The Missing Sailor

Chapter 5.

God! Sakura is going to pay!

Sam was sitting by Emma's hospital bed. Emma had gotten to the ER just in time. They were there for an hour before her parents had shown up. Mrs. Hanzo had been teaching a class when another teacher had run in saying that her daughter was in the hospital. Emma's parents and his sisters were in the cafeteria getting something to eat since Emma wasn't in danger anymore, but he didn't want to leave her. She had been asleep for a while now. She was exhausted after they gave her the medicine to get her breathing under control. Rini had given him Sakura's cell phone number to call. He wanted her to see what she had done. If Sam had known she had asthma and that stress would make it worse, he would have torn that note to pieces. Sam reached into his pocket and pulled out his cell phone. He dialed the digits and listened for an answer.

" Hello?" Sakura answered.

" Sakura, it's me!" sam said. He was very angry. He tried to keep his cool.

" OH! Sam, did you get my note?" she asked with delight.

" Yes. And Emma did too!"

" but, I said not to show it to her!"

" oh, well she got it from me"

" oh well, what's your answer! "

" Before I tell you, you have to meet me at the hospital!"

" You're at the hospital! Oh my god, what happened? Are you okay" Sakura asked.

" I'm fine! But you better get your ass over here right now! Room 772. Good bye!" he yelled. He hung up the phone and sat back in his chair. He looked at Emma.

She is gorgeous. Even when she is so sick.

" SAM!" Sam turned to see Sakura standing behind him. " What happened, why aren't you in bed?" Sam stood up. He was at least three inches taller than her.

" I'm not the one who was admitted!" he yelled in her face. She flinched at his anger. " You had to write that note! You had to tell me lies!" Sakura looked up at him. She saw tears forming in his blue eyes.

" Sam? I-I don't know what you mean. If you're not in the bed who is?" Sam pointed to the hospital bed. Sakura gasped when she saw who was laying in the bed. " Oh my-, how is this my fault?" she yelled back.

" Emma has asthma! When she read the letter you wrote, she got stressed and it triggered an attack! YOU caused this! YOU DID!" Sam yelled. " SHE ALMOST DIED BECAUSE OF YOUR JEALOUSY!" Sakura was silent.

" Sam, I- I'm sorry." Sakura said. She hugged Sam, but he shoved her away.

" Don't apologize to me, apologize to her and her family!" sam said coldly, " and after this, don't even think of doing anything to Emma again. I don't think you should even talk to her unless you are apologizing!"

"But she isn't awake."

" I know that, you are going to sit here until her family comes back and until she wakes up!" he growled as he grabbed her arm and sat her in the chair. When Sakura looked up at him she took out her cell phone and dialed.

" Hi mom, it's me. I know its almost 5:00 but I'm going to be home late tonight . . . . A girl from school is in the hospital because of me. . . . I'll explain later. . . Bye" Sakura hung up and put the phone back in her purse. They sat there for 15 minutes before Josh ran into the room with Mina.

" Sam, what happened, where's Emma?" he said. When he saw his sister in the bed on the oxygen mask he fell to his knees. " she had an asthma attack?" he cried. Sam nodded and handed Josh the note that caused all of this. Josh was red in the face when he ripped the paper down the middle. " Who is Sakura?" he asked. Sakura stood up and looked at the boy.

" Don't worry Josh. I yelled at her enough. I think we should let Emma get her say in first." Sam said. Emma groaned in the bed and slowly opened her eyes. When she remembered what had happened almost two hours earlier she sat upright. She screamed a little and pilled the mask off her face. Sam ran to her side and grabbed her hand. " Emma why didn't you tell me that you had breathing problems?" he cried. She looked down at him. He had more tears running down his face. She smiled and wiped them off.

