Friendship Isn't That Strong chapter: 10
Grr…my computer was acting funny so I couldn't get online sorry but all-in all I now have it in AND I'm happy to know that people loved seeing Touya come into the story. Well anyway, here's chapter 10!
Yukito walked closer to Touya who was trying his best to avoid eye contact. "Touya, why are you avoiding eye contact with me? Is this the way you treat your childhood best friend?"
Touya glanced at Yukito and then back down toward the ground. "Leave me alone Yuki." Touya began to walk away but Yukito grabbed a hold of his wrist and smiled. "Are you here to see Sak…"
"Hell the fuck no!" Touya yanked his wrist away from Yukito and glared at him, "I never want to see that little demon child again!"
Yukito jumped back, his brown eyes almost looked red and the gesture on Touya's face was….terrifying. Touya snapped back to reality, took in a deep breath, calmed down, and smiled. "Sorry Yuki, I guess I'm just still a little edgy about the whole thing." Touya put his arm around Yukito and gave him a pat on the back. "I'm just here trying to work to make ends meet is all, why are you here Yuki?"
Yukito stared up at Touya and weakly grinned. Touya still did the same thing he did when they were little. Whenever it was just him and Yukito, Touya would always smile, but whenever the slightest mention of Sakura came into play, he turned into someone else…something else. "I…I'm just here with some friends." 'I can't tell him about me being here with Sakura…who knows what will happen if I do…'
"Oh, hey I'm going to be off in 30 minutes so can I join you guys?"
Yukito's heart dropped, if he said yes it would risk him and Sakura meeting face to face. If he said no, then Touya would be hurt since they hadn't seen each other in years. "Uhh…well it would be great for you to join us but…"
Touya let go of Yukito, "Alright then you stay here and get something to eat until I get off okay?" Touya ran back toward the counter and left Yukito in confusion. "W…what just happened? Oh boy..."
Sakura and Eriol raced after Syaoran and Tomoyo, both noticed Yukito stayed behind but decided not to get too bothered with it.
"Dammit, this is your entire fault that we lost them Eriol!"
"My fault, how the hell did you come to that conclusion!"
"If you two hadn't started acting like complete idiots, I would have still been watching them!"
Eriol begins to say something but stops himself and smirks. "You know something; I refuse to sink to your level little Saku. I'm going to remain the mature one in this little argument."
Sakura smirks right back at him, "You're just saying that because you know what I said was true."
Eriol once again begins to say something but both of them ram into a large man who was blocking the hallway.
"Who the hell are you two?" Eriol and Sakura both shivered, the man's voice was very deep and gave them a big chill down their backs.
Sakura stumbled up and smiled as innocently as she could, "W…well I'm Sakura Kinomoto and this is my friend Eriol Hiiragizawa, we're here for the weekend to relax."
The man looked down at Sakura and she felt even smaller than normal. The man's eyes glared into her's and then he glared at Eriol who was still on the ground. "Let me see your pass cards then."
Eriol and Sakura looked at each other and then back at him. "Pass cards?" The man looked at them suspiciously; Eriol got up and put his arm around Sakura. "Oh our pass cards! We…we left them in our rooms of course! Isn't that right Sakura!"
Sakura growled quietly at Eriol and gave him the 'get your fucking arm off from around me' look. Eriol nudged Sakura. "Isn't that right Sakura?"
"Huh, oh yes! We completely forgot our pass cards in our rooms!"
The man folded his arms. "Then take me to your room."
Eriol and Sakura once again looked at each other and then back at the man. "Our rooms?"
"Yes."
Sakura whispered into Eriol's ear. "Where the fuck is our room!"
"Like hell I know."
"What do you fucking mean you don't know where our damn room is!"
"What the hell did I just say woman?"
The man grabbed both of their wrists. "Well it seems we have two little intruders, I'm sure you wouldn't mind it if I threw you two out would you?" The man grinned at them both and they looked at each other with blanked expressions.
"They're with me."
The man dropped them both and bowed. "Hello, Master Li." The man rose. "Did you just say these two hoodlums are your guest?"
Syaoran walked toward the man with Tomoyo hanging onto his arm. "Yes, I did say that. They don't have pass cards because they don't have reservations here." Sakura and Eriol sighed in relief, never before were they so happy to see Syaoran in their entire lives. "So sir, if you don't mind please go back to your original post."
"Yes Master Li." The man walked off and pretended as if nothing had happened. Eriol got up as well did Sakura and they both leaned against the wall.
"I…I thought he was going to kill us…" Sakura sighed.
"Yeah well he should have considering you guys have been following us this whole time!"
Sakura and Eriol jumped up, "You knew!"
Tomoyo giggled. "Yes, we heard you guys laughing but it's alright, it was kind of fun actually." She smiled and looked up at Syaoran who looked back down at her and smiled.
Eriol gulped, "So did…something happen between you two?"
Tomoyo deeply blushed and Syaoran just laughed. "Nah, we just ran away when you guys weren't looking. It was the excitement of watching you two run after us is what made it so much fun and when that man caught you two, that was the funniest part."
