| 1 Disclaimer: I've been writing a lot recently, I know, and I AM sorry about | |
| 2 it. I just keep thinking about new ideas, so I have to get them down before | |
| 3 they fly away. Or rather, I forget them. I like how I worded it first, | |
| 4 though I always have the knowledge, the tiny white butterfly, somewhere deep | |
| 5 within my mind, my soul. Anyways, this is a small fluffy fanfiction I wrote | |
| 6 after I thought it up playing minesweeper. I almost always lose minesweeper, | |
| 7 but oh well. ^^; I'm sorry! I know I should be working on 'Miss Witch', but | |
| 8 I'm stuck on that one scene! Ugh. -_- So sad.anyways, warning: this | |
| 9 fanfiction contains yuri and (I always add this in case it happens. My | |
| 10 stories take their own form.) yaoi. If this offends you, please don't read. | |
| 11 Also, I don't own any copyrighted stuff. Thanks! ~.^ ~~Forever3330~~ ^.~ | |

| 16 | |
| 17 A young brunette, maybe fourteen or so, walked slowly home from school, | |
| 18 looking up at the gray sky as she walked. Soon she would reach the park. A | |
| 19 small smile formed on her lips, and she stopped, waiting, listening. | |
| 20 Soon enough she heard soft, quick footsteps behind her, and looked at the | |
| 21 girl who stood next to her, breathing in short, quick, gasps. | |
| 22 "Tomoyo-chan.wasn't your piano lesson going to run late today?" | |
| 23 The second, slightly shorter girl stood up straighter, lavender hair | |
| 24 rippling in small waves as she did so. She smiled warmly, the calm, gentle | |
| 25 smile Sakura loved best. "Hai. But my sensei was sick. I hope she gets well | |
| 26 soon." Tomoyo's eyes looked worried, but they brightened. "But now we can | |
| 27 walk home together, Sakura-chan. Perhaps we could have a sleepover at your | |
| 28 house. It's Friday, after all." | |
| 29 Sakura beamed at her friend, barely noticing the tiny raindrops beginning | |
| 30 to sprinkle down on them. "Of course. Father won't mind; he says you're like | |
| 31 family, the way you're over at our house so often. Onii-chan says you are | |
| 32 family." | |
| 33 Tomoyo slipped her slender hand into Sakura's. "It honors me greatly that | |
| 34 Kinomoto-san would think of me as such." | |
| 35 Sakura giggled as they began to walk, perfectly in step. "Tomoyo-chan, you' | |
| 36 re so polite!" | |
| 37 Tomoyo smiled. "And you have a quality better then that Sakura-chan; you're | |
| 38 special to many people, and you're the sunshine in my darkness." | |
| 39 Sakura looked thoughtful for a few moments, then blushed. "Tomoyo-chan.oh, | |
| 40 it's raining! I should have brought an umbrella like Father told me to!" | |
| 41 Tomoyo looked up. "I love the rain.each little raindrop is like a tiny | |
| 42 world, a tiny soul. Each so different and so the same.all born from the same | |
| 43 Mother." | |
| 44 Sakura smiled softly and squeezed her best friend's hand softly. "You see | |
| 45 everything so much differently from me, Tomoyo-chan. I could happily spend | |
| 46 years with you, and only learn a tiny bit of everything you see." | |
| 47 Tomoyo looked over at Sakura, and smiled sweetly. "Sakura-chan, it would | |
| 48 make me very happy to do so; Sakura-chan's happiness is my happiness." | |
| 49 Sakura sighed. "Tomoyo-chan.I love rainy days too." | |
| 50 "Why?" Tomoyo looked over at her friend as they came to a stop, at a | |
| 51 railing on the small bridge that passed over the lake by the King Penguin. | |
| 52 Sakura gently took her hand from Tomoyo's, and leaned against the railing, | |
| 53 emerald eyes clouding over. | |
| 54 "Sakura-chan?" Tomoyo asked softly. | |
| 55 Sakura didn't reply, and simply looked out over the lake, then closed her | |
| 56 eyes, pressing deep into her memory, her soul this perfect moment. The | |
| 57 breeze was soft, blowing against her skin, warmly. And small raindrops fell | |
| 58 down from the sky.Sakura knew she was soaked to the bone, but didn't care | |
| 59 much. Tomoyo stood silently beside her, waiting ever patiently. Always | |
| 60 patient. Waiting. | |
| 61 Tomoyo turned and leaned on the railing, shivering as the cold metal | |
| 62 touched her skin. The cold and wet didn't bother her much; she was here with | |
| 63 her beloved special person. She would be lost in perfect bliss forever if | |
| 64 only this moment could stretch into eternity; but for her, it already did. | |
| 65 Looking over at Sakura, she smiled her soft smile. Her loved ones flashed | |
| 66 one by one through her mind, but she knew that her love for Sakura wasn't | |
| 67 rivaled by any of them. Oh, she had the strongest love possible for her | |
| 68 mother, her friends; but her love for Sakura left them all far behind. It | |
