Chapter Eighteen
Slowly heading home, the
two walked in silence as each faced their own problems, Syaoran’s thoughts on
Arthur, and if he would tell Yelan about the relationship between himself and
Eriol while Eriol thought of the coming trial and his father’s words of
‘already winning.’
Reaching the tall
building that held his apartment, Syaoran stopped at the stairs. Looking up to
the veranda he knew to be his, he sighed at the thought of what was still to
come today, Eriol stopped next to him, his own gaze on the same veranda.
“I really don’t want to do
this Syaoran” turning to the younger teen Syaoran nodded also seeing the dread
in going to the apartment.
“We could always runaway”
Syaoran suggested with a shrug as he looked to Eriol who replied with a sad
smile, “I’ve been doing that all my life and they always find me, for once I
want to do something where it’s a happy ending and I never see them again.”
Syaoran nodded in
understanding before turning back to the veranda “well shall we?” turning back
to Eriol he gestured to the entry of the apartment building with a wave of his
hand, taking a deep breath the darker-haired teen nodded as he walked ahead and
into the apartment building.
Reaching the door of his
apartment Syaoran stood outside, his forehead against the doorframe as Eriol
stood quietly behind him.
“He wont be here for at
least another three hours, and until then we can tell my mother and also
prepare ourselves” he said turning to Eriol.
The boy nodded “telling
your mother would probably be a good idea and even better if she doesn’t like
the idea” Syaoran frowned with the statement, Eriol smiled “if she is upset
abthe the whole thing she will call of the dinner, meaning I don’t have to put
up with seeing my father.”
Syaoran let out a small
chuckle as he saw the humour in the comment “well we
can only hope, but then we have another problem, if mother doesn’t approve of
us, then she will try to split us apart” Eriol’s eyes grew wide as the reality
of Yelan’s reaction to the news may mean to them.
“She….she couldn’t do
that….could she?” Syaoran gave a small smile as he stepped to the smaller teen
and wrapped his arms around him, brining him close to his body in a comforting
hug.
“No because I won’t let
her” he spoke just above a whisper as he closed his eyes and held the smaller
boy in his arms.
Pulling apart after a short
time, Syaoran turned back to the door, “okay, ready?” turning back to Eriol who
nodded in reply, “lets do this” nodding both boys walked up to the door.
Syaoran, opening it,
looking into the room he saw his sisters on the lounge watching some kind of
soap opera with a large box of tissues on the table in front of them, but he
didn’t see his mother.
“She’s not in the lounge
room” he spoke over his shoulder as he held the handle and continued to scan
the room in front of him, Eriol still in the hall way.
“And I know why” a voice
spoke behind him as he felt a hand tap on his back, turning to Eriol, Syaoran
looked at him with confusion, Eriol only looked to him then turned back towards
the elevator.
Syaoran following his
lovers gaze looked to the elevator, ten feet away from the elevator doors stood
his mother, Yelan, her gaze moving from Eriol to Syaoran in a continues
pattern, her form had stiffened in shock.
“M…mother” Syaoran
stepped forward, fear building with what she may have heard, the lady’s gaze
stopped on Syaoran, her eyes narrowing as she frowned.
“Syaoran Li, is this true?
Are ‘you’ having a relationship with ‘this boy’?” she almost spat the words as
she pointed to Eriol with an accusing finger.
Syaoran turned to Eriol who
was now looking pained at Yelan’s words, turning back to his mother he frowned,
“yes mother I am, and I have been for a few weeks now” the lady’s frown
deepened as she looked to Eriol as if it were all his fault.
Turning back to Syaoran she
glared to the boy, “Syaoran, I do not except this kind of ‘relationship’” her
eyes flickered back to Eriol who hadn’t broken his watch of the lady.
Feeling a hand on his
shoulder Eriol turned around to see four girls standing behind him, their eyes
showing comfort as they looked back to their mother.
