i guess three chapter in one day is enough...enjoy!

Chapter 9 ROBBER!

"Syoaron…?" To tell you the truth I was actually very happy to see him. I mean imagine what could of have happened to me if it was some stranger and he was a rapist?

"I came to pick you up." Before I could ask him what he was doing here he answered.

"Oh…" And then he dragged me to his car. I guess all that honking was made by him. A grin appeared on my face even though I truly did try to not show it, but it was a good thing Syoaron didn't see it.

The ride on the way home was ridden in silence. I really wanted to know how he knew I worked in Moon Restaurant, but I felt like he wasn't in the mood for any kind of conversation. He was just too quiet. It wasn't like he was mad or anything. He was just quiet and I think he probably didn't want me to interrupt the silent.

"I knew you work at Moon Restaurant because my dad owns that restaurant and today I had to look at the file of new employees and saw your profile."

"What?" My eyes were out of my sockets. His dad owned that restaurant! Syoaron looked at me like I was some kind of crazy woman. But then the next question I had in mind was why did he want to pick me up from work?

"And I wanted to pick you up because I actually didn't get a chance to go home today and just got off of work." What a coincident? We both got off of work late today.

We arrived home soon after the incident and I guess I'll cook a little snack or something. I was hungry and I was pretty sure Syoaron didn't eat anything yet. It can also be some kind of thank you gift for picking me up from work, because I am pretty glad he came and pick me up or else I would of have had to ride the bus home and I hated riding the bus and it was always dirty.

"Do you want something to eat?" I asked Syoaron as he was hanging his coat.

"Sure." He sat down on the sofa and started flicking through the channels. This was something new also. Usually he would just go up to his room and surprisingly he always knew when dinner or breakfast was ready without me telling him.

"Here." I gave him a plate of chocolate chip cookies and strawberries. (I know weird combo but I do love strawberries and cookies!)

"Thanks."

"Sure thing." I sat next to him but near the right side of the leg. Will actually next to it while Syoaron sat in the middle watching T.V. He was watching the news and I will have to see although I watch the news sometime too, it was boring and I never knew he was such a boring person. For some reason I always picture Syoaron as a guy who was outgoing, but then I can be wrong. I shouldn't judge what kind of person he was just based on what he watches.

Pretty soon he changed the channel to something else. It was a cartoon show.

'Now we're talking.' Of course I liked cartoon! Who wouldn't? Naruto was on. (I know it's late and all, but it's only a story.)

"HAHAHAHAHA" We both burst out laughing. It was only the second episode and Naruto did the shadow replication technique and turned his Narutos into that one Blondie.

Soon the episode was over and I put my plate in the sink.

'I'll wash it tomorrow morning.' I yawned and went upstairs.

As soon as I started walking up the stairs the water in the kitchen sink came on and I guess I won't be washing my plate or Syoaron's plate tomorrow then.

(Next Morning)

I woke up early like usually and went to wash up.

As I was brushing my teeth I heard a noise from below.

"Who the hell?" I quickly rinsed my month and slowly went down stairs.

'What if it was a robber? But what kind of robber would rob someone in broad day light? I mean some people did. I guess it thought no one was home since it didn't see Syoaron's car. Maybe Syoaron went to work early today. I wasn't sure if Syoaron's car was out in the parking lane or not, but that was a possibility. The house did looked nice and all. Maybe it thought there was some valuable stuff in the house? Well I didn't have anything to worry about but what about Syoaron?' I stopped thinking to myself and grabbed an umbrella out of the closet.

Bang I heard the noise again. It was coming from the kitchen. I was beginning to shake, but I was doing this for my own protection and for the house. I must not back out. As I reached the kitchen I saw a man wearing a black outfit and his back was towards me. He was walking around opening each shelf looking for something.

'What the hell is he looking for?' He was beginning to turn and I went back behind the wall. I heard foot steps going into the living room and swallowed my gut back down. I took a deep breath and NOW!

"What the hell are you doing here you bastard!" I as hitting it like there was no tomorrow as hard as I could.

"Oww! Oww! Sakura!" That voice…it belonged to

"Syoaron!" I stopped and the umbrella fell out of my hands. "Oh my god. I am so sorry Syoaron." I covered my heart with my hands and I swear I was going to have a heart attack. I couldn't barely breath.

"What the hell was that for?" Syoaron looked up at me glaring and I noticed I gave him a cut on the forehead and it was bleeding quite a lot too.

'Did I do that much damage?' "I'm very sorry." I picked up the umbrella that was not bent and useless. I threw it away and went up to the bathroom to grab the first aid kit.

When I came back down Syoaron was on the sofa with a napkin on his forehead.

I went over to him and opened the kit.

"Here." I took his hand and removed the napkin. I took out the anti-biotic and put some on his forehead as slowly and softly as I could.

"Oww." Syoaron was squeaking his eyes because of the pain. I felt so bad for hitting him. But what was he doing so in the kitchen wearing all black? I've not seen him wore all black before.

I blew on the cut to lessen the pain. "I'm so sorry." I thought out the band-aid and covered up the cut.

After I was done Syoaron spoke.

"What was that all about?" I felt my face burning up and looked down to the table in front of me. Suddenly it became a very interesting object.

"I…I…" I was also fidgeting with my fingers. "I heard some noise and thought it was some kind of robber and you were wearing all black and I thought you were the robber so I attacked you." I was expecting a "you are so stupid", but instead…

"HAHAHAHA!" Syoaron burst out laughing. I looked at him and had a nervous laugh instead. Syoaron got up and went into the kitchen.

"I was going to make breakfast. Was I making a lot of noise?" I sat where I was looking like a fool trying to take in all the things that had just happened a moment ago. 'He wasn't mad? He wasn't mad!' I happily thought and got up too and walked into the kitchen.

"Need some assistance?"