" I didn't tell you because I didn't want you to worry about me. But I'm fine now. See?" Emma took in a long deep breath and let it out. Sam didn't look reassured. Emma looked around the room. She saw Josh and he came over and hugged her. She kissed him on the cheek. Then Emma saw the last person she wanted to see. Sakura had showed up unwanted once that day, she wasn't up for another visit. Emma glared at her. Sakura glared back. " Josh, leave." Emma said. Josh argued for a moment and saw the anger on her face and ducked out of the room quickly and closed the door.

" Emma, I-I" Sakura started as she stepped back. Emma stared back at her and swung her feet over the side of the bed and went to stand up. Sam stopped her.

" Emma, wait, you" Emma seemed to have steam shooting out of her nose. She looked at him with a evil look in her eyes. He swore she had little flames replacing her pupils. " no, Emma, you're going to rip out your IV. Let me roll the stand over here" Emma smiled slightly and immediately let the flames pop up again. Sam rolled the IV over to her and she grabbed it. Sam stood behind her blushing. Emma turned to him.

" What?" Emma asked when she realized that the back of her hospital gown was open and was revealing her bra and underwear. Emma rolled her eyes. " If you don't like it, then turn away!" she scowled. Sam blushed even more but didn't turn away. Emma laughed and turned back to Sakura. She growled and made her way to her. " YOU!" she breathed. Sakura opened her mouth to say something but no words came out. So instead she just stood there gaping. " do you know how much trouble you caused today?" Sakura nodded her head up and down. " I want to get one thing through your empty little hair sprayed head! Sam is no longer on the market! And he never will be again if I can help it. If you ever, EVER try to take him away again I will personally kick you to the U.S. See how you like living in another country, I at least knew how to speak Japanese when I moved here. Can you speak English?" Sakura shook her head. " well then you better BACK YOU LITTLE BONEY BUTT OFF MY BOYFRIEND!" she screamed. Emma stopped and started wheezing again. Sam came running with her inhaler. Emma took it, shook it and sprayed the gas into her mouth and held her breath. After a few seconds she let out her breath and grabbed onto Sam to help her back into bed. As they walked to the bed, he looked at her backside for another glance at her underwear. Emma slapped him over the head. " You're as bad as Josh!" She yelled playfully. She climbed under the covers and turned on the tv with her remote. Josh climbed into the bed beside her so Sakura could take the seat. Minutes later both the Hanzo's and the Tsukino's walked into the room. Mrs. Hanzo squealed and ran to her daughter kissing her face.

" oh, Emma! I am so glad. .( Kiss, kiss, kiss). . . you're alright. . ( kiss, kiss, kiss)" Emma hugged her mother back and let go unfortunately Mrs. Hanzo didn't let go.. MR. Hanzo came over and kissed Emma on the forehead.

" Easy Beth, she's going to have another asthma attack if you squeeze her like that!" he laughed. Mrs. Hanzo let go of Emma. Emma sunk back into sam's arms.

" Why is this young man still here? I know he brought her in but, there is really no need.."

" Mom, this is Sam, my boyfriend" Emma said. Mrs.Hanzo frowned.

" Emma Rose, I honestly think you are too young for a boyfriend! You are only 13, and I don't know him!"

" Beth, this is Kenji Tsukino's son! You spoke to Serena his daughter on the phone, She told you what happened to Emma."

" Oh, Serena, the little matchmaker? She said that her brother was in her grade. How old is he?"

" I'm 14."

" SEE!"

" I am in ninth grade. But I do really like Emma"

" And Rini is in eighth grade?" Mrs. Hanzo said rubbing her head from a headache.

" yes" Rini replied Just then the doctor came in. She gasped when she saw so many people.

" Okay, visiting hours have been long over. One person can take the other bed to stay with her, but everyone else has to go!" everyone looked at each other.

" Well, Hotaka, who should stay?" Mrs. Hanzo asked her husband. MR. Hanzo looked over at Emma and Sam watching tv together. He leaned over to the doctor.

" do you have security camera's in the room?" he whispered in her ear.

" Why, yes, of course we do, it's hospital policy!" she replied, although very confused.

