Chapter One
:--------------------------------:
"Syao-kun!" a soft voice called out. A now 21 year old Syaoran turned around. He had on a large smile on his face, "Moyo," he said while she ran into his arms. Tomoyo giggled, her now short ebony hair flowing behind her. It had been two years since that incident and the three friends had learned to move on with their lives.
She gave him a soft peck on the lips, "Your place tonight?" Syaoran nodded, "I might be a little late." Tomoyo nodded in understanding, "Working extra shifts again?" Syaoran chuckled, "Yea hoping for a promotion." "Good luck with that," she said as his hands wrapped around her small waist, "Uh huh." Tomoyo giggled while giving him one last kiss; "I have to go to work now." Syaoran nodded touching her hand that held the silver ring that he had bought for her birthday, "All right."
They both went their separate ways for work. Syaoran stopped in front of Mai's Family Restaurant. It was in memory of the owner's late wife. "Hey I'm here!" he called once he entered the place. A man with brown hair and eyes stepped out, with a large smile on his face, "Glad you could make it Syao." Syaoran nodded, "Is Rika and Chiharu here yet?" "Did someone call me?" Rika Sasaki asked while bouncing from behind the boss. Rika had short reddish brown hair and soft brown eyes. She was around 16 years old with a large smile on her face. She was wearing a white apron over top the light blue uniform.
"Yeah, yeah we became before you lazy ass!" Chiharu Mihara called from behind Rika. Chiharu was the same age as Rika with long brown hair placed up in pigtails. Her brown eyes held power as she glared at the man in front of her; "You're late Syaoran!" Syaoran chuckled as he ruffled Rika's soft hair, "No I called in earlier," he said while sticking his tongue out childishly.
Chiharu fumed, "Oh I'll get you back!" she said well stomping off, "Let's go Rika!" "H-h-hai senpai!" Rika said while running after her. Syaoran chuckled while grabbing his own apron. "They are so much trouble," he said while shaking his head. The boss chuckled, "Yes, yes but it's worth it," he said while watching the two try to wash the dishes. Syaoran sweatdropped, "Right…."
The two men chuckled and continued on with their work.
:--------------------------------:
Tomoyo stopped in front of a glass building. She took a deep breath; this was where she ended up. She shook her head; she couldn't regret it now. It was all her fault she was here. She looked down at the ring on her finger, a smile appeared on her lips, she didn't care because right now she was happy and that was all that matter.
She walked into the building, straightening out her black dress suit. Walking in the elevator she took it to the third floor. She now worked in a sales place. After the accident she had stopped swimming realizing she just couldn't do it anymore. It reminded her too much of the past, of what she had lost that day.
All the times Sakura had just been there cheering her own were always in her mind. She couldn't concentrate on swimming anymore. So she had to quit, but now she had Syaoran. A large smile appeared on her lips, she finally had the one man her heart truly desired. Swiftly she walked towards her desk. A woman with short brown hair and black eyes smiled at her. She had a pair of glasses on and seemed to hold great intelligence. She was higher ranked in this company and was around the age of 28.
"Can you help me sell some stuff tonight?" Naoko Yanagisawa asked. Tomoyo nodded, "Sure thing." Naoko smiled lightly, "Okay than meet me in the front in five minutes." Tomoyo nodded her head and sat down in her large chair as she rested her legs. Today was going to be a long day. A beeping was heard and Tomoyo quickly picked up her lavender cell phone. It was a message from Eriol.
Still meeting tonight?
Tomoyo laughed, he was always very unsure. It was a wonder how the three of them stayed friends after all that they've been through. She quickly messaged him aback a yes. Placing her phone back in her purse she got ready to head to the front.
The two went around various companies trying to sell their new make up line. After a tiring day Tomoyo smiled at her friend, "Can I leave now?" Naoko looked at her questionably, "Meeting your boyfriend?" Tomoyo nodded, "We're meeting up with an old friend so I have to be there earlier." Naoko nodded but said softly, "Make sure you know what you're getting into." Tomoyo looked at her, "Nani?" Naoko's serious face was replaced by a smile, "Make sure you make it to work on time." Tomoyo nodded, "Arigatou!" Naoko just shook her off as she watched the woman run off towards the distance.
Naoko shook her head, she wished the woman luck. Who knows how long their happiness will last.
