Chapter 12: The Revival, Victory and Tears in one night...

It has been a week after the song has been finish, everything came back to normal. Tomoko never hunts Tomoyo in her dream again, Eriol and his friends will end their exams today and Spinnel and Ruby lessen their fights in the manor.

"Wake up sleepy head" A masculine voice greeted Tomoyo who is still fast asleep in her queen size bed

"Shut Up Hiiragizawa, can't you see I'm sleeping" Tomoyo then pull the cover up to her head

"I know you are still weak after performing the ritual but I really think you should get up now or else..." Eriol sat at the end of her bed

"Or else what?" She demanded

"Or else I'll tickle you until you really decided to run to the bath room" then his hands began to tickle her body again, Tomoyo burst out laughing really hard while trying to push away Eriol's hands

"Cut it out, fine I'll take a bath and cook breakfast now" Tomoyo then pull herself up and walk to the bathroom, but she look back to see Eriol staring at her "By the way, why are you up so early? You said you don't have any classes today right?"

"Why? Do you think you're the only one here capable of waking up before anyone else?" he answered while smirking, Tomoyo thinks for a moment then went inside the bathroom

After several minutes, Tomoyo went down to the kitchen and saw Eriol preparing breakfast

"What do you think are you doing?" She ask, she saw Nakuru walking towards her then ask her to sit down on one of the chairs "okay what's going on?"

Eriol came in carrying a bowl of fried rice and a plate of German sausages

"Nothing is really wrong, I just thought that you might want me to cook our breakfast at least let you taste one of my cooking" Then Spinnel enter the room carrying on his back a tray of juices "Thanks Spinnel"

"Well you really surprise me with these, but you know Eriol you really don't have to do this. I mean I know we have our relationship between us more than friends but this is still my duty you know" Tomoyo tried to stand up and help Eriol but he insist

"It doesn't matter, I also want to cook sometimes so just it's not a bother" Tomoyo was quite confused but she decided to just let him do what he wants

"Very well, then let's taste your cooking; you didn't use magic on this one, didn't you?" She ask before eating the food

"I guarantee you that its is a 100% hand cook by Hiiragizawa" Tomoyo receiving assurance continued eating her food

After a few minutes took her glass with juice and wipe her lips, she then look at Eriol, an evil idea came to her mind

"Your cooking is not bad but I must say that I am more superior than you in cooking" She commented not looking at him

"Is that so, then perhaps you wouldn't mind teaching me some of your tricks in cooking?" He began

"No problem, but it will cost another payment because I only apply here as a servant not a culinary teacher" She then gave him a very interesting look, Eriol chuckle

"Whatever you wish my lady" Then Eriol too started to eat his breakfast "Anyway I believe that you haven't forgotten that today is the day of the band tournament, right?"

"Of course, tell me when do we leave, and I could start fixing my things now" Tomoyo reply

"Later at 1:00 pm, the contest will start not until 3:00 pm but Drake ask us to came early to do some practices and to sign up too" He just finish easting his meal and now preparing to take his juice

"Okay, I'll be ready before the designated time"

After eating dinner, since it was Saturday Eriol went to the music room and play the piano like what he always do during weekends; Tomoyo look at her two helpers "Nakuru, Spinnel why don't you come with us to the festival later? We could spend so much time together just playing around like what we always do"

Nakuru and Spinnel smiles as they look at her and said before walking out of the room carrying their plates,

"That is very kind of you Miss Tomoyo but I have already made a promise with Ruby to go out with her and Yukito during the festival" Spinnel said refusing her offer

"Oh, I see, but how about Touya? Will he not come?" Tomoyo asked while cleaning the table

"He will but he is going to escort somebody who will arrive today" Nakuru butt in

'Escort someone? Is he up to another job?' she wonders than she heard Nakuru added more

"That reminds me, I think I have something to give to young master but unfortunately I have forgotten what it was" She said scratching her head. Tomoyo sweat drop

"Air head" Spinnel shot

"I guess I am" she shamefully agreed.

Time pass faster as they thought and the contest for the best band just began

"Okay, this is it; we've been practicing this song for 3 weeks now. I know it's scary but try not to" Drake said and swallowed real hard

"Let us pray that at least let us have a place in this contest" Kristine suggested and everyone agree to do that.

