It was a hot boring afternoon. Tomoyo lay on the soft mattress, the hot afternoon breeze blowing on her face.
She was quietly thinking of how long it had been since she last saw her best friend, Eriol; it had been such a crash-and-burn moment for him. She closed her eyes and wished she could have done something for him.
"Maybe I could go visit him now!" she thought, sitting up. "But what if he doesn't want to see me?"
After a few moments of thought, she finally sighed; "It doesn't hurt to try" she smiled, and lazily stood up.
She checked herself in the mirror, changed into Saturday clothes, got on her sandals, grabbed her keys, and walked out the door.

The afternoon breeze felt good, to Tomoyo as she walked down the sidewalk; she passed by shops & cafes lining the street, and saw a chocolate shop. She smiled to herself as she entered, there weren't much people inside the shop; heck there weren't anyone there at all, or so she thought.
She passed by shelves and shelves of yummy looking chocolates, and decided on which chocolate to buy.
As she walked by the shelves filled with delicious chocolates, she didn't notice a guy passing by, and accidentally bumped into him.
"Waah!"
Tomoyo braced herself from the fall, but then a pair of strong arms caught her, just in the nick of time.
Tomoyo opened her eyes to thank her saver, and surprisingly met a pair of sapphire blue ones.
"o-oh Hiragizawa-kun" Tomoyo stuttered.
"You should be more careful next time, Tomoyo" he replied smiling.
Tomoyo froze; did he just call her T-O-M-O-Y-O?
She looked up at him, and gave him a questioning look.
He chuckled.
"C'mon" he said handing her a box of chocolates.
"What's this?" she asked looking at the box, as Eriol led her out of the shop.
"I believe that is a box full of chocolates" he said, sarcastically.
Tomoyo rolled her eyes, "I know that, but, what for?!"
He smiled. "Well, I was thinking of giving you a visit, but, it seems you got to me first."
Tomoyo grinned. "You know what's really weird?" she asked.
"No, not really, what?" Eriol answered.
Tomoyo giggled. "O c'mon Eriol you always know everything."
"No, I don't" he replied.
"Yeah right" Tomoyo said, rolling her eyes.
Eriol smiled. "Anyway" he said. "Since you're here why don't we, just take a walk?"
Tomoyo smiled, as they started to walk. "Sound's good to me."
* * * *
"And remember the time you thought that it was a real book, but when you opened it, out came all of does yucky green stuff that looked like boggers" Tomoyo laughed.
"Oh yes, I remember that" Eriol grinned. "It seems that you have a sharp memory for those kinds of things."
"It's a talent" Tomoyo said, sticking her tongue out.
Eriol shook his head, smiling.
Tomoyo lead the walk down a narrow path in the park, as Eriol followed closely behind.
"Be careful, Tomoyo, you might get lost" Eriol warned, making Tomoyo stop.
He chuckled. "So, she's still afraid of being left behind." Eriol thought. As he placed his hands on both of Tomoyo's shoulder and whispered. "Don't worry I'm here."
Tomoyo smiled. "So I thought."
* * * *
The sun was setting, as Tomoyo and Eriol settled on one of the park bench, which had a pretty good view of St. James' Park's lake.
Tomoyo gave a satisfying yawn, as she settled herself on the bench. "You know, I haven't really congratulated you." she said.
Eriol looked at her. "Congratulated me for what?"
Tomoyo smiled, as she played with the hem of her dress. "You know, your performance, silly, I mean it was great, really!"
Eriol smiled. "Thanks."
"So" Tomoyo said, trying to start a conversation, seeing that Eriol was lost in thought. "How're you and Mizuki-san going?"
Eriol frowned, at that, Tomoyo bit her lip and crossed her fingers behind her back, regretting the fact that she was so stupid to bring a subject like that.
"Well" he started. "She sorta broke up with me…"
"Oh" Tomoyo said, placing a hand on Eriol's shoulder, trying to comfort him. "C'mon Eriol I know your better than that."
Eriol gave her a questioning look.
Tomoyo glanced up at him. "Who'd ever thought of such a good guy like you end up with a bad guy like her, I mean, oh please." she joked, trying not to look at Eriol.
He was quiet for a while, Tomoyo was beginning to worry. "Oh gosh, that must be the worst thing I ever said, me and my big mouth!" she thought.
After a while Eriol chuckled. "You know, you make the funniest compliments." he grinned.
Tomoyo smiled.
"Come on, it's getting late" Eriol said. "Walk you home?"
Tomoyo's smile widened. "My pleasure." she said, taking Eriol's hand, as they started back down the path, home.
