The Secret Garden
Chapter Nine: May I Have a Bit of Earth??
Rating: G
That night Sakura couldn't sleep; she was pondering a way to ask her uncle about the garden. The warm quilt was wrapped around her making her body feel warm and cozy, but it still couldn't relax her mind. She tossed and turned but her eyes just wouldn't close. Sakura sat up and litterly glared at her pillow the feather softness of her pillow just wasn't doing the trick tonight. Finally she gave up and just lay awake and stared at her canopy top.
Go to sleep Sakura she thought to herself, but the other side argued back But you still haven't found a way to ask him! Sakura sighed. Then I guess we'll just have to see what happens she told herself.
Her eyes were about to finally close when she heard a creak in the floor just outside her door. Sakura gulped and stuck her head underneath her pillow and whispered to herself.
"There is no such things as ghost, there is no such things as ghost, there...is...no...such...things...as...g-g-ghost" she peeked through her covers to see her door open. Her eyes widened as a dark figure walked up to her bed it had a candle in hand and was looking down on her.
Play asleep Sakura she breath steadily like she was sleeping.
The figure continued to watch her. It whispered something to it's self then made it's way back to the door. When it had left Sakura opened her eyes.
What is that? she wondered to herself. She gathered all her courage ,and slipped out of bed. She grabbed her candle along the way, and quietly followed the figure.
The figure descended down the steps Sakura quietly following, soon it came to Eli's tapestry.
Why is it going in there?.
It walked up to Eli's bed and looked down at him. Eli was sleeping peacefully in his bed. His blue hair was hanging loosely over his face. The figure held the candle to it's face, and that is when Sakura saw who it was.
Uncle craven?.
"Eli" he paused "My sweet little boy" He wore such a sorrowful expression, and his blue eyes were filled with sadness.
Sakura not wanting to stay no more, went back up to her room. Once she got there she climbed into her covers and stared up at her canopy.
If he comes to see us at night, why doesn't he just do it in the morning?.
Her uncle was a strange man very mysterious and queer. Her eyes finally closed, and fluttered open to a cloudy day on the moors. She sat up and stretched. She looked around her room and was surprised to see her breakfast was already there.
"But it's to early for Madison to come.." she said thinking aloud.
Sakura got up out of her bed and sat down at her small table. Madison came in with a smile on her face. Today her hair wasn't up in a braid, it was flowing loosely and it was curly. Her baby blue dress had flowers on it she looked really quite pretty.
Sakura smiled at her.
"What's the deal?"
Madison blushed.
"What do you mean?"
"What's with the clothes and hair" Sakura said still smiling.
"Oh that well." she paused "Today the lord wants to see you and I'm to present you, and I have to look my best"
Sakura shot up from her chair.
"HE WANTS TO SEE ME?!"
Madison chuckled.
"Yes, and your to eat, and dress in your best"
Sakura ate nervously the rest of the time. It seemed that it hit her stomach like a pile of bricks every time, finally when she was done Madison picked out a pretty black dress. She did Sakura's hair and led her out of the room. Soon they came to the manors library where Mrs. Medlock was waiting.
"Come along Sakura, thank you Madison, you may go for the day"
Said Mrs. Medlock blankly.
Madison curtsied.
"Yes ma'am" and with one last smile and a whisper of good luck to Sakura, Madison disappeared.
"Come on Sakura" Medlock turned and walked through a big door, Sakura following slowly. Every now and then she would turn, and becone Sakura to follow like a puppy would do to it's master.
Soon they came to a big door Mrs. Medlock opened the door to five growling dogs.
"Your lord ship, Sakura has arrived" she said over the growls.
Drool ran down the dogs mouth as they bared their teeth at Sakura like they were daring her to come any closer. Sakura gulped.
"You may go Medlock" he said from behind a chair.
Medlock nodded and left Sakura in the dark room.
"Come here" he said waving to her. He rubbed his index fingers on his temples like he was deep in thought. Sakura moved a bit closer to him, and stopped just before she entered the realm of growling dogs (hehe). "There is no need to be scared, please come closer" he said.
This might be your last chance Sakura better make it good she thought. She took a deep breath and walked up to his chair avoiding the eyes of the dogs.
Lord Craven looked up at the girl and took a sharp breath.
**Lord Craven's Flashback**
A woman with auburn hair and green eyes was laughing as she exited the manor.