:--------------------------------:
Tomoyo wrapped a black trench coat around her slim body. She stepped into the restaurant looking around the quaint surroundings. "We're closed!" a brown hair girl snapped at her. Tomoyo turned, her amethysts eyes shining, "I'm looking for my boyfriend." The girl looked at her questionably, "And who may that be?" "Syaoran Li," she said softly.
Chiharu stared at her, "Syaoran? Geeze he has a girlfriend? Wow you must be crazy!" Tomoyo chose not to answer here, but instead sat down in one of the dark blue seats. Chiharu huffed, "I'll go get him." Tomoyo watched as the girl ran towards the staff area. She heard her yell out, "Syao your girlfriend is in the front." "All right!" Syaoran yelled and ran out.
His hair was all ruffled, but a large smile was on his lips, "Why are you here?" Tomoyo pouted, "Can't your girlfriend visit your workplace? I mean it's been a year and I still haven't seen you at your work." Syaoran chuckled, "Of course it's okay." Tomoyo nodded, "So ready to go? We're already late to meet Eriol." Syaoran nodded, "Okay!"
:--------------------------------:
The two walked towards the restaurant they were to meet Eriol at. When they finally arrived they both entered it looking for the blue hair man. Syaoran was the first to notice him. The couple walked towards him with Syaoran's hand around her waist. "Sorry for being late," Syaoran said while taking a seat. Eriol shrugged his shoulders, "Actually I just got here." Tomoyo looked at him questionably, "Honto? I thought you were supposed to be here half an hour ago."
With that Eriol let out a sigh, "Yes, but before that I had a date that was supposed to end…right about now. But the girl bailed on me." Syaoran touched his friend's shoulder comfortably, "Oh, it's all right man. I'm sure she'll come around." Eriol looked at his friend and nodded his head, "God I wish I could have something like what you two have."
Tomoyo blushed at that comment, "Let's hurry and get something to eat guys!" Eriol and Syaoran nodded their heads. They were all starving.
:--------------------------------:
After the meal Tomoyo and Syaoran left to go to Syaoran's apartment. While walking by the subway she stopped when she heard a familiar voice. "Remember to come earlier so we can have more of a warm-up before swimming," a happy voice said.
Tomoyo turned and froze when she saw the orange-brown hair. Amethysts met with soft brown. Syaoran held onto her shoulder tightly. "All right, bye girls," the girl said while carrying a light blue duffel bag similar to the one Tomoyo used to have. Wearing the Tomoeda High uniform she walked over to the couple.
She gave Tomoyo a death glare and than looked over towards Syaoran smiling softly, "I'm visiting Sakura now. You don't seem to care anymore onii-chan. Do you love this whore so much that you forgot all about her!" "It isn't anything like that!" Tomoyo retorted back. Miaka hissed at her, "I wasn't talking with you!" Miaka turned and walked off, "I don't have time to waste on you. My sister needs me!"
Tomoyo started shaking, her body keeping in the unfallen tears, "Gomen, gomen," she mumbled continuously. Syaoran held onto her shoulders, "Shh, it isn't your fault I chose you." Tomoyo nodded numbly in his arms.
When they reached Syaoran's apartment they both sat together by the bedside. Syaoran kissed her hand, Don't let what she said get to you." Tomoyo shook her head, "B-b-but she's right. I-if I hadn't taken you away you would still be with Sakura!" Syaoran held onto her tightly, "If it wasn't for you I wouldn't be who I am now! You have to get a hold of yourself Moyo and stay strong. She'll never wake up, you have to understand that!" Tomoyo stared at him, "How do you know?"
Syaoran grabbed onto her shoulders, "You and I both know the chances of her waking up are 1 out of a million, she won't wake up." Tomoyo looked at Syaoran and she smiled softly. Staring lovingly at each other they slowly leaned forward. Brushing his lips on hers they deepened the kiss. Wrapping his arms around her thin waist and pulling her closer towards him. Leaning downwards as the moon shined brightly above them.
Next Day
In the morning Tomoyo was the first to awaken. She touched his cheek gently. He looked so peaceful asleep. Tears appeared in her eyes, Sakura was also lying in a bed right now half dead and here she was living happily. She quickly placed her clothes from last night on and wrote him a quick note before leaving.