Sakura balled up her fist "You saw us being bullied by that big asshole and all you fucking did was laugh?"
Syaoran smirked. "Yeah so what are you going to do about it?"
Sakura wanted to say something so bad but she couldn't think of anything so she stormed off. "I'm going to go find Yuki!"
Syaoran walked after her. "Yeah and what is HE going to do?"
"Shut up!"
Eriol and Tomoyo laughed at them argue. "They're becoming good friends."
Eriol stopped laughing and stared down at Tomoyo. "Yeah it sure seems that way but so are you two Miss Daidouji."
Tomoyo stops walking and glares up at Eriol. "Stop it."
Eriol looks back at Tomoyo with a confusing look. "Stop what?"
Tomoyo folds her arms. "I've known you just as long as Sakura but you still call me by my last name!"
Eriol blushes and looks away, "So do you."
Tomoyo looks away and blushes from embarrassment. "That's different."
"Oh really? How?" Eriol grins at Tomoyo struggling to find the answer.
"Well…whatever just call me Tomoyo already!" Tomoyo's voice surprises Eriol to the point where he let's out a small laugh.
"I've never seen you this aggressive, Tomoyo."
Tomoyo giggles. "Whatever, Eriol." Eriol blushes from hearing his name from Tomoyo's mouth and smiles. "Come on we better catch up."
Eriol snaps out of his daze. "Oh okay!" Eriol runs up beside Tomoyo's and blushes. 'Tomoyo…she's something alright, something…incredible."
They walk down the halls trying to find Yukito until it begins to get really late in the evening. They check the first floor and then go back up the second but still no sign of him anywhere. All of the other guests are in their rooms because everything on the first and second floor closes, so it's only them wondering around the building. They get to the third floor and Sakura and Tomoyo are amazed. Just like the second floor, it has glass windows until you reach the hallways where the walls are painted gold; there are numerous hallways each with 10 rooms on each side. Sakura falls to the ground. "This…is amazing but…too much walking."
"You just need to exercise more Saku." Says Syaoran as he pulls her up off the ground, "There aren't many places he can go up here since he doesn't know which room we're in and Yukito seems like the type of guy who'd probably wait somewhere for us."
Tomoyo giggles. "Yeah Yuki may wait but if he found someone who he could hang out with, he'd have a hard time saying no to them."
Sakura laughs, "Yuki maybe reasonable but he's also a pushover so if some girls found him sitting all alone, he'd probably go with them if they asked."
Eriol drops to the floor, "Well then fuck it we'll find him in the damn morning, because I'm am fucking tired dammit!"
Then they hear voices coming from a few hallways down and Sakura jumps up with a huge smile on her face. "That's Yuki! I know it has to be!" Sakura races down the hallway leaving everyone to walk behind her. "Where the hell does she get so much damn energy?" Eriol struggles to walk forward and Syaoran smiles.
"Well she's just full of surprises isn't she?" Tomoyo stares up at Syaoran and then clings onto his arm again. 'Please Syaoran…stop smiling for her like that. Smile only for me Syaoran…please…'
Sakura runs as fast as she can and hears the voices getting closer. 'Yes, I knew it was Yuki!' Sakura turns to the hall and sees Yuki standing at the end laughing with someone. Sakura races toward him and Yukito looks at Sakura who is running as fast as lighting toward him and tries to signal for her to turn around but it's already too late. She jumps onto him and Yukito breathing for a moment stops. "Found you Yuki! Where did you go!" Yukito doesn't answer and just stares straight ahead in horror. "Yuki? What happened?" Sakura gets down off him and touches his face. "Why do you look so scared?"
"It's you…"
Sakura looks over at the man who was with Yukito and her heart stops beating, her breathing becomes faster, and her body begins to tremble. "T…T…Touya…"
Touya began to walk toward her, his eyes were burning up and his hair seemed to stand up. "Why in the hell are you here, you little bitch!"
Sakura's couldn't move her legs no matter how hard she tried. 'Why can't I move! I need to run away now! He'll…he'll kill me if I don't! Yuki! Yuki help me…someone anyone…save me!' Tears began to run down her cheeks and her breathing only became faster.
"I never…I never wanted to see your face again. I swore that…if by any chance of fate if I saw you again. I'd make you pay for taking away mom's life, you damn demon child. I hate you…"
Down the hallway Syaoran, Tomoyo, and Eriol finally turned to the hallway where Sakura was. "Oh hey you two, look! It's Touya!"
Eriol looked at Tomoyo, "Touya?"
"Yeah Sakura's older brother."
Syaoran's body seemed to tense up and his amber eyes began to turn into fire. 'I knew she was lying! She told me that her brother had moved away with her dad! Why in the hell did I trust that little bitch!' Syaoran began to walk toward where they were, he planned to make Sakura pay for lying to him. Eriol could tell he was angry but didn't do anything to stop him, he was afraid. As soon as they got half way down the hallway, they all saw Touya's hand slowly rise and he slapped Sakura to the ground. Syaoran's anger disappeared from Sakura to Touya. "Sakura!"
