Chapter Two... Good Advice

Yue flew to the small woods near the house and came to rest on a large boulder. He often came here to think clearly. In the house, he was just never alone enough to be able to think straight. Kero was constantly babbling about something, or Nakuru was always pestering him about this or that. They all drove him crazy. He even avoided Eriol as much as possible because of how he had felt about his prior master. Sakura, however, drove him crazy in another manner then the rest of them did. She pulled on him constantly with some unseen rope that was wrapped ever so delicatly around his heart. He could feel it every time he was taking up the same space as her. Even now he could still feel the slight pull of her consiousness. Yue sighed. "Why does it always seem so hard to tell her anything? I just don't know how long I can deal with being around her and feeling like this." he calmly stated, looking out over the water for some reasurance if it could give him any.

Standing slightly out of the way, he could hear the guardian's words and sighed thoughtfully. 'My poor little angel, you'll someday grow tire d of being lonely. Soon you will tell her how you feel... soon.' , Eriol thought and with one last glance to his prior guardian, turned and continued his treck back up to the house.

Back at the house, Nakuru and Keroberos were getting into a fight about some game she was playing that he wanted to play. Nakuru pushed Kero away from her. "Go away! I'm not letting you play my game, you'd surely break it!" She spat, pulling the controller out behind her in an attempt to keep him from grabbing it. Eriol walked up behind her and lightly lifted the controller from her hand and looked down at the two with an annoyed glare. At the realization that the controller was missing from her hand, they both looked up to see where it had gone. Nakuru stood up instantly and bowed to her master, while Kero stood there looking as if he was caught with his paw in the cookie jar... again! "Master Eriol, I am sorry for the disruption!" she stammered, hoping he wouldn't be to angry about their fight. Eriol looked from Nakuru to Kero and then sighed. "What am I ever going to do with you two, you are always fighting over this thing. I suggest that if you can't play fairly, that neither of you should play it at all. Understood?" he stated calmly, holding the controller firmly in his hand.

Nakuru and Kero exchanged glances, or rather glares and nodded in the direction of Eriol. "Good! Now that you both understand, I'd like you to go finish up the chores you never started. Is that clear?" he said, his hands now on his hips. They both nodded and sulked away into the other room. As they exited, Sakura was coming through the doorway looking at Eriol in a most confused manner. "What happened to them?" she asked. Eriol looked up at her and smiled. "They were fighting over this again." he sai d, holding up the controller that was attached to the game system they played often. Sakura giggled and came over next to him. "I'm sure that someday they will learn to share it." she stated with hope. They both looked at each other and burst into laughter. "I doubt it!" Eriol laughed. Sakura took the controller from him and placed it back down on the floor infront of the television and turned back to him.

Eriol looked at her and could somehow sense something was amiss. "What's wrong Sakura?" he asked, deep concern for her in his eyes. She sighed and looked off towards the chair Yue always sat in. "It's Yue, Eriol. I think there may be something wrong with him, but he has been avoiding me and my questions. I just don't know how else to approach the matter." she answered, her eyes full of sadness. 'My my... If only you knew why he was avoiding you. How entirely innocent you still are...' Eriol thought. "It might just be something he doesn't know exactly what to do about what it is that is bothering him. Perhaps he just needs to have someone to listen to him." Eriol hinted, looking at her with a grin. Sakura stood there for a moment and suddenly realized Eriol's intentions.

"You want me to do it? He doesn't even seem to want to be around me half the time, and plus every time I ask him what is wrong, he starts brooding!" she explained with a sigh. "Surely if you showed him just how much you care about him, perhaps he might be willing to share some things with you." he said. Sakura thought on this a moment and then sighed with resignition. "Maybe your right." she replied, a smile coming onto her face. Eriol patted her on the shoulder and with a small smile exited the room to leave her with thoughts of what to say when she finally confronted Yue.
