Chapter Six: Busted
"Mommy... I want to go home. I'm tired..." Hikaru yawned. They had just finished watching one of the movies playing at the theatre.
Sakura nodded. "I guess she would be gone by now." Sakura said aloud.
"Who would be gone?" Xiao Long peered at her.
"Oh... no one." Sakura stuttered, "Lets go, shall we?" Xiao Long and Hikaru took Sakura's hand, they all left the theatre.
They had finally reached the apartment. Sakura listened for any traces of Faye. It was dead silent. 'Good, she's gone.' Sakura thought, relieved. She knocked on the door. The door swung open fiercely, and what Sakura saw made her mouth drop to the floor. It seems as if Syaoran had just finished taking a shower, all he wore was a towel, that was wrapped around his waist. "T-t-hey were tired." Sakura managed to mumble.
"Daddy!" Hikaru squealed, as she practically jumped onto him, giving him a hug.
"Uh... hi there." Syaoran muttered. He looked up at Sakura, and glared at her, "You can leave now."
Sakura nodded at started to head home, but before she could step out of the doorway, Xiao Long already had a hold of her.
"Mommy, why can't you stay?" Xiao Long whined.
"Well... Because... if I didn't I would get into big trouble..." Sakura explained.
"Just for awhile longer?" Hikaru asked, still holding Syaoran.
Sakura kneeled down to Xiao Long's level. "Don't worry, I'll come back tommorow." She patted him on the head and gave a hug to Hikaru.
"Don't forget about me!" Kero came flying out of one of the rooms.
"Kero? I thought you went with Tomoyo and Eriol?" Sakura asked, suprised.
"I fell asleep in one of the rooms, when I woke up, everyone was gone." Kero explained, "Except for the gaki and that witch, Faye."
"There was a witch here?" Hikaru sqeaked.
"She isn't a witch, she's really nice. She told me all about a certain someone." Syaoran implied, glaring at Sakura.
"Come on, Kero. In my bag." Sakura instructed, opening her bag.
Kero let out a long sigh and flew in.
"Who's Faye?" Xiao Long pouted.
"No one, Xiao Long. Bye you two." Sakura called, walking out of the door. She let out a sigh and glanced at her watch. 'I'm late! Okaa-san will be so mad!' she thought, panicing. She swung her bag, over her arm, securing it, then raced home.
Syaoran finally put down Hikaru, and put on a green t-shirt and sweatpants. He had to practically drag Xiao Long and Hikaru to bed, because they had kept asking him questions about Faye.
Sakura finally reached home, she opened the door quickly, hoping that no one would notice that she was gone for so long. Unfortunately, Mizumi was standing right at the doorway, as if she was waiting for her.
"You disobeyed my orders." Mizumi said angrily.
"I'm sorry, I got caught up with something." Sakura said quietly.
"With what?"
"She was at MY boyfriend's house. Probably trying to get him as well." Faye interrupped them, "You left this at his house." she smirked, holding up Sakura's jacket.
"No, I wasn't do anything at his house. Just trying to finish our project." Sakura tried to defend herself.
It was too late. Mizumi walked up to her and slapped her on the face. "Bitch! I don't know how I can put up with you!"
Sakura's cheek stung, tears started to form in her eyes.
"This one is from me and Syaoran." Faye said angrily, walking up to her and slapping her other cheek.
"B-but..." she tried to explain. Sakura ran towards the stairs, which led to her room. Faye caught up to her quite easily.
"Oh yea. This one too." Faye smirked, she threw her fist at Sakura's face. She managed to get the right side of her face, close to her eye. "Don't ever, go near him again." Faye threatened.
Sakura ran upstairs and closed the door, then locking it. Kero immediately flew out of her bag.
"Why did you just let them hurt you like that!?" Kero asked, anger boiled inside of him.
"I-I don't kknow..." was all Sakura could answer. 'Why did I just let them push me around. I know for a fact that I could beat them easily...'
"I don't know whats wrong with you, but I just can't stand here and watch you get hurt." Kero said angrily, "I will kill those two..."
"Please don't." Sakura said quietly.
Kero looked at her, his eyes were wide.
"It was my fault, I deserved to get punished." Sakura put out plainly.
"Do you even know what your saying?" Kero screamed.
"Please. Kero. Leave me alone." Sakura told him angrily. 'Maybe... I just want them to accept me, as an individual and someone who is part of the family.' Sakura wondered sadly. She changed into her pyjama's and cried herself to sleep, as the pain still throbbed on her face.
--Next Day...
Syaoran sat on the couch, expecting for Sakura to come. The emerald eyes girl, kept entering Syaoran's mind. 'Why does she keep bugging me, its already worst enough that I have to deal with her.' he thought angrily. He shook his head vigourously, trying to get Sakura out of his mind.
"Daddy..." Xiao Long whined, standing on the other end of the couch.
Syaoran managed a smile. "Here, sit beside me." he told him, patting the seat beside him.
Xiao Long sat on the couch and looked at him, "How come you so mean to mommy?" Xiao Long asked quickly.
"Well..." Syaoran started.
"I thought you loved each other!" Xiao Long exclaimed.
"You see... Your mommy is a very bad girl, I don't like her." Syaoran put out plainly, 'Now... maybe he'll leave me alone!' he thought.
"She is not!" he stared at him, "She took me and Hikaru for a movie! We were at the apartment, about to go in, but mommy suggested a movie instead!"