Syaoran raced down the hallway as Touya walked closer to Sakura. "That one was for everything you did to me and dad and this one is for…" Touya raised up his fist, "is for my mother!"
Touya fist aimed straight at Sakura but Syaoran caught his fist before it hit her. "As long as…" Syaoran pulled in Touya's fist into his chest. "you stay at my resort…" Syaoran's eyes meet with Touya's they were both burning with flames. "you will never…" Syaoran clenched his fist, "hit Sakura!" Syaoran's fist made contact with Touya's stomach, let go of his hand, which caused Touya to fly into Yukito, and knocked them both onto the ground. Syaoran stood up and looked back at Sakura and his whole body trembled with angry and sadness. Sakura was in a ball on the floor holding her head and crying, her face was pale white and her body was trembling. Syaoran turned back toward Touya who rose off the floor. "I'm going to beat the shit out of him!" Syaoran was about to charge at Touya but Eriol held Syaoran back while Tomoyo checked on Sakura. Tomoyo had never seen Sakura so frightened before, she began to cry and held her best friend.
"Syaoran calm down!"
"Fuck no Eriol, if you keep holding onto me I'll kick your ass with his!"
Touya smirked at Syaoran who was struggling to get loose. "So, the little bitch has a little bastard to protect her little ass. Do you even know what she's done! She killed my mother!"
Syaoran struggled to break loose from Eriol, "Like hell she did! Her mom had a weak body to begin with and wasn't able to handle Sakura's birth, it wasn't Sakura's fault but you and fuck ass daddy had to blame someone so you both pointed your fingers at Sakura. You made her seem like she had actually murderer her mother! I can't…" Syaoran stopped struggling and his body began to grow hotter, he looked down at the ground, "…imagine what it would feel like to be that young and told that you killed your own mother." Syaoran looked back up at Touya, "Do you really believe that your mother brought Sakura into this world just so she could be treated like she wasn't even meant to be alive? Her mother gave birth to Sakura as a gift, but you bastards could never understand that could you…" Eriol grip on Syaoran loosened and Syaoran dropped his arms down, Eriol had never heard Syaoran speak his mind like this before and he wasn't the only one in shock. Sakura looked up at Syaoran, her body stopped shaking, and the tears stopped falling. She couldn't explain it even to herself, she felt a calm feeling when she looked at Syaoran…a warm feeling. Syaoran walked around Eriol with his face held down so no one could see him.
"You don't understand…what I have been going through these past years." Touya spoke to Syaoran but he didn't turn around to face him. "She…I mean…we…I…dammit!" Touya once again began to charge at Sakura but he was being held back.
"I won't let you touch my little sister Touya!" Touya's elbow hit Yukito in face and knocked off his glasses. Touya quit charging and turned to Yukito. "Yukito don't get in my…"
Yukito rose off the floor and stared at Touya, not with the calm expression he had always had but with an angry one. Even while there were tears rolling down Yukito's face, his expression didn't change nor did he wipe away the tears. "Touya, stop this right now. If you…if you try and hurt Sakura again, it won't be just Syaoran who knocks the mother fucking shit out of you."
Touya didn't try to go against Yukito because he knew that from his expression, he was serious. Touya's anger vanished, he didn't know what to do anymore. Yukito picked up his glasses and put them on, he turned and began to walk away from everyone. "Touya, come here."
Touya without any hesitation walked behind Yukito as they walked out of everyone's sight. Syaoran picked up Sakura, still with his head down. Tomoyo ran with Eriol to go and get something to put down the swelling on her face while Syaoran carried Sakura to the balcony.
"Syaoran, I can walk…"
"Shh…" Sakura glanced up at Syaoran who was still hiding his face. "…Sakura, I'm sorry." Sakura was taken by surprise with his apology and wanted to ask what for but she felt a tiny drop of water run onto her hand. She decided not to ask why but she did realize why he hid his face, it wasn't a lot but there with two or three tears running down his eyes. Sakura smiled, 'He's…crying for me…isn't he…mom?' Sakura lay against Syaoran's chest and listened to his heartbeat, she felt this overwhelming feeling from him as he carried her onto the balcony where the wind healed every scar she had. She glanced up at Syaoran who was smiling down at her and this time, she smiled back up at him without trying to hide.
To be continued…
…Well that was pretty long and dramatic heh. Sorry if I made it TOO dramatic I was just listening to some music that went along with what was happening and it made me become overly dramatic a bit. Also don't worry, Touya isn't as bad of a guy as he seems just remember that. Sorry, well I just figured out that this might be longer than I planned cuz I bunch of more things are going to happen that have just now been put into play. Well anyway, I hope you guys will keep on reading and reviewing for me, this chapter I stayed up to make perfect(course there will still be a couple of typos, darn spell check.) Next time (yes I have a planned out this time) it will continue from the balcony and what will happen next…hmmm, wouldn't y'all like to know. Will be in on Saturday or Friday night! Review please!