Hurrying to work she rushed through the elevators to her seat. "Hello Daidouji," Naoko called while she was writing. Tomoyo walked over towards her, "Yanagisawa-sama," she said while bowing politely. Naoko looked up scrunching her nose, "You wore that yesterday. Stayed at your boyfriend's house?" Tomoyo blushed embarrassedly.
"Gomen." Naoko shook her off, "I was like you once. But in the sales business we must always look our best. Bring a change of clothes next time." Tomoyo nodded her head, "Hai!" Naoko smiled, "Are you ready to go out?" Tomoyo nodded.
:--------------------------------:
Around this time Syaoran awoke wrapping the green robe around his body. He looked off towards the coffee table with a light smile. Tomoyo had made him some food again. Walking towards it he noticed a neatly written note, 'I'll come over tonight, remember to heat the food before eating! -Love Moyo
Syaoran looked at the toast on the table. He quickly heated it, he still had time before work.
:--------------------------------:
Tomoyo and Naoko had finished early so they decided to walk around together. Tomoyo stopped in front of a store. Naoko looked at her, "Planning to move in together?" Tomoyo turned to face her, "I want to, but I'm unsure about he feels." Naoko touched her shoulder gently, "IF you make no action you'll never get what you want." Tomoyo nodded her head, Yanagisawa-sama was right.
When she was returning to the subway to go to Syaoran's house she heard that same voice again, "Good job guys! Keep up the practice and we'll be in the finals for sure!" When the girl turned around she scowled. She opened her mouth and bit out harshly, "Never let me see you again you whore!" her brown eyes flaring, "I need to see my sister!" The girl rushed off as Tomoyo watched her retreating figure.
When Miaka finally made it to the hospital she smiled at the nurses on duty.A young girlhad long black hair with crimson red eyes. Beside her was awoman with short brown hair and bright blue eyes. "Come to see your onee-chan?" the 14 year oldMei Linasked. Miaka nodded, "Yes. Is she improving?"
The other nurse smiled brightly, "Mizuki-sensai said her health has been improving. But you can't go visit her yet. She's giving Saku-chan her daily check up right now." Miaka nodded and sat down on one of the blue hospital chairs.
"Miaka," a strong voice called out. Miaka quickly stood and smiled at the doctor. She had long flowing brownish red hair with the softest brown eyes. "You may see your sister now." Miaka smiled and rushed into the room. She looked at her sister with sad eyes, "You have to wake up soon before Tomoyo takes onii-chan away from you."
Her sister had gotten much skinner over the past three years. Her skin was pale, and her hair was now long and wrapped around her whole body. She noticed that by the bedside was a vase with a single cherry blossom branch in it. "I'll place some more water in it for you," Miaka walked off with the vase in her hand.
:--------------------------------:
When Tomoyo got to Syaoran's house she quickly cooked some dinner for the both of them. Hearing the door open she smiled brightly, "Your home early." Syaoran nodded, "Boss wasn't feeling that good today so we closed the shop earlier." Tomoyo nodded and placed some of the brew she cooked in a bowl.
They sat by the coffee table. "I have to leave after this," Tomoyo said softly. Syaoran looked up, "Why?" "Didn't bring a change of clothes." "Oh," Syaoran said while he continued eating. Tomoyo placed her spoon down nervously, "Maybe we should move in together." Syaoran looked up at her questionably, "Why? What's wrong? Is there something wrong with my apartment?"
Tomoyo looked at him teary eyed, "Its not that, it's just we live so far apart, a-a-and every time I looked at your apartment, it reminds me of her!" Tomoyo screamed and ran out of the room.
:--------------------------------:
Miaka returned with the vase in her hand. When she looked at Sakura she realized that her hand was hanging off the bed. Miaka placed the vase down and went to place her pale arm back under the covers. When she touched Sakura's hand she noticed her grip tightening. Miaka let go of her and noticed her fingers moving.
"Mizuki-sensai!" Miaka screamed.
Have you ever wondered what would happen if you had to choose between your first love and your new love? What is truly meant to happen no one knows for sure. But destiny brought her back to us, to show the world, that a new and different path shall be revealed.
(Since it took me so long to update I decided to give you a summary of next chapter!)
Sakura finally awakens, changing everyone's life. The worst thing is though, she believes that it's the day after the accident. And no one is telling her otherwise.
