Log;

Yukito could eat a lot, a fact of which Clow was of course intensely aware. So, when he had decided to return Touya's favor of bringing him food when he was sick, he brought enough for Yukito as well - in other words, enough to feed a small army. Of course, this wouldn't have been a big deal except that he preferred to walk most places rather than use magic to get around, so by the time he got to the front door of what he now thought of as the Kinomoto residence his cheeks were flushed and he felt as thought there might be a tiny bit of steam coming off of him. He knocked three times, the sound slightly muffled by his gloves, and then leaned against one of the poles holding up the porch roof to catch more of the crisp winter air.

Touya could no longer feel strange presences, but the sound of wind and the change in Yuki's tone was enough to alert him to the truth: Yue was here now. He'd upset Yuki that much.

Touya crept into the doorway, just observing the two of them wordlessly.

"He didn't," Clow agreed, saying it more for Yue's sake than for his own. And then he was being leaned on and had no choice but to shift his weight to maintain his balance, wrapping one arm around him and stroking his long, white hair with the other hand. After a few moments, he sighed softly - alright, Yue, you've convinced him to stay if that's what you were trying to do. It didn't even bother him when he noticed Touya standing over there, the act of holding Yue calmed him that much.

It was a given that Yue could sense Touya. After all, the power he held had once belonged to the boy. Still, however, he gave no indication that he could tell the brunette was there at all.

To put it simply, nothing else mattered right now. He had missed Clow's touch, his fragrance, his presence, his smile, his.... everything. The boy didn't blush, but a quick shiver ran down his spine. Oh, how he'd missed his master. His creator. When Yue closed his eyes, it almost felt like nothing had changed. Like time hadn't progressed.

And without a sound, the being's eyes were drawn to the floor as he rested his head against Clow.

[ooc: ....N-No, I didn't fall asleep yesterday! orz S-sorry!]

Clow had missed Yue for some of those exact reasons, and it felt so good just to hold him right now. He buried his face in Yue's hair and closed his eyes and it truly was almost as if nothing had changed, as if they'd be together forever.

After a few moments he gave a quiet and gentle sigh, lifting his head again. This couldn't last forever, and hence there was a tugging sense of urgency at the back of Clow's mind as though he needed to say or do something - not immediately, but at some point before everyone disappeared. Might as well be now. He tilted Yue's chin up tenderly with one hand and looked into striking cold blue eyes that were so much like his own, and parted his lips as if he was about to say something.

But he couldn't. He couldn't even admit to himself that he loved Yue, so how could he possibly say it?

So, he had to do something instead.

All the curse did this time was lower his inhibitions a little in the kissing department. It's not as if he didn't realize what he was doing or think it through, but his fears about it being outright wrong were erased for once as he melted into his former moon guardian and the taste of sugar was replaced by the taste of Yue's mouth as his number one favorite flavor. It took him a few moments to remember that Touya was still standing right there, and even then he didn't stop.

Touya didn't say anything. In fact, he didn't make a sound except for turning on one slippered heel and walking slowly back to the bedroom. He stretched out on the bed over the covers, next to the warmth Yuki had been inhabiting minutes before. He covered his eyes with his arm and tried to think of anything but what just happened - unsuccessfully.

It had been a while since Yue had openly expressed his emotions. His eyes widened and a wave of shock crossed his face, contorting the apathetic expression that always seemed to linger about his features.

Despite Yue's tenacious longing, he was unable to act upon it or even muster a decent reaction. Clow had this effect on him. He always had. And yet it was so.... addicting. There was simply no other way to describe it.

Eventually, the kiss would have to end and Clow hadn't actually planned that far until a second before he pulled away. He knew that he probably shouldn't have done that, but did he regret it? It was hard to say. He simply looked down again into Yue's eyes, trying to gauge his reaction, and this time he did blush - just a little.

Anyone who had ever seen Yue knew that his expression was almost exactly the same; Unlike his counterpart, he rarely smiled and rarely frowned. At the moment, however, the being simply couldn't maintain any coherent expression at all. His eyes were widened in shock as opposed to cold and icy, and if one looked closely enough, a faint tinge of rose was streaking his pale cheeks.

Yue said nothing and simply placed a hand over part of his cheek and mouth, completely averting Clow's gaze and trying to find his usual apathetic expression. This was so out of character for him, and he didn't want Clow of all people to realize his embarrassment.

Clow looked away and broke from the embrace. If Yue had been looking at him, he might have seen a somewhat ironic smile on his face. It was sort of a goodbye kiss, wasn't it?

"We should do something about Touya-san." The magician was staring at the place where the boy had been standing a moment ago, and despite his best efforts to distract himself and brush off the situation, he was unable to raise his voice above a whisper.

Yue swiftly turned his back and promptly went up the stairs. He didn't really want to speck to either Clow or Touya at the moment, for he had so little yet so much to say. His mind, however, soon had him knocking on the bedroom door. It was a gentle and soft knock, a noise that one would expect from Yukito rather than Yue.

It wasn't that he didn't want to speak, persay. He was simply lost for words.

"Yeah?" It was neither an invitation to come in nor an insistence to leave. He just acknowledged the presence. Touya could be heard shifting, sitting up on the bed.

The stirring as he rubbed his eyes with his sleeves probably wouldn't be noticed. "You want something?"

After a moment's hesitation (he thought he had caused quite enough trouble here already), Clow quietly closed the still-open door to the outside and silently followed Yue up the stairs. He would have been content to just quietly lurk in the shadows, until he remembered that Touya's words were a prompt to speak and that someone should say something and it might as well be him.

"Yes," Clow uttered, approaching the door. "... Just you."

He usually tried not to say things like that; it was just safer to be more impersonal and just ask if Touya was okay or whatever, but... it seemed like things would go better if Touya could actually tell that he was sincere rather than having to take it on faith.

"The hell do you two need me for, huh?" Touya was utterly quiet, his hurt didn't so much as waver his voice. Instead, he just sounded exhausted. Defeated.

"Yukito is worried."

Yue clearly hadn't put much thought into what he wanted to say. After all, if he had chosen not to speak, Touya wouldn't have known if he had already transformed back. It might've been easier to lure him out that way.

He would never admit it, but the feeling of guilt washed over him for a split second.

[ooc: This post right here? Yeah. S-sorry for the fail. orz]

With a sigh, Touya stood up and opened the door - checking it for offending sprouts first.

"Look. I don't have anything to say to either of you. I understand about you both... Yue-san. I understand how you feel."

His voice is gentle and subdued.

"Maybe it'd be better for you two spend some time together. I know it's been awhile."

Clow looks a bit distraught at hearing that and his way of carrying himself becomes more withdrawn. He isn't ready and it's frightening, but most of all he knows that it's doomed and it will ruin everything.

"No..." It was really hard to say this, and even harder without letting on that it would hurt even more to try to reach out and accept what's being offered. "No, Touya-san, it's better if nothing changes. Believe me."

Yue simply flinches. These words don't surprise him, yet.... they're definitely not what he wants to hear.

"...."

Upon returning, Yukito blinked and took in his surroundings.

"....What happened?"

"Nothing," Touya was quick to say. He was relieved to have Yuki back, but something in his stomach still felt cold and twisted. "Look... it was a curse. We should forget any of this happened."

Clow looked at the floor and simply nodded once, silent and solemn.

"... It's late," he said finally, and quietly, with an almost Yue-like directness. "I'm going home."

With that, he turned to leave. He just wanted to be alone at this point, but it wasn't anyone's fault that he was unhappy. Perhaps his own. So, he smiled a little and waved to the two of them. "Goodnight, both of you."
