens in the booth.
"Sodesho? (Isn't it?)" Kaho said in delight.
"Ne (Say), Eriol, can you buy me one?" Tomoyo asked looking up at
Eriol who was standing beside them with Yuki-niichan.
"You want a cat?" Eriol asked bewilderment totally in his voice. Tomoyo never acted chirpy and the idea of seeing her act like one surely is
strangely nice that it can drive him crazy.
"Um (Yeah), that one," Tomoyo said pointing to a dark blue kitten at
a far corner dozing off.
"But I already bought you a gift," Eriol said as Tomoyo shook him
continuously.
"But I've always wanted to have a cat! Onegai! (Please!)" Tomoyo
insisted still shaking Eriol and doing some puppy dog eyes.
"Why don't you just grant her request? The kitten looks very cute,"
Yuki-niichan said petting one of the kittens,
"... alright, alright, just let go of my sleeves, you're ruining my shirt,' Eriol said straightening his shirt as he reaches for his wallet.
"Alright! Thanks!" Tomoyo exclaimed in triumph, jumping up and down.
With the assistance of one of the clerks they had the dark blue
kitten with them, a red leash on its neck meowing sweetly.
"Each kitten in the Adoption Center is given a birth certificate every time it is adopted. What would you want to name your new kitten?" the clerk asked as she pulled out a neatly typed paper from a box and a black
fountain pen.
"Let's see... "Tomoyo thought as she looked around the place for an
idea. Her orbs fell on the dark blue shirt Eriol was wearing.
"Spinel... Spinel Sun" she said clapping her hands together.
"Spinel Sun?" Eriol repeated puzzled.
"Yeah, Spinel Sun. And his nickname would be Suppi-chan! How do youlike your new name, Spinel Sun?" Tomoyo said as she patted the kitten's
head. The kitten meowed contentedly.
"Odjousan no namaiwa? (And your name, miss?)" the clerk politely
asked.
"My name?" Tomoyo repeated.
"Hai (yes)" the clerk replied.
"Tomoyo. Tomoyo Daidouji." Tomoyo replied.
"And your name sir?" the clerk asked looking at Eriol.
"Me?" Eriol asked puzzled.
"Yes, sir. Your name please," the clerk said.
"Eriol Hiiragizawa," Eriol replied.
"Here you go. Thank you for adopting Suppi-chan, please do take good care of him," the clerk said handing the so-called birth certificate of the
kitten to Eriol.
"Thank you very much!" Tomoyo said as she hopped ahead of him
excitedly, little Suppi on her arms.
"How cute!" Kaho exclaimed as she joined Tomoyo in looking at the
other booths.
Eriol read the certificate and felt his jaws drop to the floor.
"Dostano? (What's wrong?)" Yuki-niichan asked looking at the surprise
Eriol.
"Na-nandemonai dayo (N-nothing)" Eriol replied trying to hide the certificate but Yuki-niichan was quick and was able to snatch it from him.
"What are you hiding anyway?" Yuki-niichan muttered as he looked at
the certificate.
"Give me that!" Eriol said as he tried to retrieve the certificate
but with no luck as Yamazaki and Shaoran hold him back.
"Let us see..." Touya said walking close to Yuki-niichan to read as
well.
"On this beautiful autumn evening of November 13 little Spinel Sun is adopted by his new parents, Tomoyo Daidouji and Eriol Hiiragizawa at the Adoption Center in Shibuya..." Yuki-niichan read out loud. Tomoyo and Kaho
stopped in their tracks.
"What?" Tomoyo stuttered.
"Isn't that sweet? You two are already parents!" Kaho squealed in
delight nudging Tomoyo slightly at the ribs.
"And he's such a handful. I'll be his godfather!" Yamazaki said as he
took little Suppi from Tomoyo' arms.
Eriol hit his head in disbelief.
"Great, just great... what's going to happen next?" he muttered to
himself.
And they went on to checking booth after booth with the lads "innocently" humming wedding marches behind Eriol's back and talking like
as if nothing was wrong when in front of Tomoyo. As of poor Eriol, he hardly has any idea how he managed to keep his sanity with his friends at
the background.
Tomoyo on the other hand was totally oblivious to the fuss the lads
are creating and was very excited of the whole trip...
---
Eriol appears on screen stopping a wild Shaoran and Yamazaki as Touya, Yukito and Kaho open drawer after drawer of Tomoyo's room who is at
the moment sleeping
Eriol: SOMEBODY HELP ME! Now Shaoran and the others are set to grade
Tomoyo's room! Much more when she is asleep!
I am in BIG TROUBLE!
Not again...
