YAY I FINALLY FINISHED IT. Oh wait, it's not ten oclock at night. LOL. I usually finish late at night, but meeeeh. Now I have to do smelly homework ;_;
Some crazy shit goes on in this chapter, you have been warned…sort of. HAHA. GET MY PUN-CRAZY? HAHAHAHA. HAHA. HA. Ok I'll shut up now.
Enjoy!
Fai looked up as his brother entered the room, shutting the door behind him. "How's Sakura?" Yuui asked, worry dimming his eyes. Fai looked out the window behind his desk, "She hasn't woken up in the last three days." He answered. "Does Syaoran know why yet?" Yuui asked curiously. "He said it could be anything; however he did say that it may have something to do with her no longer wishing to wake up." Fai murmured. "So it was Satoshi that set her off?" his brother asked. "It seems that way, but I have no proof of him doing anything to Sakura." Fai spat. "I always thought that Satoshi was an odd one." Yuui said as he looked up in thought.
Chii sat in Syaoran's office on his desk talking to the doctor about Sakura. "She woken up yet?" Chii asked, poking him with her foot. "She hasn't." Syaoran replied sitting back in his chair. "Bugger." Chii muttered. "I can only hope that she wakes soon." Syaoran sighed. "Someone's worried about her." Chii giggled. "Why wouldn't I? She is my patient." He retorted. "Oh come on-I saw you blushing when she looked into your eyes, begging for your presence." Chii winked. "Oh please-I'm just her doctor. I can't have that sort of relationship with a patient…" he looked away, wondering through his thoughts. "Sure you can, just keep it secret." Chii laughed. "Chii!"
"Oh come on Syaoran! I'm with Fai, and he's technically my boss!" the blonde said quite happily.
"That's not the point…" Syaoran muttered.
"I think you're afraid of harming her, aren't you?" Chii raised her eyebrows, smiling.
"Can we drop this please?" Syaoran asked irritably.
Chii smiled and didn't say a word, dropping the topic entirely. "By the way, Fai wants to speak with you about an important matter." She said casually. "Now?" Syaoran asked. "As soon as possible." Chii replied. Syaoran stood up and left the room, walking slowly down the hallway to the elevator. He was thinking about Sakura and her pleading eyes, pleading for him to stay with her. His chest felt heavy at the thought of her never waking up again, but somehow he knew that she would-she had to. He stepped into the elevator and pressed floor ten, and waited for the doors to close. He felt the elevator go up and come to a stop on the floor he wanted, stepping out onto the carpeted floor and walking down the long hallway to Fai's office. He knocked on the door, waiting for his friends answer. "Come in." Fai called out. Syaoran opened the door to find Yuui sitting in one of the chairs with his legs crossed reading a book. "You wanted to talk to me about something…?" Syaoran asked. "Yeah, come take a seat." Fai said, gesturing towards the other chair beside Yuui. Fai's brother finished reading the page he was on and closed the book, placing it down in front of him on the desk. "I know I've asked a lot of you by just requesting that you look after Sakura, but I was wondering if you'd be able to do something for me." Fai started off. Syaoran looked at him puzzled, "Sure, what's up?" Syaoran replied. "I was sort of hoping that Sakura might be able to stay with you at your residence where she could be safe from harm…" Fai said. What he was asking was big, but Syaoran immediately understood. "She's not safe at her own residence is she?" He said. Yuui shook his head. "No, she's not. This is something that as part of the FBI, have requested that she doesn't stay with family." Yuui explained. "If you don't mind me asking, why?" the doctor asked. "We currently believe that her offender knows where all of her safe spots are-home, family etc. I've been given the task of finding someone who would be able to take her in until this case is closed, so none of the other agents have been told about this. It's strictly confidential." Yuui answered. "I see…If there is any way that I can help then I will." Syaoran said. Fai smiled, "Thanks-I knew I could count on you."
Chii skipped down the hallway to Sakura's room, waving to a few of the other nurses as they walked by. No one would have guessed that she was the head nurse with her childish behaviour such as her skipping or the random attacks on Syaoran she produces. She opened Sakura's door, eyes widening as she walked in. "You're awake!" she exclaimed. Sakura looked over; her face was emotionless, and her eyes dull. "Sakura…?" Chii called out her name. "Chii…is that you…?" she whispered. "Yes, I'm here right beside you…how are you feeling today hun?" Chii asked, sitting down beside Sakura. "What happened…?" Sakura asked. Chii had a flashback of the events that occurred three days ago. "An agent-Satoshi I think it was-came to visit you…you had a fit…" Chii replied, worried for Sakura. The girls' face turned pale upon hearing the name Satoshi. "Is-is he still here?" Sakura asked quickly, fear filling her deep green eyes. "No, he's gone and he'll never be seeing you again-at least not over my dead body!" Chii replied. "What do you mean…?" Sakura asked, confusion replacing the fear. "What I mean is that as long as I'm around with you then he won't be seeing a glimpse of your beautiful face!" Chii said confidently. "You'd protect me…? But why?" She asked again. "What do you mean 'why'? Because we're friends of course!" Chii smiled. Sakura's eyes widened, "Friends?" she said. "Yeah." The nurse replied. Feelings of joy swelled up inside Sakura. "Thank you so much." Sakura smiled, tears of happiness falling down her face. "I promise I won't let anyone else hurt you ever! Just let me know and I'll beat them to a pulp to teach 'em a lesson!" Chii declared. Sakura snorted with laughter, amused with her friends' actions. "Thanks Chii." Sakura smiled warmly.
