Chapter 5
Tomoyo's Confession, and Eriol's Miracle Father
When the morning came, everything was cheerful and brightened by the sunlight, Sakura awoke with the sunlight in her eyes and got out of bed, almost tripping over herself getting up. When Sakura arrived at school, she was surprised to see everyone gathered around Tomoyo.
"What's going on?" Sakura asked.
"Tomoyo is getting her hopes up, she has that confession she has to make later." Naoko answered.
"What should I do Sakura, I'm so nervous and I don't know how to say it...I don't even know what he'll say..." Tomoyo asked, nervously, her voice shaking more then anything.
"Just wait and see how he says it, then reply the best way you can." Sakura answered trying not to laugh at her nervous friend.
"Okay..." Tomoyo replied.
The bell rang and everyone entered the school, it was a nice day and no one was in a bad mood. When class started, Naoko whispered to Sakura, she told her Tomoyo was going to tell Eriol at lunch time, after everyone eats, Eriol would have to say something then. Everyone was so excited, this reminded Sakura of how excited she was when Syaoran told her she loved her, then her hopes went down when he died. Now that Sakura was content, still thought about Syaoran with all her heart and never lost hope, she knew that she would always have Syaoran with her, dead or alive.
Class finished and everyone went outside for lunch, Tomoyo ate slowly, she was still nervous about Eriol and confessing her feelings. Then Eriol came and sat beside her, Tomoyo's heart started beating faster...she knew what was going to happen...he was going to tell her, then she'd have to tell him.
"Tomoyo..." Eriol started.
"Yes...?" Tomoyo nervously asked.
"I umm...I uhh...I Love you Tomoyo." Eriol finished.
"I...love you too...Eriol..." Tomoyo replied.
"Really?" Eriol asked.
"Really." Tomoyo answered.
"Will you go out with me?" Eriol asked.
"Okay." Tomoyo answered.
"You wanna, come to my place later and you can bring a friend, my father would love to meet you and umm...Sakura is it, the one who lost her love?" Eriol asked.
"Sure, yea that's her." Tomoyo answered.
So later on, after school, Tomoyo asked Sakura if she wanted to go with her to Eriol's house. Sakura agreed to go with her and they met up with Eriol. He led them to his house and led them inside. He sat them down in the living room and went to get his father. When he returned with his father, he turned out the lights and they sat down on the floor.
"Sakura is it...? and Tomoyo?" Eriol's father asked.
"Yes." Eriol answered.
"Well then lets see, Sakura, you are the one who lost your love to an unknown disease, correct?"
"Yes..." Sakura replied.
"Syaoran Li was it?"
"Yes..." Sakura replied.
"Alright. Tell me all about him."
"He was 17, had, short chestnut brown hair and amber eyes. He was open minded to everyone and never got mad, at anyone. He hated no one."
"Okay, and how did he die, what happened before he died?"
"He gave me my necklace and ring, and told me he loved me, but he was loosing his memories and had a high fever, he was very sick."
"I see. This disease, I know of it, and I also know, how to bring Syaoran back from the dead..."
Another short chapter, but it'll get much better next chapter.
