I do not own XxxHolic or any of its characters, only Clamp does. I wish I did, but sadly I don't. Any thing I write is pure fiction and although it may have references from the actual story, it isn't the true story. So don't complain if it doesn't go like you want it to.
Also, there will be some implied boy x boy and yaoi, so if you don't like that kind of stuff, than don't read this.
Enjoy!

Y- Yin and Yang
He glanced at the thin piece of metal again, still not sure what to do with it. It was one side of the Yin Yang sign, white with a small dot of black standing stark against the white. What was he supposed to do with it?
He'd been suspicious the moment Yuuko had handed him the box with it in it, but now that he was looking at it, it appeared to be harmless.
Picking it up, he ran thin fingers over it. A rough texture on the back made him turn it over. The Chinese kanji for yin had been deeply engraved into the metal, the metal shinier inside than the metal on the outside.
Noticing a small loop, he guessed was supposed to be worn as a pendent or maybe a charm on a bracelet. He didn't have any bracelets so he pulled the thin chain out from under his shirt. He wore this necklace always, the chain woven through a loop of circular metal that shimmered a pale gold.
Unhooking it, he slid the pendent onto the chain and refastened it around his neck. Standing, he looked in the mirror, examining how it looked on him. It seemed to blend in with his pale skin, the black dot the only thing standing out.
He heard the door open, but didn't turn from the mirror. He watched him walk up from behind, their eyes meeting in the mirror. His arms shot out, snaking around his waist to pull him into Doumeki's broad chest.
He watched his gaze travel down to the new addition to his necklace. Ignoring the new addition, his hand rose to take hold of the ring that hung there. "When are you going to wear this?" He asked, eyes locked with his own.
"When you ask me properly instead of trusting the ring on me." he said irately, glaring at him in their reflection.
Doumeki grunted softly, than his hand shot up to unclasp the chain, the other grabbing both pieces of metal. He spun him around until he=is chest was flush with his. Bending down slightly, he kissed him chastely on the lips before pulling back
He lowered himself down to one knee, eyes staring up at him as he held out his hand with the ring nestled in his palm. "Watanuki Kimihiro, will you be the yin for my yang?" He asked him. It was thin that he noticed the charm Doumeki's wrist. The exact opposite of his. Yang. Yuuko at work again.
He looked down at the man before him. His enemy, best friend, lover. He'd realized awhile ago that Doumeki was the anchor for him, the one that truly kept him in this world. Without this strong man, he'd have been lost years ago. Besides what was one more title going to do to them. They were married in everyone's eyes except the governments. Might as well make it official.
He didn't say anything, just leaned forward to press his lips to his, laying his hand in Doumeki's as they kissed. When they parted, his hand sported a new piece of jewelry. He let a smile soften his features, as Doumeki stood back up. Time to go tell everyone the good news, though he suspected Yuuko already knew. Taking his hand, Doumeki lead him out of the room and back towards the small gathering of people that had come to the party.
He clutched the pendent in his hand until he knew it had left an impression. Doumeki was his yang, his opposite and equal and he'd not change it for the world, even if it meant he couldn't see spirits any longer. Doumeki, as if sensing his resolve, just squeezed his hand before they walked back into the main room.
Aww, soo cute. I've wanted to do a marriage piece or an engagement piece for a little while now, so here it is. I hope you like it. I'm not sure which side of the circle is yin and which is yang, so if I got it wrong, oh well. It fits just fine in the story so I don't really care. The last chapter will be up shortly.
Until Next Time
