Thankyou so much 4 reviewing guys! *hugs everyone* I'm so happy that people actually LIKE Azure Flame!
Answer for reviews:
mizutenshiai: four words; Thank you so much ^_^
KawaiinessPnay: Have I really confused u? Sounds like it. Syaoran has a brother - NOT as son k? I'm not sure Eriol's nuts can take any more abuse, but if I feel the urge to, your gonna be the one. Now I remember - Not another Clinched Game…funny ^_^ Moon revenge is a cool song! U like it too?
crystal-chan: You're absolutely right! Syaoran only has 4 sisters - which I don't mention in this fic. I'm just making up that he has a brother, though really technically he DOESN"T have a brother…u'll see what I mean. I wanted to make Syaoran have a brother, because I loooove making Syaoran act all fatherly *stars in eyes* By the way, I'm glad u like da opic with Syaoran with green hair ^_^
Kazeshi: Cool another person who wants me to email then when I update! Yay! Dat's okay, I love S+S too ^_^ Aren't my chapter long enough???

Pink Cherry Blossom: Don't worry! I'd never DREAM about harming Syao's brother! Thanks a lot 4 ur review -it was a gooood one ^_^
Azure Flame
Chapter 6 - Syaoran's secrets
" You feeling alright now?" Syaoran asked, gently. The little boy struggled to shake his head. Syaoran sighed and slid his hand under the boy's dark brown fringe, to feel his forehead.
" You've still got a fever I'm afraid," Syaoran explained to the child lying on his lap. The child closed his eyes again and snuggled into Syaoran's warm chest - the poor thing was freezing. Syaoran's heart froze as he saw a tear roll down the boy's face.
" It's alright Hiro!" Syaoran said, gently stroking the boy's fringe. " I better get you medicine then," Syaoran said, sliding Hiroki of his lap and into the boy's bed.
As he got up to leave, Hiroki feebly called out, " No Syao! Please don't leave me!"
Syaoran sighed again, " I'll be right back k?"
***
Syaoran's cell phone started ringing, so he hurriedly answered it. " Moshi moshi?"
" Syao-kun! Where were you?! I waited for you at the school gates, but you weren't there!" Kami asked in a spoilt outrage.
" Oh calm down," Syaoran scolded, totally not in the mood fro her constant bickering. " I had to take my brother home early."
" Why?"
" because he was sick."
" Oh big deal! Everybody gets sick." Syaoran clutched the small phone harder. He absolutely couldn't stand it when Kami talked about his brother that way. " if it makes you feel better, you can come over later alright?" Syaoran offered hotly.
" I'm way ahead of you."
" What…do you mean?" Syaoran asked suspiciously, dreasing what the answer would be. Then he heard the door bell. " Oh God!" he muttered under his breath.
***
" Syao? Why does SHE have to be here?" Hiroki asked.
" Because, she is." Syaoran simply replied, feeling as annoyed as Hiroki was. " Call me if you feel sick again okay?" Syaoran askes, getting ready to turn of the light.
" Okay….Syao, I'm feeling sick again!"
Syaoran rolled his eyes. " None of that smart-ass stuff okay?" Syaoran joked.
" I can't get to sleep yet!"
" Why not?"
" You haven't read me a a story yet!"
" FINE! HERE'S ONE!" Kami said, appearing in the doorway. Hiroki squirmed uncomfortably.
" There was once a beautiful princess, who needed to spend time alone with her prince." Syaoiran shivered awkwardly as she walked over and hugged his back tightly.
" So…she did." This time she kissed Syaoran's cheek. When she was done, her starling red demonic eyes locked onto Hiroki's blue ones. " The End!" (Bitch alert! -_-;;)
" Night Hiro," Syaoran said and kissed his hot forehead. As soon as Syaoran and Kami had left and the room was filled with darkness, Hiroki hugged his knees sadly. I hate it when SHE stays the night. I always have to cover my ears! (EWWWWW I can't believe I actually wrote that! *shudders* well at least Louisa laughed at that.)
Maybe she's right…maybe Onii-chan really doesn't like me…I know Dad doesn't. What if one day Onii-chan chucks me out, bacuse I annoy him too much and because I'm adopted! I know what I'll do. I will not bother him anymore. So next time I feel like I'm going to be sick, I will not let him know! Then he'll think I'm a good boy and like me! (That eeeevil bitch Kami! She put evil thoughts in his mind!!!!!!)
A tear slid down Hiroki's cheek and he hugged his legs tighter. I know Sakuwa will know what to do! I wish she was here now, then I wouldn't feel so lonely…

Syaoran finished swallowing the glass of water and then closed the fridge door with the side of his foot. As he softly put his glass in the sink his ears pricked up as he heard crying.
He scowled as he passed his fathers vacant room (Yes, in my story, Syao only has a father k) and softly opened the door of Hiroki's room.
" Budge over," Syaoran gently demanded. Hiroki slowly made room for him.
" Thanks," Syaorans aid and gently pulled Hiroki onto his lap. Whipping a tissue out of his green pyjama pocket and started wiping the tears off Hiroki's face. Hiroki sniffed, embarrassed.
" Now please tell me what's wrong?" Syaoran asked.
" I just feel sick."
" Ooh my poor baby bubby," Syaoran joked, " maybe we need to get you sedated! Would that help?"
" That's not funny ' nii-chan."
" Sorry," Syaoran apologised solemnly. There was silence.
" Is she still here?" Hiroki asked.
" Who?"
" …Kami."
"No."
" When did she leave?"
" Hors ago."
"Is Dad here?"
"…No," Syaoran sighed.
" When will he be?"
" I'm not sure."
" Will he hit you again?"
Syaoran paused," I dunno…"
" Will I get better?"
" Of course you will!"
"Onii-chan?"
" Yeah?"
"Can you stay a little longer? And…tell me about mummy again?"
" Sure." Hiroki hugged Syaoran and then climbed out of his lap. Half under the sheets Hiroki sleepily placed his head on Syaoran's lap and used it as a pillow. Syaoran thought of what he could say to Hiroki and then said it: "Well, Mummy was walking one day and found you all alone in the snow, and decided that she wanted to keep you," Not entirely true, but Hiro doesn't need to know that… "And then one day, Mummy got sick and Kami-sama called for her. Now she's in heaven in a pretty dress made of the purest fabric that glows a calming white."
"Is she really an angel now Syao?"
"Most definitely." Syaoran assured him, although not entirely believing.
" I wish she was still here. Why didn't Kami-sama take Dad instead?" Hiroki asked. Syaoran grinned sadly, " that's not very nice to say Hiroki…I'm not sure Kami-sama would want him anyway!" Syaoran joked bitterly.
Hiroki let out a tired giggle and then fell asleep. Moving his numb legs, Syaoran hobbled slightly out of Hiroki's bedroom and into his own.

"Xiao Lang," Syaoran heards his mother call out in Chinese.
"M-Mother?" Syaoran asked the darkness, then his mother's figure appeared. " I'm here honey." Syaoran ran into his mother's arms and hugged her tightly, refusing to let go. " it's been too long," he complained. Eventually he looked up and was surprised to see her face alter into Sakura's. (^_~ )
Syaoran blinked, confused. " I'm here for you Syao-kun!" Sakura said smiling peacefully at him. It despaired Syaoran when her face suddenly began to fade too. " SAKURA!" Syaoran heard himself yell desperately. "Don't leave me as well!"
Syaoran opened his eyes, breathing heavily. " Stupid dreams!" he muttered, then wiped the tears off his quivering face.
