"What do you mean you are in love with two people? I know in fact that the one you are in love with is Kanou right?" Megumi says still looking shocked from what I said.

"I don't know, at first I was in love with Kanou but now since Kazuma's come back I'm starting to have feelings for him." I state truthfully and she still gives me that are-you-serious look.

"Look Tomoyo I'm not trying to say that you are lying here, it's just well maybe you're fooling yourself into thinking that you still like Kazuma when you don't." Megumi says looking down at the ground as we walked.

"What do you mean?" I asked really confused now.

"I guess what I'm trying to say is that once Kazuma returned you are trying to hold on to those feelings you felt for him back then and ignore the ones you have for Kanou right now."

"That's ridiculous I mean so what you're saying is that I'm just ignoring all the real feelings I have for Kanou and using Kazuma to hide how I truly feel?" I asked Megumi not believing what she was saying to me.

In response Megumi just nods her head yes and by that time we are at my house.

"Look Tomoyo all I'm saying is that you should dig down deeper in yourself and decide who has your real and sincere feelings not the fake ones." Megumi says as I start to head in.

"Just so you know I'm rooting for Kanou." Megumi adds before I walk inside my house.

I plop on the couch and my brother comes out the kitchen and sits on the couch beside me. He turns and looks at me for a second. My step brother Takashi always knows when something is bugging me.

"What's bugging you sis?" Takashi asks me and I sigh. I just keep sighing I really didn't feel like explaining anything at this point.

"I don't want to talk about it Takashi, I'm just going to head to my room." I say and I get up and go upstairs to my room. I guess you can say that I am just frustrated, frustrated at the fact that I have to make a decision between two people I love.

Suddenly my conversation with Megumi from earlier pops up into my mind. She said that I had fake feelings for someone? If that's the case who is it that I have the fake feelings for and why doesn't it feel that way?

Suddently there is a knock at my door.

"Go away Takashi and leave me alone!" I say throwing a pillow at my bedroom door. My brain was starting to hurt from all this deep thinking so much.

"Fine I'm leaving I just came to tell you that there is this dude named Kazuma who is here to see you." He says and I can hear his foot steps as he goes down the stairs.

I then force myself to get up and go all the way downstairs to see Kazuma standing by our front door.

"Tomoyo I am so happy to see you." He says smiling and I can feel myself begin to blush remembering when he had said that he loved me.

"Hey-Kazuma." I forced myself to say.

"I wanted to tell you that my flight leaves for London tomorrow night. I need to know your decision before then." He says.

This is all so sudden well not really but still. It's bad enough I have to still decide between him and Kanou, now I have to decide if I'm going to leave or not.

"Um can I let you know tomorrow after school?" I asked Kazuma not wanting to make a decision right at the moment.

Kazuma just stares at my eyes for a good long while before he finally decides to speak again.

"Well ok, but Tomoyo you really have to make up your mind I can't wait for your answer forever." He says and then Kazuma winks at me and waves before leaving.

I started to think more about what Kazuma had said. He is right he can't wait on my answer forever. Its almost like Kanou and Kazuma can't wait for me to choose one of them forever. I have to decide.

Starting tomorrow I am going to make all my decisions.

When I arrived at school, I can feel my palms beginning to feel sweaty.

I took a deep breath before finally entering the doors into Seika High.

When I'm finally inside I am greeted by Megumi.

"Have you thought about what I said?" Megumi immediately asks me.

"Yeah actually I have quite a bit." I say truthfully.

"Good because now's your chance." she says and she shoves me forward.

I end up bumping into someones back. The person I bumped into turns around and I can now see that it is Kanou. Being subtle is not her thing I guess. She really is rooting for Kanou.

Kanou just stares at me. It feels like forever since we actually got a chance to talk alone together. Well besides yesterday.

"H...Hi." Kanou finally says breaking the silence and he looks away blushing.

"Hi." I say back and I can feel myself blush as well. The thoughts of Kanou saying that he didn't want another guy to take me away appeared in my mind.

"Hey is it true that you are planning on going to London with Kazuma?" Kanou says surprisingly without stuttering.

