It's why I didn't put anything into the freezer. [And why a lot of the stuff he made... kind of spoiled. He didn't freeze anything, hoping that Yuki would suddenly come back and be hungry.]

[He squeezes Yuki's hand as they make their way into the kitchen. Touya even pulls out the various containers one-handed. Living alone with Yuki was great, they could hold hands in the kitchen.]

[winged_moon]

[They certainly can. Although this puts Yukito in mind of the event back in February and certain behaviors they engaged in then... and with a mischievous little grin he reaches over with his free hand and gently slides his fingers through the feathers of Touya's closest wing.]

[guardiancomplex.livejournal.com]

[Yuki's lucky Touya bought such good containers--because he drops one the second he feels fingers running through his wings. Both startled and pleased by the action, he blushes and picks up the dropped tupperware with the salmon in it.]

Unfair, getting me when I'm trying to feed you.

[winged_moon]

Oh, are there rules now?

[Yukito laughs softly, brushing his fingers across the tips of the feathers teasingly.]

The food wasn't hurt at all.

[guardiancomplex.livejournal.com]

Yeah, you just made every nerve in my body jump. That should be against some rule somewhere. [He frowns, wing flicking slightly against Yuki's fingers in reaction to the brush.]

Unless I'm allowed to attack your wings whenever I like too.

[winged_moon]

Did I? Hmm.

[Yukito leans against the counter with a thoughtful expression, not-so-coincidentally angled so that he's facing with his wings away from Touya.]

Was it a good thing or a bad thing?

[guardiancomplex.livejournal.com]

[He sees what you did there, Yuki. Well, he can't stay safe forever. There was always when Yuki was getting seconds. Or when he was asleep. Or when he was brushing his teeth in the morning...]

...no comment. [Obviously Touya can't admit that he liked it. If Yuki knew that, there would be more. A lot more. And Touya wouldn't be responsible for his actions if he was completely overwhelmed by preening.]

[winged_moon]

Oh, no? Nothing at all?

[Yukito grins ever so innocently, folding his arms across his chest as though to prove that he's going to let Touya make food in peace.]

You had to have some kind of opinion. And I wouldn't want to do something that upset you....

[guardiancomplex.livejournal.com]

[Touya empties the leftovers onto a couple plates and turns on the oven. Once he's done that, he turns to Yuki with a flat look on his face.]

Look at me. Do I look upset? Maybe upset that you can push my buttons so easily. [He muttered, frowning--it looked more like a pout, though.]

[winged_moon]

[Yukito takes a step closer, unfolding his arms and lifting one hand to touch Touya's cheek.]

I've known you for a while, you know.

[guardiancomplex.livejournal.com]

Yeah... [Touya finally cracks a smile and puts his hand over Yuki's.] I'll always tell you the truth, even if I don't think it's something you want to hear. I spent weeks trying to tell you something I don't think you wanted to face.

[winged_moon]

I know. And you kept trying, because I needed to hear it.

[He smiles in return, warm and fond and a little amused as well.]

But what do you want, Touya?

[guardiancomplex.livejournal.com]

[Touya is quiet for a moment while he thinks about what to say. It's nerve-wracking, being this honest about things that normally weren't really discussed. Or at least, nobody talked about them in public.]

I like it when we touch or hold each other. I thought about it a lot in the past few weeks. [He brings his eyebrows together slightly in concern.] Is that no good?

[winged_moon]

I think it's very good.

[Yukito takes another step, moving in until he can't get any closer still.]

I like it, as well. I like to be reminded that you're here, and real.

[guardiancomplex.livejournal.com]

[Touya sighs and wraps his arms around Yuki's shoulders and pulls him close.] I know we've been together for almost a year, but I still wonder if one day I'm going to do or say something dumb. And then you'll be gone.

That's just me worrying too much again though, right?

[winged_moon]

Yes.

[And Yukito sounds quite certain of it, as the response is immediate and quite firm. He quite willingly leans in closer, resting his head against Touya's shoulder and sliding his arms around him in return.]

I'm not going anywhere. No matter what, my feelings won't change.

[guardiancomplex.livejournal.com]

[Touya rests his head on top of Yuki's and sighs heavily, closing his eyes and savoring the moment.]

You're not going to tell me one day out of the blue that we should break up?

[winged_moon]

I can't imagine a reason why I would ever want to do that.

[Yukito does the same for a moment, but then shifts slightly to brush his lips across Touya's throat, so temptingly close as it is.]

[guardiancomplex.livejournal.com]

When I was dating Kaho I thought the same--that there wasn't a reason why we should break up. But then one day she just said I was meant for someone else and that we were done. [He plays idly with the hair at the back of Yuki's neck in response to the kiss.] I think she was talking about you. But you're tricky too, who knows what you'll say to me next. [He's teasing, mostly.]

[winged_moon]

Hm, so you were meant for me? I think I like that thought.

[He gives a light, involuntary shiver that extends to the tips of his wings, and laughs quietly.]

Sometimes I think you're as much a part of me as Yue-san is.

[guardiancomplex.livejournal.com]

...I like the thought too. [He smiles softly, stroking the back of Yuki's head gently, almost reverently. The last time Touya had talked to Kaho, what she had said did suggest that Touya was where he was supposed to be. But so much weird stuff happened around Sakura, it worried him that maybe he wasn't done no matter how right he felt with Yuki.]

This last week, it felt like you both were a part of me too. Seeing what Yue was like before everything with Clow wasn't the same as when we were all living together. I was sad you weren't there, and I was sad that Yue was looking for something that would never appear. I felt a little sick all the time, like something was out of balance.

[winged_moon]

I'm especially glad to be back, then. It feels like... everything's right again.

[Even if they aren't at home, it still feels like home when Touya is there, and that's enough for him. Yukito falls silent for a moment as he considers, then a little hesitantly brings up a subject he'd never really brought up before.]

Touya? What about you and Yue-san?

[guardiancomplex.livejournal.com]

[Touya blinks, feeling a little like he's been caught cheating or something akin to it. He pulls back a little so he can look at Yuki's face while they talk.]

What about me and Yue?

[winged_moon]

[Yukito smiles, lifting a hand to rest it gently against Touya's cheek.]

You feel like Yue-san is a part of you, too?

[guardiancomplex.livejournal.com]

[Oh. Touya thought he was going to be asked a much harder question. It's still one he has to think about for a moment, but it's less difficult then say, asking if Touya liked being around Yue all the time.]

...Sometimes. And sometimes I feel like we're missing one another. As though we're in sync and then suddenly I don't know what he's thinking.
