Look! I'm back before the years end! Hahaha! Hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving planned!

..."..."..."..."...

Flashback:

He finished up the remainder of the dishes with her attached to him and then turned to gather her into a warm embrace. "I would do anything for you. You know that." He whispered before lifting her chin bending down to kiss her.

..."..."..."..."...

Sakura's eyes flew open as Syaoran's lips touched hers, but they slowly closed as she began to press into him even more then before. 'This is Syaoran. This is your best friend. Everything is going to be okay.' As she started to relax against him, Syaoran pulled away.

'Oh god, what have I done?' He took a step back, pressing into the counter, and pulled his hands away from her.

Sakura quickly grabbed one of his retreating hands and brought it to her heart using both of her hands to keep him in her hold. She smiled softly at him as fear washed over his face. "You love me. Don't you?"

Syaoran's face went from fear to shock and then desperation. "Sakura I-"

She stopped him by pulling his hand to her cheek and whispering into his wrist, "I know you do. You've told me so many times, but I just haven't heard you. I'm sorry Syao-"

It was his turn to interrupt her. Taking his free hand, he placed it on her opposite cheek. "Don't." He whispered simply, and her eyes softened and she stepped into his embrace yet again.

'This is where I need to be. I knew it all along.' Sakura smiled into his shirt. "I'm tired. Can we go to bed?"

Syaoran placed his chin atop her head and softly replied, "Of course."

..."..."..."..."...

Touya stood from the table and walked dirty dishes to the sink. Fujitaka thanked his son and excused himself, but not before thanking Yukito for all of his services.

Yukito looked at the table and replied, "It was no trouble sir, anything I can do to help."

Fujitaka nodded his thanks and retired to his room for the night.

Standing from the table, Yukito grabbed the remainder of the dishes and took them to the sink. Grabbing a nearby dishtowel, he took the freshly washed plate from Touya's grasp.

"Don't worry about it Yuki, I got this covered." Touya turned to him slightly when he received no response. He let the silence hang in the air until he got to the last plate. Handing it to Yukito he spoke again, "You didn't need to help me Yuki. You've already helped enough."

Yukito placed the now dry plate into the cupboard and slowly extracted his hand. His voice was barely a whisper and he let his gaze stray on the counter top. "I don't want to be alone."

Touya tilted his head in confusion. "Yuki, what are you talking about?"

Yukito turned to look at Touya with a few tears leaving his eyes and repeated a little louder, "I don't want to be alone!"

Touya shook his head trying to understand.

Yukito whimpered in desperation as he clutched his head and sank to his knees onthe ground. "I don't want to be alone. I can't be alone again." he breathed out in almost a plea.

Touya collapsed in front of him and threw his arms around Yukito's shoulders pulling the devastated Yuki towards him. "You aren't Yuki. I'm here. You're not alone."

Yukito shook in Touya's arms and all Touya could do was hold on to him as if their lives depended on it.

..."..."..."..."...

The cool breeze hit her face as she walked along the path. What a peaceful day! The flowers floated through the wind as if she were in a snow globe. It all felt so right and yet so familiar. But this was different, almost new. As she kept on walking the scenery only seemed to get prettier.

"It's so beautiful here." She whispered to herself.

A strong gust of wind blew in her face and she stopped walking and closed her eyes to take it all in.

"Sakura." A soft spoken, peaceful voice flooded through her ears.

Her eyes flew open to reveal a beautiful woman in front of her. "Mom?"

Her mother smiled at her and reached out her hand to ghost it over Sakura's face. "My daughter. Be happy."

Sakura returned the smile and nodded slightly. "I love you mom."

"Always." the figure whispered her last phrase amongst the wind as she left Sakura on her own.

Sakura's eyes flew open as she replayed what she had just dreamt. Turning her head to the warm figure laying at her side she smiled a true smile for the first time. Reaching her hand towards his face, she gently brushed offending bangs from his sleeping face. "Yes, everything is going to be okay." She whispered before leaning forward and kissing his forehead slightly. She continued to run her hand through his hair as his eyes fluttered open.

"Kura?" he questioned in a tired voice. His eyes searched her face to see what was wrong, but he only found her getnle expression.

"I love you too." She smiled brightly at him letting her hand fall to his cheek.

He grinned lazily at her and pulled her hand to his lips kissing it lightly. "It's still early. Go back to sleep."

She nodded and adjusted herself to rest her head on his shoulder. In turn, he wrapped his arms around her torso and settled underneath her. Placing a hand over his heart, she whispered to herself, "No more bad dreams."

"No." He whispered back, "No more bad dreams."