Tomoyo look at everybody and saw Juliet took Drake's shaking hands and hold it tight. When Drake look at her, she gave him an assuring smile. She also saw Mark tying a small ribbon on Kristine's wrist, she heard him say "This is for good" and Kristine can't help but to hug him. May is really busy fixing herself in her compact mirror; Tomoyo thought that May being the youngest of them all acts really mature.

Tomoyo took a deep breath then she suddenly remembers what happened a week ago, ' In two weeks, I have to say good bye to everybody' she thought

"Hey are you scared? I thought this would be easy for you who always performs to the big crowd?" Eriol tease as he place his arms around her shoulder "You look really cute tonight" he whispers

Tomoyo is wearing a leather turtle shirt with transparent jacket. The shirt was really short that her whole stomach was expose and a black mini skirt underneath is a leather Capri pants.

"Thanks, you don't look bad yourself either" She commented

Tomoyo, of course is the one who designed and made all their costumes. May as the incredible drummer is wearing a tube partner with long black leather Skirt; Kristine as the grand Violinist wear an off shoulder-long sleeves black leather shirt paired with flare pants; Juliet as the Ultimate second singer, is wearing a Venus cut shirt, small enough for her belly bottom to see and a pair of short shorts; Mark as the Rock-Bass guitar was designed to wear fitted black shirt and a straight cut pants; Drake as the Superior Leader and the Electric guitar maniac wore only a black leather jacket and a flare pants with some cuts; Eriol as the Magical pianist, agreed to wear black a sleeveless fitted black shirt but it was kinda daring because his stomach too is quite exposed.

"Tomoyo, you're really amazing, no wonder Hiiragizawa fell in love in you" May commented

"Thanks, I use to make costume for my best friend back in Japan seven years ago, that it became my hobby. So it's not a bother but a pleasure to make one for you."

"Hey, it's our turn now, are you ready?" Drake ask "LET'S SHOW TO THIS PEOPLE WHAT WE'VE GOT!"

"YEAH!" Juliet cheer

"LET'S ROCK THOSE CROWD, MEN!" Mark suggested

"LET'S GIVE THEM THE REAL MUSIC THEY DESERVE!!!" May demanded

"LET'S BEGIN THE PARTY GUYS!!" Kristine bolt in

"LET'S SHOW THEM WHO'S THE BEST BAND HERE!" Tomoyo was about to go in when she felt Eriol pull her to a tight embrace "Eriol?"

"After this, I want to show you something okay" Eriol look at her seriously

"Of course" she gladly reply giving him a sweet smile, Eriol being satisfied...

"LET'S BURN THIS PLACE UP!!!!!"

Meanwhile, Nakuru, Yukito and Spinnel has just arrived in the venue and easily found a place to cheer

"We made it!" Spinnel said

"Of course, I won't allow myself to missed this occasion" Nakuru said then began to cheer with other people as the band of Eriol came into view

"Yeah, so anyone want a sandwich?" Yukito offered

Meanwhile, Touya and his companion has also found their place

"Are you enjoying the show?" Touya ask

"Very much, hey isn't that Tomoyo chan?" the woman asks with interest

"Yeah, if you could remember she's my sister's best friend" Touya took the woman's hand

"How could I forget her, Touya. She is one of my diligent student in Tomoeda" She slightly giggle

"Kaho, are you sure about this?" Touya asks again

This time The red hair woman look at him staright to the eyes "Yes, I'm positive. You will help me do my plan right?"

Touya just nod his head and look back at the show. Kaho Mizuki smiled and return her gaze back to the two teenagers performing on stage

'Tomoyo Daidouji, the Song bird of Tomoeda, I should have realized this sooner to avoid that tragic incident we had, Eriol Hiiragizawa. I'm sorry but this time for sure, I won't make any mistakes'

.......

After they had performed as expected they've won the contest...The group decided to get separated to enjoy the festival privately with the other. As promised, as soon as the winners were announce Eriol and Tomoyo vanish from the view

"Where are you taking me, Eriol?" She ask giggling because they are in a hurry

"You'll see" was his only reply

Finally they have arrived in their destination...

"On top of the hill?" Tomoyo surprisingly ask

"Wait for a moment" he shortly reply. Tomoyo who is still confuse just obeyed the blue eye man besides her...

