Please Daddy, I've Been A Good Girl


"When I see your smile
Tears roll down my face
I can't replace

And now that I'm strong I have figured out
How this world turns cold and it breaks through my soul,
And I know I'll find deep inside me, I can be the one

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all,
Even if saving you sends me to heaven"

Yuuki couldn't express how happy she was. She was finally allowed to leave this place. Allowed to go to a whole new world and start over in a place where no one knew her past. No one knew her. Most people would be scared, terrified, unsure. But Yuuki, she had been waiting her whole life for this moment. So filled with confidence and excitement, Yuuki took a step forward and out into a new world.

When Sakura wrote this in her journal she was filled with butterflies in her stomach. She was too excited. But then as she looked down at her journal she realized, it was just a story.

MONDAY

It was half way through fifth period now, and Sasuke was becoming worried. Mr. Hatake had only asked her to stay after class to talk for a few minutes. Obviously not for the whole period seeing as he said he'd write her a note.

'Where is she?'

...

...

...

...

'I'm a good girl.' Sakura was still sitting on the floor with her arms around her knees which were brought up to her chin. Tears left their stains on her cheeks. Mr. Hatake couldn't believe what just happened. How could he have been so blind? The girl in his class who he teaches everyday, except Thursdays, who sleeps through or drifts off every time... is a victim of abuse. And he didn't even catch on to it.

Mr. Hatake continued to sit in the desk, staring at Sakura, waiting till she was back in her correct state of mind. Sakura soon stopped crying and looked up. She noticed she was in her math class. On her right was the trash can, which stood only about two feet tall, and on her left was the recycle bin which Sakura noticed not a lot of kids knew what recycling was. Looking straight ahead was...Mr. Hatake?

'But what is he doing here?' Standing up, Sakura wiped off any dirt from the rug she may have gotten on the back of her pants.

"Mr. Hatake, what is going on?" Being pulled from his thoughts, Mr. Hatake looked up at the girl who just spoke.

"What do you mean Sakura?" Confusion set in.

"Where is the rest of the class?" Mr. Hatake rose from his seat.

"Sakura, it's fifth period." Looking up at the clock, he continued. "Actually, it's almost your lunch period." Sakura's eyes widened as she hastily looked at the clock. And there is was in bold red block letters.

11:59.

Fifth period for Sakura ended at twelve-oh-five.

'CRAP! What the hell happened?!' Mr. Hatake took a step towards Sakura and noticed she didn't retreat away from him like she did half an hour ago.

"Sakura...are you...," He couldn't continue, he couldn't think of the right thing to ask, the right words to use. Sakura was watching her math teacher as his face scrunched in deep thought and his eyes were closed. Hereally was deep in thought.

"Mr. Hatake?" Opening his eyes, he asked the only way he could. Directly.

"Sakura, are you abused?" There wasn't a smile on Sakura's face. There wasn't any tears either. There was just a blank look. Mr. Hatake didn't like it. Whenever her face looked like that, she always left her "correct state of mind" as he would say.

How could she possibly answer this?! Sakura started to panic. If she told him, he would contact the school, but if she didn't, Sakura had a feeling he would know she was lying. God, what the hell?! So instead she stayed quiet.

"Sakura, I need you to answer me. If you are a victim of abuse we need to stop it so you don't get hu,-"

"So I don't what?! What can you do?! There's nothing you can do Mr. Hatake?! Nothing! NOTHING!" Sakura had given in to answering, but honestly, what the hell could the school do?!

Not a fucking thing. Nothing! There was nothing! Nothing.

"You need to tell someone about this Sakura! You need to!" Mr. Hatake started to yell as well.

"I'm not a victim of abuse! Okay! There! I'm not!" Picking her backpack off the floor, Sakura grabbed the door handle, turned it and left. Well, ran away.

...

...

...

...

School was terrible. Mr. Hatake had sent many notes to Sakura during the rest of the day, calling her into his classroom. Sakura just ignored them, crumpled them up and tossed them into the two feet tall trash cans there were in every classroom. Thankfully in school today there were many things that had to be done, so Sasuke couldn't ask her anything about why she wasn't in fifth. That would've been way to awkward for her to answer. It was three thirty when Sakura reached home. She had time.

...

...

...

...

Ate dinner, alone at seven. Took a shower at seven thirty. All of her homework was done, so she decided to read a book. Sakura loved to read. It was just like her writing. A world she could become lost in.

The only bad thing about reading for Sakura is that she always loses track of time.

Hearing the lock of the front door turn, Sakura's eyes immediately parted from the book and she looked over to the clock on her side table. It read "8:57". Oh god. Sakura closed her book and put it on her side table.

She could hear his footsteps on the stairs, he was going downstairs...where the bar was located. Sakura's knees brought themselves up to her chin, and her arms wrapped themselves around her knees. She started rocking back and forth.

'Here we go.'

All Sakura could do was wait, wait for the man and his lover to come into her room. To close the door. Take a chug, and bash it down.

"S-sakura!!!" Daddy called for her from downstairs. "S-s-sakura!!" Standing off her bed, she went downstairs...slowly. Reaching the bottom of the second flight of carpeted stairs, she peaked around the corner.

"Yes Daddy?" And there he stood. His jacket flung on the leather couch, his hair in all different directions and his lover to his lips. After he took his gulp he turned towards the sixteen year old. He smiled.

"S-s-sakura." He smiled again.

'What is going on?' Sakura watched as her father kept on smiling and walked towards her. He opened his left arm and engulfed her in a hug.

"My S-sakura. My beautif-ful Sakura." Sakura stood there, being hugged by him, so she hugged him back and whispered.

"Dad." Her father placed his chin on top of her head, his smile still present. He whispered.

"S-s-sakura. H-have you b-b-b-been a good girl?" Sakura nodded her head.

"Yes Daddy, I've been a good girl." He tightened his grip on her, it started to hurt. Sakura tried to wiggle her way out.

"Daddy, you're hurting me. I can't breathe." He kept his tight grip on her as he moved his head down to her ear. He whispered.

"S-s-sakura, why do you k-kept lying to m-m-m-me?" Sakura didn't know what he was talking about. "I-if you've b-b-b-been a good girl, then t-tell me w-w-w-w-why I got a call from your school tod-day? From your m-math teacher?" Sakura's eyes widened, she stopped struggling and cried.

'Daddy...,'

He raised his lover into the air.

'I'm sorry,'

And with much speed,

'But,'

and strength,

'I've been a bad girl.'

Crashed it into Sakura's head. Sakura feel to the floor as her father's grip released her. Her eyes were still open watching her father stand over her. He still had a smile on his face while he hit her, kicked her and bashed her. He left that night. Got into his car and drove away.

Sakura was laying there, blood soaking into the carpet, unable to move. She closed her eyes and cried. She was interrupted as the sound of a door opening echoed through the house.

'God he's back!' She continued to cry as she felt him stand over her again. But nothing came. No kicks, bashings, hits, nothing. All she felt was a hand reached under her head and left her up so she was leaning against something. Arms wrapped around her gently. Sakura opened her eyes and saw him.

It was Sasuke. He looked at her and whispered.

"I told you. I follow you where you go remember?" Sakura nodded and smiled. Tearing still rolling down her cheek. "No more lying. No more of this." Sakura closed her eyes the sound of Sasuke's heart beat. He whispered again.

"No sleeping Sakura. Not tonight love." Sasuke lifted her in his arms and carried her to her room. Tonight Sakura could sleep without fear.

One hell of a Monday.
