Hey everyone! Sorry…. but I replaced the other chapter 5 BECAUSE IT WAS JUST PLAIN CRAPPY…
I was suddenly inspired to do another chapter… and it also serves as a Birthday chapter from me to myself for my birthday this March 14…
READ AND REVIEW (that would be the best gift you could give me now, except maybe for an I-pod... or immensely high grades for my final Exams)
Chapter 5 BRAND NEW
The morning was full of sunshine, the birds were singing, the bees were buzzing, and everybody was generally happy, except for one concern-stricken individual. A certain grumpy and annoyed individual who happened to go by the name of Hiiragizawa Eriol.
He who was so rudely snatched from the door step of his beloved Plum Blossom last night now radiated gigantic waves of grief, depression, annoyance and anger on his way to school. The only thing that made matters worse was the fact that he was so rudely awakened at 5 am because that stupid idiot of a descendant of his called him. Imagine! That stupid potty head had the nerve to call the Great Eriol Hiiragizawa at the crack of dawn and for what reason? TO GLOAT OVER THE KISS HE HAD GIVEN HIS GIRLFRIEND AT LAST NIGHT'S PARTY.
Eriol seriously lamented that he missed the party, but the truth was, that it wasn't his fault. And any idiot would be lamenting over missing the celebration of his beloved's return just to get threatened by the Card Mistress' older brother, Moon and Sun Guardian, and even his own guardians. Yup, you heard right. HE WAS KIDNAPPED AND HELD AGAINST HIS WILL.
It turned out, the real reason Sakura and Li were late to Tomoyo's party, as Toya had explained last night, was because they held a secret meeting to discuss a little issue. This "issue", was in fact a plan to get Eriol and Tomoyo together. Sakura had noticed the loneliness from Tomoyo, as with the adoration from Eriol, and had simply put two and two together. Damn her.
So the Cherry Blossom had commissioned her older brother, Yue, Kero, Ruby Moon, and Spinel to kidnap Eriol, send a fake text message so as to throw Tomoyo off suspicion, and they, um, "talked" to him about this "situation". To put it bluntly, they showed him his baby pictures, yep, including the one where he was licking the cat, even the one where he had his diaper on his head and not on his bottom. Oh hell, they even had the one where he was dressed in Li's now infamous bunny pajamas and bunny slippers and had eye shadow and lipstick one. Oh, and he wasn't a baby when he was wearing those hideous things.
Eriol's anger quickly subsided and changed to horror and nausea when the aforementioned kidnappers held up wads and wads of photocopied pictures. He was definitely about to barf because they had dropped an even bigger bombshell on him. They threatened to post the pictures around town and on the Internet if he didn't comply with their demands. Oh, the horrors.
Yue then explained the conditions that Sakura had set up for Eriol. He was given an ultimatum, saying that he was supposed to confess his love to darling Tomoyo within 3 days, or the pictures would be set up. Kero then butted in, and explained that they had a set of rules for him. If he broke any of the rules, the pictures would automatically go up and it would be time to say good-bye to his reputation. Toya handed him a piece of paper, and Eriol read it. Sure enough, these were the rules.
RULES FOR A LOVE CONFESSION:
(Specially adapted for the current situation of the one confessing)
1) Rule Number 1. You are not allowed to tell the object of your affections about the spell. You may only tell her once the spell has been broken.
2) Rule Number 2. If you so much as hurt the object of your affections in any way, you will be subject to multiple poundings, wounds, cuts, and so much more, courtesy of Li Syaoran. And last,
3)Rule Number 3. You are not allowed to cast any love spells on the object of your affections, neither are you allowed to use love potions, charms, and anything else of that sort to speed up the process.
Eriol had numbly agreed to follow the rules, and they then explained that he was not to attend the party that evening. The pain Eriol felt upon hearing that announcement was great enough to send him to the deepest parts of the earth to wallow forever in pain, sorrow, and misery. He said so to his kidnappers, hoping they would let him out, but the heartless demented freaks just laughed cruelly in his sad pleading eyes.
They kept Eriol in captivity until 3 am, and then they released him. At least Eriol had gotten his revenge on them by casting a spell to keep them in rashes for a week. Ha, last time he checked this morning, Spinel and Ruby Moon were still scratching pretty hard. Oh, the joys of insane spell-casting.
