Angie:Sorry the last chapter kinda sucked but hey, chapter 10 is here =D
Deidara and Sakura: Please Read and Review! un!
Deidara turned and smiled at me. I could see it in his eyes. They said I was free.
Time skip- 1 month.
Deidaras P.O.V.
The weeks went by shockingly fast. Its already been a month. No sign of Sakuras father anywhere besides outside of our high school. He would try to look for her, but lucky us, we have her hoodie pulled up and she got new clothes, so he couldnt recognize her.
We dont have to worry much about the police finding her. From what Sakura tells me, hes more likely to look for her himself than get the police involved since getting the police involved might give Sakura the chance to get away from him once and for all. I learned that the cops have dealt with him before. His name is Doji Haruno, and was sent to jail numerous times in the past for multiple felony's, but non for child abuse, since Sakura never told anyone.
Throughout the month weve lived together, our friendship grew and grew to the point where we are almost inseparable. Sakura has improved greatly. She gained a little bit more of her weight back, since ive been making her eat. Shes still very underweight, but a little gain is better than non.
Her true personality has been showing more too. Shes been a little more talkative and she has been smiling more, although shes still very quiet and shy.
Sakura has been having a few difficulties though. Shes been having nightmares lately. She would wake up screaming or crying. I would hear her and go in to comfort her. Most of the time we end up falling asleep together on my bed. Whenever I asked her what she was dreaming about, she would say her father finding her. The nightmares have been slowing down recently, but they still happen. It still hurts me when I think about her living the way she did.
I get scared of leaving her alone after school and night though. I have to work, and she understands that, but I feel as if im abandoning her. It also scares me that something might happen to her while im gone. I know I worry, but hey, you would be too if you had to hide a girl from her dangerous father. Either way, Doji Haruno doesnt know where Sakura is, and we both hope he never will.
It was Friday in May. School was just about over. Only about another month. Sakura was getting anxious about it. I was too. We would hurry up after school and get her home before her father saw her. Hes been trying to find her. When I work after school I would see him stumbling around the mall where I worked. I worked in Hot Topic. He came in one day last week showing around a picture of Sakura. The picture was old. It looked like Sakura was about ten when that picture was taken.
What a moron..
We walked into the house, after another walk from school. Sakura pulled the hoodie off of her head. Her face was a bright pink because of the heat. I went to the kitchen to get her a glass of water.
I came out of the kitchen and handed it to her.
"One more month Saku un.." I said.
"Yeah.." Sakura said, taking a sip. "Im surprised he hasnt found me yet."
"Well he isnt the brightest lightbulb in the box un.." I commented. Sakura smiled. It was such a pretty sight.
I saw Sakura look out the window and sigh. I felt my heart drop. School and home, school and home. That was the only time Sakura was allowed out, even before she came here, and im doing nothing but keeping it that way.
"wanna go see a movie tonight un?" I asked, not turned to me, face surprised.
"Dei..Are you sure thats a good idea?" She asked slowly.
"Yeah un..Ill be with you. And well go later tonight. I dont think your father will be out late looking for you in the dark un." I said. Sakuras smile grew bigger and brighter. Thank goodness I was leaning against the wall to support myself.
"When I get off work tonight, ill come and get you un" I said, getting off the wall to walk to my room to get dressed. When I emerged, Sakura was sitting on the couch, staring out the window, a smile still on her face.
I stopped in mid step and stared. The sun was just about to set, which made the glow of sunset hit Sakuras face, and surround her like a halo. Her eyes were so green I almost fell over. Sakura must have caught me staring and looked over. She smiled at me. And I smiled back.
I went to the coat rack and grabbed my hoodie. "Im gonna leave now Saku un.." I said, turning to wave.
"Bye Dei..Ill see you when you get back.." Sakura said smiling.
"Yeah un.. Be careful" I said as I walked out the door, anxious for work to be over already.
Sakuras P.O.V.
As Deidara works I decided to spend my time going through my new wardrobe, thanks to Deidara, to decide what to wear tonight. I looked between all of my outfits, tried some stuff on to see what would look best, but then I finally settled on an outfit.
After my selection, I decided to eat some cereal for a snack, and think about the night ahead. Ive never gone to a movie theater, so it was really exciting. After my cereal, I decided to go and take a shower. I jumped in and made sure not one part of me wasnt squeaky clean.
When I got out I blow dried my hair, and used the hair curler Deidara bought me. I think he got excited to buy me things... I thought as I curled my long hair into the curler. After the ends of my hair was curled I went to Deidaras room to get dressed.
The outfit consisted of a form fitting spring green v-neck flowy blouse, and a black skirt that goes down to my knees. For shoes I put on some black wedge flip flops that gave me about 3 more inches of height. Deidara would still be much taller since he was 6 4.
After my clothes were on, I did some make up. I didnt put much on. I just put on some eyeliner, with green eye shadow and some lip gloss. I took one look in the mirror and smiled. I never looked this pretty. I hope Deidara would like it. I stopped myself and blushed. Im being silly..Deidara wouldnt care what I looked like..He doesnt like me anymore then just a friend..I told myself.
I left the bathroom and went to go sit on the couch. continuously looking at the clock for when Deidara got home.
Deidaras P.O.V.
The clock struck 9. It was time to leave! I quickly got out from behind the counter and grabbed myself.
"Im leaving for the night un!" I called from behind as I rushed out the door and toward my house.
As I rushed out of the mall and toward my house, I noticed a group of guys. They were all about my age with long black cloaks with red clouds on them. They were just sitting there and watching me. I made eye contact with one in particular. He had longish black hair and had bags under his eyes. Choosing to redirect my focus, I quickly forgot about them and continued my way toward the house.
"Saku un! Im home!" Deidara called out.
"Im in here Dei!" I heard her call from inside our room.
I quickly made my way to the room and had to stop. My mouth had to have dropped. Sakura was by far, the most beautiful girl I have ever laid eyes on.
Her hair was curled at the ends of her long pink hair. Her make up was gorgeous and her lips made me want to kiss them. The outfit she had on...Wow. Thats all that went through Deidaras head.
"Sakura un.. You look beautiful.." Deidara said. Sakura blushed, and that only made her look more beautiful. Deidara smiled and almost lost himself.
"So are you ready un?" I asked. I couldnt take my eyes off her.
"Yeah" She smiled. My heart stopped.
"Lets go un.." I said lending her my hand as I guided her toward the door. We were then on our way to the movies. Deidaras secret date.
As they were on their way toward the movie theater, they were both on guard. Deidara stood close to Sakura and looked around in every direction, Sakura did the same. They couldnt let their guard down, not for a second.
I wont let anything happen to her un.. Deidara thought to himself.
Every car that passed by Sakura, both of them would jump. It was very nerve racking. Finally, what seemed to be hours, they finally got to the theater.
"What did you want to see un?" Deidara asked Sakura as they got on line.
Sakura looked at the movie lists and looked thoughtful." I dont know, what do you recommend?"
"Hmm..What about a horror movie?" Deidara asked smiling when Sakura gave him a weird look. "Ooooor not un..haha"
"How about that vampire movie?" Sakura asked pointing to a movie on the list "Interview With The Vampire?"
"That might be scary un.. Can you handle it?" Deidara asked chuckling.
"Sure.. I like Vampires" Sakura said smiling.
"Alright un!" Deidara said smiling wildly.
All of a sudden, Sakura grabbed his arm. He looked down at her, and saw her eyes wide with pure fear. Deidara tensed up and followed her gaze. There he was. Doji Haruno. Standing not 15 feet away, looking at them with such intensity, the hair on both their necks stood straight up.
