Chapter 5: Friends

The dark clouds came pouring with more and more rain. It was around 6:30. As Sakura sat there still crying. A shadow figure of a guy was behind her. This shadow person was a criminal that broke out of jail yesterday. He was Standing there with a smirk on his face.

"Looky Looky at What I found." Said the fugitive

Sakura looked up and saw this ugly man.

"What do you want?" Sakura said in a shaky voice.

"Nothing much. just money, and you." said the man. Now Sakura was really scared. She got up and started to run. But the man grabbed her arm and said "Now , Now don't leave so soon." Gripping her arm with more force.

"Please let go of me. Your hurting me. Please." Pleaded Sakura

"I will when I'm done with my business. First of give me your money."

"I don't have any."

"Well then.." Since Sakura didn't have money he started to beat her till her eyes were shut.

********** Syaoran ******

As I was running to the park excited that Sakura wanted to talk to me. I forgot to get an umbrella and her I am soaking wet. I was at the park entrance when I saw this guy beating some one. So I decided to help.

*****Regular******

The guy stopped to take a rest for 3 seconds. Then THUG! He fell to the ground. When he fell Sakura started to open her eyes and saw Syaoran's face. Syaoran was beating the guy for hurting her. To Sakura it was a good time to run which she did. Syaoran saw her run and yelled "SAKURA! Comeback!" Then he started to run after her.

*****Sakura****

After my eyes shut I heard this loud thug and curious I opened my eyes end saw Syaoran beating the crap out of the guy. I thought when he was done he was going to talk to me so I started to run. I ran till I couldn't and just cried.

******Syaoran***

When I came closer to the guy I saw that he was beating MY Sakura. I was so angry that I started to beat him up 5 times what he did to her. While I was doing that I saw Sakura's eyes open and she ran away. I called her but she wouldn't listen. I finished beating the guy and ran after her. But to my surprise I couldn't find her that easily because she was somewhere full of trees.

*******Regular****

Syaoran was still looking for Sakura in the rain for two hours. Until he heard crying. He followed the cry and found Sakura lying in the grass crying uncontrollably. He came closer to her and when he was right beside her she stopped crying. So Syaoran picked her up and brought her to his apartment. He laid her on his couch in the living room. then he was making soup for the both of them in the kitchen. Then he went to his room got a blanket and pillow for Sakura. He lifted her head, put the pillow on the couch, and rested her head on the pillow and putted the blanket over her.. He touched her face and looked at it for 5 minutes and went to the bathroom to get the first aid kit and mend her wounds. He also went to his room and grab a shirt and pants for Sakura to change in. He came back and removed the blanket and looked at her laying there. Her wounds, black shirt and orange zip pants stained with some blood, dirt and wet from the rain. He started to put ointment on her arms.

"Ouch.. that hurts.." whispered Sakura.

"Don't worry it's all done." replied Syaoran who went in the kitchen to get the soup.

Sakura's eyes shut open when she recognized who's voice it belonged to. She sat up but laid back for she was still weak.

"Your not getting off that couch tonight." said Syaoran walking with the soup.

Sakura looked at him then asked "Why are you doing this to me after all I did to you?"

Syaoran countered with a "If the situation was reverse what would you do?"

Sakura thought for a moment and said "Leave you there."

"Uh huh.. Here's soup." He handed her the soup and Sakura took it, she tried to feed her self but she couldn't bring the spoon halfway up to her mouth. Syaoran saw this.

"Here let me feed you." Sakura said nothing and let him feed her.

When she was full Syaoran ate his soup. Sakura was just watching him. When he was done he took both of there bowls and brought it to the kitchen. He came back and this time Sakura was sitting down so he sat beside her.

Silence. For a long time.

Sakura then finally broke the silence and said "Thank you..........Syaoran..."

"You don't have to thank me I would have done it either way."

Silence.

Then Syaoran spoke "Sakura did you know that when I was away I tried to communicate in anyway with you. It's just that my mother wouldn't let me."

Sakura didn't respond just stared at the table.

"And.. If you remember the last time we were together I told you why I had to go."

Silence.

"The reason was clan business. I told you that after the song that was being sung on the stereo."

".....I can't remember Syaoran.."

"How could you not forget?"

"....I guess I was too sad that some memories were forgotten."

"Well I'll help you remember them."

"Don't I'll do it on my own."

"Are you sure?"

Sakura nodded

"Sakura is there by any chance you'll forgive me."

"........Well I need time to heal and yeah some day.."

"Does this mean were friends?"

"I guess."

"But what about our relationship?"

"We can try to start over after a month? Does that sounds fair?" She looked at his eyes.

"Yeah that is fair. So were friends now?"

Sakura nodded. Then after a little bit more of silence Sakura putted her head on his shoulder and asked "Can we watch t.v?"

Syaoran got one arm and wrapped it around Sakura. "Sure Sakura, Sure. But you do know that you are going to stay here tonight since your still weak."

"But what about clothes for school tomorrow?"

Syaoran pointed to a green top with white capris.

"Where did you get that?"

"It's for you. I got it in Hong Kong as a gift for you"

"But I don't wear those any more. Can I just wear one of your pants and shirt?"

"Fine."

"Thanks Syaoran. And don't worry I'll wear it in the near future."

After that they resumed watching t.v.

After a couple of hours both Syaoran and Sakura fell asleep on the couch in the same position.