"I actually haven't decided yet." I say looking at the ground.

More silence passes before we both start speaking again.

"Tomoyo do you like Kazuma?" Kanou asks and I can see he is now staring deeply into my eyes now.

"W-What no, we are just friends. I mean I don't know I-"

"I see." Kanou says and he begins to walk away. Did I upset him?

"Kanou wait!" I said grabbing him by his sleeve but he forces his sleeve out of my grip.

"Just stop Tomoyo okay! Enough leading people on already! I want nothing to do with you anymore!" He says as he continues to walk away.

I was afraid this might happen. Why didn't I just make a decision? Maybe none of this would of happened.

The rest of school seem to go by fast partly because all my focus was on Kanou.

Why do I care so much if he is mad at me? What did he mean by leading people on? Why does he care if I like Kazuma or not?

And most off all why do I care about all these questions anyway?

Oh I see this must of been what Megumi was talking about. My real and fake feelings. Sure I have thought about Kazuma at times but I never been over concerned about him like I do with Kanou.

That's it! The one I truly love is Kanou always has been and always will be.

That's it! I'm going to tell Kanou how I feel right now. After my last class was over I began to walk down the halls until I spotted him.

Right when I was about to approach him Kazuma steps in my way.

"Kazuma, this isn't a good time." I try and explain but he doesn't move out the way.

"Tomoyo I need to know if you are going to London with me." He says looking in my eyes.

I look at his beautiful brown and silky golden hair. Sure all of that's great but not the great I want.

"No Kazuma I am not going to London with you." I say proudly and Kazuma looks like I just killed someone or something.

I then keep walking but I am sad when I realize Kanou isn't there anymore.

I then see Misaki further down the hallway so I ran up to her.

"Misaki have you seen Kanou?" I questioned.

"Actually I have but I'm afraid he already left with Yukimura." Misaki says and I thank her before I finally deciding to give up and head home.

When I am finally at home I noticed Takashi sitting in a chair and staring at a wall.

"Takashi is everything o-" Before I can finish my sentence there is a knock at our door.

Takashi looked in no state to get the door so I went and opened it and immediately my eyes grew wide.

"M-Mom." Or should I say step mom. My mother stares at me with her big beady brown eyes that can pierce anyone in a matter of seconds.

"Hello Tomoyo dear, aren't you going to invite your dear step mom in?" She asks so I invite her in.

She then looks around the house with a look of disgust. She then takes out a wipe and wipes her chair before sitting down.

"It's just as I thought." She says. There is even more silence before she finally speaks again.

"Tomorrow." She says looking around again.I stared at her puzzled. What is she talking about?

"Um...Mom what do you mean?" I asked still really confused.

"Takashi hasn't told you?" She said glaring at Takashi and I respond with a no.

"I knew he'd chicken out," She said mentally face palming herself. "Look Tomoyo I want you and Takashi to come back home with me." She explains and I couldn't believe what my ears were hearing.

"No, but why? I don't want to!" I say all at once.

"No buts it's not suitable for you two to stay here on your own after your father has passed away." She says to me with a cold look in her eyes.

I tried to ignore the fact she just confirmed that my dad was dead.

"When will we be leaving?" I asked not feeling like arguing anymore.

"Tomorrow afternoon. I'll pick you two up tomorrow morning because you will not be going to school." She says.

So basically today was my last day at Seika High and what's worse is I didn't tell Kanou how I felt and I probably never will.

"This isn't fair!" I yell and I run upstairs and slam my bedroom door shut.

I then take out my cellphone. I have to let everyone know what is going on.

When I come down to my last few friends to call I began to sob.

The next person I had to call just happens to be my best friend Megumi.

I dialed her number and once I heard her voice say hello I busted into another big sob.

"Woah Tomoyo what happened?" she said immediately concerned.

When I finally could stop sobbing I told her everything.

I told her about me moving, my mom returning and even about the whole Kazuma and Kanou mix up.

"Tomoyo I'm coming over right now!" Megumi declared.

"No it's no use Megumi, there is no convincing my mom." I say over the phone.