The Great Hiiragizawa (or so his ex-fan club used to call him), bumped into someone HARD, as a result of thinking too much over the events that had passed last night. Their heads collided and they were both sent sprawling to the ground. He was about to growl and threaten the person he bumped into, when a vision of beauty so great it could surpass the gods' came into his view. Of course it was his one and only Tomoyo with whom he had collided with.
"Oh, it's you Eriol," said Tomoyo while rubbing the back of her head with her hand. She had dropped her books and school bag, and tons of love letters, flowers and chocolates had spilled from it. Eriol looked suspiciously at these tokens of love, convinced that this was a joint ploy from all the other evil Girlfriend-Stealers at school, trying to steal his lovely Tomoyo from his caring hands.
Tomoyo noticed him staring at it, and blushed out of sheer embarrassment. "Oh, Eriol-kun, these I found in my mailbox this morning. Im sorry you had to see these, as they were on their way back to those who had sent them in the first place," she laughed sheepishly.
"Oh, it's no problem my dear sweet Tomoyo-chan," smiled the "Great Hiiragizawa". Tomoyo merely smiled at him, her cheeks rosy and her eyes bright. Eriol just couldn't help himself this one time, she looked soooo pretty, so he leaned in for a kiss. He was excited in anticipation of the wondrous gift and joy he was about to receive, so imagine the surprise he felt when his face smashed hard into the concrete sidewalk. Damn, it really hurt like hell.
"Oh, Eriol-kun! Are you okay?"
Eriol looked up and saw his beautiful angel standing up, her pretty face etched with worry for him. He smiled and nodded his head.
"Eriol, I think you should go to the Emergency Room. Some of your teeth are missing, and I think your nose is broken."
"Never fear, my dear Tomoyo, I can just mend it here. I am a magician, you know," said Eriol with a wave of his hand, and instantly his injuries healed. Tomoyo stretched out a hand to him, and he gratefully took it. Soon, he was standing right next to beauty itself.
"Tell me Eriol, where were you last night?" inquired the Daidouji heiress.
"Oh, I was kidnapped by Sakura's evil gang of minions, and they held me captive until 3 am, and threatened me with baby pictures," came the reply. Tomoyo laughed at the tall tale being told to her, and convinced herself that Eriol was as great a kidder as Yamazaki. But we know the truth, don't we?
"Oh, Eriol-kun, you really are a fantastic fibber."
"My dearest Tomoyo, you know I only tell the truth. How was the party by the way?"
"Nothing much, but it was pretty exciting when Sakura and Syaoran played Seven Minutes in Heaven, unaware that I have security cameras in all of my closets. They were so embarrassed when I showed the surveillance tape to all of my guests"
"Wow, you must be the only person I know of who keeps security cameras in your closets. Now it's gonna be really hard for me to try and steal some more of your underwear for my shrine dedicated to you." Eriol mentally slapped himself when he heard his mouth blabbering about his secrets.
"Don't flatter me Eriol, I know all about how you adore Li" smiled Tomoyo. "Sakura told me last night about how dedicated you were to him especially in the 5th grade. So tell me, are you really gay? I've been dying to know forever."
The Now-Not-so-great Hiiragizawa went into shock, and stared at his beloved with great horror.
"Me, gay! Hell no!" shouted Eriol.
"Oh relax Eriol, I was just kidding. Of course you aren't gay," smiled the wily Tomoyo, glad at her success in giving Eriol a heart attack. Figuratively, of course.
"Now, don't be a party pooper, and let's hurry up and go to school. Race you!" and with these words, the Plum Blossom took off running towards the direction of the school.
"Last one there is a rotten egg!" she shouted good-naturedly, her long hair flying in the wind.
Eriol took off running, and soon caught up to Tomoyo. The neared the school gates, dodging several puzzled students. The Clow Reincarnation was near to the finish line, when all of a sudden he hit a post HARD.
"Oh, Eriol-kun, are you okay?" A breathless Tomoyo caught up with him and slowly helped him up.
"Im okay as long as you're always near me, my dear."
"Well, in that case, first one to the classroom is the winner!" She took off running again.
Eriol grinned and ran as hard as he could. He ran straight into a door.
