Tender Angel

Chapter Two:

Tomoyo stared unbelievingly at her old friend. She hadn't seen him since she was eleven. Damn. He had gotten to be pretty handsome in the eight years they had been apart. She realized that she was just about drooling and quickly looked away.

"What? No hug? Just Hiiragizawa-kun?" he replied grinning with his arms open wide.

"Oh sorry." She blushed and stood up to hug him quickly, then pulled away. He smiled as he looked her over and noticed how much she had matured. Her soft black hair now reached her waist. Her amethyst eyes still sparkled with the same curiosity as they had eight years ago. She had grown to the height of 5'6 and the dress she was wearing showed every curve of her body… he shook his head to get a hold of himself. You haven't seen her for eight years and here you are drooling over her the first day you see her again. He scolded himself, taking another look at her. Then again, she is absolutely beautiful. Who wouldn't fall for her?

"Hiiragizawa-kun?" she called, snapping him out of his trance.

"Oh, sorry." He apologized blushing lightly. She smiled at him and he felt like melting as her bright amethyst eyes burned into his. "So what are you doing here?" he asked her. She scowled a bit.

"I got invited by a top fashion designer here to come work with her, but the person who was supposed to pick me up isn't here." She explained. She glanced at him curiously. "How did you just happen to be here?" He chuckled.

"Well, I was just taking a walk near here and decided to come wander around in here." She stared at him for a minute, not quite sure about the truth of his story. He just calmly stared back. Actually, he had felt a familiar aura when the plane landed in England, and after a brief moment, recognized it as hers. So he merely altered things so that the person in charge of picking her up didn't show and he appeared to save her. Maybe it was because of his horrible break-up with Kaho. Or possibly it was because he realized he missed her. Or perhaps it was neither of those things.

"Well, since you have nowhere to go… um… well, would you like to come stay at my place? There's plenty of room." He sighed to himself. At least he had been able to get that sentence out without stumbling over it too much. Tomoyo's eyes brightened at his offer.

"Really? Your family won't mind, will they?" she asked. He shook his head.

"Nope. They like visitors." He grinned at her.

"Well, alright. Let me go find out where my bags are…" She looked helplessly around the airport. He laughed.

"Let me show you the way." He said leading her to the baggage claim place.

Eriol fumbled with his keys to find the one that went to the house. Tomoyo giggled as it took him five minutes to find the right one.

"Do you always have this problem?" she asked jokingly. He blushed.

"Sorry. Not usually. Aha!" he found the right key and just as he was about to unlock the door, it opened and his nine-year-old sister, Kaiya stood in the doorway.

"Hi Eriol!! You're back!" she pounced on him hugging him. Then she noticed Tomoyo. "Oooh! And he came home with a pretty girl! I bet she's your giiirlfriend!" She ran back into the house yelling about how Eriol had brought his girlfriend home.

"Kaiya!!!!!" Eriol called after her trying to stop her. Tomoyo had to try very hard to keep from cracking up as she followed Eriol into the house.

Whee… That was interesting. Ok, a little more background info that I completely neglected before. Well, R&R if ya want! See ya! GO DIAMOND BACKS!