| 69 grew even now, as it always grew, second by second, as time went on. She | |
| 70 could always go on, powered by that love. Even if she had to let Sakura go | |
| 71 someday, her love would keep her going on. As long as she had these | |
| 72 memories. | |
| 73 Sakura sighed softly, not stirring Tomoyo out of her dream-like state, but | |
| 74 simply going farther into her own. She knew most people took her for the | |
| 75 oblivious girl she showed them, and for the most part she was. But | |
| 76 sometimes, sometimes she saw in and through what everyone wanted her to see, | |
| 77 through every illusion, straight to the soul of what was hiding. Tomoyo was | |
| 78 hard to figure out, but there had been times when understanding gripped her | |
| 79 for a few precious seconds, and then fled. Tomoyo had once recited a poem to | |
| 80 her...well; Tomoyo recited many poems to her. But one line had caught her | |
| 81 attention yesterday. 'To see a world in a grain of sand'. Sakura smiled | |
| 82 gently. As a child she had been able to do just that. But now, she could see | |
| 83 things deeper, almost like she was seeing through a fraction of what Tomoyo' | |
| 84 s view was. Tomoyo was so secretive sometimes.Sakura worried about her. | |
| 85 Tomoyo breathed in the air around her, slipping further into her | |
| 86 seeming-trance. There were so many things she could say right now. But | |
| 87 nothing would accurately describe the moment, the feelings, emotions, | |
| 88 senses. Nothing would describe it. But she could hold a wisp of what this | |
| 89 moment had been within her, forever. The moment itself could never be truly | |
| 90 there again, without it happening. Oh, she could live on. But this full | |
| 91 blast of life within the moment wouldn't happen after Sakura left. Tomoyo | |
| 92 hoped the time when such a thing would happen was far into the future. | |
| 93 Syaoran had turned to her, before he left to China, after he had promised | |
| 94 to come back for her. A promise Sakura hadn't asked for, and wasn't sure he | |
| 95 would keep. He had asked her to go with him. And she had refused. Perhaps, | |
| 96 perhaps she should have gone. But then she would never have been here, in | |
| 97 this small glimpse of heaven. If Syaoran were in Tomoyo's place right now, | |
| 98 what would be different? She should be happier, right? That was to some | |
| 99 extent something Naoko had asked her. Strangely enough, she hadn't thought | |
| 100 much about it. She couldn't leave her family, her friends. She couldn't | |
| 101 leave. They would have been devastated, especially Tomoyo. Sakura winced at | |
| 102 the thought. Her best friend had always told her that Sakura's happiness was | |
| 103 her own happiness, but Sakura knew that Tomoyo seemed to need her. Tomoyo | |
| 104 always seemed so fragile in Sakura's eyes, even though Sakura knew Tomoyo | |
| 105 was stronger then her in some ways. But she still couldn't bring herself to | |
| 106 do it. To go away from the people she loved. It would be too much. Even | |
| 107 though she was sure Tomoyo would have insisted on her going if the pale | |
| 108 heiress had known. Tomoyo thought she was happy with Syaoran. So Tomoyo | |
| 109 naturally tried to do what she thought would make Sakura happy, tried to | |
| 110 make it all come to life. Sakura shook her head, smiling slightly at the | |
| 111 thought. | |
| 112 Tomoyo opened her eyes, realizing only now they were closed. She shifted | |
| 113 and looked over at Sakura in concern. Usually the energetic Cardmistress | |
| 114 couldn't stay still. | |
| 115 Sakura smiled, and opened her eyes as she turned to Tomoyo. She giggled as | |
| 116 she saw her friend's soaking lavender hair messy for once. Still, Tomoyo's | |
| 117 hair was always beautiful, even like this. | |
| 118 Tomoyo blinked, not quite understanding. Then her eyes noticed Sakura was | |
| 119 soaked, and quite messy, and knew she must look quite the same. Embarrassed, | |
| 120 she giggled softly, and the two girls' giggles became laughter. | |
| 121 Slowly, their laughter drifted off, and the rain became heavier, but | |
| 122 neither noticed it. "Tomoyo-chan.what were you thinking about?" | |
| 123 Tomoyo smiled gently. "My special person." | |
| 124 "That's what you always say when I ask you that." Sakura commented. | |
| 125 "Because it's always true." Tomoyo smiled warmly. | |
| 126 Sakura smiled, looking at her friend. | |
| 127 "Sakura-chan?" Tomoyo felt Sakura's forehead. "Are you okay?" | |
| 128 "I'm fine." Sakura replied. | |
| 129 "If you say so." Tomoyo still looked worried. | |
