RE-CAP.-"I am not a klutz!" Sakura yelled at him as she reached up to grab a coffee pot, but she had to step on the bottom shelve to do so, soooooo...she ended up slipping and sending everything crashing down, including her. Dave bent down in a fit of laughter as he saw the brown beans littered all over the floor, and all over the shocked Sakura.
She looked over to him, and he glanced up then seeing her face covered with the brown powder he cracked up again, his side cramping painfully. Sakura grabbed a, something-you-use-in-a-coffee-shop-yet-not-something-breakable-yet-hard-enough-to-hurt-you at him where it hit him squarely on the forehead.
An "OW!" was heard as the thing she hit him with collided with his head and clanged on the floor where she got up and dusted herself off, trying very hard not to rub her sore tush.

Sakura had to put up with Dave everyday since he worked with her. But today he was pushing it. She was usually a sweet person, but when you were dealing with Dave he made murder's seem like overgrown kids who liked fluffy bunnies. Her job went on as usual, her taking people's orders, threatening Dave, making some more coffee, threatening Dave, cleaning up some tables, threatening Dave, sweeping up the floors at closing time, and finally hitting Dave hard on the head with the broom handle after she finished threatening him with it.
The once full 'lobby' was now basically deserted and only a few people were standing around. Some guys called out to her but she just ignored them, not in any real mood thanks to her annoingly great co-worker Dave. It was somewhat peaceful as she walked around the carpeted floors with no one around just her, and she welcomed the quiet. Sakura then smelt some smoke, and thought it was just some people smoking from the back, and they had left the doors open. She continued on walking but it nagged at her because smoking was allowed here so they'd be really careful so no professor would find them. Curiosity got the better of her and she rounded the corner where, sure enough the back door was open letting the sun's light shine bright white. Sakura walked over and looked outside. There was no one, just the neatly cut green grass and a few people practising football. But she didn't feel the satisfaction or her curiostity die away, in fact, this just fed it and made her want to know the answer even more.
She stepped out and the warm summer breeze played with her hair, but she hardly felt it. After looking at some of the buildings ally's (I don't have another word to describe it) she gave up.
"This is too weird." Sakura said to herself her emerald eyes still scanning around for an answer. Suddenly something shifted under the black garbage bags, and Sakura was immediatly on guard.
It shook again and Sakura prayed it wasn't a rat or some other beady eyed animal. Something groaned and she knew right away it wasn't an animal. Sakura went to the fly covered bags and pulled them away, trying to hold her breath from the disgusting smell. And there under it all, barely moving, was a young girl. She looked to be her age judging from her body but she couldn't tell because she was on her stomach. Sakura kneeled down and pulled back the hair from the girls face. Honey eyes looked blankly at the ground and Sakura recognized her from her hip-hop class. Her name was Sammy, and she was very quiet but always nice. Sakura panicked as she saw the state she was in. There were bruises on her arms and neck, and a few scratches on her. Her hair was in a mess and her clothing looked as if it had been tampered with.
"Hey Sammy, it's Sakura. Don't worry hun, i'll get you inside okay? Don't move." Sakura felt like she had to whisper to the girl. Sakura stood up and faced the guys who were still playing and hadn't taken any notice to her or the things she had been doing. She put both her pinkies in her mouth and let out a shrill whistle. "Hey!" she called after they had stopped and turned to her.
"Yeah?" another called back putting a hand in front of his eyes to sheild them from the sun.
"I need your help! Come please something happened! Hurry!" immediatly all the guys came running and soon were next to her confused and somewhat anxious. "I need you guys to help me with her I don't know what happened. I just found her." the guys looked over to Sammy and helped pick her up shock and worry clearly evident in their eyes.
The football players followed Sakura, even the one's who weren't doing anything. Professor's were found wandering and in a matter of minuets the whole staff was notified about the girl. Police and an ambulance were soon in afterwards and Sakura including the football players had been questioned. And now Sakura sat in her dorm staring out the window trying to get her brain to work.