"Tomoyo..." Megumi states with her voice trailing.

"I'm fine Megumi really." I say trying my best to smile over the phone.

"Well have you talked to Kanou about this yet?" Megumi states.

"Actually no I haven't yet, considering the circumstances right now I don't think I will tell him."

"Circumstances? Tomoyo wha-"

"I got to go Megumi thank you for being my bestfriend." I say and I hang up.

Who knew that leaving all these people would be so hard? Why does it have to be this way?

The next morning Takashi and I had all our bags packed. Even though this house was extra old and broken down I'd be lying if I said I wouldn't miss it at all.

Takashi and I hung our heads low. Ae both didn't wanna move away, we wanted to stay here where we belong and are loved.

"Are you guys ready to go?" Our mom states and we both just stare at her with sad blank expressions.

"Oh come on guys moving won't be so bad. You will make plenty of new friends in America." She says excited like.

"I don't want to make new friends! I want the friends I have now. What's so wrong with that?" I yell and Takashi looks at me surprised by my outburst.

"Now is that anyway to speak to your mother?" She scolds.

"I don't want to leave and I'm not going to!" I dared to yell back at her.

"You are coming to America and that's final!" My mother yells and she grabs my wrist tightly to the point where it hurt and forcefully shoved me out the door.

"Hey mom don't treat Tomoyo so roughly!" Takashi yells back.

"I expected more from you Takashi. I can see that your bone headed step sister poisoned your head too." She says glaring at him before she shoves me in the car.

***Megumi***P.O.V

By now I'm pretty sure everyone's heard the news about Tomoyo moving away.

At least almost everyone knew. I had a feeling that Tomoyo never did tell Kanou that she was moving away for good.

Right when I see him in the halls I run up to him and greet him.

"Hey Kanou, did you by any chance hear about Tomoyo?" I asked.

"No." He replied instantly.

"Well Kanou, I'm just going to lay it on you and let you she is moving away for good. I need your help as well as our friends help to stop are all heading to the airport right now." I say and he looks unfazed.

"So? What good will us showing up do?" He replied in an uncaring tone.

"Hey we should at least help her out because she is our friend!" I say getting kind of irritated with his attitude towards this.

"Whatever." Kanou states bluntly.

"How could you say whatever! Are you even serious right now? You know you are in love with Tomoyo and we do as well! Why are you acting this way?" I practically yell ignoring all the stares we got.

"I don't care about that girl anymore." Kanou states in the most cold voice I ever heard before he walks away.

I froze still stuck on the words he just said.

I don't care about that girl anymore.

Since when did Tomoyo become that girl to Kanou? Even so I can now see why Tomoyo didn't want to tell him about her leaving because she probably knew he would respond this way.

Only question is why? Feelings of love don't just disappear like that overnight. Something really bad must of happened between them.

"Hey Megumi are you coming?" I hear Misaki say from a distance.

"Coming!" I state. Right now I didn't have time to think about Kanou even if it's probably the person she needs to see most.

***Tomoyo***P.O.V

When we finally arrived at the airport we sat down as we waited for our plane.

About a couple of minutes later sitting there I noticed a girl with blond curly locks coming in our direction.

That can't be Megumi, she is at school right now. I decided to ignore the girl and focus my attention on something else.

"Hey how rude is it for you to ignore your own bestfriend!"

I finally look up and see Megumi standing there smiling at me.

I then don't hesitate to wrap her in the biggest most tightest hug she can imagine.

"Oh and I hope you don't mind I brought a few friends to try and stop you from leaving as well. Think of this as me returning the favor from last time." She says.

I then see Misaki, Takumi, Yukimura,Izumi,Mizuki,Genji and Eito all standing in front of me.

When did I ever make such wonderful friends as these guys. I then begin to feel tears pouring down my eyes. I'm pretty sure they were rolling down Takashi's too.

"Sorry I tried to get Kanou to come but he just wouldn't." Megumi says looking down.

"That's okay at least you tried, besides I knew it would turn out that way anyway." I said smiling at her.

Megumi then directs her attention to my mom. She then goes up to her and bows her head down.

