Chappie 3:Mistunderstandings.
Yuke stirred.. She was so warm. Without knowing it, she said daddy in her sleep (A/N: I know I changed it but daddy sounds better!) Then remembered no more.
The next morning, Umi was surprised to see a 7-year-old Yuck waking up.
"Mommy? Why do I feel taller?"She said looking at herself. Her nightgown was 1 foot too short and a bit too tight. (A/N: I'm gonna add a bit more detail.) Looking again at her form, she took off her nightgown and looked around for some clothes. She went throught a bag muttering" No. Too small. No way.. Small." And then Sutake walked into the room. Looking at the underdressed Yuke he blushed and said,"If you need some clothes, you can borrow some of my old ones. You're about the same height as me."
Nodding her thanks she took a towel to cover herself and went to get the clothes.
Umi noticed the slight blush on both of the children's cheeks. 'Ah.too be young and in love.' she thought. She put on some casual clothes and went down for breakfast.
Walking in she found everyone eating already. Except. she noticed Clef avoiding her gaze and when he did look at her, it was rather cold. After breakfast, when everyone else had gone, he pulled her aside.
"Umi, I think we need to talk."Clef said.
"Ok." Walking to the garden, he stopped at the fountain. He started to talk.
" The child.who's her father?" he demanded coldly.
"." Umi said nothing, not wanting to spoil her surprise. Clef mistaking it as something she didn't want to tell him. He turned away and said coldly, " I understand that you found someone else. I never knew you would replace me that quickly and was so eager to find someone else. I thought you were better than that. I just wanted to see you again, but look what I get! You come back with someone else's child! I never thought you were that cold; you could have at least told me to my face. Good day Umi." Umi stiffened, just taking in what happened.'No. she thought. he doesn't know. and it's all my fault. he thinks I betrayed him.' wiping away a tear she ran off the garden. 'Now he hates me..'
Yuke watched the whole thing. Her mind was racing; it was like a 2 and 1/2-year-old in a 7-year-old body. But she had figured out one thing. That man. was familiar. Running off she went to find him.
Umi thought' Now he probably hates me. he thinks I was with someone else.' then she sat up. Wiping away tears, she said to herself," Fine, so be it. If you want to play a game, I'll play along." She walked out a small steam of tears still left shining in the air.
Yuke raced up into the castle. In her haste, she bumped into Fuu and fell. "Owie." Then she said (A/N: She doesn't know where Clef stays!) " Do you know where that purple-hair man is?"
Chuckling slightly, Fuu helped her up and led her there and left her at the door. Knocking softly, she heard a voice say," Come in."
Clef could barely hide his shock; he was looking into a mirror! The purple hair and the blue eyes. They held a childish innocence and yet held wisdom. 'She will be a good student' he thought. Looking at her again, he regained some dignity and said," Do you need something?"
" Can you teach me that bright, shiny stuff you do?" Yuke asked,
Surpressing a smile, "Well, humm. how about you try any magic that you know against me first?" 'Surely Umi must have taught her something!' he thought.
Yuke looked slightly crestfallen but got up and took something out from her tiny bag/purse. And pulled out a sword that was a little too big for her but it looked as f it belonged with her.
" Well, I don't know any magic or martial arts but er.mister? I think I can use a sword!" she got up and into a slightly messed up fighting stance.
Clef decided to take her as a student." Well, first of all, my name's not Mister, it's Guru Clef, but just call me Clef. And second your stance is slightly off." Grinning slightly, he went over and moved her arms and legs until he found them perfect. "Now we duel."
Charging in, they fought, of course with Clef having the advantage of experience and speed, he found her ferocity and her natural skill intriguing. 'Just like her mother. but who's her father?' he thought.
Stopping her when he saw her getting more and more sloppy he asked," Who taught you?"
"No one. It's just I dunno?" she said surprised that she had even lasted.
" Who's your father?" Clef asked slightly curious.
Yuke got on a chair and got a blank and distant look in her eyes. The look was familiar. shrugging away any likely answers he got on a chair next to the little girl.
Yuke sighed." I really don't know. Mommy never told me and when I asked, she always changed the subject with me or said Somewhere." Yuke could feel tears on her new bruises from their fight, sobbing quietly she fell asleep on Clef's lap.
Umi peeked into the room. She saw Yuke and Clef talking. 'Father and daughter bonding time..' she thought and was about to join them. But she remembered what happened in the garden and walked away. She wanted to spend some time alone.
Walking into the palace garden, she marveled at its beauty. Then sitting herself on the fountain she remembered what had happened here. 7 years ago in Cephiro.
:: Flashback::
Umi sat on the fountain crying. Clef had been avoiding her. Was it because he hated her or liked someone else? She continued crying until she saw someone approaching her. 'Oh no. the last person she wanted to see right now.'
He sat down next to her and asked," What's wrong Umi?"He asked concerned.
Umi looked at him. " Iloveyou." she blurted out. Seeing his silence she turned away and was about to leave when some caught her arms and held her back. His breath was tickling her neck.
"Why didn't you tell me Umi?" Umi blushed and tried to walk away again but he held her tight.
" Aishiteru Umi. And kissed her.
:: End Flashback::
Umi smiled slightly noticing a tear rundown her face but paid no attention to It.'Clef.' She shook it away." I'm not backing down now, and you'll see how much it hurt not to be together."
A/N: Whew! Long chappie! Er. don't really have anything to say and I'm felling too lazy to write a preview.. (Sigh) Oh well you just have to tune in next time and read the next chappie!
