rlm@2: Secrets by Starlight Knight
rlm@2: 
rlm@2: 
rlm@2: 
rlm@2: 
rlm@2: 	It was a nice sunny day at the Penguin Park. Sakura and Tomoyo were
rlm@2: having a
rlm@2: small picnic there, seeing that it was a nice day. "Come on come on,
rlm@2: why all
rlm@2: this secrecy?" Sakura asked. "Patience Sakura, you'll know in due
rlm@2: time." Tomoyo
rlm@2: said. She giggled a little saying this. "I wanna know", Sakura said,
rlm@2: "all this
rlm@2: is working on my nerves." "Well, your not gonna until I am ready..."
rlm@2: Tomoyo
rlm@2: said.  Sakura just whined again, whatever it was she needed to know.
rlm@2: Tomoyo,
rlm@2: however, was nervous. She didn't know how to break it to her. Her
rlm@2: one deepest
rlm@2: darkest secret was unable to be said in words. She surprised herself
rlm@2: by even
rlm@2: asking her Angel in Disguise here for a picnic to tell her of her
rlm@2: secret.  She
rlm@2: began to shift uncomfortably, not knowing how to word what she was
rlm@2: going to say
rlm@2: to Sakura. "Are you ready yet?" Sakura asked impatiently. Tomoyo
rlm@2: steeled her
rlm@2: nerves. "What I wanted to say was that I...I..." was all she could
rlm@2: say. "Yeah,
rlm@2: you what?"  Sakura asked. "I...I...I..." Tomoyo stammered out again.
rlm@2: At this
rlm@2: point she just gave up trying to say it.
rlm@2: 
rlm@2: 	Sakura began to  grow even more impatient. "Awww, c'mon on Tomoyo",
rlm@2: she said
rlm@2: ,"Tell me... tell me... tell me!!" Tomoyo figeted with her fingers,
rlm@2: then she got
rlm@2: an idea. She'll just let her actions speak louder than her words.
rlm@2: She placed a
rlm@2: small, soft, lingering kiss on Sakura's lips. Sakura had been, more
rlm@2: or less,
rlm@2: surprised and shocked when this happened. Tomoyo leaned back to her
rlm@2: previous
rlm@2: position, pleasantly pleased with her bravery and the effect of the
rlm@2: kiss on
rlm@2: Sakura who was, in effect, in her own world. Although that world had
rlm@2: been shaken
rlm@2: quite strongly. Tomoyo mused herself with how things were going so
rlm@2: far, but now
rlm@2: the task of how to break her love out of the reverie she was in,
rlm@2: though she
rlm@2: wasn't complaining about the small smile that did however grace
rlm@2: Sakura's cute
rlm@2: little lips. "Sakura?" Tomoyo said. "Hoe?" Sakura said snapping out
rlm@2: of her dream
rlm@2: state. "Daijobu desu?" Tomoyo asked. "H-hai..." Sakura stammered.
rlm@2: Now that she
rlm@2: had her senses back she was quite confused. "Ne, Tomoyo-chan, what
rlm@2: just
rlm@2: happened?" She asked. "Well, I showed you what I had to say to you
rlm@2: instead of
rlm@2: actually saying it." Tomoyo replied. Sakura started to blush. "I had
rlm@2: no idea you
rlm@2: felt that strongly for me..." she said just above a whisper. "It is
rlm@2: kinda hard
rlm@2: to believe isn't it?" Tomoyo asked. Sakura didn't answer. She was
rlm@2: still somewhat
rlm@2: in her own world. Her mind would not let her forget this kiss, not
rlm@2: that she
rlm@2: wanted to anyway. "Uh...Tomoyo chan, I think I'll go home it's
rlm@2: getting pretty
rlm@2: late." Sakura said still staring off into space.
rlm@2: 
rlm@2: 	Tomoyo was about to protest but decided against it, there was
rlm@2: something
rlm@2: bothering her. And whatever it was it would,she would know soon
rlm@2: enough. Of that
rlm@2: she was certain. "Okay Sakura", she said, "call me later..." Sakura
rlm@2: just nodded
rlm@2: as she got up and left. 'I hope I didn't do anything wrong' Tomoyo
rlm@2: thought. When
rlm@2: Sakura got home, she wasn't her usual self. she didn't bother to say
rlm@2: hi or I'm
rlm@2: home. She didn't even notice it when Touya called her a kaijuu.
rlm@2: Everyone in the
rlm@2: house just looked on as she truged up the stairs with that spaced
rlm@2: out look on
rlm@2: her face. They looked upstairs, then to each other, then upstairs
rlm@2: again. "What's
rlm@2: up with her?" Touya asked. Sakura's father and Yukito shrugged their
rlm@2: shoulders.
rlm@2: "You got me..." they both answered. Sakura sat on her bed in a
rlm@2: spaced out state,
rlm@2: she had not fully known what happened at the park. Her mind kept
rlm@2: returning to
rlm@2: only one thing. The kiss, simply put, had taken over her mind. She
rlm@2: liked the
rlm@2: feeling her best frtend gave her. Yet it was wrong, she scolded
rlm@2: herself for
rlm@2: this. She was only supposed to like boys, or so she thought. All her
rlm@2: mixed mind
rlm@2: told her now was to go and kiss her friend again and again. And deep
rlm@2: down she
rlm@2: wanted to, that's what scared her the most. There was a slight
rlm@2: knocking at
rlm@2: Sakura's door as Touya was behind it. "Hey kaijuu", he started, "if
rlm@2: you're not
rlm@2: busy then there's a phone call from Tomoyo for you. Sakura's mood
rlm@2: visibly
rlm@2: brightened as she heard her best friend's name being called.
rlm@2: 
rlm@2: 	She jumped up from her bed and happily skipped out of her door.