" Beth, maybe sam should stay with her. He was the one who got her here when I tried to call you, when you SHUT your phone OFF!" he said. Mrs. Hanzo blushed ans started to speak to him in English. They argued for a moment. Finally they turned to the rest of the group.

" Kenji, Ikuko, if it is alright with you, we would like Sam to stay with Emma tonight."

MR. And Mrs. Tsukino smiled and agreed. Then Mr.Hanzo turned to the couple they were talking about.

" MR. TSUKINO!" he roared. Sam jumped and looked at the 'lion' that was yelling his formal name. " I am leaving the safety of my only daughter in your hands. My wife and I are going out to dinner with your parents and your sisters and Josh are going to meet up with your friends. You are the only one left to stay the night with her. Can I trust you!" Sam nodded. MR. Hanzo changed his expression to ' over protective father' to ' nice over protective father' then Mrs. Hanzo noticed Sakura sitting in the chair staring in complete horror of the families arguing and crying and yelling.

" Hello, and you are?" Mrs. Hanzo asked.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Sam had stayed with Emma that night. He obeyed his orders and stayed in the separate bed. Not that he was going to do otherwise. Sakura apologized to the Hanzo family. Emma still hated her guts. Thanks to Mrs. Hanzo, she found a catholic priest in Tokyo to perform Mass while Emma was in the hospital. Then she went home to rest. Mrs. Hanzo made her stay in bed all Sunday. She even had Sam carry her to and from the car when they took her home. Emma begged her mother to let her go to school the next day, she gave in and allowed her to get an education. Then Emma spent the rest of the day reading, eating, and sleeping.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

" Wake up sunshine. I'm taking you to school!" Emma heard a male voice whisper in her ear. Her brain was too tired to actually recognize the voice. Then she felt lips against hers. She was awake now. Her eyes flew open and she went to sit up but hers and Sam's heads banged into each other. They both fell back on the bed rolling around in pain. Emma sat up again. She looked at sam laying on the foot of her bed.

" SAM!" She yelled. She leaned over to him and rubbed his head. " I 'm so sorry." Sam was blushing. " What now?" she looked down to see that he had a great view down her shirt.

" YOU PIG!" she screamed shoving him out into the hallway. Minutes later she came out of the bedroom in her school uniform. She had her hair pulled up in a ponytail. She had the necklace Rini gave her around her neck.

" Are you wearing the bracelet?" He asked her. She smiled and pulled her sleeve up to reveal the golden charm bracelet. He smiled and hugged her. " so how was I?" he asked.

" huh?" Emma looked up at him. Then she remembered. He had just kissed her!

" oh..er.."

" It's okay, you were caught by surprise" he smiled. He was hurt but she was waking up, she didn't expect him to kiss her. He probably could have been more romantic about it too. Emma took his hand and dragged him downstairs. She walked into the kitchen and sat at the table.

" Josh, do I dare eat a muffin today? Or am I going to have to fish crumbs out of my nostrils again?"

" I'll be good today" Josh replied. He went to ruffle her hair but his hand got smacked out of the way by Sam. Sam looked over and smiled. " Your lucky my sister likes you, otherwise you would be with that stack of pancakes over there." Josh pointed to the plate of hot cakes. Sam still smiled. Emma took his hand under the table.

" um.. Emma, do you think you could make me a sandwich ? Serena made lunch and my rice doesn't smell like it's edible." he said. Emma laughed. " I think it moved when I put the container in the lunch box. I swear, Serena's food is alive!" Emma laughed even louder. She took a quick look at her watch.

" holy crap! Sam we gotta run! If we're walking to school we have to leave now!" she grabbed his arm and dragged him outside. She stopped in her tracks when she saw what was outside. Sam was walking over to his black bike. He pulled out a helmet.

" I thought I'd give you a ride." Sam said. " I got it for my birthday." Emma smiled and took the spare helmet and climbed up onto the bike. There was a seat on the back for an extra person. Sam put his helmet on and climbed on in front of her. Emma wrapped her arms around his waist and they took off.

