Chapter six. "Love is either in you heart or on it's way."

Frank Sinatra.

"I'm home!" Fujitaka said to an empty house. "Hello? Anyone?"

"In the backyard!" Came his son's voice. He would hear laughter and many voices, but there was a presence he didn't recognize. In the backyard he found the dining table with Touya, Yukito, Sakura, Syaoran, Tomoyo and

"Nadeshiko?" One thing he appreciated very much from his powers was the fact to be able to see his beloved.

"Welcome back dear." Wait a minute. The presence is Nadeshiko's. Why can I feel his presence? And where are her wings She looks human.

"I I What's going on?

"You should probably sit."

Sakura with help of everyone told his father the events of the past days and how in her need to save herself she asked The Hope to "bring her salvation." That salvation being her mother, who trying to guard her from the mad magic of the Nakamura twins, transformed in the Star Guardian and brought Sakura a new card, The Love.

"So you're like Yue and Keroberos."

"That's right."

"What happened to these twins?"

"Hoshi, the sick one, was connected to me, draining me and he didn't; survive the magic outburst. His mind sort of burned."

"And Yue took care of Yuzuki." Touya explained.

"Took care?" his father asked.

"Killed him." The lion answered flatly.

"He says he wouldn't have left living the one to have made him a puppet." Yukito said. But you actually did ti out of revenge for what he did to Kero, right? And Sakura? He thought.

Hmpfh.

Yukito giggled. The moon guardian was as stoic as ever.

The family had dinner and afterwards went to their own business. Sakura, Tomoyo, Syaoran and Kero went for ice cream, Fujitaka and Nadeshiko to their bedroom. And Touya and Yukito stayed washing the dishes.

"Yuki."

"Mmm?"

"I'll like to speak to Yue. Is he around?"

No

"Yes."

You are impossible.

"Yue, please?" Touya asked sweetly.

Oh no! Do not smile, do not sm- Mmphf. He did.

Yukito transformed to his other self, leaving Yue in the kitchen.

That damn smile.

I can't resist it either. He's so cute when he smiles.

Ugh.

"What?"

"Hello Yue nice to se you too." Touya teased. Yue raised one eyebrow. "We should talk about what happened the other night."

"I was not myself. I was a puppet to Yuzuki."

"Well the thing is that I asked Sakura and she reckons that you weren't possessed exactly. He just played with your mmm sense of restrain, making you lustful." Touya tried to contain his smile but one looked at Yue and he was laughing.

"Well, there you have it. It was his lust. Not mine." Touya stopped laughing abruptly.

Liar.

Shut up!

"No. It wasn't his. It was yours, without your usual restrain. But let's put thing straight. Do you like me?"

"No."

"You see, that would be a lot mere convincing if you watch me in the eye when answering." And blushing. Touya took hold of Yue's face and forced him to looked him the eyes. Yue drowned in them.

"Do you like me?"

"No."

There was a long silence until the angel said,

"I love you."

Epilogue.

"Life. What is it but a dream."

Lewis Carroll.

Everyone says their family is weird, but no family would be as weird as this one. The moment Touya and Yukito came through the door, they had to duck to avoid a plate. And a sight to the kitchen proved to convince the pair that they have stumbled upon the Mad Hatter's tea party.

Sakura and her mother were cooking while a stuffed animal peck on everything.

"Kero-chan!"

"Did you like it?" Nadeshiko asked.

"Delicious!" the sun guardian lied.

"Kaiiju, you're cooking? Come on Yuki we should get some medicines before the pharmacy close."

"Onnichan!" Sakura yelled. "Hello Yukito-chan, Merry Christmas!"

"Merry Christmas to you too, Sakra-chan! Where do I put the presents?"

"Under the tree is alright!"

Yue saw his brother taking bites of everything and decided it was best if they got some medicines. Keroberos have never been very good with his hygiene.

Hours and much madness later the family sat down to eat and talk. After all, it had been many months since they last saw each other. Sakura had grown a lot and now she was a beautiful young woman of almost 15. To Touya's dislike she still was going out with the brat, who was reaching Touya's height now. He and Yukito were in the last semesters of college. Touya was to become and archeologist and Yukito an advocate. He always teased them saying that now they would be "real judges." Truth be told, Yue liked the classes very much, but it was not like he was saying that to Touya ever. And it was not only the classes he enjoyed, the moon guardian wouldn't remember a time when he was happier than now, With Clow there was always some uncertain about his feelings. He felt Clow loved him but not always or not completely. With Touya he felt completely love, always. He never imagines that his other self's friend would became their lover.