"Hey Sakura? You okay?" Marina asked her as she sat next to her and handed her a glass of water.
"Yeah i'm fine. I'm just really confused." she said continuing to stare outside.
"Don't worry things will be alright. Do you know what happened to her?" Marina asked carefully in case this was tender turf.
"She was raped, she told them she was raped by two guys and they dumped her there to get rid of her."
"Well let's just be glad that she's alive and okay. We'll visit her tomorrow in the hospital alright?" Marina asked getting up and hugging her friend.
"Sure, uh, Marina?"
"Yeah."
"Do you...never mind actually." Sakura said getting up.
"You sure?"
"Positive." and she gave her friend a reasurring smile and headed up the spiral staircase to their room. But as soon as she left Marina, her smile faded.
Monday left in a hurry as well as, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thrusday, and now it was glorious Friday! Which meant Jay's...not wait...Josh's bash! Sakura had gotten over the Sammy thing as the girl had gotten better. But she couldn't help but notice that one of them was missing in the large class. But due to Sakura's busy life, she couldn't stop and think about it all. Sakura was planning on having a good time tonight if it wasn't for Marina's endless complaining about her outfits.
"Just choose one already Marina!" Sakura said from the nastily painted bathroom.
"How can I! I need something that will get me noticed!" Marina cried.
Sakura put her head out of the door and looked at Marina who was staring in the mirror. She was wearing Sakura's stillettos that reached just below the knees, and a jean body suit. It was a mini skirt so it basically only covered her butt, and it attached to the top where it zipped up the front. The thing was that it was unzipped from the top all the way down to below her belly button. Sakura's mouth fell open as she stared at her friend. That...thing, she's wearing isn't enough to get her noticed!' Sakura's mind screamed.
"Uh, Marina. I think if you went naked, you would get the same attention that you'll get tonight for wearing that." Sakura said after she popped her head back into the bathroom where she continued to apply her makeup. Marina scrunched her nose in confusion.
"What? I don't get it." Marina said still trying to think.
"Never mind. You ready to go now?" Sakura said stepping out.
"I don't,"
"Too bad I don't care!" she said grabbing her friends wrist and dragging her down the stairs, ignoring the death threats and protests her friend was giving her.
Sakura went to the door and opened it revealing two girls waiting outside one with her hand closed into a fist raised into the air as if she was about to knock.
"Wow, great timing." the dark haired one said. Sakura smiled at seeing her friends.
"Thank-you I know. Oh and it's all Marina's fault if you want to know." the three girls laughed as Marina shouted 'Hey!' at them.
The four girls linked arms and walked down the hall, definatly confident in themselves and it showed. Melodie was there and she was wearing dark capri jeans and normal black pointed high heeled shoes, and a glittering top which hung low off her chest. Her blonde hair had been done in half corn-rows and the rest just trailed down her back. Jennie, the dark haired one, had curled hair, and was wearing dark jean shorts, which were really short along with, high heeled boots like Marina's. Her top was off the shoulders and had black air brush writing which was outlined in pink saying, 'Sweet N' Innocent'. It also had two large holes on the sides exposing a lot of flesh and her hour glass figure. Sakura was wearing a black mini skirt and a black top which was pretty, just a tad revealing in the front. But the back was all strings which criss-crossed and tied up. She wore tie up stilletos which completed the outfit.
The four-some went into the elevator and got a lot of stares which didn't bother them. If any guy tried anything they were all wearing heels and knew how to use em...( not like I'VE done that before 8D.) The girls reached the main floor and headed outside to their car. Jennie excitedly removed her keys from her purse and ran over to it, unlocking it automatically from a distance. Sakura began running with the other girls when her heel caught on a crack and she fell foreward screaming her favorite word..."SHIT!" luckily Melodie and Marina had quick reflexes and caught her by her arms, though with the heels they were unsteady and all came tumbling down. Jennie already had the car started and drove up next to them, laughing madly.
