Chapter 12 There and back again….

“What the hell do you think you are doing…?” said Eriol to himself as he hung the phone. He then ran his hands through his hair pacing around his room like he used to do when he was nervous. “Come on you idiot YOU lost her… but…” he said dropping himself in bed and thinking about the day.

***

The next morning at Kinomoto’s house

Sakura opened her eyes as the sunlight entered her room through the window. She and her husband had decided to leave everything ready for the trip back to Hong Kong the night before so that they wouldn’t be on a rush in the morning. They had fallen asleep hugging each other tightly as they used to. Sakura looked up at the face of her sleeping husband and smiled as she thought he looked like a little kid. She kissed his lips tenderly trying not to wake him up and she sighed as a thought came into her mind.

Flashback
“Yes? You said yes?” asked Sakura not believing what she was hearing.
“Yes! Isn’t it great? He is so kind and I… love him.” Said Tomoyo happily.
“Oh don’t insult my intelligence Miss. Daidouji. It is OBVIOUS that you are in love with no other than Eriol.”
“That was long time ago…”
End of flashback

The way Tomoyo had said it didn’t sound convincing to Sakura. She wondered if her best friend was going to wake up with the same joy and love Sakura felt for her husband.

“good morning.” Said Shaoran in a drowsy voice and kissing Sakura’s hand.

“Did you sleep well?” she asked him with a smile.

“Yeap…what time is it?”

“Almost 7 o’clock…” she said looking at her clock in the bedside table.

Shaoran kissed again Sakura’s hand and got up to the bathroom. Sakura stayed in bed and took her cellphone to call Tomoyo.

“yes?” said Tomoyo.

“good morning Tomoyo!” said Sakura cheerfully. “I hope I didn’t wake you up…”

“Oh no don’t worry. I’m actually taking breakfast.” Tomoyo used to wake up very early in the morning.

“I hope you enjoy it…”

“Yes, thanks.”

“Listen… I’m going back to Hong Kong.”

“Oh no…” said Tomoyo sadly. “I thought you were staying a little longer.”

“Me too but there are some issues we must solve there.”

“When are you leaving?”

“Today… our flight is at 12 o’clock but we must leave at 10 am.”

“What?! Oh gosh! All right, I’ll take you to the airport. I’ll be there at 10 am sharp all right?”

“Tomoyo really, we don’t want to bother you. Don’t worry, we can take a cab.”

“Are you serious? Do you think you’re leaving without saying good bye? Of course you are not! I’ll see you there later, say hi to Shaoran!” Said Tomoyo and then hung the phone.

Sakura smiled and placed the phone in the bedside table and then she covered herself with the bed sheets.

“I’m hungry.” Said Shaoran coming out of the bathroom and getting inside the covers next to Sakura.

“I’ll go down and make us some breakfast…”

Sakura tried to get up but her husband grabbed her hand and made her lie again in bed. He then got on top of her and, giving her a mischievous look, started kissing her neck.

“Hunny…” said Sakura stopping Shaoran who looked at her. “I thought you were hungry.”

“I am.” He said kissing her lips. “I’m having my own cherry pie for breakfast, right here, in bed.” He said staring to kiss again her neck and all the way down to her belly which made Sakura giggle.

“Shaoran… wait!” she said in between giggles and pushing her husband apart.

“What?” he said smiling at her.

“We are still in my father’s house. He AND my brother are sleeping in the rooms next to this.”

“Oh don’t worry cherry pie.” He said to her ear in a seductive whisper. “I promise to eat every inch of you without making any… noticeable sound…”

Sakura blushed and smiled at her husband.

“I love you so much…”

And they stayed in bed loving each other until it was time for them to get ready to leave.

“Mom?” said Tomoyo entering her mother’s bedroom.

“Yes baby?”

“I’m taking Sakura and Shaoran to the airport.” She said taking her car keys.

“Oh, are they leaving so soon?”

“Yes, they must return to Hong Kong to arrange some things at their home.”

“All right then hunny, tell Arista to drive safely.”

