Author's Comments: I realize the pairing in the original has Touya with Yukito but in this story we'll make a special exception so please bear with me. To the helpful reviewer: Convoy Butterfuly thank you for the instructive review and to your question if it's necessary to have the ages like so, well it's mainly because Eriol would have been majoring in Law school the time he and Tomoyo dated and just so the older age makes the guy more mature at least in this case, then again Eriol always seemed mature but for those who didn't watch CCS it helps explain his character better this way I think.

Disclaimer: Card Captor Sakura belongs CLAMP. It would be nice if I owned them, but I'll settle with for the next best thing- writing fanfiction.

Revelations

Chapter 2: Unforgettable

Amethyst eyes slowly open as the morning rays dance upon a beautiful porcelain face. Slightly confused with where she was, the slim young women blinked a few times before realizing she had fallen asleep on the bungalow outside, which would explain the pancake crisscross marks that were surely imprinted on her back. Before she could sit up a shadow loomed over her.

"I thought someone had boldly kidnapped you in the middle of the night, and I was just about to set out and come to your rescue," a navy haired man smiled down at the young woman.

"So you were all prepared to come to my aid in a bathrobe? Now I know not to count on you when I'm truly taken hostage," Tomoyo gingerly got out of the bungalow and headed toward the hut. Mentally ticking off the schedule of events ahead of the day which was first to take a shower then to pack her bags-but before the young woman could finish her thoughts she paused at the doorway of the bedroom where a line of flower petals started from and led to the patio, ending at a table where a gorgeous tropical breakfast was laid out. Shocked with the sudden encounter of such a romantic setting Tomoyo blinked in bewilderment and turned to her boyfriend who was currently wearing a Cheshire grin.

"Wow …this…this is very thoughtful." The faintly blushing young woman had her right hand on her heart and turned around to look at the man with appreciation.

"This just goes to show you what a wonderful boyfriend you have and I'm hoping it'll bribe you back into good spirits." The man said warmly as he pulled the chair out for Tomoyo.

"I guess having you has its occasional benefits," Tomoyo tried to act cool but couldn't suppress the grin that broke across her face and for the remaining morning the two spent their time enjoying the meal and company.

After taking a shower and dressing in a casual purple t-shirt with a white jean skirt, Tomoyo grabbed her suitcase and headed out the door. As she stepped into the piercing glare of the sun she quickly put on a lavender designer sunglass and headed toward the resorts VIP lounge. By the time Tomoyo entered the Hawaiian styled room she saw that Eriol got them checked out and was waiting for her.

"The limo's waiting outside, the private jet that Syaoran set us up with should already be at the airport." Eriol explained as he helped Tomoyo with her suitcase which left her with only her purse to carry.

"Syaoran sure seems like he wants to get rid of us quickly, guess he can't wait for the honeymoon to start." Tomoyo laughed and mentally envisioned a little Syoaran and little Sakura and all the cute little outfits she could help design for them.

Soon the couple arrived at the small airway where it appeared many of the guest had already left but a familiar figure caught Tomoyo's attention.

"Mom! Are you heading back to Japan as well?" Tomoyo drew up to a woman slightly shorter than herself who had dark red hair cut in a short but chic fashion.

"Honey I'm afraid not, I have to head directly to New York first, there's some urgent business I need to take care of over there. Eriol, it's so nice to see you!" Sonomi Daidouji have her daughter's boyfriend a hug and stepped back to look at the perfect pair.

"Now Hiiragizawa how long do you intend on making my daughter wait for her special day hmm?" The regal women pointedly questioned the man before her.

"Mother!" A rare sight but as this would occasion, the normally collected Tomoyo Diadouji looked greatly embarrassed by her mother's actions.

"That all depends on dear Tomoyo, you see she already has me hopelessly twirled around her finger," replied the man with a smile and even though he appeared normal, Tomoyo could tell he was enjoying her embarrassment.

"I guess that means I should direct that question to Tomoyo, then it's settled darling, when I get back to Japan the very first thing we'll do is to discuss this important matter."

"Uh-but,"

"Now come along dear, the plane is being held up because of you two." Tomoyo's mother directed the pair to the private jet waiting on the airstrip, and gave a hug to both and a quick kiss to Tomoyo before heading to the Daidouji's personal jet.

"Don't take too much to heart with what mother just said, she's strangely become obsessed with the idea of having grandchildren," Tomoyo explained as she slowly walked up the docking stairs with her necked craned around to the man behind her.

"I don't see why we can't make that happen, of course we'll be lawfully married first," Eriol replied and noticed an argument was on the tip of his girlfriend's tongue. However she didn't continue and Eriol looked around her shoulder and noticed that they had company.

"Touya, Kaho I didn't know you guys were on this flight as well. It's been awhile, how are the both of you?" A beautiful woman with long coppery tresses smiled at Eriol while the black haired man next to her merely nodded.

"It really has been awhile, the last time we saw each other was over five years ago when we graduated from Cambridge, but more importantly what's this I hear of marriage between the two of you? Kaho gently questioned as she looked between a grinning azure eyed man and the beautiful woman next to him who was smiling uncomfortably.