"Stupid Dave, jinxed me." Sakura said getting up and making sure she wasn't dirty.
"Get in already we're going to be laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaatttttttttttttteeeeeeeeeeee!" Jennie whined as the girls slowly got into the car. The girls had been driving for twenty minutes when Jennie asked for the directions to the place. Sakura who was in the passenger seat looked over to her, and Jennie stared back.
"Weeeellll?" she said extending her hand expectedly.
"Uh...about that. I don't have, them." Sakura said looking at her out of the corner of her eye.
"What! Come on Sakura! How could you forget!"
"Well I had to deal with Marina and her freakin' eye problems!" she said indicating to the clothing. Marina just stared blankly at Sakura from the back seat of the sports car.
"Eye problems?" she asked. Everyone in the car groaned as Jennie turned around quite fast making the car screech. After a good ten minutes had passed, and everyone already getting tired from driving so much Marina spoke up.
"Hey guys I have them! They were in my purse the whole time!" Marina said happily, dropping the lip gloss she was getting and finding the bright yellow paper.
Jennie reached back with a free hand and snatched the paper from her, mumbling."Give me that!" and reading the directions, she didn't even stop as she turned the car again forcefully, and the girls felt like they were in the Fast and the Furious. "Stupid brawd, doesn't even think about checking her purse." she continued mumbling, while she handed the paper to Sakura then snatched it back.
"What?" Sakura asked the girl beside her.
"You, are a klutz and accident prone, so no way in hell am I going to trust you with this." she said waving the paper.
"Another one! I am not a Klutz!"
"Yes you are!" Marina chanted from the back but was immediatly hit on the back of the head."What was that for!"
"For being an idiot, and a retard for not checking your purse!" Melodie said.
The bickering continued for the rest of the drive, and Jennie parked the car and began to rub her temples. Trying her best to ignore her friends she looked at the club where music was pumping loudly through the walls and some pretty sexy guys were smoking outside...beside some pretty whore-ish girls...
"Guess it's the competition of the sluts." the girls looked up at Jennie confused and she looked at their clothing. "Yupp definatly."
"Well come on already we have to have fun!" Marina said fixing her sleek ponytail in the rear view mirror.
"I don't know if I trust your definition of fun." Sakura said stepping out of the car.
"Oh you will." and with that Marina just ran off inside the club.
"Thanks for waiting." Melodie said, but then her face brightened.
"3...2...1" Sakura and Jennie chanted and then Melodie began to squeal in delight.
"Steve!" Melodie said happily running to a guy with sandy brown hair and green eyes.
"Yeah we'll catch up with you two later." Jennie said sarcastidly as both girls passed their pair who were currently sucking eachothers faces off.
"You leave me, you die." Sakura said grabbing Jennie's elbow.
"Okay, okay." Jennie said in defeat, she had just caught the eye of a extremely good looking guy too.
The two danced the night away on the crowded dance floor, and showed of their moves knowing exactly the right way to do them, hey all the classes had to be good for something. After the song ended both girls agreed to take a break since they had been dancing seven songs straight. They somehow manuvered their way through the crowd getting away from the guys the grabbed them to dance...and in other places. Finally reaching the bar in one piece they ordered their drinks and sat back to take a good look at everything.
"He's cute." Jennie said pointing to a blonde guy who was talking to his friends.
"So's he." Sakura said pointing to a balck haired one who was wearing glasses ( cough hint cough).
"and him...and him...him too...and him." Jennie continued and Sakura followed her pointed finger. There was one with a shaved head...yeah he was pretty cute. One with corn rows he was okay, another with brown messy hair and brownish eyes (cough hint cough) yupp he was definatly cute, and another with jelled curly hair meh he was okay.
"I'm bored now." Jennie said downing her drink. "Ooooooooh lookie!" she hinted Sakura quickly, and tried to look normal.
"What?" Sakura whispered back trying to figure what was so important."
