Whole at last
Chapter 5
"Meilin! Please wake up, Meilin…" Syoran was crying desperately, trying to get Meilin to answer in some way. It was futile. Meilin was long gone. Everyone was crying nonstop. Everyone except Touya…he seemed pensive, as if he was in war with himself. He looked at Meilin, her body cold and pale, and then he looked at Sakura and her friends all crying for her loss. He decided he was going to saver her from death; after all, this might actually be beneficial for him in the future…
"Move out of the way Sakura" Touya said with an expressionless voice. He approached Meilin, put his hand on her heart and then a warm golden light surrounded Touya's hand and immediately went inside Meilin's heart.
Thump.
Thump.
Thump.
Thump.
Slowly, Meilin's heart started to beat again. Her pale cheeks first turned slightly pink and finally ruby red. Meilin inhaled deeply and opened her eyes. Everyone was astounded. They all turned around and looked at Meilin and started crying again, this time, tears of joy. Sakura cried her name and hugged her tightly, and many others followed her actions too.
"Isn't your house just around the corner, Li?" Touya asked still with no sign of emotion on his face.
"Yeah, we should take her there, let's go."
Once they arrived and had taken care of their injuries one single thought was on their minds. They all stared at Touya. He was sitting very casually on the couch talking on his cell phone. He did notice all the staring but decided to make them wait. 'They can wait, after all, this phone call is way more important than their questions.'
"Yeah, hey honey, yeah, I'm here… Don't worry honey, it's all right…. Yeah, he's sick; he won't be able to go to work tomorrow. Hell, probably for a week…. Yeah, I know, it's terrible…. He finally snapped, eh… Yeah, I always thought he would, his father was like that too, ya know?... Yeah, killed himself... Poor thing, I know, well what are you gonna do?... What?... Ya wanna go out later today?" Touya paused; he looked at all of his so-called 'friends' and then he looked at Meilin's room, where she was sound asleep.
"Ya know what hons, I can't later today, but I'll call you as soon as I clear my agenda… I'm gonna go find Alex, I don't want him doing anything stupid, ya know?" he chuckled "Ya think is cute? Don't worry hon… when I find him and help him out with his problem we'll go out. I don't think I would be able to…give you my complete attention with him on the loose and in possible danger… OK then, I luv ya, sweetums. Buh bye" The call ended. He turned off his cell phone and said:
"What?" He wasn't going to let them know anything that easily, it was not his style. If a person wanted something from him, they had to beg. No begging, no answers. It was that simple. He then got up and opened Meilin's door to see how she was. She was asleep, looking like a beautiful angel. He closed the door and went back to the couch. Then he waited.
"Oniisan, what's going on? When. When did you get your powers back?" Sakura said looking to the floor, afraid that Touya's icy glare might freeze her.
"…"
"Yeah, Touya, why didn't you tell us?" Yukito said stepping closer
"…" Touya whose gaze was positioned at Meilin's door moved to Sakura, then to Yukito, then to Syoran and then to Kaho who had arrived moments after they did. He stood up getting ready to go.
"So you are not going to tell us anything?" Syoran blocked the way to the main door. Sure he had seen Touya's power but he could still kick his ass.
"Move" Touya said with a blank look.
"I will not move until you give us an explanation."
"An explanation? Youthink I owe you an explanation?" He had use a lot of his energy reviving the gaki's cousin, Meilin, but he could still fight his way out.
"Touya, we don't want to fight you. We just want to understand." Kaho finally said something to him. She hadn't done so in a long time, his name for the first time in so long finally muttered.
"There is nothing for you to understand, because it's not of your damn business." Touya did not even raise his voice but still managed to sound menacing.
"But, Oniisan…" Touya looked at Sakura. 'Those eyes…Maybe I should help her. No. I already did enough by helping her friend. I defied the Kings already. I can't do more.'
"Please. Touya." Touya was cut off his thoughts and looked at who had said that. 'Yukito'
"I guess… I guess I can share some truth..." 'Yukito. You still…. You still have control over me… but it still hurts so much...'
"Ya know, what?" Touya regained control; Yukito was not going to control him anymore. Not anymore. "I'm too tired, I'll explain later. I'm going now, ok? I'll come back after I've rested"
"Wait! You. You don't have to go, you can stay here, everybody else is"
'That damn gaki just invited me to stay. Mmm… what should I do?' Touya looked at Meilin's room once more and nodded in agreement.
"Fine, I'll stay. Where is my room?"
