Chapter 2: I'm Not For Sale!

~*~Sakura POV~*~

I stood helplessly outside in the rain at the corner of a small market. I was wearing my old blue skirt and a rag up sweater. The hard rain splashed into my sensitive skin of my face and already made my hair soaked and wet. I was holding up a basket that had a towel over it so it could be protected from the rain. In front of a basket, there was a sign that say, "Apples For Sale!" If I sold all the apples in the basket, I will be able to help Touya pay some medical bills.

Unfortunately, I hadn't had any customers for the last five hours. The cold hard rain felt nothing to me now. My body was probably all frozen. And I felt very sleepy.

"Snap out of it Sakura!" I said to myself.

"I can't die now! Not until I sell all these apples!" Feeling really drowsy, my eyes started to close. I shook my head abruptly, waking myself up. But it was no use, my body felt really weak. I dropped my basket as my body collapsed onto the cold cement. Am I going to die like this? But I can't die now! I am only nineteen and hadn't got my first kiss! Feeling really reckless, I looked up and feel the rain fall upon me.

"My my my, look what I found." I heard a familiar voice above me. What is this strange feeling I was getting from this guy? His presence felt cold and dark. I wonder if he was….. A Death God! I heard about it once, a death god appear when a person are close to death. Does this mean he came here to take me away from his world?

"Go away! I'm not going to die!" I said, weakly.

"Looking at your pale face, I'll say you're ready to die" I heard him say. Why does his voice sound so familiar?

"Does this mean you're for sale?" he asked.

"What do you mean?" I asked

"This sign you have here, it says '-for sale.'" he explained. What was he talking about? I wonder, did my sign get torn up from the rain?

"Okay, I'll buy you" he said in a dark tone. Now I remember where I heard this voice. He's one of my roommates! Suddenly, he picked me up from the cold ground and carried me on his shoulder.

"W-wait!" I yelled out. I couldn't move my body freely since it was half frozen by the cold rain.

"Syaoran, put me down!" I finally called out his name. I only met him once and that was few days ago when I first met my roommates. I tried my best to avoid them, but thankfully I wasn't home most of the time since I was too busy trying to make some money. But why did I bump into him? Why of all people, him?

"Could you put me down? You got it all wrong! I was selling apples!" I explained to him.

"Strange, I didn't see any apples"

"It must have rolled away when I collapsed" I said. Wait a minute. I collapsed earlier and Syaoran is carrying me; this kind of feels like he is helping me out.

"Don't worry, I will pay you enough for your body worth" I heard him say. I wonder how much he will pay me… Snap out of it Sakura! I can't be manipulated by this person!

I finally holler out, "I'm not for sale!"

"We're here" he said. Already home? That was quick. The thought of being back home had made me feel calmed and relieved. It's good to be home. But something felt odd. Even though it was the home I always come to, today it felt different. It felt gloomy and sad. Syaoran carried me inside.

"What took you so long Syaoran? Did you bought some ice cream?" said Yue.

"Why would I buy ice cream for you" said Syaoran, annoyed. Syaoran set me down, making me stand on my feet. I felt a little dizzy from being upside down for quite a while.

"Sakura! You're finally home!" said Yue as he finally noticed my presence.

"Why are you both wet? Did you guys came together?" asked Yue, suspiciously

BAM! KABAM! BAM! Suddenly I heard the wall break into pieces.

"YOU DAMN BIRD!" I heard Eriol hollered out loud

"The Teddy-bear did it, not me!" said Takashi

"Who are you calling Teddy-bear?" yelled out Kero, angrily

"What now?" said Yue, annoyed

"Quiet!" shouted Syaoran out loud. Suddenly, the room got really silent the moment Syaoran yelled.

"I solved our problem" said Syaoran

"How so?" said Eriol

"I'm using the secret room with her" said Syaoran

"What?" I questioned, clueless

"Oh? How did that happen?" wondered Yue

"Wait you got it all wrong. He mistakenly thought I was on sale, but I wasn't on sale. You see, I was selling these apples-"

"You were on sale! Damn it, how could I miss this chance to buy her?" said Yue, disappointedly

"Does this mean Sakura belongs to Syaoran now?" wondered Takashi

"This means we each have our own rooms! Except for Syaoran because he will be sharing it with Sakura" said Kero

What was going on here? How can they just accept this situation so easily? I could feel my head getting lighter and lighter. My hair and my clothes were still wet from the rain. I couldn't help myself but to collapse onto the floor.

"Sakura!" I blinked a couple of times, trying to stay awake.

"What's happening to her?"

I could feel all five guy presence around me. I mustn't fall asleep. I slowly closed my eyes, feeling weak.

"She must be sick from the rain"

"Let's warm her up!"

"Watch out! You're going to fall on top of her!"

Silence

I slowly opened my eyes, trying to stay awake. Then a small water drop fell into my eyes. Was it raining again? Wait, I remember this scent. It's the same scent I smelt when Syaoran was carrying me earlier. He must be above me…

"Is this me or does this look like a bed scene?"

"You idiot! This is your fault!"

"I'm sorry!"

"Eriol can take Sakura to the hospital since he is the fastest"

"Leave me out of this"

"Lazy cat"

"Stupid wolf, why did you bring her back?"

"Like I said, I bought her"

"Please, Sakura needs us right now! Everybody give her our BODY HEAT!"

"Do you want your death bed rabbit?"

"No need to be mad Syaoran. I wouldn't mind if you cuddle her first."

BAM!KABAM!BAM!

I wonder what was going on. What is up with these animal nick names? I try to use all my strength to open my eyes, but it wouldn't matter as I wouldn't be able to see anything anyway. I slowly shut my eyes, drifting off to sleep.

And there goes another silly chapter~ Interested for more? Thanks for reading and reviewing~