“Mother we…”
Yelan cut Feimei off “you all knew about this?” the girls nodded hesitatingly,
their mother nodded as she turned back to Syaoran, “and yet you refused to tell
me?” she spoke as her anger built, Syaoran frowned, “I didn’t tell you because
I knew ‘this’ is how you would react” the grip on Eriol’s shoulder tightened as
the girl’s heard the talk back to their mother, knowing she wouldn’t take it
kindly.
“You dare to talk to me
like that, I thought I brought you up better, I didn’t teach you our family
arts and knowledge ‘just’ so you could go and have a relationship wanotanother
‘male’” she spoke her voice now raising.
“Mother can we take this
ins?” o?” one of the girls bravely asked as she cringed under her mother’s
raised voice.
Yelan turned to the girls
that surrounded Eriol, “I am disappointed in you all, I should have been told
of this…this ‘relationship’” Syaoran frowned at his motherrds.rds.
“You didn’t react to
Sakura’s relationship like this…” the lady cut him off with a raised hand,
“that’s because I saw the relationship coming when the girls had visited us,
but I didn’t expect ‘this’ of my son, my only son, the one who is to carry on
our family line. I didn’t expect him to throw away his duty to the family, his honour and dignity”
Syaoran’s brows creased as
he listened to the words, his body shook slightly at his mother’s eyes burning
into his own.
“And I certainly didn’t
expect you to throw all that away for another boy” her gaze looked to Eriol
who’s dropped to the floor not wishing to make eye contact.
Syaoran swallowed the small
lump in his throat as he tried to control his body from the violent shakes that
ran through his back when the words hit his ears and his mother’s eyes burned
into him.
“Choose Syaoran, I will
forgive you and take you back into the family ‘if’ you brake this relationship
off I will appoint you leader of the clan for when I step down, that is after
all what you strive for, you have wished for all your life” his mother looked
to him her chin raising, he heard a gasp come from behind him as Eriol heard
the mother’s bargain.
“A…and if
I wish to stay with Eriol?” Syaoran asked, his heart beating faster as the women’s eyes narrowed
onto him, “if you choose to stay with Eriol, I will banish you from our clan
and deny any relation to you, I will strip you of all titles and will no longer
support you in any time of need” she spoke her face becoming hard as she placed
her son in the spot light between his love of Eriol and family.
“What will it be Syaoran? A
family or a relationship that may not last?” she spoke her voice commanding for
an answer, Syaoran looked to Eriol who now looked fearful to him turning back
to his mother he took a step forward his eyes keeping on hers.
He spoke “I choose a life
with Eriol” as soon as the words past his lips Syaoran felt a wave of relief
come over him, over all his mother’s threats of leaving him alone, he choose a
love life in which he didn’t know how long would last for, a life he would
rather be living, he thought with a smile, I would rather be with Eriol then a
family full of expectations.
The dark eyes of his mother
narrowed “and this is your final decision. Living a life with a boy whom you
have only met to your family and friends whom you have known longer?” Syaoran
nodded as he held his gaze with hers, not daring to break it, no matter how
much he wanted to.
“It is” Yelan nodded her
gaze looking back to Eriol whom watched Syaoran, “he has chosen you over family
and duty, he has thrown his only known life away for you and only you,
everything he knows and those he loves, for you, do you wish for him to do this?
Will you show him the same devotion and love by being with him?” she asked her
eyes burning into Eriol’s.
Eriol bit his lower lip not
liking the lady’s attention on him, her question’s burning at his heart, “I
love Syaoran with all my heart, though I don’t like him throwing away his
family and duty for meut Iut I will accept it for its his choice not mine, and
for your last question, yes, always and forever.”
Eriol finished as he took a
stepped up next to Syaoran, his eyes meeting his love’s for a short time before
bretureturned to Yelan.
Surprising all she nodded,
her face softening and her body relaxing, “then I give you both my blessing”
she spoke her gaze moving to the boys.
Syaoran frowned slightly in
confusion, “does….does this mean we…we have your consent?” Syaoran asked as he
studied his mother, Yelan nodded a small smile creeping onto her lips, “yes
Syaoran, you have mine and all of the clan’s consent and blessing for a long
and happy relationship.”
