Red was the color for love, joy and prosperity in China. It was often used for good luck and for celebrations. And it was her favorite color.
She wore red when she first welcomed him into her home. Her scarlet dress with its low neck and high slit to show off her thigh accentuated her ivory skin; her very long black hair was pulled up in an elaborate bun. Warm reddish-brown eyes gazed at him shyly as he took off his shoes.
"You look beautiful, Yuuko." Clow smiled. He was wearing blue. The stars and the moon on his coat seemed to shine under the gentle moonlight. She could feel his hungry gaze on her. A blush spread across her cheeks. She turned around to lead him inside to hide her face. His gaze seemed to rake the back of her neck and she could feel it like a sensual caress. Feeling pleased, she slowed down to look back at him coyly.
"Why red?" He said casually. "We're not newlyweds."
"You don't need to get married to do this," Yuuko answered quietly as she opened the door to her bedroom. It was a luxurious love haven with deep red silk sheets and burning candles. The scent of roses assaulted him immediately. She smiled to herself as he entered the room, awed by her attention to detail and her preparations. Ah, she was a fool for love. She was driven mad by him. (This was a mistake. She was making a huge mistake. Losing that single precious thing was a fate worse than death. But she was not going to think about it! She was willing to risk anything for this!) She reveled in it.
When he lay her down among the red, red rose petals he whispered how she put the flowers to shame and how beautiful was the blush across her cheeks. She bit her lips hard enough to draw blood. She was a fool but she was not ashamed of it.
As he dressed later into a blue silk robe, he saw her staring at the small patch of red that was darker than any rose petal. Her expression was soft and almost melancholic. He kissed her temple tenderly. "Do you regret it?" he asked in his most honest and simple voice.
Yuuko shook her head. "It's all for magic. What's the best way to share our secrets but through a communion of bodies?"
"What of our hearts?" he murmured very softly "It was a coming together of hearts and souls. We did a very sacred act."
Yuuko allowed him to kiss her again. As his lips withdrew, she smiled at him. "Like I said, we don't need to be married to do it."
