Note: I do not own Clow or its citizen. But I do own all the twilight books.

Still dedicated to Thunder-Phoenix! If you haven't read her work you haven't read any good Yukito/Toya stories!

Finally it was time for the ball and one by one the guest started to arrive.

(Most of them were young girls invited by the king.)

The ballroom was decorated with the latest fashion in Clow, a new trend where the walls were decorated with small glass ornaments and semi-precious jewels. Glass spheres hung from the room's chandelier and cast different colors of lights as they turned in the light breeze that blew in threw the open windows. It was a beautiful sight to behold and truly proper for a young prince's birthday. Too bad the prince could care less about the decorations.

Toya sat on his throne looking franticly for Yukito. He usually stood by Toya's side during these parties and helped him deal with all the crazy princesses who were trying to rip him to pieces. Without Yukito they were surrounding him, all trying to be the next queen of Clow. Using all the charm he could muster Toya parted the sea of raging girls and half ran to Sakura, who was playing with the peasant brat again.

"Sakura, have you seen Yukito?" He questioned desperately.

"No, last I saw he was going to have tea with Father. I'm sure he's fine. He probably just didn't feel like coming."

Toya sighed in disappointment.

Some birthday, his best friend and crush wasn't even there.

"Yukito, where are you?" He whispered to himself, praying to the heavens the boy was alright.

Yukito walked slowly across the large ballroom, searching for his love. He knew how Toya hated these over crowded parties with no one he knew.

Finally he spotted Toya hiding in a shadowy corner trying to escape from the princesses.

Yukito gazed at him for a long moment as he gathered up all his courage. Even unhappy and hiding the prince still looked like a god to the young high priest. The outfit he was wearing was new and especially made for the occasion. It was a classic black robe with white trim around the edge that reminded Yukito of the ying-yang symbol.

His own outfit was almost the exact opposite. He'd changed his robes into a dress that was similar to his everyday clothes in appearance and color. It was white and had ice blue trim that went with his light gray eyes. It felt odd walking in a dress but he'd practiced so that he wouldn't trip.

Taking one last deep breath to steady his nerves Yukito walked up to the brooding prince.

"Good evening Your Highness." Yukito said as he curtsied gracefully.

"Hello." Toya muttered, not looking up at the unexpected arrival.

"Would you……care to dance?" Yukito asked nervously.

Toya looked up at him for the first time and he felt himself blush as the prince looked him over. Then to Yukito's surprise Toya smiled and held out his hand.

"Alright, let's dance."

Yukito smiled brightly as he took Toya's hand and walked to the dance floor. Thankfully he'd learned to dance like a girl while he and Toya had practiced with each other as children.

With no effort he fell into the steps of the song and placed his hand on Toya's shoulder, as he'd done all those years ago.

Bit by bit, Toya pulled Yukito closer to him till they were pressed together and Yukito was blushing like crazy.

"My name's Toya. You never told me your name." He whispered softly.

Yukito voice didn't faultier as he spoke his decided name.

"I'm Ayumi."

Toya looked down at him and smiled softly.

"What a nice name."

For an instant Yukito thought he saw a flash of amusement cross Toya's face, but when he turned to look again it had vanished.

"So are you having a nice birthday Your Highness?" He questioned to break the silence.

"It's much better now that you're here." Toya admitted.

Yukito blushed a deep scarlet.

"Thank you Your Highness." He whispered, his face turned down in embarrassment.

Without Yukito noticing Toya lead them gradually away from the crowd and onto a disserted balcony.

(Much to the anger of the princesses.)

Slowly, as not to startle him Toya lifted Yukito's chin slightly.

"You know what would make this my best birthday ever?" Toya whispered into Yukito's ear.

"Wh-at?" Yukito answered breathlessly.

Toya smiled at his reaction and pressed Yukito closer to himself.

"A kiss from someone I love dearly."

Without another word Toya slowly brought his lips down to Yukito's and pressed ever so gently against them. In response Yukito wrapped his arms around the prince's neck and kissed back just as eagerly. It took all he had not to faint right there and then as he felt Toya's lips touch his.

Yukito was in his own little blissful world until he heard a small click and felt the necklace slip off his neck. He grasped and broke the kiss, reaching for his neckline in a desperate search for the charm.

"Looking for something?" Toya whispered, not surprised by Yukito frantic search as he held the charm in his outstretched hand. Yukito looked at him startled.

"You knew it was me?! He gasped, horrified.

Toya smiled sadly in response.

"Yukito, why did you try and hide yourself from me? Why did you pretend to be a girl?"

Yukito looked down, embarrassed and ashamed at what he had done.

He took in a deep breathe and readied himself for what was sure to be his last conversation with his love.

"I want you to see me as more then a best friend." Yukito confessed.

"I wanted you to think I was a girl so I could be closer to you then a friend. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to deceive you……I wanted just once for you to look at me like Sakura looks at Syaoran."

Toya gave a frustrated sigh as he looked meaningfully at Yukito.

"Yuki why do you think I kissed you?"

Yukito turned his head, still not looking at the prince.

"Because you thought I was a girl."

Toya reached out and grabbed Yukito's shoulders.

"Yuki, Illusion charms don't affect me as they do others! I knew from the start it was you!"

"Then why?" Yukito asked confused, not daring to let any hope in.

Toya smiled briefly at how cute Yukito looked when he was confused and prayed he could say how he felt without ruining everything.

"Yuki, I've always looked at you that way! You don't have to be a girl or someone different! When I was kissing you I wasn't thinking about a girl named Ayumi. I was thinking of the person I love. I was thinking of you Yuki. Just the way you are."

Yukito's eyes shone like stars as his smile glowed in the faint darkness.

"Really Toya, you don't mind that I can't have children?"

Toya wrapped his hands around Yukito's tightly, delighted by the younger boys obvious happiness.

"Yuki, all I care about is you; I don't need children to make me happy. Besides I'm sure Sakura and the Brat will have a couple of kids."

All Yukito could do right then was wrap his arms around his love's neck and bury his face into the elder's chest.

" I love you Toya." He whispered just loud enough for Toya to hear him.

Toya wrapped his arms around Yukito's slim waist and held him tightly, as though afraid if he let go he would wake up to find this all a dream.

"I love you too Yuki."

The king of Clow watched in the shadows as his son and Yukito kissed on the moonlit balcony.

Things had gone just as planned. He knew his son wouldn't be affected by the charms power, but that it would give Yukito more courage. Now that his son and daughter were with their precious person he knew his job was done.

What he had started the fates would continue.

It was time to return to his soulmate. Time to trust in hitsuzen.

Please forgive me for taking so long! I know I promised, but between being grounded and writers block I just haven't had the time! I tried to make this one extra special for Thunder-Phoenix and everyone that reviewed the last three chapters! I hope you all liked it! I might just add one more little bonus chapter if I get a few more reviews. I think the king left Yukito and Toya a little something.

Yours truly,