Eriol and Syaoran looked to
each other in bewilderment, Yelan nodded before she walked past the two boys,
disappeared into the apartment; both boys looked to each other still in shock.
“What…what just happened
there?iol iol asked as he studied Syaoran for the answer, Syaoran shrugged as his
gaze moved back to the opened door, “I don’t know….” The four girls shrugged as
both boys looked to them for the answer, soon all walked to the door, peeking
in they saw Yelan at the oven placing the kettle on the hot plate.
Walking into the apartment,
Eriol close by his side and the girls following Syaoran, they walked around to
the counter.
“Mother?” Syaoran asked with uncertainty,
Yelan turned to him, “yes?” Syaoran shook his head.
“I don’t understand…you
were angry at me for being with Eriol and then all of a sudden you accepted
it?” Yelan shook her head “no, I accepted it right away, I don’t have any
problems with you being with Eriol, his a kind boy who will stay devoted to you
through even the rough times, as his already shown me” she said smiling to
Eriol as he softly blushed.
Syaoran’s eyes widened,
“you…you mean you were testing us?” Yelan nodded as if it were obvious “yes I
tested lov love for each other, and from what I saw you both past. Your love
is strong and that’s what I wanted to make sure about” she finished as she
turned back to the kettle as it started to whistle.
“So…everyths oks okay?”
Sheifa asked as she raised her hand, Syaoran turned back to her and rolled his
eyes, “of course that means everything’s okay” shaking his head he turned back
to Eriol, grabbing the boys hand he pulled him out from the small crowed and
dragged him to the bedroom.
Pushing Eriol into the
bedroom, Syaoran steeped in closing the door behind him, “that I didn’t see
coming” he spoke as he smiled to Eriol who now sat on the bed nodding, “I
know…but it’s a good thing…right?” Syaoran nodded as he laughed, moving forward
he stood between Eriol’s knees.
Looking down to the boy he
smiled “yes it’s a good thing, it means my mum has nothing against us, and we
are free to stay together with my mothers consent” Eriol smiled as what had
happened was translated to him, “well then what should we do to celebrate?”
Syaoran smiled as he bit
his lower lip, his body swaying from side to side so he knocked both of Eriol’s
knees continuously “doesn’t bother me, whatever” he said stopping his body as
he looked down to Eriol with a smile.
The young teen smiled as he
shook his head, “does your mind ever leave the gutter?” Syaoran placed both his
h on on Eriol’s shoulder’s as he slowly pushed him down onto the bed, “nope”
Eriol smiled at the reply; his back now sank into the thick quilts that covered
the bed.
Sya cli climbed atop of the
younger teen, his knees now straddled Eriol’s hips as he smiled down at him.
Syaoran’s hands moved softly across his lover’s chest until running down to his
the arms that lay limply at Eriol’s sides, gripping them by the wrist’s he
pulled them above the youths head.
Arching a brow the
dark-haired teen smirked, Syaoran smiling back, moved his position slightly
allowing himself easy accesses to the awaiting lips.
“Syaoran, Eriol you two
have better be coming out to help with dinner, if you don’t remember we ‘are’
having a guest tonight” a voice spoke behind the door as the person knocked
lightly making sure she had grabbed their attention.
Sighing Syaoran broke the
kiss off, his eyes returning to Eriol’s as he watched them open, smiling Eriol
pushed himself up to place a light peck onto Syaoran’s lips.
“Our last obstacle to get
through for today” Eriol spoke sighing as he lay back down onto the bed,
Syaoran still only centimetres away from his face.
Nodding Syaoran placed his
forehead lightly on Eriol’s, as he closed his eyes, “this is one busy day”
Eriol replied with a tired moan of agreement.
Opening his eyes Syaoran
looked to his lover whose eyes were closed “you awake?” another moan was heard
this time quieter, Syaoran smiled as he pressed his lips once again to the
other teens pulling away he smiled down to the now sleeping boy, “I love you”
once again a small moan sounded from the young teen that could barely be heard.
Syaoran smiled as he pushed
himself of the boy, turning as the door opened, Syaoran saw Fanren stand and
look to the two boys, first the sleeping form of Eriol then the frowning
Syaoran.
