Chapter: 2

Mark smiles at Tomoyo. "Hey Tomoyo long time no see."

Tomoyo just looks at him and does not reply. Sakura looks from Mark to Tomoyo and back again wondering why her best friend was suddenly so tense and pale.

Tomoyo looks to Sakura with a fake smile plastered on her face. "Sakura-Chan its time for us to go." Remember we promised my mom we would be back by 4:00. And it's already 3:25 so we better hurry and get going if we want to be there on time."

Sakura looks at Tomoyo confused for a moment but as soon as she sees her eyes she understands and nods her agreement with what she said. 'Your right I am sorry Tomoyo I was not paying attention to the time like usual."

Sakura stands up and picks up her many bags and turns to Mark. "It was nice meeting you Mark maybe see you some other time." She smiles brightly and follows Tomoyo who did not even bother to nod a bye to Mark.

As they walk away Mark smiles somewhat an evil lust filled smirk. You are next on my list Sakura. So warn her while you can Tomoyo because after what you did to me she will be the one to pay for you mistake.

In the car driving to Tomoyo's house

Sakura looks away from the road for a moment and to her friend who was sitting quietly and trembling in the seat next to her. "What is wrong Tomoyo?" Sakura asks in a worried voice.

Tomoyo looks at her friend a little sad that she has to tell her what happened. She never wanted for her best friend to know. She never wanted anyone to know what happened.

She sighs and decides that if she wants to keep her friend safe now was the time to tell her the truth. "Sakura do you remember about 6 months ago when I told you I had a boy friend?"

Sakura nods thinking back to the time in question how happy her friend had seemed back then until something happened that Tomoyo would not talk about.

She sighs and continues. "That boyfriend was the Mark you were talking to in the mall. We only went out for about a month before it happened.'

"Before what happened?" Sakura asked wondering what could go bad with such a nice guy.

Tomoyo looks out the window. "It was our one month anniversary; he had taken me to a nice restaurant and a walk in the beach. I thought it was so romantic. When he took me home I invited him in for a moment since mom was gone on business and would not be back until the next day. I told him to make himself at home as I went into the kitchen to get a glass of water myself since the staff had been given the night off.

When I came back into the living room where I had left him he was not there. I was about to turn around when his arms came around my waist from behind. At first I was ok just startled and I told him so. He just smiled and started to nuzzle my neck. I asked him to stop but he just tightened his grip and kept at it.

I grew afraid and struggled but he is much stronger then me and it proved to be futile. He forced me against the wall and started to touch my most secret parts from behind. I was so afraid. I screamed at him to stop but he continued saying that I could scream all I want but it would do me no good. No one was around to hear my pleas and I cried knowing he was right. He pulled me back from the wall and pushed me up the stairs to my room.

I did not know how he knew where it was but he did. He pushed me down on the bed and tied my wrists to the bed. As he pulled back to pull of his pants I grabbed my hair pin out of my hair glad that he was stupid enough to tie my hands in a way that they were together and close to my hair. As he unzipped and stepped out of his pants I cut my wrists free glad that my mother had thought to give me the hair knife incase I needed protection. As he was coming towards me I kicked him hard where it hurts with my high heel shoes and scrambled off the bed and ran down the stairs. As I was about to open the door it opened on its own and there was my mother.

She told me much later that she was home early because she was not really that needed after all. She looked at me worriedly and then up as she heard a crash and saw Mark coming after me with no pants on. When he saw her he ran back the way he had come and crashed out the window. Mom called the police and told them what happened after I told her what happened.

He was arrested but now I see he is out of jail." She wipes away the tears that had fallen down her face. Most would say that it really was not that bad but to a girl like Tomoyo it was one of the worst things ever.

Sakura's eyes widened in horror at what had happened to her best friend. She pulled over and gave her a hug. "Oh Tomoyo how horrible. I am so glad you told me though. I know now to stay away from him."

Tomoyo smiles at her friend glad that she would and glad to have finally told her what had happened. "Lets go to my house so I can drop off my stuff ok then we can head back to your house."

"Sakura nods and maneuvers the car back onto the road again and in no time was at Tomoyo's house. She waits in the car as Tomoyo drops off her stuff and quickly drives back to the house as soon as she was back in the car.

When they arrived they both carried all of the new things that Sakura had bought up to her room and put them in her walk in closet. "Man I am bushed." Said a worn out Sakura.

"Well why don't you take a nap while I go make something to eat ok"

Sakura smiles. "Ok that would be great Tomoyo" She flops down on her bed and is asleep in a matter of seconds.

Tomoyo giggles at her friend before heading downstairs in search of ingredients for supper.

Sakura's Dream

Sakura frowned in her sleep. It was happening again. She was walking down many halls dark and seemingly deserted. A few lights would flicker on but never stayed lit and would return the hall back to its dark state.

But it was different this time; there was someone with her. It was Tomoyo and by looking into her eyes she saw that Tomoyo was worried and so was she. They appeared to be looking for someone or something but were unable to find it.

She watches as Tomoyo goes down one hall and she goes down another. In her dream she feels desperate and as if she is regretting something.

She walks into a dark room and seems to find what she is looking for. But all she could see in her dream was a large shadow. Her dream self rushed towards it but before Sakura could see who it was she woke up

Sakura clutches her head wondering why she keeps dreaming the same dream. Knowing that she would not be able to sleep anymore she gets up and goes downstairs to help Tomoyo with supper.

Tomoyo looks up as she sees Sakura enter. "Did you have good nap Sakura-Chan?"

"Kind of, I had that dream again. You know the one I told you about earlier."

"Its probley nothing Sakura so don't worry about it. How about some supper? It's all done"

"Ok!" Sakura sits down and dives into the wonderfully prepared dish that Tomoyo had made. "This is really good Tomoyo"

Tomoyo smiles glad that Sakura approved of her cooking. She dives into her own plate and they eat in silence.

Mark watches them from behind a tree outside. He smirks planning he next move. He was sure Tomoyo had told little Sakura all about what he had done to her. But no matter he would still have her. He pushes himself away and walks back to his car a block away and drives back to his house to wait until the time seemed right.

Baby: So what do you think? I know it's nothing like your normal Beauty and the Beast and some might be wondering why Li and them have not showed up but don't worry they will soon. Please R&R!
