Sorry about my lack of writing I had a major writers block!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ChApTeR fOuR

Sakura smiled at Li and sat down at the table. She sniffed the sweet aromas of what was on the table before her. Fresh bacon, eggs, muffins and everything a decent breakfast is made of. She quickly grabbed something and sat silently. She didn't know what to say, Li had been incredibly kind to her since she came here and she had actually began to like him sort of anyway.

"Did you have a good sleep?" Li asked

"Yes, I did thank-you I feel so embarrassed for sleeping so long" She replied

"It's perfectly okay" He said "I was wondering today would you like to explore the grounds with me only if you want to though?" he quickly asked

Sakura blushed but quickly explained that she would love to they arranged for a quick tour of the place and then a swim later on in the day in the indoor pool. Sakura went upstairs to change and get ready. They left the house at about 10:30 am and planned to be back at around 1 pm. Li was surprised that he was being so kind to this girl, he was usually a mean child spoilt with the riches of life but this woman changed him. He found himself being nice and considerate to this girl.

Sakura was in turn surprised at how forthcoming she was, usually a shy girl she felt comfortable around him and never stuttered or avoided conversation. Li took her to a beautiful river than ran on the grounds just a half an hour walk away from the house. The scene was slightly romantic and to Sakura it seemed more like a date but Li was completely oblivious to the scene that he had created.

On the walk back to the house Li suddenly felt the need to question her, questions he had first thought of came out completely differently to what he had planned. In fact even Sakura didn't expect them.

"Sakura I have been meaning to ask you, do you have anyone that you need to call or write to friends, teachers boyfriends" He asked

Sakura smiled and replied "No, I rang Madison my best friend and we are going to catch up, she lives near here I think. Plus I would never want to write to teachers and I don't have a boyfriend."

Li was ecstatic and smiled at her. On the walk back they continued to chat mainly about England and the weather etc. When they got back to the house Sakura ran upstairs to get changed. But when she got up to her room she found an elderly man going through her draws of clothes. Sakura was shocked and immediately questioned him.

"Excuse me but what the hell do you think your doing? "She asked the man

The man bowed deeply and said "Good Afternoon my name is Jackson and I am your butler I was making sure that all your things were in order" and he walked out.

Sakura changed into a pink and white bikini and shorts and ran downstairs to meet Li at the pool. She was confused with the man and wondered what he was really doing; he sure as hell wasn't checking things. When she reached the pool Li was already in the water swimming around. She laughed and dived in and swam to him.

"Li, there was some man in my room before, he was going through my draws and when I asked him what he was doing he made some excuse and ran out" She explained

"Who was this man? Sakura who was it? was his name Jackson?" He asked

Sakura nodded confused.

Li swore and cursed and punched his hands into the water. Which made Sakura even more confused and troubled she waited patiently while Li threw his tantrum.

"Jackson is my father's right hand man" He said "My father isn't the best man in the world he is bitter and cold most of the time. I thought that when you arrived he would change and see a better light. But he can't of if he is getting Jack to check on you"

"Why would he need to do that I'm not bad I don't understand" Sakura burst into tears and swam to the edge of the pool.

"He does it to everyone" Li said with emotion and swam towards Sakura hugging her tightly "he needs to show his power and that he is in control. My father used to be different; he used to be a good man and always took time to make sure that we have fun. But when my mother died and Jackson came he changed now it's like I don't exist". Li exclaimed angrily.

Sakura looked at Li and saw how upset he was getting, and tried to change the subject and asked him about school. It didn't work Li just ignored her and got out of the pool.

"Where are you going" She asked

"I have to go see my father" He mumbled and left Sakura Sakura got out straight away and went up to her rooms. She fell onto her bed and thought about what Li had said. Jackson was a man she definitely couldn't trust not as far as she could possibly throw him. She was thinking for about 10 minutes before someone knocked on her door.

She got up and screamed "Come in" and wrapped her towel tightly around her body. She sighed loudly in relief when she saw that it was Li.

He smiled at her and gave her a key. He said that he couldn't stay long and to lock her door at night and whenever she left the room.

"I spoke to my father" he said "He claimed that he knew nothing about it and that Jackson does his own thing sometimes, but that for now he has to go out for the night on business" Sakura nodded and took it

But Li didn't go on business he saw this when he was at dinner. What is he doing here she thought angrily things were starting to be very odd. When she sat down she found a note on her chair it read

"Sakura, Yes i'm not on business. I thought I was Jackson went instead I obviously can't tell you everything now but meet me on the bridge at eleven pm tonight you will be told everything I promise.

Always Li Sayoran

Sakura crumpled up the note and blushed. The bridge that was so romantic, Li showed her the bridge today, it was a huge wooden thing which stood above the river, and she would have to leave at about 10:00 to be there on time. Dinner went well; Master Samuel asked Sakura how she liked the place. Sakura told him that she loved it and planned to stay as long as she as welcome.

At 9:30 Sakura made her excuses and went to bed saying that she had a headache after a big day exploring. She winked at Li and climbed upstairs to her room. Once she was there she put a turtle neck on and jeans and packed a bag with a torch a map her mobile phone and her keys. She locked her door and climbed out the window. She made her way to the bridge and when she got there she found Li pacing the spot.

"Hello" she whispered

"Hello Sakura thank-you for coming I need to tell you something important and you need to be patient with me this is a big deal" He replied also whispering

Sakura nodded and ran to him waiting for his explanation something was going on and Sakura sensed it was bad.