They were at school fifteen minutes before home room. Emma got off the bike first, then Sam. She walked with him when he stored the bike in the bicycle rack. Emma turned around to see Sakura coming. She had obviously gotten over her guilt. Aya and Chidori were right behind her. Emma backed up into Sam. He turned around and saw Sakura coming. He hugged her around her waist and held her close. Emma knew he was doing that to make her jealous but she still liked it. Sakura looked mad when she saw that, but that was the reaction they wanted. Sakura came up and kicked Emma in the shin, hard. Emma fell to the ground. Tears rolled down her face as she rubbed her leg. She stood up and turned around. She hated what she saw. Sakura was holding onto Sam around his waist. Emma grabbed on Sakura's collar and pulled her away. She screamed. Aya and Chidori grabbed Emma by her harms and held her back. These girls were stronger than they looked.. Emma struggled to get free, but they were really, really strong. Emma was getting exhausted. She felt her lungs constricting. The burning in her chest was coming back. Emma looked at Sam. He looked in her eyes. He knew what was happening. She had that same look she had that day when she was put in the hospital. Emma had enough energy to call out one name. Sam had run to get her purse.

" JOOOOOOOSSSSSSSHHHHHHH!" she screamed. She used the last bit of air to call to her brother. Apparently she was loud enough and Josh was there in seconds. Mina, Serena, Ami and Rini came too. Mina and Serena pulled the girls off of Emma. Emma fell into Ami's arms. Emma was wheezing really hard. Sam was there soon after. He had stuffed her inhaler in her mouth and pushed down to spray the medication. Rini ran to get a teacher. Sam gave her the second puff into her mouth and took her in his arms. Her breathing was regular now. She had fallen asleep in his arms. He went straight over to Sakura.

" You will never have me. I am with Emma. And I'm not going anywhere. You stay away. You can expect to find your ass in the principal's office." he yelled and ran Emma to the nurse. The girls and Josh were soon behind.

Emma woke up in the nurse's office. She sat up and took a deep breath. Her attack was gone.

" oh. You are awake. Good. You have five minutes until home room. But I was told to send you to the principal's office, first, I have to check your breathing." the nurse said buzzing through the room. The nurse took a stethoscope and listened to her breathing. " Your lungs sound good. I was surprised to see you in Sam Tsukino's arms. He has always seemed scared when he came here. Scared of me at least. He's also afraid of cat's. I don't know why though." the nurse babbled on and on until Emma had to stop her.

" Um. You said I had to go to Mr.Kamasuni's"

" oh. Yes, go ahead." Emma bowed and left for the hallways. Luckily for her the attendance office was next door. She walked into the office and found all of the witnesses their.

Serena. Mina, Ami, Rini, Josh, Sam, Sakura, Aya, and Chidori. Emma stepped back when she saw Sakura and her crew.

" Miss Hanzo, I hope you are feeling better. I heard you took a trip to the hospital and I wasn't sure if you were going to come today"

" No . I came." Emma said. She took the empty seat between sam and Josh. Rini was behind her and put her hand on Emma's shoulder. Emma looked back and smiled. Then she realized that she hadn't paid much attention to Rini. But Rini was there anyway. Emma smiled again and took Sam and Josh' hands. Both of the boys smiled. She loved her family and her friends. They had been there for her both times she got sick. She especially loved Sam. She hadn't know him very long but then she remembered what her dad told her when she was younger.

" If you meet a guy who is willing to come for you when your in trouble or if you are really sick, then her is the guy that WILL stick around for as long as you let him. Get a guy like that and you'll know you can marry him, and know that he loves you"

Her dad told her that every time he got the chance as she got older. She never really thought much of it until she met Sam. She did love Sam. And he cared for her when she was in trouble and when she was sick. She smiled even more. Now if only Sakura could see that.

