Our Secret : A Cardcaptor Sakura fanfic

"Onii-chan…" Sakura was cleaning up after dinner. Her big brother, Touya, was helping. Their father was up in his room, reviewing his lecture for the next day.

"Mm?" came his reply.

"Otou-san still doesn't know about it yet, right?" Sakura asked solemnly.

"About what?" Touya picked up what was left of the glasses. He seemed really sleepy, as always. He had given his power to Yue to keep him alive, now he was the one without magical powers.

"Y'know…about Kero-chan, about Yukito-san, about Yue, about the Clow Cards…about all the magic. We've been keeping it from him all this time and we didn't even tell him about it. He doesn't even know the cause of your sleepiness." Sakura pointed out while scrubbing the plate.

"Oh, that…" Touya let out a huge yawn and then he wiped his eyes. "Yeah, we've been keeping it from him. We should tell, now that its all over." He put the glasses beside Sakura. "Now that you mention it, he was the cause of all the trouble."

"No!" Sakura protested. "I was the one! Remember, I got the book from Dad's……." Sakura realized it now. She had found the Clow book in her father's basement library. She didn't even have any clue as to how her father got it.

"Should we tell him now? I think Dad's still awake." Sakura finished off the last of the glasses and put them on the rack. She then dried her hand with the towel.

"Nah, let's tell him tomorrow when we get home. If we're going to tell Dad, we need to explain everything. That means we're bring Yukito too."

"And Kero-chan!" Sakura added.

"Yeah...him too." Touya let out another yawn. "Let's say goodnight to Dad and get ready for bed."

"Yeah…" Sakura agreed with a sigh and a yawn as well. It was ten o' clock. About an hour past Sakura's curfew.

"Touya, Sakura," Fujitaka called from the top of the stairs. "You better go to sleep now. It's past your bedtime, Sakura. And Touya, you need your rest."

"Yes, Dad." The two siblings finished up the last of the cleaning and went up to their rooms. But before going upstairs, Sakura got a plate of cookies that she and her dad baked two days ago.

As soon as Touya hit his pillow, we began to snore lightly. Sakura turned on her lamp and put the plate on the desk. "Kero-chan! Cookies!" she called.

"YEAY! COOOOKIEZ!!" Kero-chan popped out of his drawer and sat beside the plate. He greedily grabbed a cookie and took a Cerberus-sized bite. "MMMM!! Oatmeal Choc chip! YUM! Huh? What's wrong Sakura?" Kero said, seeing Sakura's worried face.

"Onii-chan and I decided we would tell Dad about the Clow cards…I'm just worried what his reaction might be. We've been keeping this from him for more than 2 years now and he doesn't know!"

"It'll be okay, Sakura. Trust me!" Kero gobbled down his fifth cookie.

"Well, I hope you're right." Sakura said sullenly. "I'm gonna go take a bath."

"Okay then! I'll save you some cookies!" Kero 'promised'.

"Yeah, right. You're going to get impatient and gobble it up! I know you will!" Sakura gathered her sleeping clothes and towel then she headed for the bathroom.

THE NEXT DAY…

"Sakuuuuura, we're gonna be late! Hurry up!" Touya called from downstairs, putting on his school shoes.

"COMING!" Sakura called. Her alarm clock had run out of battery and she just woke up. "Kero-chan, get my socks, she said while struggling with her skirt.

Kero searched through the drawers and pulled out a pair.

"NOT THOSE, YOU IDIOT! THOSE AREN'T MY SCHOOL SOCKS! THOSE ARE PINK!" she shouted at the little guy.

"Soh-ree." Kero replied in an annoyed tone and got her white school socks.

Sakura gobbled up her breakfast in about ten seconds and rode on Touya's bike; too rushed to put on her skates.

On their way, they met Yukito and asked him to come over so they can tell their secret to Fujitaka. He said sure. Sakura ran the rest of the way to school.

In school, Sakura told Tomoyo about it.

"So you're finally going to tell you father. That's great! I'll come over, is it okay?" Tomoyo said.

"Yeah, sure! You'll be a great help." Sakura beamed. From her backpack, she pulled out her Clow cards. She could sense they were happy for Sakura and were encouraging her.

"Thanks." Then Sakura thought for a while. "How do I tell you Clow cards make magic? Which card should I use?"

"How about one that doesn't mess up the house? No offense to the cards. Pick a gentle one. One that doesn't do any harm." Tomoyo suggested with a kind smile on her face, as always.

"Maybe I'll use………..Mirror. She won't cause any trouble." Sakura picked up the Mirror card and put it on top of the deck.

Later, after school, when Sakura, Touya, Tomoyo, Yukito, and Fujitaka are now in the house…

"Would you like more tea, Dad?" Sakura offered.

"Sure, thanks, Sakura." Her father replied.

They were all sitting in the couches surrounding a coffee table in the living room.

"So, what's this you wanted to tell me?" Fujitaka said while sipping his tea. He was already changed into his house clothes and so were his children. Tomoyo and Yukito were still in uniform.

"Dad, we've been keeping a secret from you for…a very long time and we want to tell you now." Touya explained. Fujitaka's eyes widened at the fact but remained calm.

"What secret??" he said with a puzzled look.

"Dad, remember a book called 'The Clow' and you said you never could open it?" Sakura said; tea in hand and Clow cards with Tomoyo's.

"Yes. I can't seem to find them."

"Well…I have them here." Sakura got the Clow cards from Tomoyo and opened it.

Fujitaka stared at it in disbelief.

So, Sakura and friends are going to tell Fujitaka! What will his reaction be? Go to next chapter!!