“I’m taking the car, mom.” She said leaving.

“You’ll see her at the airport then…” Said Sonomi making Tomoyo roll her eyes and leave as fast as she could.

She arrived to Sakura’s house and rang the door bell, Touya opened the door.

“Hi Tomoyo!” he said with a smile.

Tomoyo froze when she saw him but then smiled back.

“Come in! My sister and her pet are waiting for you…” he said with a smirk making Tomoyo giggle.

“I heard that!” Sakura shouted from the other room.

They arrived at the airport and it was time for Sakura and Shaoran to go to their gate so they said good bye to each other and then left promising Tomoyo they would call as soon as they got to Hong Kong. Touya looked at Tomoyo’s sad face.

“Well, I guess that leaves you and me to have fun, yippe!” said Touya in a sarcastic way smirking at Tomoyo making her smile.

“Well then I guess you can walk back home…” she said pointing a menacing finger to him.

“Miss…” said Arista to Tomoyo. “Your mother is on the phone.”

“Yes mom” said Tomoyo taking the cell pohone.

“Hunny, I need Arista to come back and do me a favor. Who’s with you?”

“Um… well, no one important.” She looked at Touya. “Just Touya.”

He poked his tongue at her like a child which made her giggle.

“Oh… I thought Eriol was with you…”

“Eriol?” Tomoyo shivered at the sound of his name. Touya noticed it and frowned. “No mom… I haven’t seen him lately.”

“Well hunny I guess Touya will take care of you. Give the phone to Arista…Drive safely.”

“Thanks mom…Here…” said Tomoyo to Arista hanging her the phone. Then she turned towards Touya. “Come… mom wants you to babysit me…”

Touya smiled at her and they both went to the car.

“I like that song.” Said Touya turning up the volume on the car radio. Tomoyo just kept driving.

“Tomoyo…” said Touya looking at her.

“Yes?”

“Can I ask you something?”

“Sure, what is it?”

“I don’t know why but… well, you know I’m kind of a very perceptive person and… well I don’t know why I feel there is something wrong happening to you and you won’t tell me.”

Tomoyo remembered Yue has warned her about this so she took a deep breath and said;

“and, why do you think that?”

“Many things. The way you have been acting in the last months, that guy, Kakero who I, for some reason, don’t like…”

Tomoyo smiled at him.

“And… call me a liar if you want but I think you’ve fallen for the English jerk.”

((- Oh gosh…. Oh gosh ok ok…. Calm down…. Breathe…. Breathe… BREATHE….))

She took a deep breath and said.

“Many things have happened in the last months. I guess it’s just everything, including the…kidnap… I‘ve been a little distracted…”

They arrived and Touya got out of the car.

“Even if Sakura is gone for now you know you can still call me any time ok?” said Touya through the car window.

“Don’t worry, I will.” And she then drove back home feeling relieved as Touya was not in danger anymore.

“Welcome back miss.” Said one of Tomoyo’s maids as she entered the house.

“Thank you Ria.” She said smiling at her. “Is my mother still here?”

“No miss, she left about an hour ago.”

“Oh I see… well.” She said starting to walk.

“um… miss?”

“yes?”

“Mr. Hiiragizawa is here.”

Tomoyo looked at her feeling a lump in her stomach as she heard this.

“He has been waiting for about an hour…” said the maid taking Tomoyo’s jacket.

She didn’t say anything and just rushed into the living room and before opening the door she stopped and took a deep breath.

“Calm down…” she said to herself and entered the room.

The moment she entered Eriol stood up.

“Hello Tomoyo.”

“Hi…”

Another long silence.

“um… what are you doing here?” she asked at last.

“oh well…” he cleared his throat. “I wanted to um…apologize…” he said looking at the floor.

Tomoyo just gave him a questioned look.

“for calling you so late…”

“Oh…” Tomoyo smiled.

“I didn’t wake you up right?”

“oh no… don’t worry I was… reading.” –aha… reading…- She thought to herself.

Another long silence.