Syaoran raised an eyebrow, 'So she does know that Faye was here. She was probably too scared to come in...' he thought, laughing silently.
Suddenly, Syaoran heard a light knock on the door, he went over to the door and swung it open, expecting Sakura. 'I'm so not in the mood for her happy, cheerful spirit...' he thought angrily. But instead of the same cheerful, happy girl that had been bugging him for days, he saw her head drooping down.
"Is there something on the ground, you would like to pick up?" he asked bluntly.
Sakura looked up, "Oh, I'm sorry, no there's nothing on the ground." she smiled.
Syaoran noticed a bruise below Sakura's right eye, and her cheeks were a bit swollen, but it was mostly covered by a ton of makeup. "Come in." he gestured.
"Mommy!" Xiao Long jumped up.
"Hey there." Sakura smiled even wider. She placed her bag on the ground. "Can't stay for long you know, school and everything."
"I have to go change." Syaoran told them.
Syaoran was walking down the hallway, but he still heard every single word of the conversation that took place.
"Mommy, how come your a bit red and you a have a purple blob under your eye?" Xiao Long asked innocently.
"Well... I tripped on the concrete, and there was a rock." Sakura fibbed.
"Oh..." Xiao Long sighed.
'More like someone punched her.' Syaoran snickered, 'She deserves it.'
KNOCK KNOCK!
"I'll get it." Sakura called.
"Shhh..." Xiao Long whispered, putting a finger over his mouth, "Hikaru is still sleeping."
Sakura opened the door and saw a old man. "Can I help you?" she asked politely.
"Is Syaoran around?" the old man asked.
"He's getting ready for school, so it's going to take a minute." Sakura informed him.
"Anyways, I was sent here by Master Li's mother, to take care of the children, so he can concentrate on his studies."
"Alright, come in."
The old man slowly walked in and settled his bags on the ground.
"Wei, you finally made it." Syaoran said.
"Yes, your mother told me to give you this." Wei said, holding our a small envelope.
"Thank you." Syaoran bowed.
"Anyways, I'm going to go to school now..." Sakura told them.
"Fine, whatever." Syaoran waved his hand.
"Why don't you give Miss Kinomoto a ride too?" Wei suggested.
"No, I'll be fine." Sakura told him. 'Besides, if Faye saw us together, she'll freak!' Sakura thought. She waved to Xiao Long and headed out for school.
She made it to school, with a lot of time to spare, since she had ran most of the way.
"Hey Sakura!" Tomoyo and Meilin called.
Sakura waved and gave a light smile. "I guess I'm finally early." she pointed out.
Eriol approached the three girls. "How is this lovely young lady today?" Eriol asked Tomoyo, as he wrapped his arm around her waist.
"I'm fine." she smiled, giving him a light peck on the cheek.
Meilin looked at Sakura strangely, "Sakura? What happened to your face?"
"Nothing..." Sakura murmured.
Tomoyo and Eriol both turned their attention to Sakura. Tomoyo scowled slightly. "Somethings up, Sakura."
"I said nothing!" Sakura reassured them.
"Well first of all, you always come to school hungry..." Tomoyo pointed out.
"Secondly, you never wear makeup." Meilin said, "Besides, you could easily see the purple bruise and the redness in your cheeks."
"Spit it out." Eriol said simply.
"Well... I was walking home and some kids were playing baseball and well.. the ball flew in my face!" Sakura told them quickly. Immediately, she felt guilty, for lying to her best friends. They didn't know about her situation at home, why she hated going home everyday. In the corner of her eye, she spotted Syaoran getting out of his car and walking alongside with Faye. The two pasted Sakura and her friends.
"So Syaoran, why don't I come over tonight?" Faye suggested, her throat a bit cracked. A smirk was seen as she pasted Sakura.
"Alright." Syaoran said huskily.
'Hikaru and Xiao Long!' Sakura immediately thought, 'I'll take them out for awhile.'
--After school [a/n:too lazy to write about the school day.]
The school day had pasted quickly, but it was still on its usual routine. Syaoran made it obvious that he still hated Sakura's guts and Faye had kept that evil look in her eye. Sakura quickly said goodbye to her friends and left for Syaoran's apartment. When she got there, she found Xiao Long and Hikaru watching television as Wei, was cooking some dinner.
"If you don't mind Wei, I was wondering if the kids could spend the day with me. I'm sure its been exhausting for you already." Sakura offered politely.
"Oh, I'm fine, but it's up to the children if they want to go anywhere, Miss Kinomoto." Wei told her.
"Please call me Sakura."
Wei gave a light smiled.
"Hikaru! Xiao Long! How about we go get some ice cream? And maybe go to the park after?" Sakura asked sweetly. 'I hope Faye and Syaoran don't walk into this.'
Hikaru and Xiao Long agreed almost immediately and soon they were off to the park. They ate ice cream as they talked about various things. Xiao Long and Hikaru kept asking about Syaoran, all Sakura could do was steer them away from that subject.
"Well lets go home..." she told them. Suddenly rain started to pour almost out of no where. "Come on! Your going to catch a cold!" she told them, she led them back to her house. 'Mizumi is at a meeting today, so I won't have to worry about anyone...' she thought.
They raced into Sakura's house, sheltering themselves from the rain.
"Mommyy..." Xiao Long and Hikaru whined, both were soaking wet.
"Well, well who do we have here?" a high pitched voice said evilly.
