Not one to be awkward, Touya slid his arm around Yue's waist. Yue turned to
glare at him, but the glare seemed rather insincere and other than that Yue
made no objection to being held, but he did fix his eyes on the sidewalk so
that his hair covered his face and Touya could not read his expression.
The two walked silently until they reached Touya's house. As they walked up to the door of the house Touya mentally berated himself for not saying anything to Yue. The fact was he knew their were issues between himself and the guardian that needed to be addressed. When it came to putting it all into words however, Touya found it harder to come up with a starting point for the discussion of the reeling mass of confusion that was his love life.
Releasing Yue form his hold Touya fiddled with the house keys unlocking the door in the dark. He made a gesture for Yue to be quiet and the guardian just rolled his eyes as if to say "Do you think I'm stupid."
The look almost made Touya burst out laughing because subtlety was not one of Yue's strong points, Yue tended to appear when he wanted to, be as loud as he wanted to, and do whatever he deemed necessary. The truth was that the only reason the guardian was silent now was because he thought it was in his best interest to do so otherwise no request Touya made would have kept him quiet.
Touya crept up the stairs, and Yue, although he was to dignified to creep, followed. Touya walked to his sisters door, and knocked on it, he heard mumbles and the thud of someone rolling out of bed. Sakura cracked open the door appearing with messy hair in pink pajamas.
"Touya it's so late...." Sakura mumbled. Touya pointed to Yue standing next to him. Sakura's sleepy eyes followed the direction his finger indicated, and focused on her moon guardian.
"I think this belongs to you." Touya said. Sakura let out a yelp of surprise, and Touya indicated that she should be quiet.
"I'll wake up Kero" Sakura whispered dashing back into her room. Yue followed her into the room without so much as a glance back at Touya. Touya shut the door and let out an exasperated sigh as he made his way back to his room.
Touya couldn't help but feel left out, his sister had always dealt with the cards, but he had always been the one to deal with ghosts. With all Sakura had faced with the cards he should have felt confident she could deal with a few spirits, but could she? and more to the point did he want her to have to deal with that sort of thing? The answer was no in his mind, but he no longer had the power to handle that particular job. While he did not regret his choice in giving up his powers, he could not help but be frustrated with the fact that he could not do something that he once could. In a way he had lost one of his senses and the adjustment was difficult.
Further more their was a sting of jealousy at Sakura for getting to be alone with Yue. Closing the door behind him as he entered his room, Touya messed up his short black hair in frustration. Touya let himself fall face down on his bed, letting the cool blankets absorb his body heat. He was tired but he couldn't sleep, he rolled on his back and stared at the ceiling, letting thoughts run through his mind until it finally ran blank.
He had not been expecting the sound of his door opening about half an hour later, and since he had been running his mind in circles the whole time his nerves got the better of him when the door opened, and he sat bolt upright on the bed, at the unexpected sound, to see Yue stand in the doorway looking at him.
"Did I wake you?" Yue asked as he slipped into the room and closed the door behind him. Touya blinked.
"No I was still up." he answered, swinging his legs over the side of the bed he stood as Yue sat by the window.
"You didn't have to get up." Yue stated looking out the window at the moon. His face was troubled and Touya remember what Yue had said about not wanting anything to follow them home.
"Did something follow us from the park?" Touya asked.
Author's Note:
Well third chapter is up now which is interesting because originally this story was in my junk folder saved under the title "Potential story, but crap so far." no honestly that is what it is saved as on my computer *lol* so now you know the stories original title, but I think "Of Yin and Yang" Will work better for it in the long run. Special thanks to butterflydreaming for reviewing both my stories, sorry to say I will not be adding any more to my first story "The Kiss" because I'm afraid of messing it up, but if you want to look at it this way "The Kiss" can be read as a prequel to this story although you can read one story without reading the other and still understand what is going on. You are very right about the chapters, they should be longer, that would work much better. I'll keep that in mind when and if I write another story. Thanks always, Glasses 0-0
