happiness_ahead Pairing: Eriol Hiiragizawa & Tomoyo Daidouji
Rating: G
Summary: She just wanted Sonomi to get off her back. And he was just a guy who was there at the wrong place and the wrong time.
Warning: Alternate Universe. OOC-ness.

She must have been a tissue (or something even worse) in her past life because the gods are definitely making amends for it right now.
She couldn’t believe her luck. The kind good sir agreed to go with her plan. At first, it looked as if he was going to argue but he must’ve changed his mind. He even offered to get her luggage and carry it afterwards (how sweet). And now she’s got a boyfriend for an hour.
“So basically I’d just introduce myself and regale her with the lie you told me about how we got together?”
“Yes, but be careful. Remember to look straight in her eyes, all right?” she reminded as they walked together, hand in hand. “My mother has the senses of a bloodhound. She can smell a lie even from a distance.”
He arched a delicate brow as he lifted their entwined fingers. “So that’s what this is for.”
She nodded thoughtfully. “Don’t worry. After she sees you, I’d make up an excuse about jetlag or something so you can run off.”
“I think not,” he retorted, pulling her towards him when somebody would collide into her. “You’re not really a convincing liar.”
Tomoyo was annoyed. She shot him peeved glare.
How dare he? He doesn’t even know her and there he goes judging her inexperience in lying. But wait a minute. Wasn’t that meant as a compliment? Hmm.
“Hey, bug off. You still don’t know me, Mister.”
Not the type for confrontations like the beta male he was, he only shrugged in nonchalance.
“Oh my god.” She halted, noticing the familiar figure of her mother among the crowd. He stopped too and glanced at the person she was looking at.
She squeezed his hand as she fought her jittery nerves. “If we survive through this, remind me to thank you.”