rlm@2: "Iie, baka, I'm
rlm@2: never to busy to talk to Tomoyo-chan." She said walking down the
rlm@2: hall. "And
rlm@2: while I think about it...I'm not a kaijuu!" she added yelling. 'I
rlm@2: guess she's
rlm@2: back to normal' Touya thought. He shrugged and walked to his room
rlm@2: where Yukito
rlm@2: was was waiting. Sakura got to the phone that was in the hall and
rlm@2: picked it up.
rlm@2: "Moshi moshi?" she answered. "Hi Sakura, this is Tomoyo I was just
rlm@2: calling to
rlm@2: see if you were alright." Tomoyo said. "I'm fine", Sakura stated
rlm@2: cheerfully, "I
rlm@2: just had to think on a few things, or rather should I say one
rlm@2: thing." "And what
rlm@2: was that?" Tomoyo asked. "The kiss you gave me..." Sakura said in a
rlm@2: small
rlm@2: whisper. "Oh that...was just..." Tomoyo tried to explain. "Well,
rlm@2: whatever it
rlm@2: was, I need to talk to you. Meet me in the park in a few, okay?"
rlm@2: Sakura asked.
rlm@2: "Okay..." Tomoyo said. She hung up the phone,got her shoes on, and
rlm@2: told her
rlm@2: mother she was heading out to meet Sakura at the park again. "Don't
rlm@2: stay out to
rlm@2: late..." Sonomi said with a wink. Tomoyo just blushed and nodded.
rlm@2: She made her
rlm@2: way quickly to the park, where the meeting was to take place. She
rlm@2: walked past
rlm@2: the penguin slide to a swingset that Sakura was sitting on. Sakura
rlm@2: looked up as
rlm@2: she heard footsteps approach her. Tomoyo stood there with her
rlm@2: trademark smile,
rlm@2: though there was a bit of uncertainty in her eyes. Sakura promptly
rlm@2: got up and
rlm@2: walked the small distance to Tomoyo. 
rlm@2: 
rlm@2: 	They stood there looking at eachother for what seemed like an
rlm@2: eternity, until
rlm@2: Sakura brake the silence. "Kombanwa Tomoyo-chan" she said. Tomoyo
rlm@2: smiled and
rlm@2: bowed politely. "About the kiss, what was it for?" Sakura asked
rlm@2: getting straight
rlm@2: to the point. Tomoyo was shocked she couldn't speak at first, but
rlm@2: she found her
rlm@2: resolve and used it as her leverage. "To tell the truth, Sakura,
rlm@2: it's because
rlm@2: I...I...I..love you" she managed to say. "Hoe?!" Now it was Sakura's
rlm@2: turn to be
rlm@2: surpried. "Yes...you heard right", Tomoyo said, "I love you and I
rlm@2: have loved
rlm@2: ever since when we first met." Sakura just stood there trying her
rlm@2: best to take
rlm@2: this in. Even though it sounded unbelieveable, it would explain why
rlm@2: she was so
rlm@2: happy around her, the fact that she taped her so much, and a list of
rlm@2: other
rlm@2: things the eccentric girl did around her. Then she realized
rlm@2: something, didn't
rlm@2: she like Tomoyo being happy? Wasn't she happy when Tomoyo was happy?
rlm@2: Wasn't she
rlm@2: the one who befriended her to keep in this state of happiness? So
rlm@2: many questions
rlm@2: swam around in her head. Unfamiliar and newly found emotions mixed
rlm@2: with these
rlm@2: questions. But, as she asked the questions over and over to herself,
rlm@2: she could
rlm@2: always answer it with a definate yes. Suddenly, a new question
rlm@2: popped up. Did
rlm@2: she love Tomoyo? The answer, which was yes, was not surprising to
rlm@2: her. It was
rlm@2: there all along, she just had to search her heart for it. Tomoyo
rlm@2: suddenly
rlm@2: stopped in her speech and looked at the spaced out Sakura. "Sakura?"
rlm@2: she asked
rlm@2: snapping her out of her reverie. "Hai?" Sakura asked back giving her
rlm@2: the
rlm@2: brightest smile Tomoyo had ever seen. "Are you okay?" Tomoyo asked
rlm@2: with a bit of
rlm@2: uncertainty in her voice. 
rlm@2: 
rlm@2: 	Sakura just stepped foward, hugged her, and let out a contented
rlm@2: sigh of relief.
rlm@2: "Hai, I'm perfectly fine now." she stated just above a whisper.
rlm@2: Tomoyo hugged
rlm@2: her back. Sakura gave another sigh and turned her head slightly to
rlm@2: see Tomoyo
rlm@2: looking down at her. She smiled again just before moving in and
rlm@2: copturing
rlm@2: Tomoyo's lips with her own. Tomoyo started to Kiss her back without
rlm@2: hesitation.
rlm@2: They kissed for what seemed like an eternity, until they both broke
rlm@2: for air.
rlm@2: "Aishiteru, Kinomoto Sakura..." Tomoyo said. "Aishiteru, Daidouli
rlm@2: Tomoyo..."
rlm@2: Sakura answered back. "When do you think we should tell everybody?"
rlm@2: Tomoyo
rlm@2: asked. Sakura thought on it. "If they dont already know, I would say
rlm@2: tomorrow...sound good?" she asked. Tomoyo nodded happily and turned
rlm@2: around
rlm@2: headed for her house. "Until tomorrow then, my love." She said
rlm@2: walking away.
rlm@2: "Until then..." Sakura said as she turned and left toward her house.
rlm@2: Each left
rlm@2: with 'unique' images of each other as they walked home. Little did
rlm@2: they know of
rlm@2: the surprise that waited for them tommorrow...
rlm@2:

rlm@2: THE END