"No need to worry, you guys won't be left out, when the day is decided we will surely send you two invitations."

"Yea and that's still up for discussion," Tomoyo smartly added and decided to take the sofa chair across from Kaho.

"Darling my heart's not made of lead it bleeds when you say such things," Eriol feigned pain which caused Kaho to laugh and Tomoyo to roll her eyes but smile despite herself.

"You two make such a fine couple, don't you think so Touya?" Kaho turned to the man that was silent up to the couple's entrance.

The man turned and looked at Tomoyo and after giving her a brief but significant look, cleared his throat and somewhat nodded.

"Uh - mmm."

"And what's your field of occupation Touya?" Eriol questioned kindly but Tomoyo noticed from his sudden darkening of eyes that he was dwelling on something.

"I'm a teacher."

"Don't be so modest, you're not just a teacher." Kaho inputted. "He's actually an Archeology professor at Tokyo University and quite the famous man in his field as well as on campus." The kind women added as she smiled at Touya who seemed slightly embarrassed with the praises.

"Really how so?" Eriol asked.

"Since I know Touya and that he'll only diminish his accomplishments, I'll give you two the details of what this guys been up to." Kaho then proceeded to explain in great lengths how Touya had uncovered an earth shattering discovery for the Archeology world, and what it could mean for the history of mankind.

"That's amazing." Tomoyo stared dazzled at Touya, which caused him to momentarily blush but he quickly recovered.

"It's not that big of a deal, it was my Dad who led me to the discovery site, he deserves half the credit."

"I see, but then again if you had misinterpreted the Latin writing on the walls and went into the wrong chamber you would have lost your life. You really weren't kidding when you said you were going with the Indiana Jones look." Tomoyo continued fascinated as Touya gave her a sheepish grin, both not realizing the slip captured the navy haired man's attention.

"That's exactly who the students on campus parallel him to, but instead of calling Touya Doctor Jones they just call him Doc."

"Alright so Doc. when you found the revolutionizing notebook what were your first thoughts?" Tomoyo asked with earnest interest.

"How ugly and shriveled the thing looked, actually when I first entered the chamber I didn't notice it. Even though it was the only book on the fallen shelf, it looked very insignificant."

"That's just confirms the old saying-"

"Don't judge a book by its cover," the two said at the same time and smiled and continued discussing Touya's adventure and discovery.

"While those two are delving into the world of Indiana Jones tell me what you did after college and more importantly how you and Tomoyo became an item." Kaho helped tear Eriol's gaze away from Touya and Tomoyo.

"I followed my passion into law school and met Tomoyo when she was an undergrad sophomore learning fashion. It was actually Suppi who helped me find her." Eriol recounted to Kaho how he was playing catch with Suppi his black cocker spaniel out in the college lawn and not paying attention to where he was throwing the tennis ball as he was absorbed in reading a law book, he didn't realize it had landed at Tomoyo's feet until he heard her melodic laughter. Tomoyo herself was under a shaded part of the lawn studying different fabrics and her own drawings of clothing designs until a bulleting mass of black hair charged strait at her and began to lick her.

"What a charming story, it does seem fate destined-." However before Kaho could finish, Tomoyo's enthusiastic voice unintentionally drew the attention back to her.

"And to think that this secret Counsel during the Dark Age had all these sacred mathematical formulas even before Archimedes and refused to apply them! Had these formulas been used back then, the technology today would have been astounding!"

"Exactly, the world we live in today would have been completely different in fact we could already be living on Mars." Touya added as he watched the young woman before him look awe-struck.

Shortly the pilot informed the four passengers that they are due to arrive at their destination in a few moments and to buckle their seat belts at this time. Once the jet touched land on the private airport Tomoyo and Eriol turned on their cellular phones. Almost immediately both phones began to ring.

Tomoyo quickly put on the wireless ear phone and intercepted the call. "Hello, I'm here."

"Tomoyo darleeng, it iz so good to hear your voize, I have been tryingz to get in touch wiz you for many dayz!" A heavy French accented voice spoke dramatically.

"Fernando what can I do for you?" Tomoyo asked as she waved bye to Kaho and Touya as she headed out the plane.

"Darleeng I needz you. A leettle favor iz all. Pleesz come to my fabulouz shoot tomorrow morning, bright and earlyz. I havz already eenformed Diana, yourz agent, about everytheeng nowz I only need yourz approval." The pleading up and down tone of voice did not persuade, instead it made Tomoyo want to laugh, nonetheless she agreed to this long time friend's request.

"Wondeeful, I will see thatz gorgeous face ob yourz tomorrow atz Tokyo Uneeversity!" With that the man hung up before Tomoyo had time to realize the location of the shoot.

Tokyo U! I can't go there, Touya and I ended on a good note discussing interests as common friends, and with some time apart things can stay that way. But I gave my word to Fernando already, and taking into account the size of the school in all likelihood I won't even have the slightest chance of seeing Touya.

But why did that thought seem to disappoint her? Tomoyo stepped into the white limo parked outside the airport, with Eriol entering after her still busy talking on his line. When Eriol caught her staring at him he gave her a warm smile and she forced a smile back. Mentally nodding.

This is how things should be.