In a few minutes, fire works began to display, They sparkle like glittering stars in the sky, they formed different sizes and shapes, it also changes color as it falls down to the sky

"It's beautiful" she utters

"Tomoyo I don't want to be separated with you. I don't want you to go away, I don't want you to leave me alone" Eriol said as he embraces Tomoyo tightly but gently. He then presented him a small box which she gladly took. It contains a necklace with the pendant of a moon with wings. Eriol feels an endless happiness during that time but Tomoyo feels the opposite

'Oh Eriol, why...why does it have to be this way?' she said to herself as she remembers what her mom told her on the phone. Tomoyo can't help herself from crying that she started to let go from Eriol's arms

"This is probably one of my happiest day in my life but..." She paused, she tried to wipe away her tears

"But what Tomoyo?" Eriol's is starting to get worried, Tomoyo's tears are still falling like falls "Tomoyo what's wrong? For heaven's sake stop crying and tell me what's wrong?" Eriol's voice said as if he was yelling. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have done that"

Eriol offered his handkerchief

Tomoyo gladly accept it 'How am I supposed to say this to you Eriol when it kills me just by thinking of it' Tomoyo then hug Eriol with all her strength

"Eriol, mother called me a week ago..." she paused for a while, Eriol is trying his best to listen to her low voice, but somehow feel afraid of what might be coming "...She said that she has successfully gained back the company that were rich again"

"Then isn't that great, you don't have to worry about your mother" Eriol said but when he look at her amethyst eyes, it tells him different

"She asks me to go back to Japan and live with her again." Tomoyo's eyes began to form tears again

"What? Why? When?" Eriol ask all at once

"Two weeks from now, she book me to fly back in Japan" she confesses. Tomoyo waited for Eriol's reply but none came, this made her feel un easy "Eriol?"

"Let's go back, you might catch a cold when we stay here a while longer" Eriol lead Tomoyo back to the car and drove home. The trip back to the house were really deafening silent, none of them choose to break that one until they have arrived home

Nakuru and Spinnel greeted them at the entrance

"I thought you guys would spent more time alone at the festival, but I guess I guess it wrong" Nakuru joke, but Eriol didn't seems to get that as a joke

"Ruby Moon, what the hell are you talking about? Why don't you just do that you're your stupid Yukito" Eriol shot and went inside the library, Spinnel following him

Tomoyo walks besides Nakuru who seems to be really depressed at what happened

"I'm sorry, Nakuru. It's my entire fault why he is acting like that" Tomoyo said embracing the poor young woman

"No, master is really like that, but I understand him. I bet something just happened that made him feel that sad or lonely of perhaps he sense that something will happened really bad" She reasoned, trying to cheer herself

"Oh, Nakuru" She whispers

"By the way, I have finally remember what I am supposed to give to master" Then Nakuru took out a letter and a parcel and the two girls walk inside the room

"Master, I received this box with a letter two days ago, It came from Japan so I was having second thought whether I should give it to you or not" Nakuru explained

"From Japan?" Eriol took the parcel and read the letter; Tomoyo is looking at him and saw his expression as his eyes began to scan the letter

Everyone didn't dare to speak, not unless Eriol started it first...

"How dare she do this to me?" He yells, everyone in the room was startled and Tomoyo saw Nakuru shaking in fear and so does Spinnel

Then the door open and a red hair woman appear, It was Kaho Mizuki

"So you have finally received my letter and gift for you birthday, Eriol"

"Miss Mizuki?!" Tomoyo exclaim 'So that is why Eriol's been acting so strange, it's his birthday'

"Nice to see you again and congratulations for winning first place" She walks towards Tomoyo and give her a hug

"So you have watched her performance?" Tomoyo ask and she nods her head while smiling

The scene was interrupted when Eriol's angry voice explode in the room

"What the hell do you want, Kaho?" He asks

"Why didn't you ready my letter? It said that I'll be staying here in your manor for two weeks as a vacation house" she reply taking a sit at the nearest Sofa "I heard that you have finally finished the Sonatas between Reed and Tomoko"

No one said a word to that, and silence began to embrace the room again

"Do whatever you want" Eriol said turning away from everybody

'Eriol' she thought

"Hey Tomoyo, would you mind showing me my room?" Kaho pulled Tomoyo's arms with her "I don't think Eriol mind if I choose any room I want now"

Tomoyo look at Eriol first when she saw no reaction, "Sure"

'God, why does this always happened to me? Am I not allowed to love someone forever?' Eriol said as tears began to flow out of his azure eyes 'All this happened in just one night....'

Okay, this chapter maybe next to the ending but then again, may be not. So just watch out okay....R&R please....-saphyre