“I have to go…” he said walking towards the entrance door followed by Tomoyo.

“But…” said Tomoyo trying to stop him.

“Well… it was nice seeing you.”

Tomoyo nodded with a smile then he left as she saw him disappear.

She closed the door and leaned against it, she then put a hand on her chest and noticed her heart was pounding.

“…all right now you, stop it!…” she said with a smile and ran upstairs to her room.

+++++++++++

“Jerk, jerk, jerk…bloody jerk…” Eriol was cursing himself and walking rapidly towards his home although he didn’t actually notice he wasn’t heading that way. “You are such and as-“

“Well, well…” he heard a familiar voice. “are we cranky today…”

Eriol looked up and saw Kaho Mizuki tarring at him.

“Hey! Hi… I thought you’d left.” He said surprised.

“Well I couldn’t leave without saying good bye but I guess I’m interrupting your daily inner… talk, or whatever you were just doing.” She smiled at him.

Eriol sighed deeply and shook his head.

“How can anyone be as stupid as I am?”

Mizuki rolled her eyes with a smile on her face.

“You might be surprised… What happened?”


That night was full moon. As we might guess Yuki had a little problem, he was about to turn into a winged being which would maybe scare his grandparents so he decided to get out of his home before anything happened. He thought about staying in his room but that night his grandparents were having visitors and they found it rude for him to stay in his room so he said he had to go and see Touya although he was the last person he wanted to see.
The full moon caught up with him and he had to stay in the top of a tree near a park just to wait for morning when he heard footsteps coming. He looked in the direction of the sound and saw Eriol walking lonely in the street, he was about to pass by the tree where he was when he decided to talk to him…

“You look like shit…” said Yue coming down the tree and stepping in front if him.

Eriol looked up at him with a frown.

“And since when do you use this type of picturesque language?” he asked sarcastically.

“It’s the only language I manage to speak whenever I’m near you, Clow.”

“You know what… I don’t want to discuss with you about this all over again. I’m sorry for everything that happened, all right? But that was the way things had to be.” He said passing him by.

“So… I guess the Daidoujii girl hasn’t solved anything yet... right?”

“What…” Eriol’s eyes widened when he heard that. He turned around but Yue had disappeared and he couldn’t feel his presence anymore. “What the hell was that?”

Yue started flying away and wandering around the city. He started thinking about the comment that had escaped from him in front of Eriol. He knew that if Eriol suspected anything he would easily find him and make him say whatever he knew…

“I have to do something” he said to himself. “but… wait a minute. Why would I care? It isn’t my problem, If I say anything it will be Daidoujii’s fault not mine. Whatever…”

But he found himself troubled with this.

“Why would I care if anything happened to her…”

He kept repeating inside his head though he knew the answer. Her sweetness and pure heart had touched him… he had grown fond of Tomoyo. He wanted to protect her… he knew she had risked her life many times for Sakura and knew she was a wonderful person… he did care for her… or at least he didn’t want her to get any harm…

“Stupid human feelings…” he said as he passed flying the Tokyo tower.


Kakero returned a few days earlier and he invited Tomoyo for lunch. They were both chatting about the wedding plans.

“Would you like pastries for the engagement dinner?” he asked smiling.

Tomoyo could notice that he was very excited about the wedding and she could notice a sparkle on his eyes when they were talking about their wedding.

“Tomoyo?”

“Huh?” she hadn’t pay attention to him.

“Are you all right?” he asked looking at her.

She sighed.

“Yeah…”

“You saw him while I wasn’t here right?”

Tomoyo looked at him, then she bit her lip.

“I did actually…”

“Oh I see…” he said standing up. “I better go…”

“What? Where are you going?” she asked reaching for his hand making him stop.

“I have to see my father.”

“But…”

“It’s getting late…” he said not looking at her.

Tomoyo looked at him.

“Are… you… jealous?” she said surprised at his reaction.

“I’ll see you later…”

He said and then left.

Tomoyo leaned her head in her hands and then she sighed.

“This… is just… perfect…”