“What you do to him?” she
asked as she stepped further into the room ignoring her brothers glares as she
leaned over the sleeping teen, “wow his cute when he sleeps” she looked to
Syaoran with a smile.
“Anyway, mum wants everyone
to start getting ready for Eriol’s father….should we wake Eriol?” Syaoran shook
his head, “no, I’ll wake him up later, let him sleep for now his had a busy
day” the girl nodded as she straightened up and walked back to the door.
“Well you better get out
here and start helping” turning she left, leaving the door ajar, Syaoran turned
back to Eriol and smiled.
Leaning over with one hand
on the bed supporting him above Eriol, Syaoran placed a light kiss on the teens
parted lips pulling back he smiled as he watched Eriol slightly frown and roll
onto his side.
Placing one hand under
Eriol’s knees and the other behind his back, Syaoran lifted the young boy,
using one foot to balanced he pushed back the blankets of the bed with the
other, placing Eriol back onto the bed he pulled the covers over the boy,
placing one final kiss on his forehead Syaoran turned and left the room,
closing the door quietly behind him.
~~~
A knock on the door sounded
the arrival of the ‘guest’ Syaoran being sent by his mother to answer it opened
the door and looked to the man that stood in front of them.
Arthur smiled down at the
teen, “am I allowed in?” he asked as he raised an eye brow after waiting a
short while, Syaoran opened his mouth to reply the sentence that was running
through his head, basically telling the man to go get stuffed, but a voice
sounded behind them.
“Of course Mister
Hiiragizawa” Yelan appeared behind Syaoran with a small smile; “please come in”
she spoke as she nodded to Syaoran to step aside.
Doing so, the boy watched
with dagger glares as the man stepped into his apartment, “nice place you have
here” Arthur spoke; his eyes scanned the room as he nodded in satisfaction on
what he saw.
“Thanks” Syaoran spoke
behind the man with gritted teeth; Arthur nodded as he moved further into the
apartment.
“Ahhh
and there’s my boy” he spoke with open arms as if expecting the boy to go
running into his arms, like a five year old would do when seeing their father
back from a long journey.
Eriol stood at the entrance
of the hallway, the hand he was using to rub the sleep from his eyes frozen as
he saw his father, the man smiled to him, his arms still wide as he stepped
towards the boy.
Enfolding his arms around
the youths form, he pulled Eriol into a tight hug brining the boy’s feet off
the ground as he lifted him up into the air.
Eriol’s eyes had widened as
he looked to his father, all signs of tiredness now vanished.
Arthur smiled to him as he
placed Eriol’s feet back onto the ground and stepping away from him; Syaoran
looked to the Arthur with his son in shock, also not expecting the father do
use that actio:p>o:p>
Pulling Eriol back at arms
length the man’s eyes scanned him up and down causing the hairs on Eriol’s neck
to stand on end, Arthur pulled his son into another tight hung.
Looking over his fathers
shoulder as he was embraced in another hug, Eriol looked over to Syaoran with a
glaring gaze, the older boy could only give him an apologetic smile as his
actions asked for forgiveness in not waking the teen up sooner.
Eriol’s glare didn’t falter
showing his partner there was ‘no’ forgiveness, pulling away again Arthur
smiled to his son, letting him go he turned back to Yelan, “well I hope I
haven’t caused to much trouble” Yelan shook her head as she gestured for the
man to follow her, he did so, brushing past Syaoran he smiled to him.
Syaoran ignoring the smile
kept his eyes on Eriol, who now watched his father leave with Yelan into the
kitchen.
Walking up to the boy,
Syaoran bit his lower lip, “I’m so sorry Eriol I didn’t think he would be
coming for another half hour…I wanted to let you sleep, I’m sorry, do you
forgive me?”
Eriol looked back to the
boy and offered a weak smile “yes your forgiven…I just didn’t expect him to be
here” Eriol spoke as he looked to Syaoran, the older teen nodded as he looked
over his shoulder when hearing Yelan call them to sit at the large table they
had set up for dinner.
