Rating: PG. It's usually pretty tame but...
Couples: Yaoi and yuri. Firstly SakuraxSyaoran then we get into the more interesting pairings. EriolxSyaoran, TomoyoxSakura and a bit of TouyaxYukito thrown in as well.. They're my favourite couples, so that's what in here! ^.^
Disclaimer: Yeah they don't belong to me. I don't own anything. They belong to Kodansha and Clamp.
Notes: This is the first part of my story. ^.^ Please forgive me if I've really screwed anything up story line wise. Us Australian's haven't seen the entire Card Captor Sakura series and we got the terrible dub so...I'm really trying my best.
This part deals with Tomoyo and her thoughts, enjoy!
The Start of Everything Beautiful
Part 1/6
Tomoyo Daidouji
I'd tried to sound excited when Sakura told me. I don't think she noticed how insincere I was being. She was too happy and excited herself.
But how could I be happy when Sakura told me her and Syaoran were seeing each other? Not genuinely happy anyhow.
I tried my best, really. Too see Sakura happy is all I want. She wouldn't be happy if I told her. Told her that I loved her.
I don't really know how long I can handle it anymore. It's only been a week, but seeing Sakura with Syaoran made me queasy. I knew how much Li-kun cared about her and how happy he made her. But I cared so much for Sakura. I wanted to be the one to make her happy.
I put the receiver down again with a sigh. I didn't have many ideas but I needed to talk to someone! There were only two people I knew who knew what it was like. One of them was Yukito.
I'd decided against going to the Kinomoto's for obvious reasons. Sakura wouldn't be too happy with me if I showed up at her house then spoke with Yukito instead of her.
But ringing there wasn't a problem. I could fake a problem easily.
Knowing the Kinomoto family well, told me that Yukito would be there visiting Touya. I hadn't been wrong either.
Thankfully enough, Touya had answered the phone, not Sakura. I asked him if I could speak with Yukito. I'm not sure if he was shocked or even a little surprised, but he didn't ask, just handed the phone over to his boyfriend.
Yukito had more of a reaction than Touya, immediately asking what was wrong. It was all I could do from bursting into tears right then and there. I managed to control myself though, politely asking him over for the afternoon, and if he could 'forget' to mention it to Sakura.
I knew he was even more surprised then, but he agreed. I'd thanked him and hung up quickly before he had a chance to ask anything else. I'd explain everything when he got here.
The doorbell rang and I opened it. Yukito smiled at me and pushed a brown paper bag into my hands.
"It's chocolate," he smiled and I looked at him.
"I thought you might like some. I know what it's like."
"How did you--" I started but he just smiled at me again and patted my head.
I blinked a couple times before showing him in, shutting the door behind us.
"We can go upstairs. I have some tea and cake, if you'd like some."
Yukito nodded and it was my turn to smile. I knew he'd be hungry by the time he got here.
The trip upstairs was quiet. Awfully quiet. The silence carried onto my room, the only conversation was his gratitude for the tea and cake.
It was silent for a couple more minutes as Yukito ate happily. I glanced up at him then looked away.
"How did you know?" I asked. Had I been that obvious?
"I know the symptoms," Yukito smiled and looked at the chocolate he'd brought, "That, helped me a lot."
I smiled. Yukito was simply adorable sometimes. No wonder Touya loved him so much. But if Yukito knew, then, what if--
"Does Sakura--"
"No. She doesn't know Tomoyo. Your safe."
I breathed a sigh of relief then looked up at him again.
"What do I do?"
Yukito set down his cup and saucer along with his plate. He smiled at me again and put his hand on mine.
"Tell her."
My eyes most likely reflected my immediate thought because he smiled and laughed quietly before pulling back.
"She might feel the same way."
"But--Syaoran?"
"I'm not sure about him Tomoyo. Sakura might be with him because she doesn't think you feel like that about -her-. The only way your going to be able to find out is if you tell her how you feel."
I sighed more audibly than I would've liked. I knew that was the end of the conversation. Or the impending end. There wasn't much more help Yukito could offer. What was I to do now? I couldn't tell Sakura. I just couldn't. What if she didn't feel the same about me? She truly did want to be with Syaoran? That might ruin our friendship as well. I just couldn't let that happen. It would make Sakura unhappy.
A couple more minutes passed before Yukito stood up, "Thank you for the tea Tomoyo. I wish I could help more.."
"Oh no, thank you Yukito. I shouldn't be bothering you with my problems."
"That's all right Tomoyo. I don't mind at all. Tell me what happens all right?"
I nodded and he smiled before leaving, insisting he could find the way out himself.
I stood up and set my cup on the desk, picking up a piece of paper and my pen. There was only one other person I could turn to now, and if he knew about the news, he'd be hurting as much as I was. Eriol.
The next week was like hell on earth. I loved to see Sakura happy, but it was slowly chipping away at my own heart. I secluded myself away. Away from them.
I don't even know if she notices. I don't think she does.
Today will be like every other day. Today's Friday, that's all.
I walked into my class, early like usual. Our teacher wasn't there yet, so I took my seat and stared out the window. I had a birds eye view of her skating in every morning.
The sakura trees were just starting to bloom again this time of year. Sakura always looked beautiful surrounded by her namesake. Today was no different.
She skated into the yard, waving to Rika and Chiharu as she passed them.
When I first met Sakura, I thought I nearly impossible for one person to have so much energy. But each day she entered the school at the same pace, a smile across her delicate face, sunlight bouncing off her hair softly.
I moved over to the window to see her better, but only saw Syaoran stop her and greet her warmly. My heart bounced as I saw her excited smile. To see him. Him. Syaoran Li. Not Tomoyo Daidouji.
"Morning Tomoyo!" Sakura said and bounced into the room, Syaoran tagging behind her, their hands clasped together.
"Good morning D--Tomoyo-san," Syaoran greeted me. I'm almost certain he see's me as a rival now. He must know that I want Sakura to be with me. Or he's just naturally paranoid of anyone.
"Good morning Sakura, Syaoran. How are you both?" I asked sweetly, all smiles.
"Fine thanks Tomoyo!" Sakura smiled and took her seat.
Syaoran stared at me then took the seat behind Sakura as he always did.
Our teacher arrived and I could lose myself in the lesson. For now.
