Chapter 2

Finally Happy

Author's POV

That day went on just as usual, Eriol was alone, sat in the back in chemistry, and Tomoyo was just as sad as usual. 'Why must my life be so miserable, if Eriol doesn't want me, then why do I care so much, what if my dream comes true though, what if he does ask me out and cheats on me…Why am I thinking about this, he wouldn't ask me out…would he?' she thought to herself while sitting in her private bathtub. 'Why can't he seem to notice my disliking of his girlfriends or my sadness when he is around…? Will he ever notice? Why not now?'

"AHH, my head hurts, must stop thinking…" she said out loud.

"TOMOYO? ARE YOU THERE?" A familiar voice called from outside her door.

"Yea, I'm here, hold on, let me get some clothes on!" Tomoyo replied playfully.

"Were you playing around?"

"NO! I was in the bathtub!" Tomoyo replied as she opened the door to find Sakura with Syaoran. "Oh, konnichiwa Syao-kun."

"Konnichiwa Tomoyo-san, we're here to"

"Ask you something, let's go inside for a minute." Sakura interrupted.

"Okay…Do you want some tea?" Tomoyo asked.

"Yes please! You know how I like it, Syao?"

"Hai, same as Sakura's."

"So what is it that you two wanted to ask me?"

"Umm…we've noticed that you've been acting really strange around Eriol-kun lately, like you hate him" Sakura was cut off by Tomoyo.

"NO! I don't…hate…Eriol…"

"Then what is it Tomoyo, we wont tell a soul, not even Eriol." Syaoran promised.

"I…can't say!" Tomoyo hesitated.

"Tomoyo, you know you can trust us, we wouldn't ever turn on you, that would make us the worst friends in the world." Sakura assured.

"I…Love Eriol-kun…" Tomoyo mumbled.

"Tomoyo…" Sakura was very surprised.

"I know it's stupid…he gets girls, leaves girls, never notices me, you'd think I'd give up by now…" Tomoyo explained.

"Tomoyo-san…how long have you loved him?" Syaoran asked worriedly.

"Ever since…he moved here…"

"…that long ei…I have the greatest idea! We can help him notice you, you just have to…" Sakura thought for a second and asked Syaoran to go back to the apartment and she'd be there in an hour or so, gave him a kiss and he left. "You know how to make your own clothes, so lets make some clothes, I'll draw that they should look like and you make them! Hai?"

"HAI!" Tomoyo was excited, she might finally get Eriol to notice her.

Tomoyo and Sakura sat around drawing and sewing skirts and dresses, it took them almost 3 hours, but when they finally finished, Tomoyo had 4 new outfits. One was an amethyst skirt, knee length with almost silent bells attached to long strands of silk that just came past her knees. The shirt was a lighter shade of amethyst and had a fake violet that was big enough to cover the bottom of the one strap on the shirt. Another outfit included a light blue halter top and a VERY short jean shit that was just enough to cover everything. One was an amethyst dress that had spaghetti straps and was down to her ankle. The skirt part of it had an almost transparent violet pattern, and the top was plain with a translucent scarf attached to the back that would hang down a bit, the middle would wrap around her arms and the ends would hang down. The last outfit was a beautiful royal blue one strap with a sapphire skirt that came just past her knees and had layers of translucent material that was the same colour and came a little bit farther then the previous one, there were about 5 layers in all.

"So?" Sakura asked.

"I love them, and they all fit wonderfully!" Tomoyo cheered.

The next day was a dress-down day, so she decided to wear the dress, hopefully he would notice her.