"I'm going to the garden Archie!" she called.
He smiled to her "All right I'll be right here" he called after her.
That would be the last time he would see her smile...
**End of Flashback**
A tear trickled down the grown mans face, he quickly brushed it away, and looked up at the spiting image of his Lilias. The thirteen year old girl was looking at him with a nervous expression.
He stared at her.
"Your parents never sent me your picture" he said getting up and going to a huge desk in the corner of his room.
"They never had time to take a picture of me" Sakura said in almost a whisper.
"Your eyes are so much like.." Craven held a photograph in his hand he kept looking down at the picture then back up at her. "Medlock wants me to send you to some boarding school"
Sakura gasped.
"No!" she cried "Please don't! I don't do any harm!" she said.
His eyes softened upon the thirteen year old.
"What harm could you do" he said more to himself.
Time to ask Sakura now!
"All I need is-" she still couldn't find the right way to ask then it came to her "Could I have a bit of earth?" she asked.
Craven looked up at her.
"A bit of earth?" he asked puzzeled.
"Yes" she said answering quickly "A place to plant seeds in, and could I take it from anywhere? As long as it's not wanted?"
The Lord looked at her. She just looked to much like her he couldn't stand to look at her anymore. So he yelled:
"Take your bit of earth!, go! Just GO!"
Sakura beamed at him. She ran out the door, but bumped into Mrs. Medlock as she was coming in. Medlock glared at Sakura, but Sakura just smiled and ran out. Before Medlock could say anything Craven spoke.
"I must go! I'll be gone till winter" he announced.
Medlock simply nodded.
**Outside**
Sakura was so happy she had to tell Syaoran. First she ran up to her room, and grabbed a bag of seeds and sprinted out into the up coming spring air. (She always carried her key). Sakura ran down the path to the garden the clouds started to thicken but it didn't cloud her sprit.
Syaoran was already in the garden putting up different signs to where each flower would be. He heard the garden door open and smiled for he knew the cherry blossom would be running up the path any minute. Sure enough there she came; her eyes full of joy and a smile as big as the heavens.
"Syaoran!" Sakura called "Syaoran!" she ran up to him and climbed up on a stump that was by the place where Syaoran was putting up signs. "Syaoran he said yes!" she exclaimed.
"Yes to what?" he asked smiling at her; he loved to see her so happy.
"He said yes, I could take any garden I wanted as long as it wasn't wanted" she smiled "We can plant corn flowers" she reached into her bag and threw out some seeds they scattered on the ground "Any flowers that we want" she smiled.
He smiled up at her when rain started to fall, the little droplets of water splashed on the jade eyed girl face. Sakura looked up to the cloudy sky and smiled. Syaoran walked over to her and grabbed her hand and helped her off the stump, and lead her over to an arch of leaves were they would have shelter. The two stood under the leaves and smiled at one another.
"The rain will help the flowers grow" Syaoran explained.
Sakura smiled and held out her arms and twirled in the rain and laughed.
Syaoran smiled at watched her.
She is just to beautiful he thought, but this time he didn't mentally kick himself You love her he smiled to himself and watched her.
After she stopped twirling; her hair was damp and wet she looked up to him and smiled. Her emerald eyes shining with joy. Syaoran just couldn't stand the temptation any longer so he bent down and kissed her on the lips.
Sakura was in shock at first but slowly she kissed back. The two were like that for awhile then slowly they parted and stared at each other, Syaoran was blushing crimson.
Sakura smiled at him her heart was fluttering inside of her; she felt like she was walking on cloud nine.
"Well...I...better...be...getting....back." she said slowly.
"Y-yea" he said still blushing.
She smiled up at him and bit her lip and kissed him on the cheek and whispered:
"Goodnight Syaoran" and made her way back up to the manor.
Syaoran watched her go and sunk down onto his bottom, and just stared out in awe. The robin twittered on a branch, soot crowed on his shoulder, but to Syaoran their noises were not heard. All he could do was smile.
**Night**
That night, Sakura couldn't sleep so she got up and watched the rain fall on the moors. A smile still played on her lips as she watched the droplets slide down her window. Soon she heard a carriage leave she looked down to see her uncles carriage making it's way out of the moors.
Spring had started that night... and Lord Craven had fled from it..
AN- Hehehe what you think now? I hope your yelling kawaii ^-^ told you, you would.