" Emma, I need you to tell me what happened." Mr.Kamasuni told her. " from the beginning , when you went to the hospital, obviously your asthma is tied into this"

" Okay. I went to the mall with Sam. We were at the bus stop when Sakura came. She got mad when Sam told her we were going out. Later that day she left a note to him saying bad stuff about me and how she wanted to go to the dance with him. I read it and I stressed out and it triggered an asthma attack. When my dad tried to give me my albuteral we found out that it was empty, I panicked and my attack got even worse. That's when I was landed in the hospital. Then today, Sakura knew what happened so she went over to Sam again and tried to take him, her friends held onto me so I could tire myself out. I don't know if they knew it would trigger an attack, but I know they didn't stop when I started wheezing. I had to call for Josh and hid friends to help me. All I remember after that is sam gave me my medicine and I passed out and woke up in the nurse's office." Emma said explaining what happened. Mr.Kamasuni looked at Sakura.

" Did you really do all of that?"

" yes sir."

" Did you know she had asthma?"

" no sir" Sakura lied. Sam didn't take that. He immediately jumped out of his set and pulled Emma up with him.

" You lying witch!" Sam yelled. " You knew she had Asthma! I got you to get over to the hospital and apologize to her and her family! You knew her lungs were weak since she JUST got out of the hospital!"

" MR. Tsukino, I think that's enough. Can anyone here tell me if Sakura did actually go to the hospital and apologized to Emma's family?" Josh, Serena, Mina, and Rini raised their hands. " I see. Sakura, obviously you knew why Emma was in the hospital. And for lying like this you just received a detention. And you three," Mr.Kamasuni looked at Sakura, Aya, and Chidori. " you three are going home for a week, with a suspension for putting a student's life and health in danger. Starting now."

" BUT sir, the Autumn Formal is on Friday!" Sakura pleaded.

" I know that, and obviously you didn't have a date since you had the urge to steal someone else's. You and not permitted to go to the dance." Mr.Kamasuni added. Sakura looked at Emma and Sam. Then she looked at their linked hands. She scoffed and left. Aya and Chidori followed. " Okay. Emma, you have been excused form P.E. today since you had breathing problems. The rest of you, if Sakura causes anymore trouble, come tell me. She is a very jealous little girl who doesn't know when to stop." Everyone nodded and bowed before they left. When they reached the hallway there were six people around Emma giving a big group hug. Josh picked her up and swung her around. Then everyone else took their turn to hug her. Ami, then Serena, then Rini, then Mina, then Sam. Sam held on to her longer then anyone else. Emma felt good. Besides the fact her lungs hurt when she took a really deep breath. But otherwise she felt good in Sam's arms. Sam walked Emma and Rini to home room. With Sakura gone she had nothing to worry about. To Emma's surprise she had the same home room as Sam. Before they went in Sam stopped her. " Hey, Emma."

" what?"

" do you want to try that kiss again later." he smiled.

" how about the dance" Emma smiled back. " It would make it seem like a love story."

" Kay," Sam replied. Emma smiled back and took his hand. She leaned up and kissed him on the cheek. Sam blushed.

" That's to hold you off until then" she smiled. Sam nodded and walked into the room with her. The home room was an assortment of grades. There were seniors and freshmen, and junior high kids. " How come kids from different grades are in this homeroom?"

" months in when people were born. This is June, July, August kids."

" Oh, So Josh is in the room for January"

" Yeah. Serena should be here soon. Rini and her have the same birthday."

" Speak of the devil" Emma said as Serena ruffled Sam's brown hair.

" Sammy, I'm gonna steal your girlfriend tonight. We are taking Rini to the mall. Girls only" Serena smiled.

" Errr...okay." Sam said relectently. " You can help her find some more stuff for the dance" Emma smiled and hugged him. Then they sat in home room. Since sam was older than her they had no classes together until lunch. But they met each other between classes. Everyone was nice to Emma when they heard Sakura caused her to spend 24 hours in the hospital. She was happy. Very, very happy.

A.N) okay, I know I said Sakura would get her ass kicked. But she did get her ass kicked out of school! Sam wouldn't hurt a girl, I hope you like the next chapter!
