Chapter Fourteen is mainly about Freya *laugh* should be good for a small change. Now, I was actually half asleep (AGAIN) and complaining about wanting a sombrero for some crazy reason to one of my best friends, so I hope you enjoy it. HAHA.
Chapter Fourteen: The New Guard
The girls spent most of the night teasing each other and joking around, mostly about boys. Most of the teasing landed on Freya. There was a knock at the door followed by Yuui's voice. "Lady Sakura?" "Come in!" Sakura said cheerfully, looking at Freya out the corner of her eyes. Freya froze. Before the door opened, she looked to see if there was somewhere she could hide. Her eyes darted to Sakura's wardrobe, but Tomoyo grabbed her before she could move. "Our main objective is to keep Lady Sakura safe you idiot!" Tomoyo glared at her. Freya looked like a little kitten that was being told off for doing something naughty. "What did she try to do?" Yuui asked. He looked entertained. "She tried to hide in my wardrobe before you walked in." Sakura answered. Freya flinched and looked at Yuui who raised an eyebrow. "If you stop hiding from me I might stop chasing you." He just said it in front of everyone. Sakura stared at Freya, while Chii was trying to contain her laughter. "Well now Freya, you didn't tell me about this…" Sakura smiled. "Uh, well…" Freya looked guilty. "Well, while you two talk things out, I'm going to have a shower. Kanna could you please deliver this notice to Syaoran please? Tomoyo will keep watch outside." Sakura got up and handed Kanna a small square envelope.
She walked over to her private bathroom and closed the door, leaving the two alone. Freya was a little embarrassed. "You're always so straight forward…" She whispered. Yuui put his arms around her slender body. "It's only with you though." He said. Freya felt the warmth of his body around her. "You're not afraid to show it off in front of anyone are you?" Freya wrapped her arms around him. "Why should I be? I'm only telling others to piss off in my own way." Freya suddenly had a whole new insight.
It was his way of telling everyone to back off, not just guys, and he wasn't just being a show off like she thought. "Will you say yes now?" Freya snapped back to reality. "Hmm?"
"Freya, won't you marry me?" Yuui whispered in her ear. "…Yes…" Freya felt herself blush, but at the same time she felt really happy.
As she allowed the hot water to run over her skin, Sakura's thoughts ran wild. She didn't know what to do, and her memory wasn't complete. She remembered when she was ill-what was the connection between her and her sister exactly? Suddenly her vision went blurry, and she felt her stomach clench painfully. She vomited on the shower floor, the water washing the sick down the drain. She regained herself and washed herself off, ignoring the throbbing in her throat and fangs, the pain she felt in her head.
Once she was clean, Sakura walked out in her towel, and smiled. "Did you work things out?" She asked. Yuui stood up from the edge of the bed. "Thankyou Lady Sakura for the privacy, I'll leave the room to let you change." Yuui walked out of the bedroom quietly. "Freya, what should I wear today?" Sakura asked while opening her wardrobe and stepping back to examine it. "You could wear your white one with long sleeves." Freya suggested pointing to the lighter colours at the other end of Sakura's wardrobe. "Ok then!" Sakura pulled the dress out and put it on the bed. She dried herself off properly and found her white bra and underwear and put them on, then put the dress on. The dress was silk, and the sleeves were translucent. On the front it had gold embroidery over the chest area in the shape of a butterfly. It was a nice dress for wearing on cool days. "Can you tie the ribbon at the back for me Freya?" Sakura asked. "Of course." Freya tied it in a neat bow. "Yuui and I are engaged now…" Freya murmured.
Sakura span on her heals and squeezed Freya tightly. "I'm so HAPPY FOR YOU!" She squealed. "…Sakura…" Freya managed to breathe. "What?" Sakura asked. "Air!" Freya gasped. "Oh! Sorry about that!" Sakura laughed. Sakura ran over to her door. "Come on, let's go see Syaoran! I'm kind of hungry… I want food." Sakura giggled. Freya walked over with a smile on her face. Freya walked out first, then Sakura. She noticed them briefly exchange worried glances with each other and Tomoyo shared the same expression. They quickly wiped it away as Sakura pulled the door behind her. "Shall we go?" She asked. "Of course." Freya smiled.
When the four of them headed down the hall with the newly uncovered painting, Sakura looked up at it, taking in the black haired boy's appearance. She felt tears fall for her lost brother and sister for the second time that day. If what Syaoran had told her was true, which it most definitely was, then part of her sister's soul resided in her. Sakura wanted to know more about her past, more about her family, but most of all-she wanted to know why his brother killed them.
Well, how was it? I haven't revealed Yuui's whole personality yet, because…well…I'm horrible.