"Please, I beg of you, don't send Tomoyo and Takashi away!" she pleads. My mother then makes a face and I immediately knew what that meant.

"Sorry but a couple of kids like you won't make me change my mind." My mom states strictly.

"Ma'am please-" I put my hand on Megumi's shoulder.

"Megumi that's enough. It's okay you tried your best. There is nothing you can do." I say to her forcing a smile.

She then grabs me into the tightest hug.

"But-but you."

"No one said this had to be a goodbye forever. I promise I'll come visit whenever I can." I say smiling. She then wipes the tears out of her eyes and smiles at me.

"Goodbye Tomoyo." Megumi says with a smile.

"Bye bye...Megumi, everyone." I say waving back before we all begin to walk towards our plane. I learned so much from being at Seika High.

I met Misaki and Takumi who make a cute couple even if Misaki is a bit scary. There was also the fun time I spent with the music club. I also wanted to know how Izumi's romance with Yukimura would unfold. I even had the best bestfriend I ever could've asked for Megumi and most of all, my one true love...Kanou.

I was going to miss this...

"It's time to go Tomoyo." My mom says noticing my expression. I continued walking. Yep, I was going to miss this and them. I don't want to leave...I don't want to say goodbye. Not yet...please.

"Tomoyo!" I hear someone yell and it doesn't sound like Megumi's voice so I turn around.

My eyes grow wide and my cheeks begin to turn red.

There stands Kanou with a serious look in his eyes. He just stands there staring at me.

He then begins to walk up to me still locking eyes with mine. I stood there still frozen.

"Tomoyo I'm sorry I didn't come sooner. I'm sorry for all the stupid things I did. I-" Kanou says and I cut him off.

"That's okay Kanou, I get it." I say with a smile.

"No you don't get it..." Kanou says then he looks in the other direction. His cheeks turn a deep red.

He then puts both his hands on my shoulders and forces his eyes to stare in mine.

"I love you Tomoyo." He says staring at me with his soft violet eyes even though his cheeks were all red.

This time I turn the deepest darkest red I could ever be.

"Well that's great and all but I believe we have a plane to catch." My mom interrupts and grabs my wrist forcefully as we head to the plane.

Why aren't I stopping my mother. Why don't I just go run over to Kanou?

Before I knew it I was standing in front of my plane.

***Kanou***P.O.V

Why isn't Tomoyo stopping her mother? Why isn't she coming back?

I then hung my head low. I knew what that meant. Tomoyo must have rejected me.

Even so I know I can never love another girl the way I love Tomoyo ever.

Now I would never see Tomoyo again.

***Tomoyo***P.O.V

"Hey miss are you boarding the plane?" A person in line behind me says. I must of zoned out thinking about Kanou.

I loved Kanou and now I know that he loves me. What was I even doing here right now?

"As a matter of fact, no I'm not boarding this plane." I say and I step out of line.

"Tomoyo! What are you doing get back in line this instant!" My mother scolds.

"No." I say bluntly. She shoots me another look but I wasn't intimidated by it this time.

"Come on Takashi lets go back to our friends." I say and he smiles and steps out of line too.

"You two get back here!" My mother yells and before she could step out of the line she is being shoved onto the plane.

I guess we'll have to deal with her when she flies all the way back. Also get our luggage later.

Takashi and I run back in and to my advantage my friends are still standing there about to leave.

I then spot Kanou and run up to him. When he turns around I don't give him time to talk instead I go way on my tippy toes and press my lips forcefully onto his.

He looks shocked at first but then he finally closes his eyes so I then close mine.

When we finally stop I can see everyone looking at us smiling.

Megumi is even cheering us on which makes us both blush harder.

"I love you too." I finally say to Kanou and he makes a gentle smile.

I smile back.

"Come on lets go." He says and as we leave the airport. We both hold each others hand. I squeeze his hand extra tight as he squeezes mine.

Finally we said how we feel and we can both be together.

As we finally make it out the airport still holding hands in my mind I think

What a strange boy.

Actually now I think about it, it's more like...

What strange people are we both?

~Fin~
