Card Captor Sakura Fan Fiction ❯ Heavenly Little Bunny ❯ Chapter 4 ( Chapter 4 )
Chapter 4
Friday morning Sakura reminded Kero and Yue that she would be bringing company home. That meant that Kero couldn't come downstairs and Yue would have to dress in regular clothing if he wanted to come out. He decided to just spend the evening in his room.
That afternoon, Sakura met Celeste by the gate and together they walked to the Kinomoto household. When they arrived, in the driveway sat a very familiar car. She ran inside, Celeste following quietly behind, and called out, "Touya, where are you?"
From inside the kitchen, the voice of her older brother called out, "in here monster."
Sakura walked into the kitchen, her face set in a frown, and said, "I am not a monster." She then noticed Yukito and smiled brightly. "Hello Yukito. What brings you guys here?"
"Dad invited us for dinner. So, who's your friend?" Touya asked as he noticed a girl had followed Sakura into the house.
Sakura noticed that she was being rude and motioned for Celeste to step forward. "Celeste, this is my brother Touya and this is my I-wish-he-was-my-brother-instead-sometimes Yukito."
"It is a pleasure to meet you both." Celeste bowed slightly to each of the young men.
"You too," Touya said and, giving a slight glare to his little sister, turned back to the tea he had been making.
Yukito, ever the cheerful one, greeted Celeste with a bright smile and said, "it is a pleasure to meet you too."
Celeste couldn't help but smile back at the pale young man. Sakura then led her to the living room where they started their homework.
Touya, followed by Yukito, went upstairs and stopped when he came to the door of his old room. He knocked and waited for Yue to answer. When Yue opened the door, he stepped back and allowed his mistress' brother and his former false form to enter. Once they were inside he re-closed the door.
Touya took a seat in the desk chair while Yukito stayed standing just behind him, leaning on the desk. Yue returned to his seat on the bed, next to a book he had been reading.
Yue noticed that Touya seemed to be thinking hard about something and wanted to ask a question. Yue didn't want to wait any longer, so he decided to speak. "What is it?"
"Sakura brought a friend home and she seems to have this aura around her."
"Sakura and the others have been watching her." Yue said, knowing whom Touya was talking about.
"What do you mean others?" Touya asked with a suspicious look on his face.
"Shaoran and Eriol."
With that, Touya's eyes widened slightly and then narrowed as he sneered, "the brat is back." Yukito chuckled lightly as what he termed Touya's 'sister complex' came back. He hadn't seen it in quite a while, not since Touya had moved out.
"Anyway," Touya began, ignoring Yuki and speaking to Yue, "she's downstairs now and I was wondering if you'd come meet her."
Yue's face contorted to disgust until Touya added, "I know you hate to wear regular clothes, but if she is a danger to Sakura, you might find out something useful."
Yue thought for a minute and then sighed audibly, "fine." Touya and Yukito left while Yue opened the dreaded closet where there hung that awful clothing that humans liked to wear. He just didn't get it. He pulled out a pair of jeans and a dark blue shirt. As he dressed he thought to himself, "The things I do for my mistress."
Yue made his way downstairs and stepped into the dining room where Touya and Yukito were seated sipping tea. They looked up at his entrance and Touya motioned to a tray upon which sat some tea and cookies. "Why don't you take them a snack while they work on their homework."
Yue picked up the tray and Yukito rose and opened the door for him to enter the living room. He stepped into the room and saw his mistress and another girl seated at the table, hunched over books and writing furiously. Sakura looked up at his entrance and her eyes brightened in surprise and she smiled. She was always encouraging Yue to interact and go out more.
Celeste, noticing that someone else had entered the room, looked up from her work and was surprised to see a tall, pale man standing there. He walked over to the table and said, "I thought you would like a snack while you study."
"Thank you. Yue, this is my friend Celeste. Celeste, this is my good friend Yue." Sakura gestured while Yue set the tray upon the table. He then turned to the other girl and nodded slightly.
Celeste looked into his amethyst-silver eyes and grinned, "it is a pleasure to meet you Yue."
Yue looked away after a minute and made his way back into the dining room. He took a seat at the table and didn't notice that a moment ago Yukito had been sitting in Touya's lap. He sat there staring straight ahead until Touya asked him, "well?"
"There is something familiar about her."
Touya started at that and continued, "What do you mean? Do you know her?"
"No, her magic just seems familiar. I don't believe she is a threat." And with that, he stood and made his way back upstairs where he changed back into his robes.
