Chapter 1
Hidden Feelings
Sakura Kinomoto sat at her desk deep in thought. She drew at random on a piece of paper when she was supposed to be doing her homework. Her thoughts, however, were not on the work she was supposed to be doing. She was thinking about a problem. A big problem. Sakura was in love. It was true. She was in love with the one person she couldn't have. Yue. Her quiet and aloof guardian had somehow stolen her heart. She looked outside, noticing the beautiful full moon that shone proudly in the sky. The moon. It was so like him. Beautiful, quiet and so far away and yet so close at the same time. Sakura sighed sadly, knowing that he could never return her feelings. He loved Clow Reed, not her. And it hurt so much. She still acted like the happy girl everyone expected her to be. But inside her heart was tearing into tiny irreparable pieces.
Sakura reached into her desk drawer and pulled out a photo album. She slowly flipped through the pictures. The Sakura cards had made this album for her so that she could never forget her journey to fulfill her destiny. Sakura stopped when she came to a picture of the Final Judgment. There on the Tokyo tower stood Yue. Beautiful as ever. A small teardrop fell from the girl's eyes. She loved him so much, but he would never know. And he surely would never care. He didn't care about her. Sakura quickly wiped away her tears and put the photo album back. She quickly ready for bed, hoping Kero wouldn't back from refrigerator raiding for a while.
Sakura woke up the next morning and went downstairs. She walked through the quiet home. Her father had passed away the previous year. Kero was still asleep. Touya and Yukito lived in a nearby apartment. The attended a nearby collage and went to school every morning with Sakura. They had it set up this way so that Yue could be close to Sakura incase she was in danger or needed his help. But nothing was going on. Sakura wished Eriol was in Japan. He could certainly cause some problems and make things a little more fun. She quickly got ready and met Yukito and Touya.
"Good morning!" She said in a cheery voice with a smile. She noticed the hint of silver in Yukito's eyes and felt her happy face falter. Touya's eyes narrowed as he saw a sad look briefly cross his sister's face. Maybe he would talk to her later.
"Good morning to you too Sakura." Yukito said. Inside Yue watched his mistress. Something was wrong. Her magic was weakened. He knew she had not used her magic for the past few days so there was no reason for it to be weakened. He quickly spoke to Yukito telling him that he wished to speak with Sakura for a few minutes. Yukito looked around, making sure that it was okay for Yue to transform. White wings wrapped around Yukito only to pull back and reveal Yue.
"What's going on?" Sakura asked. Yue looked at her with his usual emotionless eyes.
"Are you well, Mistress?" He asked looking her directly in the eye. She seemed a bit surprised at his question.
"Of course Yue. Why would think otherwise?" She replied.
"Your magic weak. Why is that so?" He said. Sakura thought quickly making up some excuse.
"I haven't been sleeping good lately, and I wasn't feeling good the past few days." Sakura replied, hoping he would believe her. She did stay up late but that was because she couldn't sleep. All she kept doing was thinking about Yue.
"Why are you having problems sleeping?" He asked. Sakura quickly thought up a new story.
"I have a big test coming up in school and I've been studying non-stop for it." She said with a small smile. Yue's eyes narrowed.
"You shouldn't hide behind lies Mistress." He said. Sakura face faltered again. She couldn't tell Yue what was really wrong.
"I don't know what you're talking about." She said and started to walk away. Her heart nearly stopped when he grabbed her wrist and turned her around to face him.
"What is troubling you?" He said firmly but gently. His eyes now showed a bit of concern. Sakura looked at the ground, refusing to meet his eyes.
"I don't want to talk about." She said. Yue took hold of her chin in his hand and lifted her head. He was surprised to see tears in her eyes. He quickly let go and straitened to his full height. Sakura now reached up to his chin so he didn't have to bend down as far to look at her properly.
"I did not mean to upset you Mistress." He said. Sakura shook her head and wiped her eyes.
"Don't worry about it. This is something I need to work out on my own." She said. Sakura quickly went to school to avoid Yue. She hurried home after school so that she didn't have to face him. She hurt inside. It took everything in her not to tell Yue how she really felt when he was questioning her. She hoped she could get over this fast.
Yeah I know this chapter is kinda short but they'll get longer. Anyway, review please and no flames.