"A guys coming...and great...so's the M&M's." Sure enough there was a guy coming and in the other direction the two M's, Marina and Melodie. Both groups reached the girls at the same time.
"Hey you guys what are you doing here all by yourselves?" Melodie asked clinging onto Steve.
"Just taking a breather." Jennie said but then Steve spoke up.
"Hey man!" he said to the guy that came and did that guy thing that guys do.( you know they grab eachothers hand and do some weird thingy and sorta hug...dont feel like explaining it now.) "When did you get here."
"Three hours ago?" said the shaved guy."Who's your friends?" he asked looking at Jennie and Sakura.
"Oh, this is my girlfriend Melodie."
"Hey." she said.
"Marina, Jennie, and Sakura." everyone nodded and said their hello's.
Soon though more people joined the group knowing various people...even the guys Jennie and Sakura were checking out came. In mere seconds Sakura had about twenty peoples names rammed into her head and she was trying to remember them all. Okay, dude with the blonde hair was, Dan...no wait it was Jessie...whatever didn't matter, he wasn't that cute up close anyway. The guy with the black hair and glasses was Eriol she was sure...I think...The guy with the shaved head was Syaoran...no it was Dan...no Jessie...maybe it was Ben. The brown haired guy was...erm...was, Kevin...Wait a minute! HE was Syaoran...Kevin where did she get that from? Oh well it was no use. She was snapped back to reality when Melodie was pulling on her arm.
"Huh?" Sakura said and looked blankly at her friend.
"You didn't hear a single word I said did you?" Melodie said her face going to a one that showed she went through this many times.
"Erm, if I say yes would you believe me?" Sakura asked innocently sipping on her drink. Everyone immediatly burst out into laughter.
"I said that when school break comes we're all going to chill at Steve's house!"
"What!" Sakura said putting her drink down. "When did I agree to this?"
"Whats wrong Saks? I'm not good enough for you?" Steve asked pretending to be hurt.
"Yeah sorry." Sakura said pretending to be really sorry. Melodie slapped his arm and glared at him."
"Youuuuuuuuuuuu" she jabbed her finger at his chest."Don't have to be good enough for her, and you!" she turned to Sakura who grabbed onto Jennie, who was extremly surprised because one second she's talking with the sexy black haired dude then facing a rabid Melodie.
"I didn't do it!" Jennie said putting her arms up in defense.
"Your all coming! Me, Marina, and Jennie. You have to come Sakura! We're staying at his cousins house! It's humungo!" she exclaimed happily. "And by a beach!"
"Okay I guess then," But Sakura was cut short when the sound of gunshots filled the air.
Immediatly everyone dropped to the floor and put their hands over their heads. Sakura felt her friends around her trying to huddle up in a weak gesture of safety. Sakura had no idea what was going on and she felt as if she was going to have a panic attack but she tried to keep herself calm because hyperventalating (sp?) at a time like this was not a good idea. Her senses grew sharper, she was made aware of the cold floor pressing against her chest, she felt hers and everyone else quickened breathing, she could hear her heartbeat thuding loudly, heck she could hear her blood flowing through her veins...and then she heard a door slam shut. Sakura didn't dare raise her head because right now she realized how fond of her head she was.
"Everybody they're gone, get up." Sakura lifted her head and couldn't believe the guy actually risked his head being blown off. But sure enough the people with the guns left and everyone was getting up confused and began whispering to one another. But soon enough it was noisy as hell as everyone began freaking out about what happened and checking to see if their friends were alright. Sakura was getting annoyed how Melodie, Marina and Jennie were fussing over her though nothing was wrong at all.
"Guys somebody call an ambulance!" a guy yelled from on top of the bar's counter. With all the noise no one heard him. "Theres a girl back there on the floor she's been shot and she doesn't have any clothes on." a feeling of dread entered Sakura. She and all her new and old friends ran to the back door and sure enough there was a girl laying right behind the door, completly naked and shot in the leg, and stomach. She was unconcious, but what really scared Sakura was she knew the girl...she was in her ballet class.
