Jaiden lay perched on the hood of Sakura's trailer. It was a large one with two bedrooms. Sakura's had a window on her ceiling, but she wasn't in her room. Jaiden could hear her father yelling a lot and her mother trying to calm him down. He couldn't help but flinch whenever he heard a fist or palm connect with one of the girls. He wanted to rescue them badly. Maybe after a week or two of work he could at least rescue Sakura. What he really wanted was to kill her father but she wouldn't let him. He looked in Sakura's room to see if she was there. He managed to look in just in time to see her enter.
She was hiding as far as Jaiden could tell. She pulled out her diary from a hold she had cut in the bottom of her bed. She was just looking at the things Jaiden had written. Then just as she was about to curl up in her bed and cry herself to sleep when Jaiden lightly tapped the window. Sakura looked up shocked by his visit. He had said a few days. A smile flickered on her lips as she opened the window for him to come in.
She gasped when she saw him in full, causing Jaiden to look at himself. He hadn't noticed while he was cleaning up how bad he looked. He had bled through the wrap on his left arm and cuts and bruises covered his body. He looked like a right mess.
"I'll be ok I've had worse I didn't even turn the bathwater red."
She nodded but embraced him tight anyway.
Jaiden ran his fingers through her hair. "What about you are you ok?"
Sakura shook her head. This was unusual for her.
"What's wrong?"
Sakura communicated that her she was worried about her mother being beaten to death.
"That's not going to happen. Not so long as I can help it."
She then pounded her fist on her hand and then made the universal sign for sleeping followed by more beating her fist on her palm.
"He knocked her out and is still beating her?" Jaiden guessed.
Sakura nodded.
"I'll fetch her."
Jaiden cracked open the door and stepped out to see what exactly was going on. Sakura's mother was lying in on the floor in front of her husband, who was periodically kicking her and saying, "get me a beer!" Afterwards he would completely forget her for a short bit till he tried to drink his empty beer.
During one of these intervals Jaiden took Sakura's mother and then gave the father another beer. He dragged Sakura's mother into her bedroom and returned to Sakura. He was deeply worried about what he had seen. So much so that he finally said
"You know I love to kill right?"
Sakura nodded.
"Then I'm sure you've worried what kind of father I might be."
She nodded again.
"I may not end up being the best father but I will never be that." He said finitely "Ever."
She came over and pushed on his forhead.
"What?"
She then communicated that she already knew that much.
"Thanks for having faith in me like that." Then he noticed a black eye forming on Sakura's face.
"hey your eye, do you have any ice?"
Sakura shook her head but dragged Jaiden onto her bead. She kissed Jaiden and held him tight as they lay there. She wanted him to stay and never leave her. Jaiden knew what she wanted and entertained such an idea until dinnertime came around.
"I can't stay forever." He said
She held him tighter.
"If your father catches us you'll get beaten even worse."
Using her hand as scales Sakura communicated to Jaiden that his company made it worthwhile to her.
"But not to me." He said "Even I'm not that selfish"
She grasped him as tight as she could with a tear in her eye.
"Fine but I'm getting dinner first."
Jaiden returned an hour later with a three doggy boxes full of hot food. "Has your mother woken?"
Sakura nodded. "Then the third box is for her." Jaiden said handing it to Sakura. "Go ahead and take it to her now." Sakura snuck it to her mom and was back in a jiffy.
Jaiden handed her, her meal. It was just some ramen that Shizuku had made but being Shizuku the only thing that came from the original package was the noodles themselves.
After eating Jaiden lay on the bed staring at the ceiling for a while. He turned his head to see Sakura writing in her journal. She was already on her second page. After she finished she began her homework during which she sat in Jaiden's lap. When time for sleep finally came around she was more than willing to undress in front of Jaiden which he hadn't expected.
He had never seen her naked before. Her body was covered in bruises. Jaiden looked away disturbed by what he saw. However Sakura sat beside him leaning on him till he looked again. Despite the bruises she was very pretty. Jaiden then undressed except for his pants. He wasn't going to strip to his underwear like her.
Sakura looked at her lovers own scars before pulling back the covers inviting him into bed. When he lay next to her she touched where his cat ear where when he had them. Jaiden understood the request and his ears and tail came out. As they lay there Sakura encouraged Jaiden's hand to some interesting places.
The following part is rated MA I will not be writing it since I want this to remain rated T. However I may have to make it rated M anyway just for the scene leading up to this.