| 130 Sakura's smile became dreamy, and she leaned slightly forward, touching her | |
| 131 own lips Tomoyo's petal soft ones. Pulling back the brunette blushed | |
| 132 slightly, but smiled all the same, then turned back to look over the lake in | |
| 133 embarrassment. | |
| 134 Tomoyo stood there for a few moments, trying to figure out what had just | |
| 135 happened, and at the same time burning the memory into her heart, making | |
| 136 sure the memory would never leave her. That was the most happiness she had | |
| 137 ever felt, her soul combining with Sakura's creating a light brighter then | |
| 138 that Sakura alone could shine on her life. A hand rose unconsciously to her | |
| 139 lips, and she waited in the silence, looking over at Sakura. | |
| 140 Sakura finally turned back to her friend, and giggled. "Gomen ne, Tomoyo. I | |
| 141 didn't mean to surprise you." | |
| 142 Tomoyo blinked, and replied. "It's okay Sakura-chan." | |
| 143 "You wanted to know the reason I love rainy days?" Sakura asked, smiling at | |
| 144 Tomoyo's bewilderment. | |
| 145 "Hai, Sakura-chan." Tomoyo said, still slightly out of it. | |
| 146 "Because the stormy blue sky reminds me of your eyes." Sakura blushed. "And | |
| 147 it feels like my Tomoyo-chan is watching over me." | |
| 148 Tomoyo's mind kept going over the same words: 'my Tomoyo-chan'. "That | |
| 149 sounds like something I would say." She finally managed. | |
| 150 Sakura giggled nervously, putting one hand behind her head. "I know. | |
| 151 Because it is something you would say, Tomoyo. My love is the same as yours. | |
| 152 Gomen. It took me a little while to get used to it, or to say anything." | |
| 153 "What do you mean?" Tomoyo was confused and yet strangely understood it | |
| 154 all. | |
| 155 "I mean that I love you, Tomoyo. I sometimes understand the things you say. | |
| 156 Plus everyone hints at it if I ask the right questions. Sometimes I just don | |
| 157 't see things very clearly. Then, sometimes, I see it. Like in that poem you | |
| 158 recited the other day." | |
| 159 "What about Syaoran-kun?" Tomoyo asked. | |
| 160 Sakura looked thoughtful. "I think Kero-chan tried to explain it to me. I | |
| 161 knew I never loved him, really, after I thought about it, but I didn't know | |
| 162 how to explain it. He said it was the attraction to magic, like with | |
| 163 Yuki-san and Ms. Misuki. But I know that I love you, Tomoyo. I asked | |
| 164 Light-sama and Dark-sama about love, once. They're smart. I think they love | |
| 165 eachother, Tomoyo. Light-sama said something about being to halves apart and | |
| 166 together whole." | |
| 167 Tomoyo nodded slowly. "Sakura-chan." | |
| 168 Sakura looked a little worried. "Is it okay for me to love you? Or did I | |
| 169 get everything wrong?" | |
| 170 Tomoyo shook her head, silencing Sakura. "Would you be happy?" | |
| 171 "With you?" Sakura sighed in relief. "Hai. I already am, Tomoyo. I like | |
| 172 moments like these. I would be truly happy if I could spend the rest of my | |
| 173 life with you." | |
| 174 Tomoyo nodded, smiling. "My happiness is you happiness Sakura. Whatever | |
| 175 makes you happy. If it would make you happy to spend the rest of you life | |
| 176 with me I would be happier then I could say. Aishiteru." | |
| 177 Sakura smiled, almost bouncing, her usual energy back. "Really? That would | |
| 178 make me very happy, Tomoyo! Do you promise?" | |
| 179 Tomoyo smiled at the genki girl. Her genki girl. "Hai, Sakura. I promise." | |
| 180 Sakura smiled, and kissed Tomoyo again, in a feather-light, quick, kiss. | |
| 181 "Good! But we have to get home before my family gets worried. I'm already | |
| 182 behind schedule because I forgot my roller blades at school." | |
| 183 Tomoyo smiled dreamily. "Whatever you say, Sakura." Sakura slipped her hand | |
| 184 into Tomoyo's and Tomoyo was aware of them starting to walk. | |
| 185 "Are you going to be quiet the entire walk home?" Sakura asked after a few | |
| 186 moments, looking curiously over at the heiress. "Don't you have anything to | |
| 187 say? Usually you tell me about new costumes and stuff." | |
| 188 Tomoyo smiled warmly, her gentle smile reserved for those she loved, this | |
| 189 one for Sakura. "The only thing I have to say is that we should take more | |
| 190 walks in the rain. They're nice. Especially if you're going to stop at that | |
| 191 bridge each time and give me a kiss." | |
| 192 Sakura smiled, blushing a little. "We could make it a habit, if you want." | |
| 193 "That would make me very happy, Sakura." | |
| 194 "Then it'd make me happy too." Sakura squeezed her love's hand. | |
| 195 And so they walked, in the rain. | |
