I'm disappointed that not a lot of people reviewed my fic, butthe more I work on this fic, the more I get inspired, so if you cross your fingers, I might actually go through with this fic without disappearing for god knows when.
Also, I've been thinking about continuing my fic, "Please Don't Cry". But before I raise false hopes, I'm going to start off by editing that fic. I'm not exactly happy with the format I've used for it, and I might change some things around. But that's still on the maybe pile. So for now, just cross your fingers and hope that I actually get my butt working on it (well, that is, if college doesn't put a hold on me again).
Anyway, I've kept you guys here long enough. On to Chapter two!
Chapter 2: Where are we?
Tomoyo slowly opened her eyes, and the first thing she saw was Eriol's face.
"Well hello there, Tomoyo-chan," he said, grinning. Tomoyo sat up, rubbing her eyes. When she opened them again, what she saw made her scream in surprise.
Eriol and her were in an island.
Tomoyo looked down on herself, and what she saw made her blush.
She was in a bikini.
Apparently, Eriol had been reading her thoughts, because he chuckled when she saw her face.
"Don't worry Tomoyo-chan, you look great in light blue," Eriol said, grinning. If possible, Tomoyo turned red. She pushed Eriol off her (now how did he get on top of me? Tomoyo thought) and stood up, brushing off the sand that got stuck on her. Then she looked around, and although she has no idea where she is at the moment, the scenery was beautiful.
"Eriol-kun, do you have any idea where we are right now?" Tomoyo asked, still looking at the scenery. Eriol stood up, dusting himself off as well. He stood beside Tomoyo, watching the scenery as well.
"For once in my life, I'm just as clueless as you are," he replied, admiring the view as well. Tomoyo turned to him, but as she did, she began blushing once more. She didn't notice that Eriol was in swimming trunks, which exposed a perfectly-toned upper body. Eriol looked at her, and noticing Tomoyo's pink-stained cheeks, he chuckled again.
"Tomoyo-chan, did you know it's rude to stare?" he asked, jolting Tomoyo back to reality. She turned red even more and glared at Eriol.
"Can you put on a shirt at least?" she retorted, crossing her arms over her chest. Eriol continued to chuckle.
"I would if I had one," he replied. Tomoyo looked around her and noticed that once again, Eriol was right. There was no shirt lying around anywhere. Tomoyo sighed and sat back down, wrapping her arms around her legs and resting her chin on her knees.
"Eriol-kun, do you remember what happened before we got here?" she asked. Eriol sat beside her.
"Well, as I recall, I was in the soccer field, playing against our school rival," he said, thinking. Tomoyo thought hard as well.
"And I remember packing my stuff to go home and wanting to have a nice, warm, bubble bath," she replied. Tomoyo sighed at the thought of her nice bath tub.
Too bad I never got that bubble bath, she thought. That thought surprised her.
I never got my bubble bath? Why not? she thought. Clearly there was something she was forgetting. Suddenly, an image of Sakura flew to her mind, and that's when it clicked.
"But I never got my bubble bath because Sakura-chan dragged me to watch the soccer game you boys were having," she said, suddenly remembering everything. Eriol, upon hearing what Tomoyo just heard, was also slowly figuring things out.
"I remember now," he claimed, standing up and started pacing back in forth in front of Tomoyo, who was watching him intensely.
"I remember seeing you standing across the street and I waved you over. But before you even made it across the street..." he trailed off, thinking really hard. Tomoyo, who continued to watch him pace, started to feel dizzy.
"Eriol-kun, can you stop pacing? I'm getting so dizzy I might pass out," she said, rubbing her temples. Eriol stopped in his tracks. An image of a car flashed before his eyes, and he turned to Tomoyo with wide eyes.
"You almost got hit by a car," he stated, staring at Tomoyo's amethyst eyes. Tomoyo stopped rubbing her temples and stared back at Eriol's eyes. Everything seemed to come back to her the moment he said that.
"And then you saved me before I blacked out," Tomoyo finished. When she finally noticed that she was still staring at Eriol (who was staring right back at her), she blushed and looked away.
"But I still don't understand how we ended up from Tomoeda to... Wherever this place is," she said. A thought struck her, and she turned back to Eriol with wide eyes.
"Eriol-kun, are we dead!" she cried, fear bubbling up inside her. Eriol smiled softly at her.
"Somehow Tomoyo-chan, I highly doubt it," he replied. Tomoyo gave him a skeptical look.
"And how would you know that?" she asked. Eriol looked thoughtful.
"It's a feeling that I have," he said, shrugging. Tomoyo rolled her eyes.
"We can't always depend on your feelings, Eriol-kun," she replied, placing her hands on her hips. Eriol went over to her and placed his hands on her shoulder.
"Trust me on this Tomoyo-chan," he said. For some reason, Tomoyo believed him. She smiled at him.
"Okay," she sighed. Then she looked at her surroundings.
"So, what do we do now?" she asked. Eriol looked around as well, and noticed a house just off the shore to where they were.
"Did you notice that house over there?" he asked, pointing. Tomoyo looked to where Eriol was pointing, and noticing the house that she's never seen before, her eyebrows furrowed.
"No, I've never noticed that house before," she replied. Eriol turned to Tomoyo, smiling his usual I'm-up-to-no-good smile.
"tomoyo-chan, how would you feel about exploring?" he asked. Before Tomoyo can reply, however, Eriol had grabbed her hand and was already making his way towards the house. Tomoyo couldn't help but giggle.
Kero-chan, who was guarding the unconscious couple, was slowly drifting off to sleep.
No, must stay awake, he thought, slapping himself. He seemed to have slapped himself a little too hard, however, because the force of his slap made Kero-chan go off-balance and to fall to the floor. Kero-chan rubbed his head.
That hurts he pouted. Suddenly, movement on the bed made Kero-chan fly back to see what has happened.
Eriol and Tomoyo has now switched positions; Eriol was facing the wall with Tomoyo right behind him, facing his back. They were still holding hands (How can they do that? Kero-chan thought), but it looked as if they were having the time of their lives, because both Eriol and Tomoyo were wearing grins on their faces.
Suddenly, Tomoyo giggled. Kero-chan stared at the two more intensely this time, but nothing else happened after that. Kero-chan sat on the foot of the bed.
If only I knew what was happening to you two, he thought, slowly falling into a deep slumber.
Okay, so that was Chapter 2. Please review! Now here's the preview for Chapter 3:
Thanks to Eriol, Tomoyo doesn't need to feel embarrassed about wearing nothing but a bikini. It looks as if Eriol feels the same way, because as soon as Tomoyo saw him, he was wearing a shirt as well.
"Thanks for the shirt again, Eriol-kun," Tomoyo said, smiling. Eriol smiled back.
"Don't thank me. Thank whoever left this house," he replied. Tomoyo and Eriol were just about to head off to the kitchen to find food when there was a knock on the door.
Tomoyo and Eriol gave each other confused looks before Eriol went over to the front door and opened it. He was even more surprised to see who it was.
"Cerberus?"
