Starless.As the night passes,
I silently pray,
that someone will come
and take me away.
But the stars don't seem
to lie in my path;
it'll just a dream
made out of my craft.
"I'm sorry but I'm feeling a bit tired. Excuse me," Tomoyo said and got up from where she was sitting. And pausing for a second, she looked up to Yue…
And smiled at it.
She walked away, leaving Yue to reprimand itself for being such a fool. Yue glared hard at the floor. It was angry, not angry with the girl, but angry at itself for trying its luck. It knew that it was not offering itself to be someone to support her, but instead trying to gain her for support. It was selfish of it to be thinking that it could easily use her for comfort…
And for her to take Clow's place in its heart.
It could no longer stand the loneliness that engulfed its heart. Its other half, Yukito, already had someone that he could rely on, someone that would risk his life for him, someone that both Yue and Tomoyo wished to have…
Looking up to the sky, it suddenly realized that it may never get out of this pool of loneliness…it was its destiny to stay loyal to its master as her servant until another master is appointed… Then Yue blinked. A sudden understanding hit its mind. Tomoyo didn't answer! All she did was avoid the question because…forget why she avoided it. It didn't even know.
Giving itself a kick in the head mentally, Yue flew up to the treetops, forgetting the fact that normal human beings were not accustomed to seeing flying angels in reality. Couples that were passionately kissing away in the moonlight were soon distracted with the figure with a pair of angelic wings flapping at its back. Some of them broke contact to stare. Others continued to kiss but their eyes never leaving Yue. One couple started to go red into the face from lack of air even if they weren't exactly kissing.
Searching frantically from high above, Yue combed the canopy of trees knowing that it a much better way than flying around in the park, thus attracting unwanted attention. But unfortunately, Yue was only greeted with loving couples, still with their hands wrapped around each other, and an envy feeling filled its cold mind.
Instead, Tomoyo was walking in the opposite direction from her manor. The burning question that Yue had imposed for her just kept playing back in her mind, making her head feel dizzy and her heart feel weak. Many times, she regretted not answering, for she met its other form quite often at Sakura's house and would only be reminded of the guilt of leaving in confusion.
Her firm steps began to weaken as her mind begins to flutter all over the place, revolving mainly about her life, her friends, and her long to see someone again. She missed him but she knew she would never have a chance to literally be with him. He already had someone else and it was about time that she forgets her silly childhood crush and move on with someone that she could rely on for support through her difficult life. On the other hand, she could forget about getting that special soul mate that she was wishing for. Unless her mother had introduced him, he would have to go under several prepared interviews and lie-detecting machines before he was allowed to go out with her. This would usually end up with the guy sick and tired of going through numerous questions and subsequently, a "break up" from a relationship that had never gone more than a mere question on whether she'd like to go out with him. The first date had never been successful; as bodyguards would be seen in and around the place spying on them, alert to report any unusual sights that happened. Other times, the first date had never been fulfilled at all.
Feeling herself bump into someone, she hurried to bow in apology and didn't even look up to see whom she was apologizing to. That person placed his hand on her face to lift it up and said, "Finally, I've found you."
Oddly startled, Tomoyo looked up and saw…
Eriol.
Mainey's Corner: Oha! Minna-san! I'm sorry if I've been confusing you and all with the 'hes' and the 'its' but I was just thinking of well, writing something different. Cause I am a big fan of Tomoyo+Yue fics but the thing is, everyone sort of refers to Yue as a male and I thought of doing something original? Hehe. I guess that's just the way that my head works. And sorry for this really late chapter too!
Once again, thank you to all those who reviewed!