Syaoran opened the door to Sakura's room to find her awake and having a lively chat with Chii, laughing and smiling. Sakura looked up and made eye contact with him, smiling and waving. "Hi!" she said. "It's good to see that you're awake and smiling Sakura." Syaoran smiled. "So doc, what did he want?" Chii asked Syaoran, referring to their small conversation earlier. "I was just getting to that." Syaoran sighed. "What are you talking about?" Sakura asked. Syaoran sat down in another seat next to Chii and began explaining what was going to be happening. "In a few days' time we will be moving you to stay at my place until this case is solved." He said. Chii's jaw dropped and Sakura looked at him quizzically. "Why?" the two girls asked at the same time. "For extra protection. Yuui and Kurogane will be dropping by occasionally to check up on things, so I've given Fai the two spare keys to my house." Syaoran answered. Sakura looked a little relieved upon hearing that it would only be Yuui and Kurogane dropping in from her headquarters, and no one else. "I came to check to see if Sakura was alright with this agreement." Syaoran said. Chii looked at Sakura, waiting for an answer. "Why can't I stay with Fai or Yuui?" She asked. "Because the offender apparently knows where all your safe spots are. And you wouldn't be able to stay with Chii because she lives with Fai." Syaoran looked out the corner of his eyes at the nurse who grinned. "Well that makes sense." Chii laughed. Sakura seemed to be content with the decision, and nodded her head. "I'm fine with it…but only if you're alright with it as well…" she mumbled. "I'm perfectly happy for you to stay with me at my place. There's more to do there then here in this small room." He answered with a smile. "Thanks Syaoran…" Sakura smiled, looking down at her hands as she blushed. "Alright, so Sakura's going to be staying at your place starting when?" Chii asked, looking at the doctor. "Well today is Thursday, so they were talking about Saturday…" Syaoran replied. "Hmm, ok then. I'll be visiting a lot just so you know." Chii grinned. "Of course you will be." Syaoran muttered.
Fai headed out to his car when he found someone standing beside it dressed in a black suit with a purple tie. He had sunglasses on to hide his eyes, and messy black hair with purple tips through it. "G'day sir." The gentleman said. "What can I do for you?" Fai asked coming to a stop in front of him. "I've come to deliver a message from my boss." He replied pulling out an envelope with a wax seal on the back of it and handing it to Fai. Fai opened it and read the letter inside, looking up at the messenger. "What do you want from me?" Fai asked, beginning to feel pissed off. "Information." The man replied. "You can forget it." Fai spat. The gentleman sighed, "That's rather unfortunate then." He pulled out a cigarette and lit it, walking away with one hand in his pocket. Fai scrunched the letter in his fist, watching as he walked away. "Sakura…Chii…"
Sakura slammed her hand down on the cards, claiming the pile for herself in hers and Chii's game of Snap. "Too slow!" Sakura mocked her friend teasingly. "Oh come on!" Chii complained. "Reflexes darling." Sakura poked out her tongue, shuffling her small deck of cards to get ready for the next round. They began throwing down cards on the small table, waiting for a pair to reveal itself so that one of them could claim the pile. Syaoran watched as they played, laughing every time Chii was beaten. However he was more amused with Sakura's reaction when she missed the pair that decided the fate of the game, leading to Chii's surprise victory. "You distracted me!" Sakura claimed. "Reflexes sweet heart." Chii returned with a wink. "Could I play?" Syaoran asked, highly amused. "Sure, but I think I'll sit this one out-my hand hurts from being slapped." Chii said, swapping spots with Syaoran. Sakura shuffled the cards and parted the deck so that both halves were roughly the same, and handed one half to her opponent. Sakura eyed the cards carefully as she flipped the next card onto the pile and as Syaoran did the same. The suspense was intoxicating, and Chii jumped when Syaoran claimed the cards before Sakura could. Sakura glared at him as he gave her a smug look while shuffling his cards. Chii watched as the game went on for a good thirty minutes, and even then there was still no winner decided. Syaoran however had most of the cards, so he was the expected winner of the game. Sakura sneezed and sent the cards flying into Syaoran's face, making Chii laugh hysterically. "Oh my god, that was amazing!" the blonde laughed. Syaoran raised an eyebrow at Sakura, "Was that really necessary?" he asked. "Better out than in I always say." She smiled.
Odd game of cards to have, but hey, who cares. Review?
