Went to my brother's auction today to realise that my dream of buying a 2 bedroom apartment at an auction is probably dead
#There were like five bidders - mostly young couples but also an elderly couple#All keen to purchase it around the 660k mark#it went up to 683 that was the price it sold for#There was an Asian lady there on the phone the whole time with earphones in and she would bid but then talk to whoever was on the phone#i want that#date me so that i can go to auctions but have the partner on the FaceTime call#we couldn't hear what the Asian lady's partner was saying but imagine it was either like GET IT GIRL GO HIGHER or babe we can't afford this#'babe come on we can do better just come hom---' SIX HUNDRED AND EIGHTY#my brother's apartment is brand new though they only bought it off the plan a few years ago#a 2 bedroom in an older apartment block would be more my price range#then you'd have to deal with mould issues and non functional elevators#it's a nice apartment I'm sure my brother and wife and Charlotte could've lived there had it just been the three of them#maybe#Charlotte might have been outgrowing it#can't wait till I'm a bidder and get a little gift from the agent and then get asked if they have my permission to sell#like mate you don't need permission#if so then no#soz#'house passed in because bidder refused to give permission'#i would have Alex on FaceTime just like 'babe the south east is dead come buy in the north'#One guy at the auction was bidding early and then the agent asked him if he wanted to go over the other guys and he's like no#and then around 680 (like 20k later) he's like 680!!!!! loud and strong#like mate you said no before#it's weird i remember when i was 9 and we sold Clairmont Avenue and we were giddy with excitement when the bidding went over 300k#and at today's auction I'm like thinking 'property in Melbourne for under a million???? yikes this is a loss'#but i think they sold it for more than they paid for#The agents were literally buzzing when WE'RE SELLING IT'S ON THE MARKET WE'RE SELLING#The excitement though!!!!!!#The agents just yelling WE'RE SELLING!!!!!!!

Too Late (kbtbb fic)
Summary: In an AU where MC (Sakurai Yuuki) helps all bidders but doesn’t start an immediate relationship with neither, she gets kidnapped by a very resourceful and strong Mafia. Are the bidders able to save her on time?   Genre: angst Masterpost
<-- Previous  Chapter 2  Next-->
It’s almost time for the Mad Hatter’s party to start and Yuuki is nowhere to be seen, Eisuke is getting impatient, and even though he has a huge crush on her (as well as all the other bidders) he’s so giving her a piece of his mind when he sees her for being late. “Boss, since Yuuki hasn’t arrived yet, what about you go ahead and check out the ‘party’ while I look for her” Baba suggests with his fedora on his hand, Ichinomiya thinks about it for a second, even though the ice dragons double checked everything and the IVC is going smoothly, he feels odd about the auction, the fact that Yuuki isn’t there yet make him even more anxious “Alright, tell me right away when she is with you” he orders “Got it boss” Baba answers to Eisuke before he disappears into the crowd to join the other bidders in the lounge.
“Eisuke! just in time, the girl we spoke of earlier is going to be the first item tonight!” Ota says in an interested mood “Any news on Sakurai?” Soryu asks the king, who only moves his head negatively  “She looks cute, I wish I have examined her” The artist comments in a meaningful tone “Should I bid on her?” “I thought you had your sights on Sakurai?” Eisuke side-glances him “I do... but with so much competition how can I even stand a chance?” Ota answers looking closely at the others’ expression, they all turn slightly pink “Well I hate to spoil your fun kid... but she has just been sold” Mamoru notices as he lighted up a cigarette  The girl is tied up, even her eyes are cover, yet, the bidders can feel as if she is looking straight to them, giving them chills as they remember how Yuuki was sold months ago, but none of them talks about it until a few hours later when Baba tells them that she isn’t in her room nor does she answers the phone, that’s when they snap
Yuuki’s POV
I open my eyes, the last thing I remember is to be on my way to the IVC, a cloth with a strange smell covered my mouth and nose, I think, I lost the conscience then. When I woke up I was tied up and two men were talking, I couldn’t hear what they were talking about, but I’m sure that’s not good at all, I tried to escape but I guess they tighten up the ropes because I felt a sharp pain on my wrist and when I tried again, I felt something liquid, blood maybe? My levels of anxiety grew even more when they put me an itchy black wig, I haven’t noticed before, but I was dressed up in a white simple dress, just like the first time I was sold, I felt humiliated and scared, the feeling just grew as they covered my eyes with a mask and as they put me inside a birdcage in front of a lot of people, I even recognize the Mad Hatter presenting ‘the item’ (me) and starting the bidding. I tried to get his attention but it was pointless, my hands, feet, and mouth were tied up, and he couldn’t see my eyes either, I tried to move again but the pain rose once more. I directed my face to the sponsor’s balcony but they weren’t there, so I saw to the point where I knew the cameras were, hoping they would notice it was me and stopped the auction... thing that, of course, didn’t happen; I tried to yell their names as the Mad Hatter call out the bidding and the men that trapped were dragging me to another room, I was still yelling when I felt a needle pierce my skin before I lost consciousness 
My eyes look all over the place ‘Where I am?’ I think with a twinge of fear, I’m still tied up, except for my eyes that are free now. ‘Breathe Yuuki, breathe’ I look around less anxious to discover that I’m in some sort of hotel room, at least that’s what it seems like, the walls are light red with decoration in gold, I have been situated on an uncomfortable couch in the middle of the room; there is a wooden door on one side of the suit and a king size bed on the other.  Minutes pass while I try to calm myself down and to relax my breaths until finally the door opens and an older man appears alongside with a, not as elderly, elegant woman, they both look at me, the man with lust in his eyes, which disgusts me, but she just... analyze me, or at least that’s how I feel it  “I told you she was a cutie, didn’t I?” The man asks with obvious excitement  “Well she is certainly not bad at all, but I think she is going to attract clients more for who she is than for her looks” her voice sounds cold and intimidating. A little tremor invades my hands.   “Well that’s true... a protected of Ichinomiya and Oh and the Ice Dragons, is nothing you can’t tell no to” My heart beat faster at the mention of both bidders... so they want me to get to them? that isn’t new per se, but there is something odd even for this. “You have her name?” The lady asks, but before the older man can answer she dismisses it “Never mind, we’ll give her a new one” ‘what? why would they give me another name?’  I'm scared and confused and even a part of my mind already knows what’s going to happen and it’s yelling at me with each passing second, I still refuse to believe it. “You already have a buyer?” The man looks surprised “Of course I do, the virgins always sell quickly, by the way... you are sure she is a virgin right?” the man smile as if he was waiting all this time for her to make that question, he looks at me in the eyes when he answers  “I had a doctor checked her in the way” ‘oh my God’, only for the conversation tears start flowing from my eyes, ‘What have they done to me?’ I feel sick and dirty and desperate “Good, I will ask someone to prepare her... her first client should be here in...” -she takes out a pocket watch and looks at it “Almost an hour now! As a token of my appreciation Mr. Kobe, you can choose any available girl, the service is on the house” She says as they go out of the room, but before going out, he looks at me and tells me “We’ll see each other later... little kitten” he licks his lips and my tears falls without my permission  ‘How can I escape from here?!’
